The Heat Returns for another year! This is the third Summerslam PPV following two average showings. It also follows a disappointing Wrestlemania so I’m sure the WWE will be looking to bounce back with this one. A double main event has been advertised for this one. The first andmost important is the new World Heavyweight champion The Ultimate Warrior defending his title against “Ravishing” Rick … Continue reading Summerslam 90
The Ultimate Challenge. World Heavyweight Champion Hulk Hogan against Intercontinental Champion The Ultimate Warrior. Two huge babyfaces finally go one on one with the two singles titles at stake. It’s a huge main event right up there with Hogan/Savage and Hogan/Andre. It’s been brewing for a few months and tonight it comes to a head. Also at Wrestlemania VI the year long feud between Jake … Continue reading Wrestlemania 6

The Mega Powers Explode! That was the tagline for the 1989 Wrestlemania V PPV. And this is a Wrestlemania V review. So what do we know about this card coming off the back of the Royal Rumble PPV? Well Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage finally fell out and as a result headline this pay per view. It would seem that Hogan doesn’t like faces … Continue reading Wrestlemania 5
I love a Royal Rumble. So here we go with the second annual Royal Rumble Pay Per View. Going into this one Randy Savage is still the World Champion and has no obvious number one contender. I guess it’d either be Ted Dibiase, Big Boss Man, Bad News Brown or Akeem. He’ll be in the Rumble later on. Ultimate Warrior, the Intercontinental champion is feuding … Continue reading Royal Rumble 89

We’re back for the final PPV of 1988 and it’s a Survivor Series 1988 review. Now I love a Survivor Series as seen last year when it was ranked as WWE’s #1 PPV up to that point in my eyes. This year is much the same with four Survivor Series matches including one big twenty man tag team match. So fifty of WWE’s top superstars … Continue reading Survivor Series 88
Hello and welcome to this Summerslam 88 review. This is the first ever Summerslam and I have high hopes for it. Coming off the back of Wrestlemania IV we’re starting to see higher production values, more captivating storylines and a higher tempo of action. Randy Savage is the reigning World Heavyweight champion and the biggest storyline heading into this pay per view is his … Continue reading Summerslam 88
Well after a week off from reviewing I’m back with the next stop on our journey and this time it’s the first ever Survivor Series from Thanksgiving 1987. The theme for this PPV is two teams looking to eliminate the other team one by one in four matches. The first match has an Intercontinental flavour to it, the second a womens title flavour, the third … Continue reading Survivor Series 87
Hello folks, I’m back with the next step of our journey through WWE pay per view history and the next stop is one of the most pivotal events of all time. Wrestlemania 3. This show in my eyes was the peak of the Rock N Wrestling era featuring the culmination of some of the biggest rivalries in WWE history.
