I always liked 2002 and 1998. In 1998 we had some awesome matches like the Ladder Match Rock vs. HHH and Undertaker vs. Austin. I also liked X-Pac vs. Jarrett and New Age Outlaws vs. Mankind No DQ was good.
2002 almost every match was good. HBK made his in-ring return to a 5* match against HHH, Rock vs. Lesnar was good. Taker vs. Test was decent. Flair vs. Jericho was good. Rey Mysterio vs. Angle was a classic. Eddie vs. Edge was great. RVD vs. Benoit was fantastic. The whole card was amazing..

I agree with 2002 Summerslam, it was excellent. I really like parts of 90,91, 1nd 92. Bret Harts matches on 91 and 92 were great. Savage Warrior 2 in 92 was really good. People like to really dog the Warrior for being terrible, but he really did what needed to be done on all 3 of these Summerslams and a few Wrestlemania matches as well.

Sentimentally I would say 1998, mostly because it was the first WWF PPV I ordered, before then I always rented the tapes from the video store and I ordered the WCW shows. 98 was a turning point, and it helped start my love for Madison Square Garden.
When it comes to truly great event's it has to be 2002, for reason's already stated.

1994. Owen/Bret at its best. The Return of Taker. We found out who the Million Dollar Man had bought and it wasn't Luger. The opening tag match was good aswell.
Summerslam 1997 is a very close second. What a great event.

2001. Edge vs. Lance Storm, Rhyno vs. Chris Jericho, Jeff Hardy vs. Rob Van Dam, Steve Austin vs. Kurt Angle [With one of my favorite finishes ever.]

Summerslam 97' is my all time favorite. I am a huge Bret Hart fan so I was happy as hell that he was able to still compete in the WWF....only to leave three months later. That match is one of my all time favorites and to me its the best Summerslam Match Ever. So much drama. The Bulldog vs Shamrock was decent but should've been better. I loved when Shamrock flipped craplol. And you can't forget Owen vs Austin of course.

Summerslam 90 Its not the best but its my favorite. Being only 7 and a huge Warrior fan, seeing him and Rude in the cage with him keeping the belt was awesome. Having Kerry Von Erich RIP, who I had just met at my local town a year before, get the Intercontinental belt on the same night was a dream come true. As far as the card goes, Power & Glory VS Rockers was great I had never seen that angle before, Kerry Von Erich VS Mr. Perfect IC Title, the Hart Foundation VS Demolition in a 2 out of 3 falls for the Tag Titles, and Warrior VS Rude World Title Match were all cool for the time period it was.

1989 and 1990 are my top favorite two I could put them in and watch them at any given point.
1994 was the very first one I watched on PPV so that has some nostalgic feelings for myself.
I always thought 2002 was a very solid PPV as well.

Any SummerSlam from 1998 between 2002 would be a pick of mine.

Summerslam 89 was my all time favorite....I used to have it on VHS and I would watch it over and over and over being only 3 years old...I still stick it in the VCR every now and then just to relive all the great memories I have from that event....
