    • Trivia
      Big John Studd was originally scheduled to team with Demolition against André the Giant and the Twin Towers. But Studd left the WWF on June 6th after walking out of a TV taping in Madison, Wisconsin, and "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan took his place in the match instead.

      Backstage announcer Gene Okerlund was set to interview then-WWF Intercontinental Champion Rick Rude and Rude's manager Bobby "The Brain" Heenan prior to Rude's title defense against The Ultimate Warrior when the Summerslam backdrop fell backwards. An off-camera Vince McMahon could be heard saying "Nice move", followed by Okerlund yelling "F*** it".
