WWF SummerSlam Countdown Show (August 30, 1993)

 

Original Airdate: August 30, 1993


Your Host is Todd Pettengill from his living room. Is that a picture of a young Shane and Stephanie McMahon behind him? This is Vince’s living room, isn’t it?


Todd runs down the card to start. After much schtick. Though, fuck it, I love this guy


WWF Champion Yokozuna/Lex Luger feud review. Vince is in rare form with the narration here


Bret Hart/Jerry Lawler feud review video


SummerSlam Hotline ad. It’s like the car dealer trying to sell you the maintenance plan before closing the deal on the car itself


Undertaker/Giant Gonzalez feud review video. Still no clarification on what the Rest in Peace Match is supposed to be, literally ten minutes before the start of the show


Todd runs down the card again


BUExperience: I find Todd’s sales pitches super comforting and nostalgic, so this was a win for me.
