This has to be some of the best wrestling documentaries I’ve ever seen as a wrestling fan since 1997 I can say I have seen most wrestling documentaries... very well done 🙂✌️!
BrianFalconsFan2 if you cant handle the lifestyle then why pursue it? if something has a terrible effect on your life and health then your drop out immediately but the fact is most wrestlers were just looking for an easy paycut and easy access to drugs.
I will never understand why Pro Wrestlers were targeted for steroids. It's not a competitive sport in the sense that someone is gaining an unfair advantage. What's the issue with Pro Wrestlers who want to take steriods? Let them do it!
Just for the fact they’re illegal substances. You can’t just say oh musicians need on stage energy to tour so much why aren’t they allowed to use cocaine. It’s not affecting the performance etc.
@@crutt1026 but when most of them were taking them before the steroid trial they were legal, so wtf is your bullshit point? You can't fucking compare steroids to cocaine idiot. Cocaine is a much more dangerous and addictive drug, so what you said is the most dumbest fucking comparison i ever heard in my life.
If wwe had a more limited and flexible schedule wrestlers on the roster wouldn’t be doing steroids or drugs like traveling 300 days a year on the road is to much
@niall joeseph Why does the Women's Roster matter in Wrestling?? These things matter cause it's an acknowledgment of Women, and their contribution in Wrestling.
I am Vegeta. And I see a whole army of my countrymen, here in defiance of tyranny! You have come to fight as free men. And free men you are! What will you do with that freedom? Will you fight? Fight and you may die. Run and you will live, at least a while, then dying in your beds many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies
Wow I can see this channel take off like what culture wrestling . I remember when what culture had a few thousand subs and overnight it blew off. Good thing I'm here this early.
***** bro they took off not that long ago. I've been subbed to them for a few months. Aslong as you keep your content original (so far you are) you'll get big. I came across your channel thru the suggested vids. You'll make it big !
Jim Duggan on cocaine? I seem to recall him getting on the microphone, yelling into it, and the finally culminating in yelling "WOOoooooo!" into the mic. You mean to tell me that he was on cocaine? Color me shocked!
I would just like you to know that by far.. this series on your channel is by far my favorite.. It talks about stuff that average don't know.. while im well aware of alot of this stuff.. the little info is awesome to know.. Thanks Wrestlelamia
Late reply but Jake talked about it during his podcast with Joe Rogan. Jake called the "Just Say No" campaign the most ridiculous bullshit ever thought up and very cruel to people who can't "Just Say No"
Or have two divisions, one wrestles at the beginning of the year and the other wrestles at the second half of the year. That way they can keep the content going all year without burning out the wrestlers or the viewing audience who gets sick of seeing the same handful of guys all year long.
Hogan always said take your vitamins, didn't know he was talking about roids hahaha This, along with the Kevin Nash interview where he brags about splitting 100 soma 3 ways reminds me of that movie "The Wrestler" with Mickey Rourke
@@andrewmann4067 Ok, he didn't insult your god, he did not call him false or mythical only questioned you since in Greek culture there were many gods, and your one of the reasons why I pushed myself from christianity, people like you judge even though your god is the only one to do so, so Karma will come to you because your God is the only one to call for hell fire when nobody asks him to.
You do great videos man I was born in the 90's so learning all these interesting facts about the industry I grew up idolizing is amazing keep up the great work you definitely got a new fan 💯
Vince created that culture of roid abuse back in the day and it has been a contributing factor in the deaths of so many of its former stars. Vince has to take his share of the blame for that i'm afraid. tragic
NG 22 yeah when you’re a billionaire you can buy the kind of “steroids” that legitimately make you super human and have no negative affects if taken correctly of course he would
Great video, and very informative. You're doing a fantastic job with your videos, from editing to sound quality to overall presentation. You've earned a subscriber here. On a side note, since you mentioned the backup plan for if Vince had gone to jail, do you think that you might be able to give an alternate history theory on if that had actually happened? For example, how the industry would have been affected overall for the next 10 to 20 years?
***** I did not know about the Jake Roberts connection. I know that he was the subject of the legendary Austin 3:16 promo, but that was all that I knew on that particular matter. I think that WWE would have fallen into the position that TNA and ROH are in now, where they are an arguably niche product that is too large to be just another indy but too small to be a national power. As for overall impact on the wrestling business, I'm not entirely sure how to perceive that. I don't think the wrestling industry would have boomed in the late 1990's, because that was a direct result of the Monday Night War and the rise of ECW. At this point, I believe that it the NWA would have regained prominence, though you'd end up with multiple territories with television or pay per view. WCW still had an incompetent string of managers. I think ECW is a toss up.
Alex Lusio that steel cage promo with Macho King, Zeus, and Queen Sherri... that was wild stuff man. It's on UA-cam for you younger guys. Crazy entertaining
I remember as kids talking about these guys being on steroids and thanks to wrestlamia we are getting a closer look at what I looked at as the best days of wrestling I think a lot of steroids use are used today and when they say someone is violating the wellness policy 9-10 it's recreational drugs
I wouldn't mind playing a Total Extreme Wrestling mod where Jerry Jarrett took over Vince's position after the steroid scandal, btw. Or one where the WWF goes bankrupt because Wrestlemania turned out to be a gigantic failure. I am a big fan of these "what if" scenarii.
If Jerry Jarrett took over, he'd have probably fused the USWA with the WWF to compete against the WCW, not before a purge of the staff members strongly identified to Vince's organization. Some northern style alternative would take the helm of the WWF in the Tri-State because nature hates voids, but I doubt the undetermined promotion would grow to be as big as the WWE of today. The Southern vision of pro-wrestling would prevail, unless some innovator managed to hack his way through JJ's system.
Amazing video. Always curious to see about some of these specific behind the scenes controversies. Another one would be the sex scandal in the early 90s.
The most interesting videos about wrestling you really go behind the scenes of what really goes on about wrestling because wrestling can be good and bad
Yoo you da man for dat rvd sabu vid.Never even thought to look for it,let alone think one existed.This a good no nonsense approach to tell stories from every side with good info👍.Kinda hard to do with wrestling these days.
this was a great episode I will be watching more I'm glad I subscribed however you make these videos you are awesome I'm jealous I wish I could be as good as you make them videos but what you did was great keep up the good work
This was a really interesting video and well put together. Strangely I came across the second episode about Owen Hart first. I assume you'll be covering the Benoit tragedy and the Jimmy Snuka situation in future episodes?
I think the only reason Vince was let off was due to the fact of Nailz cuz he said he hated Vince so with that being said he was just saying stuff to put Vince out of biz & behind bars also another reason is there was no evidence that Vince was directly giving the roids to his wrestlers so those are the top two reasons that I think
Bruno Sammartino said that, that's the reason why WWE hires jobbers. They use them as fall-guys whenever shit hits the fan. When Brian Pillman died some pro wrestlers said on the news everyone's goes to Hogan/Mexico for steroids. Because he can teach the game, and how to use steroids as well.
Love your vids bro! Awesome material !! i cant even watch wwe now a days.. all i can watch now is wrestle-mania.. thank god for wwe network can watch all the good stuff everyday now and don't have to watch the crap that on now..
What would have happened? well if ECW would not kickstart the Attitude Era than Bischoff (you know the lesser known Evil CEO) might have, suffice to say that there would be some itteration of attitude era regardless of WWF involvement) it would however allow ECW to sink way sooner, possibly to a point when some of their tallent might not be prominent enough to get picked up by WcW or WWF. so Maybe Ratings war would happen but maybe not monday night wars. WcW had better tallent at this point but they did have Prichard too so i am assuing they would have gone into simillar problems for first half of 90s, but given that there might not have been monday nights thing there might have been far less contested later 90s. Maybe even to a point of WcW surviving bit longer (depending on who'd run it tho).
This came out before hand so at the time it was widely believed as fact, but Bruce Prichard has stated Jerry Jerret would NOT have taken over control of the WWF.
I don't think the attitude era would have happened without Vince. The Attitude era and the nWo years in the WCW were all about spectacle, about storylines and events, not about pure wrestling.
Smoky Doggg that was obvious. The People's Elbow and The Worm were two of Anti-Wrestling finishing move. The Rock and Scotty did those things to entertain the fans.
Behind the Titantron is the best documentary series on UA-cam, brother!

That‘s the price you pay.
Do you get mad at the local circus for traveling
Why do you think they were all coke heads in the 80/90’s
If wwe had a more limited and flexible schedule wrestlers on the roster wouldn’t be doing steroids or drugs like traveling 300 days a year on the road is to much

The eerie background music really adds to these videos
WWE needs an off season to at least a month like November
Or have two divisions, one wrestles at the beginning of the year and the other wrestles at the second half of the year. That way they can keep the content going all year without burning out the wrestlers or the viewing audience who gets sick of seeing the same handful of guys all year long.
BrianFalconsFan2 August through May sounds good to me.
And off season wouldn't work for the type of business wwe is. I will say that they should get guaranteed time off in their contracts though
September to January. That way there would be no interference with football season.
