The first years of Saudi were truly some of the world’s worst PPVs of ALL TIME. Years of botches, disasters, cringe, current day talents being buried, it was all awful stuff. DX Vs Brothers of Destruction, Undertaker Vs Goldberg, Goldberg Vs The Fiend, etc. I’m glad these years are passed us now, and that Saudi shows for the most part are now ok to awesome.

I will never forgive that 2019 show for basically killing the Kofi Kingston title run for a UFC rematch that time forgot. I don’t care what your thoughts are for that Kofi title run, it deserved a better ending than less than 10 second squash and immediately after, have a match with an injured signee with minimal training just to lose to Brock.
I just want to wipe that DX vs BOD match away from my memory, it was so sad to see them like that. Also I can’t believe that was really Shawn Michael’s “last match” he should’ve let the iconic match with Taker at WM 26 be his last because it was PERFECT

I'm not even joking right now, reliving all of these moments just made my body feel physically exhausted lol. This just unlocked so many horrible memories of when I sometimes hated being a wrestling fan 😭THANK GOD WE MADE IT THROUGH
The crowd atmosphere in the Lars Sullivan vs. Lucha House Party match is literally what 2020 WWE would sound like. The fact that the match ended on a DQ from LHP jumping Lars made me even understand more for why the crowd is just dead silent. Good bloody grief.
As far as I know from people working with the GEA that Vince was the big reason behind these RIDICULOUSNESS that was on the Saudi Shows he tried to impress HE Turki Al Alshaik and the Crown Prince by making crazy matches and sacrificing the quality of the matches and shows to get paid extra the moment Vince Left and HHH took control which is what was the GEA and Turki wanted from the beginning everything became better
To answer the question at the end of the video: I stopped watching WWE (excluding NXT) in 2018 bc the creative direction and no bright futures in the company, and then The Fiend brought me back. When the Firefly Funhouse debuted he made me start watching again. So then they have Oldberg beat The Fiend in 2 minutes. Absolutely wild
Saudi shows have come a long way. The 2023 night of champions is one my favorite shows . They went from a propaganda show to just a ppv in Saudi Arabia. That Goldberg taker match almost made me quit wrestling.
Booking makes logical sense, there’s continuity Vince literally admitted that he forgot his own booking decisions week after week Does that sound like someone who should be writing a TV show?
Literally from 2017-2021WWE was 2000 WCW bad. The reason why AEW was as white hot as it was during 2019-2022 was because the WWE product was absolute dog shit. Vince being forced to step down was a blessing in disguise. Thank god for HHH. Undoing and restarting the product wasn't an easy task. Hunter should have been the head booker 5 years ago.
I really forgot how hilariously bad the DX vs brothers of Destruction and taker vs Goldberger match was Thanks Pav for bringing back repressed memories
Thank God he was able to properly end on his own terms with a worthy opponent with AJ Styles. Even though it was a matter of circumstances, it was the best case scenario for him compared to Kurt Angle vs. Baron Corbin instead of John Cena and Ric Flair almost dying in the ring.
I was in wwe smackdown in Jeddah yesterday! It was genuinely was different than the greatest royal rumble and supershowdown (which I both attended). These two events had whatever matches but it was still hype seeing my childhood heroes! But smackdown had an amazing crowd! Half the stadium singing voices and kingdom was genuinely one of the best experiences of my life. Half the crowd was sorta dead but I feel like if they were all chanting then it would have been better than the backlash crowd! (seeing Goldberg and undertaker kill each other was genuinely depressing)
At that point you’d probably have to ask yourself if they’re truly wrestling fans or not. Tbh I feel like they probably aren’t. I can understand if they don’t know everything no one does but they couldn’t research on the internet about Yokozuna? What next bring back Daniel Bryan even tho he’s in aew now and under a different name?
Dx vs brothers of destruction was botched, i feel like it would've been perfect if it was early 2000s or 90s but seeing them wrestling when they're retired was just underwhelming
As for Crown Jewel 2018, The Eminem Just Lose It Instrumental playing in the background is genius. Thank U WrestlingGifs for recognizing the greatness of Encore. DX and Brothers Of Destruction was looking for an Encore too.
@@WrestlinGifs WrestlinGifs My Dawg, Encore is an underrated Nostalgic Eminem classic for real. I'm also a John Cena Fan as well to the point where I was debating with My Grandpa in 2012 that Dr Chain Gang Hustle Loyalty Respect was going to beat The Rock at Wrestlemania 28 in Miami while He kept telling me Rocky was going to win the Once In A LifeTime match. Cena''s Album released a year after Encore too. As for the Intro of Encore...... I can't believe we got another match between Taker & Shawn, Taker & Shawn, Taker & Shawn, Taker & Shawn, Taker & Shawn, Taker & Shawn . The Spongebob Movie also released around the same week in November 2004 and seeing Shawn Micheals Baaaald in 2018 was a shock. The Beat for Evil Deeds is on my Ten Eminem Instrumentals list. It just gets You hype. Plus it was the perfect intro for the album since Encore is the repeated or additional performance of a show at the end of a concert by the Performer that the audience wants and Shady was just getting a lot of worldwide support and critical acclaim from the incredible success from The Eminem Show at the time. The Curtains on both albums just made even more cooler and poetic.
Just wanted to say that yours and superkick studios are the only 2 wrestling channels I keep up with. Both of you guys are very easy to listen to. Tl;Dr - Big fan, notification bell and everything
As a Saudi, the subtle bigotry is astonishing. “The rich Saudi crowed just wanted to take pictures for their stories” were not all rich, and crowds taking pics on their phones is not unique to Saudi. This happens everywhere. “The Saudis wanting … the Saudis wanted… the Saudis brought…” what’s up with the collective referencing? Sounds like someone saying “the blacks”. It’s the promoters and the people in charge of the entertainment industry, which is Turki AlSheikh and his team. It’s like 3-4 people, why do you keep saying “the Saudis” as if we move in a collective unit like robots. Just shows your ignorance and preconception of Saudi.
And when he says the “Saudis”, he’s referring to the kingdom as they were sending requests to Vince for what should be on the show, like idk, Yokozuna and Ultimate Warrior who are both dead
Goldberg hooking his own leg was pretty funny though. (Kayfabe commentator cover-up) "Taker choke-slammed him so hard that his body instinctively assumed the pin position."
They wanted to make a second Wrestlemania but with much 'bigger' matches. What came out was a mess and a waste of time. Let's hope that now with Hunter in charge, things will be better.
Greatest Royal Rumble was the last WWE show I watched until Survivor Series 2022 hated the product and just stopped watching wrestling altogether around this time, it's honestly a miracle how good the last few years have been after watching this

Cena''s Album released a year after Encore too. As for the Intro of Encore...... I can't believe we got another match between Taker & Shawn, Taker & Shawn, Taker & Shawn, Taker & Shawn, Taker & Shawn, Taker & Shawn . The Spongebob Movie also released around the same week in November 2004 and seeing Shawn Micheals Baaaald in 2018 was a shock. The Beat for Evil Deeds is on my Ten Eminem Instrumentals list. It just gets You hype. Plus it was the perfect intro for the album since Encore is the repeated or additional performance of a show at the end of a concert by the Performer that the audience wants and Shady was just getting a lot of worldwide support and critical acclaim from the incredible success from The Eminem Show at the time. The Curtains on both albums just made even more cooler and poetic.
2017-19 was the reason behind AEW!
I know, 2017-2019 is the worst period in WWE history. We get it.
Current AEW makes me wish AEW never existed if what they're putting on TV now is genuinely the best they can do.
@@dallasarnold1803 New Generation Era was probably even worse

12:47 “CTE hat trick “ I’m crying 😂😂😂
These shows shows were more depressing than my grandma dying
I think the super show down match in Melbourne Australia between Undertaker and Triple H is forgotten but it was actually pretty good to my memory
Its 2.26 am in India
Just when I was going to bed,this drops
I guess I will sit through it
Just wanted to say that yours and superkick studios are the only 2 wrestling channels I keep up with. Both of you guys are very easy to listen to.
Tl;Dr - Big fan, notification bell and everything
17:25 background music?
RIP Pav's Grandma . 🕊🕊♥️ . She a legend .
As a Saudi, the subtle bigotry is astonishing. “The rich Saudi crowed just wanted to take pictures for their stories” were not all rich, and crowds taking pics on their phones is not unique to Saudi. This happens everywhere. “The Saudis wanting … the Saudis wanted… the Saudis brought…” what’s up with the collective referencing? Sounds like someone saying “the blacks”. It’s the promoters and the people in charge of the entertainment industry, which is Turki AlSheikh and his team. It’s like 3-4 people, why do you keep saying “the Saudis” as if we move in a collective unit like robots. Just shows your ignorance and preconception of Saudi.
Meanwhile, in France, with a smaller attendance, mind you, has the cameras shaking literally the whole show 😂
I’m pretty sure those seats are very expensive
And when he says the “Saudis”, he’s referring to the kingdom as they were sending requests to Vince for what should be on the show, like idk, Yokozuna and Ultimate Warrior who are both dead
Goldberg hooking his own leg was pretty funny though. (Kayfabe commentator cover-up) "Taker choke-slammed him so hard that his body instinctively assumed the pin position."
They wanted to make a second Wrestlemania but with much 'bigger' matches. What came out was a mess and a waste of time. Let's hope that now with Hunter in charge, things will be better.
I thought SummerSlam was supposed to be that #2
@javi994, it is. The Saudis thought they knew better and wanted to surpass them both.
Greatest Royal Rumble was the last WWE show I watched until Survivor Series 2022 hated the product and just stopped watching wrestling altogether around this time, it's honestly a miracle how good the last few years have been after watching this
“Used to be” 💀
It’s literally better now don’t crap on triple h
@@rm3869 Triple Nose glazer moment
@@WTW4these hhh glazers are wild. Watch in less than 2 years when they turn on him
Last years crown jewel was just fine
@@pleaseshutup7053like how he turned on HBK 😂
8:30 the geniuses of Saudi Arabia thought this was a good idea. It almost like they don’t know how getting old works.

I’m washed like Undertaker in Saudi Arabia 🥲
@@WrestlinGifs LMAO
@@WrestlinGifsOr Vince in the creative meetings
Icy champion
In supershowdown 2019 the crowd was so dead you could hear the referee yell "what the hell are you doing?!"
After watching the Goldberg Vs Undertaker match I had to go rinse my eyes with Ric Flair Vs Ricky Steamboat matches😶
Crazy that we're going back to a non canon Goldberg Saudi show next week 😆
Sami vs Gable vs Reed was perhaps one of the best Triple Threat matches of all time
Heard they were even asking for Hogan VS Savage match at this Saudi Show
you’re serious? wtf are these idiots smoking?! 😂
That image of all four of them laying in the ring, is sad and hilarious at the same time.
WWE Saudi shows under Vince felt like glorified house shows but ever since Triple H took over in 2022 the shows have had memorable moments.
