Guest HartFan86 Report post Posted August 15, 2002 If you get Summerslam, what 3 reasons are you getting it for (1 - Biggest Reason, 2 - Somewhat Big, 3 - Big) 1. Benoit vs. RVD 2. HBK vs. HHH (I want to see what HBK is like after 4 years without a match on WWF tv.) 3 - Tied: Angle vs. Rey (Sounds like a really cool clash of styles) and Brock vs. Rock (If he does the SSP, I want to see it live on PPV.) I'm just intrested in what your motives are for watching the PPV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted August 15, 2002 Yep- My last night in the US is gonna be spent with my friends watching SummSlam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest buffybeast Report post Posted August 15, 2002 The card overall looks very good. But I especially want to see what HBK looks like in the ring against HHH. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Hitman Jebus Report post Posted August 15, 2002 It's free at the pool hall so...yeah I watch every PPV Although, sometimes we don't feel like going (noisy crowd) so we just order it and split the cost which is like 5 bucks...so no big deal. I watch every PPV but SSlam looks decent and gets my "must get" vote for the exact reasons (in order) stated by BretHart4Ever Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Youth N Asia Report post Posted August 15, 2002 Nah...$35 has jst gotten to be too much for a ppv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TestKick Report post Posted August 15, 2002 No big reason that I want to watch SummerSlam... I'll probably go watch it at sports bar. I wouldn't spend $35 for it. I'm kinda interested in Test-Taker. Angle-Rey will probably be good... but it will have the same feeling as a TV match. Benoit-RVD I've already seen on Raw, and I don't think they can do much better. HHH-HBK, I have no interest in. Rock-Brock, no interest... except the hope that Brock finally does something to spark my interest. Jericho-Flair, bleh. This seems like another ho-hum PPV. Oh well.

Guest Bricks Report post Posted August 15, 2002 Yup. SummerSlam has a pretty good streak dating back since 1996 for at least being decent. With Flair/Jericho, Benoit/RVD, and Angle/Rey, I think I'll be happy. Heck, I think Rock/Brock could be a nice brawl... or am I just too optimistic there.

Guest Anglesault Report post Posted August 15, 2002 I know someone who gets free PPV. I'll watch it to see Rey/Angle and to see if Brock gets the Mable reaction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Psycho Diablo Report post Posted August 15, 2002 No..I'm not. I'll go to a friend's place (who has scramblevision) but I'm not buying it simply because the fact Lesnar's winning the belt. Sorry, WWE. No buisness here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest notJames Report post Posted August 15, 2002 I also get the $5 "split-the-cost-with-friends" treatment with every PPV, so even if they suck, it's only $5. Plus I can hang with friends who I don't see otherwise. But I am looking forward to the majority of the matches... yes, even Brock/Rock. Even though the push may not be warranted by most, I like what he's done so far and what he may accomplish in the future. And no Hogan! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Angle-plex Report post Posted August 15, 2002 Are you getting Summerslam?, Yes. If so, why? Test vs The Undertaker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest SlowChemical6 Report post Posted August 15, 2002 I am going to SummerSlam. Why? 1. It's SummerSlam. 2. The return of HBK 3. Brock vs. Rock And of course, the kick-ass undercard. GO TEST GO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest chirs3 Report post Posted August 15, 2002 Yep. First WWE PPV I'll be ordering since St. Valentine's Day Massacre way back in '99. Why? RVD/Benoit, Jericho/Flair, Rey/Angle, BookDust/UnAmericans... the rest of the card I'm indifferent to, at the moment... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest papacita Report post Posted August 15, 2002 HBK's coming back, and I NEVER miss a SummerSlam, so YES! I'm ordering. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest SlowChemical6 Report post Posted August 15, 2002 You mean you didn't even order WrestleMania X-7?? What's wrong with you?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BigTim2002 Report post Posted August 15, 2002 Buy WM X-7 on DVD, now, or evil looking Midgets from Uzbekistan will come and kick your ass. But seriously, if I do, it's ALL because of RVD/Benoit. Don't you DARE tell me Benoit can't get a ***** match out of Rob. In my opinion, RVD might just make us all go crazy, by wrestling a good match. Oh, and if Brock does the SSP, I will shit my pants and call Billy Kidman personally to tell him he is out of a job.

Guest I Fear Hogans Air Guitair Report post Posted August 15, 2002 RVD VS BENIOT is the reason i am watching Summerslam also HBK Return. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest SlowChemical6 Report post Posted August 15, 2002 I think Brock is gonna turn it up at SummerSlam. One, he's gonna have to wrestle for 20 minutes. Two, it's SummerSlam and he's facing The Rock. Three, he's gonna have to give the performance of his lifetime to prove himself to the fans...if he is indeed being given the gold. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest NoCalMike Report post Posted August 15, 2002 Well I am not getting/ordering Summerslam, however once AGAIN I will be at the sportsbar watching the show while knocking back a few and chowing down on some garlic fries~! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest chirs3 Report post Posted August 15, 2002 You mean you didn't even order WrestleMania X-7?? What's wrong with you?? Understand that it was a "Couldn't order", not "Wouldn't order". I had a friend with PPV Capabilities, and got RR99 and SVDM99 from him. Then his family ditched the package. We just moved to a new house and got digital cable, so we're up again for it. It's not like I CHOSE not to order any more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest SlowChemical6 Report post Posted August 15, 2002 What if Test actually WON? The Internet fans' heads would explode. You know how everybody is worried about the WWE not being able to fill up a domed stadium for WrestleMania X9? I have a simple solution. Book it at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, then have Test pin Kurt Angle clean with the Big Boot. Then they can move it to the Staples Center for security reasons, a.k.a. out of fear that Anglesault will bring a sniper rifle to the show and attempt to assassinate Test and avenge his Olympic hero's job.

Agent_Bond34 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2002 Test vs The Undertaker I hope that's not your main reason for ordering Summerslam. As for the topic itself, I won't be ordering Summerslam, mostly because I don't have the money to shell out to order it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest SlowChemical6 Report post Posted August 15, 2002 I consider Test vs. The Undertaker to be the cherry on the sundae. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Jobber of the Week Report post Posted August 15, 2002 We need someone to "get the hookup" and help people over Private Message... If anyone gets the drift and remembers Vengenance, they might remember what I'm talking about here. Won't be me though, since I'm ordering and recording it on my Tivo. If Unforgiven is a sub-par card, I'll take that one, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest AlwaysPissedOff Report post Posted August 15, 2002 Eh, I'll be watching it at Hooters and taping it off of free DirecTV. Card looks pretty good, but I'm NEVER motivated for an RVD match, so that's really not my main reason for watching. Angle/Rey may be good depending on how they decide to work the match with the styles involved and I'm curious about the Rock/Brock match, to say the least.
