11 Worst SummerSlam Posters In History

11. 1990

First up on the chopping block is the effort from 1990.

The PPV it was advertising was absolutely packed with talent, headlined by a cage match for the WWE Championship between the Ultimate Warrior and Rick Rude. Elsewhere on the card, Hulk Hogan took on Earthquake, Randy Savage faced Dusty Rhodes, and there were further appearances from Jake Roberts, Bret Hart, as well as a rookie Shawn Michaels.

The poster, however, wasn’t quite as impressive.

To me, the biggest issue is its simplicity. The stock image on a black background isn’t quite enough to convince me to purchase a wrestling show, and the wrestler's photos are on such a slant that you find yourself craning your neck just to try and make sense of it.

Maybe I’m just being lazy, but neck stretches aren’t what I look for in a PPV poster. That being said, I’ve refrained from placing this one any higher since it is, after all, even older than I am.
