    Always wondered, how many knees did Ahmed Johnson think he had?

    The Bret/Shawn feud around this time was at its zenith. Both guys did whatever they could to get the upper hand on one another. All leading up to the infamous locker room brawl the night after this show, in which Bret ripped out clumps of Shawn’s hair.

    Worst injury time was post King of the Ring 2001.
    Triple H injured his quad. Chris B. broke his neck. Austin & Angle both bang up but good enough to act, so they had that 3-4 week spand trying to cheer up Vince McMahon without taking a bump.

    On the Hitman HBK rival sit down interview with Jim Ross….it’s apparent that Bret wasn’t being truthful claiming he honestly forgot his line. In the actual clip….you can see two WWF officials in suits outside the ring right in front of Bret telling him to wrap it up.

      Could be that. Or it could be Bret wasn't wrapping it up because like he said, he couldn't remember the closing line that would que Shawn superkicking him.

    This is my exact problem with wrestling now......I'm in my late 20s and grew up with the end of the attitude Era, etc.....the fact that the Lawler promo on the Rhodes family is considered "offensive" and is looked down upon is absolute bullshit to me. As a wrestling fan, Ik wrestling has always poked the bear at current politics, gone after people with shooting promos like Bret/Shawn or Piper, Slaughter,etc.....those guys were all HOF talent......I literally can't watch wrestling now because of the tip-toeing on eggshells on promos or angles.....it's just absolute nonsense. I understand why they do it because it's a public company and also making $ globally, but I just wish that wrestling never lost its roots of being an art like comedy. Touching all subjects of life and not caring who got offended, pushing the envelope, etc.....sorry for the rant, but damn man.....I miss the way wrestling used to be.

    In 1997 this is one of the most best years of wrestling. It was so over the top that you have to make sure you caught it every Monday night whether it was nitro or raw…. When anyone talks about the best years of pro wrestling in my personal opinion, and I think many other people would agree is 1996 1997 and 1998 and by late 1999 it was starting to go downhill. The momentum was fading by that time.
