#2 Shane McMahon falls from the stage set
One title many WWE fans would like the company to bring back is the Hardcore Championship. It fitted the company perfectly throughout the Attitude Era with stars like Foley and Terry Funk leading the way. The concept of the belt was also very novel, with the 24/7 rule meaning anybody could challenge for it at any one time.
In 2000, the belt was held by Steve Blackman, a former MMA and bodybuilder billed as one of the most dangerous men the WWF had ever seen. He ended up losing his championship to Shane McMahon with the help of outside interference leading up to a meeting over the title at Summerslam 2000.
This was essentially a recipe for the extreme to take place. Not only was the Hardcore Championship on the line, but it was being defended by 'The Lethal Weapon' Steve Blackman and a man known for putting his very livelihood on the line in order to elicit a cheer from the audience. It has almost become a signature of Shane's career to see what death defying stunt he is willing to take each time he steps foot in a ring.
This match was no exception. When the two men began to climb the scaffolding that formed part of the stage set, fans knew that the only way was down. From a height which probably surpassed that of a Hell in a Cell, Blackman struck his opponent with a kendo stick and the son and heir to the McMahon fortunes came crashing down onto a table set up on the floor below.
This is one of those stunts that instantly makes any highlight reel when looking back at top Summerslam moments. It's incredible to think that Shane McMahon still wrestles occasionally considering the amount of pain he has put himself through.
