VHS Movie Reviews of Summerslam 1991
Movie Review: A Match Made In Heaven & A Match Made In Hell
Summary: 4 Stars
This was the first SummerSlam I remember seeing (to the point that I still have the tape over 15 years later) and this was without one of the best SummerSlam's of all time to this day...which WWF (it sounds weird to say that these days). It had it something for everyone here.
The Dragon (Ricky Steamboat), Texas Tornado (Kerry Von Erich), and British Bulldog (Davey Boy Smith) vs. Warlord and Power & Glory - This was just a good average opener to get the crowd warmed up. Besides the fact that it was the first time I remember seeing these three legends team up along with the fact that this was Steamboat's only PPV appearence during his second run in WWF...nothing else really memorable here.
Intercontinental Champion Mr. Perfect vs. Bret Hart - This is a pure wrestling fans dream here and tons of credit here goes to Mr. Perfect for putting on this type of performance with a back injury that would keep him out of the ring for over a year. This would be the match that put Bret Hart on the map as a solo star after being a tag team specialist for over 5 years. This was also the debut of the Sharpshooter...that Bret admitted was taught to him by mexican superstar Konnan. Match of the night & thank goodness that Bret picked this match for his DVD set.
(Also available on Bret Hart's "Best There Is, Best There Was, Best There Ever Will Be" DVD set)
Bushwackers vs. Natural Disasters - Besides the fact that this was Andre The Giant's last appearence on PPV before his passing, this was just a squash match to cool the crowd off before the next big match.
Million $ Champion Ted Dibiase vs. Virgil - Just like how Virgil was impressive at WrestleMania, he continued to impress here in this match. Either that or Dibiase is a very underrated performer who can make his opposition look like a million bucks (no pun intended). Either way, it was a match that was better than expected with Virgil finally getting the victory & redemption over his ex-boss at the time.
Jailhouse Match: Big Boss Man vs. Mountie - The match itself was short & sweet but also enjoyable but it was the skits they kept doing with the Mountie all night were so comedic that to this day, I still laugh everytime I see them.
Street Fight Match: Tag Team Champions Nasty Boys vs. Legion Of Doom - Another match that was short & sweet and enjoyable. It wasn't a weapons spotfest but a big brawl that was very well planned out & giving us a historcal finish with the L.O.D./Road Warriors becoming the first & only team to hold all the championship of all the major fedeations at that time.
(Also avaiable on Road Warriors DVD)
Greg "The Hammer" Valentine vs. I.R.S. - Just a filler match, nothing memorable here.
Hulk Hogan & Ultimate Warrior vs. Sgt. Slaughter, Gen. Adnan, Col. Mustafa w/Sid Justice as the special referee - This was a fun match to watch as everyone's effort here put together a good matchup and the whole mystery surrounding what Sid would do added to the match as well. However, this match will probably be more famous for what happened backstage between Warrior & Vince McMahon than the match itself which again, was a good fun match to watch.
The Wedding Of Ms. Elizabeth & "Macho Man" Randy Savage - Unlike all weddings in WWF/E today where they end up having a storyline twist to them, this didn't & came off very classy so that Savage & Elizabeth (who were married in real life) and now acknowledge in public that they are married. This was one of the most (if not THE MOST) classiest moments in the history of the company.
However, the wedding reception (which was a home video exclusive) aftermath had Jake "The Snake" Roberts & Undertaker crash the party before being ran off by Sid Justice.
Overall, this again I'll say was one of the best SummerSlam's of all time as the pointless matches were really quick & the rest of the card had something for everyone: pure wrestling, brawls, entertainment, ect. I recommend this tape.
