I’ve accepted how absolutely fantastic Brock vs Cena was as a Cena fan growing up I realized as the years passed how brilliant it was. The fact that John Cena knew and agreed that we can’t waste beating the streak. Also if you compare it to other Cena matches you see just how versatile John’s matches were at Summerslam
Im glad you gave Cena vs Lesnar the just do. It was short to the point. And in my opinion is the match the really put Brock over the most as a Monster. Him destroying Cena to this day makes him feel unstoppable.
@@pleaseshutup7053 but shouldn't a Cena fan in hindsight appreciate Edge even more given that a face is nothing without a good heel and Edge was THE heel back then
Always saw summerslam as the #3 show. Royal rubble is definitely #2 no question. Most of the times it’s more interesting than WRESTLEMANIA itself, at least in the past decade. But I know kayfabe wise wrestlemania is the biggest show of the year for wwe and royal rumble is right below it. Summerslam is just the best show of the summer that’s all it was. It’s slightly higher than survivor series but once again even survivor series is way more entertaining than summerlam
Oh man, not even covering the amazing epic that was Undertaker v Undertaker....I saw it live and that was.....it was something. It was a match. I give it that.
Here are the SummerSlam main event matches from 1988-2001: *HALL OF FAME - The British Bulldog vs Bret Hart, WWE Intercontinental Championship, in Wembley Stadium in London, UK (1992) - Stone Cold Steve Austin vs The Undertaker (with Kane), WWE Championship (1998) *GREAT - Shawn Michaels (with Jose Lothario) vs Vader (with Jim Cornette), WWE Championship (1996) - The Undertaker vs Bret Hart, WWE Championship with Shawn Michaels as the Special Guest Referee - The Rock vs Kurt Angle vs Triple H (with Stephanie McMahon), Triple Threat Match for the WWE Championship (2000) - The Rock vs Booker T, World Heavyweight Championship (WCW Championship) (2001) *GOOD - The Mega Powers (Hulk Hogan and Macho Man Randy Savage) with Miss Elizabeth vs The Mega Bucks (The Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase Sr and Andre the Giant) with Virgil and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan with Jesse "The Body" Ventura as the Special Guest Referee (1988) - The Ultimate Warrior vs Ravishing Rick Rude, Steel Cage match for the WWE Championship (1990) - Team America (Hulk Hogan and The Ultimate Warrior) vs The Iraqi Triangle of Terror (Sgt. Slaughter, Iron Sheik a.k.a Col. Mustafa and General Adnan), 2 on 3 Handicap Match with Sid Justice as the Special Guest Referee (1991) - The Undertaker (with Paul Bearer) vs Fake Undertaker (with The Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase Sr.) (1994) - Mankind(Mick Foley) vs Stone Cold Steve Austin vs Triple H, Triple Threat Match for the WWE Championship with Jesse 'The Body" Ventura as the Special Guest Referee *MEH - Hulk Hogan and Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake with Miss Elizabeth vs Macho Man Randy Savage and Zeus with Sensational Sherri Martel (1989) *TRASH - Diesel vs King Mabel (with Sir Mo), WWE Championship (1995) - Yokozuna with Mr. Fuji and Jim Cornette vs Lex Luger, WWE Championship (1993)
I will forever remember Cena Lesnar I was a kid in my prime of WWE watching glued to the screen every night. I come check out what’s happening in WWE every now n then but idk nothing compares to 2004-2012 WWE era…golden age!
Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar 2022 was good mostly because of how batshit insane it was. Table spots, a near cash in spot, Brock bringing out a f*cking tractor! It was nowhere near the best wrestling match, but it got you so invested in its insanity that it didn't matter at all.
The fatal fourway for the universl championship was the first and last show I got to see and it really encapsulated everything about how I feel about WWE. My favorites put on the performance of their lives, I’m trying to ignore the rest of the crowd and root for Roman and then boom, Brock Lesnar
Funny story I hadn’t watched wrestling since the mania where Cena beat JBL, last year I was walking around Nashville with my wife and saw a billboard for summerslam in a week. Looked saw $20 nosebleed seats so got them because why not? Been back watching ever since.
My top 3 SummerSlam main events (in no particular order) Hulk Hogan VS Shawn Michaels Brock Lesnar VS Roman Reigns VS Samoa Joe VS Braun Strowman Brock Lesnar VS John Cena
I get that HBK was imature for overselling but Hulk Hogan is to blame for the whole match being considered bad because of his super ego. But the overselling also made it pretty funny 😂😅
Benoit vs orton will always be my favorite I was so mad at school the next day I was ready to fight. The second hhh put that thumb done gave me so much joy. Randy getting kicked out my favorite raw segment ever
Great list. Agreed with almost everything. Except the take about Brock and Roman at summerslam 2022 was their best match. Their WM 31 match was the best. Highly recommend anybody go back and watch it, it was brutal and then Seth cashed in? Chef kiss
Man Brock Lesnar have 9 consecutive main events on Summerslam is wild but you made a mistake Brock vs Roman was in 2018 and the fatal 4 away was in 2017
The cena return against roman as a whole was such an emotional rollercoaster the little kid in me was rooting for cena all the way but from a storytelling standpoint i like the results of it very mixed emotions 😭
I don't understand how this man remembers all of that, especially the one he witnessed in person in 2019. I was live at Money in The Bank a month ago and I don't remember it in details that clear.
I agree with almost every placement of every match here, only one I’d change is the Shawn and hogan match. That match is hall of fame for me, even if it’s for the wrong reasons. Lmfao I know it’s bad, but I can never not laugh at the selling any time I watch.
I know this is really random and off topic in a way, but does Santi use pokemon music as his background music? As a huge pokemon fan it sounds very similar to like a Sun and Moon pokemon music in the background. If so that's awesome I just think I noticed it today
Also about the undertaker at summerslam they did the right thing taker getting the win. Lesnar beating the streak was absolutely ridiculous wasted his 21 wins. Something took place heading to mania with vince having lesnar end the streak which wasnt the original outcome to it. My guess heyman and lesnar had a role in vince having taker put lesnar over
Bret Hart Vs British Bulldog Summerslam 92 @ Wembley Stadium for the Intercontinental Championship was/is/ always will be the GREATEST Summerslam main event EVER!
Tbh I slightly disagree with the Alberto punk take…taking the title off of red hot punk just made his win at survivor series that match better…it also gave us a in my opinion fantastic heel in del rio as champion for a little while
@@pleaseshutup7053 I'm not saying people were clamoring for another match, but his return was hype for the reason that literally nothing was leaked beforehand so his return being an actual surprise added to the night
@@therexman152 nah bro I swear you are confusing the cena return at mitb with the Brock return. The cena return was shocking. The Brock return was like wow another v reigns vs lesnar match
@@pleaseshutup7053 no I'm not both Cena's and Brock's returns were great, however there was rumors of Cena coming back. Not conclusive ones, but there was still some speculation. Brock's return was radio silent though
I’m going to guess you just forgot about the fatal four way match Cause that match was hall of fame Kaijus slamming into each other a super hot crowd That was easily HOF
I agree about the nexus except for people that had nothing going Just Gabriel great indie guy now sooo good Heath slater great rage champ and comedy gimmick and now great in impact Otunga potential ruined but was their ryback nahh Wade Barrett just booked wrong great commentator at least to
I can't believe u put Joe vs Lesnar vs reigns vs braun at the good category, That match was awesome
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Yeah that match absolutely slapped
Thats matter bro with people from people
Best match of that year for me along with AJ Styles vs John Cena at the Royal Rumble
Agreed. Literally the best match on that ppv and on that night. And is literally in a top 10 list for best Summerslam matches that Cultaholic did
The fatal 4 way Universal championship was in 2017 and Brock vs Roman was in 2018
Facts
The Fatal Four Way Monster Mash was so fucking awesome though. I loved every second of it and I would have put it in HOF
Same
the fact that brock main event 9/20 summer slams is crazy
remove summerslams from 2004-2011..that's 9/12 years he has been with the company crazy..
brock is mr summerslam
I’ve accepted how absolutely fantastic Brock vs Cena was as a Cena fan growing up I realized as the years passed how brilliant it was. The fact that John Cena knew and agreed that we can’t waste beating the streak. Also if you compare it to other Cena matches you see just how versatile John’s matches were at Summerslam
Boggles my mind how Michaels Vs Hogan didn't go in the Hall of fame category that match is a masterpiece lmao
It’s the Summerslam match I’ve revisited the most that’s for sure
Im glad you gave Cena vs Lesnar the just do. It was short to the point. And in my opinion is the match the really put Brock over the most as a Monster. Him destroying Cena to this day makes him feel unstoppable.
The fact that about half of these matches contain Brock Lesnar is insane.
Randy Orton
RKO
The Viper
@@pleaseshutup7053 THE APEXPREDATOR THE VIPEEEER THE LEGEND KILLER RANDYYY ORTONN
@@xiondFirstTHE APEXPREDATOR THE LEGEND KILLER THE VIPEEEER RANDYYY ORTONN
Also the third generation superstar
Hbk vs hogan lies in hall of fame, period 😂
Edge's best Hell in a Cell is probably with Seth at 2021 Crown Jewel. That was insanely 5/5
definitely agree with you
undertaker>
Totally agree
It's very good however, Edge's first is still his best imo
What about edge vs seth at summer slam 🤫🤫💀💀
I really love that you put hardy vs punk in HoF
Edge vs Taker should be hall of fame their best match imo
If you watch his videos you can tell he's not a big edge fan
@@lewiscraig6348makes sense a cena fan boy not being a fan of edge lol
@pleaseshutup7053 he probably still hate edge bc of what edge did to his childhood
😂 I still don't like edge but I respect edge as a legend
@@pleaseshutup7053 but shouldn't a Cena fan in hindsight appreciate Edge even more given that a face is nothing without a good heel and Edge was THE heel back then
@@syednoorerasul he traumatized seeing edge slap cena dad
Summerslam is Brocks event, 9 Summerslam Main Events 6 of which in a row from 14-19
Crazy. He also technically closed the show in 21 too
I was happy af when Orton hit the RKO

Love the sun and moon theme in the backround
Oh man, not even covering the amazing epic that was Undertaker v Undertaker....I saw it live and that was.....it was something. It was a match. I give it that.
He wasn’t watching wrestling at that time
It's from 2002 onwards. Undertaker v Undertaker was 1994
The matchest match of all time
That fatal 4 way is so underrated by you so good

Hardy V Punk is goated. My favorite singles TLC
I will forever remember Cena Lesnar I was a kid in my prime of WWE watching glued to the screen every night. I come check out what’s happening in WWE every now n then but idk nothing compares to 2004-2012 WWE era…golden age!
just watched the whole matt vs cm punk stuff, the match was insane, and the story was short but sweet. great choice 👏🏾
Honestly hogan vs Shawn is good it’s just so funny and the match itself wasn’t even bad I thought it was decent then the overselling made it amazing
Yeah Santi is trippin
Some of the overselling was dumb, just look how hbk got up and started swinging after getting the big boot
Brock Lesnar vs undertaker at 2015 was great. Undertaker tapping, the hilarious Brock undertaker laugh became a meme, the ending was epic. It work.
I love that shawn wasnt taking Hogans shit and did that
Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar 2022 was good mostly because of how batshit insane it was. Table spots, a near cash in spot, Brock bringing out a f*cking tractor! It was nowhere near the best wrestling match, but it got you so invested in its insanity that it didn't matter at all.
2017 Main Event was epic. Braun vs Roman vs Joe vs Lesnar
I just looked up the very first SummerSlam and it dates back to 1988 so there's a lot more main events that aren't covered in this video
Orton's 2016 Rematch is due
He was busted open by The Beast when Brock was almost nearly unbeatable
Today is my birthday and Santi made it so much better with this video
HBD 🎉🎉🎉🎉
@@The_Guy750thank you
Ryback was the only member of the Nexus do do anything after their breakup?
How about Heath Slater? He has kids!
I loved using him in WWE 2K16
How about Daniel Bryan
Great rankings
I had never seen Roman and Brock's 2022 match until a month ago and the last 10 minutes are so hilariously exciting.
I honestly felt the Braun vs Fiend match was really good at best as it does feature my favorite superstar Braun Strowman
The fatal fourway for the universl championship was the first and last show I got to see and it really encapsulated everything about how I feel about WWE. My favorites put on the performance of their lives, I’m trying to ignore the rest of the crowd and root for Roman and then boom, Brock Lesnar
Funny story I hadn’t watched wrestling since the mania where Cena beat JBL, last year I was walking around Nashville with my wife and saw a billboard for summerslam in a week. Looked saw $20 nosebleed seats so got them because why not? Been back watching ever since.
28:21 its over, the stre(ak)..... the the run of Roman , we all heared that with the voice of Michael Cole lol
My top 3 SummerSlam main events (in no particular order)
Hulk Hogan VS Shawn Michaels
Brock Lesnar VS Roman Reigns VS Samoa Joe VS Braun Strowman
Brock Lesnar VS John Cena
Congrats on 60k subs
Taker's win over Lesnar was to establish him as a heel of this feud + setup their 3rd match in Hell in a Cell
the addition of undisputed to the wwe championship is the worst thing to happen to WWE since that cm punk john cena match
I get that HBK was imature for overselling but Hulk Hogan is to blame for the whole match being considered bad because of his super ego. But the overselling also made it pretty funny 😂😅
Benoit vs orton will always be my favorite I was so mad at school the next day I was ready to fight. The second hhh put that thumb done gave me so much joy. Randy getting kicked out my favorite raw segment ever
Lesnar is Mr. Summerslam he has so many main events lmao
Love the HBK vs Hogan match it was great and still is it's entertaining as hell!!
I believe that John Cena vs Roman in 2021 was disappointed as a wrestling match, but the told their storyline very well outside ed inside the ring!
Fatal 4 way happened in 2017
Reigns vs Lesnar singles happened in 2018
Cena vs dbryan
Cena vs Lesnar
These matches fans will never forget
Great list. Agreed with almost everything. Except the take about Brock and Roman at summerslam 2022 was their best match. Their WM 31 match was the best. Highly recommend anybody go back and watch it, it was brutal and then Seth cashed in?
Chef kiss
First time seeing Santi with no Cena gear on 😂😅
Idk about you but if I was punched by hulk hogan I think I would fall down get up run around in a circle then fall and roll out of the ring. 5:05
The fatal 4 way match was AWESOME
Hbk vs Hogan was GOATED
PLEASE RANK EVERY SINGLE WRESTLEMANIA MAIN EVENT IN A RUclips VIDEO!
The 2017 and 2018 one's are mixed but still great video!
Bruh more than half of the matches involve Brock😂😂. Man is truly Mr. Summerslam
Man Brock Lesnar have 9 consecutive main events on Summerslam is wild but you made a mistake Brock vs Roman was in 2018 and the fatal 4 away was in 2017
The cena return against roman as a whole was such an emotional rollercoaster the little kid in me was rooting for cena all the way but from a storytelling standpoint i like the results of it very mixed emotions 😭
I need to go and rewatch every summer slam.
I don't understand how this man remembers all of that, especially the one he witnessed in person in 2019. I was live at Money in The Bank a month ago and I don't remember it in details that clear.

Elizabeth takes her skirt off great
I know this is really random and off topic in a way, but does Santi use pokemon music as his background music? As a huge pokemon fan it sounds very similar to like a Sun and Moon pokemon music in the background. If so that's awesome I just think I noticed it today
100% agree it should’ve been braun or samoa joe that won that the fatal 4 way
Team WWE vs Team Nexus was NOT trash. What on earth is this man smoking? 😂😂😂
Bray Wyatt and Curtis Axel were in Nexus man.
Also about the undertaker at summerslam they did the right thing taker getting the win. Lesnar beating the streak was absolutely ridiculous wasted his 21 wins. Something took place heading to mania with vince having lesnar end the streak which wasnt the original outcome to it. My guess heyman and lesnar had a role in vince having taker put lesnar over
Wow...i felt like this video was rating brock lesnar matches at summerslam😂
Bret Hart Vs British Bulldog Summerslam 92 @ Wembley Stadium for the Intercontinental Championship was/is/ always will be the GREATEST Summerslam main event EVER!
Correction: the 2008 main event was not for the world heavyweight champion
i think it was CM Punk vs JBL the world heavywhight championship match
Super agree with Jeff Hardy and CM Punk being on the Summerslam HOF!!❤ i still watch it till this day
Rank every 5v5 SS match
Joe should’ve won that fatal 4 way
Looking at this list. I see 7 Brock lesnar main events. IN A ROW
Just subbed.
Tbh I slightly disagree with the Alberto punk take…taking the title off of red hot punk just made his win at survivor series that match better…it also gave us a in my opinion fantastic heel in del rio as champion for a little while
Honestly you should put Cena vs. Reigns into the hall of fame category because of Brocks return afterwards. Just added so much more excitement

RANK EVERY SINGLE ROYAL RUMBLE MATCH!
Cena vs Orton at Summerslam 2007 was there best match ever
Put some respect on the vipers name
The Nexus losing will always be one of the worst decisions.
My mothers fave match is 2004 main event and you said it was a meh
Brock main evented 6 years in a row which is wild
My favourite Cena vs Randy is the Iron Man on Bragging Rights 2009
I’m going to guess you just forgot about the fatal four way match
Cause that match was hall of fame
Kaijus slamming into each other a super hot crowd
That was easily HOF
Just see how many main events brock in summer slam.
Super mario galaxy ost ❤
That said, as individuals except for Michael Tarver went on to have pretty long WWE careers for themselves.
I agree about the nexus except for people that had nothing going
Just Gabriel great indie guy now sooo good
Heath slater great rage champ and comedy gimmick and now great in impact
Otunga potential ruined but was their ryback nahh
Wade Barrett just booked wrong great commentator at least to
Bray Wyatt did rather a lot after the Nexus
I think u missed one
U skipped somewhere from 2002 to 2010
The fatal 4 way in 2017 was so good, I’d put it in the HoF tbh
Actually Roman vs Brock was 2018 before Leukemia and Roman vs Braun vs Joe vs Lesnar was 2017
Regarding the Nexus husky harris became Bray Wyatt
You mean Hogan did to Shawn what Shawn did to Brett i.e., screw him over? Hmmm, what a shame🤔
Bro i hear the pokemon sun and moon adventurer theme
