"SummerSlam" 1989: Feel the Heat! Quiz

Answer: East Rutherford, New Jersey

The second annual "SummerSlam" was hosted in East Rutherford, New Jersey on August 28, 1989 at the Meadowlands Arena in front of 20,000 fans.

Answer: True

Indeed there was, and in this one, Dino Bravo scored a victory over Koko B. Ware. In case you're not familiar as to what a Dark Match is, it's a match that is NOT televised and only available to be seen by the fans at the actual event, for purposes such as to warm up the crowd.

Answer: The Brain Busters

The then-WWE World Tag Team Champions The Brain Busters, which consisted of Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard, squared off against The Hart Foundation (Bret Hart and Jim Neidhart), in a non-title match in which the WWE World Tag Team Champions defeated The Hart Foundation after Arn pinned Bret after delivering a "Diving Elbow Drop" from the middle rope. Bobby "The Brain" Heenan accompanied The Brain Busters to ringside for the bout.

By the end of the night, this had become the longest match of "SummerSlam" 1989.

Answer: Jimmy Hart

In the match, Dusty Rhodes defeated The Honky Tonk Man despite the odds placed upon him. After dodging a guitar shot directly to the head courtesy of Jimmy Hart (who ended up accidentally hitting Honky Tonk Man), Rhodes connected to Honky Tonk Man with a "Bionic Elbow", followed by the pin fall thus becoming the winner of the bout.

Answer: Red Rooster

This match was the only one in which a manager was NOT involved. In the match itself, Mr. Perfect hit the "Perfect Plex" in a little over three minutes to get the pin fall and the victory over Red Rooster.

Answer: Rick Martel and The Fabulous Rougeaus

Despite a somewhat controversial decision, Rick Martel and The Fabulous Rougeaus walked away the victors. The "controversial decision" was Marty Jannetty, the man who was not legal, was pinned with Shawn Michaels being the actual legal man.

Answer: "Ravishing" Rick Rude

This marks the second consecutive time in a row in which the WWE Intercontinental Championship was defended FIRST at a "SummerSlam", along with Ultimate Warrior winning the belt twice in a row. Along ringside in the corner of Rick Rude was Bobby Heenan, who was making his second appearance in the night as a manager.

Answer: False

It came immediately afterwards, and the second Six-Man Tag Team Match saw "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan and Demolition (Ax and Smash) defeat Andre the Giant and The Twin Towers when Smash pinned Akeem after Jim, despite the disqualification rule being in tact, blatantly hit Akeem in the head with his infamous 2x4.

Answer: 10 minutes

10 minutes it was, 9 minutes and 35 seconds to be exact. In chronological order, Hercules defeated Greg "The Hammer" Valentine via a disqualification which was called upon by guest ring announcer Ronnie Garvin after witnessing Valentine's cheating tactics (pinning Hercules with feet on the ropes), thus reversing the initial decision into a disqualification and Ted "Million Dollar Man" DiBiase, with Virgil at ringside, defeated Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka via a count-out.

Answer: Hulk Hogan

The team of then-WWE Champion Hulk Hogan and Brutus Beefcake walked away the victors after Hogan hit a "Leg Drop" on Zeus, and scoring the pin fall afterwards. This marked Hulk Hogan's second consecutive victory at the event, for which, to this day (and putting his now announced retirement from the WWE into consideration), is just one of his many victories for his undefeated streak at the event.
