I agree with everything posted. I think Flair VS. Foley in 2006 was way better than it had any right to be; And there was (at one point) legit beef between the two that made this a bit edgy. I think I'll watch it tonight & delete this if it's a true clunker..... but I recall enjoying the heck out of it! *EDIT - Okay I just watched this again.... Flair/Steamboat, this AIN'T..... but it was a good story. By this time (2006) I had grown really tired of Comedian/Teddy Bear Mick Foley..... this was the return of the sadistic Cactus Jack. Foley laid into Flair hardcore-style, & Flair (as Flair always did) took every bit of it.... add in some drama with Melina and you have a nice little hardcore/blood/drama/story here. Good stuff that we really don't get anymore. Another forgotten Summerslam Moment: "Don't you just love the way leather feels against your body?" My brothers and I were juveniles and laughed about this for YEARS.....

When someone says SummerSlam, in my mind Rock vs. Brock 02’ is the first thing I think about.

I think those two guys worked great together and the crowd was ready for that title change. I wish WWE would pull the trigger quicker on young stars instead of beating them for constantly and making them feel as irrelevant as the next man. That said, kinda hard to get the title on a younger guy when it’s been held hostage for 3 years

I personally love Cowboy Brock, but OG Brock will always be my favorite.

Bret vs Owen in the steel cage is one of my alltime favorites. Bulldog returning was such a special moment back than. Really grateful for having been around and a wrestling fan in that era.
Speaking of The British Bulldog - Bret vs Davey in 1992 was fantastic aswell. Looking back this was the time when I statted watching wrestling and I missed this by a few weeks. I was surprised seeing Bulldog turning up at WCW shortly after… today we know why…
Undertaker vs Undertaker was also a very special event.
