@@MoxyOh Oh lord. Poor Big Show. He flip flopped from being the biggest monster on the roster to a clown and then back to monster. They did it over and over again.

Repeatedly compromising his credibility as a threat is another matter altogether though.
@@pelayowhitewolf3276 Lol, I'm not a Mark.

"The Self-Destruction of the Ultimate Warrior" is the most entertaining video release WWE ever made. Christian doing the WM6 "plane promo" is the funniest shit ever.
No.. they definitely fit 183,000 people into a 70,000 max stadium. And all those tournaments in Brazil were absolutely insane, you should have been there. 😊
When I was 10 and Kane unmasked in 2003, and the subsequent rampages he went on in the weeks that followed, he was the single scariest thing I had seen in my life. Absolutely terrifying stuff back then
And somehow while beging hidden by Paul Bearer and disguising himself (thinking he is disfiguringly burnt) Kane was visiting High School like a normal boy and had a girlfriend named Katie.
I’m just happy that those 2 guys in that thumbnail I watched in the mid-card as a kid, I’ll be able to say at the end of this mania, both won the world title at the show of shows
I am hoping that Roman wins and Sami Zane wins at Summer Slam it will give Roman over 1000 days. Cody should win it later instead of getting a title shot after entering at number 30 in the RR.
I can understand the Benoit thing but feel he shouldn't just be erased from History as the whole situation is a lesson in why Wrestling Companies need to pay close attention to the welfare of Performers
Trying to fake burns on Kane with make up would have been next to impossible to pull off. (or to maintain through matches) Having the dude be so messed up emotionally because it's all in his head is brilliant. You can have him do almost anything you want after that. Masked Kane was amazing, but the dude with a shaved head who acted like he was broken mentally is scary.
Thank you so much for someone shining a light on the Andre slam ordeal. I remember seeing a top 10 on UA-cam of top 10 first time achievements of all time at a ppv recently and on it was Hulk slamming Andre and it being reference that this was the first time this had happened to Andre. It upsets me to know end to play this off just to sale and poll and viewers. As impressive as it was anytime Andre was slammed, it happened multiple times before WEE making a big deal out of it
We had (good) cable as a kid, and I remember WATCHING the match where Kamala slammed Andre... then like a year later they were going on and on about Hogan being the first to do it. Lol, um... no.
The plot point of eddie as dom's dad hasn't been disregarded, he has gone out of his way to adopt a modern style the likes of the old school eddie with chyna, he wear the same hair, uses the same finisher. That boy is acting like Eddie is his dad even if it isn't mentioned out loud.
@@agentorange1156 he was a French aristocrat as hunter Hearst Helmsley. I'm not sure if he had a French accent at first when he was hunter, but he did have a French accent before that in wcw which was weird. But in wwe, he was first known as the French aristocrat. That was his gimmick. Then he was in DX and still did his bow taunt he'd do as his aristocrat gimmick for a bit while in DX with Shawn Michaels. It kinda just faded away and he shortened his name to triple h.
I see Kane storyline like this where he was not really Burned but the parents did die in the burning house and Kane mental mind went so crazy to the point where he thought he was burned by the Undertaker all thanks to the evil Paul Bear⚱️
WWE has blacklisted Chris Benoit, but Fabulous Moolah (and her many, many crimes against her fellow female wrestlers) hasn't been. Make it make sense, WWE!
@@smd89xx She stole from most of the women and prostituted them to the male wrestlers. Don't know that she killed anyone, but there was talk some of those women killed themselves as a result of Moolah's actions.
@@smd89xx that we know of. Tbh, bc of the things I recently learned she did decades ago, I wouldn't put it past a person like her to do something like that.
I’m theory, the Kane excuse isn’t that far fetched, and would’ve been a pretty good cover up if they hadn’t had those “yo look how ugly he is” moments when they “unmasked” him those few times backstage
Nobody thought that Vince McMahon changed it to WWE because he wanted to emphasize the entertainment Factor. Everybody knew it was about the World Wildlife Fund
This. I was a teenager throughout the MNW and tbh, maybe the DX invasion was a stretch and Foley's title win was the big one, but it certainly was a huge moment that contributed greatly. I mean, of the examples they gave, I don't see any of them as being incorrect.
1. WCW's closure was due to Time Warner merging with AOL. It had nothing to do with Vince or the WWF. 2. DX played little to no part in WWE's success. They were simply over, that's all. 3. Vince claimed that WCW poached talent when Vince was known for poaching talent and killing off the territories.
@@vDeadbolt 1. Nobody said anything about the closure of WCW. The MNW was pretty much over by 2000. 2. DX was involved in Austin' first world title, Mankind's win over the Rock, The screwjob, the ushering in of the Attitude era, elevating lower midcarders into the spotlight, etc. But with all that, again, I somewhat agree that their part is a bit overhyped. 3. With regards to the Monday Night Wars, talent poaching was not in Vince's best interest and the words weren't even mentioned in the video. Did WCW not buy a metric ass ton of WWE stars in their rise to the top?
The Rey/Dom angle was exposed before it even started - millions of people had already seen Rey without his mask while he was in WCW and Dom looks exactly like his dad.
WWE were right to distance themselves from Benoit. He is the one who destroyed his legacy, not them. The problem is that making him taboo has lead to this situation where some see him as a victim, which is absurd beyond belief. And no, suffering concussions is not an excuse for domestic violence and murder. Not even close.
Plus with Benoit, any match that is showen with Benoit (ie, the original MITB match) the match is show in a wide screen and far away shot.....I mean the whole match is in the view of a fan watching from the stands and not from a camera view
The Monday Night War and Prichards podcast on the Invasion,etc are absolutely ridiculous. Such BS. It's too va that generations of fans will think this was all true because they weren't alive during this time period. But glad I was.
Honestly, I think what turned the tide for real is Mankind's story and his rise to the Championship as a literal fan favorite underdog while WCW was doing the Fingerpoke of Doom. One show had it's best on, the other had it's worst.
I forget the year, but WWE Put out a "History of Wrestlemania" One off magazine some time Post-Benoit that featured pictures from each Mania, and little Blurb about Every Match (including Dark matches, IIRC) and for almost Every Match it was written as X Beats Y,... when it got to Mania XX and HHH, HBK, Benoit... there was a Picture of HBK & HHH, and the Blurb was 'HHH Loses Title in Triple Threat"
Before getting into internet or mostly as kid I always thought some wrestler were brother and siblings or cousin like HHH and HBK, Cena and Orton, Brock and Batista, Edge Christian and Jericho, Benoit and Jericho because of first name, Kane and Undertaker, Flair and McMahon, even stone cold and rock funny thing is Flair McMahon and Hogan were the grandfather and father of some and all the blonde women were from one side of family and rest were from other
@@FazeRustyNuts I was in hostel at that time so never got to see wrestling for like 6-7 yrs that's why there's mostly late attitude era and early stage of ruthless aggression era in comment but yeah if I had watched that as a kid I might have believe
I think the then World Wrestling Federation could have made a new agreement with the World Wildlife Fund that would have benefited both parties...a yearly PPV called PandaMonium from which all of (or a percentage of) the profits would be donated to the World Wildlife Fund. That way, the World Wildlife Fund makes money to support their cause and gets a lot of free publicity worldwide and the World Wrestling Federation not only gets to keep their name but also gets some good PR for helping a world famous charity and very worthy cause.
It is hilarious that even Cultaholic can't put DX in a true tank they put them in a Archilles TANK DESTROYER when bringing up them being in a jeep with a recoiless rifle
How bout the real American theme used to belong to the U.S. Express before hogan . Wm 1 hogan came out to eye of the tiger but on the network and dvd real American is dubbed in
Didn't WWE do the same thing with Matt Borme's version of Doink at first they wanted nothing to do with the character no offense to the Phil Apollo version but now they say how great Doink is despite the character losing most of his matches
I think non-wrestling fans should see this. How many of us have to tell people "I know it's storyline, I still find it entertaining!" Yessss we get it, Edge and Christian aren't brothers, guess what, we even know that the Dudleys aren't either! Yes, we know JeanPaul wasn't a French aristocrat (because he had a real crappy English accent). We know. We know. We know!
Christian or Edge? Who was better? I am on the Christian side. Always felt he was better in the ring, took the big bumps and was more entertaining. Edge gets the slight nod on the mic, but not by much.
I can't be certain but I think Hogan can lay claim to being at WrestleMania 3 and being the first to slam and beat Andre the Giant all in the same match please correct me if I am wrong about that cousin all the Andre stories I heard that wooden was never really clarified
To be truthful, both WCW and WWF had their moments of being "unwatchable clownshows" in 1997-2000. Often occurring simultaneously with each other. It wasn't anywhere close to being top-notch storytelling all the time for either company; some winners, a whole lotta losers for both of them.
The idea that Dom could be anyone's son but Rey's is laughable. As the only Filthy Animals fan, unmasked Rey is my Rey so the resemblance is really apparent to me. Give Dom horns and braces.
Kane unmasking was always so bad to me. Come on, even if he had to take it off after the loss, they couldn’t fire a makeup crew to make him look like darth Vader unmasked esque? Then he can just put the mask back on…
Remembering my childhood the 2 biggest icons at the time were Hogan and Warrior. I was such a huge fan and torn when they had their title vs title match with Warrior in the end being the one I wanted to win. Now so many years later, I hear all the back stage politics and how they both in the business as far as letting others get over were both gigantic AHOLES. It really makes,me wish I'd been a fly on the wall at the meetings before the title 4 title match just to see how those discussions went and how much of a headache they both were during the meeting trying to put over themselves as they should win.
I've had multiple head injuries and they really do fuck with your head and your stuck in position where if you tell anyone ,beacues you seek help . Your just gonna be seem as crazy so you keep trying and tell yourself it's normal we all go throw this fillings ,I'm just weak that I can't handle it like others . Then time makes it so much worst . It's fucked up what he did but the way WWE just erase him and not take. Responsibility for the position that they put him that cause most head injuries. Say what you want
