When it comes to WWE’s biggest events, few names carry the legacy of Hulk Hogan. While many fans remember his WrestleMania moments, what’s often overlooked is Hogan’s flawless track record at SummerSlam.

With Jesse Ventura as special guest referee and Miss Elizabeth providing a key distraction, this tag match was a wild and star-studded main event. Hogan hit the leg drop for the win.
2. SummerSlam 1989
Hulk Hogan & Brutus “The Barber” Beefcake vs. Randy Savage & Zeus
