Wow. Yeah, wow we oh yeah, we be right the fuck
up. Well, anyways, boys, we are gonna be talking about WWF
Monday Night, Raw, November twenty third, nineteen ninety eight. Yes,
a legendary moment in time. I say that a lot, and I mean
it every single time, because this is the episode where the Undertaker and Paul
Barrett tried they kidnap and try to embalmb Stone called Steve Boston Live ones,
I call your fluids out or some what's embalming? He stuck his juices out
of them. I know that when I see it. I see it.
I'm going the regularly. Wet's talk about all that once we get to it.
Before we get into the WWF, we have some Deadlock updates for you.

me happy. All right now, we got to watch this up on the
Patreon. Shingo versus Morishimo r Ways, Good Times, Great Memories two thousand
and seven for the ROH World title. Yeah, this is Moroshima's insane run
where he won the belt and nobody thought he was gonna do that, and
then every match he had after that, everyone was like, well, this
fucking dude's gonna lose because we're not gonna keep the belt on him for long.
Little did they know it was gonna go on for a minute. Retro
sync is up on the Patreon Final Raw before the HD era. Yes,
this was It was this twenty ten or maybe earlier in that. I actually
forget what the date was. But it's also the episode where Jeff Hardy hates
Randy Orton so much that he climbs on top of a scaffold and jumps on
him. Is this the way? Is this the one with the is that
a trash can? One where he jumped off the yeah dumpster? Yeah?
Yeah, no, no, not to This was on like next to the
stage. This is next to the Oh okay, all right, yeah now
you're thinking of jumping off the the trailer in the back. Yeah, yeah,
I'm thinking of that one. He a lot of stuff he did.
That was his thing for I guess till now still he still does that.
Actually, yeah, he should do that again. He should have closer to
North Carolina. DPW Live seven is available on DPW on Demand, which saw

B, T I X, dot com. So, as everybody knows,
we have two of the fattest son of a bitches ever on the Deadlock podcast.
As we decided that that is changing now we're only gonna have one fat
guy. We're actually doing reverse in the roles. Yeah, we're James and
I are gonna drop weight and we're gonna fat and Tony up to the shake
things. No oh no, oh, okay, sorry we misunderstood this segment.
But there is two fat guys that are going to be not fat at
some point in the future. Yeah. So we have been talking about this
for a while. This was actually something that James and I wanted to start
at the beginning of the year. Uh, and then I ended up on
my deathbed, so yeah, yeah, that was It was pretty bad for
a minute. So things changed and the great twenty twenty four plan we had
to start off the year had to go a different way. And it's you
know, we were I've I mean, I've been making a lot of excuses
that I've been you know, I'm busy, at which I you know,
I'm busy, but there's no reason that my business should get in the way
of me having a healthier life. And I would like to be around for
a little longer than you know, ten more years, and if I keep
things up how they are, I might not make it that long. So
I would like to make some changes here. So we are saying this on
the show because we feel like if we, you know, kind of keep
you guys in the loop and maybe they know, maybe this inspire you know,
a couple of the dippers out there to join us on this adventure.
Yeah you should. Yeah, maybe we'll make like a maybe we can make
someone in the reddit or something like that for people to to like just time
in weekly. Like how we have the retro thread that just kind of goes
on forever, we can have one of these. That's sure. People need
to gain weight too, I think that'd be cool. Yeah, So right
now, my plan is that it's going to start the week the show comes
out, because this weekend is DPW weekend, and I'm gonna just I'm gonna
go on an unbelievable run of being a fat bastard one more time, one
more time run. Yeah. I don't have a goal exactly in mind of
like weight or anything like that, because my goal to start is to start
doing this again. Sure, Yeah, that's and if you see it here
in explosions while I'm recording, it's because everyone is setting off every firework they
have in Philadelphia right now. So I've apologized about that as well. But
yeah, so my goal is just to kind of get back in, get
a regular gym schedule again, and then you know, kind of go back
to calorie counting, because at one point, one point, gentlemen, I
got down to two hundred and three pounds, which is like for me nuts
not I like, I I was fitting in medium shirts medium truly the medium
SI. So yeah, yeah, we you know, and we I don't
know if we'll do it every week, James, but we'll definitely know chime
in here and there, just to kind of keep ourselves accountable. And this
is doing it on the show feels like helpful that I have. I'll have
to keep up with it because I don't want to get dogged on. Well
you don't get roasted, I get it, I don't. I don't.
Yeah, yeah, no, I agree, I think that's very cool.
Yeah what was that? Yeah, for real, I've done it a few
times in my life. At this point. It's just about getting disciplined enough
to do it. I know, exactly what needs to be done. I
know exactly I've done it a ton. My ability to lock in second to
none. I'll be honest with you all I have. I have a picture
on my phone that will lead me through uh this whole shin dig It's a
minion and he's holding a dumb bell. Oh my god, I remember this
picture. Wow, I was telling Ji, won't you look at his picture?
This is what got me locked in? Yes, we uh, you
know, we're we're hoping to to to make some changes here to better ourselves.
And and you know, if any if this, you know, if
it helps any of you along your way, if you want to join in
with us, well, now's the time. Don't wait till uh no New
Year's resolution. Let's fucking lock in right now, all right now, it's

there now, all right, now, it is time to venture into the
world of the World Wrestling Federation. Monday Night Raw November twenty third, nineteen
ninety eight, otherwise known as the episode where the Ministry tries to im Bombstone
called Steve Austin to death. Not only well, is that worse than them
kidnapping him from a hospital. That's the normal part of this somehow. Well,
let's before we get into that, let's take a look at what was
going on in the world wrestling at the time. With the Wrestling Observer newsletter
from November twenty third, nineteen ninety eight. The major contracts that are you
and nineteen ninety nine are the Giant Rick and Scott Steiner, Dean Malenko,
Chris Jericho, Chrispin Waugh, Raymsterio Junior, and Hooven Good Hooven Dude Guerrera
wrestler and in WWF Ken Shermonck, Jeff Jarrett and Hunter Hearst. Helmsley's contracts
are due in ninety nine. The big talk here is about the Giant of
the ww wrestlers whose deals are coming due over the next year plus. The
Giant is considered by many in the company as very close to gone Giants.
Four hundred thousand dollars per year contract expires on February ninth, and reports elsewhere
indicate w W will offer him two point nine millions spread over three years to
keep him. Wait wait, wait, wait wait they wanted Wow, he's
like an undercard act with insane clown posse. They were gonna pay him?
How much money? They were gonna give him? Two point nine millions spread
over three years? The Giant. This is the big show Giant, dude.
Wow, okay, thinking I thought you were talking about the Giant Silver
Giant. Wow. All right, anyways, you're right, yeah, big
show. Wow, that'd be fucking awesome. I was like, Wow,
they wrote him off crazy on this episode Huge Flames for the Giants, Remember
him like that? That thought never crossed by that it was Giant s Yeah,
wow, Well, I mean I watched the Giants faster. Then he
should be Italian or something, right, it wasn't he he should be in
the FBI. Yes, I'm pretty sure he was. He was in New
Japan too, I think, wasn't he probably on Team two thousand or whatever.
Well he was, come on, man, Yeah, that's what I
was surprised. That was what I said. I learned some new information.
He was going to w c W on a multi million dollar deals. What's
the big show, dude? Yeah, sorry, sorry, I'm sorry.
I got fucked up when you said, yeah, no, no, it
is. It is the Giant. I mean the Giant. Time is still
over in w c W. Right, Like, it's not like he's it's
hard to not have that guy being man event or I guess it's but I
don't know. You're going to the same places, the same track. Like
he comes over here, man, he gets destroyed within weeks. Can cry
a month and him and then again him again. Yeah, you couldn't got
treated any worse than w CW. No, no, he got and like
let's see, at the end of his w c W run, Goldberg's beating
him, the nWo merges and then they feud with a giant I think,
uh, and then his contract runs out in February. Yeah, I mean
I imagine and he took a bunch of money from the video game he did
I did. I've heard about We talked about that on the show. Yeah,
we brought it up on the show from this show, right, yeah,
the Giant. Like I I he made the right call. I mean,
like history shows he made the right sure of course jump over to the
w w F. But I mean he's also I guess the way his career
turned out way better than it probably should have because like most of the guys
that got booked like he got booked would have been dead in the water and
life. Yeah like well, I mean also they booked him like ship like
for twenty three years. But like everyone, he's the big show. He's
on foot tall like you you you know, eliminate this guy from the Royal
Rumble do it's how do you pick that guy up? Yeah, we could
show you a whole package of him getting eliminated, and it doesn't matter because
you're still wondering how does it happens? The story of this man still did
want a ro Rumble. I don't think he ever did well. Well.
I guess technically he won the one against the with the rock, but they
said the rock won it. The rock did win. That me they both
did. The winner was the fans. I think not that fucking favorite Tony.
In most of the WIB contracts, and Meltzer says, I'm presuming,
and the Steiners and Giants contracts, there is a ninety day non compete clause,
which means after the contract ends, if it isn't renewed, the talent
can't work for WF for three more months. Whether that is legal is speculative
and well. In the case of Stephen Regal, Tony was taken a court
and before a ruling was made, w C simply dropped his claim of keeping
Regal from appearing, which ended up being a moot point due to regals various
injuries and illnesses. This year, Giant has talked of a one million dollars
per year deal from Titan Sports, although that has been denied by those at
Titan because they're not allowed to say that they have been talking to him about
a contract yet because that would be contract Dan Free. Of course, they
were talking a big show, not the Giant. They were talking to Paul
White. Hold it for man they're talking to. Say no, they were
talking and Giant. So relay this information. You can contract different giants of
all you fucking want. WW news. There was talk of Goldberg versus Jericho
at the pay per view, but that doesn't look like it'll happen. It's
become a big problem because Goldberg doesn't want to sell or have the match,
and Jericha wants to have the match but doesn't want to do a quick squash,
and uh, they have issues for a long time, those two,
I feel like forever. I think, Yeah, squashed. People have issues
with Goldberg though, don't they. Yeah. I think a lot of guys
in the business have issues with doing business too. That's fucking protecting yourself.
And then there's just being an ass wipe. Yeah, And a lot of
people get away with being an asshole just because they can. Yeah. Right
after getting married over the weekend, Dennis Rodman is trying to get out of
it, saying he was totally wasted, so it shouldn't count. Meltzer says,
if that's the case, WW should use the same logic in saying his
wrestling contract was in valid. Reason Yeah. From The Observer November thirtieth,
nineteen ninety eight. He says, as the quote unquote inside story goes,
which may or may not have a degree of validity. Hogan and Bischoff had
a business falling out when Bischoff decided to go with Hogan's enemy Kevin Nash as
new booker, thus greatly diluting Hogan's political power. The straw that may have
broke the camel's back is in the current plan for Nash to beat Bill Goldberg
for the title at Starkade, since Hogan agreed to put or Hogan agreed to
put Hogan over. Hogan agreed to put Goldberg over cleanly the right way for
the title at the Georgia Dome as part of a deal where Goldberg's first loss
would be to him, most likely at Starkad. While there were tended to
plans on the table for Nash to win the Battle Royal and then the title
at Starkad, before any of this happened, there was also serious talk that
the end result would be for Nash to rejoin the nWo and possibly even hand
the belt to Hogan, Which does happen. That's what happens in ninety ninety
that the belt, Yeah, and then he gives Ogan the fucking belt and
joins the n The darkest day history and the w W history ever for wrestling
history. Actually well, rather than stay with his power diluted, Hogan chose
to leave the company and is expected to announce his retirement from pro wrestling on
Thanksgiving night on the Jay Lenos show. Get worked, he become a hard
and then it doesn't. So Hogan's plan was he was going to do business
for Goldberg, but he wanted to beat Goldberg at Starkad. Yeah, so
he'd get his win back at Star Kid, which is hahaha, I love
you. Gotta get fucked Hogan. He's staring amidst all the turmoil. By
the way, w CW presented uh what at this point appears to be its
final three ring Battle Royal driven pay per view event. Apparently, the decision
was considered a few weeks back to eliminate the sixty man Battle Royal concept,
which has resulted in poor television event every year. But since so much advertising
was already Outson with wit already hot with cable companies over the Halloween have a
fiasco where the paper you like ended that before I was supposed to, the
decision was made to at least continue it for the World War because it was
World War three, right, Yeah, that's right, right, Okay,
yeah, I always thought that was a cool idea, and like the Royal
Rumble was obviously always over Do you think that just sixty was two muchs it's
too ambitious? I know as a kid, I'd be like, this is
the coolest ship I've ever seen in my fucking ye Yeah, three fucking rings
and yeah dude and thirty dudes in each of them or whatever. I didn't
play enough into the imagination of it. Yeah, a bunch of cool like
marketing, interpromotional, and bunch of stupid ship. Yeah for real, you
could have done a ton of stuff with it. I just don't think they,
you know, were too intera. They need to hype it more because
I didn't even know, Like the winner gets a shot at star kid,
I guess, right, isn't that? That is? Like three is like
one of their least promoted like things. Ever. I feel like, you
know what, everyone knows it because it's the three Ring fucking Rumbles show,
But like, I don't know, they changed it. They changed the rules
so the in the first one they got a world Headway title, the second
one they got a match it sold out, the third one they got to
match it uncensored, and then then the one after that they got to match
a starcade, so there was no consistency there. Yeah, it was just
kind of whatever wanted and went to Starkate. It would have been the best,
right Yeah. Like if that's their biggest show, you get a shot
at the biggest show. Yeah, why not? Just got it right.
Yeah, that's the type of ship you do when you just have fun money.
It's like making a triple cage. You know, we're gonna do a
triple cage, which was awesome. Yeah, if you have the money,
that's what I'm saying. If you have the money, fucking you should be
doing that. You should be having triple rings. Fucking stack them up long
way. Yeah, staircase style to a spiral staircase and you gotta go to
the next Yeah. Whatever, man, you know we're coming up with ship
I'm drawing ship up. I'm having kids draw ship up. I'm like,
hey, come up with whatever you think would be cool. Yeah, the
craziest imagination you got and give it to us. Well, we got the
money. We're doing marketing ship with Like schools come up with the next w
C W notch. It's just our rings floating in the sky. You have
to try to climb up into it. It's an underwater match. Yeah,
like, come on with whatever you can. You have a nitro party and
you and your frat boys come up with the best nitro. There's one.
There's a bunch of beer for the boys. Kevin Nash's booking. We're doing
a beer match seven year old little Tivvy for that. The suggestion I think
it should be Miller Light. We put Tony the Tiger out there. Yeah,
we got grim Is from McDonald's is here, Holy ship. Let's have
a put a ring on Gullah Gulla. Let's all speaking of World War three.
Hold though, before you get the best part of our World of three
was all the matches leading up to the big thing. They always win the
other rings and stuff. That was awesome. Oh yeah, that must have
been like crazy in person, right, Yeah. They would fight like Ray
would jump from wondering to the other or some shit. That's it was awesome.
But like if you're if they changed rings each match, I think,
don't they like it's not always in the same one. Yeah, you're probably
right. Yeah yeah, so like so everyone could get a match, but
it's like if you're on the shitty side, it's like, oh, I
can't see shit. The last couple of things here from the observed December seventh,
nineteen ninety eight. Haul Hogan announced his retirement on the Tonight Show on
November twenty sixth, and talked about running for president. Yes, yes,
yes, Maltzer says, oh yeah. Last week, Maltzer says. Supposedly
they had a pre show agreement that Jay Leno would throw him nothing but softballs
and some in ww fel. Leno double crossed them by actually making Hogan look
silly, like asking him if he was going to be a Republican or Democrat
right down the middle. Brother, that was that's a silly question, party
right down the middle. Brother. Hogan said, I did not see that
one coming, and if he had any issues, he would address flat tax
brother after the ladder, give him the easy ones. After the ladder comment,
Leno asked him what the flat tax should be, and Hogan stuttered before
coming up with sixteen percent. When Leno asked him how he got that figure,
he said, well, sixteen's uh more than fifteen? Brother? Oh
ok, yeah, So Hogan's retired here, boys, it's it's all over.
Nineteen ninety Hogan found out he couldn't beat Goldberg and said, fuck this
ship. Yeah for real, that's the little kid throwing a deportati. I'm
gonna quit. No, No, I'm gonna wrestle the giant Silvi dude,
I got right now. Yeah, fuck you you wanna you want to be
in charge, Kevin Ash, I'm gonna run the country. Kevin you want
a war, I'm being in president. I gotta run button, you're o
press, I'll start many wars or last thing here. Scott Steiner tried to
plead guilty last week on charges of aggravated assault and making terroristic threats, but
the judge wasn't satisfied with his story, and the prosecutor prosecution excuse me,
withdrew the plea bargaining agreement. According to the story, the allegation is from
Paul Casparine, a warker with the Georgia Department of Transportation, was directing traffic
and wouldn't let Steiner's car into a closed lane. Steiner stopped, climbed out
of his pickup truck and told Casparine to move out of the way. Uh,
and said move or I will run you over. Then Steiner got back
into the car and hit Casperine with the car. He told him to move
or he'd run him over. I guess he tapped him with the car and
he said I'm gonna run you over and then hit him with the car again.
Casperine wasn't seriously hurt, as he just tapped him. Steiner showed up
to plead guilty to terroristic threats, but his attorney told the judge that he
doesn't believe he committed a crime and plead guilty was only because he thought the
jurymiken victim because of his heel persona in wrestling. The judge threw it out,
though, that is that is fucking crazy. Man. I can't Scott
Steiner adding zone with his car in real life. Just I can't picture that
being a real thing. But I guess these dudes are fucking really crazy and
that's why they're the best wrestlers. But that is it for the wrestling observable
person of this. And now let's talk about Monday Night Roll November twenty third,
nineteen ninety eight. All right, now, let's get into this.
Damn. We start off with the cold open here. That's a real cold
over right there, brother, cold open here. The rock is now the
corporate champion. Yes, Survivor series. It is this the mind Games one,
I think right, Deadly Game, Deadly Game, that's right, yes,
dead lely ga. I look that. Yeah, I got a VHS
back here for that one. Oh you do? I forgot about that.
That's sick as hell. Yeah. They recap survivorsory his Deadly Game, which
was a tournament for the WF Championship, which The Rock won via screw job
son of a bitch. Yeah, and Vince says the people screwed the people,
and the Rock says, if you smell the Rock is good, that's
what he says. Okay YEA also came out on Raw after that with a
legally binding contract that gives him a title shot at the Rock. And how
I knew it was legally binding because Judge mills Lane says, yeah, he's
on the death match guy, that guy. That's right, Yeah, that
fucking the same guy. Judge mills Lane shut up on the trund and says,
this is a binding contract. Vince tells Ken Shamrock that he could use
a man like him in the corporation, and Shamrock joins the corporation. Oh
yeah, j R. Says Shamrock showed his should to the Devil Master himself.
Wow, that's a gnarly nickname. That wasn't that doesn't stick. The
man doesn't stick. So they do Austin versus Rock for the w WF title
on Raw, and Vince says this is Austin's last shot at the w F
Championship, just like Hogan's retired. Oh yes, Mankind comes out and goes
after Vince, but boss Man and Shamrock fuck him up. Austin hits a
stunner on Rock and Shamrock pulls the ref during the game. What the hell
fuck you? Shamrock shucks him Shampcock, you baster? No, no,
Well, Austin takes out Shamrock. But what's next. The Undertaker comes down
to the ring with a shovel. He has a big golden shovel and he
smashes that son of a bitch in Austin's head. He brainstone caled with who's
he? That's what Austin's fucked up with the shovel. Rock winds and Jr.
Is flipping out, wha why the Undertaker strike caution? They make JR.
Go through it here like this whole Austin thing at the end of the
show. Jr. Is losing his mind. By the end of this show,
man, this shit is crazy, which is even funnier because it's not
the end of the show, Like there's more. Yeah, yeah, like
there's this and then I guess he loses mine twice, right, Yeah,
yeah, he loses mind the whole show. So Jim Ross tells us that
they will take us to the San Jose Medical Center to talk to Steve Austin
because he passed out in San Jose at a house show and they kept him
at the medical center and we have footage of that, and we're gonna show
you Stone cold blacking out at a house show, because yeah, I would
like to see that. I'd like to see the horrible conditioned Stone cultson please.
Jim Ross also tells us that there will be a new commissioner here tonight.
Oh yeah, the new commissioner Crown here tonight. Like he didn't want
it. Yeah, Sergeant Slaughter apparently has done absolutely fucking nothing for a year.
You would not even know this guy was the commissioner half the time.
Come on, he came out and got made fun of by d X every
week for a year. So now we start off with the corporation town Hall,
Yeah, corporation, no music yet Hunt doesn't think the corporation yet.
Really they're the uh yeah, but they're not. Like officially they use the
word corporation, but the group isn't because it's just like Vince and the Stooges
or what they call him or whatever. Yeah, that's Slaughter too big fat.
So Vince, Shane, the Stooges and Sergeant Slaughter come out here,
and Vince wants to tell everybody that he had nothing to do with the Undertaker
hitting Stoke in the head with a shovel, even though I enjoyed it,
I encourage it, I endorse it. I have nothing to do with that
at all. When when they're getting the ring, Jar say, oh,
you see Shane, they're holding the ropes for his daddy. He hates the
son of a bitch. Uh yeah, Vince says, you know, you
feel Vince McGannon was behind the brutal attack, but I had nothing to do
with it, and uh and I categorically deny these accusations. And as you
know, I don't lie. I've never lied. I don't lie I taking
out of context. I don't lie. I deny these allegations, and I
don't lie. Well, now, in just a moment, we will name
a new WWF commissioner. And why because everything I do and then my family
does we do for you. I mean he's he's pouring his art out here
to the w F fans like he did something wrong. It's crazy because this
is all because Undertaker hits Steve Aosta in the head with a shovel, A
big fucking huge shovel. Yeah, it's Undertaker size shovel. It is.
It's the length of the Undertaker. Vince says. I know we disagree sometimes,
but from the bottom of my heart, everything we do we do for
you, and Shane for somebody. It cuts to Shane, and Shane's,
for some reason doing the Nation of domination time he is, Vince says.
Commissioner Slaughter has graciously stepped down as commissioner so that WWF can advance and have
an independent freethinker at the helm. What the hell does that mean? Yeah,
well, this is we're setting up a SWERD for tonight. Like this
is crazy. I mean, like, if you're just watching this show,
you're like, why the fuck would he give up power to the You know
what? I mean, like it doesn't We're gonna let this guy step down
so someone else can come in and funk with us for the rest of our
lives. Like he also gives up all the power and says I have no
power, like only person I power over his. Stone Cold he Le does
say that Tony the only exception to you. He has every right and privilege
to treat every superstar with equality, equality and dignity. The only exception is
Stone Cold Steve Aston. He's mine. I think you can bookmark Marion.
I'm the book in Stone Cold. I don't want to get blame for this
shitty show. You deal with the giant Soba. They're paying him three years
may so Vince says, without further ado, the McMahon family probably presents to
you the new WF commissioner, the only Grand Slam winner here in the wwfter
that rand Sean my goals. So Sean is still under contract at this time.
And I think just before this, like maybe even the weekend before this,
he got told by doctors, yeah, your career is over. So
I think this was them trying to like give him Doctor Acula actually saw him
on this day. You can't work unless they pay you more money and you
get to do more of what you like. But yeah, so like I
think they were just trying to get anything they could out of, you know,
paying They were already paying him, so like we might as well put
them on TV doing something. So yeah, Sean comes out huge pop for
Sean comes out in the black cowboy hat in a suit on and j R.
Says, I guarantee Mitchell Gran can't control Shawn michaels Uh and Lala says,
well, why do you make a good shure? Then yeah, that's
fucking right, Jerry, and Sean says, it looks like there's a new
sheriff in town, Vinman. Or is that mister vin Mann? Dude?
Vin Man's I'm crazy in this that's devil Master. Mister Sean says he'd like
to thank him for this opportunity and the heartbreak, get his thrilled to be
back in the ring in one form or another. So the new commission of
the Wald Wrestling Federation, he can guarantee that things will never ever be the
same again. And in an effort JR. If I may still a line
of yours, Oh God, In an effort to add a little bit more
Sizzle. Tonight's Steak Jr. Said that he's always talking about Sizzle and Steak
on commentary all the time. Kids, Okay, hungry as hell? Uh,
mister vin Man, may I book my first match here tonight right now?
And Vince degrees and HBC says, tonight right here in this very ring
for the Wald Wrestling if Rational Championship and cuts the Vincent. He doesn't seem
too thrilled about that, and Sean says the Rock will defend against the Generation
X member Xbox can't tell me the d X music hits, and Sean starts
trotting around the ring, and I'm in my mind, I'm like, fucking
ship was crazy. I was like six Xbox, Yeah, xbo is on
my favorite ever. But I'm like sitting here like, oh damn all right
XPO. Yeah that's how I That solidified that some bullshit was going on to
night. You know. I mean, like Darren didn't around right now.
I don't know where he's not here, but sign that's also true. Didn't
Shawn Michaels when he left? They got Xbox to take his place, right,
That's right? Yeah, you had to look to your blood boys with
Xbox I don't get it. On X is a family, He's not ship.
It was a I don't see Vincers is cooking in his element here crack
Well. The d X team hits and Seawn's shutting around the ring. Vince
is annoyed in the ring. Sean goes to the corner and starts spamming cross
shops. And then Sean is on the ramp and he does what I can
only describe as telling Vince to give him head taunt. One. I said,
I worked on the bob head, gidding bob head getting head taunt.
I don't know how he is crazy thousand you know what. Yeah, there's
the sucking tie and then there's the head bobble. That's crazy. That's nuts.
Jim Ross says, Oh, I don't think this is what fits a
man had in mind when you hired Jean Michaels as commissioner. Yeah. Man,
we're all fucking stupid here. All of us are fucking stupid. This
is a tap dash show too. They said, put the head bobble in
there and cut cut the camera two. Okay, right over there, yep,
show the head bobble. Yeah, gazoom in on the head bob So
we have Shamrock versus boss Man versus mankind in a three way for the hardcore
title tonight. Now that is the corporate Shamrock and the corporate boss Man.
Please please get that right now. That's what that means for mankind. What's
that mean? It's gonna be a long match. It's gonna be Aller and
his fucking little boy haircut too little free haircut is nuts. There's a I
wrote tiny stone cold that commentary. I don't know some guy had a tiny
stone cold. I think in the day, I don't know it was really
important. I put in bold letters, have a little stone cold here.
I want you to have this. Jr. Also says after shuffering headaches,
nausea and headaches again all week, two to three symptoms that headaches, he
strink your water stone cold collapse last night in Shan Jose, and we have
exclusive footage of that, and we'll talk to the rattlesnake. And I don't
think he's gonna be in a very good mood, No, j are you
actually drive him up a fucking wall tonight. So we got to a pre
tape when we're back from commercial the pads, the black we come back.
Here's Kevin Kelly with a goatee saying, all right, in saying clown Posse,
dude, And it's Kevin Kelly, Violent Jays, Shaggy, two Dope,
lunav Shawn, Golga Kurgan and Giant Silva all just standing together all the
stars. Yeah wow and Violent So yeah, he says, you're you've had
your long away to match against the head Bangers to night in st clown Posse,
Violent j says, oh you know, yeah, we're supposed to wrestle
the Headbangers. But guys, you're right, we're not ready. I mean
I'm ready, Shaggy's not ready. Shaggy's not ready as a team. Uh,
and we need you guys to have our back tonight and have the match
against the head Bangers instead. And Lunava Shan says Shay hair too, he's
haired out, crazy and Violent J says, listen, just have our backs
to night, just one more night, and Lunas is all right, we
can do it. But what a disappointment. Everyone is just getting swerved tonight.
Boys don't get served. As they're talking here in the background, I
make a way to the Headbanger. I didn't hear that own the head Bangers.
Do they have the T shirts to I think they do. James mash
has uh three different versions of the burning Hammers. That's awesome. Nuts the
T shirts that you discovered in your video, Johnny, Yeah, I don't
think I've ever seen them wear that. That is not true. They never
wore It's very strange looking. So we have the Oddities versus the head Bangers.
Kurgan and Goga are the tag team. They'll be facing the head Bangers
tonight. Kirgan looks way too much like e C three he does. It's
actually absurd. Trouble trouble like easy thing with the hat. The Oddity is
also very beast group. Dude, they're over as fuck. I'm sad that
the song is dubbed on the Peacock, but what a great entrance these guys
have. Yeah, this ship I think works in any era. I'll keep
it real with you. I think like this obviously is the perfect err for
this, but I think this group works anytime. Yeah. Just a group
of the craziest looking people of all time coming out together. Yeah that why
would that not work? Yeah? I think that works. Like the crowd
is all into it. Too, and like insane clown. Posse is huge
at this point, like they're well yeah, yeah, they have a massive
underground swelling. Uh and Golga is now super into Cartman, which everyone is
relatable. Yeah, that was the coolest thing ever. Where do you get
that fucking giant doll? I want that? It's car Tony. I've never
seen one that big. You got that custom made and the shirt with carbon
it Cartman's ass on the back, very cool shirt. Violent j comes out
throwing gang signs. Yeah this is nuts, Like this is legit, This
is so of the era. It's crazy. But I genuinely think that this
could work at any point, Like I think maybe not, like maybe you
have to like change it to like fit what what's in I guess, like
I don't know if personally, I think Gogle would always come out with the
carbon plush no matter what era or any era. You're right, yeah,
but there's definitely like he could come out with like a Pickle Rick hymn plush.
Okay, Pickle Rick is crazy, Pile is crazy, Pickle Pickle Rick's
ass on his ship Pickle juice to get to the fucking spaceship, he says.
One saws those shells and the best Friends came out with the mass and
I have watched shows come around on that one, the best Friends coming out.
I'm here for you no matter what, Buddy pickle or not. Yeah,
so violent J gets on the apron here this match. They don't do
very much violent J. They try, I mean like, yeah, no,
it doesn't go fucking long at all they do. By the way,
talk about WF magazine and losses, I think raw magazine. You're right,
sorry, and Undertaker and Kin are on the cover, but it's what's inside
is important. Woo. I was about to say a spread, but it's
revealing photos of Terry Reynolds on the inside. Anyway, back, this is
Raw magazine for mature mature on your whatever he does. It's crazy CW is
giving away these pictures for free. There was hell yeah, man dot com,
let's go eas gonna be wrestling at Electros boobs and thegint making this fucking
magazine. I'm going to easyw Wrestling dot Com. It's take you forever.
Load Jesus, dude, it's loading, and god you go to deadlock.
PW dot com is a slow loading findly picture. Don't spend too long.
Look at click the spoiler tagg click the spoiler tag Chris every time. So
Violent Jay gets on the apron while Golga is going for the earthquake and Gorga
knocks Violent j off very intentionally, a little like the mask is covering a
lot, you know what I mean, it probably get hot. And there
is thing he had, like a facial deformity. I think that's oh yeah,
that's what they said. Yeah, yeah, Golga had a facial deformity,
so he wore the mask, right. Maybe you know, Tony,
I can take that. Yeah. If Jim Ross said that always his facial
deformity he can't see, yeah, because otherwise he just looked out. I
remember them saying that collar lot is facial deformity, and then they would always
like, hint, oh, I wonder what he looks like under there,
And I remember as a kid, I was like, holy shit, he's
probably ugly. Fucking Jason herself was John Ted to the whole time. Yeah,
it work so hard. He was a very young man. They didn't
even try to hide, Like, here's Golga going for the earthquer he has
a shoe to look get out of it. Saw John Ted to wrestle,
you know, so sure, yeah, yeah, uh yeah. So ICP
then of course fucking just immediately turns on these dudes and spray paints giants sil
this is this is okay for how goofy this angle is? This is a
very evil heel turn here. It is crazy evil. Yeah, you're right,
like this is like a This is like a These guys are probably gonna
be the top heels level of evil. How much should they do here?
Yeah? So, like, yeah, the ref gets distracted by Violent J
getting bumped. The headbangers fucking roll up Golga, and then Violent J spray's
Kurgan in his eyes with spray paint aerosolt. It's an aerosol cane. Oh
is that what it is? Okay? Yeah? You so they spray his
fucking eyes. The ICP and the headbangers are now stomping out Golga. I'm
having a fucking conniption because I'm sad. Don't stop out Golga. He's ugly
as ship. That's John. He's twenty four. His face is so fucked
up though you don't want to see under the mask. He's got so many
kids. Help. They spray paint the Giant Silva's eyes and then Giant Silva
is Andre in the road except on the except on the outside, like crazy
looking dude. The way they hung this dude up was nuts. The eyes
Andre, the rope nuts, Like this is so evil. This is also
evil. Kurgan fucking gets his he's a spray and then he's up there like
Jesus, I said, wow, this is crazy looking. Yeah, and
then they spray paint Luna Mashan's eyes and then they just start fucking chopping her
hair off. Yeah, Luna's is crazy because like she sells this so well,
like she's just so well. Yeah, yeah it looks it's it's like
when it gets to Luna, it's like legit, like wow, what the
fuck this is mean ship, Like wow, these guys are the fucking meanest
dudes I've ever seen. Yeah, they they chop her hair off, they
spray paint their eyes. They're stopping out all the boys the way that you
have to see how they spray paint these dudes's eyes. They legit take this
hand and they put they should got icyp o the back like wo style that
was so that'd be sick, No, Tony. Instead they're they're fucking putting
the whole of the spray cane up to their eyes make sure they don't miss.
Yeah, oh shit, I guess I'm not. Maybe in the bag
that said listen, you have to make sure this doesn't miss because it looks
stupid. So they took it very literally. Oh well, yeah, so
Mash says, this is what you call new headbanger attitude. There's no wrong
way, no right way, there's only the head banger way. And now
it's now it's our turn to kick a little ass. We've been sucking for
a minute. Yeah, we stink. And then the ICP and the headbangers
all leave, all four of them, carrying parts of Luna's hair. There's
a lot of hair. That's where the power of the live in that hair.
Shit, it'll become the ship. Did she had braids? Crazy?
They chopped all her ship off? Yeah, so like they the spray painting
silver and put them in the ropes and the Kurgan thing. But yeah,
the lunar part was where it went from like oh ship to oh shit,
Yeah, I mean, I gotta give it up for Luna's performance here,
it was. It was genuinely awesome, upsetting. Yeah, Yeah, it
was like, wow, good ship. Yeah, so there you go,
there's your first swerve of the The worst part about this the idit. He's
probably have to ditch the theme song right because ICP owns it. That's how
I would have done it, So you can't get you can't have that song
anymore. But yeah, we don't want to hear these dudes, you know
what the fuck I imagine? Also, whatever they just did, the Luna
does not measure up to the comeback that they get on the odd of the
fucking ICP and the Adventus. Yeah, probably he's probably losing again very soon.
So we go to a pre tape. Kine has arrived a couple of
weeks ago and he's going aim ship on everyone. Dude, Yeah, what
the fuck is this they showed? They show a video footage from a few
weeks ago, Kane arriving and then beating everyone's ass and his JR. He's
a lost shoal, he doesn't know right from wrong. It's showing Kane Kane.
So you're telling me Kine's instincts wrestling moves. Yeah, Kane's instincts has
a lost soul, trying to figure out where he belonged to this world is
to one become a wrestler, showed slam dudes and then hype them on fire.
Tane's instincts say that he should eat very well and train very hard and
be the buffest, most ripped dude alive. Yeah, dude, he's doing
pretty well. He's he's outside going home in his gearney. He's goozling a
dude. And then the cops show up and Kan just leaves. This is
Paul Bear's fault. Maybe it's like UFC, like Caine did his angle,
and you can't stay to watch the rest of the show. You have to
go. Yeah, get out of here. Man, we don't know you
didn't buy a ticket. You're a JIBBRONI. So now it's time for Blue
Blazer versus Steve Blackman. This is not Owen Hart. No, absolutely not,
and it isn't you can tell by the nose. That's what they fucking
say. While this is Oh, it's a blue Blazer. Jr. Said
you know that joeen Hart, and Lalla says, okay, so what if
it is? Oh, oh shit, all right, damn, I don't
know anyone back tell me what I say that? Yeah, I guess I
don't know why. I'm sure uphut about. Just to be honest with you,
he's like Al Green with the mask, that's own Art, that's all
Green. At least they changed his name. I'm all green mask. All
right, So Blue Blazer has been making Steve Blackman's life a living hell,
just like he's a lot of soul. He's they put this in the Blue
Blazer running in on Steve Blackman, just holy ship. And then one week
it's own Heart and Blue Blazer, who is a black Man? Now all
of a sudden and jars are I guess that's not own Hard? Which one
of these guys is supposed to be own Hart? What what am I supposed
to think? What is going on here? Who say? What? If
Heart? I don't know? It doesn't matter, Yes, I don't like
being locked. Yeah, that's the whole good. It doesn't matter like Hard.
Okay, Now all right, we get into the match. Steve Blackman
bumps Blue Blazer and then he immediately powders and says whoa And so Steve Blackman
it's a kick combo. Then missus an elbow drop that allows Blue Blazer to
hit Insigiary. That's gotta be all hard and runs in a circle with the
cap with theatrics. So Blue Blazer locked in a Dragon Sleeper. Black Man
backs him into the corner. That's the one heart for sure, that's the
one hard dragon Sleeper. Not only is that tiny, but Blue Blazer then
locks in the Sharp Shooter. Owen Hart created that. I actually really liked
black Man's reversal of the Dragon Sleeper. He legit walked upside down to push
him into the corner. He hit his head off the turn buck. The
Dragon Sleeper hurt more brother. So Blue Blades are locks in the Sharp Shooter.
But black Man gets to the ropes and Jim Ross says, you're not
owing hard, you know, no, I look closer, I'm not I'm
not sure that jowing. I'm trying to guess myself here. That may not
be Owen. He has a mustache, that's why. Well Waller says that
it doesn't sound like owing to you, and Jesus wall that nose is average
sized, and Owens isn't. Oh ship all right, I know you're locked
in like that. You know it doesn't fucking matter. I guess who cares?
I mean, like if it was own hard if it's not, it
changes here. Good, good question. So Blue Blazer blocks a drop kick
and then goes to the ropes and taunts and scrims. Whoo, dude,
that might be own Heart who gives a ship. I don't understand. It's
not for you, It's not supposed to be. It's the fans, all
right, Just like, do we just take both these guys off the tail
or something? All right? Shut the funk up? Oh dang, okay,
Jesus Christ, go on the fucking match. Damn calling a freaking match,
dude, give me hot Steve Blackman. It's a flying shoulder tackle and
then the bicycle kick and he wins. That's yeah, hell Steve Blackman that
says he's gonna unmask the Blue Blazer and prove to everybody this is Owen Hart,
who gives a shame. Really he can't take a mask off. Just
fucking endo, this bleak. You're wasting my damn time. What about Steve's
got a concussion coming with the fuck so so Owen Hart blue Blazers in the
ring. Steve Blackman's going to unmask him Owen Hart. Owen Heart then runs
down in his fucking Sunday's best. He's got to take his Sunday school in
the morning. Uh. And he runs down here and Chop blocks this ship
out of Steve Black. He takes his fucking legout crazy and then the Blue
Blazer runs up the ramp cape style and the crowd is shedding nugget at Owen
and Owen also runs up there ramp holding his ears. I guess segment over
is that whatever it doesn't anyways, Stone Cold Steve Austin shows footage of Steve
Austin at a house show in San Jose. He claps in the ring because
he has concussed crazy and they told him you need to work a weirdness all
tickets his head. Yeah, I mean, what we're gonna Pullstone Call?
We got you? How many people? We got a refund? Dude?
We got fucking road dog on this ship there. Get the fuck out there,
man. Yeah, and Jared says we'll go to the medical center in
a little later at night and ask him about his condition and his future.
So looking grim for old Stone Cold here, man, I mean, but
what I want to know is who's under that blue Blazer mask? Me too,
you don't. So it shows HBK talking to Vince backstage and he's just
putting all the theatrics into this one. Dude. Yeah, hooplog crazy with
the arms and they're argus seemingly kind of you know, have a little dispute
there. But Vince goes in his office and HBK walks away because of course,
you know that Vince just hired a guy that he was gonna disagree with
forever. Yes, this was a good idea. Raw is brought to you
by Burger King. Get your Burger's worth, folks, if you ask us,
it just tastes better. That wasn't even part of that was just real
shit like j Burger thing like that nobody, God damn it. And by
Nuka put it to the test for an unexpectedly close shave. Oh use it
on my testicles and casual syntech the actor lubricant. I used it also on
my god. I could go for Burger King, Oh yeah, and nukle
my balls King Browling Edge versus Dlo Brown and Mark Henry is up next Tag
team action here on Raw WrestleMania two thousand odds. Mas Uh the Bride's entrance.
I mean, I'm sure we talked about before. What a fucking what
an unbelievable entrance. This is they live a gothic lifestyle. What the fuck
does that mean? I don't know, I don't know, I don't know,
I don't understand anything. Is that like metrosexual? He says, that's
like an alternative lifestyle. Yeah, no dip ship. So Mark Henry is
in the middle of a sexual harassment lawsuit with China. Yes, and j
R. Said, is that Mark Henry is trying to reason with China to
get that lawsuit dropped by inviting her on a dinner date with no sex.
Yeah. Mark Henry says, China, I would like to take you to
dinner, no sex. That's it. And Lawler says, oh, that's
poetry. You know, the poetry right after it was beautiful if you asked
me, Mark Henry is just like sexual chocolate. So I guess that's about
to start here. Yeah, that has to Yeah, that's this is fucking
insane. Yeah, I mean, yeah, the fuck is going on here.
So Edge does the head scissors takedown that is lost to time here.
That needed a gut one, yeah, and then goes up over and then
yeah, I love that move. And then he gets a drop kick that
Delo takes the craziest bump for he takes it and then just falls backwards.
Woof, there's a bump meister in this one. Actually, Gang Grow and
Edge hit a double DDT out of the corner on del which I'm not sure
I've ever seen before. That was sick as fuck. Like Edge and Gangrel
were actually doing a lot of tag movies off the middle rope, like talking
about the double Yeah, the one in the corner off the middle school.
That was awesome. Delo hits Edge with the running power bomb out of the
corner and then instead of pinning, goes to the corner and start taunting to
the ground. Dude, I thought he was going up for like the frog
splash, but no, he just he goes on the second rope and it
just cuts to a bunch of dudes flipping them off. Mark Henry hits a
power slam, Delo goes up top. Delo goes for a swanton momb misses
for a double down, crazy flipping sent on that he misses on. I
was like, wow, this is like this much as fun as Helle.
Then Gang Grow Mark Henry come in very awkwardly off the double down hot tag
Mark Henry literally stands in front of Edge and Gangrel and then Gang Girl comes
in. He's like, back up, fuck off. Yeahf JR. Says,
you know that gothic lifestyle day. You know, I didn't grow up
in Oklahoma run a lot of folks with a gothic lifestyles, and I was
aware of I gotta I gotta research that. Was it such a mystery here
because he would like to join. I would like to be gothic too.
Yeah, I want to paint my lips and my ass. You're that gothic
for you? So Gang Girl hits a takedown. That a back body drop.
Now everybody gets in the ring here, Gangrown, Edge throw Delo and
Mark Henry into the middle for a meeting of the mines. Edge hits a
death defying leap over the top on de Loo. That's a house show,
Mark Henry. Mark Henry then throws Gang Girl into the air as China comes
out on the ramp. This is a very ramp heavy show. I'll tell
you that it is. You're right, they definitely utilize the ramp. A
ton the top of the ramp. Yeah. Mark Henry then looks at the
ramp and Gang Grel rolls up Mark Henry for the win Universe mode style.
Dude. Yeah, Henry yells where you been? He's got a big smile
on his face, and then Gangirl rolls up Mark Henry wins. Henry doesn't
give a fuck. He stands back up, smiling at China and Dealer's pants.
Yeah, he's grinning crazy, and Dealer's like, what the fuck is
wrong with you? I don't give a fuck about this. Get your mind
it in the fucking game. And then China has the mic as she says,
okay, Mark, I was like damn and I was like, oh,
his name is Mark Henry. China then says, yes, I'll go
on the date. So I guess she's dropping this sexual harassment lawsuit against Mark
Henry. And this is a good thing that everyone's happy about. And Jr.
Says, well, one guy that isn't happy at Stone Coast Steve Auston.
He was ahead with a shovel. He vomited, shitting pish. Yeah,
dude, Henry rolls around on the canvas after trying to says she'll go
on the date with him, like he just won the match. He's hugging
d Loo. He tries to jump on Delo, and Delo pushes Hi away
and starts selling his back because he's fat, and Henry leaves the ring and
runs up the ramp. I don't know where he was going. Okay,
Mark, so he got to a pre tape. It goes to Stone Cold
Steve Austin at the doctor's office, local medical facility. Please, oh yes,
of course Stone Cold is laying in bed. What was this shirt he
had on? That logo is like, was it Texas with a middle finger?
It was the unofficial state bird. That is so fun. I g's
what I said, dude, we should get that made for the Texas show
a deadlock. That would be awesome. Yeah, that would be cool.
Steve Austin, by the way, can we just he's at the daughter's office
on the bed and a T shirt with watch and rings still on and everything.
Well he's got his socks off. You know who your feet. We
gotta gotta augment your toes. Stone Cold says, show what's next year?
You guys kept me up all night. You've been running test just getting old
man. And the doctor said, mister Austin, you had a concussion,
and I just said, well, hell yeah, dandy got hitting head with
a shovel. Oh man, I don't know. There's something very funny about
every time they go back to this. Well, you know, Steve Austin
was hit in the head with a shovel, which is real and true.
We saw it on the show. It is I mean, that's a what
a how come that never became anyone's signature weapon, because that's a pretty awesome
weapon. I actually concussive Austin, that would be nuts. If that's the
case, maybe you're right. Well the doctor says, you have a serious
concussion here, dude, brother, he's all go get please take the medication
and get a good night's sleep and you'll be out of here in the morning.
And Austin says, I get some sleep and I get my ash out
of here. And Doc says, you know you gotta take a couple weeks
off, you know you gotta. And I says, well, I have
a lot to do with my damn schedule. You need to talk to someone
else about that, you know. I need to do what I gotta do.
And a nurse says, mister Austin, remember your blood pressure. Austin
says, you're damn right, I remember it. Yeah, is making me
Eapy Hank show. So Austin takes the medication. He says, they're gonna
make me sleep, and Dox says, please remember a couple weeks off,
and I says, all right, you're starting to piss me off. Will
you leave me alone? Like just not even like fired up Stone Cold,
You're starting to piss me off A shovel. Well, JR says JR.
I guess somehow has direct contact the Stone Cold here. It doesn't look like
Austin as an earpiece or anything. I don't understand how real. I never
understood this. JR. Just starts talking and it to assume that Austin and
all the nurses can hear. Yeah. I don't understand how this technology works,
but it does. I like it. I like it. I wish
we had this technology. Yeah, it's awesome. I don't think anyone has
this technology now. It doesn't exist. It's made up. But I don't
know how this ever worked well. JR said, well, how do you
feel, Steve? And I said how do I feel? He starts getting
fired up. Now it feels like I got hit in the head on a
damn shovel. Yeah, it don't take first. I'm hearing you this.
It don't take a rocket scientist to watch a TV set and see that.
You damn well, bet I'm gonna get my payback in Jim, You damn
right. As soon as I get my ash out of here tomorrow, I'll
figure out exactly what I'm gonna do. What Undertaker and Paul Barret are gonna
have hell to pay. And the nurse says, we gotta get you to
calm down. I'd like to calm down a little hot And that's the end
of that part of the day. It's funny because every time I want to
start talking, it's like crazy, the j R's voice radmly coming in and
saying, how do you feel, Steve? I feel you can hear him
his nuts, like just regular conversation with his nurse. How do you finish,
Steve? How do you feel, Steve stunt meal like shit off?
None of the nurses look or anything like I'd be like, who the fuck
said? Where'd that fucking come from? It's only Austin can hear j R.
Like the camera, it's Jared holding the camera. Hey, Steve here,
So we have the JVC Kaboom Box presents the JVC kaboom of the week.
I wonder what it is Undertaker hit Steve Austin in the head with the
shovel. Oh shit, what the fuck hit me? Want a damn shove
on Ignausia? Should I take this medication? I get my ass out of
here sleepy style. Yeah, that's right, sir, Get the fuck away
from me, do so. HBK is talking to Billy Gunn road Dog and
x Pot and they all got the theatrics going crazy. Yeah, they're and
they're all very friendly and happy to see each other like they always are,
the DX and the Shawn Michaels. They're fucking very very friendly. Well,
now it's signed for WWF's gold Dust versus Marvelous Mark Merrow, and this is
a hot angle, James. There's a lot of intertwining stories there. Yeah.
Yeah, it tappened last week on Heat or last night. Sorry,
last night on Heat, Jacqueline accidentally tripped Mark Merrow, leading to Bossman hitting
the Bossman, slam on Mark Merrow and winning, and Mark Merrow had enough.
He fired Jacqueline as I guess his manager. You're fucking fired. Guy
like me had never fired Jacqueline. Wow, I mean see come in the
ring and punched me in the head in the middle of the mask. You'd
be like, dude, understandable, Yeah, yeah, it must have done
something. And also at the same time, gold Dust is having issues with
his estranged wife, Terry Ronalds, who was pregnant with somebody's baby, not
Valvenushes, but somebody's baby. So to two women heavy angles here, I
guess three the Mark Henry one. That's going on here where everybody's having woman
problems here and those women be shopping. You know, that's fucking what I
hear here? Yeah, Merrow has had more women trouble than you. King
Ah. Tell of a match up, man, hell of a match up
here? Oh yeah. They put the fucking crazy crowd sounds in for this
one. Boys, this come on, you know what do you mean?
This is all natural? Gold does hit a hot shot off the top rope
here on Mark Merrow, and the crowd audibly explodes without moving. It was
the craziest reaction to any move I've heard tonight. I said, wow,
dude, I mean, they're fired the fuck of this. Gold dusn't Mark
Marrow two of the top WF stars in the business, and they're getting millions
of gold Dust. Yeah, that's right, dude. Ohio loves gold Dust.
I tell you what they hate Michigan. They hate fucking Michigan. Und
So, like you mentioned, gold Dust has been having problems with Terry Runnelds.
Yes, that's Terry Runnolds comes out here and Jerry Lawler says, wait
a minute, she's not pregnant. When you fucking stop killing an angles,
Jesus, you know how a baby works. It takes nine munch you dumb
ass. What the fuck is wrong with you? This show stinks. I
don't have to double throttle you man. Stop you shut the fuck down,
and you shut up, double bosh, maggots eight minutes. What are we
doing? Fucking stop here, shut the fuck up. Go out for God's
shake. I will uh yeah, Marror hits across body. Jr. Says,
oh to pace quickens here if anybody cares, Actually the crowd is going
nuts for they're now chanting. Take it off to Terry ronalds if anybody cares,
uh, gold does hits a scoop, slim a marrow, and then
Jacqueline comes down the ringside. Gold Dust does nine punches in the corner,
does the and then hits the tenth and then loads them up for Shattered Dreams.
But then Terry Ronalds gets on the apron to distract the ref and Jacqueline
slides into the ring behind gold Dust and hits him with a low blow and
then her teddies fall out. I don't know if you for this. Crazy
Ty's falling, and the crowd goes first gold The crowd goes fucking bonkers.
Then Terry gets in the ring, kicks gold Dust, and then hits Shattered
Dreams on Marrow. It is now a disqualification, as Jacqueline and Terry now
high five and leave together. Which is I believe the beginning of PMS.
Is he one of those contacts coming up soon? Yeah? I guess so.
Wf's gold Dust, w S Meat and Marvelous Mark Merrow, and they're
all playing second fiddle to Jackie and Terry. Yes, Jackie and Terry are
the stars of this angle. I guess Ryan Shamrock eventually joins the Pretty Mean
Sisters at some point, but yeah, I don't I don't remember that.
Yeah, PMS gains a love slave named Meat because he was nothing more than
a piece of meat in May, and then they brought in Ryan Shamrock,
who had been spurned by the womanizing Valvenus, but she left both the stable
and the w F and the fall months and then the three women used Meat
for his body, forcing him to have sex with them, and then they
would force him to do their bidding and wears of tight underwear about the beautiful
people and cute ki because that's what I heard you. I didn't know about
any of this. Year. Tension began to grow between the two women as
Terry in storyline exhausted Meat with hours of sex before his matches and then berated
her fatigued lover when he lacked the energy to win matches, and then Jacqueline
left the stable after Terry forced Meat to kiss her feet. On August one
episode of Sunday Night Heat, that's it. Meat left, Yeah, meets
and then Meats gone. He goes to w c W as the alien dude.
I didn't know about this, What the fuck? Yeah, he was
X and then he couldn't wrestle. He was just like he was. They
were just sucking them and that was you know, he was coming crazy and
like doing his thing and like they're like, man, not enough, damn
bros. Because because he'll come get out. They boss would come took him
to the room the embalming. Ah, this makes sense. That's great,
Great, We're gonna kill somebody you like that one, huh. So we
go to a pre tape. We are back to Stone called Steve Austin in
the local medical facility, and then this is live. This is a this
is a live pre tape, which is this is the only time it can
happens in the w w L. So we got back to Steve Austin and
the nurse wants an autograph. Austin says, I I thought we were through
with all these test nurse and nurse says, we all just want to see
if I get your autographing, Austin signing it, and JR. Chimes in
again, Hey hey, Steve, Steve, what about just buried match?
Steve Well, Austin gets a fucking pissed what the hell you talking about Bury?
That son of a bitch won't make it a bury live match. When
I get my hands on Paul Barr and the Undertaker, you cost me the
w a WF Championship and blasted me and my damn head with a shovel,
You son of a bitch. She got hell to pay well. The nurse
tries to calm him down, says, mister Austin, you really gotta calm
down. Try to get some sleep here and says I'm trying. You're gonna
have to give me more than medication. You got me all fired up asking
me stupid questions, and the nurse turns the light off and the light it's
dark in the room. Now Austin's trying to sleep and Jr. Says,
well, get you next to stone cold. What the hey, Steve,
one more question? Want you like that? I got a question? Your
bigger from it up Blazers. It doesn't matter who. Nobody cares. Austin
is coming into the w w F. What do you think about? P
M. S J. I'm gonna kill you, dude. During the during
the Austin dig, you have to go back and listen to that. There's
like doctor They have like doctor noises in the background, you know, like
humming noises of them talking. They page and I swear that I heard this.
It was like a It was sounded like butt head from be I swear
to fucking got They say, doctor Beavis, please come to emergency. God's
voice, I swear that's why I was. I gott to rewatch that.
I hope it's like probably like an interest some thing, you know. He's
tapped into that culture, that ship. So our Hurst pulls up and Jerry
Lawler says, hey, what's that? Jerry says, the fuck is that?
And then Jerry loll the proceeds and say that for the next thirty minutes,
because like, who cares what the fuck is? You don't know what
a hearse even is. I can't spell it. H O R S horse
a horse a horse. They do an exterior shadow hospital and like once they
show the hearse for like one second, then they cut the black commercial.
I don't know, Jerry, the horse is here? Oh that's not a
horse. Fucking whatever. Then w W f rewind brought to you by Glover.
Gotta Love the Glove. Some reason it's classified as an N sixty four
Sports game. Is that right on the when it shows the rock Bottom in
your House thing? Yeah, it shows Glover in the top left and on
the right. It's in sixty four sports the sports. Maybe there's a tournament
for it. No, I don't, I don't get it. Fucking whatever,
fucking Glover. I love the glove. Steve Austin hits the stunner on
the Rock and Ken Shamrock pulls his leg out. I wonder what happens after
that he gets hitting the on the show. So now it is time for
the longest matchup all the time. It is time for Ken Shamrock versus Big
boss Man versus Mankind for the hardcore title. So Mankind's hardcore champ. Ken
Shamrock is in on a continental champ. Big boss Man is, he's a
big ball, He's the champion of Yeah, was given the hardcore title like
two weeks before this, So like this is still pretty new. Ye like
a reward getting kid after he got screwed out Deadly Games. This is it?
Yeah? Yeah, Well, you know in Deadly Game they were teasing
that they were helping Mankind Tony, but they were Now there's a swerve.
Oh my gosh, a swerve. I never saw a swerve before, never
seen it. Well, Big boss Man and Ken Shamrock team up on Mankind.
If you can block you that one, how could they? Hell?
Big Boss Man is just fucking around with the crowd and they are on his
ass in this match. Dude, there's a dude at one point where he
turns to the crowd and he's like doing like full throttle crotch shops at him.
It's unbelievable, bitch doing it to him. Crazy Mankind fights back.
He hits a line on each dude, takes Shamrock to the outside and starts
kicking his ass. Now, man, they would do this spot here what
feels like five hundred more times over the next eight minutes. They legit like,
yeah, he'll cut them off and then they'll take him. They'll little
run it back, go outside, fight outside, come back in. Mankind's
up, over and fucking over. There was four different times where I was
like, all right, this is fucking this yeah, and then it wasn't,
like what the fuck. At one point, boss manvers Mankind for a
two, and Bossman is so outraged that the referee did not count three that
he rushes them into the corner, traps them, and then fucking slobbers all
over his face. It's disgusting. This Okay, So this match is legit
like eight minutes long. It felt like eighteen. It felt which is nuts.
Like eight is like a great time for a match to really you get
some a chance to like spread your legs in the mess Gimmick match two.
Yeah, it's like a good time. This felt like I've never seen a
longer eight minute match than this. I don't think I was definitely up there.
You mentioned it before the pod, but like they hadn't figured out this
hardcore shit yet, so like they just took it as all right, there's
no rules to like just kick his ass the whole time. Yeah, they
were like exploring what heart like the hardcore title even really meant, you know,
yeah, yeah, I think it's supposed to be like the ft W
title. So, uh, Mankind takes Shamrock up the ramp, Boss tries
to chase a Mankind throws Shamrock and the boss man and this is where Jerry
Lawler starts going off about the hearse dude. I couldn't even write down the
amount of times that he goes over this, but he legit. Like they'll
talk about the match, talking about the match, and Lawler will saying,
all right, so like did you see it was like a hurst don't understand
what that means because Jim Ross is not selling this ship out of it.
I think I saw a hearst pull up. Jim Ross is and Darry goes
into Shamrock and boss Man, Hey, you know the hearse pulled up?
Yeah, I mean there's an issue you're should we've be concerned about this.
I don't know what the fuck you're talking about, hers Hurst it watch you
rehearse the lines on Jesus. Yeah. At one point, he says,
you know what a hearst at a medical center means, right, and Jim
says yeah and says no, apparently you don't. You know you know who
rides who drives a hearse right? Well? The Undertaker. Yeah, I
don't get it. Boss Man is using the night stick on Mankind as Shamrock
holds them. Mankind then pulls a broom from under the ring and starts kicking
their ass with this broom. Dude, he breaks it over SHAMROCK's back.
He hits the Bossman in the throat with it. Mankind being such a like
a good hardcore guy, knowing that he couldn't break it on his back,
so he used the ramp to break it. Is like that was super smart.
It's yeah, it's like it. That's that's like so high IQ for
such a nothing spot like Mankind is. I mean, Mick is all time
great the greatest. Yeah. Uh. They start fighting by the announced table
and there's this dude. Oh my god, they're fight last announcedail. This
ship was so fucking funny. There's this dude with his full pack in his
lip and they're fighting and he just goes woo. Everybody, remember that this
is wrestling. That guy the fucking full pack in his lip watching wrestling.
That is what wrestling is. Never forget that time life, dude. There's
also another fan when they were over here because boss Man like hits Mankind in
the face with a little fan that was on the announced table. Shamrock hits
Mankind in the head with Coca cola. And then somebody, I think it
was at Shamrock yells, hey, Shamrock, you're a jobbird. Hey fuck
you? What do you want the jobs? Want to come out here or
something? Yeah, you want to get a jump job? Dude? Maybe
it what is the jobs card? Oh it could have been Bob you get
jobbered. So at this point I wrote down this is, without a doubt,
the longest match I've ever seen. It's fucking forever, and there's more.
They get back in the ring. Mankind is now back on top.
He hits Shamrock with a chair double arm ddt onto a chair to boss Man
no cover. The referee is triple counting. What the fuck is this?
Yeah? Then uh Mankind goes to the outside and throws Shamrock into the steps.
Why. Mankind then grabs a sock from the and he puts it on,
and then he puts mister Socco in SHAMROCK's throat. Bossman attacks Mankind.
They get back in the room. Manki gets mister Soko and boss Man's throats
Shamrock Chop blocks Mankind. There's still more to this match here. The belly
to bellies him on the chair. Of course, the job squad is now
here. They've jumped up barricade. How could this match get any worse?
The crowd all have the little Al snow Head thing in there. Al SnO
comes in, he hits Shamrock with head. Yeah, because Shamrock has Mankind
in the ankle lock, Bob Holly and two Cold Scorpion are fucking up the
boss Man on the floor. Al SnO and Shamrock in the head with head
and Mankind wins. Mankind pins him. He retains the title and then Shamrock
chases Mankind up the ramp as he goes towards Vincent's Shane and then throws him
into set, kicks his ass, and then dog walks into the Would both
be the shit out of mankind to the back? Yeah, because Job Squad's
left through the crowd. I don't know why. I guess they didn't want
to go up the way of Vincent Shane. But dude, yeah, I
mean, like you said, it couldn't have been more than an eight minute
match, right, And it felt like for I mean, if you asked
me, like I know, it was like around eight. If you asked
me legit, I would have thought I was like at least twenty I'm not
kidding. It was a long match, yeah, and like, yeah,
complete, just fucking nothing, And I had to the Job Squad was the
endgame for this match. That's all this match was happening for, for the
Job Squad to get over. Yeah. I wish, I wish I plus
tended looking back on it, but I didn't, And I watched the whole
thing because a hardcore match is usually a fun part of the show. That's
what I thought. I was like, Oh, they're gonna be there's gonna
be some here. Yeah. No, there wasn't one spot to call back
to other than head did see Now what the fuck big tails? So we
got to a pre tape. We are back to the medical center, and
now there is just a fucking hearse, just literally sitting here in front of
the medical center. What what hey, Jerry, you see that? I
don't know what the fuck that is. I mean, it could be anything
when you think about it. You know what's you know what's fucking hilarious about
this is that it cuts from the al snow thing. Yeah, it cuts
to the medical center where you can't even tell us that a medical is there.
It's just a hearse, a huge hearse to take him the full frame,
and then it hard cuts to the room and Undertaker is smothering Steve Austin
to death in the room. Oh god, dude, just in the middle
of the show, big ass Undertaker is full of mounting stone coat on a
hospital bed and he has a pillow on his face. He's killing him,
and fucking Paul bear'st kill him. This was the funniest hard cut of all
time. Hers straight. The Undertaker's bothering Steve Bostin in the dark, in
the dark at Where's everybody had all the fucking hospital people left. So Austin
rolls out of bed, Undertaker starts beating the ship out of him. Paul
Bear now has an ether rat in Austin's face, and Austin passes out.
He stops fucking fighting back, and Taker says, yeah, not so tough.
Now are you in the hospital? I see Austin's feet. This is
fucked ump water. His feet out, and Taker says, there's no hurry
now, you see, boy, this is where you get off. This
is insane. This is your last ride. Oh shit, shit, that's
his fucking move. Eventually he does it. And then before they got the
commercial, Undertaker drags Stone Cold out by his ankles all across the hospital floor,
which in my mind he had. He drags him not only just out
of this room, through the entirety of the hospital. We don't know what
floor's on. Then out the front door with the biggest man ever take his
pants off. They drag his So we go to the commercial. We come
back from commercial, Austin has been loaded up into the back of the hearse
and then this is even funnier. Undertaker and Paul Bear are driving the herse.
I thought they'd have like a guy. Oh no, yeah, Albert
is the guy. He's driving, He's the driver and they drive away from
the hospital. Are you fucking crazy, buddy? What the security or something?
Man? They just let this happen. This was like, this is
more egregious than like at least in terrifier in the hospital. Like he kills
everybody, and we see you kill everybody. Undertaker doesn't hit one dude here.
Extra. Yeah, this is great because instead of calling San Jose local
bags always say hey, Stone coaches got dragged out of this. We have
a camera there. And he saw this was talking to him through the camera
earlier while and Jared got in the camera like, Hi, stop kid out
see Steve, can you give us some thoughts on Takers dragging you out of
hers works? Talks on ship? What's going through your mind? You're gonna
don't Cody, what do you figure there? This is Taker? You go
to what do you do with that coloriform rag? Taker? You're gonna we're
gonna bab him or here gonna bury him alive? Which I love. I
love all this because like the camera guy watches that happen and then he goes
outside and gets another like arching shot of the hearse driving away. What you
think, du Wayne Gill, It's gotta be two camera men because they have
the one on the outside and then one of the inside. No, no,
dude, he fucking sprinted out there and got the over arching shot.
Feel like ships chases after the Hurst. Dude, he probably he probably got
out there before they even got out there. He ran in front of him.
I'm sorry. Oh, Ship dude, I like Jr. Is like
directing him. Get your ass up there. You got to get the shot.
Get the shot. The b roll shave s what the fuck? Not
as funny as Ship? Yeah? Man, The slow shot of Taker dragging
Austin's corpse along the hospital floor. I wish they had shot him taken him
through the whole hospital and beating up people. Yeah, that awesome. Goddamn
Sorry, you had to get the forty five minute, dude. It had
been like wrestlming a revenge mode. You know, he had to beat up
the costumes. Ship Yeah. Had him punch one doctor at least, right,
like any Yeah, dodtor Pepper beat this, oh Draculus. Yeah,
she gets knocked out on runs and says, oh my god, doctor Beavis.
Well cool, so we Uh, we come back to the w w
F. We're not gonna do anything about what we just saw. We'll see
what happened, dude. Yeah, they stole they can die. The cameraman's
there, so we'll check back in with Steve in a little minute. Let's
see what Dwayne Gills got going on, Steve, that gets please, Let's
say what Rattlesnakes got going on. And you know, let's see what Dwayne
gil So we got Christian versus Duyane gil Dwayne Gill, of course was in
the Deadly Game. People know him most as Gilberg. He was the gilberg
More Light Heavyweight Champion Dwayne Gill Tournament. Yeah, of course, Duane.
We come back from commercial and the Brute is here again. Uh, this
is a light heavyweight title match, which is fucking insane. By the way.
They got Scuff Steve Auston here and then Steve Boston dying on in the
hearse and they just call this match normal. Yeah, you know, they
got Billy Kidnan versus Raymisterial Junior Eli Channel But sorry, I guess we'll rock
this one out. What the fuck? So Christian it's a reverse DDT and
picks du Wayne Gil off the mat at two. Come on, don't play
with your food. Yeah, don't do this, dude. Duane Gil misses
a splash in the corner and Christian kicks him in the air while he's on
top of the turn buckle and then gives him a gut buster to the knee.
It was actually pretty gnarly, it was. It was. It reminds
me of Stu Grayson's move, but it's reverse. That move is awesome.
Actually, yeah, I think it's cool too. He got it from Batman,
Is that right? Yeah, Bane's Bane the bag breaker. Yeah.
Christian rubs du Wayne Gill's head in the canvas and r hubbing her yells knock
it off, that, Dwayne Gill. So Christian throws Duane Gill out there,
and you know, the brude starts stomping him out, poor old shadshack
Dwayne Gill, and Lawler says, who do you think booked this? What?
I wish they cut the JR punching him in the face. So Christian
sets up the end prettier in the ring, but the job squad is back
and then attack the body. But the fuck you the job squad jump edging
Christian. Christian has a pin on du Wayne Gill, but the ref is
distracted. Scorpio just flings himself over the top of Lis sends it yeah,
just onto Christian. Dwayne Gil gets the pin. Du Wayne Gill is the
champion, all right, So first off, shout out Christian. He did
his very best to protect du Wayne Gill because the Scorpio came in hot off
that ship, and Christian was like, all right, I got you from
yeah wow yeah. So Cole Michael Cole meets du Wayne Gill on the ramp
and he says, this is gonta be the greatest upset and w a history,
and du Wayne Gill said, let me go, you shone on my
show Winter SHAMPI Pound Championships, grist for my life. I did it,
gosh, you know what. After that, I'm all in on Duane Gill.
That was dude. When he I did it, guys, I was
like, I fucking love this dude. Yeah, I'm all in, Like,
hey, we got a new lights awesome. Yeah, man, follow
that, Billy Kimmen and Raveisterios or no way, brother, You're gonna be
working here soon losing to this guy. So we got a pre tape.
It shows a Hearst backing up to amount of dirt. Hold on King,
Where is this? How? How? How the hell is our camera?
How was she? What is this? It's very dark? Yeah? Hurst
backs up into what I assume is a cemetery. I think they said right.
I guess maybe their house is just in the backyard, his cruel backyard.
Paul Barrett and Undertaker get out of the hearse and Paul Bart says,
uh, oh, this is the place, and take her drags Austin out
of the hearst. No shoes, They'll puts them on a pile of dirt,
and Paul Barrow says, oh, it needs to be a little deeper.
Uh so, I guess Undertaker he's got to put in the hard work.
He jumps into the grave and has a shovel and starts digging out the
grave because he said, you need more, you need more. Paul is
just talking st Austin, no big sean, mister Stone called Steve Austin laying
there on the cold weight ground. Who do you think you are this time
you cross the line? Yes you have. Austin wakes up and he grips
up Paul Bear. I thought Taker was gonna hit him. In the head
with a shovel again, which he should have, but instead he just grabs
a side headlock and chokes him until Paul Bearer does the fucking ether rag cheese.
This is bullshit, Ma, this is doing crazy. Yeah, man,
can't keep doing this, Ship, I think this might be cheese.
So Taker said, Austin bearing you alive? That's too good for you.
You embarrasses. What are we gonna do? And Taker said, I'll tell
you what we're gonna do. We're gonna embalm him. Hey what Yes,
we're gonna embalm him alive. Austin, You're gonna know what pain is.
And this is this is funny as ship. Baker says, how far is
the funeral home? It's like a fucking Buddy cop movie. The fuck?
And then they just load Austin back up into the hearst Dude, Okay,
who's filming this ship? Hello? Police say can you still hear me?
H? Hey, you signed a match contract to have a buried a live
match. You don't get paid if Austin dies. If you him alive,
you make no more fucking money. I don't care about money, I care
about death. Why are you wrestling? I don't know. I told you,
I don't get it. What else am I gonna do? People on
the street? This must be that gothic lifestyle. Hey, can you hear
me, Steve? What do you think about being at ball and just started
well shutting sids just gonna knock me out. I'm tired. I got dirt
in my feet. God damn j R. So anyway, Steve Austin is
probably gonna die. But here is the Godfather in the train. Dude,
this is wrestling is so fun? How does wrestling exist? I don't know.
This might be one of the craziest like show lineups ever. Like the
way this was produced. It goes from stone cold potentially being buried alive to
them saying we're just gonna kill him, to here comes the Godfather in his
hose, right yeah, like, hey, let's bury him. Now,
let's kill him. Okay, so we got a single match, dude,
whatever they were doing. Ten million people were watching this ship. So I
was watching. Hey, I'm not hey, I'm just you know, I'm
watching I'm doing things. This is like looking back now, it's crazy,
Like you guys said, it's insane, but like ten million, this is
like the most watched elevision show. I meantime we we we make it makes
sense to me. Hey, you know what I mean, Like I'm here
for whatever. You know that's sounds crazy. That's how my thought process is.
It's, you know, whatever they got this world. I guess they
live when you look at it, like just how it is, It's just
it's fucking nuts, sucking your life. God Father comes out with the hose
and Jared says when when she's inbombed all their bodily fluids there, they're shucked
right out of their body. And here comes Tigery saying with the hair on
the sideburn, I don't think that's bombing works either, just sucking everything out.
They're gonna suck him dry vacuum. The suck is fluid, suck.
Sing is the rock loosod here with Mark Barrow's outfit on the theme song is
pretty Beast and Boo is here throwing bo Carole Singer is the Godfather, So
I think might be dead. We got Godfather that is dead. We do
petion all cylinders here that Gothic lifestyle and people don't want the hose and this
is this is a fun up worry living. I'm telling me, who is
the blue Blazer? I don't want I don't know if I want to be
here anymore. The world. We got a job to do. Your should
know that Sean Marks is in control of everything. Any book. Fucking the
main event, that's the craziest part to this is fucked up? How did
xbox everything tell you get I believe all this inbombing ship but un event that
is so unbelievable flow out of his body. But you're showing a life out
of the WWF right now with just so we got Godfather versus Tiger a sing
we might we might get it. Oh that's well, that's always with Godfather.
It's always a mic getting Baboo's a beast. He's throwing rose pels all
over, Tiger ally singing. He gets in the ring, he's Tiger Ali
sing, puts his boot on Baboo's knee and he's cleaning his boot crazy style,
and Godfather says, all right, listen up, man, you got
your choice of fighting me and I will kick your ass or feast your eyes
on these buck guys bucko and fucking Tiger sings like he's thinking about because he
pulls the glasses down and looks at the hose. Godfather says, you have
any choice, need choice on one of these fine hoes for a small fee,
of course, and you get them for the whole night. It's finally
j R. J R. Has to say something here because Godfather is offering
Tiger Al. He's saying, pussy to get out of this match, and
Jr. Says, can you believe this on a night where Undertaker is gonna
Embalm also at saying, look, man, you gotta say something. I
mean you above the coming him a dick, I'm gonna get you. So
Godfather offers Tiger Ally, saying a match or a hoe. Steve Rego comes
out here and he says, hold on now, Sunshine. He goes all
right, Jared say, now that is a hard working man right there is
gonna die tonight. I mean that's your man that put you down. Yeah,
Steve. Steve Regan comes in in the jords and the hard hat,
flannel, all his regular construction site, all his regular wrestling. You're still
on underneath all this too, and he stops the ship. The Godfather with
Tiger Ali's saying, so, yeah, the gimmick is last week, Godfather,
I guess did the same thing the Regal, and Regal said, I
got screwed, and I don't trust him. You know, I know you
got a better better education than me, Tiger Ali sing, and could afford
more things than me. And I'm a normal work in, real man's man.
But don't trust him, all right, He said, this gimmick is
great, by the way, as anyone who ever asks, well, you
know, I'm just a regular hard working guy. It is the American dream.
Steve Eagle, Yeah, this is fucking crazy, man. Well,
he told Ali that if he needs to buy, you can definitely afford better
slappers than this, And then Tigery saying jumps Godfather Regal gets in. They're
both stomping his ass out, and then to just fucking make matters fucking worse,
Valvenus comes out to make the same. How did I don't know,
man, I think Russo was a big Valvenus guy. He was like super
into Like yeah, I think Valvis rising cock superstar come and superstar. Yeah,
hell yeah, man, goddamn yeah. So Godfather and fucking Valve get
up on Regal and Tigery sing. The refsent officials come out to break it
up because it's obviously a big brawl. They should be worried about Freak.
I'm worried about Valvenus Tiger Ay sing Godfather Stephen Rigo in Babboo. I'm not
worried about Steve Austin dying tonight. Well, he's in a different fucking town.
What do you want me to do? Drive out there, it's only
two hours away. I thought missioner Shawn Michael is gonna come make this a
tag match, but he doesn't. I did to Tony, but I guess
that's probably set up for next or heat. Dude, think fucking god that
he did not make this fucking match. Good lord, yeah, Wow.
So the Rock, Vince and Shane and HBKA are backstage and Rock is pissed
about HBK being the commissioner. It looks like they're talking with hands again,
a lot of theatrics here, and Vince walks off and Sean laughs and then
Sewn does the jerking offhand motion. Sean Michaels is then talking to Earl Hebner
throwing papers around and shit, Okay, I thought he was like he was
like showing Earl the script of the show, and then he threw it away
for his own scripts. But Jared said, I think got the rule book.
He threw away one rule book and here's another that Shawn's rule book.
I'm sure it was supposed to be the show format. I think so too,
j They're showing us the screw job, you know, like another foreshadowing.
Yeah, but it's not because he's gonna screw over Rex buck. Well.
Now it's time for the New Age Outlaws versus the Job Squad. Wow.
No, there's never been a combination of words I've wanted to hear less.
Well, the New Outlaws are the tag champs. Road Dog is wearing
an Ohio State versus Michigan Michigan suck shirt. Rod Dog does their whole stick
and all the college Buckeyes fans good nuts for this dude. They do they
do, and Billy gunn Gee's up the Ohio chance crazy the crowd. This
is like an Austin reaction to this match, and they don't do shit.
Yeah, you're right, man, audience is way different now. If you
try to do anything to do with college sports, he'd be like, what
the fuck is this dude talking about? Oh? I don't care about another,
but what the fuck is going on? Hell? You don't know.
So two Cone and Bob Holly are the two guys in the Match for the
Job squad. Bob Holly with the hair, Bob Holly with a lot of
fucking hair. Hollywood. Bob is going nuts with the Ohio State chants right
here, man, so loud. Yeah, it's like the most loud,
the most genuine reaction on the show. Yeah, man, they're really going
to town they I mean, even later down the line. Michigan sucks.
Michigan sucks. They're going crazy too. Cold and Billy Gunn have a great
exchange here in the middle here that Jr. Puts over. He puts over.
Scorpio's like one of the most underrated guys in the WF, which is
very true. Yeah, Scorpio hits the ropes old school style and then hits
a diving trouble in paradise. This shit looked awesome, dude. He it
looked like he rocked road Dog with it too. Yeah, it looked fantastic.
It did. Bob Holly comes in hits a clothesline on road Dog from
the corner meat hook style. Dude. I don't know if this was I
think it might have been before this where Bob Holly gets mother fin bomb by
Billy Gunn and on because he's right in front of the camera. Bob Holly
goes, ah shit, Jr. Says, I guess, I guess we
know what he thought of that. Mankind is now here with a leaf Blower't
get used to that for the next five minutes on the show. Yeah,
it's actually on too, which is very funny. It's on the whole time,
and it is the most honorable thing possible. It's like they have a
mic on it. He hits Billy Gunn in the head with the leaf flower
that's on, and that allows Scorpio to pin him and win the match.
He brings them with it. Jar says that was the leaf flower that Mankind
was gonna give Dad McMahon on heat. But I guess the devil man,
yeah, because that's why it was like gift wrapped. Yeah. So yeah,
Mankind brains them with the leaf flower, wins, and the crowd booze.
They do oh man, yes, because the outlaws are on the fucking
Ohio side. Man you keep what the fuck? Yeah, And then Mankind's
got the guy he's trying to baby face like, yeah, Wow, that's
that's a tough one. Man. That's a tough call. It's a tough
call. Yeah. Yeah, maybe you should have told the New Age Outlaws
to not come out in Ohio's Dyton Michigan shirts. Yeah, maybe not be
the baby face is against the baby faces that have been saving dudes all night.
Yeah, at the very least, that was definitely them call. I
would believe. I think so today. Probablyn' even tell anybody they were.
Boss Man and Shamrock are here and they're fucking up the job squad and the
Outlaw or with the Outlaws. Excuse me, the fucking leaf blower is just
on the ground going, dude. Now Shamrock has the leaf blower, he
is now leaf blowing me. Dude. This reminds me of like playing Dead
Rising two, like just grabbing like a leaf blower and just like blowing ship
away from me. That's it's funny as shit. A great game. Oh
yeah, dude, that game is awesome. Like, I don't think any
of the other Dead Rises got even close to that one. No, I
don't think so either. I don't even know if I played Dead Rising one,
but I played the I think I beat Dead Rising two. I love
that game, did you ever you play Dead Island? I did. I
don't think I'd like Dead Island as much. Did That was the first person
right much? It was. Yeah, they had made two. I think
they were working on another one or something, but yeah, no, I
wasn't. I don't like the idea of it. Yeah, Dead Rising two
is just under It's like Left for Dead two, Like you can make a
hundred of these. I don't know why, but this is the best one.
Yeah, what a wow? I haven't. Damn. That's a great
fucking game. I think could you co opt Dead Rising too? Or was
that Dead Rising three? I never co opted? If you could two?
Yeah, play those I did not. I played. I think they're awesome.
Dead Island maybe you were talking about yeah right, because that was like
one of the first next gin like they're like look at this, sure,
Yeah, but Dead Rising to Tony was like it was an arcade masterpiece.
Yeah, you like like it's maybe the last zombie game. I was like,
I love this fucking ship because like, yeah, you're in like a
mall and like a million zombies and you can put you can make the craziest
weapons ever to fuck these zombies up there. I remember that ship I never
played it, though I do remember people making like the craziest weapons. So
it's an unbelievablemount of zombies too. It is YEAHS sixty game, you're dominating
them. Yeah, you're you're mowing them down. It's sweet. I gotta
play that again. Actually, think about it. You can make the Darth
maul joint with the double chainsaws on the ends of it. Double chainsaw was
fine. And there was a fucking dirt bike I think too. Yeah,
there was. There's a go cart too. You can mowd fucking zombies down
on What a great fucking game. Back to the leaf blower, Shamrock is
leaf blowing man Connie hits him in the back with it. It's still running
crazy now. The referees are trying to break this up, but Shamrock chases
the ref away, not by trying to hit him with the leaf blower,
but by blowing air in his direction to give him away. Then Shamrock brains
Bob Holly with the leaf blower so hard that he knocks himself over. And
then Patterson, Briscoe and the Sarganslaughter all come to the ring and pat the
outlaws on the back and bring them to the back, which is what are
they doing? What they do with the aloes? They're trying to get Sean.
Michael's got a plan here. We got to a pre tape. Taker
and Paul Bart pull up to the crib with Austin and the hearse don't don't
tell me. Are they gonna go and through it? Embalming Austin alive?
A bunch of fun can call the cops. That's the room, dude,
Okay, yeah, So it comes back from a commercial. We're inside the
funeral home now with cameraman and Taker is carrying Austin into the funeral home and
Lawler Legit says exactly what James said. Oh my gosh, that's the embalming
room. Oh yeah. So Taker puts Austin down on this fucking table and
Paul Barrot says, this is this, This has got to be the best
idea you've ever had, and Taker says, you see Austin, you can't
tempt fate. Paul Bart puts something under his head and says, uh,
get his nasty beer smelling clothes off of them. So Paul Bart starts cutting
Austin's shirt off, and I guess JR. Knew they were going to commercial,
so we had to throw it to something, and all JR. Could
must up was, oh my god, oh my gosh. Definitely definitely take
magic right now. They said, you say, JR, oh my god,
we're back from commercial. Oh my god, don't what just happened?
And Taker says, Austin, I hope you can hear me. Well,
no fucking way, he's out you either them the damn man, but everybody
else should be able to hear him. Right, can you hear me?
What do you think it is? How you feeling? Their pal? Taker
says, because what you're about to experience is gonna be the worst imaginable pain
in horror that you could ever endure. And then Undertaker Tony, what does
Undertaker start saying? Here he goes, that's Timberlay. I don't know what
you said. He's got that big ass steak. He's got that big ass
embalming steak bombing him. He's drive with this. Give me the power.
I beg you also watch Chucky or something. I swear that's what he got
her. Yeah, damn, Bayat did. It's easy to understand. I'm
sorry Antony understood all it. He was watching Adam Sandler movie. Eric,
he does, Eric, I let you take her and phrases up the embalming
stick. Yeah, he put that thing up there, and I also said
he's still a timbalaid out and Paul BarreR looks concerned. Then the sound of
glass breaking is heard in the other room. Undertake the phrasiest crashing noise you
could convince me fell through the ceiling back shock Master Door's dirty guys. Papa
opens the door and the camera guy follows and his cane holding his like,
ah, I racked myself. So yeah, there's a big fucking boom in
the other room, and paula is like, he turns around, he does,
look what the it is? Then he like he peers to the window
somehow doesn't see anything. Can't hit that fucking on the walls. He threw
a cardboard box over himself. Metal gear stock was awesome. Oh nothing nothing,
Kane knocks like three times question mark. So yeah, Paul Beart sees
nothing in the window, turns around and then Cain fucking busts the door open,
crazy and fucking Paul bart goes running. Barbara Caine then goes after Taker.
He attacks him. Now Paul Barrett wants to finish the job, so
he picks up the embalming scissors to stop into a pair of scissors. It's
like stamp in the head. The doors arm grabs Berry goes well, Austin
is now awake. He blocks the scissors and then Austin Steve's gonna get you,
so Austin blocks it, pushes Paul Bear away and then drunkenly stumbles shoeless
out of the room. He slips on the floor and wattles gets out of
the does and then the Taker is getting choked out by Cane on the side.
And then somehow the camera gets fucking annihilated or something. Uh no,
that would be uh well, yeah, it's like uh Prometheus and Bob where
the dude runs into the camera by no, no, no, oh sure,
okay the camera I just got flustered. We can't assume it was Cane
and take your battle in and after I just want to put here from the
Observer November thirtieth, nineteen ninety eight. By the way, Raw had grown
to a five point four rating by the time Undertaker and Bearer arrived and carried
the unconscious Austin out of the hospital into a hearse and driven to a cemetery.
The rating dropped it noticeably every quarter until the overrun, losing nearly nine
hundred thousand viewers over the next forty five minutes. Wait what they didn't want
to see? Austin died? No, No nine, Almost a million people
tuned out because they didn't want to see this fucking angle here. No,
I don't believe that. There was like multiple owls Now appearances. Fu what
they said every time they came on every job squad fuck this. Every time
they kept the channel and it would go from Austin to al Snow, they'd
turn the channel. All right, I'll go, I'll turn it back.
We got that right, kidman match. We gotta watch real Cuick. The
overall rating for this role was a four point eighty six and Nitro did a
four point two four. Okay, well pretty those are both unbelievable numbers.
Yeah, by today's standards. Yeah, oh, by the today's standards.
Hell yeah, yeah, that's insane. I don't know the last time a
wrestling show has gotten anything near that, right, No, yeah, maybe
SmackDown when a debut on Fox. Oh maybe, yeah, that's probably true.
You're right, good shot. Uh so, now it is time for
the main event. Austin is fine, Uh who cares? Who cares?
Who gets the ship? You'll get the fuck who I don't get either.
It's time for I don't give a fuck fuck. It is time for the
Rock versus x POC WWF title on the line. This is where I find
out the x POC is European Champion. Yeah, European Champion. Rock comes
out here with Shamrock and boss Man HBK immediately comes out and says, every
single fucking person in this ring is going to the back right now. Fuck
yeah, man, I'm and I'm with that ship. Thank you, commissioners.
Fucking Sean Michael's the heartbreak Kitty XPO's made of its spot. Come on,
yeah, man, I thought Sean was gonna join commentary, but he
just sits near it. Yeah, you're right, he's just kind of around.
It's like game cut scene where they pull up a chair right next to
the yah. Yeah. So Rock pushes x POT to the corner to start
this match. After a lock up, he breaks x Pot hits a flying
closed line on Rock. Rock, of course, is caught off guard by
how quick the one two three kid is. Of course, Rocky sucks chance
going on. Uh, there's a sign that says, I'm any Rock is
closed fist punching x Pot because he's a bad guy. Earl Henderson, stop
closing, Earl Henry, Hey, come on, x Pot is chopping the
ship out of the Rock. Okay, chopping him a lot? Was there
a rib here? No? Well, I don't know, maybe someone his
titties. But Xpot is an underrated chopper. I feel like every time we
watch this guy chopp people, he's beating his shit out of him. They
were he was lighting them up. Rock crotches x Pot on the turnbuckle post
by bally to backing him straight into the turnbuckle Dick style. That was fucking
crazy. Rockton starts his heat he by karate chopping x pox trap and then
locks in a chin lick. This was my deadlock plus ten moment out a
night Vince and Shader out here on the ramp again. X Poc fights up,
hits a spinning heel kick for a double down. He's firing them off
crazy he does like I don't know if that's his finish right now or not,
because like he does the X factor eventually, but they don't even call
it that or but they sell that it's a move that he does at least,
but it doesn't have a name yet. He hits that spinning heel kick
for the double down, and JR gets so into it. He says,
cover them, Sean cover him, x Pot cover him. He fucking real
names him in the I was like, holy shit, I was like cover
from sewn. I was like, Damn must to be confused with Sean Michaels.
I was like Sean Woman only f x Pock then hits another spinning heel
kick on Rock for a two. Rock crawls over to the corner, and
I mean JR. Is putting in all time. He's selling the fuck out
of this, like this could be the end of the corporate champion. He
wants to see this so bad. Yeah, that's right. Rock crawls.
And that's something that's totally missing, is that, like, you know,
if there's a heel champion on top, you would want to see him lose,
you know what I mean, lose? Yeah, especially if he's an
asshole. Rock crawls over to the corner. Xpot hits the Bronco buster.
Fuck yeah. X Pot goes for another spinning heel kick, but Rock ducks
and hits a Samo and drop for a two. I think, you know,
I'm actually really impressed with how this is going. I think a lot
of it comes down to JR. Really just putting over everything here, especially
right here, Jed goes fucking nuts. So Rock's arguing with the ref.
The Rock turns around and gets hit with the X Factor, and JR is
losing cover him, beat him, beat McMahon's champion right now, and then
the Rock kicks out a two point JR yells, yeah, just really putting
this over. I mean, like having a guy like that is such a
tool, and JR was always one of the best at it. Yeah,
I I mean, if you wanted anything to get sold that, like you
thought maybe people were like not super in on JR. Fucking popping off about
a match is the best way to get somebody into something. It also helped
that. I think JR was a big like he was a big proponent of
the talent, so like he would like he signed most of the guys,
or at least he scouted most of the guys for the WWS around that time,
and scout don't think he scouted Xbox or anything or the Rose maybe,
but like having your commentator be that in tune with the actual day to day
of the business makes it easier for them to get into the show altogether,
which makes JR just a really good commentator. I think he gave him an
extra reason to care a little bit more. He's the fucking best so Xbox
pinz in for it too. JR. Putting an all time performance, rockets
a power slam, grabs a chair from the outside. No, HBK gets
in the ring and grabs the chair from the Rock. Thank God, thank
you that do the heartbreak kid all he fuck well. Vincent Shane come down
and Earl looks at him and tries to tell him that don't come in here,
And while his back is turned, HBK turns around and hits Xbox with
the chair. Son of a bitch. Study hit him fucking so hard with
the chair too, he brains them with it. I also want to point
out really quick that XPOC and Rock were really throwing some live ones in here.
This was like really good. There's something about there's something about that type
of wrestling, where like it's a guy that wants your spot and a guy
that wants to keep his spot. That like creates a very competitive match where
like I'm not gonna fucking you know what I mean, Like, if I'm
gonna give it to you, I'm gonna give it to you. And like
the other guy is thinking the same way, like I want your shit.
It's like I want to keep my shit. They're still protecting each other.
Don't get me wrong. It's not like he's shooting on him or anything,
but like it's just a snub. Well done match, I thought, But
yeah, so JR. You know, he's not fucking happy about this HBK
thing. Fuck. Rock then takes off the elbow pad and throws it on
Xbox, and he hits the corporate elbow. Dude, corporate elbow with crotch
chop theatrics he doesn't do like the leg. He doesn't cross chops and bends
them. He said, no, yeah, fucking Sean raises Rock's hands and
crotch chops the crowd. Billy gunn road Dog hit the ring. Dude Billy
Gun slid in. I was like, holy shit, Steve Corino. I
don't know why I thought that. I think, yeah, it was just
all I saw was here and I was like, no, Steve Corina I
was like, job. I was like, yeah, that was crazy.
Yeah, so Billy Gun and road Dogger here they're getting fucked up by Shamrock
and the boss Man. They're all fighting. Rock and Sean have left at
this point, which there's like an awkward part where like Rock, Vince,
Sean and Shane are on the like walking up the ramp and like the outlaws
are in the ring and they have Shamrock and Bossman outnumbered. But I guess
you know, Xbox was so fucked up that it didn't take much for Bossman
to bump them down again. But I was like, oh, this is
kind of awkward. And the final shot you see here is Rock, Vince,
Shane, and Sean doing four of the craziest crotch chops to end the
show. Dude, that's a legendary gift too. It is. Yeah,
that's all I thought. When I saw that, I was like, oh
my god, I can't believe this is the episode where yeah, unbelievable crotch
chop tech here just letting it loose, and that is the way they end
the show. So we have a goddamn heel. Shawn Michael's Commissioner Corporate Champion
Shane and Vince here. Austin may Or may not be alive. We don't
really care. That's all good, we'll figure it out. It doesn't really
matter who cares who the Blue Blazer is either. Who gives a shit about
the oddities, who cares about any of this they're doing. Yeah, that's
true. I mean this is a fun show, but like, looking at
it on paper, this is like fucking nuts. Yeah, for real,
this was wrestling at its most popular. That's true. Yeah, I mean
ridiculous, ridiculous, don't get me wrong, but like I love it.
Yeah, yeah, really I would relive this one hundred times over. And
yeah, we like yeah, fuck yeah, Like, if you're gonna go
dumb, you might as well go bo. You might try to you might
as well try to embalm this dude, like fucking kill them. No,
that's probably what they said at the fucking booking me, Like, oh,
I mean, while just bury the line, fuck it, I'm just fucking
bombed the dude. Take them into the fucking yeah and get the big stick.
I mean, we make fun of it because it is absurd on like,
you know, just reading it how it is, but yeah, no,
this is fun as fuck. And that is WBF Monday Night Raw for
