Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The first match of "Summerslam" 2002 featured high-flier Rey Mysterio facing Kurt Angle. How did Angle, known for his signature "Ankle Lock", ultimately win this fast-paced match?

Answer: Submission

Rey Mysterio had recently debuted in WWE in the middle of 2002. After being beaten by Mysterio in an episode of "Smackdown!", Angle became enraged and challenged Rey to a match at the "biggest party of the summer". This match lasted just under ten minutes, with Rey wowing the crowd with his impressive high-flying maneuvers. Unfortunately for him, he soon became trapped in Kurt Angle's signature submission move, the "Ankle Lock", and had no choice but to tap out.
2. Two industry veterans, Ric Flair and Chris Jericho, faced off in the second match of "Summerslam" 2002. Which referee, known as "Little Naitch", was accidentally struck by Jericho as he officiated the match?

Answer: Charles Robinson

Charles Robinson is one of WWE's best-known referees. He started working for WCW in 1997, where he got to work closely with his real-life idol, Ric Flair. The blonde-haired official went on to become a crucial part of WWE's refereeing team, having been in charge of important matches like Ric Flair's retirement at "Wrestlemania XXIV" and Shawn Michaels' retirement match at "WrestleMania XXVI". Robinson often refereed Flair's matches.

Flair and Jericho both gave a great match, which became tainted by Flair's classic dirty moves. While Robinson was knocked out, Flair hit Jericho with a low blow and put him into the "figure four leglock". Jericho submitted and lost the match.
3. Edge and Eddie Guerrero delighted the Uniondale crowd with their exciting "Summerslam" 2002 bout. Which of the two emerged victorious after performing a "Spear"?

Answer: Edge

Following up with an ongoing feud from "Smackdown!", Edge and Eddie Guerrero tried to settle their differences with a "Summerslam" match. Despite Guerrero's multiple attempts to injure Edge's shoulder by, for instance, slamming him into the metal stairs, Edge ultimately prevailed after hitting Guerrero with a powerful "spear".

The two would face each other again a month later at "Unforgiven", with Guerrero coming out victorious from that match.
4. Did the WWE Tag Team Championship change hands at "Summerslam" 2002 in the match between The Un-Americans and Booker T and Goldust?

Answer: No

The Un-Americans were a group that, as their name suggests, was formed by wrestlers who were not U.S. citizens. Its members included three Canadians: Christian, Lance Storm, and Test; Briton William Regal later joined them. Two of them, Christian and Lance Storm, came into "Summerslam" as reigning WWE Tag Team Champions while waving an upside-down American flag on their way to the ring. The team of Booker T and Goldust sought to win the belts but were unsuccessful.

Referee Nick Patrick was knocked out during the match, which allowed Test to interfere and help his teammates keep their titles.
5. Which championship was at stake in the match between Rob Van Dam and Chris Benoit at "Summerslam" 2002?

Answer: Intercontinental Championship

Two of wrestling's most recognized superstars at the time competed in this match for the WWE Intercontinental Championship. Benoit came into the match as the defending champion, with this one being his fourth reign as Intercontinental Champion. Interestingly, the second time Benoit won that title was also in Uniondale, NY, where "Summerslam" 2002 took place.

Unfortunately for Benoit, Rob Van Dam gave a great performance and bravely resisted Benoit's submission moves. Van Dam came out as the new Intercontinental Champion, becoming the first superstar to win a title that night.
6. In one of the shortest matches of "Summerslam" 2002, Undertaker easily defeated Test. Which classic move did Undertaker use to pin his opponent and win the match?

Answer: Tombstone Piledriver

At this time, The Undertaker's gimmick was not one of darkness and mystery; rather, he was an American patriot who came into the ring on a motorcycle and wearing a bandanna. His opponent was Test, one of the members of The Un-Americans, a group that had no respect for the U.S. flag and its symbols.

The two wrestlers exchanged blows during the match and Undertaker even had to fight off interference from Test's teammates. However, after delivering a "Big Boot", Undertaker performed his signature "Tombstone Piledriver" on Test and defeated his Canadian opponent.
7. Triple H and Shawn Michaels faced each other in a memorable "Summerslam" 2002 unsanctioned street fight. Which of the two wore jeans during the match?

Answer: Shawn Michaels

Shawn Michaels was born in Arizona but grew up in the state of Texas. As a result, Michaels would often come to the ring dressed in jeans, cowboy boots, and a hat. At "Summerslam" 2002, Michaels came in wearing jeans, brown boots, and a belt with a white buckle.

His match with Triple H was booked as an "unsanctioned street fight", which meant that there would be no rules and no disqualifications. This stipulation added an element of violence and excitement to an already-thrilling match between two greats.
8. After a brutal street fight at "Summerslam" 2002, Shawn Michaels pinned Triple H to win the match. What happened once the match was over?

Answer: Triple H attacked Michaels with his sledgehammer

The match between Michaels and Triple H lasted nearly half an hour and is remembered as one of the greatest Pay-Per-View matches of the 2000 decade. The match featured nonstop action and the use of weapons like trash cans, steel chairs, and ladders. A bloodied Triple H almost won the match with a "Pedigree", but Shawn Michaels reversed and trapped his opponent in a pinfall, winning the match.

When the match ended, Triple H took out his frustration by hitting Michaels with a sledgehammer from behind.

The brutal attack left Michaels unconscious in the ring as Triple H left the arena bleeding but smiling.
9. The main event of "Summerslam" 2002 featured The Rock and Brock Lesnar fighting for The Rock's WWE Undisputed Championship. Who accompanied Lesnar to the ring?

Answer: Paul Heyman

Paul Heyman is a well-known name in the wrestling industry because of his involvement with the now-defunct ECW, and because he has managed legends like Lesnar, CM Punk, and Rob Van Dam. As Lesnar's manager, Heyman walked with him to the main event match. The Rock entered next and wasted no time, as he immediately started punching Lesnar before the referee could even ring the bell.
10. Who left "Summerslam" 2002 as the WWE Undisputed Champion?

Answer: Brock Lesnar

This match was really worthy of its main event status. The Rock and Brock Lesnar both gave great performances, exchanging exciting moves which included a lot of action outside the ring. At one point, The Rock performed a "Rock Bottom" on Heyman, slamming him into one of the announcers' tables. Later, Lesnar surprised The Rock by hitting him with his own finisher. From there, Lesnar overpowered "Rocky" and defeated him to become the new WWE Undisputed Champion.

The Rock, who had become the first-ever seven-time WWE champion when he defeated both Kurt Angle and The Undertaker at "Vengeance" 2002, lost his title that night and would never win it again (although in 2013, he did win the WWE Championship, which is considered a successor of the Undisputed belt).
