WWE SummerSlam 2004 Audience Reviews

WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Pluskylang Great Film overall
Walter Sloane Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
jts0405 Match 1: The Dudley Boyz vs Rey Mysterio, Billy Kidman & Paul London - A well needed opener for this show. A great chemistry of power from Bubba Ray and D-Von along with a great display of high flying from Spike Dudley, Rey Mysterio, Billy Kidman and Paul London. The cruiserweights took the fight to the Dudleys with their speed. It didn't pay off, because after all of it the Dudley Boyz took the win.Match 2: Kane vs Matt Hardy - Not a bad match. This was to determine who was marrying Lita. Matt Hardy was fighting off Kane with all he really had left over from their Vengeance encounter. Kane dominates with his power moves, while Hardy uses his showman like persona to carry some competition out of the powerhouse Kane. In the end Kane lands a chokeslam for the win and he ends up marrying Lita later that year.Match 3: John Cena vs Booker T - This was the first match in a Best of 5 series for the vacant United States title. Not really a bad match from these two, but more of a mediocre match instead. They carry a somewhat OK match that lasts a little over five minutes. Cena hits an FU for the win and he advances over Booker in the series.Match 4: Edge (c) vs Chris Jericho vs Batista in a Triple Threat match for the Intercontinental Championship - Batista has been billed as a huge powerhouse since joining Evolution, at this point he really wasn't known for his wrestling skills or in ring ability. He looked pretty horrible in this particular match. Once we got to Edge and Jericho just fighting each other it got a little more interesting. Pedictably we see Edge retain in the end. Mediocre match once again.Match 5: Kurt Angle vs Eddie Guerrero - Top notch match once again from these two. They both had some impressive battles in 2004. Angle continuously works on Eddie's ankle, which gives him the edge in the end. Guerrero uses his usual tactics in the ring and it makes for a pretty great match. In the end Angle makes Guerrero tap out to his signature ankle lock.Match 6: Eugene vs Triple H - Fairly lousy match from these two. Triple H takes on Eugene because he cost him his chance to regain the World Championship from Chris Benoit at the previous Vengeance event. The longer the match went it looked more and more lackluster. Triple H wasn't even able to beat Eugene on his own, he needed to help of Ric Flair to beat this guy. Triple H should try winning matches on his own for a change instead of relying on Flair all the time. In the end he lands a pedigree on Eugene for the win.Match 7: Team Dream vs Team Diva in Diva Dodgeball - Uh interesting stuff at best. The Team Dream wins.Match 8: JBL (c) vs Undertaker for the WWE Championship - JBL proves why he is such a horrible wrestler once again. The only reason this match is considerably average is do to the Undertaker carrying JBL and his terrible wrestling skills. Undertaker reveals a whole lot about JBL and his bad wrestling skills in this match. It was a pretty lousy WWE title match on this big of an event. The ending isn't clear cut, but it is also very entertaining to see JBL get put through his limo.Match 9: Chris Benoit (c) vs Randy Orton for the World Heavyweight Championship - Benoit was in the same spot that his challenger was in, only at Wrestlemania XX. The match was better than the WWE Championship encounter before it. Orton shines bright in this one, showing a ton of promise as a main eventer. Benoit proves that he was a great Champion for as long as he held it, taking the fight to his young challenger. In the end Orton lands an RKO to claim the gold and be noted as the youngest World Champon in history. Too bad he didn't hold it that long.
kliko400 This was definitely the best Summerslam I have ever watched FIRST MATCH- DUDLEY BOYS & SPIKE DUDLEY VS. PAUL London, BILLY KIDMAN & REY MYSTERIO IN A 6 MAN TAG TEAM MATCH Great action & a fine opener as well. Both these teams put on a great 6-man wrestling match. Dudley Boys & Spike Dudley get the win after the Dufley Boys nail a 3-D on Billy Kidman for the victory. 5/10 SECOND MATCH- KANE VS. MATT HARDY IN A TILL DEATH DO US A PART MATCH Believe it or not this match was really good, definitely better than there boring match at Vengeance. Kane wins after a Super-Chokeslam off the top rope on Matt Hardy to win & Lita now has to be his wife {LOL}. 5/10 THIRD MATCH- JOHN CENA VS. BOOKER T IN MATCH 1 OF THE BEST OF 5 SERIES FOR THE WWE UNITED STATES CHAMPIONSHP This was a very good match, great wrestling action from both of these guys. John Cena wins Match 1 Of The Best Of 5 Series for the United States Title after an F-U on Booker T. 6/10 FOURTH MATCH- EDGE VS. CHRIS JERICHO VS. BATISTA IN A TRIPLE-THREAT MATCH FOR THE WWE INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP Not bad, not bad. Off course Chris Jericho & Edge are the ones who made this match good. Batista was just getting beaten up by these guys. Edge retains his IC Title after nailing a Spear on Jericho. 5/10 FIFTH MATCH- KURT ANGLE W/ LUTHER REIGNS VS. EDDIE GUERRERO You can always expect a good match from these guys especially after their match at Wrestlemania XX. Although their match at Wrestlemania XX was better this was still a good match which Kurt Angle won after making Eddie tap out to the Ankle Lock. 5/10 SIXTH MATCH- TRIPLE H W/ RIC FLAIR VS. EUGENE When I watched this match I was really surprised that it was a great match. Of course not the best but really good. Eugene put up a great fight but after getting distracted by Ric Flair & Willam Regal brawling at ringside, he turns around only for HHH to nail the Pedigree on him for the win. 5/10 SEVENTH MATCH- JBL W/ ORLANDO JORDAN VS. UNDERTAKER FOR THE WWE CHAMPIONSHIP Wow this match was really good as well. Great effort from both JBL & Undertaker. JBL retains his title after Undertaker got disqualified by the referee for hitting JBL with his own WWE Belt. After the match Undertaker goes berserk & nails a Last Ride on JBL through his limo {Awesome}. 5/10 EIGHT MATCH- DIVA DODGEBALL It's the Raw Search Divas vs. Raw Superstar Divas. Not bad but it's cool to see the Divas getting some fun in the Summerslam PPV event as well. Raw Search Divas get the win. After the game a brawl between Victoria & Trish ensures which leads to all Divas trying to break up the fight. 3/10 NINTH MATCH- RANDY ORTON VS. CHRIS BENOIT FOR THE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP This was also a good mainevent match. Great take down & submission holds by both men. In the end Orton nails a RKO out of nowhere to pin Benoit & become the youngest World Champion in the history of the WWE. 6/10 This was the best Summerslam PPV event I have ever watched. It definitely is the third best Smackdown & Raw joint PPV of the year {The other best two are Royal Rumble & Wrestlemania XX}.Overall: I'll give it a 8/10 & a B+
rvd_500 SummerSlam was a pay-per-view that excitement and questions to both RAW & Smackdown Match 1: Spike & Dudley Boyz vs. Rey Mysterio, Billy Kidman & Paul London Mysterio, Kidman & London look good as usual. London is with Shelton Benjamin & RVD on of the best athletes in the WWE. Kidman is great too. The cruiser weight action light up this match. By the way if the Dudleys would lose Spike would lose his cruiser weight title to whoever picked up the pin. But nobody did. First, after Kidman B-K Bombed Spike, Bubba broke up the pin. Then, when Mysterio hit the 619 & Kidman the Shooting Star Press (the coolest move today), D-Von pulled Mysterio out of the ring. Dudleys win after an illegal 3-D.Rating: 4/5 Match 2: Matt Hardy vs. Kane. Til' Death Do Us Part Match.What happened was that Lita was pregnant. And the child wasn't Matt's. It was Kane's... This leads into a match between Matt & Kane, and the winner would marry Lita the next night on RAW. Matt totally dominates the entire match, and after a Twist Of Fate, Kane gets his foot on the bottom rope. Kane then hits a choke slam from the top rope. Incredible choke slam.Rating: 3/5 Match 3: Booker T vs. John Cena.This was the first out of five matches to decide who would be the United States Champion. When Booker turned heel, i knew it wasn't going to work out. And it didn't. He turned heel because he didn't like Smackdown. What the!? Cena picks up the first win in the series.Rating: 1/5 Match 4: Edge vs. Chris Jericho vs. Batista. Intercontinental Championship Triple Threat.The Toronto crowd is weird. I mean, they boo Edge in his own hometown! Anyway, this was like any other Triple Threat Match. Two wrestlers in the ring, while th other one recovers on the outside. A dropkick from Edge takes five years to get up from! Edge retains.Rating: 2/5 Match 5: Kurt Angle vs. Eddie Guerrero.A match featuring both Kurt Angle & Eddie Guerrero has to be great. The match at Wrestlemania XIX was great. The LumberJack Match three weeks after SummerSlam was great. But Angle is a little slower after his neck surgery. Both can do better, but this is great.Rating: 3/5 Match 6: Triple H vs. Eugene.Finally, Triple H isn't in the main event! The Toronto crowd once again makes no sense. They actually boo Eugene and cheer for Triple H! Wow, it really is Bizarro World. Anyway, Eugene hits Triple's Pedigree, but Flair puts his foot on the bottom rope. Triple gives Eugene his first ever pin fall loss in the WWE.Rating: 1/5 Match 7: Diva dodge ball.Get a life! What is this! This isn't wrestling! dodge ball isn't wrestling! I'm sorry, i just can't give this a good rating.Rating: 0/5 Match 8: Undertaker vs. John Bradshaw Layfield. WWE Championship.I like Undertaker and not JBL. But JBL is simply better in this match. He is smarter than the Undertaker, and wrestles better than him the entire match. This match was rather slow, and just like every other JBL match the ref gets knocked out and Orlando Jordan interferes. JBL nails Undertaker with the belt, but Jordan puts the KO:d referees hands down too slow. Taker gets disqualified after the ref saw him hit JBL with the belt. Taker then destroys JBL.Rating: 3/5 Match 9: Chris Benoit vs. Randy Orton. World Heavyweight Championship.Chris Benoit is great. Orton is not. But this match is in the top three matches of 2004. Can't really say so much about this match, just great. Orton wins without Evolution interference. Evolution then destroys Orton after his rematch with Benoit the next night on RAW.Rating: 5/5 Good: The main event and the opener were great.Bad: The Diva dodge ball was so unnecessary/Triple H vs. Eugene/Booker's heel turn SummerSlam Rating: 4/5
goforthesilvergophers This was definitely a great PPV with lots of good matches. Here is my review.6-man tag. DUDLEYS vs Kidman, London, and Mysterio. A good way to kick things off. As usual the dudleys are seemingly lacking the flair they used to have but still a good match. Rather bland ending though. 7 out of 10.Matt Hardy vs Kane, winner marries Lita. This match was just brutal. WWE really needs to give kane back his mask. 5 out of 10.Cena vs Booker T. 1st out of best of five series. Why is this match on PPV?Oh well. Still a good match that really made up for the last one. Booker seemed in my opinion, to be having some trouble doing his moves. 6 out of 10.Edge vs Y2J vs Batista. Triple threat for IC title. Very weird how Edge was booed in his hometown. Not the best triple threat match, but still a good one. It seemed that there was never a scene where all three men were in the ring at once. 7 out of 10.Kurt Angle vs Eddie Guerrero. Awseome match. Very technical. Kurt seemed to be at the top of his game here and Eddie was not that far behind. Was not predicting Eddie tapping out though. I thought the angle slam would put him away. 9 out of 10.HHH vs Eugine. This match would have been 10 times better if they made it a NO DQ match (I am not copying material, I just have the same thoughts). Eugine is not a good wrestler, he is just really entertaining. I laughed so hard when he did the stunner. Good match. 8 out of 10Diva dodgeball. Good grief this was stupid. 1 out of 10.Undertaker vs JBL WWE championship. I thought this match was going to suck but I was wrong. Undertaker was 100% on the top of his game. As usual JBL sucks. Disappointing ending with the DQ and all. However I did love it when JBL was put through the roof of his limo. 8 out of 10.Chris Beniot vs Randy Orton. Match of the night. This match proved to me that Orton deserves the belt (although Beniot is my favorite wrestler). Unbelievable performance by both men. Surprised that Orton got the clean win. 10 out of 10.
