Ryan and Cindy end up the summer of 1999 with a look at SummerSlam 1999. We go to Minnesota and to this point, the only time a sitting Governor referees a main event. Among the many topics:

  • The millennium clock hits 0 and the WWF is never, ever the same again!
  • A very confusing #1 contendership going into SummerSlam.
  • A run-down of Jesse Ventura’s career and how he rose to political prominence. 
  • Once again, Debra wearing the good outfit at PPV and her pulling a fast one along with Mark Henry to help Jeff Jarrett.
  • The tag turmoil match and the steady rising of the Edge/Christian-Hardy Boys feud
  • A fun (Ryan’s words, not Cindy’s) hardcore match between Al Snow and the Big Boss Man that takes it to the streets of Minnesapolis. 
  • The final end to the Steve Blackman/Ken Shamrock feud, in a Lion Den’s Weapons match.
  • A very fun Shane McMahon (!) Test (!!!) match in a Love Her or Leave Her match, including the Mean Street Posse in their Hawaiian shirt attires. 
  • The Unholy Alliance dominates the Tag Team title scene. 
  • The Rock just stuck Mr. Ass’s head in that large woman’s ass!
  • An entertaining enough, yet still slightly disappointing main event, including the surprising ending to both the match and the show. 
  • Triple H finishing his story the night after SummerSlam.
  • The debut of Smackdown featuring HBK turning heel and then quickly disappearing for 8 months.
  • The formation of the Rock n’ Sock Connection, including a wild Buried Alive match featuring Triple H standing tall, until Steve Austin makes his triumphant, attempted murder return. 

    • Enjoy the show!
