Hey Adam, I have a challenge for you. Book a Four Horsemen Revival with Dax Hardwood, Cash Wheeler, Dolph Ziggler, and Robert Roode with their manager being Ric Flair.
I still don’t understand how WWE still won’t have Trish & Lita meet at the rumble unless they didn’t want to. In the terrible 2022 rumble (really sad Sasha was supposed to win) that Mickie James wasn’t one of the final 4. Fans would have been freaking out “what if Impact ‘women’s champion’ Mickie James won the rumble?” It offered a really interesting wrinkle.
The second Adam impersonated the fans and said "well all the big names have already entered?" I was screaming no because I knew he was going to put Stephanie as Number 30.
It's so unfortunate that Paige had that neck injury, she deserved to be apart of that historic event and her being involved would have made the Women's Royal Rumble match a whole lot sweeter
I truly love how Adam does a summary of what happened before diving into it. It really does help and I want him to do this for everything that has ever happened in the history of time
How Adam would book: Chris Jericho and Kevin Owen's friendship story Brock Lesnars 2012 return Brauns Strowmans run from 2017 to 2018 Gallows and Anderson main roster run
Tbh, the Jericho/Owens friendship story is...borderline perfect. The only change necessary is DON'T JOB KO OUT TO BILLY GOLDBERG and let The long running, well told story involving two main event caliber wrestlers who are going to be there the Monday after WM main event the show.
@@Windrake101 you mean the one candace turns edge into the boogeyman that speaks like davari and turns you into a wonan? Yeah that's never going to happen
Not having Lita and Trish in the rumble at the same time would essentially be having Rock and Stone cold in a modern rumble then have neither interact within the match. It was insane.
But we have seen trish and lita together so many times. Since they both left. Would make zero difference. Especially as nobody would buy them fighting each other. Made more sense to start the rumble with lita and end on trish that way fans got mega stars and the start and finish
"Keep Steph Commentary for reasons" "We get to number 30 and all the big names have already come out" Me: no no nononononononononononNONONONONONONO "Number 30 Stephanie McMahon"
@@Allexstrasza not really the same thing at all. Asuka and naka are crazy talented. Giving them a push is just giving great talent the push they deserve. Jinder on the other hand is just terrible
I love this booking. Rumbles are always fun to either watch or book, the stories make sense and have more depth than the original match, and the champions going in are interesting as well. Also the Stephanie cameo at the end would have been great to see cause Philly would have showered it with so much go away heat it would have been heard globally.
9:48 'wwe never feels human' there's an interview I've listened to Steph lately where she was ejaculating about wwe's huge analytics division, which can pin point very accurately how each miniscule action of a person or an event affects involvement and interest from the viewers. I'm doing a bad job describing it, but that, combined with those creepy led screens, with scripted, censored reactions caused me to feel a guttural "ewwww" towards their whole product. To the point, where if my favorite wrestler in the world would debut there, I would experience nothing but disappointment, instead of what used to be excitement.
I hated Rhonda showing up, it buried asuka, sure you might say that it was asuka's fault that she got overlooked (The sink or swim factor that people talk about in wrestling) But imagine if steve austin won the royal rumble in the 90s but mike tyson showed up and announced that he was going to wrestlemania and the camera just ignored austin
@@theoneandonlymichaelmccormick WWE logic....there's only a handful of ppl to get over when being booked to fail and they just feed them to Brock anyway.
@@theoneandonlymichaelmccormick this is why I miss the wrestling of old. Generally, the talent was trusted to make decisions in the ring based on fan reactions .. even when it came to possible storylines changing. If Asuka was able to kick Rhonda's head off, grab the mic and say like "how dare you try and steal my spotlight". Legit pop. Asuka gets cheered to hell, Rhonda instantly goes heel, which, would have been WAY better for her, and you set up a feud that keeps both busy til wrestlemania. Charlotte gets involved to try and get the upper hand on Asuka so no finish goes clean leading to a triple threat where Asuka stacks them and pins them like what SHOULD have happened. (by no finish, I mean like 1 match before WM). Asuka should have weekly matches where she destroys people, while Rhonda talks about her UFC days with clips if possible) Asuka is legit on the main roster for years, charlotte can ALWAYS eat a loss and still be fine, and Rhonda doesn't suffer too much Because it wasn't a 1 on 1. You can always fall back in that to get back heat. "in a 1 on 1, that wouldn't happen". Kind of thing. There is my fantasy booking for that little story leading to WM from RR. Yeah Rhonda probably wouldn't have a bunch of matches, MAYBE one the PPV before Mania. But that is the biggest problem with WWE and one of the reasons it is super hard to watch. Every TV show is 2 people in a feud wrestle, dusty finish giving them a reason to wrestle again. Dusty finish. Do it again Dusty finish. Guess it is a PPV match now. 50/50 chance of a dusty finish at the PPV to extend the feud cause they don't have any other ideas. Repeat for another month.
The ONE thing I remember about Steph from this match was that the others were clearly terrified of saying the Forbidden Name when referencing all the legends of women's wrestling as the match went on and Steph decided to briefly and curtly address the elephant in the room and name dropped Chyna. Like no one else would have actually risked bringing her up, so Steph said get it over with and move on.
Yeah! That's one thing I will always actively remember. Michael Cole name dropping legendary women and Stephanie McMahon of all people tells him to not forget Chyna. It alway saddens me that it took Chyna's passing for WWE to finally acknowledge her.
@@zadok23 they aren't really a stable, they're just four women who helped put eyes on NXT after Paige, Emma, and Summer Rae went up to the main roster.
The Actual Women's revolution started in TNA with the Knockouts Division in 2007 we all know who really started the women's revolution it wasn't Stephanie McMahon it was the OG TNA Knockouts that's my opinion.
I've always liked the name "Knockout " for their women's division. It was good wordplay. I agree with Paige in that the name "Diva" was fine, but that belt had to go.
@@AlveinFencer Yeah, Knockout also has better connotations. If somebody were to call a woman a knockout they’d mean that she was STARTLING in her beauty and her presence. If somebody were to call a woman a diva they’d mean that she was hard to work with and self-obsessed. Combine that with the fact that the phrase “knockout” STARTED as a professional fighting term and was later coopted to refer to women, and it just makes sense.
Except it obviously didn't catch on because it took another 8 years for the NXT Women's division to ACTUALLY signal a change in how women were treated in mainstream American wrestling
If I could make only one change to the first women's rumble, it would be ronda's debut. Its a little bit of an overrated debut where she just stood for a photo op and kind of took away from asuka's moment. Like you said, it overshadowed her win a little bit. And great job Adam, you never disappoint with these rebookings.
It's a great concept, but i don't think Adam is familiar enough with the Golden Era to really make it work. Besides, there's not a lot you can do with the Golden Era because of the ever-present specter of Hulk Hogan dominating that time period.
I would love it if did what you used to do on whatculture with 10 fascinating facts of each years ppv. Those videos were by far the best thing to ever happen to that channel.
As someone who hasn't really watched wrestling in a decade, I just love these videos because Adam can spin such a fascinating tale. I loved every minute of this.

These booking videos are honestly more entertaining than watching actual WWE shows. Thank you for putting so much effort into these Adam! I'm always impressed after every video
Huge props to Adam. What an amazing return to form. That long disappearance...to his new spot at partsfunknown...Adam looks truly better. Respect to u sir! Cheers to ur rebirth and rising from the ashes, you god damned Phoenix of the wrestling world.
I actually have the script from that episode from before Adam scrapped the idea. Hi I'm Adam from PartsFunknown and today I'm going to be telling you I would've booked 205 Live. [Title Card] [Fade back to Adam] I wouldn't. Have a good day. [Roll Patreon credits]
I know that Adam's fantasy bookings are meant to be realistic but when he mentioned the nostalgia pops I was hoping there would be an AJ Lee return... We all forgot how good AJ Lee was... She was the first genuinely talented female wrestler (post the dreadful Diva era dominated by the Bellas). I miss AJ Lee, so sad to see a woman's work forgotten and overshadowed by her husband's name and relationship with the company.
Isn't it a weird high watching all these amazing booking videos with Adam's creativity and awesome comedic timing whilst knowing that these events never happened and never will? These videos make me incredibly happy and heartbroken at the same time. ANOTHER!
Your booking vids are always just so much better than what the WWE actually does. I mean, I'm not wrong. I've loved your vids since you still winked at the camera. I'd say you should run a promotion yourself, but...we know what happened last time...shit's tough, man. But you've got the brains for it, for sure!
*"IT'S TOO HOT IN THE UK"* I see a possible partsFUNknown t-shirt or mug for merchandise. 😂 The booking is way better than the original event back in January, 2018. And for the love of God, give Adam the AC, dammit! 😂
This is the third time in a row that you've uploaded a new Booking video the day after I check to see if there's a new one. Ive gotten pretty good at timing this.
I really like it. The only kind of criticism i could muster would be that i don't overly care for the tag team double eliminations, but they were contained at the start of the match, and as you said: it's the ending of a Rumble that matters most.
Nikki Cross v Asuka Last Woman Standing......why can't we have the the Twisted Sister and the Empress of Tomorrow on the main roster? The match was stellar
Sadly, I had a very strong feeling that Asuka was going to win that year considering how she still had her streak, and WrestleMania was around the corner :(
Is it bad that once you said “all the big names we expected to come out have come” & you did the count down I said to myself “Stephanie McMahon you sob” 😂😂😂😂
I loved the idea of Bailey/Banks 1 and 2...and the dynamic of respectfully agreeing to fight...then team... ...but don't you think the golden payoff to that story within the rumble would be for both of them to last the entire length, and towards the end show cracks in the cooperation...then have them as the final 4, and one of them turns on the other with a surprise move, thus fueling the long existing flame of their relationship? You could give Bailey her chance for revenge from Sasha's bs all the years, or have Sasha eliminate Bailey with a backstabbing move to further develop their character arch Just an idea to build upon your idea
Sorta true but there's more big pips than just them. Over people on the current roster like Askua would get a pop. Also you've got Rhonda after Steph's elimination for a pop too. The four horsewomen uniting is a pop. Trish and Lita in the same match with no face off is criminal.
I loved this rebooking, few things I would change: Trish and Lita would last longer and replace probably Molly and Naomi towards the end, Ruby Riott would get a bigger spotlight, and finally, Asuka last eliminates Charlotte instead of Sasha to further hype their WM match
@@giovannigiovanni.7220 that would also be cool bc Mickie retired Lita in 2006, so if Mickie was eliminated by Lita and Trish together, that would be cool
Adam, you've now turned on my creative fantasy booking juices, and on the subject of women's rumbles, come 2022, we need a Nikki ASH and Mighty Molly crossover.
Brilliant alternative for Ronda's debut! Personally, I do think the entry numbers have to seem a little bit random still, so I would have left out the Absolution vs Riott Squad part and maybe the IIconics vs Divas of Doom part too. Also, Michelle McCool and Kelly Kelly rightfully deserved their spots in my opinion and I was really happy to see both of them back. Kelly was hugely popular during her time and Michelle was obviously the WWE's top girl from 2009-2012. Michelle having more eliminations than Nia Jax may have been a bit too much, but she was amazing at finding creative counters for moves so I do think a few eliminations by her doing still were realistic.
I really agree with the Ronda thing. It really undermined the ENTIRE MATCH when she came out after Asuka won and took credit for the entire night. I get it; she's a huge draw and a huge fan. But she wasn't even in the match. Have her be a part of it somehow, or not at all. The way WWE booked Ronda was damaging to everyone, including Rousey.
One of the jokes that always made me laugh, but no one else seems to find funny was one of the offhanded commenters on whatever Smackdown VS Raw had Kelly Kelly on it. "A woman so nice, they named her Kelly Kelly" That's gold. It sets up expectations, and then subverts them and they did it in such a deadpan way.
Awesome job, as ever . . . but now you’ve done the first ever women’s rumble match, you have to Fantasy Book the first ever Men’s match too. 30 men (not the 20 we got) all from that late 80’s era and before any of them knew what a rumble match could do!!!
Loved this re-book! It’s always bugged me that Ronda stole the spot light from Asuka, so getting rid of that was perfect. I know “How WCW Should’ve Booked” isn’t a thing anymore but I’d love to see you re-book the New Blood vs Millionaires Club feud.
I mean, that's a super easy one: make the New Blood the faces, and the Millionaires Club the heels. You have immediately fixed 90% of the problems of the story right there.
100% agree with the analysis of Michelle McCool, the Bellas, Asuka vs. Ember, everything. Sometimes Adam's bookings really frustrate me because they're not real. These versions are usually always way better.
Honestly the crux of all the issues I have with the Woman’s Royal Rumble is that they tried to make a bunch of records in the first couple of rumbles, and it should not be a rumble of records, like the first ever royal rumble didn’t try to have a bunch of records because it was an over the top rope battle royal and that was the attraction, in the first woman’s rumble you had your iron women when you really didn’t need it, however (counter acting my own point) how can you make the first woman’s rumble special, it’s a difficult issue to really tackle
I actually think I'd have burst into tears if I got to see Trish and Lita get to have a stand-off in this Rumble, would have been bloody beautiful and more than deserved

Hi I'm Adam from PartsFunknown and today I'm going to be telling you I would've booked 205 Live. [Title Card] [Fade back to Adam] I wouldn't. Have a good day. [Roll Patreon credits]
@@Dawnbreakerr 😂😂
@@Dawnbreakerr *picks up a book. Closes said book.
FIN.
I know that Adam's fantasy bookings are meant to be realistic but when he mentioned the nostalgia pops I was hoping there would be an AJ Lee return... We all forgot how good AJ Lee was... She was the first genuinely talented female wrestler (post the dreadful Diva era dominated by the Bellas).
I miss AJ Lee, so sad to see a woman's work forgotten and overshadowed by her husband's name and relationship with the company.
Isn't it a weird high watching all these amazing booking videos with Adam's creativity and awesome comedic timing whilst knowing that these events never happened and never will? These videos make me incredibly happy and heartbroken at the same time.
ANOTHER!
Everyone knows that it was Stephanie McMahon who created women's wrestling and the women's Revolution.
Yea right 🤣
If you ask steph she invented Women
@@twilliamspro she was the first woman
That was so amazingly well done. Love the 4 horsewoman and Stephanie bits. Just awesome.
Thank you for posting this. I lost my grandfather today, your videos are the perfect distraction, Adam always makes me smile.
11:30 yes, this was actually amazing to throw into a quality Adam booking session.
Your booking vids are always just so much better than what the WWE actually does. I mean, I'm not wrong. I've loved your vids since you still winked at the camera. I'd say you should run a promotion yourself, but...we know what happened last time...shit's tough, man. But you've got the brains for it, for sure!
I really liked the first Women's Rumble.
*"IT'S TOO HOT IN THE UK"* I see a possible partsFUNknown t-shirt or mug for merchandise. 😂 The booking is way better than the original event back in January, 2018. And for the love of God, give Adam the AC, dammit! 😂
A booking video on a Friday. I'm in, I'm here for it 🍿
This is the third time in a row that you've uploaded a new Booking video the day after I check to see if there's a new one. Ive gotten pretty good at timing this.
I think the Trish and Mickey spot that got a huge pop was pretty memorable. Everytime I rewatch it I get goosebumps
That Stephanie spot is effing BRILLIANT!!!
I really like it.
The only kind of criticism i could muster would be that i don't overly care for the tag team double eliminations, but they were contained at the start of the match, and as you said: it's the ending of a Rumble that matters most.
This made me smile. Thank you
Nikki Cross v Asuka Last Woman Standing......why can't we have the the Twisted Sister and the Empress of Tomorrow on the main roster? The match was stellar
Sadly, I had a very strong feeling that Asuka was going to win that year considering how she still had her streak, and WrestleMania was around the corner :(
Not to mention she came out about 10 entries too late. I'd have had her come out at 15 at the latest.
@@youngdolo8 And also, having to eliminate only just The Bella Twins to win
Is it bad that once you said “all the big names we expected to come out have come” & you did the count down I said to myself “Stephanie McMahon you sob” 😂😂😂😂
I loved the idea of Bailey/Banks 1 and 2...and the dynamic of respectfully agreeing to fight...then team...
...but don't you think the golden payoff to that story within the rumble would be for both of them to last the entire length, and towards the end show cracks in the cooperation...then have them as the final 4, and one of them turns on the other with a surprise move, thus fueling the long existing flame of their relationship?
You could give Bailey her chance for revenge from Sasha's bs all the years, or have Sasha eliminate Bailey with a backstabbing move to further develop their character arch
Just an idea to build upon your idea
Lita and Trish being spaced out the way they were was the right move. You spread out the big pops
Sorta true but there's more big pips than just them. Over people on the current roster like Askua would get a pop. Also you've got Rhonda after Steph's elimination for a pop too. The four horsewomen uniting is a pop. Trish and Lita in the same match with no face off is criminal.
18:54 There's something about "Eternal Heat Engine" that cracks me up every time.
You always do a good job with these bids, but this is one of my favorites
How was this determined to be this month’s booking, now that the partsFUNknown Patreon is gone?
I loved this rebooking, few things I would change: Trish and Lita would last longer and replace probably Molly and Naomi towards the end, Ruby Riott would get a bigger spotlight, and finally, Asuka last eliminates Charlotte instead of Sasha to further hype their WM match
I also would have a Lita and Mickie James stare down. Because Mickie was originally supposed to stalk Lita.
@@giovannigiovanni.7220 that would also be cool bc Mickie retired Lita in 2006, so if Mickie was eliminated by Lita and Trish together, that would be cool
How Adam Would Book... The Finger Poke of Doom.
You all KNOW you want it.
that twist at the end *mwah* certified chefs kiss bravo adam another hit👏🏽
Adam, you've now turned on my creative fantasy booking juices, and on the subject of women's rumbles, come 2022, we need a Nikki ASH and Mighty Molly crossover.
Please keep these up
Brilliant alternative for Ronda's debut! Personally, I do think the entry numbers have to seem a little bit random still, so I would have left out the Absolution vs Riott Squad part and maybe the IIconics vs Divas of Doom part too.
Also, Michelle McCool and Kelly Kelly rightfully deserved their spots in my opinion and I was really happy to see both of them back. Kelly was hugely popular during her time and Michelle was obviously the WWE's top girl from 2009-2012. Michelle having more eliminations than Nia Jax may have been a bit too much, but she was amazing at finding creative counters for moves so I do think a few eliminations by her doing still were realistic.
I really agree with the Ronda thing. It really undermined the ENTIRE MATCH when she came out after Asuka won and took credit for the entire night. I get it; she's a huge draw and a huge fan. But she wasn't even in the match. Have her be a part of it somehow, or not at all. The way WWE booked Ronda was damaging to everyone, including Rousey.
What you should do next is How AEW Should Book CM Punk & Bryan Danielson, please? Glad to see you still kicking ass with these vids!
I loved the Paige spot! That would’ve been an epic way for her to end her in ring career.
One of the jokes that always made me laugh, but no one else seems to find funny was one of the offhanded commenters on whatever Smackdown VS Raw had Kelly Kelly on it.
"A woman so nice, they named her Kelly Kelly"
That's gold. It sets up expectations, and then subverts them and they did it in such a deadpan way.
Adam knows how to book things! Loved this!
That Stephanie at 30 pop would've been Gold!!
I genuinely did not remember absolution, I was so taken aback when Adam didn't say "Fire and Desire"
Awesome job, as ever . . . but now you’ve done the first ever women’s rumble match, you have to Fantasy Book the first ever Men’s match too. 30 men (not the 20 we got) all from that late 80’s era and before any of them knew what a rumble match could do!!!
God these videos just make my day when they come out, really it just makes me so happy
The best Adam cold open, before the actual booking, ever bro
Nice to see Adam do some Womens booking, really refreshing 😀
I loved the way you utilized Rhonda without overshadowing the rumble itself
I've been wanting you to book Asuka for so long. This was a great rumble! Thanks Adam.
That final five moment gave me genuine goosebumps
Loved this re-book! It’s always bugged me that Ronda stole the spot light from Asuka, so getting rid of that was perfect.
I know “How WCW Should’ve Booked” isn’t a thing anymore but I’d love to see you re-book the New Blood vs Millionaires Club feud.
I mean, that's a super easy one: make the New Blood the faces, and the Millionaires Club the heels. You have immediately fixed 90% of the problems of the story right there.
This was amazing, I hope to see Mandy and toxci attraction representing nxt this year
I'm glad Adam enjoys booking rumbles because I enjoy watching the videos.
100% agree with the analysis of Michelle McCool, the Bellas, Asuka vs. Ember, everything.
Sometimes Adam's bookings really frustrate me because they're not real. These versions are usually always way better.
I remember Absolution, Adam.
Honestly the crux of all the issues I have with the Woman’s Royal Rumble is that they tried to make a bunch of records in the first couple of rumbles, and it should not be a rumble of records, like the first ever royal rumble didn’t try to have a bunch of records because it was an over the top rope battle royal and that was the attraction, in the first woman’s rumble you had your iron women when you really didn’t need it, however (counter acting my own point) how can you make the first woman’s rumble special, it’s a difficult issue to really tackle
I actually think I'd have burst into tears if I got to see Trish and Lita get to have a stand-off in this Rumble, would have been bloody beautiful and more than deserved
