I thought it was one of the top 5 Summerslams of all time with 92, 02, 88 and 05

A very solid opener with Val and D'Lo, and for the most part, it only gets better from there.

I thought it was cool,
Val Venis vs D'lo Brown is cool Oddities vs Kaientai is a fun match X Pac vs Double J is surprisingly good (Probably because of Howard Finkel lol) HHH vs The Rock is outstanding Stone Cold vs Undertaker is a good main event.
In all, I enjoyed it

Very good show. Even the Kaientai/Oddities match was entertaining.

No love for Shamrock vs. Owen in here? That match was almost as good as the ladder match IMO.

Perfectly booked card, you had good stipulation matches, good wrestling, a comedy filler match, just great stuff. Everything was worthwhile.
Dlo vs Val Oddities vs Kaentai JJ vs Xpac in the hair match the mixed tag with Sable and Edge The Lions Den The Hardcore Tag Titles match The awesome ladder match and Taker vs Austin after months of build-up!
one of my favorite PPV's

I watched that show live with my buddies on PPV and I remember the HHH/Rock ladder match being awesome and the Kaientai/Oddities match being a fun comedy break

I still got a tape of the Sunday Night Heat right before it. It had that awesome hype video to "Highway to Hell" too.

Great matches Great intro Great theme(best theme ever used for a PPV IMO)
Summerslam '98 'Highway to Hell' was another staple of the Attitude era.

All the reasons I love 1998 WWF rolled into one show. Great PPV.

Wasn't this one of the first WWE PPVs to be released on DVD? I think it's pretty rare.
