Fully Loaded.
Honestly, Summer of 1998 WWE was really good.

Fully Loaded, I didn't think it was the greatest card on paper but as others said, WWE in 98 was so hot.
If WCW had seen sense and did Hogan VS Goldberg instead of Nitro, then I would have gone for that

Summerslam. The lead up to the PPV was pretty strongly promoted, and young me got nothing out of the Jay Leno WCW stuff.

I usually liked the Road Wild shows due to the unique set-up, at least until I got older and learned that the non-white wrestlers apparently got a lot of racist reactions from some of the bikers, but for this one it's Summerslam. Summerslam 98 is one of the best built PPVs of all time. The hype was through the roof.

Summerslam by a mile. Where the hell was goldberg for the road wild ppv?! In the nWo invitational battle royal. Also in that match: Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Lex Luger, Sting, and the Giant. Some other guys too, but mostly that. Oh, and Summerslam.

I know it ended up being famously bad but I would have fell for the hype of that war games match so Fall Brawl.

I would've picked Fall Brawl at the time, despite the fact that it ended up being an awful show.

In Your House but it's a closer decision.
If they had done a traditional War Games Match instead of 3 teams of 3 but it's every man for himself, then I would have gone for Fall Brawl.
Whilst Breakdown's undercard wasn't anything special and I didn't really like The Undertaker doing Mr. McMahon's bidding, WWE was riding such a wave of momentum and I could buy into Mr. McMahon being desperate to cost Austin the championship to make that show I chose.
