Wrestling and emotional moments go hand in hand. Don't believe us? Just try holding back the tears next time you watch Ric Flair's WWE retirement at WrestleMania XXIV, or how visibly overwhelmed Rey Mysterio was upon winning the 2006 Royal Rumble.

Living vicariously through those moments, good and bad, is what being a wrestling fan is all about. SummerSlam has been a hotbed of such tear-jerking drama over the years, and the annual August event has delivered big time when it comes to those moments that made us as fans cry with happiness or uncontrollably sob with despair.

Often, you can feel the passion of a winner, the sadness of a loser, or even the authenticity of situations drenched in reality coming through the TV. One thing though, WWE: please don't ever book a 'love triangle' story that's actually real again.
