WCW The Great American Bash 1991
The Great American Bash (1991) took place on July 14, 1991 at the Baltimore Arena in Baltimore, Maryland. The card was originally to be highlighted by a Steel cage match between Ric Flair and Lex Luger for the WCW World title. Two weeks before the show, WCW Executive VP Jim Herd fired Flair over a contract dispute, stripping him of the title. Flair took possession of the WCW World title and brought it to the World Wrestling Federation with him. A new belt could not be readied in time for the event, so the company was forced to improvise. A Championship Wrestling title belt that was in the possession of Dusty Rhodes was used and a metal plate with "WCW World Heavyweight Champion" was attached to the front. The main event ended up being WCW US Champ Lex Luger vs Varry Windham for the WCW World Title. On the undercard was a match featuring Steve Austin & Terry Taylor versus Bobby Eaton & P.N. News in a Capture-The-Flag scaffold match, which was Austin's first PPV match.

1st Match: 1-2-3 Kid vs Hakushi. A fantastic opener, some great high flying, from guys that know how to work the crowd. Hakushi winning was a surprise, but a pleasant one. I wonder if he ever went on to better things in the company? Rating: 4/5 2nd Match: Bob Holly vs HHH. Wow, Hunter's first WWF PPV match. Going off his match against Alex Wright at Starrcade '94 you can see that he does have talent. It's not a perfect match, but he was a pretty good heel here with some good power moves and Holly did a good job of selling. Rating: 3.5/5 3rd Match: The Blu Brothers vs The Smoking Gunns. A decent tag team match, but nothing really special here. The ending is the only memorable thing here because The Gunns hit a Deat Sentence like AMW. Rating: 3/5 4th Match: Chris Candido vs Barry Horowitz. No idea who Barry is, but this match is pretty good. I know Candido was an athletic guy, but I know him more from TNA than anything else. Hakushi getting revenge on Candido from earlier in the night was pretty funny. Rating: 3.5/5 5th Match: Alundra Blayze vs Bertha Faye, WWF Women's Championship. I like Blayze, but I have no idea who Faye is, and after watching this match, I don't want to know anything else. Blayze tries to elevate the match, but it's too short and Faye can't wrestle, not a good match. Rating: 2/5 6th Match: Kama vs The Undertaker, Casket match. Another solid match, a good brawl that gives both guys a chance to show what they got. No outside interference aside from DiBiase either, which is nice to see. Rating: 3.5/5 7th Match: Bret Hart vs Isaac Yankem. This match is a little longer than it needs to be, and the ending sucks, but it's interesting to see Kane before he eventually became Kane. For a guy who's still green, he does an alright job here. I just wish Lawler would shut up and move on from this feud. Rating: 3.5/5 8th Match: Shawn Michaels vs Razor Ramon, Ladder match for the WWF Intercontinental Championship. So far, this is my pick for Match of the Year. It has all the greatness of their Ladder match at Wrestlemania X, but without the interference. Razor goes full heel mode here, destroying Michaels' leg in every way possible, and Michaels does a great job of selling as always. Some fantastic spots, and a surprising amount of brutality easily make this the match of the night. Rating: 5/5 9th Match: King Mabel vs Diesel, WWF Championship. A short match, but I imagine it has to do with them running short on time. Both guys do a good job with what they're given, but Mabel just wasn't main event material. I'll give 'em points for pushing new talent, but they could've done better for the main event for a flagship show. Rating: 3/5 Final Rating: 7 out of 10. A solid show with some great matches. Aside from the women's match, every match is at least watchable. A serious contender for PPV of the Year.

Triple H made his PPV debut, Barry Horowitz won a match, the artist later known as Big Daddy V had a title match and the Bret Hart/ Jerry Lawler and Undertaker/ Million Dollar Corporation raged on as Summerslam 1995, a bizarre PPV, took place in August 1995.Well we start things off with former ECW Champion Dean Douglas in his classroom telling us how superior he is intellectually to everyone else.From there it's time for some in ring action with 1-2-3 Kid taking on Hakushi. I'll be real honest and say I have no idea what the backstory was here, and after watching this entertaining opener, I didn't care. Hakushi won a good match.Next up we have Dok Hendrix interviewing King Mabel. I'd comment further except I couldn't understand a word either of them said.OK, now it's time for Triple H, or as he was then known, rich snob Hunter Hearst Helmsley to make his PPV debut against Bob "Sparkplug" Holly. Helmsley picked up a decisive victory in a short match which I guess was passable.This was followed by some tag team action (woohoo) as the Smoking Gunns (Bart and Billy) took on the the Blu Brothers (Jacob and Eli). This is another short nothing match, won by the Gunns. Bart and Billy were a pretty decent tag team.This was followed by a grudge match between Barry Horowitz and Skip. The story here is that Horowitz had never won a match in his long WWE career, but in the lead up to Summerslam 1995, he had captalised on a distraction to pin Skip. Skip, humiliated, sought revenge here and didn't get it. Skip did a good job of playing an arrogant jerk, Horowitz did a good job of looking like an underdog and this was probably the best match we'd seen so far all night.But don't get too happy, because now we're back in Dean Douglas' classroom with the Dean explaining to us just why Skip lost.Next is another short match with limited build as Alundra Blayze defeated Bertha Faye to retain the WWE Women's Championship. Some time around now, Blayze went to rival wrestling company WCW, taking the Women's Championship belt with her and throwing it in the bin, where WWE left it for a few years.OK, now we get to see the Undertajer extract some revenge on the Million Dollar Corporation and more specifically Kama. Undertaker had spent the early part of the year feuding with various members of the MDC, but at Wrestlemania, Kama had stolen the Undertaker's urn. Since then he'd melted the urn down and was now wearing it as a gold necklace. In a fun casket match, the Undertaker kicked Kama's butt. Not a technical masterpiece, but who cares? Next up it was time for Bret Hart to continue his rivalry with Jerry Lawler, taking on Lawler's evil dentist Isaac Yankem (who would go on to become Kane). They have a long ass match for what it is and Lawler interferes with Hart winning by DQ after Lawler pulled him by the hair and then made sure his head was caught in between the ropes. Hart was knocked out by assault and needed assistance to leave the room. This was not that bad.This brings us to the best match of the night and one of the best at any Summerslam as Razor Ramon put his Intercontinental Championship on the line against Shawn Micheals in a ladder match. They were very honest in the build up here. They'd had a really good ladder match at Wrestlemania X and so were having another one here. Shawn Micheals got the win, though he seemed to have some trouble getting the belt down, falling to the floor without a couple of times before finally snatching it for the win.Dean Douglas gets put in his place finally.The main event saw Diesel defeat King Mabel in a poor match to retain the WWE Championship.So there you have it. Some good matches, some bad, some average and overall a bizarre night. Not the best Summerslam, but not the worst either.

Match 1: Hakushi vs 1-2-3 KidGood match, which was highlighted by an amazing dive of hakushi. (which is called a "Space Flying Tiger Drop" if i'm not mistaken) 7/10Match 2: Hunter Hearst Helmsley vs Bob HollyThe 2 Royal Rumble 2004 main eventers square off! Well, not that it was something special back in 1995. Boring match with an HHH that looks quite different from today's HHH. 5/10Match 3: Smoking Gunns vs Blu BrothersThese 2 teams could not interest me for 1 minute. 3/10Match 4: Barry Horowitz vs SkipPretty good wrestling, with some decent heat of the fans in the arena. 6/10Match 5: Alundra Blayze vs Bertha Faye (Women's Title)FAST FORWARD!!!!!!!!!!!! 1/10Match 6: Undertaker vs Kama (Casket Match)Some slow offence by both and a couple of nice casket spots. Runs a bit too long, but still is decent. 6/10Match 7: Bret Hart vs Isaac Yankem DDSIsaac today is more known as Kane. This match did nothing for me, even though Bret Hart is in it. (My fav wrestler of all-time) It's slow and sloppy. 4/10match 8: Shawn Michaels vs Razor Ramon (IC Title/Ladder Match)Off Course the rematch of their WM 10 classic, and again they don't dissapoint. Some sick spots during the match, and a good pace makes it one hell of a ladder match. Not as good as the WM match though, but still rockin. 9.5/10match 9: Diesel vs Mabel (WWF Title)Worst title match ever on PPV, nuff said! 2/10Overall: Good ladder match, some decent wrestling (although never really interesting), and the rest is crap. Ladder match saves it for the most part, but not in a big way so it's 5.5/10

At WrestleMania X in March 1994, Shawn Michaels and Razor Ramon put on one of the most impressive displays of athleticism in WWE history with their incredible ladder match. A year and a half later at SummerSlam 1995, the two fought in another epic ladder match -- and somehow managed to outdo their WrestleMania performance! HBK won the clash at SummerSlam '95. The main event at SummerSlam 1995 pitted WWE Champion Diesel against the 1995 King of the Ring, Mabel. In the end, "Big Daddy Cool" retained his title. Also at SummerSlam 1995, Triple H defeated Hardcore Holly!
