3. Summerslam 2002
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEFBxMXMufE The difference between a good PPV and a great PPV is often the quality of the undercard. While people pay to see the main event, that doesnt mean we should have to sit through two hours of matches with no build up or story. Summerslam 2002 was a great example of a good undercard. Kurt Angle and Rey Mysterio kicked off the night in decent fashion, Edge and Eddie Guerrero had a solid match and RVD and Chris Benoit put on a great match for the Intercontinental Championship. The two main event matches were both classics. Shawn Michaels made his return to the ring after a four-year hiatus in an absolutely brilliant battle with Triple H. For almost 25-minutes the pair destroyed each other before an emotional ending when HBK got his revenge on his former compatriot. Then came the big one: The Rock losing the Undisputed Championship to Brock Lesnar in the handing over of the torch. This was the moment when the Next Big Thing took up the mantle as it was becoming increasingly apparent that Rock was heading to Hollywood and Austin towards retirement.
