hatching that the shading on it oh it's  fantastic very nice yeah it's fantastic i  
00:03:10
love the you hate my t-shirt coloring right  now i love the coloring on the word bar  
00:03:17
you know the bar cans they do like the cream soda  and things like that yeah i think that they have  
00:03:22
like diagonal lines on it as well so um it's  a good little brushy bonus thing that if you  
00:03:28
notice it you're kind of mark out so ah so  what does cass right here so does he have  
00:03:33
a little force any kind of group of prospects  hanging around outside that smoke so past rights
00:03:45
you guys got me through quarantine  in its early stages when i fell into  
00:03:50
a depression i wanted to honor you for getting  me through a tough point here is my boy stable  
00:03:56
oh thank you me thank you  okay six i did most of that  
00:04:04
two and a half team depression what  the [ __ ] steve complete that okay  
00:04:10
coming in at six and five oh we have tag team boys  i love tag team boys so chronic brian adams and  
00:04:18
brian clark fantastic yeah big boys beefy brief i  only saw them in the invasion and they were buried  
00:04:26
and i don't think they deserved it okay they  had a bad match guess what soda taker and kane  
00:04:31
that's very true they were also in the match  and they were also [ __ ] so they didn't get  
00:04:34
buried did they to be fair taker at that time was  breaking down as well he wasn't in the best shape  
00:04:40
i mean to be fair it's mostly chronic  spells even though they were both in  
00:04:45
the business for a long time they were both  green and just not very good shaking like a  
00:04:55
and bunch of roast since veronica showed up chris  canyon yep great wrestler very solid bumps like a  
00:05:03
boss as well for people that i don't say don't  deserve it but who do you wrestle on tumblr
00:05:16
find out in the next episode bumping for  cruiserweights despite being a monster  
00:05:21
event so big thumbs up to you yeah dude is huge  had a good look fantastic wrestler innovative  
00:05:27
should have been a bigger deal than he was left  yeah prime boy definitely uh but you mentioned  
00:05:32
it last time the lisp probably held him back  a bit yeah and just being aware that he has it  
00:05:36
as well would have made me reluctant to cut  promos yeah sure it is a shame the more it  
00:05:40
is now is horrible yeah it was great great for me  personally looking back on it but if you're in 96  
00:05:47
geez like i love mortal kombat but that's so late
00:05:59
number three vincent the roh guy not  virgil oh controversial keeping all the  
00:06:07
money in as well at this time what can oral  h offer me in terms of unlimited breadsticks
00:06:15
a free bowl of marinara sauce to go with it  oh okay how does that sound vinnie marseiglia  
00:06:22
oh my god vinnie yeah i actually know the name  oh yeah he's from he's from impact but after he  
00:06:28
would have stopped watching yeah ring of honor six  time world champion sorry six time tag champion  
00:06:34
what do you think of his tattoos uh yeah  that's that's a significant full-on sleeves  
00:06:39
yeah yeah yeah he's got a good look okay  jay get your dukes up oh gonna have a fight  
00:06:46
oh dear test oh the second time in a row well my  boy gets around he's he's uh everyone gets voices  
00:06:54
get tested we don't know what's going on get  tested if he was around what an amazing gimmick  
00:07:02
why did he never have it ah obviously i'm just  going to bring up everyone go watch kingdom in  
00:07:07
2002 himself and brock lesnar battered the [ __  ] out of each other made better because tess is  
00:07:12
obviously on his way down because he had his big  thing in 2000's brock is on his way up he's a  
00:07:16
little bit better about it let's tear lumps out  of each other thumbs up oh that that is at least  
00:07:21
the 16th time you've mentioned that match on this  show it's really good it's almost as good as pear
00:07:28
haven't been mentioning
00:07:35
oh my god excellent i want everyone to have tess  as a boy i think there should be certain like  
00:07:41
kind of social housing as part of the stable  apartments for year-round boys you know evergreen  
00:07:47
boys like ed leslie he should drift in and  out whatever he wants oh it's kind of like  
00:07:52
like a retirement home almost yeah yeah but like  i don't want him staying like a halfway house  
00:07:59
perfect he can't leave his gear there you know  move on it's it's like during the day you have  
00:08:05
to bring it with you you can bring it when  you're going to sleep come back have your soup  
00:08:09
go to sleep but in the morning you have to sorry  like you have to take your sheets and go you have  
00:08:14
to be out by quarterback gotcha he can live in  the b b the boy and breakfast for the bed and boy
00:08:25
see what you've done here cass you  go to the bed and boy uh when you  
00:08:29
when you leave you have to get tested
00:08:35
number one yep prime boy one of the greatest  wastes in wwe history could have been something  
00:08:42
special you know um i'm not telling you something  you didn't already know sean o'hare shawn o'hara  
00:08:46
sean o'hara fantastic goddammit piper [  __ ] ruined it brilliant great athlete  
00:08:56
we've said it we've talked about him  several times just fantastic crazy build  
00:08:59
yeah and he literally promotes everything promo's  not great i mean his backstage stuff has been yes  
00:09:05
or awesome yeah promos why he's not it didn't  work in real life no to be fair like he never  
00:09:10
got a chance to go out there and cut you know  made card to main event level promos and maybe  
00:09:16
you know after six months he would have gotten  awesome at it but unfortunately they took away  
00:09:21
his gimmick and they put him with piper and it  [ __ ] died absolutely what a strange decision  
00:09:25
his suit he had just had a black jacket on  it was it was a bin bag it was a mailbag  
00:09:32
so the problem is it's a zero or a hundred gimmick  they're either gonna shoot them to the main event  
00:09:36
or nothing and die and there we go great boy  fantastic boy thank you for bringing the boy
00:09:44
hey i'm not telling you anything  that you don't already know
00:09:51
so read out the old castle stable there  yes top filling in the boy and breakfast  
00:09:56
i love that gimmick that's solid brian adams  and brian clark chronic chris canyon oro h  
00:10:03
vincent test and top billing number one sean  o'hare there's a team going on a lot of beef  
00:10:11
and he just finishes off here says yes i'm  also from maryland i find it funny that i'm  
00:10:18
not the only one in maryland with an osw tattoo  he says he knows that it's been a running joke  
00:10:25
for the past few episodes but you guys saying  maryland cracks me up immensely you guys are  
00:10:30

00:10:38

00:11:41
event of note henan hammer's home that hollywood's  nephew son of his dead brother was smashed in  
00:11:46
a chair and needed legit stitches but more on  that later and uh henan finishes off with a bow  
00:11:54
all right we'll find out trick or treat
00:12:00
nitro girls um i'm done with the nitro girls  i think okay we're watching halloween havoc  
00:12:06
nitro girls the clue isn't the name why are you  why are you on the page because they fill time  
00:12:13
why are you at the start like you're filling time  immediately but we've just started we're not ready  
00:12:19
yeah but our match just can't go more than four  minutes long so come on out you go i felt like i  
00:12:24
was watching television it didn't feel like a  big pay-per-view show at all i quite liked it  
00:12:29
actually like it meant that everything was broken  up but it is very very odd to be wasting your time  
00:12:35
as we're told four matches are only announced  now raven jericho mangrath disco hoovey and the  
00:12:41
winner faces billy kidman for the cruiserweight  title later rick steiner tries to kill heat for  
00:12:46
the boat by saying his brother scott is  just another opponent he doesn't get it
00:12:53
literally the biggest match of his career tonight  gene it's not brother against brother he's just  
00:12:59
another opponent that i'm going to come out here  and teach him a lesson buff comes out and says  
00:13:04
the nwo do a lot of run-ins let me watch your  back because he's a baby face now despite the  
00:13:10
ruse of the fake neck injury last pay-per-view  fall brawl yeah okay the hound in the pound  
00:13:15
is gonna get down downed wasn't it a big thing  that ric flair kept blindsiding sting you know  
00:13:24
he kept pretending to be honest yeah yeah it's  a running game yeah oh okay so sting is an idiot  
00:13:31
sting is a totally it's just very trusting yeah  like butters like butters by the way before we  
00:13:38
go any further lads this set i [ __ ] love it  amazing isn't it i just said yeah because we're  
00:13:45
wasting time for 10 minutes we get a good  pike at the halloween havoc set it this is  
00:13:49
my favorite wrestling set of all time because  steve top 10 favorite sets nice so clickbait
00:14:02
i'm a sucker for physical sets not a giant  led board with changeable graphics like the  
00:14:07
creativity planning and novel nature of actual  physical props and things made just for it makes  
00:14:13
the whole experience so much more fun more real  less artificial so let's get to them yeah we can  
00:14:19
armaged in 2002 it's kind of a wasteland set  like it's kind of a garbage issue but i swear  
00:14:26
that they made it just so they could have  caine's entrance blowed up and set fire  
00:14:30
to it nice but otherwise a bit of a crap  
00:14:34
for the other two hours 58 minutes of pay-per-view  ah pay-per-views being three hours what a time um  
00:14:40
number nine king of the ring 2001. is this one  with a massive chair it is yeah yeah yeah yeah  
00:14:47
sticking with the kind of king throne theme it  was more of an electric chair and had the frosted  
00:14:51
glass panels on the side just in case anyone's  feeling froggy wants to test the tensile strength  
00:15:03
the chair itself bit crappy and bare but like  the idea of it is amazing very cool number eight  
00:15:09
knight of champions you've got the regal red and  gold set up the giant pillars big red curtains  
00:15:14
have the kind of basketball banners showing all  the championship belts yeah he's pretty fancy  
00:15:19
looking very on brand and cost effective fancy  despite it not being that expensive and it's great  
00:15:25
to see all the belts i mean blown up big huge size  belts yeah it's very very cool looking very nice  
00:15:31
number seven wrestlemania 34 in new orleans  okay i'm not huge on the led sets but it's  
00:15:37
my second favorite use of it it had a big kind of  jester thing as well and it just it was crazy big  
00:15:43
very very cool party time mardi gras yeah  yeah yeah great gimmick and they'd been doing  
00:15:48
the kind of giant leds for a while so this is  kind of the culmination of it so big thumbs up  
00:15:53
number six nitro spring break it's just any time  they do spring break they have the ring surrounded  
00:15:59
by a little pool of water and i just think it's  it's [ __ ] it's crazy looking just because  
00:16:03
we're kind of mostly wwf fans so just seeing  something that's so different than inside an arena  
00:16:09
outdoor with a pool holy [ __ ] at night time as  well and of course nash just jumps in the pool
00:16:17
you know giants you're lucky that on the  1998 cannonball champion of spring break  
00:16:28
number five bash at the beach 96 had sand  and wooden entranceway beach themes that  
00:16:34
his colorful parrots there's a hot surfboard and  like you when you think of hogan's iconic heel  
00:16:40
turn whose side is he on you can think you can  actually see it in your head this is what the  
00:16:44
set looks like in the background as well thank [  __ ] they had a decent set for that because it's  
00:16:48
one of the most overplayed moments in  history that's a different top 10 stuff
00:16:56
you can hear the snark number four wrestlemania  33 in orlando yeah this is one of my favorites um  
00:17:05
massive ramp universal roller coaster thing in the  background yeah the whole theme park ride theme is  
00:17:11
like amazing they put a lot of effort into it  as well i think loop and they kind of have the  
00:17:15
universal sign for wrestlemania yeah big thumbs up  and was that the one with the with the sperm snake
00:17:26
number three royal rumble 2003 this is  the one with the water feature isn't it  
00:17:31
ah there we go i have this written down as  well nice okay the main part of the set is  
00:17:36
not that impressive but just the difficulty and  frankly unnecessary ridiculousness of having  
00:17:42
it rain indoors is so great they  have to sequester it off to the side  
00:17:47
so it's just one part of the set it's  raining but like holy [ __ ] it's raining now  
00:17:51
i wish there was a way to get us to be the  middle of the set and so wrestlers would go  
00:17:55
through it but you don't want them slipping  and sliding ultimo dragon style hooray or uh  
00:18:01
mandy rose from wrestlemania 2021 when she  was coming out and she fill the [ __ ] arms
00:18:10
oh
00:18:16
number two backlash 2002. yeah with the giant  swinging hooks usually they were just dangly but  
00:18:23
this time to actually move them whenever they  got past it so it would move in the background  
00:18:27
and so they had them for 2000 and 2001 and i  thought this was the kind of culmination of it  
00:18:31
nice oh best spot on the hooks is uh  2 000 and matt hardy jumped off it
00:18:40
just before number one i thought i'd give you  a couple of honorable mentions honorable men  
00:18:44
i'm going to get heat for this  uh hog wild uh sturges yeah  
00:18:48
okay with that i'm conflicted because once you  put it on mute it's great yeah yeah i don't want  
00:18:53
to be in the crowd with the bikers because  i'm sure they wouldn't want you in the crew
00:18:59
because like i imagine it's quite smoggy and  just you're just breeding in fumes all the time  
00:19:03
awful yeah and you've had the headache  and you'd be dizzy yeah yeah coming out  
00:19:07
of it but as like a pay-per-view watcher  i think it looks great the aesthetic of it  
00:19:11
and nice outdoors and i don't know it's like a  scene of a movie or something you know and i just  
00:19:16
want to say starcade97 with the whole gimmick like  sand colored broken pantheon set fantastic idea  
00:19:22
didn't really go far enough and like if wwe did it  they put a lot more money then it looked amazing  
00:19:27
but anyway love love the thinking behind  it and number one halloween havoc 98.  
00:19:33
giant inflatable gargoyle demon hands on  a big pumpkin with the logo etched into it  
00:19:38
mausoleums on each side tombstones dry ice wafting  throughout the show fantastic look i thought so  
00:19:46
fitting for a halloween pay-per-view it's awesome  i love it i cannot argue with that being top spot  
00:19:52
yeah very good the wibbly wobbly yeah i love it i  loved it yeah i mean it should be hokey and stupid  
00:20:00
but it was really cool was there a big snicker  sign on the pumpkin yeah that took away from it  
00:20:06
does snickers sign on all of the branding  for the halloween havoc unfortunately  
00:20:10
and it's not halloween havoc it's  actually snickers halloween havoc  
00:20:14
but yeah awesome set uh you enjoy that  one i love top tens you know gibbons
00:20:24
we salute you our half-inflated dark lord
00:20:47
what about me what about raven
00:20:52
our inaugural contest is for the  tv championship it's champion chris  
00:20:57
jericho versus raven what theme song did  you get there oh i got there fed themes  
00:21:03
yeah we got like i get a name dig dig fix it
00:21:10
suck my lame [ __ ] wow it's  it's all coming together
00:21:25
if we were to sing that would we  get picked up by the algorithm  
00:21:29
but not we'd be fine we're not the algorithms  whatever they use nah we'd be fine you see  
00:21:32
the key is just to sing it off tune as  you were that's just an original hit
00:21:42
it's raven he's on a losing streak but it's not  my fault he says i wasn't booked to wrestle until  
00:21:47
i came to work so i'm not doing it see you  later mate lame do you dare jericho sporting  
00:21:54
the top ponytail he'd entered wwf with yeah  it's very cool the pineapple jericho rallies  
00:22:01
the jerkaholics gold's raven by calling the  flock the biggest rejects and he's a loser
00:22:10
for the chest come on baby classic jericho hangman  jump off brett's turnbuckle kick to the outside  
00:22:16
classic oc brawl on the outside remove turnbuckle  jumping nothing into a powerbomb catapult into the  
00:22:23
exposed steel and jumping bum bum clothesline  jericho denies a german suplex that was never  
00:22:29
happening roll forward applies a lion tamer  deny the win raven hits the even flown ddt  
00:22:35
denied the win that's his finisher you [ __ ]  jobber kicking out of the finisher in the opener  
00:22:44
this this match didn't even have a build  huh that's former flocker canyon's queue to  
00:22:50
interfere gets clocked and raven gets caught  in a second lion tamer and immediate tap
00:23:01
yeah what do you think i do like both wrestlers  i think they're good solid wrestlers and  
00:23:07
they eventually got the fans into it but then  i wasn't a big fan of the finish because it's  
00:23:11
wcw someone has to run out you can't just beat  someone even someone who's on a losing streak  
00:23:18
i thought it was okay apart from obviously a lot  of brawling initially eventually a match broke  
00:23:23
out and it was enjoyable but yeah jesus raven man  it's not a good look so jericho kicks out of your  
00:23:30
finisher then somebody interferes on your behalf  distracts jericho which usually leads to the  
00:23:36
finish with the heel picking up the win jericho  has none of it lion tamer and immediate tap out  
00:23:43
i'm not sure that was necessary so yeah he looks  horrendous jericho does not look any better  
00:23:49
coming out of this match than he did going in but  raven looks considerably worse so what a shame um
00:23:57
in the weeks following he do this gimmick where  he'd be scheduled for a match and he's like  
00:24:00
i don't want to be in a tag against  the armstrong brothers and not doing it  
00:24:04
i don't want to be in a match  with scott potsky i'm not doing it  
00:24:08
so you can just have this match  without me raven where is your mind  
00:24:15
see raven had a bit of creative control usually  reserved for the likes of hogan and ddp and  
00:24:19
finally got to do this angle after weeks of not  wrestling citing his difficult childhood december  
00:24:24
21st nitro his ma shows up and pleads with her  son to come home to west palm beach and get help  
00:24:31
see it turns out that he's actually a trust  fund baby and he has 3.2 million waiting for him  
00:24:36
he spends the next two months not wrestling but at  home with his upperclass mom being a stroppy teen  
00:24:41
i don't want to see the treatment i don't want to  go back to the institution i don't want to talk  
00:24:47
to you because you're aggravated really not all  about what you want it's like character murder  
00:24:52
though oh he's done but if fitting with his  um obsolescence and acquiescence to this match  
00:24:58
will not occur you know it fits you know fancy  sandman is there in his polo shirt and glasses  
00:25:05
actual yeah like hack yeah yeah he calls him jim  
00:25:11
oh man you don't need to disrespect her like that  shut up jim hello jim hello canyon he even took  
00:25:19
canyon shopping in the end he returns to wrestle  with fancy shirt canyon and sister valet chastity  
00:25:25
who was his legit mate who was in raven's nest in  ecw uh who'd be fobbed off to the sandman when the  
00:25:31
angle ended pretty quick yeah horrendous angle the  best bit is raven turning to the camera and saying  
00:25:37
what a mark that's like 98 great stuff but  yeah you killed him there so oh he's done yeah  
00:25:45
but and he wanted this angle oh yeah  this is his big thing this is his  
00:25:48
yeah his baby yeah he wanted to kill his own  creation like assuming a little dose of bollocks
00:26:03
what a mark
00:26:06
the television title [ __ ]  don't forget that we are going
00:26:20
because like voodoo child plays and then he gets  both willing and knowing they're gonna be part  
00:26:30
of professional wrestling we are blessed with a  hollywood hulk hogan promo wait there isn't enough  
00:26:37
tv time to cut a promo you only have thunder tnt  actually were kind of angling for a third show oh  
00:26:43
my god nitro extra because there was a nba lockout  at the time where both the players and the suits  
00:26:50
wanted a change in structure the suits wanted a  cap for how much they can earn and the players  
00:26:55
wanted to raise the minimum and in the end they  were off for six months and they went back in  
00:27:01
january they solved it they got a two percent pay  cut what did the fans think what did the general  
00:27:05
public think hated it it was a petty spat between  two sides of millionaires get the [ __ ] work and  
00:27:11
when they came back it was they really killed  their numbers in attendance and a third show  
00:27:17
oh my god i mean they already had five hours of  television every week and believe you me lads hulk  
00:27:24
hogan and eric bischoff got to speak for large  segments of those five hours and they get to get  
00:27:31
pay-per-view promo time on a card that's already  had a promo and that has 12 matches everyone  
00:27:39
what's hogan say he talks about crucifying and  sacrificing horus on nitro brother he says that  
00:27:46
horus wasn't ready for the black and white brother  he's not worthy like not the game horace he his  
00:27:52
nephew son of his dead brother so yeah yeah which  they hammer home horus we're our family brother  
00:28:00
me and you we have the same blood in our  veins brother your dead father my dead brother
00:28:09

00:28:13
what kind of his family tree is a shrub you know  brother my brother brother my brother brother i  
00:28:20
see my dead brother in your eyes you look exactly  like my brother brother his dead father my brother  
00:28:27
you don't have to say that brother i know you  love me yeah i did like it because he's talking  
00:28:32
and they just cut to the nitro footage but they  leave on the audio so it's a hulk hogan promo  
00:28:37
over footage of hulk hogan promo yeah  you have to be worthy to be an nw white  
00:28:44
and brothers so what do you think of  horace hogan being the key to this show
00:28:52
it's like jar jar being the key to star  wars horace hogan is the key it's halloween  
00:28:58
it's about horace hogan i never thought  about that but you're absolutely like  
00:29:01
the last week of world championship wrestling  has been built around horus and his big
00:29:12
match number two it's disco  inferno versus juventud guerrero  
00:29:17
ming he serious yeah oh yeah cause you  were watching okay i'm watching the wcw  
00:29:24
home video vhs which is two hours 51 you're  watching the network version i'm watching the  
00:29:28
network version which is three hours fifteen  and obviously you're watching the rra99 uh  
00:29:34
it was on the screenshot show you sent me 317  but then i started with 347. so i was wondering  
00:29:41
where the extra half an hour came from okay  someone who was bishop some of that was jay
00:29:47
wcw home video they don't want to spring for four  hours of a videotape so they cut mine to under  
00:29:52
three hours could they not just have had a regular  three hour tape slap it on long plate or extended  
00:30:00
plate don't tempt them with six hours you get that  extra hour and it just looks a little bit shittier  
00:30:06
than normal will give you six extended play will  give you four oh perfect perfect okay so honestly  
00:30:13
i didn't see the match you'll have to tell me what  happened that's hilar as well luckily not much  
00:30:18
men comes out first he's got his hilarious brillo  pad mullet uh and and then wrath comes out and he  
00:30:26
jumps at him right away a bit of a brawl lots of  punches lots of kicks zero heat wrath hits like a  
00:30:34
top rope like jumping shoulder block a cannonball  from the apron to meng who was outside which is  
00:30:39
quite impressive for someone his size back breaker  from meng the fans go quiet and there's some  
00:30:46
audible boring chants yeah it's very early in the  day for fans to get bored like you're literally 15  
00:30:53
20 minutes in and they're already checked checking  out wrath it's a big sunset flip and we get an uh
00:31:07
hits a terribly awkward meltdown his pump  handled slam you can see them audibly say  
00:31:13
are you ready yes one two three hits  the meltdown and gets the three count  
00:31:22
fantastic riveting yeah thank you steven uh what  would you think how was this match it was not  
00:31:28
terrible you know big beefy boy battle and nice to  see rat win because i prefer him over the little
00:31:37
what are you gonna do abby come at me
00:31:42
fly over to ireland come find me
00:31:48
i have expunged all of my social media he's trying  to find him can he get him up in it ming over 300  
00:31:56
he got him he did it up two he beats me
00:32:08
match number three hoover dude  hooventood hoovy hoofy hooventude
00:32:18
the winner will face billy kidman later on  tonight disco can't get two camera shots of women  
00:32:23
enjoying him one was dancing  yes the other uh polite smile  
00:32:27
he didn't mishears panzer and  asked if hoovey is a street sweeper
00:32:33
v1's favorite redoing a blown spot it was like  the x-pac move where he puts his leg over his  
00:32:38
head and he flips to his back and just flops  but i will say that commentators covered it up  
00:32:44
and said disco the bigger man simply pushed him  off i was like at least you tried and tonight  
00:32:50
he said whovi has a great stick to it attitude  for redoing the blowing spot stick tuitiveness  
00:32:59
disco rest spot headlock and then uh heenan  says disco needs a year off to show him the  
00:33:05
mistakes he makes get guidance and he'd be great  and he didn't say it in a mean way he'd legit  
00:33:12
you know constructive which is worse yeah  it's like pity awkward fumbling leads to a  
00:33:18
hangman and honkies no shake rattle but  only the role um can we get aloha disco
00:33:30
is successful and he punches hoovey  but hot dogs doing a bit of macarena  
00:33:34
dating the show that became a hit in 1996 and  pays for it if you're wondering why casual  
00:33:39
fans don't give a [ __ ] about cruiserweight  matches disco eats a bratz rope frankensteiner  
00:33:44
but gets to his feet before hoovy can follow up  horrible no selling i.e the moves mean nothing  
00:33:50
a hoovey with a possible poison frankensteiner  denied disco spikes him with a jumping pile driver  
00:33:57
and one two three inferno will face kidman  later tonight for the cruiserweight title
00:34:11
wcw you think gonna be the match of the night  but you throw disco in there he's absolutely  
00:34:16
serviceable he's absolutely fine but he has  no business being in cruiserweight matches so  
00:34:21
he he robbed us of having an awesome cruiserweight  match and he also won and went on to face bk  
00:34:26
bomber so he didn't even get to see hoovey  and kidman but it was fine it was nice to have  
00:34:31
a clean finish second match in a row with  a clean finish oh no that's a streak i  
00:34:35
know i know cruiserweight matches always  have a finish it's just everything else
00:34:43
um and disco sounds exactly like ray romano yeah  he's got that kind of yeah he's a levoit yeah  
00:34:51
can you give us a bit of a disco ray  romano um i i married a saint no i can't  
00:34:57
i can't do it i cannot i just he's impossible you  know it i know it and all these people know it  
00:35:06
it sounds good you know [ __ ] you know more  time race thing with the nitro girls they're not  
00:35:14
lee marshall was talking to billy kidman backstage  wait did they have the nitro blast on paper yeah  
00:35:20
pretty much just seriously just they're  just throwing [ __ ] against the wall  
00:35:24
asking questions you know like you as the fighting  baby face do you think it's fair that these have  
00:35:30
to wrestle first and they're going to be more  tired than you and then as he goes to answer  
00:35:35
they just cut and they gave him about a minute  and then they got bored they didn't immediately  
00:35:40
cut away like he had a chance to say something  meaningful and he just failed it's like putting  
00:35:47
a mic up front to neo is it yeah okay remember  the editing that i had to do to get his one promo
00:35:57
you see the sun jumping across the sky
00:36:03
as you see the stunning nitro girls in the ring  more time wasting with the niger girls they're  
00:36:10
not even hiding it by like promoting the girls  doing signings or appearances like three of them  
00:36:15
che fire and whisper are about to be on telly  on the dating game you don't know you mention  
00:36:21
it uh heathen enjoys the pseudo strip show  and tells the lads time shut up stop talking  
00:36:27
but he's looking at me i i don't want to think  of siobhany when you're looking at these girls  
00:36:32

00:36:41

00:36:54
a tag match rick and buff versus scott and giants  and for the tag team titles since when the last  
00:37:02
show thunder with two weeks ago where's your belt  well jake giant and hall are champions and steiner  
00:37:08
is subbing in for a whole very good so scott hall  can't wrestle tonight uh not now he can later  
00:37:18
maybe okay okay like he's he's 95 there he's like  a torrent basically it doesn't work until it's 100
00:37:27
that was so nerdy [ __ ] oh very good though giant  flubs rick is a barking dung who's got no fights
00:37:46
that's like ric flair when he's yeah
00:37:58
uh choose your favorite barking dong sounds in  the comments you've got a barking dog that's got  
00:38:05
no bite what match we on anyone match four finley  versus oh alex right [ __ ] i i didn't get this  
00:38:11

00:38:17
matches you know two matches they cut two matches  yeah we got fun boy alex right pew pew and fondly  
00:38:25
he loves to fight obviously from the last time  out we've had alex wright playing a stormer with  
00:38:31
the british jellyfish yeah i  am the best now he's french now
00:38:37
i am the best european wrestler uh can you give us  
00:38:41

00:39:05
yeah so he's been bragging that he's the best  european wrestler in wcw he's been wrestling bully  
00:39:12
um norman smiley on the go home thunder thinly  wrestled bulldog on the go home nitro which of  
00:39:18
course alex right interfered but then got battered  by finley which sets up this match to finally  
00:39:23
decide who is the best european wrestler in wcw  until tomorrow night where they wrestle again  
00:39:31
i really like the idea of this by the  way it is a little gimmick the problem is  
00:39:35
it's in america and i'm sure they don't  give a [ __ ] who the best european wrestler  
00:39:39
is the fans let them know four or five  inch punch can not get cold it's just  
00:39:43
how he delivers the bell rings finley is kind of  chasing after alex wright and he does some like  
00:39:49
monkey rolls to get out of the way and then he  gets up smiles taps the temple fantastic love it  
00:39:56
finley clubs forearms hard punches two loud  boring chants from the fans they're not into  
00:40:03
this at all finley grabs alex wright's legs  does a catapult bounces him off the ropes  
00:40:10
but holds on to his legs so that he bounces  back and cracks his back on finley's knees  
00:40:16
and bends over backwards looks [ __ ] great oh the  one one thing i really i really enjoyed alex right  
00:40:22
i really like this guy he did multiple k-pops did  you mention that one oh yeah you know the the spot  
00:40:28
where he grabs the arm is like keep keep up fall  and fall it's a very british yeah very steve ryden  
00:40:36
but it looked amazing so big kudos for that  excellent alex wright fires back up hits a  
00:40:43
very nice power slam and then goes to the top  rope misses what is one of the most amazing  
00:40:49
looking drop kicks i've ever seen the height that  he gets here is incredible made me think of your  
00:40:55
man from the street profits on raw uh montez  ford yeah montage yeah the big m has the 40.
00:41:08
has the best frog splash you'll ever see guys  he like jumps about eight feet in the air it's  
00:41:12
[ __ ] amazing anyway so uh wright goes for  his top rope dropkick misses finley goes to  
00:41:19
spirum in the corner but right gets out of the  way funny goldbergs his head knocks himself  
00:41:25
out and gets rolled up for the win oh with a  reverse snake breaker one two and he got him  
00:41:33
that clean win oh hey how about that yeah  yeah enjoy it while it lasts he alex wright  
00:41:40
beat steve's boy clean one two three middle of  the ring after two minutes 50 seconds whatever  
00:41:46
that's the level of your boy right now it was  sad funny one of my boys alex wright definitely  
00:41:53
looking for a you know like the key  to the boy and breakfast at the minute  
00:41:57
he may crack open a window and find  himself getting in at some point  
00:42:02
very sad to say this was the worst thing on  the show by a mile oh any nitro girls coming
00:42:14
the sign man himself loading disco inferno  versus the cruiserweight champion billy kidman  
00:42:21
oh no oh no what steve what did you think of  saturn's get up it was loady versus saturn oh  
00:42:27
i'm very sad that you didn't see  it because i'm sure that before  
00:42:32
i have a chance to break into  song you would have been like
00:42:43
it was the most blue oyster that there's ever been  so he comes out with this leather flat cap kind of  
00:42:51
thing right a leather beret and he's got a i don't  know do you know the wooden lattices on the front  
00:43:01
of a a house that you know you have the vines on  yeah a trellis he's wearing one of them basically  
00:43:10
material it's a trellis vest like it's a vellus  metal oh like a bicycle chain yeah [ __ ] yeah  
00:43:20
yeah oh jay do you know these like boxing  glove things where you press the button and  
00:43:25
they come out and they punch cartoons yeah you  know the crisscross metal that goes in and out  
00:43:35
it's that but just you know invest for oh  oh but it's magnificent okay great okay  
00:43:43
how's the match go so the match kicks off someone  comes out i don't know if this was a shoot or if  
00:43:48
this was part of the match but you know the way  that they have the ladies who will come to the  
00:43:52
ring to like take the wrestler's jackets back the  valleys yeah so someone tries to take lodi's signs  
00:43:59
and he basically looks and goes what  the [ __ ] are you doing like these are  
00:44:01
my signs these are i was like i need  them it's all i've got without them
00:44:13
so he leaves the ring chases after and he gets  her down at the end of where the crowd are  
00:44:19
he grabs the signs right he doesn't tackle  it that'd be [ __ ] amazing if he did  
00:44:24
he goes back to the ring gets battered a  bit and then she does it again she tries  
00:44:29
to take a sign for the second time he gets  caught in a lovely belly to belly suplex  
00:44:35
a pretty scary-looking t-bone afterwards where he  kind of lands on his like neck and shoulder saturn  
00:44:40
picks him up hits the falcon arrow and the death  valley driver and gets the win in like a minute
00:44:50
on with us fans it was total domination by saturn  
00:44:53
nothing much the highlight being saturn's  cute little number that was that was he was  
00:45:00
ravishing yeah he's radiant yes radiant what did  saturn get out of this like this feud is over he  
00:45:08
beat the flock to flock her gun oh  right i thought you meant like tax-wise
00:45:18
electro girls as you see nitro girls time wasting  number three oh my god they are earning their  
00:45:26
paycheck how much you say nitro gold shay  was on 50 grand a year uh three-year deal  
00:45:31
with the 500s for valet and physical chase says  she still gets royalty checks for ready to rumble  
00:45:37
it's quarterly and like 60 cents but hey it's  something that's awesome it was more substantial  
00:45:43
at one point because she had a speaking  role it was 99 when the earth fell out  
00:45:49
where new names and signees would get 15 grand  whoa that's competitive with like raw's 25 dollars
00:46:12
champion may have demanded it let's go now  match number six is disco inferno versus the  
00:46:18
cruiserweight champion billy kidman uh wow so yeah  disco back out pretty sharpish for his tuttle bait  
00:46:24
that's hardly fair it's been like what 20 minutes  for me it was just the nitro girl swarming  
00:46:31
kidman tries to quicken the base slow it down  slow it down seriously disco gulping for air  
00:46:39
lying on the ground look at the disco in  front of a very determined look on his face  
00:46:45
though didn't he draw jenny now disco  spends most of his time on the mat  
00:46:49
evading kidman's attempted frog splash and  schwab pinfall cover rest hold headlock  
00:46:55
and the crowd have none of it disco  sucks chance and bk bomb from the b
00:47:03
gets a two big spike pile  driver which beat hoovey earlier  
00:47:07
but disco takes too long to capitalize  try it again and reversal into a face  
00:47:12
buster kidman follows up with a shooting  star press and gets to one two three
00:47:25
what do you think i have absolutely  nothing to say about this match  
00:47:29
uh you're still mesmerized by the vest again  i was disappointed disco had no business being  
00:47:34
here he was bollocks doesn't he yeah like jesus  like he was gasping for air it's like of all the  
00:47:40
cruiserweights and inverted commas to  have doing two matches make hoovey do no  
00:47:45
make kidman do two matches yeah he's the young  babyface champion that you're trying to put over  
00:47:52
have them be hoovy first and they can have a good  match and then you can have the angle that kidman  
00:47:58
has bollocksed this goes the heel he's going to  take advantage of that so that you can build up  
00:48:02
to the big comeback and the bomber wins perfect  uh but this match should have been a triple threat  
00:48:08
yeah yeah kidman's a workhorse pleasure to watch  him but god damn his shooting star press is so  
00:48:14
awful no grace to hit it's a flop he takes the  impact of the shooting star press on his knees  
00:48:20
holy god like you don't have to be justin gabriel  you know or evan bourne you know he is an amazing  
00:48:25
one like even shane mcmahon's shooting star  press is nicer yeah so ah mate oh we have  
00:48:33
nitro girls you know we have something slightly  the same but better i'll leave you to decide  
00:48:40
conan's music video i didn't get this i know well  unfortunately for both of you it is actually you  
00:48:48
guess what this music video entails what you  imagine it's going to look like what's in it  
00:48:54
i hang with my homies correct like a bouncy car  correct ma masitas correct is there a fish-eye  
00:49:02
lens and people pointing at it oh like kind of  like papa roach kind of music video kind of thing
00:49:16
that's a great guess but no but you've hit the  nail on the head you've got the mama seated  
00:49:19
you've got the homies and you've got the bouncing  cars but yeah it's a lot of like yeah i'm coming  
00:49:23
to the camera and i'm kind of going to crouch  down with the camera in your face but i'll tell  
00:49:28
you the amount of bouncy cars in this i've never  seen so many bouncy cars before in a music video  
00:49:33
there's about seven or eight wow um and it just  got me thinking you know i'm looking at these  
00:49:38
they can't last long you  know i know the suspension  
00:49:41
special suspension in these low riders but  there's there's moving parts in an engine  
00:49:46
and if you keep bouncing your engine up and  down on the road i don't care how good your  
00:49:49
suspension is shit's gonna start moving around and  loosen it's grand steve don't just rob a new one
00:49:59
i'll leave it up to you if that gets  in that's it we're doing it that's that  
00:50:02
i know that's it i might have to bring  back the long bleep you know that noel
00:50:21
next up is scott steiner and the giant  versus rick steiner and buff bagwell  
00:50:26
for the nwo's tag belts if the heels lose  scott has to wrestle rick for 15 minutes  
00:50:31
buff is wrestling in his hill figure jeans  because he wasn't prepared to wrestle  
00:50:35
okay fabe although in shoot every wrestler  shows up with their gear in case this exact  
00:50:40
thing happens as always he is in fantastic shape  conversely the giant the ooc special yes you are  
00:50:51
you bastard is so out of shape he's now wrestling  in a t-shirt oh sorry i oh i hate this but i  
00:50:59
thought you were going to talk about the other  thing yeah which is the real ooc special yeah  
00:51:04
which is walk into the ring having a smoke oh  yeah which i love yeah as you know but [ __ ] you  
00:51:10
that's my thing and then okay it's one thing walk  into the ring because you can kind of conceal it  
00:51:15
but he's standing at ringside and the camera's  on him and he takes a big drag out of it but like  
00:51:19
finishes oh no he that's he wasn't a gimmick he  just hadn't finished the smoke and they said get  
00:51:24
out there [ __ ] you then i'm gonna finish this  out there you said there's eight segments to go  
00:51:30
i didn't have time it's october sure i'm out  of here in three you've got to admire the  
00:51:38
balls on them and i'd bet you anything you  went backstage and nobody said a word yeah
00:51:51
now buff bagwell really kind of ignoring  papa pop and looking at the giant  
00:51:56
he also has the support of of chucky  inverse atomic trumps and clubber  
00:52:02
scott but what's that on his hand he's  got his wanking claw the one black love  
00:52:08
dog face gremlin has a pinfall buttsies buff  wants in okay tag him in come on in mate and
00:52:16
both he'll turn i i burst out laughing at this  it's like rick you you deserve this beating me
00:52:26
uh the lads hug and buff takes his leave i quite  like that sort of like i know it was stupid but  
00:52:30
i didn't think you'd do it that quick in the  match yeah he tagged in so that rick couldn't pin  
00:52:36
scott yeah very clever it's two on one be awful  scott and giant hits a decidedly on giant like  
00:52:43
russian leg sweep rick fires up and gets  cut off with a low blow in front of the ref  
00:52:48
shavante says yeah wcw though the rules go  they go out of the window sometimes ridiculous  
00:52:54
crazily big show tries to top rope dropkick and  is so big has trouble finding his foot placement  
00:53:01
you like this spot awesome amazing yeah like it  doesn't get any better for paul white after this
00:53:07
this gives rick time to recover  and he missile dropkick scott  
00:53:11
oh no clothesline clothesline and follows  up with a top rope bulldog one two three  
00:53:17
wow huge pop rick with a massive babyface  win capturing the tag belts by his lonesome  
00:53:31
i didn't appreciate the commentators were talking  about rick being the solo tag team champion  
00:53:36
because he's not him and both bagwell are tag team  champions yeah you're literally leaving an easy  
00:53:42
feud here you could have had those two either  try to you know kind of get along the original
00:53:51
one's a fastidious conservative  the other one's a sloppiness
00:54:00
steiner's feud has been going on for la la la la
00:54:10
we're finally getting it scott must make good  on his promise to fight rick big punch big  
00:54:15
clothesline reversal boot to the face catch a  scott midair and plant some big pop-up plant  
00:54:22
belly to belly overhead fan jumps the ring  it's a guy in a suit a bill clinton mask  
00:54:28
he gets a slap jack from stevie ray the slap  jack he gave me stevie ray came out with a slap  
00:54:34
so stevie ray hands both a slap jack and wallops  the ref in the face a bean-filled whack bank  
00:54:42
and the ref takes an amazing bump like  a professional i assume this guy was a  
00:54:47
professional wrestler at some point because that's  a proper professional wrestler bump well done sir
00:54:54
oh no no so rick keeps on fighting he throws  out buff and then hits his move on scott  
00:55:02
and they still count it and the bell rings
00:55:17
yeah new ref nick patrick one two three rick wins  again so what what the like the match was a dq and  
00:55:23
then the match wasn't a dq so what what was it  like tell us what's going on lads nate this is  
00:55:29
how goldberg got a streak up so quickly if you  have one scheduled match but you win four times  
00:55:35
you know and this is the big blow off to  this blood feud between these two brothers  
00:55:40
is is this supposed to satisfy rick is this  the revenge he was looking for after all the  
00:55:45
[ __ ] he's been put through for the past year  what a terrible end to this feud okay this feud  
00:55:52
had the most heat coming into this card and this  match and the tag match were very heated and the  
00:55:57
fans cared for it and then they just [ __ ] run  in nwo another swear of ref bump multiple members  
00:56:06
of a stable come in and you get a non-clean  finish that doesn't really put the baby face  
00:56:11
over like like all of those things are literally  in one or two sentences what put a company out  
00:56:18
of business so they did it over and over again to  the point where they ran off all their fans all i  
00:56:24
could think of is george lucas and the horace hulk  horse is the key to all of this it's like poetry
00:56:44
one of the most powerful organizations in  professional wrestling the new world order
00:56:52
build a package for the outsiders break up  steve what's happened in the last 11 days  
00:56:59
hall has been drinking yes  tag match on the go home nitro  
00:57:03
where hall came out drunk and then  nash was seen staggering backstage  
00:57:10
also locked he plays it well nash is a decent  actor you know so he comes out i have films
00:57:19
so like nash comes out and he's like laughing  and joking and they build up to the spot where  
00:57:25
nash and hull both get tagged in nash gets his cup  he turns it upside down he shows that it's empty  
00:57:31
then hits him with a big boot right to the cup  drink goes everywhere and it was [ __ ] great  
00:57:38
wow it was so good awesome let's go to the ring  and david peter ladies and gentlemen it is time
00:57:50
nwo oh my god start by chucking your drink  into nash's face you [ __ ] i'm going to  
00:58:01
have to wrestle sticky now and pearl harbors  them from the front let's brawl on the outside  
00:58:06
bell to outside oh see 11 seconds over here i'll  forgive it for this much oh because it makes sense  
00:58:15
okay choked out with a power cable  yeah bouncing with the mic it was great  
00:58:21
hey cuts a mid-match promo scoot back to the  locker room i'm through listening to you hey y'all
00:58:31
how's the world look kev through  foggy eyes hit me with your best shirt  
00:58:38
nash takes it all and won't stay down try to  razor's edge no no no try the jackknife no no no  
00:58:45
paintbrush back of nash's head and disrespect  we see that hall is in fact sober in kayfabe  
00:58:51
anyway and his drunkenness today is a rules  shivan team uses not many attempts at pins here  
00:58:59
quietly admitting it's a sloppingly  slovenly brawl have another drink  
00:59:04
bam with a knee in the corner [ __ ] wrap it up  lads imitate drunken ho and check my power bomb  
00:59:11
releasing it at the peak which always worried me  miss time second one getting him up and release  
00:59:16
suck it and no pin nash just leaves instead mickey  j one two three four five six seven eight five
00:59:30
yeah scott the winner of this match as a result  of a count out scored hard yeah so nash left and  
00:59:40
destroyed scott hall make an example of him but  it's hall that technically wins really enjoyed  
00:59:45
this wow really and i did not expect it i was  assuming that both of you would enjoy because it's  
00:59:51
all storyline and it's a story really well told  because the build-up was really good promo package  
00:59:56
initially was really good they both played their  characters really well i don't enjoy brawling but  
01:00:03
as i said i thought for this match it worked and  it made sense much like it would have worked for  
01:00:07
scott and rick that it's heated you know they  want to kick the [ __ ] out of each other this  
01:00:11
match had weight nash was holding back initially  because he pities his his best friend and he  
01:00:18
wants him to get well but eventually he snaps  because hall is being a little bastard to him  
01:00:24
of course he wins because hull is drunk but it's  about teaching him a lesson it's not about getting  
01:00:28
the pin so he walks off he doesn't care it doesn't  mean anything to him to beat uh holly just wants  
01:00:33
his best friend to get well masterfully done  throw in a corkscrew moonsault or two and you go
01:00:41
wow uh what do you think i'd see ook's point  
01:00:44
from a storytelling point of view uh  i'm totally with you i really liked it  
01:00:48
i thought it was clever i thought it was well  booked it was well put together it made sense  
01:00:52
and it's gonna go somewhere coming out of it but  the meat of the match i was bored to tears yeah  
01:00:59
exactly yeah yeah i can see what they're doing  but holy [ __ ] he's punching and gasping for  
01:01:04
air and lying down is most of it but aside  from that like great kind of storytelling
01:01:16
that's a world-class professional opinion there
01:01:21
you're paid for this paul is dazed and he  just gets up and walks out cue the nigel girls  
01:01:30
is this like their fifth time now or something
01:01:35
the neon nitro girls look like they're starting  to dress like woody look oh now come on
01:02:16
it's the us champion brett hitman heart  versus sting actually if we go uh back  
01:02:22

01:02:28
here's brett hitman clerk no [ __ ]  way oh whoa 250 grams please splashy  
01:02:39

01:02:52
he's he loves his wrestling does  michael buffer doesn't oh yeah  
01:02:55
he knows he's a lifelong fan of money so
01:02:59
okay talking about buffer here there was a nitro  blast jimmy says to him uh is it true that you  
01:03:06
actually legally own the term let's get ready  to rumble and say well yes it is true i have  
01:03:13
trademarked it for use in sports and entertainment  in english spanish german italian and i just want  
01:03:22

01:03:28
please get in touch with my legal department and  uh we will sort it out did he really say it yeah  
01:03:34

01:03:42
of let's get ready to rumble lawyers out there got  to tell all the fans out there that whenever they  
01:03:47
hear somebody say it contact us right away here  wcw that's for michael buffer and let me know  
01:03:52
brett the hitman heart to face sting it's the  sharpshooter versus the scorpion just like his  
01:04:00
heel 97 run brett takes an ice age to enter at  his theme plays for 68 seconds before he surfaces  
01:04:06
big fan jay hunter big big fan yeah yeah so good  outlast is conflicted sting twirling his bat red  
01:04:13
face paint as we expected as he's in the wolf pack  ooh we're sporting a nice goatee what do you think  
01:04:19
no it doesn't work the red paint anyway doesn't  work because it's too shiny it looks hilarious
01:04:28
yeah it looks really bad yeah  it's a bit of a rinse wind  
01:04:31
greetings lowly and scabby peasant  by the way just before you kick off  
01:04:35
in the build sting has a match on nitro it ends  in dq because he refuses to let go of the scorpion  
01:04:43
death lock on brett thunder sting has a match  with a giant and we get another one catcher  
01:04:50
run in dq so your final push to this match is a  series of disqualifications excellent excellent  
01:04:59
man games breath plays by his own rules making  sting chase him to the outside and refusing to  
01:05:06
fight break it up break it up denoting himself a  cagey an insecure heel trying to gain the upper  
01:05:12
hand with unsportsmanlike conduct kind of denotes  he doesn't think he can win it legitimately  
01:05:19
and that's very sad he's brett [ __ ] hurt yeah a  lot of nothing happening we're down in the corner  
01:05:26
come on to the crowd running bulldog and  sting [ __ ] me never mind the cane bump  
01:05:32
he takes this on his side on route amazing  scorpion death lock too close to the ropes  
01:05:40
pick up the base and brett crumples saying ah  my knee it's boned the crowd don't buy it and  
01:05:46
they're right as he immediately springs to life  and sheathing his brass nooks sting sees it but  
01:05:51
in the confusion he uses referee billy silverman  to low blow sting and then the ref is like
01:05:59
atrocious acting here more time wasting heel  work stings on the apron and then just breath  
01:06:05
just [ __ ] [ __ ] you the crowd ref slap sting  and gets back elbow by accident brett make sure  
01:06:14
he's out by leg dropping him the ref decides  that he's going to sell being unconscious  
01:06:24
in the middle of the ring what you'd expect would  happen the wrestlers do a superplex and land on  
01:06:31
his feet it's very safe to i wouldn't want those  lads crashing down on me no but they did it well  
01:06:37
i think they're both good enough and experienced  enough to judge doing that superplex where they  
01:06:42
would land but brett he's a heel kick him out  scoot him to the edge yeah kick him you know  
01:06:48
run over the ref and jump over bread oh no hit  the ring post brett follows up with bat shots  
01:06:54
bang bang bang we should do  some kind of batman thing board
01:07:17
and a brett rope pinpoint batbo bret revives  the ref amazing dazed sellings it's great  
01:07:26
and heart locks on the sharpshooter  to an unconscious stinger  
01:07:29
dropped a hand once twice thrice and heart  wins by ref stoppage and then some weird  
01:07:36
shitty heart attack cover plays like it's  a different song no it wasn't it's like
01:07:52
let me say this i can understand a wrestler taking  advantage of a mistake when the stinger splash hit  
01:08:00
and then what do you think mate huge  disappointment oh no huge disappointment  
01:08:06
this i know you're talking about the last match  being boring i didn't find it so because i thought  
01:08:10
the storyline was good enough to keep it going but  to follow that slow match with another slow match  
01:08:17
the wrong decision but i wouldn't have moved  this much in the card i would have changed the  
01:08:20
match completely so we talk or we used to talk  way too often about uh benoit and angle having  
01:08:27
an amazing well they did a series of matches  right yes ultimate summation yeah backlash 2001  
01:08:32
we talked about it many times so this match should  have been like an ultimate submission match it not  
01:08:38
necessarily with those rules but it should have  been grapple grapple reversal reversal i'm trying  
01:08:42
to get you in the scorpion death like i'm trying  to get you in the sharp shooter how exciting would  
01:08:46
that have been and what like i don't understand  why they went for this kind of match i love this  
01:08:53
like i'm sad now that you said obviously the match  was pants but i'm even worse because you're like  
01:08:58
here you go here's what you should do submission  only match amazing and like ben juan angle they're  
01:09:03
both mat based technical wrestling trying to  catch each other out apply the move because the  
01:09:07
first one that gets it wins it's like oh my god  that would have been amazing and we got marker
01:09:15
and don't don't get me wrong i loved  the bat shots to stings back i thought  
01:09:20
they looked great by the way but not this  match yeah yeah any other match yeah yeah  
01:09:26
one thing i did like it was right afterwards brett  wins with the sharpshooter when he releases it he  
01:09:32
makes sure sting's legs didn't drop like he kind  of cushioned it to let it fall gracefully as a  
01:09:38
sign of respect and i was like oh that was good  that's all that's the only positive from this  
01:09:45
sting this is the end of wolfpack's thing because  after this he's gone for the next oh the guts of  
01:09:51
six months oh wow yeah to fix his marriage yeah  because he's doing a bit of cheating doing a bit  
01:09:56
of party murdering and uh he'd also find christ  he'd become a born-again christian and uh when  
01:10:03
he would return it would be his crow's thing okay  yeah this this version wouldn't be missed i would  
01:10:08
imagine with a goatee he was going somewhere the  shiny face it was so bad they just caught him
01:10:21
and with bret hart and he obviously just checking  out of wcw and he'd start having the crack though  
01:10:28
january just around the corner where he'd help  out a real jam-up guy giving the robe to uh el  
01:10:34
dande oh my god in his like most famous promo you  know i've been sizing up guys since i came to wcw  
01:10:42
and i think the one guy that stands out the most  the guy that i think has earned a title shot  
01:10:48
l dandy i think you're a heck of a wrestler  you're a great technician in the ring and  
01:10:52
you're a jam up guy i don't see any reason wait  a minute l dandy has been wrestling in in the  
01:10:58
cruiserweight division here please he's a  great wrestler he's a great wrestler but  
01:11:02
like goodness sakes who are you to to doubt l  dandy because this guy's a serious professional  
01:11:07
let's talk about some seriousness how  about hypnosis let's get through psychosis
01:11:15
that's great so that's like some of his best  promo that's his best ever promo like when did  
01:11:20
brett made you laugh before like but it wasn't  just that it was a proper promo where he wasn't  
01:11:26
worrying about his next line magnificent yeah  yeah really good and there's a flow to it yes  
01:11:32
so let's say yeah it's a halfway  point of the show let's go to  
01:11:35
another jam of guy and let's  take it to the outbreak
01:11:47
hey it's ryan here from wrestling bios halloween  havoc featured some spooky [ __ ] in the past  
01:11:52
but can you tell me which wrestler had  to get hulk hogan to visit his home  
01:11:57
to get rid of some spooky ghosts  the answers right after this break  
01:12:03
welcome to chunky mania rowdy roddy  piper eats chunky chili beef soup  
01:12:08
with a fork [ __ ] paul mr wonderful horndorf  uses a spoon let's find out who rules
01:12:23
new chunky chili beef with big chunks of beef the  soup that eats like a meal for smooth it's awesome
01:12:34
welcome back so which wrestler had to bring hulk  hogan to his home to get rid of some spooky ghosts  
01:12:39
the answer manny the mangler manny was a legend  of the business and he had some problems with  
01:12:44
the supernatural and so with the help of  his buddies and his creative control clause  
01:12:49
the hulkster made those spooky ghosts do  the job relax dudes this place isn't haunted
01:13:10
turns out it was manny's wife who was [ __ ]  around and scaring the other folks who lived  
01:13:14
at the boarding home all because there was  some money hid inside one of their rooms he  
01:13:18
hit a hundred thousand dollars under his bed with  instructions it be donated to the boarding house  
01:13:23
of course so you frightened everyone  away while you search the room  
01:13:28
i was out of money wait a minute mr wheeler  used to stay in my room uh yeah talk to your  
01:13:35
husband next time you sell the old [ __ ] and  now back to the lads and back the halloween havoc
01:13:48
cut from the network version here's  an ad for december's world war three  
01:13:53
it came after the main event but i'm not  ending on an ad so here's an exclusive
01:14:00
get ready for the ultimate penultimate matchup
01:14:11
you get in the ring with hollywood and you get  beat halloween havoc the way you end get ready
01:14:20
the time is near you have opened  the door to the warriors hell
01:14:41
the return match the world has been waiting the  whole decade for is at our doorstep and we're back  
01:14:49
for our penultimate main event it's hollywood  hogan versus the warrior heralded as match of  
01:14:57
the decade by today by siobhany it's not even  match of today it doesn't catch up billing i mean  
01:15:05
i agree the world title is most important but come  on this is the way bigger about kind of flashbacks  
01:15:10
the hogan rocket x8 triple h and y2j main eventing  for the world title and that was a big wet part  
01:15:16
of finishing mania so but no this was a good idea  let's find out why that magnificent body of the  
01:15:24
warrior commentators gushing blush over warrior's  body which blushes this the new tag team isn't it
01:15:34
this was true about in 1990 warrior looked  amazing but not 1998 and not on the same card  
01:15:41
as both bagwell and scott steiner holy  [ __ ] they [ __ ] caught all this much  
01:15:49
bum rush warrior to get the upper hand  pummeled in the corner into a knuckle lock  
01:15:56
that's what he was working towards amazing  test of strength into the [ __ ] game
01:16:18
commentators derisively sell the crisscross  as haven't seen this for a long time that's  
01:16:24
that's the cheek of them i was marking out  to the crisscross i was like crisscross yeah  
01:16:30
[ __ ] amazing whip to the ropes and bump into  the ref and make sure he's down come out brothers
01:16:40
it's the giant oh no who boots hogan gets  clotheslined out later stevie ray later  
01:16:45
virgil hogan gains the upper hand and whips  him in the face with his weightlifter's belt  
01:16:52
yeah warrior gets his back unbuckling his belt to  whip him fairies quite inappropriate isn't it yeah  
01:16:58
it's it's like [ __ ] spot all over again you  know the undressing it reminds me of when brett  
01:17:04
beat perfect at summerslam 91 maybe and he was  wearing his singlet on his shoulder as a belt  
01:17:10
yeah it was a trophy it was inappropriate  like generally wearing another man's clothes  
01:17:17
yeah like the camera should cut the  bread after the mat and he's just like
01:17:23
well of success
01:17:26
but there is no reason to take off a man's  clothes in a wrestling match just in general  
01:17:34
is this some kind of life room  
01:17:41
in the corner hogan whips  out a little sandwich bag  
01:17:46
uh already some flash paper on the lighter  a [ __ ] freezer bag a little ziploc
01:17:56
it's a lighter
01:18:01
hollywood hogan warrior he he sells it  because there's a little bit of flash  
01:18:06
but he sells it as if it's the full  thing but the ball explodes on the  
01:18:11
just you know ground the explosion was  so it's it that was the big spot the peak
01:18:17
doesn't like singe hogan's like tash  and his like browser or something well  
01:18:24
he said it did but i'm sure it didn't do a lot  but it was probably uncomfortable quite hot it was  
01:18:30
uncomfortable commentators don't cover for them  what can save this match a warrior log roll spot  
01:18:41
this is the spot that the divas do with the horny  referee and part of me was begging that we would  
01:18:52
get warrior and hogan rolling over the referee  while he goes with the big smile on his face
01:19:02
hogan leg drop is the cue for whacker  
01:19:07
horace hogan brandishing a chair warrior wigs  up and runs wild horus gets into the ring and
01:19:19
your nephew hits warrior with a chair instead  fish off this tracks until hogan can get the pin  
01:19:25
one two three new new world why one
01:19:45
lance storm would be proud of this chair shot guys  this is the finish of the match of the century the  
01:19:53
two biggest names in professional wrestling having  their rematch that's eight years in the build the  
01:20:01
first part of the finish failed spectacularly it  literally blows up in their face no it doesn't  
01:20:10
and then the second part is [ __ ] horace hogan  
01:20:13
george lucas cracking one up  somewhere jay and he just goes
01:20:20
and then that's the end of the match yeah come  on like i went into this match thinking it's not  
01:20:26
going to be as bad as it's made out to be but it  was it started off posturing time wasting so much  
01:20:34
time wasting and i get that that was hogan's  stick bit of warrior stick as well you know  
01:20:39
playing up to the crowd and all that but get  to the action and then it gets to the action  
01:20:43
and then you realize neither man can wrestle so  what they did in the opening is what they have  
01:20:49
yes you know and then they just go to the well  again with similar spots to the wrestlemania 6  
01:20:54
match which worked back then when a the crowd were  into it and b the lads were eight years younger  
01:20:59
now the crowd don't give two [ __ ]  about ultimate warrior at this point  
01:21:03
and the lads are worse than they were eight  years ago have plenty of run-ins if you want  
01:21:08
have plenty of gimmicks just to keep things  ticking over and maybe get the crowd on side  
01:21:12
but their attempts at a gimmick obviously uh  failed miserably and their run in their run  
01:21:19
in was the nwob team is there no one else in  the new world or nwo hollywood that can run in  
01:21:26
to help hogan in this match no you had to focus  on the future of the business horace hogan  
01:21:35
stevie ray what about vincent did he come out  for his payday he didn't vince vincent stevie ray
01:21:47
in the payoff match of the decade to  the match of the deck a match of the  
01:21:50
century the biggest rematch  in the history of our sport
01:22:08
it was amazing you know minus five stars  
01:22:11
must watch back yes post-match horus tries to  burn warrior dousing him with lighter fluid add  
01:22:18
is a hooched off so warrior  just has to get up and leave
01:22:25
i did re-watch their wrestlemania 6 match and  i'd forgotten how homoerotic this boat was like  
01:22:33
lengthy meat on meat hugging sweaty  veiny grippage pumping and gasping  
01:22:40
straining and wincing someone  could make a damning editor
01:23:01
is
01:23:14
and now this is the moment the world has been  waiting for this match is for the heavyweight  
01:23:22
championship of the world next up is your  final bout with big goldie on the line  
01:23:30
but how does goldberg streak fit in with  its lineage let's get you up to speed  
01:23:35
because with 11 matches down one  match left it's time for your murder
01:23:46
a quickie history of wcw title changes since  the nwo was born fraser let's do it mate leg  
01:23:53
drop macho and the new world organization is  born brother hogan's the third man joining hall  
01:24:00
and nash and irrevocably changing the landscape  of pro wrestling forever no hyperbole starting  
01:24:06
at hog wild hollywood hulk hogan heelishly held  the heavyweight title headlining for almost an  
01:24:12
entire year until sexy lexi toppled the titan  with a torture rack a young osc flips his wig  
01:24:20
sadly the lex express crashed later that  week at road wild months passed as the  
01:24:25
nwo continued to decimate the roster come  starrcade who is wcw savior this is sting  
01:24:35
for only a tittle of 11 days vacating it on  thunder but the batman would reclaim it the  
01:24:41
following month fasting hulk thanks to a kevin  nash powerbomb the former macho king was crowned  
01:24:47
champion in april don't get comfortable mate  hogan stole it a day later in contacular fashion  
01:24:54
but this vileness wouldn't stand because in july  nitro would be in the georgia dome where 41 412  
01:25:01
saw a hometown hero the undefeated goldberg spear  lyft and jackhammer to become wcw champion spear  
01:25:12
jackhammer spear jackhammer the fire breathing  dragon goldberg wcw shining light has been  
01:25:19
unstoppable his next win would see him at 149.00  who's next diamond dallas page and it's next
01:25:31
thanks frasier and cub studio for that mate  it's your main event the people's champion  
01:25:39
diamond ellis page versus world  champion and an actual belt holder  
01:25:42
goldberg just over 12 minutes left on this  tape let's do it to it it's gonna be equipment
01:25:54
the pay-per-view feed was cut for some  providers at least 25 of the audience did not  
01:26:02
get this match you know the way www  decided to go an extra half hour  
01:26:07
some of the pay-per-view providers didn't get  the memo oh and they cut the feed after 11 you  
01:26:13
know gonna go 1105 and they said let's go to 11 30  instead so we're in the [ __ ] the companies had  
01:26:20
to offer full or partial refunds to anyone that  ordered wcw tried to make things right by airing  
01:26:25
the main event for free tomorrow night on nitro  which is great for fans a very nice token gesture  
01:26:31
infuriated the pay-per-view companies worse  because that cut off any future pay-per-view  
01:26:36
boys it would also make the people who paid for  it and their feed wasn't cut off angry because  
01:26:43
why are people who didn't pay for getting to  see what i paid for yeah so like eric bischoff  
01:26:48
man he got it for coming from all corners  yeah this is on you mate um you might ask  
01:26:53
didn't this happen in the wwf uh yes and no in  your house beware of dog the broadcast was cut  
01:26:59
after two matches due to a severe thunderstorm  so they rescheduled a second night two days later  
01:27:05
so yeah they also lost transmission but it  was due to a thunderstorm and not no [ __ ] up  
01:27:09
i mean that's like active guard kind of yeah yeah  i mean like that's not from being an idiot yeah it  
01:27:16
looks so hard for a version of the pay-per-view  with the with the feed cut no he's got to give  
01:27:21
it to you you couldn't find it yeah but if  the feed didn't cut out here's what you'd see  
01:27:29
that door he's ready too he almost ripped it off  the hinges getting out of it goldberg's entrance  
01:27:34
incredible as always favorite bit of it is how the  cameraman lets goldberg pass him at the gorilla  
01:27:39
position and then follows him and then you can  kind of see what he would see coming out onto the  
01:27:43
ramp with the crowd cheering and then he loops  around to look at goldberg for his engines ah  
01:27:48
amazing you know we discuss how people look with  the belt he looks amazing with that belt it suits  
01:27:55
him so much it's so weird because people think  of that belt as the flare belt but it looks like  
01:28:00
it was made for ghosts yes my favorite part and  i think it's yours of the goldberg entrance the  
01:28:05
breathing yeah yeah the breathing smoke i like it  when it comes out of his nose just snarling yeah  
01:28:12
yeah i didn't see any that this time when you saw  the mouth um but still great it's just wonderful
01:28:20
he's not the world champion but the people  identify with him ding ding ding big hennestein  
01:28:26
ddp runs into a collar and elbow and gets  hooshed back multiple times goldberg's like  
01:28:32
what do you got same thing again and counter into  an arm drag ddp yeah [ __ ] you i got him reverse  
01:28:39
reverse goldberg is so nimble he dodges a swipe  with a backflip but ddp kg veteran gets him second  
01:28:46
time ah just big badass stalemate between two main  eventers two homegrown wcw talents the animalistic  
01:28:54
goldberg is too strong ddp has to outsmart  and out wrestle goldberg and do it quickly  
01:29:00
quite like that goldberg has some wrestling  moves too like the leg grapevine and roll into  
01:29:05
the armbar is a neo armbar where he's like pulling  on the socket rather than trying to bend the joint  
01:29:17
goldberg neo would do that yeah he  just tried to dislocate your shoulder  
01:29:22
goldberg misses a spear and jacks up his shoulder  turning the tide working on one arm ddp is able  
01:29:28
to reverse into a big time ddt spear the crowd  explode but goldberg's arm is still out so he  
01:29:35
can't get paige up for a jackhammer he gingerly  gets him up float over into a diamond cutter
01:29:45
took him too long to cover two counts goldberg  reverses the suplex into one of his own  
01:29:50
no jackhammer one two three  and goldberg goes 149.00
01:30:07
absolutely amazing what a [ __ ] match  this was everything the last match wasn't  
01:30:13
exciting fast-paced hard-hitting explosive  the crowd were [ __ ] mental for it you know  
01:30:21
people talk about goldberg [ __ ] wrestler  no not for me he might not be bret hart but  
01:30:28
he can [ __ ] hang with ddp who is a fantastic  wrestler he's athletic he's fast he's powerful  
01:30:35
and ddp the wily veteran a great foil for goldberg  in this match it was wonderful one of the best  
01:30:42
matches i've seen in a long time well done lads  i think you're thinking with goldberg it's like  
01:30:48
technical wrestling isn't the only component of  what makes a wrestler great yes oh absolutely  
01:30:53
but he still can grapple he might not be the best  grappler in the world but he can grapple he can  
01:30:58
hold his own wonderful wonderful match i [ __ ]  loved this match holy god the absolute perfect  
01:31:07
goldberg match it was explosive it was fast paced  the fans were into everything goldberg is as you  
01:31:15
said he's not the best technical wrestler but by  jesus christ he is the best goldberg that there  
01:31:21
could ever be this big scary powerful wild man  ddp who's a better wrestler and he's more wildly  
01:31:30
couldn't cope with the raw power goldberg would  just [ __ ] steamroll him and he'd lift him up and  
01:31:36
throw him across the ring as the fans are going  nuts i can't think of the last time i saw a match  
01:31:42
like this like this was a big haas match but it  wasn't a slow lumbering big huss match it was fast  
01:31:49
it was energetic it was explosive it was exciting  it's pretty much everything that i could ever want  
01:31:55
in a big powerman main event uh two massive thumbs  up maybe the best goldberg match i've ever seen  
01:32:02
overtaking brock at wrestlemania  33 which is a match that i adore  
01:32:06
go out of your way to watch this match [ __ ]  loved it i guess we'll have to agree to agree  
01:32:15
oh man [ __ ] phenomenal perfect length 10 and  a half minutes no faff only segments that serve  
01:32:22
the storyline of the match each little sequence  presented a story fragment and progressed it  
01:32:27
how paige tested goldberg altered his attacks  based on it brute force no wrestle dodge too  
01:32:33
slow chain wrestle no must follow up faster  he's too strong use his strength against them  
01:32:38
misses the spear injures his arm the drama  how close he came to breaking the streak  
01:32:43
he wrestled a perfect match but ultimately came  up short i mean this in the highest praise this  
01:32:50
was a bret hart level match i love how intentional  this was working in the power plant these two lads  
01:32:57
choreographing this for weeks ddp choreographing  this for weeks like you know how limited goldberg  
01:33:03
is as a wrestler and goddamn ddp used him to  his strengths you run the absolute best out of  
01:33:09
goldberg you showcased the absolute best of  goldberg so ddp you demand you damn i don't  
01:33:19
know that is that too close uh quote gdp on the  go home thunder he took goldberg the bang town
01:33:29
does ddp get the credit uh he deserves for being  able to put together a match like this no because  
01:33:36
he should yeah i'm right yeah and it's kind of  sad that like people tend to laugh at him for  
01:33:42
oh you go in and you like book your match move  for move and it's like who cares if the product  
01:33:50
that i get to see on my tv is white hot  awesomeness that's all that matters yep  
01:33:56
i do agree steve and i think it's up  to people like us and other reviewers  
01:34:00
to tell people how [ __ ] awesome ddp is  yeah and he's a huge awesome human yes
01:34:07
delivered with extra impact goes  for the spear oh paige avoided it  
01:34:12
hit the post that could be it backstage scar was  goldberg legit knocked himself dizzy with a ring  
01:34:19
post spot and again with the spear as mowing  down ddp he gave himself a ddt so his timing  
01:34:25
was off which is why he kicked out so early from  the diamond cutter like it was kind of at the two  
01:34:29
instead of two and three quarters ddp was pissed  about that and went to go fund backstage and then  
01:34:33
he found out oh your your day's okay that's grand  never mind but but what a spear by the way i know  
01:34:39
it seems like every time we see a goldberg  experience that that's the best one now  
01:34:43
to me that was the best one  i've seen it was a great one  
01:34:46
i know people say that the best one he did was  like on nunzio on like smackdown oh poor nuns yeah
01:35:00
this one hit hard and you could  see that when he came down  
01:35:04
his like head twisted and he like uh hit  his head on like ddp's shoulder or something  
01:35:09
and that's what most of dr loopy it's kind of uh  reminiscent of his a saudi mania one with taker
01:35:17
calamity significantly worse than hogan  warrior oh hey yeah congratulations
01:35:35
let's take it to the aftermath  this has been quite a nice
01:35:53
welcome to the aftermath oh is he halloween  havoc 98 what do you think what's what's going  
01:35:59
on in that crazy um melting pot of a brain you  have uh indeed um it's a bit of a kind of witchy  
01:36:06
halloweeny thing i was going for i didn't panic  it's fine um hugely disappointing pay-per-view  
01:36:12
overall given the card now in 2022 looking back  to 98 this must be one of the greatest cards in  
01:36:19
the history of pay-per-view in terms of start  health yes yes yes and look what they did with  
01:36:24
it so i really liked all nash absolutely loved  the main event otherwise yeah there's a bit of  
01:36:30
bollocks with hogan warrior which was kind of fun  a couple of boring matches couple of matches so  
01:36:34
i think it was a missed opportunity overall it  should have been so much better than it was but  
01:36:39
definite recommendation for hogan  warrior and obviously the main event
01:36:46
if i was just to look at this card and to  watch the build i would have been super psyched  
01:36:51
and then when i watched it i would have been  crushed while the show was three hours and fifteen  
01:36:56
and it's like maybe two and a half hours of meh  too bad those last 15 minutes are so strong that  
01:37:04
i can't watch a show with a match that great and  not at least say you should go and check it out  
01:37:11
so much too much to my shock you're gonna like  
01:37:15
send me this semi thumbs up the show squarely  based on the last half hour because we get the two  
01:37:22
sides of the coin the terrible and the amazing and  i think that they should both be watched yeah such  
01:37:29
in general such an easy watch you know one sitting  no problems probably because it was structured  
01:37:33
like a nitro with promos nitro girl piss breaks  they started the pay-per-view with a time-wasting  
01:37:38
dance routine huge night for rick steiner great  why he just got buried by chucky he's gone  
01:37:46
you know hogan a warrior a glorious disaster  and i love the world title main event match  
01:37:51
wcw is still incredibly hot but it is a calamity  with a shocking number of announced matches during  
01:37:57
the pay-per-view and volume of [ __ ] finishes  an unsustainable format that they reap what they  
01:38:02
sell in less than six months from now when the  arse falls out uh like a great expensive variety  
01:38:07
show thumbs up give it a watch brilliant  uh no that's a lie but no give it a watch
01:38:23
since my return you have  brought nothing before me except  
01:38:31
a pence what a pittance how was it received ten  and a half thousand sellout with 270 000 buys  
01:38:38
above average but it was hurting them from  even the first half the year was much better  
01:38:42
considering warrior's wage and the heavy promotion  for it it was a huge bust and a quarter of those  
01:38:48
were refunded just one other thing a bit of a hot  take hogan winning was actually the right decision  
01:38:56
because warrior weeks into his debut he's dead  in the water he's nowhere to go he can't wrestle  
01:39:02
can't cut a promo already getting booed hogan he's  still a draw um he can still do big money matches  
01:39:08
brett nash ddp goldberg possibly flare and he'd  have to wait a bit to do sting again because he  
01:39:14
did it's uh stark 87. okay the match is horrendous  had no business actually having the match but  
01:39:20
there's nowhere to go at warrior well  there's one way and that's down way down  
01:39:28
because this is a very famous bad match i just  have a list of responses to the match bischoff  
01:39:33
says the worst he's ever seen mean gene says  a disaster warrior says it's funny how my best  
01:39:41
match of my career is with hogan and also my worst  matches with hogan wrestling observers minus five  
01:39:47
stars hogan and warrior pick up the most overrated  award in 98 but only number three in the worst  
01:39:52
card of the year number one was fall bra wow  osw 102. pw torch's wade kellers called it a dud  
01:40:01
post wrestling's john pollock rated it  lower than jenna marasco versus charmelle
01:40:08
because it has two headline performers so he's  giving a context yeah yeah yeah yeah contextually  
01:40:14
and my favorite is sports illustrated luke winkle  who calls the match a passive aggressive wankfest
01:40:23
oh great that's a great car  actually um i was thinking  
01:40:26
it might do a quickie kind of warrior  wrap-up so a final word on the warrior
01:40:42
his wcw run a bust warrior quietly exited the  company his last appearance that nitro saving  
01:40:48
ed leslie from horus it's during this time away  from wrestling where it all got very sour he got  
01:40:54
real into right wing talk radio this morphed into  writing some not even subtle racist and bigoted  
01:40:59
remarks on his blog so much so that his public  speaking events would be protested and flyers  
01:41:05
handed out informing his audience his hate speech  culminated with working himself up and shooting  
01:41:11
i'm not going to say and to immediate vociferous  disapproval a few years later and a decade into  
01:41:17
retirement a one-shot deal the ultimate warrior  returned to the ring with a new wrestling  
01:41:22
revolution in 2008 with spain see his daughters  wanted to see him he wanted to perform for his  
01:41:27
daughters just once which is lovely it's actually  the reason that goldberg came back to the yeah  
01:41:34
because the sun is older yeah he  jogs through the ring gasping for  
01:41:38
breath god love him everyone did  you watch this i did watch this  
01:41:42
you know what i started watching it today and i  was half an hour what no no there's nothing to  
01:41:50
even talk about it's like mostly time wasting like  running the ropes there's like lots of leaning
01:41:58
the old andre he like there are moments where he's  panting his heart is so knackered from years of  
01:42:06
drug abuse roids and like working out and mostly  the ico pro i would cure him what do you think  
01:42:16
that he just can't go and it's sad like i've  seen sadder wrestling matches but not many  
01:42:25
and boy who wins who wins sorry ah the warrior  wins he wins the title yeah he steamrolls orlando  
01:42:31
jordan wins the title and then immediately  vacates the belt and goes back into retirement
01:42:44
not even the grand reaper himself starving  to get his hands on my warrior soul  
01:42:52
time heals all wounds and in 2013 warrior  dipped his toe back into the water  
01:42:57
signing a licensing deal allowing wwe to  make action figures and be in wwe 2k14 if  
01:43:04
you are a long time wrestling fan seeing warrior  involved with wwe against such a freaking trip  
01:43:09
holy because he haven't he has an awesome  trailer ad for it where he's just although  
01:43:18
that went well and warriors  welcome back into wwe's fold  
01:43:22
culminating being inducted into the 2014 hall  of fame the writing is already on the wall it's  
01:43:29
not going to be anything personal when it's  time to go it's just going to be the way it is  
01:43:34
eerily what would become his final public  appearance ever the next night on raw he paid  
01:43:39
for well to his audience talking about how every  man's heart beats its final beat every man's heart  
01:43:46
one day beats its final beat his lungs breathe  their final breath in the wake of his death wwe  
01:43:53
established the warrior award something he alluded  to in his hall of fame speech although warrior  
01:43:58
wanted the jimmy miranda award to recognize  wwe's behind the scenes employees miranda was  
01:44:02
part of wwe's march department for over 20 years  but wwe perverted it into a feel-good publicity  
01:44:08
stunt award there's a lad with a double liver  transplant get up here they got enough heat for it  
01:44:13
and by 2019 they pledged to give the award to an  employee or wrestler like titus o'neil got it in  
01:44:18
2021 who actually deserved it for his impressive  off the clock humanitarian work in philanthropy
01:44:26
and the spirit of ultimate  warrior will run forever
01:44:40
so some dizzing highs terrifying lows for the  person warrior and the character warrior uppercase  
01:44:47
lowercase ws a comic book superhero come to life  a colorful muscle-bound madman who is iconic  
01:44:54
inimitable who preached show no mercy  for your greatness will silence them all  
01:44:59
and taught us to always believe and  some other things i can't remember
01:45:12
so that does it for the end of halloween havoc  what do you think of this whole uh hoopla enjoy  
01:45:18
our time in wcw i did i look forward to  coming back at some point in the future  
01:45:24
sometime very soon in the future what would  you do what do you think oh yeah it was  
01:45:30
great to take a break from you know like  the the fed and 1995 uh and new jersey  
01:45:39
you know we get some real primo bollocks over the  last few weeks we get to see the other side of  
01:45:46
wrestling at its hottest i wasn't overly in love  with some of the booking and you know run-ins and  
01:45:51
dqs and all of that jazz but are you annoyed with  the quality of the run-in like who was running in  
01:45:57
the same people every match it's either buff  vincent or stevie ray or the flock or horace hogan
01:46:07
listen you wanted the best we didn't get the  best i thought that was a different gravy
01:46:19
