Welcome to a Special Edition of Darren’s Win-Loss Column looking at 26 Years of SummerSlam. Thanks to the WWE Network and the vision of one Vincent Kennedy McMahon, we can relive history and watch all 26 previous SummerSlams. This same man had a vision 26 years ago to add to the already established WrestleMania, Survivor Series, & Royal Rumble Pay-Per-Views by having a Pay-Per-View in the summer, calling it SummerSlam. So, to celebrate this historic event, I have decided to do what I do in my normal column and keep track of every Slam match and participant and find out the ultimate win-loss records. Everyone knows that The Undertaker is 21-1 at WrestleMania, but this column will let you know who’s undefeated at SummerSlam, as well as other facts and stats that as Road Dogg Jesse James would say, “Oh You Didn’t Know?”
But first, some ground rules. Every match will count, no matter if it was a Dark Match, Pre-Show Match, or Kick Off Show Match. The only “match” that doesn’t count is the Diva Dodgeball from 2004, since it wasn’t a wrestling match. Also, all Battle Royals will count. For historical purposes, any Championship and event prior to 2002 will be listed as WWF and anything after 2002, when they got the F out, will be listed as WWE. Also, even though some people are erased from the official WWE history books, they will not be erased from mine. Every participant that has stepped foot in the ring on the Hottest Show of the Summer will be listed and counted. I will also have a separate Win-Loss Chart for Tag Teams as well as Women’s Wrestlers. Tag Teams listed are those that have only competed in 2-on-2 Matches or Handicap Matches, where there are 2 people on 1 side. Each tag team are also listed separately under each wrestler’s singles listing. Any wrestler that has competed under multiple gimmicks will be listed under the last gimmick used. Speaking of names, though he is referred to as Curt Hennig, he was always announced as only Mr. Perfect, so that’s what he will listed as here. The same as Road Dogg Jesse James. Only he called himself Jesse James, but he was announced as Road Dogg, so that is what he will be listed as here. This is the same for The Dragon for Ricky Steamboat, The Texas Tornado for Kerry Von Erich, & The British Bulldog for Davey Boy Smith. Though they all went by the latter, they were announced as the former during their matches.
I hope you enjoy this look at SummerSlam. When I did my viewing of SummerSlam for this column, I tweeted some more interesting facts. They were too numerous to post here. So, if you’re interesting in reading those, then please follow me @hbkid718. Thanks to Mike Johnson, Dave Scherer, and the rest of the guys at Pwinsider.com, for posting this. I also would like to thank the folks at profightdb.com for their results, as well as Graham Cawthorn of thehistoryofWWE.com, for his awesome recaps and results. And, finally I would like to thank the 265 performers who risked their lives competing at SummerSlam for our enjoyment in 235 matches and the creator himself, Vincent Kennedy McMahon for having the vision for not only this spectacle known as SummerSlam, but the WWE Network. Here’s to another 26 years of SummerSlam.
