Unless you had a bad question, which there is I have specifically Stelle elected
one bad question. That's my new thing now for the new season, I'm
always pick one bad question so we can make fun of somebody. They're all
bad, all right? Come on, man, how about this one here?
This is from U. I went to top golf. The golf was
fun, but the top was next level. Asks were good? All right?
Whose ship the biggest pants full of doodo? That's a tough one.
It's a tough one listening between us. We're going like grand scale because if
we're going just between us three, I mean it's James, Oh no,
yeah, I don't know, Johnny, I don't know. I've me.
I saw just recently Tyler One's brothers shit his pants on stream and that was
that. It was interesting. He's done it lot. Sure. Andre definitely
shit on dudes right like in the Ring. Oh, I don't know.
Huh yeah, three thousand, three thousand might have three thousand row turn for
you, who would have done greatest wrestler? I bet who did the biggest,
the biggest? Come on, Tony, keep up? Who ship the
biggest pants full of dude? Du oh? That was Stevio for sure.
Remember that time you sh steal when he ran and ship at the same time
he was running really really fast. You ever see Oh yeah, like Diary,
It's like he og back in the day at the same time it was
crazy. Was that the biggest? It was pretty crazy? And you remember
family guys remember a family guy the Y two K where Peter Ate all the
u the food and then he Ate drank a glass of water and he told
everyone to get out now. Because definitely Peter Griffin. Okay, that's a
good answer. I'll accept that answer. That's a good one. Um.
Probably the only person in the Balkans consuming deadlock Ski and I mean this za
Dom's friend me asks, that's just the name. It's not right. The
question is how's your lips? They're fine? Oh good? Okay. Connor
asks, if you had a choice to pick a name of a defunct promotion
or a pass paper of the event that is not in use anymore for your
next DPW show, what would you pick? Name wise? So like No
Mercy or Great Balls of Fuck? These were his examples. W B Lockdown
would be the DPW show name DPWWCW Lockdown, of course. Okay, I
mean there's a lot of great WCW FU. I mean Halloween havoc is I
love the name slam Boree. Slam Boree is fucking the what ably? Yeah?
I mean I like CyberSlam the UCW one. Yeah, that's true.
I like the massacre on thirty fourth Street, Dude, I don't know why
I always I remember that because I was at like my cousin's house and I
watched it. I don't know why that name is so like, I'm pretty
sure it was a December paper view two because it was like a Christmas thing.
What about here's some ECW names for you. What about Orgy of Violence?
You like that one. That one hardcore Heaven is kind of cool.
Russell Fest. Yeah, let's see what else I living dangerously it's fun.
I'd probably take Russell War and then ripped the logo off, and then I'd
probably yeah, yeah, that's it. Ain't Seinfeld. That's gotta be one.
We told that story right before the story oh the d V the DVD.
We were at the h Yeah, when we were at the con or
whatever. You can say, you can tell him. Some people might not
have heard it, Okay, yeah we were there. Who was there,
Tommy Dreamer, someone, It's like all you see it's like an easy w
lin of I think Samman was making it. Okay, I remember the story
now this and they were all at the table. We're just looking through this
ship and then like they had obviously just they're fucking RF fucking videos. Yeah.
Um, and they're sitting there on the table and we were looking through
it or whatever and we saw the Seinfeld joint. What did we say,
Tony out loud one who said so yeahs by this it was You're like,
wow, this looks like shit. It was Tommy Dreamer by this sh Simon
Diamond was probably there. Simon Dean definitely there. Yeah, you're right.
Yeah, Slammery is a fucking good name, though, isn't it super broad?
That's the fucking dude, it's super broad. If we can somehow buy
the Rice super Brawl, that would be our WrestleMania Like yeah, yeah.
Super Bawl is like one of my favorite ever super b All Saturday, super
Bawl Saturdays. This uh, this is a tough question. Here is one.
I feel like I'm gonna have to think about Golden Skull asks what is
something good you can say about Tena's worst year and something bad you can say
about Tina's best year? The best year one, I think might be an
easier one because we just watched that show. So for the best year,
I'd say they had horrible pay per view magic pacing. Yeah, oh yeah,
they had that for their whole life. Best thing from their worst year,
is that what you're saying? Yes, best thing for the worst year.
Wow, I think the worst year is because two out the nine twenty
ten that kind of comes to mind for me. Yeah, I guess,
Okay, so I guess if you want to say twenty tens is worst year
for me just because yeah, then We'll say the best thing was probably the
fucking the show. We watched the whole of a show that was probably like
the best thing they came out twenty ten was fun. Yeah, that and
like they i mean, the exhabition still had an identity. They were still
trying to do something with them, but it was, you know, not
great. There's just a lot of bullshit. Yeah, it took up a
lot of a lot of shit. It was I'm trying to think of anything
that I from there the years that I love that I had about their best
year Yeah, so five, um, sure, a lot of bullshit in
the heavyweight division. Yeah, heavyweight division was kind of man. Yeah,
the top of the card was always worse than the than like the middle of
the card for some reason. Yeah, you're right. Yeah, And they
could never start the show off hot. Ever, there was never never a
shot where Teeneggus started the show of hot. I don't think the the I
guess, I mean you, I know you listen to what my water are
you used to? I don't ever come up of like what their philosophy on
a starting a show was, because it didn't seem like there was one.
Well, Jared always said that they wanted to give a little bit of something
to everybody, which now nowadays especially I don't want to exactly know if that
even works. Like, yeah, we talked about that before, but like
I definitely feel like people nowadays watch a show for one reason and like trying
to fill a card with everything make sure that no one watches it. Like
I feel like I feel like you have to give you there's a give and
take, but there's definitely not a like TNA would be like here's fucking Mini
Wrestling, and here's fucking the X Division and then we have DDP and then
we also have you know, it's just like random six man tag and here's
Yeah, it doesn't work now, that's definitely out working nowadays. It didn't
work ever for them. Yeah, like that never felt right they you know,
if you if you're not on our Patreon, patre dot com, SLI
like PW. Of course, we just watched Lockdown oh five. It's an
unbelievable example of I mean, the card wasn't great, but I feel like
it could have been an even better show if it was. Some of the
matches were moved around. Yeah, they just need a structure and shortened too.
Some of them did not have to go as long as they did.
I agree, Yeah, if like it would have been. It's funny looking
at shit with hindsight because obviously now it's supper as you called to make.
But yeah, especially as we get longer and longer nowadays, I feel like
people want shorter matches with more actions, so like, and I don't even
know if the industry is really caught up with that yet. I don't think.
I don't think the industry is caught up with like people want like six
to eight, but like with a with the same amount of shit that there
wasn't intensity and meaning yeah, yeah, like we'll actually talk about in this
show as we get into raw um that we're gonna talk about later, but
like being able to pack a fifteen minute match into eight and not making it
seem like it's fucking like you're trying. You have to make it not seem
like you're packing fifteen to eighty eight. Has we just action packed strong eight?
Yeah? Yeah, and that and that's not even done by the moves
or the things you do. It's more so like how you treat the match
and how intents you are in the match and the things that you do and
a long that way. But like I feel like nowadays we haven't caught out
of that, and Tina really didn't understand that ship like that, you know
what I mean, if you got six or something, the only guys that
were giving you a hot six where the where aj styles and fucking you know
what I mean? The top X division guys you give six to fucking anyone
else in that card. Back on, t Anda even lost due or there,
just like I got I got nothing for you, I got nothing.
How long was that your right? How long was that fucking Jeff Hardy Shannon
More match we watched that couldn't have been even ten? Was it was like
yeah, it felt like fifteen? Yeah, yeah, No, Clue had
to like tighten that shit up. I feel like, Okay, so if
a match has a fifteen minute time limit, like the match should be fought
at a faster pace because in KFAB the wrestlers know that that that like,
hey fuck we have we have fifteen minutes to beat this guy. Yeah,
Like a draw is not a win. So like if you do a draw,
then like that's not what you wanted to come into this match by doing
it. If you fucking lose us now what you wanted to do, so
like trying to the ka ideas should be I have to beat him quickly.
The match should be paced at a quicker rate than if I got to finish
this now. Yeah, that's the reason. That's the reason for the time
limits is so like obviously there's real reasons for the time limits. And then
yeah and T and A. They those guys, especially the heavyweight guys.
Heavyweight guys, if they they give you six, you're getting ten and there's
nothing in it at all, nothing in at all at all, and then
like the end of the match, they'll fucking finish. Yeah that's pretty much
it. So it's like you'll get a run in, ref, bump whatever,
finish. So definitely that I think. Yeah, guys definitely pride themselves
on, especially now going long. I don't know when that started. I
don't know if that's when like Kenny and Okada started doing. You know,
Chris here on a podcast said something recently about that. Um I saw a
clip on Twitter. It's pretty much generational wash in two thousand and five,
and we talked about it when we watched uh watch Noah, and we sure
stuff like that before from that time period. But like there's the guys in
Roh at the time that we're emulating the Noah's style because they existed within that
same time period. Then there's the two thousand, like it's like five years
later. So twenty ten there's the guys imitating the guys that were imitating Noah.
Then twenty fifteen there's the guys imitating the guys that were imitating the guys.
So like there's like a wash at some point where it's like, Okay,
now we have no idea what we're imitating anymore. Process right, And
I feel like that sometimes gets lost in there. It's like, oh,
we'll do the moves, but we don't exactly understand like why this works or
why they came from or why they did it in context. Ye, like
a lot of guys don't. A lot of guys don't. Like if you
kids, Kay Sasaki is like a great wrestler to watch where he'll go ten
and give you a match that looks like it was like it could have been
thirty with you. Yeah, you're you'll be so into it that it'll feel
like it was like a fucking main event thirty minute draw. Yeah, but
it was just a ten minute match. Yeah, like that easy because he
was just so intense and that everything he did was with a he was trying
to beat you, you know what I mean, he wasn't. Yeah,
he knew he had fucking shorter time. He's gonna beat you. That's just
what he did, especially as WCW stuff too, Like he had shorter time,
so he fucking beat the shit out of you. And like that's kind
of been lost in a way. I feel like in uh, you know,
in two thousand and five. It's it's crazy to look back when I
feel like TNA had the untapped potential TNA had an O five should be studied,
unbelievable, should be studied. The amount of talent you're telling me,
Like you tell me, Noah wouldn't want to work with TNA, you know
what I mean, not only the talent that they had, James, but
the talent they could have also stolen from the fucking anywhere on the Indians.
Yeah, yeah, they there was a ton of guys that just passed by,
and especially an era where like TNA hadn't didn't have a stigma yet or
anything. So like it was still cool to like, it was still cool
to light TNA, right, and it was still cool to work for TNA.
So um, definitely, I think if you really, if we want
to bring it back to that question, Yes, the worst thing about the
Best era is the sheer untapped potential that never got discovered, whether it be
from the pacing of the card, or the people that they didn't have in
the company, or the people they decided to push over the people that probably
should have been pushed, or the way that they formatted things because they were
still thinking it's two thousand and one or it's nineteen ninety nine instead still TBF.
Yep, it's still nitro. So yeah, that's a pretty deep answer,
but that's potential. Yeah, I was just thinking about you're talking about
urgency and stuff and the matches going along and stuff like that. I was
thinking about it when they were on Fox Sports, like it like forced them
to do like the Fox Yeah, not even just a FoxBox, was just
the matches themselves, like just how like they had an hour so they had
to put these matches together and they were like good matches too, and then
they were just like faster matches, but they were good. Well, something
good about Teena's worst here is that they let the pigeons loose brought out,
Hey, good fucking question. They're goals, goals shots out. Let's see.
Oh here's James, this one specifically for you, um the Dutch nut
destroyer Balluster Sack asks James, how come you rag that Drew Gulak for saying
the rutto is better than DBZ even though your cats are names are Boma and
Chee cheeld docks me. Well, Guessie knows that somehow our Boma and Cheechi
from a dragon ball Z. Yeah that's grect, So what does that have
to do with you? First off, Chechi wasn't named after dragon ball Z.
As want to make sure that's that's abunnyly clear. So my mom used
to call the cat chee Chee because she just thought it was a funny incidence,
right, And then I named the other cat ban because I thought it
was so Yeah, Chichi was originally not named Cheechi because of dragon ball Z.
But when I got my other cat, when I adopted Boma, I
thought it was a funny reference to this funny right to a character that it
was like she wasn't named after that, but like she was already named that.
So I was like, oh, I'll just call her balman because your
name chee chi um. But yes, Naruto is better than DBZ. I
just want to make sure that's abundantly clear. Naruto clears DBZ. I only
want to hear. But like, yeah, so that's the story of my
head was saying. I thought that's a good story. I was saying,
you were getting giving Gleec shit for saying that Naruto is better than DBZ.
So that's why I was like, what is no, no, no,
no, no, no, DBZ better than Naruta. Okay, okay,
okay, that which is incorrect. But let me also make sure he's a
bundela everybody. I like a dragon ball Z. I like it a lot
of cats. But I'll tell you right now, you know what I meant?
Your ass flustered? Do you know what I mean? Don't you give
me started? Hey, don't you give me started on that? But that's
a whole different conversation. How are the cats doing? Is there any cat
updates? You likes to give it the pod um? Yeah? She she
sits in the chair and meals just vomits vomits in the chairs. She shud
she's unhinged. Twenty four seven. Yeah, she's a crazy bastard um balma
is. She's just always around. She's always cats I've ever encountered. Yeah,
No, she's fantastic. I she she got rescued from a place or
whatever. She was like she was like abused I guess by her other people
who own Yeah, I know that's because then when I got her, I
was like, she's like the biggest sweetheart ever, Like she man doesn't do
anything. She always hangs out. My favorite Boma moments are when Tony comes
to your house and he puts his bag down in your in your dining room
or your living room, sorry, and then she just decides that's where she's
sleeping from now on. It's it's always it's enough for her to lay on.
Yeah. She's also like she didn't ever get full size, like she's
always been like a run she's always been like yeah, she never had full
size or anything. Yeah. Yeah, she's cool. Yeah, her name
is one than the other che is. Uh. We found her outside just
out like chilling. Yeah. So like my sister's friend at the time just
brought a cat and was I found his cat outside and she was like she
was like dead. I mean she was like yeah, yeah, she was
like fucking she was like super worms and yeah yeah worms and fleet out crazy
and like we had to like she was so like infested in ship that we
had to like give or like medicine or whatever. But everything. I think
most people know that, like when a cat's that small and you give them
that like that flea joint, like it, it has a chance to killing
them. Yeah, it has a chance to kill them. Um. Yeah,
And she like definitely was not making it through the night, but then
she ended up making it the night. And now she's in there me owing
and throwing up and playing around and I don't know what cats. Well,
I just wanted to dock sho. So that's really all that was about that.
Well there you go. Yeah, no problems. That's all I got
in my life. So I will tell you all the time about my cats.
Uh fat ride back asks is there anything that you like about the Undertaker?
It's gotta be something of the school. I like the the ministry Top
three things you like? Darkness was awesome to ministry corporate corporate ministry school too.
I guess you can rolling. Rolling, I do like rolling was cool.
Rolling was cool. Whips yeahs cool. What about Big Evil? Was
cool hardcore matches when he was hardcore ship? Sure, yeah, it's my
wife. It's not so much him. Remember the dip cup Era taker,
Oh yeah, making Tommy dream he was dipping on this episode. Oh yeah,
he was. You're right he He didn't make Tommy Dreamer do it.
Tommy Drimmer just did it. I think, didn't he because that was his
gimmick at the time. He was a gross best maybe not a gimmick,
but it definitely wasn't a gimmick. The chair spot. I don't know if
he invented it, but he's the first one that I saw do it.
Or he puts it on your throat and smashes it down. Dude, they
put in the game for it. That was awesome. That's awesome. That's
a good Also like being the locker room leader in hazing. Everybody is that
right? Russia? His court was awesome. Was okay, I'm just telling
you about things I like. Yeah, well this is personal of course,
yes, bowling hyah, you know everybody making the miss dress and somewhere else.
Yeah, that's right. I don't know if that was him. That
was another one. No, that was him too. From did that all
right? Last couple questions here, Kevin asked, what is your favorite wrestling
video game weapon of all time? There's been a lot of fucking weapons in
wrestling games. It's hard to not immediately think of giant block of cheese from
No Mercy? Was it just bring it the head Moppy Moppy in the crowd?
Yeah, you go into the crowd and you can pick up Moppy.
For some reason, I remember that, like very vividly from being a kid
like I would always go into the crowd and be like, holy shit,
man, the mop is still here. This is a every time. The
giant book No Mercy had a bunch of fun weapons. I mean, aw
really stepped it up with the fucking weapons in the games. Uh with Fight
Forever. I mean, the tags are unfucking believable. I love the cool,
awesome exploding propane tank is fucking se that thing? What was it?
Was it an electrified bat you hit me with or something that legit blows up
when you can just sweep them up where you go. That was the Q
and a thank you for us some of your questions and uh, now it's
time for the retroview. Who all right, Now it's time to get into
Raw September twenty five, two thousand, otherwise known as the debut of Raw
on t n N t N more raws are coming. Before we get into
let's take a look at what was going on in the wrest of the World
with the Wrestling Observer newsletter. We got one here from September eighteenth, two
thousand, ECW. I put this in here because we just watched him on
TNAS. Gonna has expressed some interest in Michael Shane, who has already been
working some prelimbs for the company and worked for WCW this past week, who
is the nephew of Shawn Michaels. I would never know that. They never
uh. And they're also interested in Teddy Hart, the nephew of Brett Hart,
with the idea of feuding them because it's the nephew of Sean versus the
nephew of Brett, which they could have They could have saved Teddy Hart.
Dude, they could have saved Teddy Hart four hundred times. Is gonna have
an in ECW, Yes, this was gonna be an easy verse the nephews
of Brett and Set. That would have been fucking nuts. Yeah, dude,
Teddy Hart could have You're right, James, They I mean maybe,
I don't know if ECW could have, but somebody could have, right,
somebody, anybody Hello put him in the FED with the Heart Foundation now maybe
Yeah, he got signed to be put in the Hart Foundation with fucking Tyson
kid and uh, what's his name, Davy boy? And then uh,
they told him to specifically to not do like three things during a dark match
or you're being scouted. They told him, like dah, don't do a
flip, don't do a promo, and don't curse. So the first thing
he does, their opponents are making the entrance, he does that springboard shooter
to the floor. He grabs the mic and says, what the fuck is
going motherfuckers? And then they fired them. We come on, like,
I like this guy. He's got some much fun. This guy. Yeah,
j that's fucking insane, man, there's Johnny was definitely ringside. He'sa
get this fucking guy out of here, get this fucking goof out of this
place. I don't know about that one. Sorry, sorry, I don't
know. Just don't work for me, you don't. I'm gonna go harass
a bunch of people now, good good shooter though, kid, yes look
pretty good. Maybe one day you worked for the WB. There's fucking sequence.
I like that s just not today the things that Missus Babba used to
put on. Maybe maybe you get rid of a couple of cats, and
maybe maybe you leave women alone and maybe get clue up, wake up,
you fucking idiot and changes his get a clue maybe wake up or something?
Buddy. It's like, does he rudst? You guys have to watch Lockdown?
You have to watch Lockdown on our face shot. It's unbelievable. What
reference WCW news. This one's for you boys. Since people from time to
time ask about Dustin Runnels, he is still under contract. Everyone has been
asking, which is like something don't know, but okay again, can we
ask which is the best of one? Do you? I don't know what
the best Dustin rylds gimma kiss Tony. I wish it was the way we
could find out though. I just want to know. Maybe one day.
Well, he's still in a contract and there's no explanation as to why he's
not around. Russa wanted to bring him in with a gig similar to gold
Dust. He's been waiting for a start. DUC dude, Yeah, he
stinks like my pussy stinks anywhere near this ship. Well, Dusty's bookings.
We've talked about the ICP shoot with them talking about him right, that he
was a weird fucker. No, I don't think so. I don't think.
Yeah, dude, when i CP was in WWF, gold Dust would
like fun with them. So Like I think one time they were walking down
the hallway and he's sitting on the floor and they, you know, they
say hey, hey, mister gold Dust, how are you And he he
looks at at him, he says, my pussy stinks, shaggy. Yeah.
He I'd walk by me and say stuff weird shit like I eat poop.
That's what it is. Like. He's not the type of guys that
go live about that kind of thing. This is this real sh Yeah,
that's incredible. Definitely happened. Man from The Observer, September twenty fifth,
two thousand. Meltzer, Right's the only real I had coming out of Thunder
on September thirteenth, besides being kind of numbed by the bad acting. Good
Lord, somebody send Tyling Buck to acting school and fast, and please all
caps. Somebody released Mike Awesome from that contract he made with the Devil all
those years ago that allowed him to be two hundred ninety pounds and do toe
pace for ten years without suffering a career ending injury. But at the end
of the ten years he has to take on a gimmick worse than the Red
Rooster now seventies oh many, Yeah, well, I mean it's real passionate.
Please somebody literally. I if it wasn't Russo booking, he would have
been fine. I think you probably would have been the top guy there.
You're right, yeah, I mean, especially when everyone else left. I
assume he probably would have taken that top spot pretty quick. He was so
goddamn good. We can't talk about it anymore, though, it's um like,
yeah, we can't. We can't say said you already know, you've
already fucking know this. Here we go, the situation on Dustin Reynolds.
I know you guys have been asking. I just want to make sure to
come back around here. Because you were asking. Is that they were going
they were going to bring him back, as you guessed it Platinum, a
takeoff on the gold Dust character, but threatened the lawsuit and they backed off.
And now have no ideas for him. So he's sitting at home getting
paid and does some indie stuff and works for his father's promotion. So WCW
gold Dust was going to be platinum. That was the gimmick. I feel
like I remember that for something, you would have just been silver and his
balls staring. You're right, there were dark carnival stuff. He's not.
He's backstay durazzid icp. He just follows them around their tar career. I
mean, yes, yes, mister platinum. At one point backstage, Nitro
Conan reportedly handcuffed himself to the disco duck to keep Disco from bringing it out
on DV Yeah ducks duck WWF news. The Taz character is supposed to be
based on a schoolyardposed to be based well, we need you to be based
how does that mean you come on? He was supposed to be based on
schoolyard bully who tries to bully people around, but when the baby face stands
them, uppy bags down. I hate this. I hate that they did
this. Put him in a track suit like a schoolyard bully. They try
to make look better. Yeah, that's it for the news. At the
time, and let's talk about Raw the TNN debut. All right, now
it's time to get into the debut of Raw on t N. My life
in a box, dude. So I was like, damn, no cold
open, uh, you know, no recap or anything for the grand opening
on TNN here, like intro to WF or anything. I guess they assume
everyone knows what the this is. But then I realize it's because the opening
town hall goes twenty five minutes. It is so so long. It is
so long, it is maybe a record setting long on this podcast, this
fucking opening. Yeah, it's like, damn everyone who show we just talked
the whole time. Um. When they did the intro at the beginning.
By the way, it's obviously version one of this, or at least it
feels like it, because there's so many of the shots in the intro that
I don't recognize. I was like, I don't some of these, I
like don't feel like the iconic Raw intro shots. Yeah, that's what I
said. Something doesn't seem right with this intro. I don't know what it
is, but yeah, I think it was just unfamiliar shots. There was
one of Tory doing a splash off the top to the floor through a table.
I was like, that is fucking crazy. I don't remember that happening.
That's awesome. Should guy in there? Dude? When does the TNN
guy debut? I I am unfamiliar. Actually I don't know. Yeah.
I think invasion because Booker t was in the commercial for the t and oh
he was cool, he had jeans. They were just were they still the
Nashville Network right now, Tony? And then they don't change to the National
Network until TNN Guy. I think so because I think it was like the
rebrand, right, was like that was a big deal for them, Like
that's why they got That's why they got the um the guy or whatever TNN.
TNN man just looks like John Cena. He does look like, yeah,
he's September twenty fifth is when they re named the National Network. This
episode, Wow, so this is the new TNN. Wow. Viacom reduced
whatever acquisition to the WWF programming, decided to refocus TNN. The network renamed
the Nation National Network. So it was like getting the w WF was like
part of there was the part of the change. Wow. Okay, I
guess later they were the new TNN. Yeah right, they were, that's
what they They became the new TNN. That's probably around the time that like
book or t like the I assume like, yeah, okay, yeah,
real quick. I don't know if we're gonna be able to talk about Spike
TV too much of this episode, so I just want to get off at
the top. Spike TV was shout out to thousand Ways to Die Bro.
Yeah, they lost in show was crazy, man, show should not have
been a real thing like that sounds crazy? Yeah, that was he What
was that one Joy MXC? Is that what it was? Super there's a
switch channel that just shows that all the time. By the way, they
got something like that still in Japan Rock and you know that. Oh I
feel like you saw the advertisements for it. Yeah, on the train,
Yeah, which is crazy, damn IM trying to what else was on Spike
There definitely was other And what about Stripper of bro come on? Oh yeah,
come on, man, that's the real fucking Ultimate Fighter was on there
too. That was crazy for a while. Oh yeah, there's here's the
top shows inc. Maaster Redemption MXC, Oh my god, Living Moss,
Inc. Master Auction, hundreds Thousand Ways to die, Deadliest Warrior, remember
Deadliest Dude? The Joe Schmo Show US, that's crazy, Wow, Joe
Schmos show like now on or yeah really on work. I don't know,
I got to look it up. But it's also Rendan Stimpy's adult party cartoon.
We can. We talked about that recently. The rat that ship was
definitely better when it wasn't an adult cartoon, I'll tell you that much.
Yeah, the adult cartoon crazy. Yeah, you're right, that's a good
way of putting it. Like the straps came off and they should have stayed
on. Yeah, you're right. I want to watch Joe Schmo now man
watching dude TBS very funny Jo Smo show. Yeah, coming up. There's
no way that ship's worth of ship is there? No fucking chance. But
the first season only worked because of the guy that was on it. The
first awesome Yeah yeah, yeah, he was awesome. But the other I
don't know, dude. The Ultimate Fighter was such a big deal for Spike.
It was like ratings. I remember reading about the ratings even back then,
and it was just like unfucking real, Like the surge was so nuts
back then. That saved UFC. And then of course Surge was also on
T you get everything, you just get it all here at deadlock. I
but you what the fuck? Yeah? So we start off here we have
the stone Coat, Steve Auston town Hall. What what? Yeah, dude,
it is not only the Steve Auston town Hall, but it is the
Crisp and wat town Hall. It is the mcfoley town Hall, the town
Hall, it's everybody and anything you could think of. We gotta talk about
it. It is I legit in my notes, I had to, like
I usually separate segments just by segment. I had the legit caught this in
like three or four different parts, because yeah, it's a ton yeah,
but Steve Austin looks fucking awesome here. This is like six Steve Auston.
Man, it comes out hell Razor, merch, gold chain, gold watch,
Camo had George fucking He's ready me Bryce over gene shorts. Yeah.
The Georges are so far up as ship like that, so they actually get
higher up as time goes on. I don't know if anyone knew that,
but they continue to rise. I feel like that's right. I feel like
he definitely. I think at some point in like you know, when he
started doing it, like what maybe ninety seven he started wearing those or whatever,
maybe ninety six. They were definitely high, and then they get shorter
and then they come back up. There's like a weird news the races where
they start getting crazy high when he has he's got. Yeah, when he's
like GM or whatever, he don't think it really high. Yeah, they
do for sure. Like you said, James, this shirt is awesome.
As the skull on the front with the flames, it kind of looks like
the shirt we had. What it's not this, He had a whole line
of stuff like this that was I think it was only available on like Steve
Auston dot com or so. Yeah, he had like a kick ass line
of merch on the back of it, it says by Jack Jass. I
think I remember reading something at some point that like he made the merch and
then cut a deal with WW that allowed him to get an even bigger cut
of the merchandise. I don't know if this is true or not. I
don't like hold me too, No, no, no, he definitely designed
all of his merchandise. Yeah, yeah, I'm pretty sure that that this
way. I don't know about the cut thing. That probably sounds right because
he designed it. You know, I wanted to get a higher cut,
but he was the one who was like, yeah, this is badass merchant,
and he wanted to make sure that it was cool because like, oh
that's awesome. Yeah, and it was always the best too, it was.
It was fucking sweet. You can see one piece of confetti froll from
the sky here land on his like shoulder during the entrance. What the fuck
is this? I think you can actually hear Jerry Lawler like accidentally catch a
piece of confetti like in his mouth at one point, like really earlier,
this Jerry. That's awesome. But yes. Steve also starts his town hall
by saying that Vince has left the WWF go have some babies. Oh boy,
yeah, you know, and the ten months is Stone coach Steve Alson
has been gone. A lot of things have changed. First off, he
got Vince McMahon leaving the company so he could go make babies. Well,
due to the fact that Shane and Stephanie both turned out to be complete jackasses.
I hope for the sake of the human race, that's some bitches shooting
bucks. If I got here a little sooner, I would have clubbed that's
some bitch over the head and taken him to get a vasect to me clinic
myself vi sect to me. Another major development, you got triplate to Stephanie
marriage. They're on and off again. They're on again, they're off again.
They're in power, they're out of power. To me, long story,
shirt, it's the worst marriage in history of the business. And that's
all I got to say about that. This marriage is the worst. And
well, another thing that struck me is being weird. You got a guy
named Midian running around in this place. Buck naked is crazy? Watch maybe
the show? Yeah, yeah, well you expected some bitch to have the
dncy decency to get six tube to clear a hill and get those bit bulls
off his ass. And then obviously he talks about coming back at Unforgiving and
he wants to drink beer, raised up both middle fingers and do what he
wants. And I, if I don't find the yellow bash start that ran
me down at Survivor series, I'm directing his comment to all the w WF
superstars. I'm gonna weed my way through everyone, last one of you,
because getting back in the ring ain't good enough. What I'm saying is I'm
not doing a damn thing until I get my pay back. So he's just
flipping out because this is he got hit by a car. He's back from
being hit by He got like a legit car hit him in the back.
If you don't know that, I don't know where you were. But he
got ran over by a car. Yeah, somebody had Survivor series, uh
hit him with a car and we don't know still at this point, I
think it was a because shoot, reason was the next thing, right,
he had to get next surgery or something. That's always that. Yeah,
it was like, yeah, it was that actually talks about it. Yeah
he does. Yeah, you're right, um, but yeah, So Steve
Austin goes to celebrate after he runs down everything pretty much burries everyone. Yeah,
just pretty much lets everybody on TNN know what the funds going on in
this show. I was hit by a car. Triple A just definitely run
the place. Vince is a here. There was a guy named Midi and
he is but ass naked all the time and he's got pimples on his ass.
Crazy and that's the bottom line. Because Stow coll said so, yeah,
all right, cool, Yeah, that's to say about that. That's
what he says. I was happy with that. That was happy to end
it there, and uh, he goes to celebrate. Here's the corner and
mcfoley's here, commissioner mcfoley as well, he's he's the commission I don't remember
how he became commissioner, did Linda. That's probably Linda fucking call Linda when
they were going to make babies. I think that's what the story appointed him
because Vince is busy making basse was after Mania two thousand retirement, Yes,
yes, he's already back from that, right, yeah, yeah, yeah,
so mfol April. Yeah, mcfoley says that ten months ago when he
got his neck injury and fully retired. So it's been a while. Steve
Auston has been kind of out and fully you know, retired after wrestling in
two thousand and then he got brought back. He's like, I didn't think
i'd see both of us in the ring together again. Mcfole is very nice.
He doesn't even feel like a character here. He's just a very nice
guy. Yeah, he's yeah, he's like he's a pushover. Yes,
okay, pushover is a really good fucking way to put it. He's not
cactus Jack. He's not mankind. This is mcfoley. He's just trying to
do his job well pretty much. Yeah, he's got some books to write
too. Yeah, how fucking a lot of books. You actually never stop
hearing about the books. Yeah, they won't go away. He's got some
books and he's got some stand up to try out too. Also, Yes,
lots of comedy stand up funny bits with this commissioner. Folly. Mcfoley
gets the Pinn State University cheap pop, which, uh, you know,
fantastic. It's like the cheap pop. I always say that's the one thing
I will never not like or not not like. Excuse me, the cheap
pop always makes me laugh. Dude, he didn't do the Penn State You
are an asshole or whatever it was Penn State. Yea, he take his
ass. Has anyone tried to do that since you no? Like in wrestling,
Yeah, like that kind of like back and forth thing in a crowd.
I feel like I'm only the rock. No, I don't think.
I don't think that people are allowed to talk to the crowd like that.
Oh I guess you're like, we know where they can at dpwa, Yeah,
that's right. Um. Polly says that he will find the man that
Austin's looking for. Austin doesn't have to go around kicking right his ass.
Are you are you good? Yeah? Miss Steve, Austin fucking fires back
crazy at no, No, I'm not sucking you. Fucking you letting me
first of all, I think you know as well as ennyboy. I don't
give a damn bad authority figures. He pretty like this is where it just
doesn't feel. I think, I guess so research shows who is this ball
him? Why do you have a got because I don't think your little investigation
is making very much progress. And I think you know what I mean,
and fully says no, I don't. I don't know what you mean actually,
and as she says, yeah, I'll explain it a little clear here.
I don't know how. I don't know that it was you driving a
rent a car. I mean, I know you're one of the worst drivers
in this business. He thinks fully could have did it because he's a shitty
Is this true? Sorry? DNN says yes, uh, and then they
start arguing off Mike, so it's just them like kind of talking ship back
to each other and then all of a sudden, wait a minute, what
is this standing? And Chris ben Wah comes down to the ring and I
was like, what is fucking something's wrong here? He doesn't have wrist tape
on? So yeah, it did look Yeah, it looks very strange here.
You know what's funny is back in the day, on like the w
B games, they used to struggle all the time with like not giving guys
the right wrist tape or not giving a risk tape at all, or whatever
the case may be. Remember people used to say that to me all the
time. It's like, oh, that guy doesn't have fucking wrist tape and
be like what are you talking about? Who cares he doesn't have rist tape?
And now like look at people would't know wrist tateent go, you need
to put some wrist tape on, please, Sunding like an albat pad or
a kneepad missing, Like yeah, it completely throws it off. I don't
know. Yeah why that. I didn't notice it as a kid either though.
I was like you said, but yeah, I completely notice it now.
So ben Wah is here to address an even bigger injustice than the drive
by Oh no, yeah, Ben Wah says, last night, oh he
was the two time w Yeah. Yeah, he's a two time WWF champion
last night, but it was taken from him. And then Mick Foley just
fucking agrees. He says, yeah, you're right, Yeah, you're right,
and you should get a rematch because of this. I agree. Okay,
Yeah he's a champ by the way, Yeah, of course he is.
He's the fus Steve Steve. Austin left for a little bit and the
Rock just grabbed the ball and said it's mine. Now I'm taking dude,
that is. And I don't know if Auston ever gets a bag. I
don't think so, dude it Yeah, and the rockingly drops it when he
leaves, like he was like he wouldn't have given it up, Like if
he wasn't just leaving, did you? I didn't. I thought for some
reason, I thought Kurt was in that match. But Kurt wasn't in that
match. He Kurt faced Triple H at the pay per view, right,
but they had the stuff angle. Yeah, the four way was Rock,
Ben Wah, Undertaker, and Kane for the WWF title wins sixteen. You
gotta respect that Kane was still in that I was that's still part I was
surprised by Yeah. I mean he must have. I mean he was still
fucking super over and you know, I guess they hadn't completely killed him yet.
Well, so, yeah, Folly says ben Wah was screwed. He
said, you were so screwed. Fuck it, man, you We're gonna
do Ben Wah versus Rock for the title Here to Night at Penn State University.
Yeah, what is that song? Curn angle long red track pants?
He just looks like the rock Yeah. I love these looks, man,
I think these are all iconic looks for these guys. This feels like like
this was setting up for Like I feel like a lot of these are in
video games. These looks like the mcfolly with commissioner's shirt in a video game.
Just bring it, Ah, that's pretty cool. Does Folly have shaved
heady here? No though, No, no he doesn't. I think he
has a shaved head and just bring it. He does shave it at some
point, I guess soon he does. Absolutely. Yeah, by the way,
there's definitely a Folly. By the way, he why Folly also agreed
to give ben Wah the title shot because he he points to a fan.
He says, there's a young man holding a sign out there that says ben
Wah was, Yeah, that's a crazy sign. So that's why I gave
him because that one fan was, Yes, it's all about the fans here
on TNN and Raw True and Kurt Angle is here because he was screwed against
Triple H because Stephanie kicked him in the nuts Big Style kicked me in the
genitals and caused me my match. And I say almost thought, because a
big part of friendship is learning forgiven, Steph. I saw the tape last
night, and I saw how terrified you were of Triple H, and I
saw I forced himself on you after the match. I said, dude,
I love this here. I love this gas lighting angle, Kurt and Triple
and they're all three gas lighting each other. It's it's insane. Um yeah
longer, Yes I can, Yeah you can. Somebody had to go to
a title. Something's had a change my angle, yeah Angle, basically saying
Stephanie, you know one of my favorite quotes ever is you always say you
loved th Understorm. So's a few rain draws your friends. Basically is the
whole angle here that they do with Triple H. And uh, you know
he knows that she is scared of Triple H. But he can be her
shining night. He can be the saw I know you love me, baby
love me. It's so funny because like it's not even like Triple A is
doing anything, Like Triple H isn't doing it. He just exists belt you
can like he's like I could save you step from what like you know,
there's nothing to trip you know that he's the crazy eyed abuse of husband.
And then he beat me at the baby re view. And if anyone deserves
some justice, it's me mcfoley and that is true. Yeah, so Folly
then says, no, he's denied no rematch for you, Kurt. I
thought about it for seven or eight seconds and no, no. Kurt says,
well, except that for now, I want to I want to talk
about one incidence from last night with you, Austin. How dare you look
at me like that? Austin? And Austin gets in Kurt's face and he
says, what do you think? How how dare you think that me?
Or why he was a car? I mean, first of all, ben
Wall wasn't even here and I couldn't commit such an act. And last time
I offered you something very valuable, my friendship and a special replica of an
Olympic gold medal. You can't see the medal later. It's crazy. It
is crazy, he said. I considered to be very nice and you're not
really a winner, and what do you do? How do you respond?
You attack me? So I demand an apology here and I speak with Christmain
while here, because I don't want my career to go down to drain because
you were too slow to jump out of the way of a car LA's November.
You owe me and the rest of America apology. Dude, this was
so crazy. He was mouthing off crazy at Austin, Like all he's loved
seeing guy's mouth off at Austin because you knew, like it was like tension
building, you knew. Yeah, Like he looked at Austin and he's like,
you know, I offered you this medal and that was nice, because
it's like you're not even really a winner, like the loser. You're gonna
die the whole time. Has that Austin look he's building up excitement and seating
little eyes. Austin said, well, I appreciate the factor. You offer
me your friendship game in that gold medal, and I do kind of owe
you an apology, but uh, that's probably not gonna happen at night.
Let me just stuners. It's not like a snake, just stunners. The
let me stunner has been wall and then uh, the disturbed song plays in
jars and once didn't have music. That's disturbed And they're gonna be on heat
this Thursday. Great. Yeah, I love the way his delivery was here
because he kind of played it off. He was like, you know,
I was like, oh shit for a second. He was like apologize.
You know, I do kind of dot you an apology. That's probably not
gonna happen here tonight. Hesitate. It's just like got kick fucking stunner.
Yeah, super well done. Uh stuff here at the end, and uh,
I mean easy to say that. You're looking at like for the best
ever in the ring right now. Yeah, but this did go twenty minutes.
They get all the storylines in. They needed all the story lines.
Yeah, no one's going in a video. No. We needed the casual
stone call, you know, they needed everybody a casual fan needed to but
also the best line ever came out, was you were too slow to move
out of the way of the car. Yeah, I guess at the end
of the day, having Austin stunned them was was awesome. Yeah, there's
all This is also an episode. Well I don't want to spoil it,
but this has one of my favorite stunners of all time and I didn't even
know it was this show. Oh I'm excited to hear which one? Yeah,
okay, yeah, Well we start off here with Kane versus Rakishi.
That's the person James match. Hey man, they were swinging for vines for
a minute. I was like, I was sha all right before the match
start. By the way, they Lawler and Jay on commentaries say they're gonna
open up the brand new Playboy magazine tonight and it's gonna have exclusive pictures of
Mama Sita, and then they recap the ending of the eighteen minute segment.
It was too good. But also they replay the stunner two more times every
angle possible. Tony, they forgot about that, you know, Lawler.
So Kana Rakishi is James said, Lawler says, is a mirror is kin
getting bigger. He is fucking gigantic. So yeah, I fuck, you
haven't even seen half. Yeah, he's dick. He gets he probably gains
fifty more pounds. He is pure muscle dude by two thousand and one.
He is a fuck He's bursting at his skin. Is how fucking big he
is? Uh Jr. Says scheven hundred and fifty combined pounds between these two,
which I was like, only fucking shit, is that right? Seven
fifty combined? That is pretty nice. Kane was three hundred here, wasn't
he? Yeah, I guess so, which would make Rakishi four hundred and
fifty pounds. His ass was his ass was assid in here too. We
didn't get to Yeah, yeah, I guess I just have to wait four
hundred and twenty five pounds. Oh shit, all right, Well he was
a little bigger today, Tony, Yeah, twenty five today, trying to
so, yeah, Ky versus Rakishi. Here. Rakishi no sunglasses or diaper,
which is weird that it's got that on, because James something tells me
this is a bad man right here. Well maybe, well not yet.
We got a little bit of time. Rash doesn't even make it to the
ring before Kanan Rakishia start brawling on the ramp here. Yeah, okay,
I was was that just a like, does Kaana Rakishi have a back story
here that would call for Kane to attack him on the ramp? Yeah?
Crazy heat right now weight heat ye? So Kate answer Keisi with the ring
bell on the outside. Match still has not started yet. Um Rakishi tries
to make Kane drop into the corner seat of position two times in a row.
Came fucking refuse it and then it rolls out of the ring like an
asshole. He's of shit idiots, fucking absolutely refused to do the drop down,
like you even see Rakishi like wants to do the turn back for it,
and he fucking won't. The people want a stink face, you big
red idiot. They wants ass in your mouth now hitting the wrong buttons to
do the sit down. Yeah you're right, no diaper, no sunglasses.
Fuck it just fucked up, man, So Kane five faces. The ref
ref is Teddy Law by the way, reff calls for the bell. Rakishi
then hits Kane with a chair and then they ring the bell and then came
because they fucking used it, So it was like lost. Oh yeah,
all right, Rakishi rolls in and he tells Kane to bring his big red
ass in here and fucking go to corner, seat a position and let me
do my second. You pizza shit das get in. They start swinging on
the fuck each other. The ref's all run down. Everything was super heated
on this show, like everything is super heated. When when Rakishi was trying
to bump him in the corner earlier, By the Way Jr. On commentary,
he said, Rikishi buried dose cheeks deep into the affim of the something
he does. Yeah, I forget where it was. He does say that
though. Um Rakishi then knocks came to the outside and that ends the segment.
So I was a little surprised at how that ended because Rakishi bumps came
over the top and Kane's just like all right and leaves. He doesn't like
try to get back in. Nobody stops him. He just people actually have
to hold back Rakishi and not came. Yeah, that's how it goes at
the end of video games when you break out and throws them up right.
Yeah, So Rakishi, I wonder, uh, you know, I wonder,
I wonder how that went, Like Rakishi, hey man, you're gonna
hit stone call with the car. We're just say it was you. Oh
he did it. He did it for the rock damn it right, for
the people he did How crazy is that? Like, just looking back on
it, like like you're going to be the guy to take out. Yeah.
I can't even remember my reaction as a kid to this, Like I
can't even remember what I thought about this, but like I definitely probably didn't
think Rakishi was the one that hit Steve Auston with the car. I definitely
didn't think it was Rakishi, And I feel like when it was revealed,
I was confused more than intrigued. Yeah, I feel like it was so
like obviously they went for something that was like let's try to make somebody and
like take somebody like from left field, because I'm sure at that point,
like a lot of people were like, oh, it's got to be like
Triple H or Chris Jericho or you know, it's just something somebody that's kind
of getting up in the car there, um being Rakishi. Was there anyone
else that it was going to be. I feel like I don't really remember
ever hearing anybody else. Um, Yeah, I don't. I don't know
the names, but I assumed that people that they slotted were Undertaker, triple
Age, whoever is in the main event Shore, you know what I mean,
anybody that was in that main event, fucking five or six guys was
definitely on the list. I'm sure I actually just found one here. Brian
Gowartz said that at one point it was a lot of people and it kept
switching. It was kind of hot potato. I remember at one point Vince
Man looked at me and was just like Tazo. Taz was going to be
the one that hit Stone cold with the car, and then next week,
for whatever reason, it was someone different. He wouldn't call it, he
says, I wouldn't necessarily call it a success. Rakish's a Hall of Fame
performer, but he's just likable on natural baby face. People want to like
him. Sometimes you just don't know until you try. Yeah, sure,
you started wearing that little little leather jacket joint was it was a fat Yeah.
How do you think? I can't even imagine in my brain it being
Tazz? I mean either he's because he's already in the jumpsuit. You imagine
seeing Tazz fighting fucking like the rock and you know what I mean, like
in the ring, like crazy stuff like that, like regular too, like
Steve Austin and Tazz, like Dude Jr. Would have been commentary a whole
times. Look at this small little bastard. Undertaker would have gave him nothing.
Yeah, they would have this shit out of him. Jays would have
fell off the Hell and the Celtic. He would have take a crazy bump.
His neck was already fucked at that time. Yeah, yeah that's true.
Yeah that's true. Yeah, he was ready for commentary. He just
got here. I got some big plans for you to talk to you,
brother, So we got to edging. Christian Uh and the Hardy Boys are
in a ladder match little graphic tonight. Yes, um, we get an
ex pocket Chris Jerker first Blood match Graphic tonight. But yeah, for sure
we gotta blow that one off. Stuck. When he got backstage, Steve
Ossen is walking. He goes straight into a locker room and would you look
at that Undertakers they're putting on his boots. Yeah, he's He's sitting there
and Taker says, man, don't even don't even come in here. Give
me look at that. You know I wasn't there, you know, I
was taking some time off. But I'll tell you something, find some information.
I'd give it to you because if they run you over the so ob
he's still out there, he'd run me over, you know, Austin,
it's kind of a shame. Is it a shame about what? What?
Someday? Me and you we're gonna have to go. We gotta go where
that's what all says. Well, I don't know. Is that a damn
shame? Now I think about it, Maybe it's not. This was since
right on the fucking floor, guy like me love this segment. I thought
this is so lit. I love it, like Taker like they've kind of
planned the seats here, and it was like it was super for the next
match. Yeah, and it was super like Taker like. It felt like
a like a Taker moment for for some reason, to me, this is
like the most Taker moment ever. It's a damn shame, Auston, damn
shame. And you're gonna have to kick each other's ass. Yeah, let
me get that. Yeah two thousand dollars like, yeah, let me get
that. Let me get that. Hey, don't get the twisted though.
This is not mean Taker loses any strikes. That's not how this works.
Yeah, no strikes take it away. That's probably sucked to anyway, it
would have been trash. Yeah, so you have backstage. Mick Foley is
in his office, commissioner office, which is in the bathroom. Is what
is he sitting on because he's not sitting on a toilet a little brad or
something. Yeah, so he's sitting there. He's got a bunch of shits
set up there. There's a dog toy sitting on the toilet reading a newspaper
and Edgin Christian come in and Edge says, hey, man, no,
we were in a grueling cage match last night. A reward is as a
ladder match, and Chris says, yeah, thanks, thanks to the Max.
All right, Mick says, you're welcome. Chris says Mick, I
was being sarcastic, and Mick says, listen our first time on TNN.
I need a historic match. What better match to have my two top stars
Edgine Christian against the rivals, the Hardies. Mick says, oh, by
the way, this is your last time I shot against the Hardies and Chrisson,
what the fuck it's gonna be the Christian It's gonna be the shortest rain
for the Hardies. And Mick says, you know, I guess you'll need
this then, and he picked up a little umbrella and he said, get
it shortest, you know, because the shortest rain the little umbrella. Get
it right in the bathroom. His heads getting it in the toilet. Real
it says, that's not funny, you're a recassolt. And then some lady
comes out of this all and says, I thought it was funny. Mister
Foldy was taking a big as shit in there. Yeah, she paid him
to pay for the ship. Yeah, commissioner's office. I was sorry she
took it. It's even crazier that she took a ship in the commissioner's office.
He asked you to do that. It's calling on here. So now
we have Bubba Ray Dudley versus Tazz. Holy shit, t it looks like
a bad man. I'm a ba man. So last night I'll heat the
Duddies and the acolytes were hanging out and they did a parody. Oh you
know, if you want to call it a parody, they just did.
The Budweiser was up commercial, yeah, straight up, And the Budweiser was
up guy was delivering Budweiser. Douay yeah, guy, that's crazy. I
could believe it. This was so lit. Yeah, everyone in the room.
Uh, they do a real close up on everybody has the guy brings
in the Budweisers and fucking they fucking get right up on them. They do.
Bradshaw Badshaw says, why that Fruke says it too. Bradshaw put his
whole ass into a Fruke was just like kind of committed to it because he
had two Bradshaws down. Yeah, that is so fucking awesome. Yeah,
that's so cool, man, Yo, do gay You have to explain that
there's probably nobody. There might be people who don't know even like you,
like the guys there, and they're like what guy, what? Alright?
So people have no idea what you're talking about. Yeah, so there was
there was a Budweiser commercial that was super popular, so popular in fact that
it's still somehow exist us in today's zigeys. Scary movie was, Yeah,
scary movie parody. If you guys have ever seen that where they have ghost
face killer calling them and they say, why's that he does? The mass
thing? That was a parody of this. I don't even know if people
that saw that movie knew that it was a parody of the Budweiser commercial.
Yeah, you're right. Yeah, anybody that knows What's Up knows it from
scary movie bro. Yeah. Yeah, So Budweiser had a commercial back then
where it was a guy calling. It was basically just boy's night out.
So it was this was way back like they had landline phones and everything,
and he caught up his buddy and he was like, what are you,
hey, what are you up to? He said, watching the game,
drinking a bud. He says, I always say, he says. His
roommate walks in and he says, yo, pick up the phone, and
he picks up the phone. He says, why's that. He says,
you know, watching the game. He goes, yo, doukay, pick
up the phone. He's up stairs. He picks up the phone. Hello,
why's that? So that's like you live in a roommates and everyone picks
up the focus says what's up, and he says he's watching the game drinking
a butt. At the end of the commercial, everybody, yeah, dude,
Yeah, it's funny as fun dude. The was Up thing took over
the world for a minute, like it was genuinely it was probably one of
the better marketing things I've ever seen period. That ship was so good.
He says, what is Yeah, so what are you gonna do? He
said, I'm watching a game drinking a butt. True. True, True
is my favorite thing you up to? True? Yeah, in this gay
movie. One one of my favorite things they ever do. I still say
it to this day. Literally, I still say it all the time.
Is chilling killing yea king? Yeah, that's so funny. So they panted
this and if people didn't know, that's where the Dubi boys got the ones
up thing from. In general that they they end up keeping this for the
rest of their career legit um, which is pretty crazy to see. So
like seeing them do this on heat and then also seeing the acolytes also do
thing. If you guys haven't seening Rush, you gotta check it out.
It's fucking awesome. Then you got check out the scary movie parody, which
is also awesome. I wonder how soon the scary move ones unbelievable. I
wonder how soon after this they start doing it as the move. It has
to be probably pretty soon. It's got to be pretty soon. Yeah,
that's awesome. I want to know someone to find that if when the first
time the debut was Yeah, I think they were already doing the move,
but I don't think they were doing it, wasn't right, I think so
too, Yeah, I think so Okay, Yeah, it's awesome, chilly
killing. True. So Task comes out in the boiler Room jump suit and
I say, god, fucking damn it, it's already September of two thousand
and he's already in the suit. You know, he debuted in January of
the same year, Right, isn't that crazy? Yeah? That is unbelievable.
Man, they've already got that because I think Vince said, well,
you you look like a freak. Yeah, your legs are too big?
Right? Yeah? Which crazy? Why would you com that? Shit?
Different beauty standards back in the bods are super in now hell yeah. But
Taz comes out in the boiler Room jumps suit and I just fucking I didn't
even care at this point. But this was this was supposed to be a
tag team match, by the way, but right, because the Duli boys
come out and they come out as a tag team, so they were like
preparing for a tag team match. But Taz calls out Bubba and says that
he's scared to fight them alone. I okay, I thought it was the
singles that Taz just said, hey, get your boy out of here.
You can't fight on your own. Okay, Well, I mean they came
out like usually if they did come right, Yeah, I think you're right.
Yeah, yeah, because even if it's the singles that usually they'll come
out and they they'll say, like Bubba Ray with Devons. Oh did it
say? Dudley's on the said okay, well then absolutely, but Devon leaves.
He just fucking leaves, he said. Okay, okay, this is
even sillier. Okay, So Taz is feuding with Lawler here right, Uh,
this is getting ready to get on commentary because this point Lawler as Tad's
coming out, says our inaugurals show on CNN, and we have to include
this low life jerk. I think at unforgiven, Taz beats Lawlor uh by
Raven interference. I think Raven debut unforgiven by helping we're just getting Raven into
the WWF at this point. Yes, so the Dudleys surely know this that
Taz has helped to help him win just at this pay per view. Yeah,
still say ya know what, fuck you, we're leaving. They're boys,
you know what I mean? That's like, you know what I mean?
Like, why the fun would he know? Why would Raven interfer?
We're yeah, we're boys. So they can't trust tas Look at his jumpsuit,
man, look at this guy. He's on the same guy. Can't
fucking trust Raven. But yeah, so we'll get into this match up here,
super quick match, nothing to it, really, no do their usual
ship Yeah, roth bomp explorer. Tasplex goes ring side throws water in Jerry
Lawler's face. You stupid bastard. Lawler then gets up to approach Taz.
But I'll be a son of a bitch. Raven's here, Scott, even
Barty is here, this Raven DDT's Lawler right on the floor. Bubba hits
the Bubba bomb on Taz. Then Raven gets in hits Bubba with the DDT,
then points it Taz and Taz covers Bubba. The ref is bumped by
the way. The ref got bumped off an Irish whip like I think TAZs
whipped Bubba in the corner and the ref was in the way he bumped them.
Ref gets up uh and Taz gets to win because he needs help because
he's a little baby man. He can't win on his own, a fucking
bitch, and he can't. At one point during this match, by the
way, Bubba sets up Tazz and just stands her and looks out of the
crowd and yells power bomb. Yeah, and then he does it. I
feel like that's so rarely happened, where somebody yells a move and they actually
hit it. Yeah, you're right, that is an anomaly. Well,
Devon comes out and TAZs and Raven powder by the way, Devon a little
too late though a little Yeah you saw Raven right like you saw Jerry Law
and get sucked up. Well, he's back there at the phone because the
table. I'm surprised they didn't that table. Oh my god, that should
have been a shirt at least. So backstage, Triple H's with Stephanie uh,
and Triple H is asking her what's wrong. She's got a little pouty
face on, and well, Steph says that, you know, Kurt saying
happy birthday to her and Trip, but you didn't even get me a present.
Yeah, you give me a fucking present, And Trouble says listen,
I've gone over this a million times. I didn't forget your present, sitting
at home, gift wrapped, it's waiting for you. I didn't forget,
you know. I was really hoping that he would have done. This is
one of my favorite, like gas lighting men things to respond to, and
it would have made for a very funny moment if she said you didn't even
give me a present, and I was really hoping it was like, well,
your presents right here. I'm gonna give you the best sex of your
life. And then the girl goes, god, he's not getting walked out
of the room like, and the dude's like, what what? Why were
you so as? Yeah, my thought isn't like good enough for this?
And then I want to play like the Seinfeld music anything cut to the outside
of the arena, and then felt, yeah, well that fucking shit sucks.
Raven and Tas and the Dudley's were juster, man, come on,
oh yeah, you're right, you're right. Well Stephanie was. She was
pissed that Triple H gave her a rough kiss after his match with Kurt Angle
instead of what you would say a romantic kiss. It wasn't very romantic.
At all, and Triple H says, well, that kiss was for Kurt,
not for Angle. I wanted to kiss Curt. It wasn't aimed at
you as a proven point to Kurt that you're mine. And it was an
exclamation point on the end of an ass kicking that I gave Kurt Angle last
night. And why did I kick his ass? I did that for you?
And my my present is my cock what I thought you were? Oh,
here he goes. So Jerry Lawler is at commentary. He's complaining about
getting his ass kicked by Raven, wiping water off of himself, and now
it's time for Edging Christian versus the Hardy Boys ladder match for the tag titles.
By the way, these dudes just did a cage match, by the
way, just did a case, literally just did one. This one's sweet.
This is a fun match. I feel like this one's forgotten. I
don't remember this, Tony, because there's some shit here that happens that they
do that gets praised way crazier than it doesn't. Yeah, well more people
watching WrestleMania. Nobody knew what TNN was. TNN's ratings weren't popping. I
don't know, No they were not. They were popping crazy and Nashville.
So these four guys had a cage match on pay per view, yes,
travel promos, ladder match travel right, and they beat the shit out of
each other in both of these matches, Like there was no like dialing it
into these matches. Oh wait, they mightn't even harder here than they did
in the cage match. Yeah. I definitely feel like my favorite shit is
watching these guys early on, like through these TLC matches and through these ladder
matches, and you can definitely see them with a chip on their shoulder,
like you can see that they're trying to get themselves. Yeah, constantly if
you're like, yeah, there's no way, Like they're like, we're gonna
have you guys do a fucking cage match and then a ladder match the next
night, and then like they both have to be like pretty, they have
to be awesome, and they go, all right, well we'll figure it
out. Yeah, we're gonna have you to do a ladder match middle of
the show. All right, we will, I'll be sweeten. The thing
that everyone comes out of the show liking, so Edge and Christian makes their
entrance for us, they get in the ring and they set up the ladder
and try to win abyss style. We just will talk about it. We
just watch or someone trying to do this. You're right the whole of the
show. Yeah, man, and the Hardy's music hits, they run down.
They don't even do their taunts. They run out of the stop of
them climbing. I was like, oh my god, that is so sick.
Um. Yeah, and there's some really cool stuff in here, so
like yeah, Edgine Christian literally put Jeff Hardy in a ladder like inside like
a sandwich, and they put him vertically in the corner, which is crazy.
By the way, they were able to have worked this out. Yeah,
the ladders upside down, but Jeff is upright right, He's up.
Yeah, this is crazy. And they hit poetry emotion on him. That
is fucking awesome. That Hardy's also, uh, they like open the ladder
like they spread the part on its side and slamming into Edge Christian's balls and
then drop kicking, and I was like, oh, Jo, that's awesome.
Jeff at one point climbed up the ladder. I think as Edge Christians
started to get offense on like Matt, they throw Matt into the ladder and
it falls, Jeff falls off, and then the ladder falls on top of
Jeff. It was fucking brutal. Yeah. They're all taped up from from
this match they had last night. Yeah, they're all crazy fucked up,
like Edge and Christian were like limping to the ring like shoot, yeah,
we of course get our presto double Features of the Night though, come on,
guys, Features of the Night. Yeah, that's pretty funny that they
had sponsors for the in between shot. That's awesome. Matt Hardy has broken
out the very large ladder now, and you know it is large because commentary
says, wow, look at that big ladder. They throw it at Edge
of Christian, who are on top of a ladder already. They just deck
them with it. Very cool stuff. Here. Matt climbs does his time,
Edge knocks him off. Jeff has his hands on the belt here,
and you might remember this from a certain other match that they have, but
this is the precursor to that. Jeff has his hands on the belt.
Christian moves the ladder. Jeff is now hanging from the two belts. Edges
on the other ladder spears Jeff Hardy in mid air off. It's the same
spot, it's the same spot. It's unbelievable. And I don't even know
if this is the first time they do it. I think they might have
done it in the No Mercy match. Oh really Okay, so like it,
but it's so crazy how many, Like they've definitely done it more than
once already, so like they do it at least twice before Mania U seventeen
and the Mania seventeen one is just so crazy for some reason. I don't
know if it was higher or what it was. It was the stakes,
the moment the crowd was Yeah, it's just it might have been higher.
I feel like that belt was higher. The latter he jumped off was higher
too, I think, Tony, the crowd is fucking nuts here, by
the way, the holy shit, it's awesome. It's this crowd is fun.
This guy is fucking dead all fucking night and this matches. They're lit,
like they're ready for this type of shit. You know, this is
a two thousand two um. Leda comes in with a chair to help,
but Christian hits the reverse DDT Honor. It's no fucking regard, doesn't even
think about it. Twice Yeah, like she just gets fucking destroyed the boys.
Matt Hardy then hits a belly to back soup plex on Christian off the
ladder, and I'll tell you, man, like that could have been like
catastrophically wrong. It's insane. They are so close to the ropes. I
legit, had to watch it a few times. I swear Christians had hit
the bottom rope, but from hard camerad yeah, and the way they pointed
it, it looked like you did. But he ends up missing the ropes
and these were like WCW steel cables and here's that he would have died.
Yeah, I mean even doing that spot on like that, like it's pretty
much on the apron practically, that had to hurt like a fucking motherfucker man.
Yeah, absolutely, it would have been game over. Um. Edge
then hits a cutter to Matt Hardy off the ladder. Diamond cutter, like
straight up, straight up, Edge climbs and grabs the belts, but Matt
Hardy then power bombs him off the ladder, just stuffs his ass. I
mean this is all in the same exact spot, by the way, So
the backsup plex, the diamond cutter, the power bomb are all in the
same position on the ladder. They just yeah, they just keep moving out
of the way and then time for the next one right here. They never
thought like, maybe should push the ladder in a little bit more anything.
They're like, we're just taking as fucking hard as we can around the apron
there. He could have killed Edge in the same fucking thing. His head
could have hit the ropes and ship. And that's the kind of fucking heat
that I like. You see. So edging Christians set up ladders beside Matt
Hardy asked, he's climbing this middle ladder. Yes, and they have chairs
in their hand, and they were going to concert Matt Hardy in the middle
of climbing the ladder. Yeah, all three on the ladder. They were
going to concert to him. Is so fucking funny. I was very excited
to see it. Yeah, me too. I need to see that ship.
The concert the ladders is fucking lit. It might have happened, it
might have been a callback. No, I want I want someone to do
it like fucking crazy. Yeah, like at the very top and they take
a bump fucking smack off the ship, like you really want to make a
wrestling moment, like that's a moment. Want all three standing on the top.
Yeah yeah, yeah, Like he gets to like to the point where
he's like at the top wrong, Yeah, and just oh my god,
where do you go where? That's for them to figure out. I'm not
They're right. You're knocking these dudes over dying. If you go backwards,
your tables behind him. Oh, the tables would be a good safe Yeah,
yeah, the tables would be You should be able to do that in
the video game. Okay, really not realistically, it's not fucking happening,
But in a video game, being able to concare it to somebody fucking be
s style off the ladders should definitely be an option. Dude. Video games
haven't even figured out how to let you climb to the top rope with a
weapon yet. Ladder matches suck in video games historically. Yeah, they're they're
not good. They're not good. What about that one that you played,
which one the Fight for Everyone? No, the three hour one? Oh
oh yeah, that was fucking horrible. It's fucking horrible. A twenty ten
Yeah, that was a miserable. Man, it would have been way better
if you can share it to somebody. That game off the ladder. I
just want to make sure every understands that it would have been James, but
the AI wouldn't have done it, so that's true. Yeah, they would
have just kept knocking the ladder over and super teleporting to the top of the
ladder finishers, so fucking fucked up man. Wow, Yeah, I'm just
thinking about that. Like, yeah, at the top of the ladder can
share to you just a lot of balance to eat free fall from twenty feet
in the what game I think it was the day reckoning games where if you
get bumped off the ladder, you legit went head first down to the matter.
That's that's what this would have been. Yeah, Like Jeff definitely would
have done it, Like if they would have if they would have pitched it,
Yeah, if they would have called it, Jef would be like,
yeah, all right, I'll tell you whatever whatever. Yeah, it'd be
good. Like and he ended up he probably wouldn't get hurt. He wouldn't
have gott hurt, and you went fine. Jeff has historically always just been
fine. I don't know how it's just fine. Maybe not, I don't
know. Yeah, I mean time might tell you otherwise, but has been
all right from the bombs. Well, yeah, in the rain, um
so Leader and plow down that already grabs the titles and they win the match.
Huge pop wi fucking pop. This is fucking gas. This is awesome,
man, Yeah, awesome match, great bombs, great finish. Well,
the only thing I'm interested in is Leader's red underwear. What dude,
Holy shit, these guys are sucking. They come fresh on the cage match
with Ladder, match with Traveler with furs. They fucking just killed each other.
They almost didn't a share it to the first thing they do when they
gred the lives across going nuts is oh my god, it well, it's
wrong with the other general looking at him like brow did. Jared probably looked
at him crazy right to the stewet Griffin head. I mean the boys.
Lawler definitely got browbeat during the commercial. What the fuck is wrong? Every
wife? You keep doing this? This is crazy because Edge Christian cannot choge
for those belts no more. Yeah, ever are getting in their entire life
as long as the Hardies are champions. That's like doing a stipulation like that
and then having them actually lose and have them not chouts for the belts.
Made for a way cooler moment like the otherwise, you know, like going
through with it was what's cool? Do they do? Is that where the
fucking confused the door thing happens? Oh shit, I don't know, is
that I'm trying to see when okay Hardy, Yeah, let's see Hardies was
septemes they want to unforgiven. Then edgin Christian went him back at no mercy
because they wrestled as Les could. And then the Hearties win them back as
that that's unbelievable, and then rent the sensor them. So backstage segment,
Gerald and Pat are backstage being interrogated by Stone Steve Boston. They're both sitting
there. It's like as they were then they were bullied into this room to
sit next to each other and being accused of hitting Stone cold with a car.
Yeah, Joe says he was home in Florida with one hundred and two
degree fever. That says, three, you were home, I was home
aniversary. He said he was in Florida as well. Yeah, that's crazy,
man. Steve Alston doesn't buy the ship for a minute. Ye don't
remember how to go home from an anniversary. You were there in Detroit and
I says, Ah, you guys, shut up. You're making me sick.
I know you're lying because people told me you were there. Shut up.
I know neither one of you did it. You know how, I
know neither one of you have a sack enough to run over stone gold screen.
You don't at the balls enough to me with a car. But if
I find out you know who ran me over, I will track both of
you down and I'll stop a squealing worm out of your ass. Do you
understand me? No, sir, I don't. We don't understand worm.
The squealing worm doesn't catch you should have kept doing it, a squealing worm.
And he leaves, and Briscoe and Patterson are are you going? After
he leaves and pet says you you're sick. He smokes too much? Okay,
they're like what they say? So China's walking, she's talking. Jr.
Says there's China. Nothing can be finer. Then we get Nick Foley
voting propaganda. Oh yeah, new new voters have to let their voices be
heard, James, And we haven't heard from George Bush or al Gore.
Try to convince George Bush and al Gore to come to smack down to talk
to the future of our country by insulting down. Get out here, now
come to SmackDown. Yeah, Al Gore is too busy inventing the internet.
Smack down your vote, jackass shit. So now it's time for the Chinatown
Hall China Playboy segment where she's here to reveal her Playboy Yeah, she was
in Playboy buttass naked midion Stye Lawa says, Oh, I can't stand up
right now. I'm a fat shut up, sit down to sleep, give
us all a break. Well. For the first time in WWF history,
they decided they're gonna let China get her flowers. They said, here's your
time, here's your time to get your flowers, because we have fucking treated
you like shit, but your all fucking career. Uh, and now it's
not to give you some flowers here. And it definitely feels like something someone
would say, like a Hall of Famous speech. Yeah, Like it was
almost like she knew her career was winding down here, dude. Okay,
I got that same feeling too, And I was like, she gone soon,
but she's not right, She's around for another year, gets her neck
broken. Yeah, they do that fucking stupid ass angle with Ivory, wasn't
it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly, Yeah, yeah, sit
her down with it, JR. We talked about that. Yeah, and
they do that whole fucking like, uh yeah, it's brutal, um,
but yeah, like great way to put a James like giving her flowers because
she you know, she first part of this problem was she's talking about like
magazines and tabloids talking about how other women looked compared to her, and it
was kind of long. I was like, I don't know where this is
going. Then she gets into the part like you know, she's getting kind
of emotional about it, talking about how long she's worked on her career and
making her body look how it does, and she's, uh, you know,
she's been ridiculed, ridicule its me for years and pissed her off.
So she was working at the gym and uh, she felt she reached a
lot of success and she's gone far beyond what people have said about her.
And she's worked away to the top of a male dominated business, fought men
in the rank, gained respect of men and women back there, and she's
fought the odds and and she believes she's you know, she is a pioneer
and that's why her friends named her the ninth Wonder of the World. She
kind of starts getting emotional. Yeah, and by the way, also,
Ben Stiller is on the cover of the Playboy. That's why everybody understand that
Ben Stiller is I forgot about that. I feel like I was on that
Playboy. We actually saw that in Japan. That was crazy. Did in
Japan? I feel it right. I wanted you to buy I wanted somebody
to buy that. Yeah, I was looking for you had it? Then
we didn't buy it. Yeah, we didn't buy it. I went back
it was gone. I was like, where's the boy? Yeah? I
was gonna buy it, but I ended up not being able to. Sadly,
but yeah, got a portion of this fucking promo's emotional stuff. It's
it's it gives her a ton of time to talk about. I feel like
it did feel like a career ending, like it was like a heartfelt like,
dude, all right, my my long road to get where I did
and this is it or whatever. Yeah, I should have been pretty rough.
Since Triple As got with Stephanie, I imagine they got even worse.
Oh my god, she said, I would like, thank w F for
giving the freak an opportunity. I'd like to thank the guys in the back
because you guys have sported me all through the special times of my life.
And I like to thank the fans for wanting to see me naked. I
said, no, man, come on, by the way, I just
want to I just want to mention China thanks the WWF for giving this freak
a chance. And the way she said it seemed like she did not want
to say that. It seemed like she was like saying it because she was
asked to thank the w F or she thought she needed to for the segment.
She had to because her I mean, her tone and the way she
said it, Like obviously, I mean, come on, the w F
was not nice to her. I mean, like, oh man, they
were pretty brutal to her. It's a shame that this promo led to the
fucking the rest of this segment. I will say this much too. A
lot of empty seats behind China here. You might want to start figuring out
out rang wrong. We'll be done, and not just on TNN, So
you better watch your ass nights coming, especially you start doing this bullshit right
to sensory music. And these dudes val Venus. He's here, Stephen Richards,
val Venus the good Father, and Bull Buchanan baseball mechanic. Come on,
what do you do wrong? No one even gave Valvinus the Black Slacks
memo. Dudes out here in the white ones because no one talks about Venus
because he's an idiot, out of our company. Val Venus says that this
ship is like pornography. Get out of here, boycott this magazine. He
says, China's not even worth seeing naked. Oh, come on, that's
ridiculous. And then China he eat music hits and that's where the ship starts
picking up. Dude Eddie comes out. He's over his fucking hell here,
He says, did I hear you correctly? I say, you say China's
not worth it. You're talking about the hottest, sweetest, sexiest looking at
Bobasita blay Boy naked, and you say she's not worth it? What are
you stupid? This is this is bar none my favorite Eddie era. This
is like my favorite Eddie era ever. He's so good on the mic,
he super unique, look like his matches were fantastic. I'm so fucking pissed
that he had that stupid injury when he came to Wie. That sucks.
He lost off so much time there, but like, yeah, this is
this is he was so good. Like everything he says here, it's so
it's so crazy going from fucking Valvenus talking to Eddie. It's like, Eddie's
so much better. Yeah, he was ready for the big push the fucking
second he got there, you know what I mean. And Latino heat Era
with the with the hair and that just everything is Roses China. Yeah,
this is awesome, very good stuff. Was a great weapon in the games
too, by the way that Eddie roses. Yeah. Yeah. Uh so
Eddie says, uh, you know, China, I'm gonna do you an
honor to night, and I'm gonna defend your honor if you let me.
I'll put the interconal title on the line against one of these stupid homies if
they got that. I think he would say, pantaloons. I don't know
what he's said. Oh yeah, I don't know. He's put the title
on allow to find your honor agains one of these homies. I got the
oddest, says mama, look at this, Look at this, mamah,
Oh shit, that's not so good at that gimmick that I swear as a
kid, I was like, oh, they're dating for real. Yeah,
they are definitely fucking because they had such good chemistry. Yeah no, I
mean ed he's one of the best ever. I mean he was really um.
Stephen Richards does say in the background that Valvenus does accept this challenge.
Mister Venus is happy to accept your invitation. They change his name to Sean
Morley, don't they. That's okay, So that's after Right to Censor.
That's when he's Eric Bischoff's assistant. Oh right, yeah, you're what the
fuck They didn't change his name from val Venus and the Right to censor the
good Father. But this guy's name is big Enus. Dude. I also
don't think they changed just finish her name too. I think it's still the
money money shot at all, no shot, oh man. But yeah,
then they of course he accepts the challenge, and then China tells Right to
Censor that whenever you pick up my playboys see my as you can kids.
Ye all yeah, hell yeah. So we got backstage, Kurdangles looking at
the sports pages talking about the guys he could beat in the Olympics. I
could beat him. I beat him, I could beat him. Tris Stratus
comes up and talks to him about, of course, his feud with Triple
Age. Currently yeah, she says, I hey, Kurt, you see
China and Playboy And Kurt says, oh, I don't read. Playboy says,
well, what Stone Cold did when you offered him a friendship was disgusting,
and if you offered me a token of friendship, I chaished it forever.
Kurt says, cool, oblivious Kurt angle with the women's like, I
love that. Yeah. Steve Blackman does it later on with Trisha. I
thought that was cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's awesome. Trish
says, do you have that medal? And Chris says, yeah, having
in my bag. I always carry these with me, you know. Tris
says, you mind if I tried it on? And she tries it on
and the metal disappears in her cleavage, which is pretty cool. It is
fucking insane. They do a really up close, tight shot on a crazy
replica here, very very small metal here for Steve Auston that he had.
I thought it was a very big metal, very good get you. It
was very sad at the team. Well it zooms in it. Kurt's eyes
almost bulge of his head, and he says, she says this good write,
and Kurt's says, oh, it's true. It's true, and true.
That's true, true, true. Well. Raw is brought to you
by Squaresoft, which has a new game coming out called Pirsite eve two.
Do you have any idea what this game is? I'm gonna assume it's a
import from Japan. I was correct. Yeah, actually role playing survival horror
video game released for the PlayStation and was published in Japan in nineteen ninety nine.
And ship Gas probably not ratings kind of like from the cover and all
that show I'm looking at like some reside Evil type shit, So Sila Hill
or something like that. You don't sure it might be gas. I don't
know. Yeah, I hope it's uh like eight hours or less. That'd
be awesome. No, it's sixteen. Just look at you look up a
long play. Well, I found a long play that's twelve hours. Eleven
and a half. Yeah, eleven and a half's usually how long. So
that's not bad. I'll take eleven and a half game. I'll take a
game that could be on the weekend, you know. Yeah, two sessions.
I'll take that. Yeah, that's easy, you know, that's what
I'm talking about. That's not real shit that I love that. I love
like beating games on the weekend, like if you if you can, if
it's twenty plus, I hesitate, I'll be honest, I hesitate. Yeah
yeah, man, if I got to retain that information for three sessions?
Who all right? Yeah, you're asking a lot. Man, Look I
already played everything you got like at this point, I'm just like jerking me
off now man, Yeah, come on, man, I'm ready to go.
I'm ready to bloom. So Raws also brought to you by Right Guard
Extreme Sport. You stinky sink, stinky idiot, look at you idiots.
Is brought to you by WWF Shop Zone, where you can get all the
best WWF apparel. They ran out of sponsors, couldn't get another sponsor there
had thrown up there. Yeah that's based. What about Presto? Where the
fuck Presto is sponsored? To the pay per view? I didn't pay enough
and it's just damn all right whatever. So now we have the first blood
match between Chris Jericho and XPOC. What the fuck is this XPOC logo on
his gear. First off, let me just say this Jericho with the girls
drawn yet, sir, legendary hall of fame with the music also x podcast
that's okay, yeah, thank you Tony that I'm talking about, right,
okay, alright, no, well you're close, but it's fine. You
think it's not x pox. I don't know what it is, man.
I feel like Xbox is, uh yeah, well Xbox is just you know,
you wanted to be there. Yeah, you look like this is a
this is a lost gear. This, this doesn't make it into any games.
I don't think. I'm not surprised by that. Yeah, um,
I actually you know what, you know, that's my favorite match of the
night. I'm not even kidding. I like this match. And I also
enjoyed xpos antics during this match, and I don't know how much does okay
you did? It's okay good? Yeah? Yeah, you know, yeah,
like this was this was like I for a second, I would doly
thought they were like Kicky Joe's as to me too. So I actually enjoyed
some a lot. I mean, favorite mention of the night over the ladder
is a low egregious, but I did enjoy this match a lot. What
it was yes for what it was, especially for a match that was fucking
two minutes long. Once again, you can't have a good match it too.
You can't have a good match at eight, you can't have a good
match of fifteen, you can't have a good matchic There's a lot that happens
here. Yeah, in two minutes, which is crazy. Um. So
Jeriker rushes the ramp and attacks x POC before he could even make his fucking
entrance. Yeah, Xbox not even out of the curtain yet, and Jericho's
at the top of the rim to jump up. Um. Jericho then lights
up x POC with some gnarly chops manning, spinning heel kick. Jericho's unreal
at this point, Like Jericho's work great at this point, is absolutely unmatched,
especially at this middle of the card spot he's in right now. Unfucking
match work looks good too, looks great. Yeah, it looks fantastic,
Girl Tron, what can you what more freaking over this guy? Bitch,
bitch bitch Yeah. Um There's a bit where Xpod gets cloths lined over the
top to the floor, so Jericho closlines them to the floor. X Pock
is on the floor. This is where I figured out what the finish of
the match was. He's near the timekeepers area and there's a bottle on the
floor and he's like he like pushes into the side and he yells something.
I said, Oh, that's kind of weird. He's acting like kind of
strange in there. He gets back in the ring, so he tries to
hit Jerko with a chair on the floor. Jeriko dodges it, hews the
fucking He's pissed. He's pissed. They go into the ring. Xpot glombs
Jericho in the ring, looks at the timekeepers area and yells fuck. I
was like down on the floor, yells fuck in the ring. I said,
what what happened here? I'm like trying to find out. Xbox keeps
looking back at the timekeepers area. I said, does he have heat with
like Mark Heaton the fucking stone cold throwing the beer? Guys? What happened?
Dear? Why is he so fucking mad? I don't know he would
be here, man, he said this shittle man, Nitro, you'll want
to go there. You're right, You're right. Jericho gets hung up on
the barricade. He's like lying over in Xbox spin kicks him in the As
they get back over in the barricade, Jericho does a bulldog onto the stairs
where he like runs by. Jericho then does like X games off the stairs
that onto it, which was awesome. It was awesome. Jericho swings a
chair at Xbox head full force, and I mean, like legit. They're
like if they don't duck, you're gonna die, Like yeah, like this
is crazy. The amount of heat in this two minute match is nuts,
Like yeah, Xbox ducks thankfully hits the ring post. Then Xbox goes underneath
the timekeeper's table and he picks up what seems to be either two bottles,
two glass bottles or one glass bottle that was broken in half, which maybe
why he was angry earlier. He picks up, he's a pile of bottles
in his hand, Jericho, and the fucking face, that's what happens earlier,
Like you find he went to the outside or like grab the chair or
whatever, and then the bottle was probably in the chair and something that fell
off and broke. Goddamn it just has a broken He just gas grabs with
a broken glass gloves. Fuck, that's right. He smashes Jericho with a
ship. They go into the ring, and I don't know if Jericho is
bleeding, So Xbo starts grinding broken glass jo the he starts bleeding in the
ref calls for the belt. Though, Yeah, that's definitely what happened.
You know, I was thinking about like when he said, god damn with
the floor, I saw the green bottle behind him. Yeah, I didn't
even think for a second, and you know, probably might not. It
wasn't this, but she definitely struggled with the chair for a second and then
took a second and looked at the ground and then like went to the floor.
And I was like, goddamn, all right, say, yeah,
what's worse that one or him going him being the center of the ring staring
at time. Ye, I'm sorry he got fucking ass blasted backstays as he
was probably so checked out it didn't even matter. No, yeah you want
to go at night, I'll tell you right now, buddy. They didn't
know he didn't. So yeah, he cracks the bottle, fucking grinds him
down, he bleeds, the ref calls for the belt. XPOC wins the
match, so I'm assuming they just needed XPOC to like win the feud,
but they wanted Jericho to keep the heat. Sure, Okay, They're like,
okay, Xbox just has to win this feud because it just makes sense.
And then fucking Jerko got to get you away from x Pock. Really
this guy, Jerico says, I gotta get a fuck away this guy,
dude, I gotta go. So x poc wins, XBO goes underneath the
ring to get his fucking numb chucks. He's got his numb chucks. Yes,
do you fucking going crazy dumb chuck style? Get it? Jerko low
blows him, grabs the numb chucks, does his own numb chuck routine,
and it hits x Pock right in the fucking forehead with him square on the
forehead with the fucking numb chucks. Then Xbock is bleeding. Yeah, Xbox
now bleeding, I wrote down at this point this might be my favorite match
of the year I've ever seen. X Pock is pissed the whole fucking match.
Jericho is lighting him up, which I'm sure didn't make this idy easy
better. Yeah, and and fucking inten trunk in the head numb chucks,
cool moves good finished after match, crazy shit. Jericho then grabs his ass
on the table. He's bleeding, by the way, Xbox, they're both
bleeding. Yes, they're gaily announced table. Jericho locks in the walls of
Jericho and Xi. He's dying on this fucking table. Yeah, this as
funny as though. Man, what a great fucking match. Yeah, wow,
a two minute like can you imagine being pitched? Sorry, hey guys,
you guys have two minutes for a first Blood match tonight. And then
I have no clue. Yeah, and then they end up making like one
of the best segments of the night out of his even thinking of the Xbox
said, he's probably already fuming that they got too that his spot gets fucked
like the bottle I then the matches he was supposed to be shorter than that,
the bottle brokes. I don't know what to do. What do we
do? Jericho poses on the apron, he's bleeding in the crowds like fired
up for him. So I was like, oh, that's a good joke.
He's getting over. Yeah, Jericho's getting over over. Um, I
hope it's career turns all right? Nah, w shit, you know Lenny
Lane, Oh good, Yeah that works out for really well. So backstage
Triple H Stephanie are still in the exact same spot, chilling. Yeah.
Um, Steve Auston does come in and he is fucking irate. Stephanie is
unhappy as well. She's still cold. You know. I give you your
hat back yesterday and I said, Shane knew who ran you over, and
I said it couldn't been any the McMahon family. And then he stunned Shane
three times and poor beer on him. That was an embarrassment. Everybody watch
the show. She's a new t and N viewer. Austin looks at Triple
A and says, you're gonna shut her up? Or am I gonna have
to? Says heard you were looking for me yesterday. Austin says, everyone
knows I'm conducting an investigation here and you're one of the prim suspects. Someone
had me locked up in the parking garage, so that good little friend,
meaning you could run me over with the car, which only makes sense because
since I've been gone, you've hadn't made a hell of a name for yourself.
So I want you to look me in the ash and give me your
story. Looks at him and he says, you want to know my story.
Yeah. Well, now, Austin, if I wanted to take you
out, I'm the kind of guy that would look you dead in your eye
and do the job like a man. But I did not run you over
with the car, and I don't know. That's not true, by the
way, true, but gaslighting is wrestling one. It also Austin solved the
entire case. He just did. Actually, he says, well, either
you're a liar or a crazy son of a bitch, or maybe maybe you're
telling the truth. He's not, Austin, He's not telling the So we
go backstage Michael Cole with The Rock or an interview. The Rock, of
course, is the WWF champion, and he asked him about his match tonight
with Chris bin Wa. Yeah, he says, Ben, while you claim
you were screwed, mcfoley said, you were screwed, and since you claim
you the best wrestler, that the Rock give you some wrestling advice. The
fact of the matter is this, you tried to pin the Undertaker an Undertaker
put his phone on the rope, which means you won absolutely nothing. Finally,
you're not the two time w A champion, You're not the one time
w A champion. But what you are is this. You are the all
time without a shadow of a doubt, punk guess son of a bitch.
Oh my fucking god, take my phone, now, my phone now?
Holy shit? So good you dumb? Best fun of his nickname or anything.
He kind of he was kind of easy on him here. He was
about it. He said, the rabbit Wolverine will go against the Brahma Bowl
and one more time you will hit rock Bottom and you will smell what the
Rock is cooking. Yeah, he still puts him over a little bit,
so so respects him enough to call him the rabid Wolverine. Still still he
was just like, look, man, you didn't win the match, but
I will face you to night and you know I'll win. Like that's what
you should say, and I and I will win. I'm the good promo,
sure is short, sweet fucking Rock got the whole thing over. That's
how you do a fuck promo right there? For real? You want absolutely
nothing on the road. Who are stupid as we get Eddie Guerrea versus val
Venus with the icy title on the line. Yeah, I mean this,
Uh, I don't remember shit about this match. Yeah, so hot start
for this one. Like pretty much every single match, and I don't think
had a hot start. McK foley also said that Bullby can they on a
commentary that McK folly said that Bullby, Cannon and good Father had to stay
backstage they were not allowed out here. And then Lawler says, uh,
he's Lawler on commentaries talking about China having a tattoo in a very very special
place. Anyway, double underhook sup plates for you. He says that,
okay, fucking given a break break, we've gone to his home show.
I gotta watch val Venus run. So Valvenus uses ground cheese and hits as
crazy ground cheese. It's a butterfly soup lex um blah blah blah blah blah.
China rips off Stephen Richards pants. It's that's blah blah blah blah.
Is exactly what happens there. Nothing happens to me. This has gotta be
top five top t worst motherfucker wrestlers. He's the top five biggest bitches.
To get the fuck out of here. He goes up top for the money
shot, which they haven't renamed. Eddie gets up there and cuts him off.
Then he hits a superho. Why have they not renamed anything for this
guy? They do not care about him. That's why they want gone Nitro.
He's this fucking guy in Nitro. He'd do great on Nitro. Yeah,
go fucking team with Prince IAK. Get the funk out of here,
man. So Stepard Richards gets up on the apron word. We're getting there.
We're getting there, I promise. Stephen gets up on the apron ref
yells in him. China comes around, grabs his legs, then trying to
rips his pants off and exposes Stephen richards entire ass. He's hanging. His
ass is hanging out of his underwear. And this is also where I learned
that Steven Richards wears the races. Yeah, just one. And then Eddie
rolls up Valve for the wind Here and Jr. On commentary white shocks.
Steven Richards got panched, and Lawler says he's got white butt cheeks too.
FA cat with you. Yeah chicken wire damage, Yeah, man, Valven's
gonna get the look man. I apologize also to Prince I k you not
you didn't it was fine. I'm sorry. Would have done you would have
gotten about bas or your team perside, or he would have been a misfits
in Action, which is probably where he belonged to be. Yeah, you're
right, and the misfits and Action were just shitty, right to censor.
He would have been been tiny Penis. That's actually what he would have been,
right, good. I like that. I like the idea, Tony
that they didn't give him a fucking name. Extra. He's just tiny penis.
Well's just ranking, you know, he's tiny, tiny penis is.
I probably would end up liking him, so maybe he didn't get me tiny
penis. So yeah, I love that Eddie Guerrero had to fucking roll up
about Venus. I would have patted smoked this clown six ways for Sundy every
finish. I got you taking one to night. I'll tell you that much.
The Intercontinental Champion could have get it done again. I would have gave
China a chair. I could chair. You're asking the ring for you,
and you know what you're fucking doing to night, bitch, You're waking up
a sifit side. Yeah, I tell you, Prince, I can't.
I'm so sorry as I can't, but you know that's it's true. Paris
on this goddamn show by the way, you'll be nowhere near Valvi and his
brother. I promise you, if I was running a feeders on, I
would have had you pat your smoking valves hiss ass. I'll tell you that
much. Yea, I would have over there his ass up. I'll tell
you that much. All right. So it shows Crash Holly at w w
F New York trying to buy a drink um. He gets carded and they
say he's not old enough. I don't understand this joke because he looks young.
He looks like even though yeah, he has two forms of idea that
they're legit and yeah, they say it's real edge. So sorry, I

down of the ring. He walks up the stairs, enters the ring,
walks up to Regal, hits a stunner. His music doesn't stop. He
just gets up, walks down to just fucking leaves. I love this so
goddamn much, dude. It was. It was the most I don't give
a fuck stunner of all time. It is tremendous. It was good.
It was just exactly what I needed at this with this show. Yeah.
Um so Crispin wa was in the back learning how to box. Uh yeah,
Rhonda Rousey es go the back and we get the rock versus Crispin Waugh

I could not believe that they didn't censor that. Yeah, what happens if
the whole arena just started channing? Fuck? Just fuck, I don't know.

or what was it called not boycott? What's the word? Uh? That's
right, take over Raw, like when the Brian should happen, that's the
way you should have did it. You should have yelled the whole time.
All those people watch aw now, yeah, that whole section of fans do
not watch the sitting the wars. So that's crazy. I think about,
yeah, you're right, but yeah, you pussy um. And then Rock
it's so loud, it's the loudest chant of the Knight. It's so loud
that they can't even ignore they try to ignore it. And then like Jerry,
I think I know what they're saying. Would you fucking go to hellbe?
So the Rock locks in the sharpshooter on Crispin wah, and you really
got to give it to the Rock here. He is gonna do that move
badly and it is going to look like shit every single fucking time, but
it will be his shitty move. And Shane then punches the Rock at the
sharpshooter and he fucking cartoon dives out of it. She also leans in.
He's like he doesn't get in the ring. He leans in underneath the top
and fiddle rope and fucking just decks. Ben Wah then hits the German soup
plexus three in a row, but Rock reverses on the third into a DDD
for a two. Yes, ben Wad diving headbut dude got crazy fucking air
on this one. Unbelievable. There By the way, just before this,
I'm surprised you didn't note this because I know you love this, Ben Wah
had a gut kick out of an Irish shot. Fut that down the Irish
room gut kick. I'm glad. I'm glad as he does that. Maybe
Rock just I don't know if it was an iriship. Maybe that's why it
was different. But Rocket the ropes and ben Wad just got kicked up.
Okay, if it's Irish gut kick. Yeah, I would probably be like,
Hi, Yeah, yeah, Ben Watt diving head butt, crazy air
camera shot, super dope. It's very cool, very cool. More people
should do the diving head butt regularly. Yeah, it's sweet. Yeah,
I mean yeah, it's good. It's good. Yeah. If Harley Race
did it, you can do it. Harley Race could do a lot though.
Yeah, you haven't seen actually half of every one day somewhere. You
will be able to see that. Someday you'll be unveiled to you. Shade
pulls Earl Heavener out of the ring. Earl runs over the Shane and starts
fucking berating. He's just yelling at him, shoves them and chases you a
little idiot pussy. This is classic. Hebner spot Ben Wath and throws rock
into Heavener and takes he takes a bump off the apron. He's down.
Um Jr. And Jerry Lawler are begging for a new REFF. They are
begging. They're asking for someone in. It doesn't matter with this one's fine.
I like that though. I like that they're asking for the REFF.
I think that's cool. Yeah, because I know you know, just one
and done. You can say, hey, we need a new ref out
here. You don't have to like keep it going, but like um.
Shane then comes in and lines Rock in the back and does his little dance.
Yeah. As he's doing his little dance, Rock fucking dance immediately and
stares him down. When he did that, all I could think it was
the vine boom boom Rock with his spinebuster on Shane. Ben Wah then clotheslines
Rock out of his fucking shoes. Dude, he closes the fuck out of
him here man ben Wah grabs a chair and then Jr. Says martial law
here. I thought that was a bet. This is the most overbooked crazy
fucking like Rock couldn't have just beat yeah dude, ben Wah crazy protective.
I was surprised at how much they protective. I think Shane saw a lot
in ben Wah. Yeah, Like I think like he was. He was
friends with him backstage apparently like okay, like in the real yeah tm ww
boys you know, yeah, and he was he was like super he because
he I think Shane was. Shane was super more were into the wrestling than
he was like the segments, Like he thought the wrestling was the coolest part
of wrestling. So I think like Ben Wah was like the guy wrestlers wrestler.
Yeah, so he was super into it. Shane gets up behind Rock,
like I said, fucking knocks him out crazy style. Um. He
gets up, gets up behind Rock, Rock ducks ben Wa brains Shane with
his fucking chair and he takes that ship clean. Dude, That's what I
legit wrote all caps. Ben while brains Shane with a chair. It's notice.
Yeah, he takes him out. Crazy is awesome. Stephanie runs out
here to check on Shane because that's her brota. Yeah. Triple H is
also here now, and he tells Stephane, you get the fuck out of
the ring. He's not concerned about Shane. He's concerned that Stephanie's here to
look at Shane. Yeah, come on, Crispin WAW's out here, Get
the fuck out of the ring. So Triple H and step roll literally roll
Shane out of the ring. Yeah, rolling out. That's that's what vi
IF did to Chris Danger and rolled his ass out of the ring. Jr.
Is hissed that they are not bringing a new REFI here's your Mortal Championship
match. Here's not a right now? Are you kidding me? Right now?
Start choking Jerry, Jerry. I was like, god, oh my
god, crazy, he's pussy so Rock Irish whips Crisp and walling to Triple
H. And of course that kisses Triple H because he did it on purpose.
Of course, yes, of course did that on purpose. And Triple
H is also hurt from the match he had with Kurt Angle. Ben Wadin
swings on Triple H missus Triple A's jaw Jackson two K style on the rope.
Yes, turns him around rock Bottom here three count Rock retains the title,
big Pop Triple A just still in the apron talking shit down to be
that's crazy rocks up. He he hits the pose with the title on the
fucking buckle. Him and Triple H have a stair down and then all of
a sudden, Kurt Angle runs down. Kurt Angle runs out, clotheslines Rock
and then I tacks yeah, get crazy, Yeah yeah, Ben wan Angle,
and I'll stomping the fuck out of the Rock in the corner. I
mean they're stopping this ship out, dude. Yeah. Triple H saves I
think, not saves, but he attacks Kurt because he fucking hates Kurt.
He stops Kurt because he wants to kick his ass specifically, yeah, exactly,
So yeah, he starts kicking his fucking ass. And then steph gets
in and then she goes up to Kurt Angle and slaps Kurt Angle slaps the
shit out of him too. Yeah, legit, So what are you doing?
And he's arguing Stephanie here, they're both going fucking back and forth,
and ben Wah walks up and he looks at Kurt and he goes, what
are you doing? He said, that's Stephanie McMahon right there. Yeah,
what the hell are you doing? He's like confronting him about how dare you
and then he goes ben wa mode d. Ben Wah grabs Stephanie and head
butts Stephanie. Jit grabs her by the head and fucking headbuts her and she
fucking call I've never seen anything like this before. I've never seen but a
girl like that before. I've never seen that. The crowd reaction was beautiful,
like they were like, oh the fuck yeah, j R. Lolly,
Oh my god, man, gosh, Martial, Liz Chadd, You're
gonna die. Oh You're gonna die. I so ben Wa Hippa Stephanie and
then Kurt looks at steph afterwards leaves. Yeah. Fu, Yeah, he
leaves, He's I'm done with his shit. They're protecting the fun out They
definitely like don't later on, but like there are some spurts where like they
really give ben Walla And this is one of those times. I think ben
Wa was always protected because like his matches were so good that like even if
he lost or something, his performance allowed him to steal. The fans are
like, ah, you know what, they want to to believe in him.
Yeah, his performance was enough for me to go. You know,
he's given it a wrestlers out there, that's all. It takes some time
because the crowd just has to be like this guy gave it everything he got.
Yeah, if you have enough intensity, if someone booked you to go
out there and get fucking destroyed, as long as you showed enough intensity and
fucking passionate heart, doesn't really matter, no men at all until we do
it nine weeks in a row, ten weeks to a rower cycles in a
row, and maybe at that point it does matter. But forts there,
yeah, you can make it, you can make it happen you know what
I mean. Um, and Kurt looks at Steph and then he just fucking
leaves. His music plays and he just leaves. He leaves step laying there
and says, Oh, that's how I'm supposed to leave. Oh, get
out of here. I gotta go TNN style. Yeah, what a crazy
way to end your first show on a network. Yeah, fucking switch the
TNN and attacks Stephanie. Yeah, this is uh, this is crazy stuff.
A lot of stone Cold on this show. Uh fucking crazy ladder match,
the funniest Xbox Jericho match of all time and the best probably yeah probably.
