Movie Reviews of WWE SummerSlam 2002
Movie Review: Best Summerslam ever
Summary: 5 Stars
While Summerslam is a pinnacle in WWE's PPV line-up, this one will probably stand out as one of the best of them. 2002 was the best year for WWE. Both Smackdown and Raw had the best talent in the world and equally balanced. I dont think 2002 WWE will ever be repeated.
Rey Mysterio VS Kurt Angle: An awesome match. Angle and Mysterio always put on the best show and this match was no different. Angle wins but Rey showed alot of guts.
Ric Flair VS Chris Jericho: I never knew i'd be so happy to see Jericho back in the WWE. Will it bring back fans? Probably not. Flair actully wins this match in a time where he lost mostly ever time he stepped in the ring. A great contest.
Edge Vs Eddie Guerrero: Not a fan of Edge or Guerrerro. Ive watched Guerrero's matches of late and learned to like the guy. Edge wins but this match wasnt much.
Lance Storm @ Christian VS Booker T @ Golddust: Decent tag match but nothing you wouldnt see on Raw.
Chris Benoit VS RVD: A rare match. Very good match and weird these two never again fought for the intercontinental title.
Undertaker VS Test: Filler. I found the ending to be stupid because after Test shoves the ref, he does not call for the bell. Sometimes they do, sometimes they dont. Taker wins with a tombstone for good ol USA
Shawn Michaels VS Triple H: I really liked the video package before the match. It was an amazing street fight and close to one of there best encounters. I found it annoying JR and The King kept on pointing out that Michaels had a broken back; HBK wins with a roll-up. Triple H sledgehammer shot at the end is sicking and beliveable. Funny how this one time match turned out to be five years running now for HBK. No complaining though, he is one of the greatest wrestlers ever.
The Rock VS Brock Lesnar: Where the Rock turns heel but then again, he does ditch WWE for Hollywood. A decent match with the outcome known before it was ever.
They also include Lesnar beating Hogan on Smackdown for an extra. A really good PPV and highly recommeded to any WWE fan.
Movie Review: Buy It plus great ppv!
Summary: 5 Stars
It is anwsome PPV also, it better than Summerslam '03
Here my favortie match list order.....
1st Kurt Angle vs. Rey, I loved it that was should be best match at 2002! I watch this at many time more like at 30 time. There has a many good spot. Kurt Angle win by Angle Lock on Rey's left Ankle. I like this better that HBK vs. HHH at street fight! 10/10
2nd WWE Championship Brock Lenaer vs. The Rock (champ), Again I loved it too! Also, I still like this better than HBK VS. HHH too. It was short match likes 7 minutes. At end, they keep break the finisher move at each other. At finally, Brock Lenaer doing the F-5 on The Rock then he pinned 1,2,& 3 then Brock Lenaer be at new Champioship. 10/10
3rd Street Fight Triple H vs. Shawn "HBK" Michael, I do like this match BUT it slow, long, tired, and bloody. But I still like it that is cool match! It already on the HBK DVD too. Here the weapson what they did used in it: ladder, table, chair, trash bin, steel stair, and sedlge. That was lot weaspon! HBK beat his own old friend Triple H! At end, triple H break Shawn Michael's neck by seldge! After that happened HBK was thrown to the hopitotal. 9/10 The Game are Over!
4th Intercontinental Championshin Raw vs. Smackdown! Rob Van Dam is Raw vs. Chris Benoit (champion) is Smackdown! I noticed that chris & RVD always do techlogoy wrestle at all time! Raw win to have a new champion! 8.8/10

Movie Review: The best WWE PPV of 2002 and the best SummerSlam ever!
Summary: 5 Stars
WWE SummerSlam 2002 has o be the best WWE PPV of 2002 easily and quite possibly the best SummerSlam ever. This certainly is along with WWF Royal Rumble 2000 is my favourite WWE PPV of all time. Providing commentary for the Raw brand matches is JR, Jim Ross and The King, Jerry Lawler. Providing commentary for the SmackDown! brand is Michael Cole and Tazz.
Kurt Angle VS Rey Myisterio ~ Fantastic, high flying fast paced action with a great in ring story being told and tremendous crowd reaction.
Chris Jericho VS Ric Flair ~ Good hard worked wrestling match form both Jericho and Flair with a really good controversial ending.
Edge VS Eddie Guerrero ~ Brilliant from top to bottom. Crowd excitement for Edge and great heat and ring psychology be Guerrero. A solid match up with two of WWE's up and comers.
WWE Tag Team Championships: Booker T and Goldust VS Lance Storm and Christian ~ Fast paced, exciting tag match. Great pops for Booker and "sick freak" and great heat for the Un-Americans.
Undertaker VS Test ~ Not like Taker and Test's usually snooze fests this is a good hard hitting, brawler match up. Focussed on the Un-American angle this turns out to be a very enjoyable match.
Inter-promotional Raw VS SmackDown! WWE Intercontinental Championship: Rob Van Dam VS Chris Benoit ~ This is just an amazing technical display with all of RVD's signatures this is a really, really good match.
Un Sanctioned match: Triple H VS Shawn Michaels ~ You have to see it to believe it. HBK after a 4 year broken back absence come back and shows why he is the Showstopa! This match will have you cringing every time Shawn bumps. A great match, a great triumph for Shawn, a great ending and great commentary from Jim Ross.
WWE Undisputed Championship: The Rock VS Brock Lesner ~ After a summer long of promoting Lesner the fans get the pay off with Rock VS Brock. A match of anticipation, power and the fans turning on the Rock!
WWE SummerSlam is a must buy for any WWE fan, trust me!
Movie Review: Best ppv of 2002!
Summary: 5 Stars
Match 1: Kurt Angle vs. Rey MysterioThis was a very good match. I was a little shocked it was the opener. Fast-paced action from both men witch ended with Kurt getting the win. 10/10
Match 2: Chris Jericho vs. Ric Flair
This match was very good and technical. Although they should have let Jericho win, it showed that Flair can still wrestle like he used to. Flair picks up the win with a figure 4. 10/10
Match 3: Edge vs. Eddie Guerrero
This was the second best match of the night! This match was very fast-paced and high flying. Both men really deliverd on this one. Edge comes out the victor. 10/10
Match 4: WWE Tag Team Championship:
Bokker T vs. (c's)Un-Americans( Lance Storm and Christian)
Goldust
This match was an ok match. I'm glad that wwe finally put people on ppvs that deserved to be on them. Lance Storm and Christian pick up the win with interference from Test. 7/10
Match 5: WWE Intercontinental Champioship:
Rob Van Dam vs. (c)Chris Benoit
This was the best match of the night!! This match had it all. Both men showed high flying and technical skills. In the end, Rob Van Dam gets the win with a Five-Star Frog Splash. 10/10
Match 6: Test vs. Undertaker
This was not really a bad match, but it was'nt great either. Test did a pretty good job of working with Taker. Taker gets the win with a Tombstone. 8/10
Match 7: Street Fight:
Shawn Michaels vs. Triple H
This was Shawn's first match back in 4 years! Shawn put on quite a show. Triple H worked really well also. This was one of the best street fights in a while. Shawn proved his career isn't over yet! Shawn gets the win with a pin with brige.
Match 8: WWE Championship:
(c)The Rock vs. Brock Lesnar
This was a pretty good match. Brock and Rock worked pretty well together. The WWE has handled Brock Lesnar's rise very well. Brock gets the win with an F-5. 10/10
Movie Review: Better Than the Biggest
Summary: 5 Stars
The 2002 card for SummerSlam was probably the greatest line-up in the event's history. And, the DVD was well packaged for its collectors. Of course, the highlight of the night was Shawn Michaels versus Triple H in a non-sanctioned street fight. There are extra features that build toward the match, including HBK's appearance on Byte This.In addition to that match, other classic matches include Kurt Angle and Rey Mysterio in the opening contest, Edge against Eddie Guerrero, and Rob Van Dam and Chris Benoit in a rare inter-brand encounter. (For those keeping count, note that the RAW roster won every inter-brand pay-per-view match in 2002.)
Don't discredit The Rock and Brock Lesnar's match, which as predictable as it may have been, served its purpose and marked a tremendous effort by both men. Likewise, the World Tag Team title match between champions Lance Storm & Christian against Booker T & Goldust was a great match. The remaining matches between Undertaker and Test, as well as Chris Jericho and Ric Flair would have looked better on a less-impressive card.
The extra features include a match between Brock Lesnar and Hollywood Hulk Hogan, and post-match interviews with Kurt Angle, Booker T & Goldust, Rob Van Dam, Eddie Guerrero, and new Undisputed WWE champion Brock Lesnar. It has a special (albeit useless) look at the making of the SummerSlam commercial, and the commercial itself.
This year was a rare occasion in which SummerSlam outshined WrestleMania, the Biggest Event of the Year. The only way this DVD would have been better was if they found a way to edit out the time-filler among Howard Finkel, Trish Stratus, and Lillian Garcia, or if they included the post-match promo The Rock cut. Regardless, this event was definitely a credit to the WWE record books.
