I can't believe u put Joe vs Lesnar vs reigns vs braun at the good category, That match was awesome

[@AWESOMElockdog]

[@elconcaro8031]

Yeah that match absolutely slapped

[@souravmallick7699]

Thats matter bro with people from people

[@markjagger2412]

Best match of that year for me along with AJ Styles vs John Cena at the Royal Rumble

[@zanethind]

Agreed. Literally the best match on that ppv and on that night. And is literally in a top 10 list for best Summerslam matches that Cultaholic did

[@Epic39Man]

The fatal 4 way Universal championship was in 2017 and Brock vs Roman was in 2018

[@gavinjohnson4010]

The Fatal Four Way Monster Mash was so fucking awesome though. I loved every second of it and I would have put it in HOF

[@elconcaro8031]

[@trulymario3462]

the fact that brock main event 9/20 summer slams is crazy

[@nisargkasturiwale3877]

remove summerslams from 2004-2011..that's 9/12 years he has been with the company crazy..

[@rollin7788]

brock is mr summerslam

[@JohnSmith-wh2ob]

I’ve accepted how absolutely fantastic Brock vs Cena was as a Cena fan growing up I realized as the years passed how brilliant it was. The fact that John Cena knew and agreed that we can’t waste beating the streak. Also if you compare it to other Cena matches you see just how versatile John’s matches were at Summerslam

[@Lindforce1]

Boggles my mind how Michaels Vs Hogan didn't go in the Hall of fame category that match is a masterpiece lmao

[@GageB10100]

It’s the Summerslam match I’ve revisited the most that’s for sure

Edge's best Hell in a Cell is probably with Seth at 2021 Crown Jewel. That was insanely 5/5

[@OrionAnderson-of6sl]

definitely agree with you

[@josesacote9628]

undertaker>

[@abhyanshsharma8019]

Totally agree

[@sarahfortune7760]

It's very good however, Edge's first is still his best imo

[@Mohitsarkar2006]

What about edge vs seth at summer slam 🤫🤫💀💀

[@kcsniper1243]

Im glad you gave Cena vs Lesnar the just do. It was short to the point. And in my opinion is the match the really put Brock over the most as a Monster. Him destroying Cena to this day makes him feel unstoppable.

[@shivanshpandey2834]

Hbk vs hogan lies in hall of fame, period 😂

[@aaankms4450]

The fact that about half of these matches contain Brock Lesnar is insane.

[@Meastroooo]

Summerslam is Brocks event, 9 Summerslam Main Events 6 of which in a row from 14-19

[@matttibos2562]

Crazy. He also technically closed the show in 21 too

[@2xyn798]

Edge vs Taker should be hall of fame their best match imo

He wasn’t watching wrestling at that time

[@ethanburdett2851]

It's from 2002 onwards. Undertaker v Undertaker was 1994

[@syednoorerasul]

The matchest match of all time

[@aguagio1188]

I really love that you put hardy vs punk in HoF

[@IamNster]

Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar 2022 was good mostly because of how batshit insane it was. Table spots, a near cash in spot, Brock bringing out a f*cking tractor! It was nowhere near the best wrestling match, but it got you so invested in its insanity that it didn't matter at all.

[@M1st3rJae1]

I was happy af when Orton hit the RKO

[@Sbournazian1]

Honestly hogan vs Shawn is good it’s just so funny and the match itself wasn’t even bad I thought it was decent then the overselling made it amazing

[@pleaseshutup7053]

Yeah Santi is trippin

[@sextonhardcastle1940]

Some of the overselling was dumb, just look how hbk got up and started swinging after getting the big boot

[@anjhontongo6945]

That fatal 4 way is so underrated by you so good

[@DaveCompton5150]

Ryback was the only member of the Nexus do do anything after their breakup? How about Heath Slater? He has kids!

[@Noahswrlds-NO1-Fan]

I loved using him in WWE 2K16

[@justinwilliams9262]

How about Daniel Bryan

[@varunedeo3693]

Love the sun and moon theme in the backround

[@farazalikhan5242]

Orton's 2016 Rematch is due He was busted open by The Beast when Brock was almost nearly unbeatable

[@prince_sach50]

2017 Main Event was epic. Braun vs Roman vs Joe vs Lesnar

I will forever remember Cena Lesnar I was a kid in my prime of WWE watching glued to the screen every night. I come check out what’s happening in WWE every now n then but idk nothing compares to 2004-2012 WWE era…golden age!

[@prestonkelly4232]

Great rankings

[@rockydarknight2980]

Brock Lesnar vs undertaker at 2015 was great. Undertaker tapping, the hilarious Brock undertaker laugh became a meme, the ending was epic. It work.

[@Delvokian]

I love that shawn wasnt taking Hogans shit and did that

[@liamgavin7211]

let’s go I’m so excited for 2023 summer slam

[@zerohcrows]

just watched the whole matt vs cm punk stuff, the match was insane, and the story was short but sweet. great choice 👏🏾

[@TheNatedog999]

I just looked up the very first SummerSlam and it dates back to 1988 so there's a lot more main events that aren't covered in this video

[@billybrown7460]

Love the HBK vs Hogan match it was great and still is it's entertaining as hell!!

[@whos-you]

the addition of undisputed to the wwe championship is the worst thing to happen to WWE since that cm punk john cena match

[@Surv1vor1993]

My top 3 SummerSlam main events (in no particular order) Hulk Hogan VS Shawn Michaels Brock Lesnar VS Roman Reigns VS Samoa Joe VS Braun Strowman Brock Lesnar VS John Cena

[@justingochioco1121]

I honestly felt the Braun vs Fiend match was really good at best as it does feature my favorite superstar Braun Strowman

[@shaggygaming4612]

Bruh more than half of the matches involve Brock😂😂. Man is truly Mr. Summerslam

[@g-016]

Hardy V Punk is goated. My favorite singles TLC

[@boy1da81]

Lesnar is Mr. Summerslam he has so many main events lmao

[@ka1eskards679]

Funny story I hadn’t watched wrestling since the mania where Cena beat JBL, last year I was walking around Nashville with my wife and saw a billboard for summerslam in a week. Looked saw $20 nosebleed seats so got them because why not? Been back watching ever since.

[@ksw9584]

Correction: the 2008 main event was not for the world heavyweight champion

[@wisyon1784]

The 2017 and 2018 one's are mixed but still great video!

[@jonjones18]

Cena vs dbryan Cena vs Lesnar These matches fans will never forget

[@melikaihsampson]

Hbk vs Hogan was GOATED

[@TheJuiceAlert]

Team WWE vs Team Nexus was NOT trash. What on earth is this man smoking? 😂😂😂

[@ThunderBlake]

Taker's win over Lesnar was to establish him as a heel of this feud + setup their 3rd match in Hell in a Cell

[@TheJuiceAlert]

PLEASE RANK EVERY SINGLE WRESTLEMANIA MAIN EVENT IN A KZbin VIDEO!

[@antoniomelucci7597]

I believe that John Cena vs Roman in 2021 was disappointed as a wrestling match, but the told their storyline very well outside ed inside the ring!

[@flamingblaze6165]

The cena return against roman as a whole was such an emotional rollercoaster the little kid in me was rooting for cena all the way but from a storytelling standpoint i like the results of it very mixed emotions 😭

[@Youngsickbacchus]

The fatal fourway for the universl championship was the first and last show I got to see and it really encapsulated everything about how I feel about WWE. My favorites put on the performance of their lives, I’m trying to ignore the rest of the crowd and root for Roman and then boom, Brock Lesnar

[@pleaseshutup7053]

Benoit vs orton will always be my favorite I was so mad at school the next day I was ready to fight. The second hhh put that thumb done gave me so much joy. Randy getting kicked out my favorite raw segment ever

[@impulsecdog4979]

Great list. Agreed with almost everything. Except the take about Brock and Roman at summerslam 2022 was their best match. Their WM 31 match was the best. Highly recommend anybody go back and watch it, it was brutal and then Seth cashed in? Chef kiss

[@comicsofzach]

Looking at this list. I see 7 Brock lesnar main events. IN A ROW

[@seankkg]

I had never seen Roman and Brock's 2022 match until a month ago and the last 10 minutes are so hilariously exciting.

[@macmocca]

I don't understand how this man remembers all of that, especially the one he witnessed in person in 2019. I was live at Money in The Bank a month ago and I don't remember it in details that clear.

[@Mr_NANT]

100% agree it should’ve been braun or samoa joe that won that the fatal 4 way

[@claytonjames1558]

Bray Wyatt and Curtis Axel were in Nexus man.

[@zanethind]

I get that HBK was imature for overselling but Hulk Hogan is to blame for the whole match being considered bad because of his super ego. But the overselling also made it pretty funny 😂😅

[@amandagrothmann308]

Also about the undertaker at summerslam they did the right thing taker getting the win. Lesnar beating the streak was absolutely ridiculous wasted his 21 wins. Something took place heading to mania with vince having lesnar end the streak which wasnt the original outcome to it. My guess heyman and lesnar had a role in vince having taker put lesnar over

[@TheJuiceAlert]

RANK EVERY SINGLE ROYAL RUMBLE MATCH!

[@BlastOffBobby]

I agree with almost every placement of every match here, only one I’d change is the Shawn and hogan match. That match is hall of fame for me, even if it’s for the wrong reasons. Lmfao I know it’s bad, but I can never not laugh at the selling any time I watch.

[@kyronabner1023]

Congrats on 60k subs

[@daviddoughtyjr648]

I know this is really random and off topic in a way, but does Santi use pokemon music as his background music? As a huge pokemon fan it sounds very similar to like a Sun and Moon pokemon music in the background. If so that's awesome I just think I noticed it today

[@matttibos2562]

The fatal 4 way match was AWESOME

[@dodimpiani6318]

And 2017

[@ngawangr5324]

Always saw summerslam as the #3 show. Royal rubble is definitely #2 no question. Most of the times it’s more interesting than WRESTLEMANIA itself, at least in the past decade. But I know kayfabe wise wrestlemania is the biggest show of the year for wwe and royal rumble is right below it. Summerslam is just the best show of the summer that’s all it was. It’s slightly higher than survivor series but once again even survivor series is way more entertaining than summerlam

[@therexman152]

Honestly you should put Cena vs. Reigns into the hall of fame category because of Brocks return afterwards. Just added so much more excitement
