Nothing says Summerslam like squash matches + people doing things while it is summer!

From that show, we have the greatness that comes from Greg "The Hammer" Valentine vs. Hercules. Not the match itself, but the angle surrounding it. Valentine beat "Rugged" Ronnie Garvin in a retirement match, but Garvin's been showing up with other jobs in order to terrorize Valentine.

Here he is as a ring announcer.

Someone is the Smackdown thread mentioned this

After Punk leaves, I want comedy skits of the New Nexus unable to perform the most basic of functions without guidance. Like walking into doors in the arena.

There has been a lot of fantasy booking this week, but this is the best idea. Have them not be able to even dress themselves. They can come out with the tag titles upside down, with their boots unlaced and shirts inside out with both the head and one of the arms through the neck hole.

McGillicutty to be unable to perform basic speech, resorting to simply yelling 'MCGILLIFIBBLY' when asked questions, like a very special Pokemon.

Only the first 20 seconds or so are wrestling related. But hey, look what that Korean pop group member is holding!

I'm quoting myself to give this some context.

The Korean girl group who had the WWE spinner belt in their video above, had some signs pop up on the 7/1/2011 Smackdown. 3 different signs with Korean writing and drawings the band members on them appear during the Sin Cara vs. Christian match (CL’s banner shown at 3:46, Minzy’s banner shown at 7:17 and 9:49).

The Chigusa Nagayo/Dump Matsumoto hair vs. hair match is awesome and I never get tired of it. It's not a match that's a workrate classic or anything but it doesn't need to be. Dump was never a workrate machine but she was an absolutely fantastic monster heel who was able to look tough and look like a beast terrorizing all the faces. Chigusa was always fantastic at selling and being the beleaguered, sympathetic babyface. The post-match stuff is seriously awesome. Basically a longwinded way of saying here's Chigusa Nagayo vs. Dump Matsumoto, hair vs. hair.

Well, it makes the link between wrestling and greek theatre/morality tales more explicit. I like it, I;d take it over the Let the Bodies Hit the Floor theme from 2001. (it also gave us the visuals for Chritian's opera theme!)

Four years ago, there was a thread here about a N64 No Mercy mod called Summerslam 2007 that featured the full WWE roster of the time of release. To hype it, someone made this music video which is done in the style of the AKI game intros. There's a lot of edited animations that range from decently cool to glitchy and terrible, but I think it's fun to watch as a time capsule of that summer.
