@walkermoch8217. Things during this time weren’t perfect by any means, but the shows were great during this time. The Raw tag division wasn’t that good though, in late 2005 and into 2006 was Big Show and Kane, Chris Masters and Carlito, Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch, and into 2006 the Spirit Squad, and then not much after that. Apart from Trish, Mickie and Victoria, the women’s division wasn’t good, as Lita wasn’t in the division at the time. But apart from that the upper mid card scene was really good, and the main event scene was great. Raw was really good during this time.
I think everyone was fine honestly. Very few people ever actually got caught and they'd all been slowly cut back probably. Vince is essentially their dealer. There's no way he'd actually catch his top guys on steroids.
@@user-ez9ng2rw9c I think you could tell which guys were fine and which guys weren’t, especially with guys like cena walking around 🤣🤣 feel bad for Chris masters tho they nerfed him big style
@@user-im8ru2bt7u Oh I mean fine purely in the sense that they were not caught. Most of them were absolutely destroying their bodies and probably their minds on the roids. Im talking more just about that considering vince probably gave the drugs to them indirectly and he was probably the one organising the testing they likely found easy workarounds for it.
@@user-im8ru2bt7uI sent a previous message but not sure if it reached. Yeah I don't doubt that tons of dudes were taking them at the time, but vince was basically their indirect supplier. He'd never get them caught via testing, and testing was probably meant as a pr move. Vince loved big guys.
this was an awesome episode of raw can't believe this happened 19-years ago almost 20-years it's really been that long lol time flies great episode of the deadlock podcast i haven't watched this episode of raw since it first aired in 2005.
Dmitri Young actually played for the Detroit Tigers at the time he appeared at _Survivor Series_ 2005. Edge and Lita cracked jokes about how much the Tigers sucked, and Young took shots at Edge for not winning the title. So, yeah, as a Michigander and Detroit Tigers fan, by about a month after this _RAW_ , I was extremely embarrassed as to how Young’s comments had suddenly aged like year past expiration curdled milk in the 135°F Death Valley desert sun in the Mojave Desert.
I have a Mandela effect with this RAW, I swore Cena FU'd Bischoff from the ring into the garbage truck until I rewatched it recently. EDIT: AH! STINKY! STINKY TRUCK! AAH!
**PCW UK owner visits DVD bootlegger..along with Chris Masters** I found a forum discussing it but the video is private. Maybe someone more dedicated than me can sign up and ask
I usually don't like the observer segment of these videos I just like to get to the actual show but y'all had me literally in tears from laughing for 7 minutes straight 😂😆😆
Not sure if Deadlock takes requests but the Raw HBK joins the NWO or the raw that the NWO had their last match it was a 10 man Main event that Nash torn his quad
@@TeamKP1 So the Raw roster during this time was Edge, Cena, RVD, Triple H, Kane, Big Show, Ric Flair, Kurt Angle, Shawn Michaels, Shelton Benjamin, Carlito And the SmackDown roster during this time was Taker, Batista, Booker T, JBL, Rey Mysterio, Orton, Mark Henry, Matt Hardy, Mr Kennedy, Finlay, William Regal So the roster looks fucking stacked of top main event talent and good mid carders. 2005/2006 was fucking stacked up the top, and some great mid card guys as well.
@@NuMetalfan1996it was stacked but it wasn’t good dude big no huge difference I get it’s your era and you grew up on this era but dude no way you can call this goated smackdown in 2006 was awful dude
I know really. He would had been a world champion or somewhat of a champ on the upper midcard during his WWE tenure. Plus he still wrestles to this day, and was at one point the WWC Universal Heavyweight Champion a few months ago
dont forget the peep show when christian came back. they had cutting edge, peep show, highlight reel, and i think miz tv was just starting around that time
My JR and Stonecold are based heavily on yours because I can emulate it MUCH better than how I can emulate their actual voices. It's wild and dumb to explain, but it is what it is.
When they said guess the teams my brain went to like Rob Conway and Sylvian Grenier and the highlanders. And some throwaway shit. Val Venis on raw in 05 feels like a damn fever dream. Tomko and snitsky happened? When. Wtf did I miss. Christian was gone but I thought tomko bailed like immediately.
@JitteryJackanape. Conway and Sylvain had broken up by this point. Sylvain was on SmackDown by this point, with a Model gimmick. Conway was on Raw with a Buff Bagwell type gimmick. The Highlanders hadn’t yet debuted, they would debut In the summer of 2006. Tomko was still around, he was released in April 2006. Hurricane turned heel on Rosey by this point and his Gregory Helms stuff was just starting So the Tag division by December 2005 was just 3 teams Big Show and Kane (would only be a team from September 2005 to May 2006) Chris Masters and Carlito (would only be a team from November 2005 to April 2006) Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch And that was it really, unless you count the jobber teams of Val Venis and Viscera and The Heartthrobs (Antonio and Romeo). And The Hearthrobes would get released by February 2006. The Spirit Squad would debut in February 2006, but they would only be around until November 2006. WWE just kept releasing everyone during this time period, from 2002 to 2016, WWE and Vince had a 14 year obsession of releasing everyone. Tag Teams, Cruiserweights, and Women were always the first to get the axe when it came to releases. From 2016 to 2020, no one was getting released in WWE and WWE were hoarding talent. Then from 2020 to 2022, fucking everyone got released.
@NuMetalfan1996 man I really don't remember it getting that bad. That's crazy. Smackdown had MNM by this point and London and Kendrick had to be starting soonish? That's a rough time for tags. I know they let the dudleyz go so vince probably just said fuck it. With how bad it sounds I wouldn't be shocked if they considered retiring the tag belts all together.
@@JitteryJackanape Raw and SmackDown were good shows though at this point. The main event and mid card scenes were great on both Raw and SmackDown. But the Tag division on Raw was lacking, which is why they had to pair Big Show and Kane, and Carlito and Masters as short term teams for a bit. The Dudley’s were long gone by this point, their last appearance on SmackDown was in November 2004. And then The Dudley’s had a break as creative had nothing for them, and The Dudley’s last WWE appearance was at One Night Stand in June 2005, as their contract ran out and they didn’t want to re sign. SmackDown had a better Tag division as by this point it was Morrison/Nitro and Mercury London and Kendrick The Mexicools (though Juventude would get released in January 2006 because he’s Juventude and always rubs people the wrong way) Animal and Heidenreich as the new LOD, though Heidenreich would get released in February 2006. Then you had the jobber teams that weren’t good like The Dicks The Gymini Twins But those two teams would get released in early 2006. So SmackDown had the better tag division for a little bit. Vince just didn’t like Tag, Cruiserweight, or Women’s wrestling, and he liked releasing everyone. But the shows were still good at this point, like I said the main event and mid card scenes at this point were great.
@NuMetalfan1996 oh yeah no raw and smackdown were more than solid. We had prime angle, Edge, Batista, Orton, mysterio, Cena, Undertaker and HHH. We had hbk back on weekly TV. Kane. Big show. It's a great roster. I just don't remember the tag division being so light. I guess I'm blending 06 and 05 in my mind. Cause I'd have sworn the spirit squad started up at like survivor series but yeah its not until about rumble. Cause they get involved in the vince hbk storyline.

The shit with the talk show crap for me is im not a huge fan of RAW being 3 hours and it really does just feel like filler and if you need that much filler just knock it back down to 2 and have more matches with some mid card guys.
