2:22 *You know what the real reason Bret had to stop wrestling? It wasn’t the Goldberg kick. It was the fact that he wrestled 9 more times in the next 3 weeks, including the NEXT NIGHT on nitro where he wrestled Goldberg again. If he had taken a few months off he would probably still be wrestling today.*
Also, there was the figure four around the ringpost spot. When Bret fell backwards, he smacked his head on the floor. Surely it contributed to his concussion.
@@camper32a *Exactly. And since wrestlers smack themselves against those things all the time you figure these huge multi million dollar companies could get some kind of padding for things like that, like they eventually did for the floor. So Bret needs to get it through his head that Goldberg might have initiated it, but the true reason is because of Uber rich bosses who make their money off of the literal blood sweat and tears of their performers, not giving a shit about their performers. If they did they wouldn’t be independent contractors. Like I guarantee if given the choice VKM would choose to give himself another $250,000 instead of giving 5 of his lower level employees a million each*
Having that match between Buff Bagwell and Booker T, which was a middling match at best, in Seattle wasn't going to work anyway. That match should have taken place the following week in Atlanta (aka WCW's backyard). We all know why the Invasion angle that followed it failed. Vince never had any intention of presenting any WCW wrestlers as credible threats to his WWE wrestlers. Every chance Vince had to bury a WCW guy, he did.
I get that Bret would be annoyed but Goldberg has apologised about 6 trillion times and he's said he's not going to keep saying he's sorry. Bret has the right to be upset and it is a shame, but he brings it up almost every day. Time to just accept that accidents happen Bret, get over it.
Might be an unpopular opinion, but I think the proto-Claymore Drew hit on Ryback (as well as some of them he'd hit while in 3MB) was the superior Clamore haha. It actually looked like it made real contact and wasn't just Drew flying by them with a loud thigh slap haha.
To be fair, regarding the final point on the list, Summerslam 1997 IS memorable for having one of the best scripted intros to the PPV itself and the big main event match that was preying upon the HBK/Bret heat.
With Summerslam ‘18, would Becky becoming the man had happened like it did if Brooklyn didn’t reject the heel turn? The hat would have happened if it and Smackdown had taken place somewhere else where they didn’t fully back Becky as their chosen one?
Reminds me that Vince (and I guess Triple H as well) hold it against wrestlers for getting injured (Finn in 2016, Ali in 2019) during huge pushes, which is ultra hypocritical. Ali's career never recovered, and Finn's only just has got back on track with The Judgment Day...
The Screwjob! If everything went down “normally“, do we get the Mr. McMahon character? And the Corporation? Who becomes Austin’s antagonist in an era-defining feud that helped WWF turn the tide in its ratings battle against WCW?
The keyword is "unexpected". Bret leaving on those terms was gonna be an inevitable shitshow. All parties should get credit for turning that around, but SS '97 was never gonna have normal results.
Man poor Simon sounds half dead. Maybe three quarters dead. Get well soon buddy, you are the best thing this channel has and one of the best things on youtube!
McIntyre really became a star after returning to WWE after a stint as Impact champion then he won the NXT title then eventually the WWE title but he was released shortly after the Ryback match along with the rest of 3MB
Yeah Kofi Kingston was treated just like Jinder Mahal and pretty much forgotten after he lost the belt. At least Kofi has had some tag team success. Jinder didn't even get that.
Gotta feel for the WWE fan reaction prediction team. 99/100 times when they book a heel like a babyface the WWE Universe boo's. But with Becky they cheered. It's impossible to predict them.
@@samukelisiwemudau3553 Sure it wasn't, you can still say an incident was someones fault. Owen made a mistake with his positioning, maybe he wasn't used to piledriving wrestlers as tall as Stone Cold, being more of a cruiserweight. It's unfair to 'blame him' like he did it on purpose, but he still did make a mistake.
Similarly, HBK hurting his back and having 4 years off. Meant he could come back fit and have one of the greatest runs from the mid 2000s to his retirement. So many great matches, great feuds (Taker, Jericho etc) that would probably not had happened had he carried on. He'd have probably got worn down and retired earlier and/or gotten a worse injury. It was a shame at the time but looking back, it all worked out. He did quite well in his career, looking back.
Wasn't Booker v Bagwell the main event of that RAW also? Seems like a mis-step. That would be confusing. Have it in a little earlier on in the show. With some kind of build to try to get ppl to care.
I wonder if Gildberg is Saha Banks favorite wrestler given she put Saraya out of action for years with a dangerous kick like Goldberg ended Brett's career with a dangerous kick
He quit a few times around then, that being one time. But no, he finally hung it up the following year after his match with the rock(and a very bad scare in the hospital just hours beforehand)
When Drew McIntyre accidentally came up with the Claymore Kick reminded me of when Jake accidentally came up with the DDT
FACTS it’s soo weird how drew and jake both came up with their finishers from botches.

Yeah that was such a disappointment. The way he did DDP was insane, he could have made a bunch of money from a DDP vs Rock storyline.

Ironic that 3MB now has more World Championships than Ryback.

Bret Hart literally will bitch and whine about how unfair everything was to him when the truth is he brought it all on himself starting with Montreal
The women's money in the bank 2020 or actually the next Monday night when Becky Lynch told Auska that the title was in the briefcase.
I thought Owen Hart was a great wrestler and may he rest in peace but I blame him for shortening Stone Cold’s career.
really it was not intentional bruh
Accident can happen and it wasn't intentional.

stone cold being dropped on his head, cut most likely 10-15 years off his career
