Raw sucked in 2002. SmackDown! Waz definitely the top A show. I feel Raw didn't get good in the Ruthless Agression Ara until summer 2003 after Kane had to take his mask off
AAAnderson055 How the fuck do u know he’s a Lesnar fan? Ur just assuming shit which makes u look so fucking stupid lmao. Nobody talked shit about you on here, if you had a bad day go punch your pillow buddy. Quit being a little bad boy and go to the corner to sit and think about what u said :)
1. Shawn Michaels 2. Star Studded Roster : 5-6 of the matchups were all main event worthy 3. One of the greatest opening matches of all time 4. Passing of the torch moment: Rock to Brock. Ruthless Agression Era!
Bro in the first 37 seconds you've already put me in a time warp back to 2002 you captured the feel and eveything straight away and presentation of this video is well detailed and on point big up!!!!
I wasn't watching in 2002, but I need to. It makes sense that 02 would be a great year with WWF acquiring WCW the year before. Having many great WCW wrestlers along with their own greats from the Attitude Era, it's a recipe for a great time. I stopped watching wrestling after WCW got bought out and started watching again in 2011. Needless to say, I have been very disappointed in the product. I was used to the Monday Night Wars time period. I missed out on the Ruthless Aggression Era, so I've been watching some stuff on the Network to catch up. I've thought about starting from the beginning and watching it all from 2001 to 2008, before the PG Era came along.
The years where HBK were inactive were the best years, because in these years the rock were active and the prime wrestler of the wwf, every year without hbk was a great year, research it if you don't believe me...
@AAAnderson055 yourre a god damn moron brock won the wwe title at least 3 times 4 if you count when he held it with the whc seriously you need to treated like ole yeller
This is beyond the shadow of a doubt the BEST Summerslam ever! I have the DVD for it and I’ve seen the whole thing twice now, it’s that fucking good. Mysterio vs Angle, RVD vs Benoit, Triple H vs Michaels, and Rock vs Brock are some of the best matches on the card, especially Triple H vs Michaels. Good video man, sucks WWE copyright claimed it but I at least got to see it full this time. Keep up the good work!
This is the best Summerslam of all time. For me there is no Summerslam that rivals it. Can we all agree Hollywood Rock was the best version of him? Especially him theme and promos
I really enjoyed this video. If you put out a couple of these out a week, I see no reason why you cannot do this full time professionally! You have a subscription from me!
I didnt get into wwe until around 2004/2005 but ive always been intrigued by the earlier years and after seein this vid I might have to go sit down and watch Summerslam 2002. Another great video man. Keep it up! =]
Honestly same, only coz I grew up watching the end of the ruthless aggression era and towards cena becoming THE guy but still. The older stuff looks so good
I love how you always start vids by telling us what was going on around the world first. Not only do you cater to my wrestling nostalgia but just my childhood period. Love your content!
Yup I remember my dad getting this PPV for my brother and I. I recorded it on vhs. I think my mom put it up somewhere after I moved out. I watched that tape over and over too lol.
The months in building storyline a couple months even beyond a couple months sometimes I loved how they would show previews of all the beef up until the match before the two wrestlers came to the ring shit used to get me so hype even for the matches I wasn’t excited about we really grew up on the freakin GOLDEN ERA 😭
This is a time in my life that I’ll always hold dear ! I was so young and growing up Shawn Michaels was my favourite wrestler, id watch all his matches from 96 to 98 on VHS religiously, after seeing him comeback and challenge triple h at summerslam it felt like the biggest miracle in the world ! I never thought I’d see him wrestle again and I had so many questions like if he’d even be able to wrestle properly again... Boy was I shocked ! Everything about that match was perfect The match itself, the build up, the commentary, just everything. I’ll never forget how truly hooked I was to wrestling and how it captured my imagination With this match/PPV Great times 🤘🏻
This channel is the shit. I love the background music too. Add that Human Nature instrumental by MJ for the Here Comes The Pain video. For the nostalgia
My favorite Summerslam of all time! 2002 was a legendary year for the company. I was also born the same week, the same night as the post-Summerslam Smackdown! episode.
I really enjoy your videos. Reminds me back when I loved wrestling not like over the past few years where it feels like we have to beg to be entertained
Love this guys videos. Also 100% with you on Kurt. Kurt much like Brett hart loved putting wrestlers over. Something a lot of other wrestlers just couldn’t do
What made Summerslam so special in 2002 is because there was so many new and fresh matches on the card, it was a stacked show from top to bottom witth so much star power. One of the main reasons me and my friend (RIP) watched this was mainly to see Shawn Michaels make his return to the ring to fight Triple H as we were big fans of D-X and couldn't wait to see what kind of match these two would have on PPV but it ended up with us enjoying the entire show. The main event with Brock Lesnar vs The Rock brought back memories for us from Survivor Series in 1996 when HBK got booed out of the building and Sycho Sid got massive cheers, i still remember Rock getting loud 'ROCKY SUCKS' chants during the match and Lesnar got huge 'LET'S GO LESNAR', it was a huge fight like atmosphere and a great rollercoaster. Summerslam 02 is not only my favourite one but i consider it to be the wwe's greatest one i have ever put out in the history of the event.
Omg finally someone has said it and I totally agree, SummerSlam was by far my favorite pay per view in 2002. Best matches I have seen in that year and I was 9 years old at the time, but I’m 27 now I really miss those times early 2000s just wish u can go back an see it again live on Pay Per View.
It's crazy how the body types change over the years back then people were cut. Now its diverse but people are more on the lean side. Way back in the day dad bodys were the thing.
This is the first PPV my Dad (also a huge wrestling fan at the time) let me stay up and watch from start to finish, which explains why HBK almost immediately became my fav wrestler. HBK vs. Triple H from this PPV is probably my favorite match of all-time.
I have seen the Rock v Lesnar match many times and personally I think that is THE best match of Brocks pro wrestling career bar none, but after having studied this card man this really was something special and I'm more an MMA fan than a wrestling fan. Too bad WWEs booking is nothing like this now because you will probably never see this kind of quality again or not in WWE anyway. Would of been nice if Brock had done what Rock did for him for Punk at Summerslam 11 years later.
"Old man HBK" Michaels is only 4 years older than Triple H. Triple H was 33 and Michaels was 37 when this match took place. I think it's funny how Michaels always got booked as "the old guy" against wrestlers who weren't even that much younger than he was. The same thing happened against Jericho where Chris Jericho would talk about how ancient HBK was during their feud...even though HBK is only 5 years older than Jericho is.
Would even go on to say that this is one of the Top 3 PPVs of all time, if not the best! And what to say about 2002, the best WWE year ever! No one comes close - Almost every PPV was magical and groundbreaking!
PLEASE WWE DONT COPYRIGHT ME THIS TIME😭😭😭, btw SummerSlam 2008 video coming soon👀
WrestlinGifs nice
'08 was the last ppv of the RUTHLESS AGGRESSION ERA
I ordered this pay-per-view as a kid at my friend's house and gave two shitz about their cable bill...lol
WrestlinGifs tbh I been passing your channel by but I seen this vid and I’m impressed 💪🏽
Raw sucked in 2002. SmackDown! Waz definitely the top A show. I feel Raw didn't get good in the Ruthless Agression Ara until summer 2003 after Kane had to take his mask off
This is the MOST underrated wrestling channel
AAAnderson055 whats wrong with you lmao
AAAnderson055 Heh. I don't know where you got that idea but whatever ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Keyboard warrior
AAAnderson055 How the fuck do u know he’s a Lesnar fan? Ur just assuming shit which makes u look so fucking stupid lmao. Nobody talked shit about you on here, if you had a bad day go punch your pillow buddy. Quit being a little bad boy and go to the corner to sit and think about what u said :)
AAAnderson055 translation:”HE HAS OPINIONS I HATE OPINIONS I HOPE HE GETS BEAT UP FOR HAVING OPINIONS”
AAAnderson055 Why didn’t u respond to me bitch? I wanna know your feeling about me being a “Lesnar fan”
1. Shawn Michaels
2. Star Studded Roster : 5-6 of the matchups were all main event worthy
3. One of the greatest opening matches of all time
4. Passing of the torch moment: Rock to Brock. Ruthless Agression Era!
"The WrestleMania of the summer" was better than that year's WrestleMania. Period.
M K oh he smoking good bud lol
@M K wm 18 wasn't bad. But it wasn't good either.. The highlight of the show was rock vs Hogan.
That pedigree from when HHH turned on HBK still looks crazy
Yeah he put some stank on that one he got some serious hangtime too😆
bruh always will be the best pedigree to me
@@mikejones11590 Tru before his knee got bad the pedigree use to be just str8 up disrespectful
Yeah i did that move irl on a friend and he got paralyzed for 6 months lol
idonteatcheetos you’re a piece of shit bud
Bro in the first 37 seconds you've already put me in a time warp back to 2002 you captured the feel and eveything straight away and presentation of this video is well detailed and on point big up!!!!

Its 1997 and 2002 for me
Still w/ a mixture of many bad decisions that made longtime fans tune out. **cough** Katie Vick **cough**
Birth of both TNA AND ROH also hell of a WWE Roster
The years where HBK were inactive were the best years, because in these years the rock were active and the prime wrestler of the wwf, every year without hbk was a great year, research it if you don't believe me...
Smackdown was golden in 2002
with heyman running it
Also you should definitely peep njpw
I actually always thought that Smackdown was always superior to Raw in my opinion
AAAnderson055
lol wrong. It's generally received as the best era of WWE next to the Attitude era. Get your hate boner for Lesnar out of here
ManWithoutMercy SD 2002-2003 is one of the best eras in my opinion
@@alfa01spotivo Don't forget the 80s Golden era. New Generation ain't bad either.
Hey try slowing down when you speak bro otherwise spectacular review of SS 2002!
Ramel Childs aha my bad bro, this was actually a older video but ya I’ve been told, I’m def going to try slowing down. Thank you bro🙏🏼
@AAAnderson055 go on then
AAAnderson055 Someone’s mad. Go cry 😢
Technically Brock is still the youngest WWE champ ever since Orton won the World Heavyweight champion not WWE champ and they’re 2 different belts
AAAnderson055 I'm pretty sure you only read the first line of that comment you idiot
@AAAnderson055 yourre a god damn moron brock won the wwe title at least 3 times 4 if you count when he held it with the whc seriously you need to treated like ole yeller
@AAAnderson055 bro wtf he was the wwe champion -.-
@AAAnderson055 Go to 5:11 you see brock being the WWE champion lmao
AAAnderson055 HE WAS THE WWE CHAMPION HES THE WWE CHAMPION RUGHT NOW DUMBASS
This is beyond the shadow of a doubt the BEST Summerslam ever! I have the DVD for it and I’ve seen the whole thing twice now, it’s that fucking good.

AAAnderson055 you’re a keyboard warrior Pussy dog, you ain’t shit fuckboy
This is the best Summerslam of all time. For me there is no Summerslam that rivals it.
Can we all agree Hollywood Rock was the best version of him? Especially him theme and promos
2013 definitely rivals it IMO
@@SchwartzCenter I'd like it more if some things did and didn't happen but i see ya
PAL YOU FORGOT 2010
WE GOT A HAPPY ENDING
Summer slam 2000 & 01 were good too
Summerslam 98 had more hype and financial success. They'll never come close to 700,000 buys ever again for a Summerslam.
I really enjoyed this video. If you put out a couple of these out a week, I see no reason why you cannot do this full time professionally! You have a subscription from me!
Top Hat Gaming Man oh man thank you sir, means a lot❤️
I didnt get into wwe until around 2004/2005 but ive always been intrigued by the earlier years and after seein this vid I might have to go sit down and watch Summerslam 2002.
Another great video man. Keep it up! =]
Honestly same, only coz I grew up watching the end of the ruthless aggression era and towards cena becoming THE guy but still. The older stuff looks so good
I'd go back to Jan 97 an up 😂😂😂
Just 2 Slick same here, can we all have a moment of silence for ourselves
@@1KQ_ Cena was the guy in like 2005 lol
1.The Return of the G.O.A.T (Shawn Micheals)
2. Brock win The Rock
3.The Greatest SummerSlam opener of all time
What made summerslam 2002 so good well just everything and the fact that this was tv14 and ruthless aggression ERA
I rewatched the whole video cause that’s how good it was
that 🔥 double kip-up from both Rock & Brock was probably my first proper "Mark" memory as a kid
This was the first PPV I ever saw. I became an HBK fan overnight.
shoot, RVD, throwback. He always reminded me of John claude van damme
Hence, the name.
I don't know why but everytime I hear JR going hard at Triple H in commentary, always puts a smile on my face.
Slow down some parts where you talk and this channel might blow up fast! Good work by the way.
I love how you always start vids by telling us what was going on around the world first. Not only do you cater to my wrestling nostalgia but just my childhood period. Love your content!
Nice vid, didn't lose focus the whole 15mins it was that entertaining
Glad to see this show getting its deserved props; I was on cloud nine after watching, for so many reasons. One of my all-time favorites.
Nice to see this video reuploaded. Cant wait for the summerslam 08 video
Thank you so much for working hard to let us relive these beautiful times. You definitely earned my sub I love you man!
Honestly this is the perfect wrestling channel. You manage to capture all my childhood memories and nostalgia in one video. Thank you.

Great times 🤘🏻
This channel is the shit. I love the background music too. Add that Human Nature instrumental by MJ for the Here Comes The Pain video. For the nostalgia
This is the greatest summerslam of all time & the goat Shawn Michaels delivered the greatest summerslam match ever
Man the only thing I miss from the games back then was NO DLC or release day Patches !!
Games use to be complete!!
If you really look at it this signaled the ending of the attitude era and the beginning of the ruthless aggression era.
Rey mysterio changed the game,when I was little I thought and still think he was awesome but he much slower but the 619 got better as he got older
Wow great work on these videos man keep it up!
I never noticed how long or short matches actually be you put me on bro!
It’s crazy seeing these guys so young and athletic times really fly
I see your channel blowing up REAL soon. Keep doing what you doing man ❤ love the vids
You’re the best and most underrated WWE TH-camr. No, scratch that! You’re the best sports entertainment TH-camr!
Great vid man! Definitely need to also go over why Survivor Series 2002 so special.
Mr. Inpact that’s def coming in the fall bro, right now I’m all in Summerslam mode 😂
Man great video.
This stuff takes me back good times in pro wrestling.
This card was loaded!! The good old days.
Goes to show when you put Paul Heyman incharge, you get a bette product
im so happy youtube randomily recommended me this at midnight
love ur videos bro keep going

Damn you reading like you in front of the classroom and you nervous as hell 💀💀
This was my favorite stage set. It was so 2000s, hands down the best Summer Slam.
I love your videos man mainly because you really know your knowledge about wwe like myself you are a true real fan.
2002 had the greatest summer slam of all time and the greatest survivor series of all time. Insane year
You know wrestling
We should start a pod cast
Love the GIFs, and the videos.
This was the prime of WWE. Yes obviously it’s scripted but it’s hella entertaining
Love this guys videos. Also 100% with you on Kurt. Kurt much like Brett hart loved putting wrestlers over. Something a lot of other wrestlers just couldn’t do

Rock vs Lesnar hype and return of hbk was the catalyst for this ppv
@AAAnderson055 huh
I still have the VHS tape of this PPV. This was the first PPV wwe had when i started watching as a kid.
Can taking a low blow from ric flair qualify as a childhood dream? Lol
I loved this Summer slam it’s my favorite one ever I miss that era of wrestling so much in 2002 I was 10 years old great memories and great video
sadly 2003 is when triple h began the worst title reign in company history
Pikachu agreed with that
GREAT VIDEO! Was definitely worth the wait.
VHS talk about kicking it old school lol
How can you miss the 10 star classic Testicles vs Biker Taker.
This show was great because it was booked well, something you seldom see today. Sadly, the HHH Reign Of Terror was soon to follow after this.
Omg finally someone has said it and I totally agree, SummerSlam was by far my favorite pay per view in 2002. Best matches I have seen in that year and I was 9 years old at the time, but I’m 27 now I really miss those times early 2000s just wish u can go back an see it again live on Pay Per View.

Jose Aguilera Paid in Full - Eric B and Rakim x Spider-Man, amazing profile picture bro
@@WrestlinGifs thanks
Can you do one if why Triple H and Undertaker matches were so special
Man you the future of wwe videos love your work
When you look at the roster, it was the craziest probably in the history of the wwe
0-100 in the background tho 💪🔥
My Favorite and the greatest year in WWE History.
Man, Evolution was the absolute faction of our generation
Ciampa vs Gargano is the closest we will every get to the perfection of Shawn vs Hunter
"People dying" 😂😂😂😂
"Old man HBK"

we're back boys
It was stacked to the brim
I hated when they split raw and smackdown....there was nothing like Monday night raw and smackdown on UPN Thursdays. Recap on Sunday night heat 👍.
Your videos are very good brother, just please slow down a little when you’re talking !!
Rich Garratt 100’% bro got it 🙏🏼
Felt bad saying that cus that’s literally the only thing I’d change, these videos are very very good, keep it up man 🙌🏻
Bro the way how brock lesnar is in the thumbnail is hilarious 🤣
Summerslam 2002 card was stacked af
mark my words brodie, this channel is finna blow the f up
happy 100k!
Hmmm how'd you forget to mention Taker vs Test... Un-American vs American Badass
The real start of the ruthless aggression era
Wrestlemania 17 and Summerslam 2002 are definitely classics and NXT Takeover events are always godlike
Would even go on to say that this is one of the Top 3 PPVs of all time, if not the best! And what to say about 2002, the best WWE year ever! No one comes close - Almost every PPV was magical and groundbreaking!
The arena was basically a smackdown arena
Do one for vengeance 2005, my first Ppv I ordered ,good times

This SummerSlam, still to this day, IS the best SummerSlam of all time.
My favorite summerslam of all time
that conspiracy theory was so accurate
you get it! awesome channel !
