This summer I'll be looking back on each of the previous Summerslam events, one by one. Every few days I will submit a new topic until we reach 2014's edition of the 2nd biggest brand in WWE.
This thread will be for discussing.... Summerslam 1991!
Summerslam 1991 took place on August 26, 1991. It was held at Madison Square Garden in New York, New York. Here are the results of the matches from this show:
0. Koko B. Ware defeated Kato in a singles match in the dark match (06:03)
1. The British Bulldog, Ricky Steamboat, and The Texas Tornado defeated The Warlord and Power and Glory (Paul Roma and Hercules) (with Slick) in a six-man tag team match (10:43)
2. Bret Hart defeated Mr. Perfect (c) (with The Coach) in a singles match for the WWF Intercontinental Championship (18:04)
3. The Natural Disasters (Earthquake and Typhoon) (with Jimmy Hart) defeated The Bushwhackers (Butch and Luke) (with André the Giant) in a tag team match (06:27)
4. Virgil defeated Ted DiBiase (c) (with Sensational Sherri) in a singles match for the Million Dollar Championship (13:11)

8. Hulk Hogan and The Ultimate Warrior defeated Sgt. Slaughter, Col. Mustafa, and General Adnan in a handicap match with Sid Justice as the special guest referee (12:40)
Now, here are some discussion questions concerning the event:
What was your favorite match on this show, and why did you like it the most? What about the worst match of this show, why did you like it the least?
If you could change a few things about Summerslam 1991, what would it be and why?
You may only use wrestlers who were available at the roster at that time or make changes that could have realistically taken place in August 1991. Please keep in mind the situations going into the show such as who could actually have been pushed into a title match, or what songs existed back then if you wanted to change the show's theme music, and so forth.
You may only discuss Summerslam 1991 in this thread. The remaining Summerslam events will be getting their own retrospective threads, any posts regarding other events will be considered spam and you risk getting an infraction.
