Mankind tries to put his head up against the cage, but the crappy blue bars leave a lot to be desired in a cage. He beats Hunter down a bit, then Hunter tries to climb out so Mankind chucks him back into the middle. Hunter runs for the door immediately, but Mankind holds onto him. It should be noted that the cage is the blue one that they used in the вЂ™90s. The only way you can win this match is by exiting the cage through the door or over the top. ( Pre-match notes: Hunter was the heel and Mankind was the face.) Steel Cage Match: Hunter Hearst Helmsley (w/Chyna) vs. HHH is out first with Chyna and Mankind was cheered for his entrance. The idea was that the brawl at Canadian Stampede was so wild they needed to be contained in a cage. They wrestled first at King of the Ring two months earlier with HHH winning, then they had a double countout brawl at Canadian Stampede a month earlier so this was the end of that feud. What a maneuver!ДЇirst match is Hunter Hearst Helmsley vs. Pretty cool video and IвЂ™ve always liked the voice guy they used in that era.ДЄnnouncers are crazy Vince McMahon, Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler.ДЄnalysis: This was VinceвЂ™s last SummerSlam as an announcer. The video package, in black and white, tells us how Bret Hart, The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels all have their various problems going on with Bret being hated by America, Undertaker being tormented by his past and Michaels having a lot of problems with Hart. The United States national anthem played to start the show off. WWE SummerSlam 1997Д¬ontinental Airlines Arena in East Rutherford, New Jersey IвЂ™ve tweaked some things along the way and formatted like the other SummerSlam reviews IвЂ™ve done. Most of this review was written for an old site I was a part of in 2008 and I re-posted it on here a few years ago. I remember not having any idea how they might book the finish of the main event, so I was very intrigued by it. There were a lot of questions going into this show about how Michaels and Hart would be able to work together in a major setting like SummerSlam. Michaels also lost the tag title he held with Steve Austin, who now had Dude Love (aka Mankind) as his championship partner.

Michaels threatened to quit the company, but ultimately stayed although he was off TV for a few weeks after it. They had a pull apart fight in the backstage area two months before this show. The Hart/Michaels issue wasnвЂ™t just something for the cameras.

If he did anything to cost Hart, his hated rival on screen and off, the match he would not be allowed to wrestle in America either. His wish was granted although he had to agree to a similar fate.

Meanwhile, Shawn Michaels wasnвЂ™t in a match for the show so he asked to be the referee of the match. Being that the show was in New Jersey, it would mean that the already favored Undertaker would be even more beloved by the fans. He claimed that if he didnвЂ™t win the belt he would never wrestle in the United States again, which is something the American fans loved because Bret was doing the anti-American gimmick with the Hart Foundation at this point. The roster wasnвЂ™t that great from top to bottom, but they were slowly building up to something with a young group of talent that would lead the company to great success (hello Borat) in the years that followed.Д«ret Hart was the challenger to the UndertakerвЂ™s WWE World Title. There was more excitement during 1997 than in five years before it. It wasnвЂ™t showing yet in terms of money, but if you watched regularly in 1997 like I did then you know it was one of the better years in WWE history. The tenth edition of SummerSlam took place at a time when WWE was really starting to turn a corner.
