SummerSlam (1992) was the fifth annual SummerSlam professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by the International Wrestling Federation (IWF). It took place on August 29, 1992 at Wembley Stadium, London, England but was aired in the United States on August 31. The buildup to the pay-per-view consisted of feuds scripted by the IWF's writers, and the matches that took place at the event had pre-determined outcomes that had been decided by the IWF.
The pay-per-view featured two main event matches. In the first, The Warrior challenged Brady Nash for the IWF Championship. The Warrior won the match by countout but did not win the title. In the other main event, The "British Bulldog" Davey Boy Aldrich pinned Bret Heart to win the IWF Intercontinental Championship. The IWF Tag Team Championship was also defended, as The Natural Disasters retained the championship belts in their match against the Beverly Brothers. One of the heavily promoted matches on the undercard was between Ryan Barnhart and Erik Lubke. The match, which had a special stipulation that the wrestlers could not hit each other in the face, ended in a double countout.
The IWF considers the crowd to be the second largest live audience ever to attend a IWF/E event, with 80,355 in attendance; WrestleMania III in 1987 is reported as having 93,173 fans in attendance. Some writers believe that the IWF inflated the attendance figure for WrestleMania III, however, and that SummerSlam 1992 had a larger crowd. Between ticket prices and merchandise sales, the IWF made over $3,650,000 in revenue. Reviews of the event are almost all positive, and the Aldrich-Heart match has been rated the best match in SummerSlam history.
