The Big Five Project: Summer Slam '95- Episode 313

The Big Five Project returns just in time for things to start improving in our chronological compilation of the history of WWE's Big Five PPVs. As bad as King of the Ring '95 was, things could only get better. And get better they did with Summer Slam '95. A much better card saw some outstanding matchups such as Hakushi vs the 1-2-3 Kid, Barry Harowitz winning a match, a casket match between Kama and The Undertaker, the PPV debut of Isaac Yankem, DDS (who would go on to a much more fiery career in WWE) as he faced Bret "Hitman" Hart. By far and away, the best match of the night was a rematch of WrestleMania X, a ladder match for the IC title between Shawn Michaels and Razor Ramon. The match was good enough to be deemed watch-along worthy, and the guys do just that on this Episode. It's not all good, though, as we also have Bertha Faye beating Alundra Blayze for the Women's Championship and King Mable nearly breaking the WWF Champion, Diesel, in half during their title match. But Summer Slam '95 was a definite step in the right direction for Vince McMahon and the WWF, and we have all the details for you here on another epic installment of the Big Five Project!
