Why's SummerSlam 92 The SummerSlam I Thought I'd Never See?

First Summerslam outside the US (and the only big 5 PPV in England).

It was likely mainly for it being in England. I think the fact that there was so many same alignment matches on the show with two face vs. face matches and one heel vs. heel match. It was very rare to have those back then so them doing three all on the same card was kind of surreal.

Not sure why they never went back to Wembley, I thought they drew a big crowd that night.

Because the Bulldog and Hawk got 'fooked.'

I think it was for the head-scratching attraction of Ric Flair flying to England and going out in his robe and ring gear even though he did not have a match on the card.

The location and the two main events. Admittedly, it’s not the best tag line.

You're gonna watch it whether you want to or not!

[Dean-o]

I always looked at it as the top 2 matches being a face vs. a face.

Probably a real hassle to get all their equipment out there (or rent it) and I'm not sure they were wild about doing a tape-delayed PPV. Triple H said it wasn't a big success, decades later, when asked about the possibility of doing another major PPV from England.

Because the live show to the show we got in the US took so long.
