In 1992, for the first and only time, SummerSlam headed across the pond to London, where Bret Hart defended the Intercontinental Title against England's Davey Boy Smith

It's seen as the greatest event in SummerSlam history, so we've managed to condense the all-action Wembley spectacular of 1992 into just 60 seconds.

As you can see in the video above, a lot happened in front of more than 80,000 fans 25 years ago.

Undertaker arrived in a hearse and went on to scare Kamala so much he ran away, Shawn Michaels fought for Sensational Sherri's affections in a match against Rick Martel and Randy Savage versus Ultimate Warrior ended in chaos after Mr Perfect and Ric Flair got involved.

Come to think about it, there weren't many conventional finishes to matches at SummerSlam 1992 but the end of Bret Hart's clash with British Bulldog lives long in the memory.

Thirty-five minutes after Davey Boy Smith was led to the ring by Lennox Lewis, the British Bulldog's arm was raised in victory after an epic encounter.

We charted the sad story behind the match earlier this week and, despite Smith's personal struggles, Hart still described the match as one of his greatest.

It'll be interesting to see whether any of the matches at this year's event in Brooklyn, live on Sky Sports Box Office at midnight on Monday, will come close to the drama of Wembley on that warm August night back in 1992.
