10 Biggest WTF Moments In WWE SummerSlam History
9. Lex Luger Celebrates Not Winning The Title
Babyfaces are so f*****g stupid, aren't they?
SummerSlam 1993's main event saw Lex Luger challenge Yokozuna for the WWF Championship in a match that had two stipulations: If Lex lost he'd never get a rematch, while the glorified bus driver had to cover the metal place in his forearm with padding.
The climax to this surprisingly decent match saw Lex strike down Mr Fuji, and with the referee attending to Fuji's aid he would remove his forearm padding and whack Yoko upside the head. This sent Mr 'baby got back' tumbling to the floor. He wouldn't be able to make it back into the ring before the 10 count which meant that Luger won via countout...
One thing that everyone apart from Bobby 'The Brain' Heenan on commentary had seemingly forgotten was that you can't win a title via countout, meaning Yoko was still champion.
Despite this, balloons and streamers came down from the rafters, fellow babyfaces took to the ring and all sorts of pomp and circumstance took place - all for a countout victory that didn't result in a championship changing hands.
Vince McMahon sanctioned the celebration because he thought a win was a win, despite this win being the hollowest win since... I don't know. This really might have been the most hollow win in WWE history.
