<v Speaker 2>Award.
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's get into ww E RAW for July fifteenth,
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and two, the episode where Eric Bischoff becomes
<v Speaker 1>the general manager of Raw.
<v Speaker 2>Eric Bischoff's WWE debut, he shows up here. Time to
<v Speaker 2>shake things up again. We usually go into the observer
<v Speaker 2>portion of the of the show here, but oddly enough,
<v Speaker 2>we've done all of them, like we've covered this section
<v Speaker 2>of two thousand and two unbelievably. I think like there's
<v Speaker 2>a lot of shit that goes on here. So if
<v Speaker 2>you want to see or hear what was going on
<v Speaker 2>at the time, check out the previous two thousand and
<v Speaker 2>two episodes. I'm sure there's an abundance of them. I
<v Speaker 2>think we did the one just two weeks before this
<v Speaker 2>show here in particular. So let's get into Monday Night
<v Speaker 2>Roll July fifteenth, two thousand and two.
<v Speaker 1>We started with a cold open here. Undertaker and Paul
<v Speaker 1>Hayman are in the locker room and Hayman is still
<v Speaker 1>reeling after being hit by a van terminator last week.
<v Speaker 2>Getting hit by a van, Well, I can't drive. So yeah,
<v Speaker 2>it's Undertaker and Hayman. They're talking together the undisputed titles
<v Speaker 2>in the shot because the Undertaker is the undisputed Champion.
<v Speaker 2>We are still in draft times, so who is on
<v Speaker 2>what show is still important here, and I think we're
<v Speaker 2>still in the era of undisputed champion gets to go
<v Speaker 2>on whatever show seems like it. Yeah, I think that's true. So, uh,
<v Speaker 2>the main event is going to be Undertaker teaming very
<v Speaker 2>first time with Brock Lesner against Rick Flair and RVD.
<v Speaker 2>This is crazy, dude. Yeah, Like that's a that's a
<v Speaker 2>shut your mouth season mode match. Yeah for real, they're
<v Speaker 2>just teaming you up with with whatever the rivalry is
<v Speaker 2>going into the paper. Yeah, I mean, like I was
<v Speaker 2>very intrigued. I gotta say so.
<v Speaker 1>RVD right now, by the way, is getting the biggest
<v Speaker 1>pops out of anyone on the Shade.
<v Speaker 2>He's so fucking over. Yeah, he's like unbelievably over which
<v Speaker 2>means like he should have won the belt for another
<v Speaker 2>like five to six years.
<v Speaker 1>That means we're on the road to elimination shape.
<v Speaker 2>Oh my, that's right, that is this year. Wow, we're RVD. Well, well,
<v Speaker 2>I don't know to drive.
<v Speaker 1>So the nWo music hits at the top of the show,
<v Speaker 1>but instead of the nWo it's Vince McMahon.
<v Speaker 2>Vince walking out to the nWo theme is cursed by
<v Speaker 2>the way it is.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I didn't understand what was going on at first.
<v Speaker 2>Also, what's messed up is what happens here Again. I
<v Speaker 2>know it's WWEWO, but I still have somewhere in my
<v Speaker 2>heart that feels like this should be like respected a
<v Speaker 2>little more, even if WCWSNWO didn't really respect the nWo.
<v Speaker 3>At the end, tell everybody the nWo sucks. What how
<v Speaker 3>bad fucking id Let's go over all the eras that
<v Speaker 3>are better in the era.
<v Speaker 2>That's what he does. Like, Vince gets on the mic
<v Speaker 2>and says, why, I bet you're wondering why it Vince
<v Speaker 2>Brockman come out to here to nWo music. Well, yes,
<v Speaker 2>so he says, the reason he walked out here to
<v Speaker 2>nWo music is because he thought people might want to
<v Speaker 2>hear it one more time, one last time. And Vince says,
<v Speaker 2>and you just did that. You heard the nWo music
<v Speaker 2>for the very last time, because there is no more nWo.
<v Speaker 2>The nWo is now history. The nWo era is history.
<v Speaker 2>And then, as you said, he goes on to list
<v Speaker 2>a bunch of other eras that he liked more the nWo.
<v Speaker 1>I thought maybe he was setting them up to come
<v Speaker 1>out like big show and everybody turn out. Yeah, like, okay,
<v Speaker 1>something I know. Kevin Nash was just injured last week.
<v Speaker 1>He tore his squad last week, So that's why they're
<v Speaker 1>pivoting here, just because Kevin Nash tours squad last week,
<v Speaker 1>which leaves the big show Booker T and gold Dust.
<v Speaker 2>Oh, they just kicked Booker T out as well. Booker
<v Speaker 2>T got kicked out of the group on so like
<v Speaker 2>that also just happened.
<v Speaker 1>I like to imagine that all the eras he listed,
<v Speaker 1>they were going to bring all these guys in and
<v Speaker 1>make him join the nWo, but sadly they had to
<v Speaker 1>pivot and say the NWA died instead.
<v Speaker 2>So he says, the nWo era is now history, no
<v Speaker 2>different than the many other eras preceding that here in
<v Speaker 2>the WWE that had to come to an end, which
<v Speaker 2>again this is not true. This nWo thing was not
<v Speaker 2>an era. God damn it, I remember it. No you don't.
<v Speaker 2>The Buddy Rogers era and Bruno sam Martina era, and
<v Speaker 2>the Veijer Morales era and the super star Belly Grammar era.
<v Speaker 2>And then we went into something called the Hall Cogan era. Dude,
<v Speaker 2>he goes on forever ultimate Warrior, Brett hart Stone, he says,
<v Speaker 2>most recently Stone called Steve Austin, which is like, okay,
<v Speaker 2>and all these era made their mark, but each and
<v Speaker 2>every one of these errors we changed with the times,
<v Speaker 2>so we must change now.
<v Speaker 1>So I think the idea here was who gets the
<v Speaker 1>biggest pot because they're gonna run the nWo. But yes,
<v Speaker 1>that's actually that's not what happened, because all these guys
<v Speaker 1>with a team with Goldust, it would have been.
<v Speaker 2>Awesome, dude. I mean, they could have come up with
<v Speaker 2>a new leader at the n W right like Triple
<v Speaker 2>H is right there, Buddy Rogers with so Vince says,
<v Speaker 2>this program raw was born ten years ago right across
<v Speaker 2>the Hudson River in downtown New York City, and soon
<v Speaker 2>we will celebrate our five hundredth episode of Raw. Hey,
<v Speaker 2>we're still a brander. Three hundred episode here soon.
<v Speaker 1>Brother, Dude, five hundred episodes is nuts. They're on like
<v Speaker 1>two thousand.
<v Speaker 2>No, I know we're old.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I actually wrote down here. Oh my god, Oh
<v Speaker 1>my god, five hundred. Wow.
<v Speaker 2>Well, it's time for Raw to be reborn again like
<v Speaker 2>oh Dust was, and it's time to shake up Raw,
<v Speaker 2>time to shake up SmackDown and the entire WWE brand,
<v Speaker 2>and that begins tonight. He's hired two general managers, one
<v Speaker 2>for Raw, one for SmackDown, and those two will have
<v Speaker 2>his unqualified support in their endeavors, and tonight's within the
<v Speaker 2>next hour, he will name the new general manager of
<v Speaker 2>Raw that will take Raw to higher ground and the
<v Speaker 2>crowd chance asshole.
<v Speaker 1>Vince says that he has these gms and he will
<v Speaker 1>give these people what they truly deserve. And then it
<v Speaker 1>shows the locker room watching in a big group.
<v Speaker 2>Interesting setup here, it's front of like it's where you
<v Speaker 2>would think the interview area would be at this time
<v Speaker 2>with the screen and they're all watching.
<v Speaker 1>It and it's just incredible watching for you think.
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, dude, I'm not fucking joking. I wrote
<v Speaker 2>down here, Booker taps Just Incredible on the shoulder and
<v Speaker 2>asks him, what do you work here.
<v Speaker 1>Watching for I just read I can watch her off
<v Speaker 1>for free here. I don't have cable, dude, and Just
<v Speaker 1>Incredible was wearing a deadlock jersey.
<v Speaker 2>Holy yeah, that's awesome, right, shout out, Yeah, that's so funny.
<v Speaker 2>We both had Just Incredible digs here. That's tred I mean, that's.
<v Speaker 1>The only thing I saw when it panned.
<v Speaker 2>Booker team tapping him on the shoulder, get his attention?
<v Speaker 1>You doing here, oh cold Ship, No, I'm justin.
<v Speaker 2>The fu.
<v Speaker 1>Tell me you didn't just say that.
<v Speaker 2>Also, I enjoy seeing the abundance of Vengeance pay per
<v Speaker 2>view shirts. I always enjoy that, And one guy that
<v Speaker 2>always wears them is fucking Rick Flair. Rick Flair is
<v Speaker 2>always repping the like brand merch.
<v Speaker 1>Well, yeah, he wants to keep his job. So we
<v Speaker 1>go backstage. Terry is with Rick Flair, who is now
<v Speaker 1>in full robe, and asked him about the new general
<v Speaker 1>manager tonight.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, she says, you know, there's rumors running rampant already.
<v Speaker 2>It could be stone Cold. That's just justin Rick Flair.
<v Speaker 1>Did you see Just Incredible back there?
<v Speaker 2>The fuck.
<v Speaker 1>Just walks away.
<v Speaker 2>She says, as a former co owner of this company,
<v Speaker 2>do you dare? Do you care excuse me to do
<v Speaker 2>you dare? Who the fuck you think is? Do you
<v Speaker 2>care to speculate on who it may be? And Flair says,
<v Speaker 2>I last, who is it? Flaire? Here's that somehow from
<v Speaker 2>j RN commentary. Fuck. He stops and looks up ohard
<v Speaker 2>On Anderson, Eddie Guerrero. Oh, just nobody, saying Petro Morales.
<v Speaker 2>I just set that up.
<v Speaker 1>So now it's time for the Jeff Hardy, Bubba Ray
<v Speaker 1>and Spike Dudley versus William Regal, Eddie Guerrero and Crispin
<v Speaker 1>Wass six man elimination opening match tag.
<v Speaker 2>Dude, when they said it was a six man elimination tag,
<v Speaker 2>I thought they like fucked it up. I thought like
<v Speaker 2>Lilian just was kind of going roague here and making
<v Speaker 2>rules for herself because she thought it'd be a better match.
<v Speaker 2>Had I Yeah, but like elimination tag opening on wrong?
<v Speaker 2>I mean, this is pretty interesting stuff. So last week,
<v Speaker 2>Jeff Hardy won the European title from William Regal with
<v Speaker 2>the Wanton Bomb. After the match, Regal cried because it
<v Speaker 2>had a lot to him, Jeff is just coming also
<v Speaker 2>off of facing Undertaker for the Underspeed the title in
<v Speaker 2>the Ladder match two weeks ago. So Jeff's pretty hot
<v Speaker 2>right now.
<v Speaker 1>Jeff is red hot.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he's fucking I mean, he's awesome, he's super over
<v Speaker 2>and he's doing a lot of great work here. Then
<v Speaker 2>they show us a moving graphic, emotion graphic you could say,
<v Speaker 2>of a match just announced earlier today, and j R. Says, well,
<v Speaker 2>just was announced earlier today. It was announced that Spike
<v Speaker 2>and Bubba. You can see it on the screen. It's
<v Speaker 2>Spike and Bubba and Eddie and Benoa and there's a
<v Speaker 2>table behind them.
<v Speaker 1>And j R.
<v Speaker 2>Says, earlier today was announced heid Spike and Bubba will
<v Speaker 2>face Eddie and Bewah in a ladder match.
<v Speaker 1>Jerry says, huh no, it's a tables match, isn't it.
<v Speaker 2>Or tables match? Hey, fuck your mom, gome here.
<v Speaker 1>I gotta say, though, Bubba and Spike versus Guerrero and
<v Speaker 1>Benoit in a pay per view, non title tag team
<v Speaker 1>table match is kind of insane. And it made me realize,
<v Speaker 1>because this is right as the draft is happening, that
<v Speaker 1>you can tell that everyone in this match except for
<v Speaker 1>Jeff Hardy is absolutely spinning their wheels right now.
<v Speaker 2>Dude, they have no I mean, like, how the fuck
<v Speaker 2>is Eddie and be want on this match? I mean,
<v Speaker 2>let's get real here.
<v Speaker 1>I know, especially because they go to SmackDown and top guys. Yeah,
<v Speaker 1>almost instantly. Yeah, it starts with Spike Dudley. He puts
<v Speaker 1>in the work here on Eddie Guerrero to get things started.
<v Speaker 1>Spike has a little bit of quick pace offense here.
<v Speaker 1>Head butt Cheese tries to sunset flip Eddie, but Eddie
<v Speaker 1>rolls back through and eliminates him. Get the fuck out
<v Speaker 1>of here.
<v Speaker 2>Dude, Sunset flip Eddie rolls through inside cradle and Spike's eliminated.
<v Speaker 2>See you, buddy. I was like, wow, okay, I thought
<v Speaker 2>that was going to be the pace of the rest
<v Speaker 2>of the match, Like I thought we were gonna fire off.
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so did I. I definitely thought that, But it
<v Speaker 1>actually set up pretty well. So the Heels have the numbers.
<v Speaker 1>Game on the baby failis right now, Bubba comes in.
<v Speaker 1>It's the Bubba bomb on Eddie. You mentioned that. That's
<v Speaker 1>where I thought, Oh wow, so Eddie's gonna get eliminated
<v Speaker 1>right here.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, which I thought too, and I was like, no way,
<v Speaker 2>like because they gat up the bubba I'm crazy, Oh
<v Speaker 2>fucked bubba bomb, and the crowd popped for it. I said, oh,
<v Speaker 2>Eddie's gone. Maybe the crowd thought he was too, just
<v Speaker 2>because they also expected them to go quick.
<v Speaker 1>But Regal breaks it up. So the mat shrolls on.
<v Speaker 1>Regal drags Eddie to the corner. Ben Wa tags himself
<v Speaker 1>in Bubba Spear tackles ben Wah and it sounds like
<v Speaker 1>the ring exploded.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it looked awesome. They called a there's a multiple
<v Speaker 2>spears on the show that they call a running shoulder tackle.
<v Speaker 2>So I don't know if there was like word to
<v Speaker 2>not call spears that from the guys that don't through
<v Speaker 2>spears spears or what it was, but run running shoulder tackle.
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god.
<v Speaker 1>So ben Wa takes over with the souplex and tags
<v Speaker 1>in Regal. Bubba hits the hook line and sinker on.
<v Speaker 1>Regal hits a belly to back on ben Wah and
<v Speaker 1>then fucking I swear to God, crosses Eddie into space
<v Speaker 1>all the way over the ropes to the floor.
<v Speaker 2>It's a hip toss, right like, but all the way over. Yeah,
<v Speaker 2>like I was stunned at how much air he fucking
<v Speaker 2>got there, And then I thought it was cool that
<v Speaker 2>Bubba and Jeff then do the poetry in motion together.
<v Speaker 1>I always love when guys that don't team like that
<v Speaker 1>do each other's moves, especially a team that's this historied.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they were mentioned, I like on college, Like I
<v Speaker 2>don't know if I don't know if they've ever teamed
<v Speaker 2>up together.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's really cool. I think the word I was
<v Speaker 1>looking for is storied, but history it works too.
<v Speaker 2>History. I mean that's you know, that's yours sounds better.
<v Speaker 2>I like yours.
<v Speaker 1>Eddie takes Hearty to the corner and just starts unloading
<v Speaker 1>on them. I mean he has.
<v Speaker 2>Hissed, beats the shit out of him, like ben Wall
<v Speaker 2>also germaned Bubba almost on his head, So that was fun.
<v Speaker 1>Dude, Eddie's kicks in the corner. There's such a intensity
<v Speaker 1>Eddie and Benoa, both of them, they just have like
<v Speaker 1>the super intense lock in that they do, and like
<v Speaker 1>it really looks like Eddie's giving it to him bad.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, when you're.
<v Speaker 1>Doing heat like this, it has to be intense or
<v Speaker 1>I'm not fucking and buying it.
<v Speaker 2>And no I'm zoning out, especially nowadays, I got adhd like,
<v Speaker 2>if you're not kicking the dude's ass, I'm fucking whatever.
<v Speaker 1>And Eddie flips the switch like when he gets angry
<v Speaker 1>in the ring, or like he flips to like he's
<v Speaker 1>getting in control for his control seg dude, he is
<v Speaker 1>just intense. Yeah, it's awesome.
<v Speaker 2>It helps that he like puts his whole body into
<v Speaker 2>it too, because when he's stomping Jeff out, like his
<v Speaker 2>veins are popping out of his fucking head, like he's
<v Speaker 2>into it.
<v Speaker 1>So Regal tags in and hits the jumping double knees,
<v Speaker 1>such a Regal move.
<v Speaker 2>That's like a shut your mouth staple.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's annoying as fuck. I don't know why. There's
<v Speaker 1>some animations that movie I hate being hit by, and
<v Speaker 1>that's one of them.
<v Speaker 2>I felt like that about. Uh it's that one and
<v Speaker 2>the the weird choke slam that's in no mercy. It's
<v Speaker 2>like a light grapple choke slam.
<v Speaker 1>With the back of the head.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I fucking hate that one.
<v Speaker 1>Regal grabs the European title here. He goes to use
<v Speaker 1>it on Jeff, but Bubba Ray stops him and hits
<v Speaker 1>Regal with the belt instead. Sadly, Earl Hebner sees it
<v Speaker 1>and says, get the fuck out of here, you stitch.
<v Speaker 2>You're DQ So Donuts almost distracted until he wasn't and
<v Speaker 2>then he blatantly saw himitted with the title, which I
<v Speaker 2>thought was funny.
<v Speaker 1>Uh.
<v Speaker 2>And then he de accuses him and throws him out.
<v Speaker 1>My favorite part about this is in the beginning of
<v Speaker 1>the match, Regal is trying to wrestle. In the last
<v Speaker 1>part of the match, Regal is only trying to cheat.
<v Speaker 1>Only he's done wrestling. He's just chating.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he found out that the boys are going to
<v Speaker 2>beat him here soon and the only recourse is by
<v Speaker 2>hitting you with the European Championship.
<v Speaker 1>So Bubba's been deced. Uh. Bubba goes to knock down
<v Speaker 1>Eddie and Ben Wah on his way out of the match,
<v Speaker 1>and Jeff HiT's a swanton bomb on Regal and pins them.
<v Speaker 2>That was awesome. Ye had quick elimination there because he
<v Speaker 2>was fucked from the title shot.
<v Speaker 1>So and that's his guy. So him eliminating the guy
<v Speaker 1>he beat last week here and then leaving him to
<v Speaker 1>the Sharks, Minoa and Guerrero. So Jeff does the split
<v Speaker 1>leg pin on Eddie almost immediately here after some heat
<v Speaker 1>and steals a pin. He eliminates Eddie Guerrero.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, also in the crowd when this was going on,
<v Speaker 2>I just saw I saw two dudes in the crowd
<v Speaker 2>and one of them gave his boy a stunner, which
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's awesome. Yeah, that's like real shit. Did
<v Speaker 2>he give him the.
<v Speaker 1>Stunner and take his pants down the rooming around I
<v Speaker 1>was looking at.
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna read three that just some people know what
<v Speaker 2>we're talking about.
<v Speaker 1>So Eddie gets up immediately after being eliminated, and him
<v Speaker 1>had been watch to start kicking Jeff's ass.
<v Speaker 2>I mean, they kick the shit off of him. Eddie's
<v Speaker 2>not on the match anymore, and he's fucking murking this dude.
<v Speaker 1>I love JR here because he wants Eddie out of
<v Speaker 1>this match so bad. Come on, ref, what are you doing?
<v Speaker 2>Ref? He's not even in the match, he's yeah, I mean,
<v Speaker 2>that's that's Jarard his best right when he's fucking pissed.
<v Speaker 1>He loves Babyfaces. It's hard to have somebody that puts
<v Speaker 1>over Babyfaces as much as JR does. He's one of
<v Speaker 1>the best ever at it. I don't know why or
<v Speaker 1>what move Jeff hits here, but he does something. I
<v Speaker 1>maybe it was a spinning heel kick, the one on
<v Speaker 1>Eddie where Eddie powders afterwards. It was like an Irish
<v Speaker 1>whip into something.
<v Speaker 2>So it's he he I legit wrote down Jeff Duckson
<v Speaker 2>takes out Eddie. I don't. I didn't know what it
<v Speaker 2>was either.
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't tell it was either a flying line or
<v Speaker 1>a spinning yell kick. I don't. Yeah, maybe somebody does,
<v Speaker 1>or maybe somebody can slow it down and check it out.
<v Speaker 2>The angle was fucked up, that's what it was. They
<v Speaker 2>were zoomed in and then he took him out.
<v Speaker 1>So it's down to Ben Wah and Jeff Hardy here
<v Speaker 1>and Jeff hits whisper in the wind and when he does,
<v Speaker 1>a dude in the front row starts flexing crazy.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Jeff doing whisper and the wind gives him full
<v Speaker 2>meter so he's fired up.
<v Speaker 1>Yes, it's just dope Eddie. He comes back into the match,
<v Speaker 1>but Earl stops him by going to confront him and
<v Speaker 1>tells him to fuck off on the ramp.
<v Speaker 2>Not only he just goes out to confront him. He's
<v Speaker 2>shoving Eddie Guerrero physically. He's pushing him and saying get
<v Speaker 2>the fuck out of here. But as this is going on,
<v Speaker 2>Regal is now back here to cheat. Eddie is Jeff
<v Speaker 2>Hardy with brass knucks.
<v Speaker 1>So ben Wah then locks in the cross face after
<v Speaker 1>Jeff Hardy has been hit by the brass knuckles and
<v Speaker 1>Jeff passes out. So Eddie comes back down and I said,
<v Speaker 1>damn cheating again. I see Eddie comes down and he
<v Speaker 1>grabs a table and ben Wan Eddie goes set it
<v Speaker 1>up because they have a tables non title tag team
<v Speaker 1>match with Bubba and Spike.
<v Speaker 2>They should put on a ladder.
<v Speaker 1>So ben Wan Eddie set it up. Bubba and Spike
<v Speaker 1>then come back down here to make the.
<v Speaker 2>Save good dude, who are the tag champions?
<v Speaker 1>Jenhole Cogan?
<v Speaker 2>No, right, Well the SmackDown guys, Okay, So that makes sense.
<v Speaker 1>Egenhole Cogan beat Billy and Chuck on July second, and
<v Speaker 1>they lose them next week or I'm sorry this upcoming
<v Speaker 1>weekend at Vengeance against Christian and Lance Storm.
<v Speaker 2>Wow.
<v Speaker 1>So that's where we're at with the titles, and we
<v Speaker 1>only have the one right now. I can't then one
<v Speaker 1>angle when the SmackDown titles, that's right, when they split them,
<v Speaker 1>who wins the Raw ones?
<v Speaker 2>So Christian and Lanstorm go to.
<v Speaker 1>Raw so they're the first champions.
<v Speaker 2>So they're the Raw Tag champions and then SmackDown gets
<v Speaker 2>tag titles in October.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, because they do the little tournament.
<v Speaker 2>Yes right right.
<v Speaker 1>Coach is back here in front of mistery Man's office
<v Speaker 1>speculating who could be the new general manager.
<v Speaker 2>So Coach says, there's been rumors as to who the
<v Speaker 2>new GM might be, names like mc foley, who lives
<v Speaker 2>close to this building. Also, Vince McMann has a brother
<v Speaker 2>who lives in Texas named Rod McMahon. He's been mentioned.
<v Speaker 1>What dude's name is? Rod?
<v Speaker 2>A deck quick Man? Johnson?
<v Speaker 3>Uh.
<v Speaker 2>And then Paul Hayman walks up. Coach says, whoa hey,
<v Speaker 2>what are you doing? And Hayman says, well, Vince wants
<v Speaker 2>to see me, And Coach says, well, there's been speculation
<v Speaker 2>that you could be the new general manager. And Hammon says, well,
<v Speaker 2>we about to find out. And let's be honest, who
<v Speaker 2>is more qualified to be a gem of Raw than
<v Speaker 2>Paul Haman And Coach says well, if it is Paul Haman,
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna wait right here until Paul comes out to
<v Speaker 2>confirm it. But we don't have to wait too long
<v Speaker 2>there because a stage hand runs by coach and runs
<v Speaker 2>into the office and says, excuse me, mister McMahon, what
<v Speaker 2>the fuck is wrong with you? All right, calm down?
<v Speaker 2>What is it? And she says, you told me to
<v Speaker 2>interrupt you the second he arrived, and Vinn says, he,
<v Speaker 2>I don't know why I said it like that.
<v Speaker 1>Gives him a real exaggerated step.
<v Speaker 2>Back to and she says, yes, the new general manager
<v Speaker 2>he's arrived, and Vince says, the new general manager's here, Well,
<v Speaker 2>would you be so kind to bring him in? This
<v Speaker 2>is gonna be an a monumentous occasion.
<v Speaker 1>Vince tells the stage hand to let the new general
<v Speaker 1>manager in Ah come in, and in walks Shane McMahon.
<v Speaker 2>What the hell is that?
<v Speaker 1>Huge pot?
<v Speaker 2>By the way, Hey Rod, Yeah, dude, huge pot. I
<v Speaker 2>mean Shane's always been over huh.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well, I mean he he earned his cred.
<v Speaker 2>That's one of the craziest humans ever to live, right, Like,
<v Speaker 2>he didn't have to do anything.
<v Speaker 1>Just wanted to do cool shit.
<v Speaker 2>He just wanted to be one of the boys, which
<v Speaker 2>I fucking respect the ton, so uh yeah, Shane. Vince's
<v Speaker 2>eyes go wide as Shane walks in and they go
<v Speaker 2>face to face, and Vince.
<v Speaker 4>Has, what dall are you doing here? You're not my
<v Speaker 4>new general manager. You're also not my brother Rod McMahon.
<v Speaker 4>She says, no, I'm not. I'm here to stop you
<v Speaker 4>for making the single biggest mistake in our family's history.
<v Speaker 4>This goes back to your father and your grandfather. We
<v Speaker 4>already know about them.
<v Speaker 2>And Vince says, spare me. Okay, you my son. You
<v Speaker 2>tried to put me out of business. Yeah, you have
<v Speaker 2>a family concern. I mean, that's that's for true. Give
<v Speaker 2>this man, it's true. He did try to do that. Well,
<v Speaker 2>Shane says, at least it was family trying to do it. No,
<v Speaker 2>that's not a good argument. You try to kill this governy, well,
<v Speaker 2>at least try to take it over. I guess I
<v Speaker 2>don't know if you try to kill it, he says.
<v Speaker 2>When we were battling for control of this company, at
<v Speaker 2>least you knew who you were dealing with, your new
<v Speaker 2>choice for general manager. And yes, I do know who
<v Speaker 2>it is. He's a parasite. How does he know?
<v Speaker 1>Can you tell us?
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? Did you just spoil it? Why are you waiting?
<v Speaker 2>What are you waiting for? What a wait for you?
<v Speaker 2>I'm glad we were on the same page. Shane says,
<v Speaker 2>the first chance he gets, he's gonna screw you and
<v Speaker 2>this company and our family over royally and Vince says, oh, well,
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate your concern. I'm not gonna change my mind,
<v Speaker 2>and Shane says, it's your decision one that affects you
<v Speaker 2>and everybody else.
<v Speaker 1>So we go backstage. Tommy Dreamer walks into the locker
<v Speaker 1>room and wait a minute, Holy ship, there's gold Dust.
<v Speaker 2>Gold Dust with wig on in the corner. I don't
<v Speaker 2>know what he was doing, no match? What the fuck
<v Speaker 2>does he have his gear on? Actually? I guess he
<v Speaker 2>just dars. Oh yeah, you beat Lance Cade.
<v Speaker 1>So Tommy Dreamer walks in here and Rob Van Dama
<v Speaker 1>is right there.
<v Speaker 2>Hey, Tommy, you work here. I saw Stone Cold earlier.
<v Speaker 1>Rob. That was just incredible. Okay, I think he's just fine.
<v Speaker 2>So Tommy says, what do you what do you think
<v Speaker 2>of this GM stuff? And Already says, I know huge news, right,
<v Speaker 2>I don't know who it is, but I'm glad it's
<v Speaker 2>not Paul Haman. He made my career.
<v Speaker 1>Remember when Paulie made me walk out of the pay
<v Speaker 1>per view and ask why I didn't have a match.
<v Speaker 2>Remember when he fired Saboo?
<v Speaker 1>I love Sabo? Whoa?
<v Speaker 2>And he made some guy champion? Yeah that was just incredible.
<v Speaker 1>No, No, I don't think he was that good.
<v Speaker 2>That kid.
<v Speaker 1>Rob His name is just incredible. Whose name.
<v Speaker 2>Sabo is a cool name? So Tommy says, yeah, me too.
<v Speaker 2>Speaking of Hayman, howd A feel when hit him with
<v Speaker 2>that van terminator last week?
<v Speaker 1>Whoa?
<v Speaker 2>That is my move.
<v Speaker 1>With a van assassinating?
<v Speaker 2>So Dreamer hangs his back up and Stephen Richards walks
<v Speaker 2>in Steven Richards, and Stephen Richards says, isn't at the
<v Speaker 2>guardian of all things? He said to be Tommy Dreamer?
<v Speaker 2>And Tommy says, what do you want? Stevie says he
<v Speaker 2>wants to congratulate him never standing up to Paul Hyman
<v Speaker 2>and Lesnar and defending all the East to you guys.
<v Speaker 2>But deep downside he knows it was a load of crap.
<v Speaker 2>He did it for himself. And since there's a new
<v Speaker 2>GM tonight, why don't we make our match a little
<v Speaker 2>more noticeable. You seemed to be a real handy with
<v Speaker 2>a Singapore cane last week, so why don't we make
<v Speaker 2>our match a Singapore cane match. They could just do that.
<v Speaker 1>Well. I think they made the match only because they
<v Speaker 1>wanted Stephen Richards to say this one liner.
<v Speaker 2>Oh okay, of course, he says, you whip out your
<v Speaker 2>stick and I whip out mine, which is funny in
<v Speaker 2>its own until.
<v Speaker 1>Sounds like an offer too good to be true.
<v Speaker 2>Dude, Okay, I don't know if they wanted it to
<v Speaker 2>go this way. But he walks away, and Dreamer and
<v Speaker 2>Stevie genuinely laugh like that's a real laugh that they do.
<v Speaker 1>It absolutely is a real laugh. But they save it
<v Speaker 1>and it's even funnier they do.
<v Speaker 2>So they they fucking bust out laughing, and Stevie looks
<v Speaker 2>at Dreamers as well, and Drewer says, you got him, bro.
<v Speaker 2>Stevie then throws a cane because he's holding two knes.
<v Speaker 2>He throws one a Dreamer, who catches in the air,
<v Speaker 2>and then Stevie winds back with another kN and fucking
<v Speaker 2>hits Dreamer in the stomach with it and lays him
<v Speaker 2>out and he takes Dreamers Kane away and says, I'll
<v Speaker 2>show you. Oh yeah, that's his thing is if you
<v Speaker 2>didn't know, I'll show you as this thing, you will
<v Speaker 2>be thoroughly introduced it in this match.
<v Speaker 1>So Stevie Richards and Tommy Dreamer a match that overachieved
<v Speaker 1>in droves.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, lord, like they went forward here.
<v Speaker 1>I mean the promo backstage before this had them corpsing
<v Speaker 1>after gold Dust said that he would like them to
<v Speaker 1>whip out their sticks. So in return, Stevie Richards and
<v Speaker 1>Tommy Dreamer walk out and Tommy bleeds crazy. Dude. I
<v Speaker 1>don't know if he meant to believe this much, but
<v Speaker 1>it was unbelievable how good this shirt was. This is
<v Speaker 1>one of I mean, this has gotta be one of
<v Speaker 1>the better five minute matches that I've seen in a while.
<v Speaker 2>This is like one of the best WWF hardcore matches ever. Like,
<v Speaker 2>it's got to be top five.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, this is like a sleeper hit. I was surprised
<v Speaker 1>at how good.
<v Speaker 2>This was me too. I was like, they're going for it, dude, Yeah,
<v Speaker 2>this is awesome.
<v Speaker 1>So Tommy Dreamer comes out here in a WWE psych
<v Speaker 1>Ward shirt as he does ecdupduk. Steven Richards comes out
<v Speaker 1>here to show you. And he comes out here and
<v Speaker 1>he holds the canes up into an X for WX.
<v Speaker 1>What's that stand for?
<v Speaker 2>Whatever you want? I'll show you.
<v Speaker 1>You'll see if you didn't know, that's his thing.
<v Speaker 2>He says that.
<v Speaker 1>So we start this one quick. Here Tommy dream he
<v Speaker 1>hits him with the Singapore cane.
<v Speaker 2>Can you believe that, dude? Unbelievable Singapore cane match? Which
<v Speaker 2>what is the Singapore cane match? Because you would think
<v Speaker 2>it's Singapore canes are legal only, but I don't know
<v Speaker 2>if that.
<v Speaker 1>Was the case here.
<v Speaker 2>Well, they're there, right, so's a lot of other stuff
<v Speaker 2>I imagine know.
<v Speaker 1>There was a table earlier, right, But Stephen Richards is
<v Speaker 1>gonna show you.
<v Speaker 2>You'll see, I like, you know what, You're right to
<v Speaker 2>just enjoy the ride.
<v Speaker 1>So Tommy Dreamer jumps off the stairs and hits a
<v Speaker 1>double ax Singapore cane here to step Richards.
<v Speaker 2>All right, this almost killed the match for me.
<v Speaker 1>Come on, man, he's just getting innovative.
<v Speaker 2>I okay, listen, I because there's an East w chant
<v Speaker 2>already in this match, and they're outside and Dreamer is
<v Speaker 2>standing on the stairs and he looks here's the CCW
<v Speaker 2>chant but he's riding for a new company. So he
<v Speaker 2>looks out and yells w w E and jumps off
<v Speaker 2>hit Stevie in the back with the cane. And I,
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I was like, wow, this, I fucking I
<v Speaker 2>fucking hate you.
<v Speaker 1>Well, I was to pay penance, to pay penance, he
<v Speaker 1>gets a gusher.
<v Speaker 2>He makes up for it in droves, which I appreciate,
<v Speaker 2>but I gotta say, like I was ready to rail
<v Speaker 2>this match. I was fucking so fired. I was like, wow, oh,
<v Speaker 2>I can't wait to make fun of this.
<v Speaker 1>So Tommy Dreamer grabs the stairs, but Stevie hits him
<v Speaker 1>in the head with the Singapore cane.
<v Speaker 2>Well that's good because the stairs would have been illegal.
<v Speaker 1>No, they're fine, No that can't I'll see, you'll see.
<v Speaker 1>So Tommy Dreamer is now bleeding fucking unbelievable here.
<v Speaker 2>Like I don't know there's I mean, is there a
<v Speaker 2>chance that it was like a gusher? Like he just
<v Speaker 2>got him good for real?
<v Speaker 1>Maybe Tommy Dreamer had a point to Pree. You can't
<v Speaker 1>shout WWE to the crowd and then not have a
<v Speaker 1>good match, right Like if you if you screamed w
<v Speaker 1>w lee at the crowd and then had a shitty match.
<v Speaker 2>Die die, So Stevie brains them with his ship, and
<v Speaker 2>then Stevie starts cutting a promo on the Singapore Cane
<v Speaker 2>that he hit Dreamer with, which ends with I showed.
<v Speaker 1>Him, Yes he did.
<v Speaker 2>And then I don't know, I'm sure you must have
<v Speaker 2>called this. Somebody in the crowd yells b w O,
<v Speaker 2>b w O. Yes, hell yeah, guy to machine made
<v Speaker 2>it to this show.
<v Speaker 1>He went forward in time. So Steven Richard J hits
<v Speaker 1>the soup lexture Dreamer on the ramp. He'll show you.
<v Speaker 2>Uh, this is where I see Dreamer is fucking gush
<v Speaker 2>and blood. I mean they are not going easy on
<v Speaker 2>these cane shots whatever, like whatsoever. I guess you can't,
<v Speaker 2>like they're lacing each other with this ship.
<v Speaker 1>Well, these guys don't get matches, especially singles matches, and
<v Speaker 1>they won't in the future either, so they have to
<v Speaker 1>do something here, right, But they're on the they're on
<v Speaker 1>the Flagship show.
<v Speaker 2>That's true. That's true. That's on the proof.
<v Speaker 1>Right, So like, yeah, they went out here and Tommy
<v Speaker 1>Dreamer said, dude, I don't I'll fucking die and I
<v Speaker 1>don't care, like it's all I got. So Yeah, Richard's
<v Speaker 1>hits the suplex on the ramp. Dreamer is not really
<v Speaker 1>really bleeding here, So Dreamer, this is actually very well
<v Speaker 1>placed and worked out very well here. Richards is really
<v Speaker 1>giving it to him, and Dreamer is like standing up
<v Speaker 1>getting a second win, fighting through the shots, and the
<v Speaker 1>crowd is like coming up with him.
<v Speaker 2>It was it was awesome. He fucking he's bleeding a ton.
<v Speaker 2>Stevie's lighting them up with these cane shots and Dreamer
<v Speaker 2>gets up and says, come on you, son of a bitch,
<v Speaker 2>and the crowd goes nuts.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they thought that was awesome. So like, really well
<v Speaker 1>done here. I think it works especially well in a
<v Speaker 1>match that that is this short and has this much
<v Speaker 1>blood in it. Like, very well placed here. I don't
<v Speaker 1>think this works all the time, but very well placed here.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they figure it out.
<v Speaker 1>Dreamer hits a side Russian and a raven effect for
<v Speaker 1>a two.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's my finish.
<v Speaker 1>So Dreamer comes off the top looking for that double
<v Speaker 1>axe he did earlier, but this time off the second
<v Speaker 1>and Stevie. Stevie kicks him in mid air for it too.
<v Speaker 2>I couldn't believe it.
<v Speaker 1>He really actually hits it, and it looked great.
<v Speaker 2>It looked fucking awesome. Yeah, I was like, wow, that's
<v Speaker 2>sick as fuck.
<v Speaker 1>Fantastic finish here too. Richard's goes to hit Dreamer one
<v Speaker 1>last time and Dreamer stands up, ats he's running at him,
<v Speaker 1>and unloads the most ridiculous headshot.
<v Speaker 2>I mean it.
<v Speaker 1>Looked there should be like a GTA cut scene like
<v Speaker 1>boo dude.
<v Speaker 2>Wait, yeah, like like Sandman on acid is not hitting
<v Speaker 2>somebody as hard as Dreamer hits Stevie here with his
<v Speaker 2>cane like he hits it's it's fucking disgusting. It's so sick.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, his head shot and falls on top of him
<v Speaker 1>for the three and he wins the match. Tommy Dreams
<v Speaker 1>has beaten Steven Richards on Raw.
<v Speaker 2>Great match, dude, I.
<v Speaker 1>Mean yeah, this over delivered on every level. One of
<v Speaker 1>the better five minute and undermatches that I can remember
<v Speaker 1>really in my head right now. Period. Sure, super well done.
<v Speaker 1>Everything made a ton of sense, and damn the last shot.
<v Speaker 1>I love the I'm gonna kill you and then you
<v Speaker 1>hit him with one thing and fall on top of him.
<v Speaker 1>That is so good. Yeah, just I mean this had
<v Speaker 1>to be lightning in a bottle. You could run this
<v Speaker 1>match one hundred times in a row, and like, I
<v Speaker 1>don't think it would ever be as good as this
<v Speaker 1>one right here. Yeah, dude, So we go backstage. Booker
<v Speaker 1>T is looking at his hand as Coach walks up
<v Speaker 1>and says, what about the big show?
<v Speaker 2>Dude, that's seriously what happens. It's not like Coach was
<v Speaker 2>waiting to interview him. Booker T is back there looking
<v Speaker 2>at his hand like going on, that's his idol he's
<v Speaker 2>ging up for like you know, that's like where he
<v Speaker 2>gets his power from his hand, and he's staring at it,
<v Speaker 2>and Coach just happens to walk home and say, hey, Booker, Booker,
<v Speaker 2>that is taking off from his hand and says.
<v Speaker 1>What that's the power of the five.
<v Speaker 2>Coach says, keeping in mind with you know, everybodys talking
<v Speaker 2>about the new GM. You have to focus on your
<v Speaker 2>match with a big show. The nWo is dead. But
<v Speaker 2>and Booker says, Coach, when Shawn Michaels came back, he
<v Speaker 2>put one right here, dog, right on my grill. The
<v Speaker 2>nWo just stood there and celebrated boo yah. One month later,
<v Speaker 2>nWo dead and buried half a style. Baby. You know
<v Speaker 2>what I feel. I feel like celebrating. You feel like
<v Speaker 2>celebrating with me? Dog, And Coach says, normally I wouldn't.
<v Speaker 2>And Booker, I guess answering four. Coach instead says you
<v Speaker 2>damn skippy hippie. You know what, why don't you give
<v Speaker 2>me one of them? Coacher runeys. Coach says, well, Booker,
<v Speaker 2>I don't think this is a time. Or Booker snatches
<v Speaker 2>the mic from him that says all it's like that
<v Speaker 2>hount Dog the Rock is the only one to mess
<v Speaker 2>what announces around here. News flash Rocks on another program.
<v Speaker 2>So make with that spinning Jack.
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad he brought that up.
<v Speaker 2>I know that's fucking real shit. Like everyone else is
<v Speaker 2>cool with the Rock buzzl their balls. I mean, I
<v Speaker 2>love Booker t this shit's awesome.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.
<v Speaker 2>So Coach sets up for the Coach of Rooney and
<v Speaker 2>he's fucking ging up for it, shaking his hand in
<v Speaker 2>his face, his head's bobbling around, and he does the
<v Speaker 2>Coacher Rooney, which looks like shit.
<v Speaker 1>The crowd booze, dude, dad, they.
<v Speaker 2>Hate this fucking pig. And Booker looks at him and disbelieve,
<v Speaker 2>and he calls him over and Jerry Laller on commentary says,
<v Speaker 2>is coach caukasion. Booker says, what the hell was that
<v Speaker 2>you show your black dog? And Lawler says, that's what
<v Speaker 2>I wonder and Booker says, the fact that matters this
<v Speaker 2>big show. I'm about to come out there and pull
<v Speaker 2>and Alan Iverson on your plunk.
<v Speaker 1>Now, can you dig that?
<v Speaker 2>Sucker? Fucking confused Booker face legendary gift, dude.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So someone walks up on the interview here after
<v Speaker 1>Booker ends it with Coach, and Booker gives this lookoff
<v Speaker 1>camera and the cameras zooming in and shit with him,
<v Speaker 1>and it is. It is the gift you've all seen
<v Speaker 1>if you look up Booker t on Discord Gifts, it's
<v Speaker 1>probably one of the top two that you'll see, dude,
<v Speaker 1>Legit number two and it's the famous gift. And I
<v Speaker 1>couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe how many things were
<v Speaker 1>in this episode that I was like, Oh, I know
<v Speaker 1>where this is. I've seen this before.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yeah, no, that's awesome.
<v Speaker 1>And yeah it's Eric Bischoff who walks off.
<v Speaker 2>Dude, which is like, how crazy is that that that's
<v Speaker 2>how they fired this off. I wonder if it's like
<v Speaker 2>they knew that, like hour two was about to hit
<v Speaker 2>and they figured, fuck it, let's pop off Bischoff. Have
<v Speaker 2>a commercial break, then everyone will have time to tune
<v Speaker 2>in and see this angle.
<v Speaker 1>Yes, I think that's exactly what it was.
<v Speaker 2>I mean, Bischoff walks in the frame and the crowd
<v Speaker 2>goes like it takes a second for its register because
<v Speaker 2>they haven't seen him in forever, you know what I mean. So,
<v Speaker 2>like he comes on the screen, it's quiet for a
<v Speaker 2>second and they go, oh shit, and JR. Says oh god.
<v Speaker 2>And Bishoff extends his hand to Booker and says Booker,
<v Speaker 2>so good to see you, my friend. And he walks
<v Speaker 2>away and Booker stares him down and says, tell me,
<v Speaker 2>I didn't just see that. Do you? Did you watch
<v Speaker 2>this live?
<v Speaker 1>Like?
<v Speaker 2>Do you remember this happened?
<v Speaker 1>I don't remember it live.
<v Speaker 2>Nah, I remember it live. And I remember the fucking
<v Speaker 2>WWF chat fucking going crazy.
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, that's cool.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the IRC chat was going nut. It's like this
<v Speaker 2>was fucking gnarly. Yeah, sure, like and I was a
<v Speaker 2>dirt sheet head and I don't even think I caught
<v Speaker 2>that one, you know what I mean.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's cool.
<v Speaker 2>So like yeah, so then we go to commercial. After that,
<v Speaker 2>Vince walks out on stage no music, gets on the
<v Speaker 2>mic and says you, oh, you don't realize this, but
<v Speaker 2>it takes a real son of a betch that gets
<v Speaker 2>successful in this business. So from one son of a
<v Speaker 2>betch to another a lot, this is crazy that that's
<v Speaker 2>the introduction for fucking Eric Bischoff. It is son of
<v Speaker 2>a bitch to another. Allow me to introduce you to
<v Speaker 2>the new general manager raw. His name is Eric Bischoff,
<v Speaker 2>and the version that I imagine a majority of people
<v Speaker 2>have heard and seen because I think they only one
<v Speaker 2>time do this and have edited to shit for years
<v Speaker 2>to come. But Bischoff comes out to Back in Black
<v Speaker 2>by ac DC here.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah that's cool.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's like nuts. I imagine they like must have
<v Speaker 2>got the bill after that.
<v Speaker 1>Whoa yeah, sure fuck all that. Yeah, especially in two
<v Speaker 1>thousand and two. But Eric Bischoff's theme song is awesome.
<v Speaker 2>Dude gets back Yeah, dude like like legendary theme. I
<v Speaker 2>actually yeah know it might I like it more than
<v Speaker 2>Back of Black. And that's a great fucking song.
<v Speaker 1>Bishoff walking out with that song and like slapping his
<v Speaker 1>chest with his hands. Yes, how I remember him the most,
<v Speaker 1>I think.
<v Speaker 2>So Bischoff comes out and she said pat in his
<v Speaker 2>chest Bischoff style, and him and Vince hug, big fucking hug.
<v Speaker 2>And Jared says, I can't even believe to be I
<v Speaker 2>can't even begin to tell our viewers what dish is
<v Speaker 2>gonna mean. And Lawler says, I used to send the
<v Speaker 2>same broadcast booth every week with Vince and he would
<v Speaker 2>wish death upon her of bishop.
<v Speaker 1>Did I love how they shook hands here? Yeah, and
<v Speaker 1>it looked like they had never shaken hands before. It
<v Speaker 1>was their very first time. It could have been they
<v Speaker 1>have never shaken hands with any human ever. Like Vince
<v Speaker 1>goes in for the handshake, Bishoff comes down twelve to
<v Speaker 1>six and then they kind of bring it back around
<v Speaker 1>vertical style. I said, wow, what is happening?
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they invented a new handshake, like Bischoff is doing
<v Speaker 2>the thumbs up with his other hand while he's lost
<v Speaker 2>in his hand shake too.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I think it's funny, But I think what they
<v Speaker 1>wanted is they didn't want to turn away from the camera, right,
<v Speaker 1>So they're trying to like get this handshaken with turning
<v Speaker 1>to each other facing. Yeah, yeah, it's funny.
<v Speaker 2>Look at a comrade. Well, there's our new boss. Bischoff's
<v Speaker 2>walking down the ring. You know, I got I got
<v Speaker 2>twenty five years in this business and it comes down
<v Speaker 2>to where Eric Bischoff is my new bosh. By god,
<v Speaker 2>am I a lucky fat Oklahoma. That's funny at shit.
<v Speaker 2>So Bischoff is on the mic in the ring, in
<v Speaker 2>a ww WE ring, and he says, for those of
<v Speaker 2>you that may not know me, my name is Eric Bischoff,
<v Speaker 2>and I used to run WCW, not that watered down
<v Speaker 2>version that invaded this company. I mean, that's that sucks everybody.
<v Speaker 1>My name is Eric Bischoff. I wasn't aware that we
<v Speaker 1>just break k fave here all the time I saw
<v Speaker 1>Vince do it earlier. I'm gonna rock a couple off
<v Speaker 1>real quick. You guys, let me know when I should stop.
<v Speaker 2>He I mean, that's this whole thing is like He's
<v Speaker 2>just this is like a shoot promo. Yeah, he said.
<v Speaker 2>When I ran ww I became famous and I was
<v Speaker 2>the only person to ever be able to take it
<v Speaker 2>right to Vince McMahon. In fact, when Vince was out
<v Speaker 2>here a couple of weeks ago talking about ruthless aggression.
<v Speaker 2>Who do you think he was talking about? It was
<v Speaker 2>just incredible. When Vince needed star power, I was ruthless.
<v Speaker 2>I signed everybody ahead, Haul Coogan, Randy Savage, Kevin Nash,
<v Speaker 2>Scot Haul, Roddy Piper. I signed Bobby Heenan and me
<v Speaker 2>and Gene just for the hell of it because I could,
<v Speaker 2>and Jared got Okay, those are real people, the people
<v Speaker 2>five Fishoff says, I took this little family business, this
<v Speaker 2>McMahon monopoly. I gave one big swift kick in the
<v Speaker 2>crotch and the crowd is now chanting shut the fuck up. Well,
<v Speaker 2>don't worry. He has like five more minutes of promo here.
<v Speaker 2>He says, There's one thing I really wanted to do
<v Speaker 2>when I ran WCW. One job I couldn't get done,
<v Speaker 2>one piece of talent I couldn't sign away. And I'm
<v Speaker 2>convinced that if I signed him, that's right that right now,
<v Speaker 2>Nitro would be on the air, and Vince McMahon, my
<v Speaker 2>new best friend, would be working for me. It's not
<v Speaker 2>gonna be the nWo that signs Triple H. Well, guys,
<v Speaker 2>I fuck, I yelled him. That would be me. So
<v Speaker 2>he wants to sign Triple AH from SmackDown to come
<v Speaker 2>over Raw, and that will begin the downfall of Raw
<v Speaker 2>for the rest of you in the back. Some of
<v Speaker 2>you had the chance to work with some mean for
<v Speaker 2>the first time. You'll agree. One thing you'll agree on
<v Speaker 2>is people generally like working for me. And that's not
<v Speaker 2>about the money. The WE needs me. You people deserve me.
<v Speaker 2>And there's one thing I want to promise. I am
<v Speaker 2>here to put the E in WWE. And he blows
<v Speaker 2>a kiss and then the Raw theme plays. I guess
<v Speaker 2>the remix. Dude, they must have immediately realized, Wow, ACDC
<v Speaker 2>is charging us a fucking arm and a legg fuck that.
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, Bischoff is now here. He is officially the
<v Speaker 2>Raw general manager. The nWo is dead. He wants to
<v Speaker 2>sign Triple H. Things are looking up.
<v Speaker 1>And Sean Staysa is watching backstage.
<v Speaker 2>Dude, Okay, the roster is backstage watching same spot they
<v Speaker 2>were in. Packed hows at the monitor and RVD is
<v Speaker 2>talking to Sean Staisyac. You can see it, and I
<v Speaker 2>can only imagine he says, Hey, you should go, you
<v Speaker 2>should spoil a bunch of shit and get fired, oh Roberson.
<v Speaker 2>And it goes over a little bit and Flair is
<v Speaker 2>talking to Finley, and I imagine Flair is saying, why
<v Speaker 2>are you bald? I mean, why the fucking I've never
<v Speaker 2>seen Finley bald? He's not bald. When he comes through,
<v Speaker 2>They're like, what the fuck? I mean crazy? Look are
<v Speaker 2>you stone cold? Too?
<v Speaker 1>So we go backstage. Bradshaw is talking to Undertaker and
<v Speaker 1>he says that Eric Bischoff can't be worse than that
<v Speaker 1>canny dude.
<v Speaker 2>We come into the segment and the first word you
<v Speaker 2>can like they're talking already, and the first word you
<v Speaker 2>can hear Taker say is jag off. Bischoff walks up
<v Speaker 2>and says Undertaker tying a meat man. I've been following
<v Speaker 2>your career for so long. I probably fired you. You were,
<v Speaker 2>weren't you mean? Mark Alie, You're the one guy I
<v Speaker 2>was really hoping to come to WW. But I guess
<v Speaker 2>loyalty and more to you than and if there's anything
<v Speaker 2>you ever need, anything at all. And then Bradshaw moves
<v Speaker 2>in the way and gets a Bischhap start Hi, Bradshaw, here,
<v Speaker 2>Hardcourt had bring and BiH say, yeah, that's nice anything anyway, Undertaker,
<v Speaker 2>anything you need law you call me, I'm there for you. Hey,
<v Speaker 2>don't don't fuck with me. I got a reputation.
<v Speaker 1>Hey, I'm Bradshaw. I'm the hardcore champion. Oh that's cool.
<v Speaker 1>I mean we had Norman Smiley as the HeartWare Championship
<v Speaker 1>was way better than those.
<v Speaker 2>She was cool as fun.
<v Speaker 1>So now we have Trish Stratus versus Molly Holly for
<v Speaker 1>the women's championship.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, Trish super over as always. Molly is of course
<v Speaker 2>a heel here with the hair. And one thing I
<v Speaker 2>noticed is they show a shot at Lawler and Jr.
<v Speaker 2>Here and behind them is the green Lantern fan.
<v Speaker 1>Oh I didn't even notice that.
<v Speaker 2>That's cool fucking r h Legend the green Lantern fan.
<v Speaker 2>I hope he was timing the matches.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I had to be. Trish does a kip up
<v Speaker 1>arm drag here that looks nice cool. Molly always has
<v Speaker 1>good heat here, she just dolls Trish. Trish is the
<v Speaker 1>Frankensteiner out of the corner and starts unloading some forearms.
<v Speaker 1>I can't Hey, I can't see I can't see anything
<v Speaker 1>right now.
<v Speaker 2>You meant a monitor, dude, So I don't know what happened,
<v Speaker 2>but Lawler complains about his monitor for the rest of
<v Speaker 2>the night. It feels like. He says, I can't I
<v Speaker 2>can't see Trish. Move over so I can see Trish,
<v Speaker 2>and Jara says, don't put your hand on my leg. Look,
<v Speaker 2>she's into purple tights.
<v Speaker 1>So Trish hits the chick kick, but Molly kicks out
<v Speaker 1>it too.
<v Speaker 2>Can fix my monitor, could you please?
<v Speaker 1>It's a championship mixed to shut up for three ships?
<v Speaker 2>So much monitor? You idiots?
<v Speaker 1>Hey just drops the accent, Hey, chill out.
<v Speaker 2>I'll get real fucking back. And then somebody, dude, at
<v Speaker 2>one point, I guess somebody comes in to fix it
<v Speaker 2>and Lawler, like middle of the match, completely calls him out.
<v Speaker 2>Where you're going?
<v Speaker 1>So Trish, Trish has the chick kick. Here Molly kicks
<v Speaker 1>out it too.
<v Speaker 2>It must be nice.
<v Speaker 1>Molly slabs Trish and it hits a back body drop.
<v Speaker 1>Molly goes to the razzle dazzle, but Trish reverses it
<v Speaker 1>into a victory roll out of the corner for two.
<v Speaker 2>That was awesome. I thought it was the finish.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that was awesome, really well done. Here Molly hits
<v Speaker 1>a backbreaker for a two, Trish goes for statisfaction, but
<v Speaker 1>Molly drops her with a belly to back and then
<v Speaker 1>uses the ropes and a pin for the three.
<v Speaker 2>Oh what the fuck?
<v Speaker 1>Solid TV match here? I actually enjoyed this. I was cool.
<v Speaker 2>I always enjoy Molly's work, especially in Trish's You know,
<v Speaker 2>Trish's over as fock. She's about to take over the
<v Speaker 2>goddamn world here. Nothing to complained about here. This is
<v Speaker 2>all solid stuff except for Joe Lower being mad about
<v Speaker 2>his uh fucking monitor. So at one point Jr. Says, well,
<v Speaker 2>Trish looking splendid here in her purple attire night, Molly
<v Speaker 2>looking like a domino. No, I can't see, so I
<v Speaker 2>don't super monitor.
<v Speaker 1>Which somebody get this guy a monitor.
<v Speaker 2>Or someone? Goodness, guy of him? Happy meal.
<v Speaker 1>So we go backstage. Rick Flair is walking and Eric
<v Speaker 1>Bischoff comes up to him.
<v Speaker 2>Says Flair, I bet you were a surprised as hell
<v Speaker 2>when you found out I was gonna be the new GM,
<v Speaker 2>and Claire says, surprise, this isn't the word I was
<v Speaker 2>thinking of, But if you don't mind, I got a
<v Speaker 2>big match coming up. Flair walks away and Becheff stares
<v Speaker 2>him down. Well I'm a GM now, I'll how about
<v Speaker 2>I just cancel that match in you're fired at the
<v Speaker 2>Bitch and you're wrestling Bradshaw. That'd be fucking like Big
<v Speaker 2>Man event and Bischoff just has grudges. Emily ah Flair,
<v Speaker 2>You're wrestling in a fucking six on one handicap match
<v Speaker 2>against the new n W O bringing patro moreles this
<v Speaker 2>and bring the guy in. It looks like stone.
<v Speaker 1>Listen.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's all dicks. Back at black Dad, He's a
<v Speaker 2>back black.
<v Speaker 1>Bitch over Ellis. Yes, would have been hot raw, I think, dude,
<v Speaker 1>I mean, sh it would have been awesome. Hell yeah,
<v Speaker 1>So you have Booker T versus Big Show up next.
<v Speaker 1>This is a hot feud. The last match they had
<v Speaker 1>was a count out.
<v Speaker 2>You got.
<v Speaker 1>So Big Show comes down here and hot starts on Booker.
<v Speaker 2>Big Show the deepest V singlet ever.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I mean his hot start was him coming to
<v Speaker 1>the apron, stepping over the top rope and then running
<v Speaker 1>at Booker T.
<v Speaker 2>And then missing his attack.
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if I've seen a over the top
<v Speaker 1>rope hot star before, but I I enjoyed that.
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate I mean, I guess it would have taken
<v Speaker 2>him an unbelieva amount of time to go underneath the
<v Speaker 2>bottom rope.
<v Speaker 1>It would have been awesome if he slid in like
<v Speaker 1>edge hold the matt.
<v Speaker 2>See, I was thinking the oppo sudden he tes going
<v Speaker 2>what I was thinking? He said, I thought he was
<v Speaker 2>like him getting stuck under the bottom rope with ruin. Yeah,
<v Speaker 2>fucking fat right.
<v Speaker 1>So Big Show hot starts on Booker. Booker fights back,
<v Speaker 1>but Big Show gets him in the corner with his
<v Speaker 1>size and chops him down.
<v Speaker 2>While this is going on, Jay Or on commentary is
<v Speaker 2>firing off updates about the nWo members after it has died. Well,
<v Speaker 2>you know the nWo is. No nWo members are here.
<v Speaker 2>You know, Sean gets the night off, nashes out for
<v Speaker 2>a torn quad for at least six months, and Xbox
<v Speaker 2>on a leave of absence. And I mean we had
<v Speaker 2>to fucking fire Scott hole. He was fishing me out.
<v Speaker 1>And who the hell knows where Pedro Morale is is?
<v Speaker 2>He no showed?
<v Speaker 1>Oh Cochine fucking shmackdown Tag team Champions right now?
<v Speaker 2>The fuck are we sucked to do the tangle?
<v Speaker 1>So Big Show beals Booker, which is nuts to see
<v Speaker 1>because Booker is.
<v Speaker 2>Huge yes, I mean he is, and they say it
<v Speaker 2>on a commentary like Booker is a big son of
<v Speaker 2>a bitch, but Big Show is obviously bigger.
<v Speaker 1>So Booker unloads on Big Show, but Big Show hits
<v Speaker 1>a sidewalk slam for a two. Booker gets Big Show
<v Speaker 1>down with the Harlem sidekick and then Cactus lines him
<v Speaker 1>over the top rope.
<v Speaker 2>Wow, I was I'm so glad you wrote it like that.
<v Speaker 2>I legit wrote all caps. Bookers fired the fuck up
<v Speaker 2>clothesline to show over the top cactus style.
<v Speaker 1>Dude, Yeah that was awesome.
<v Speaker 2>I mean they really went I don't know if he
<v Speaker 2>meant to. Yeah, it was dope, though he said he
<v Speaker 2>had to me. You know, it was sweet.
<v Speaker 1>So Big Show runs his knee into the steps by accident,
<v Speaker 1>and Booker grabs a chair to hit Big Show but
<v Speaker 1>misses and hits the post.
<v Speaker 2>I mean he doesn't he doesn't care about the fucking match.
<v Speaker 2>He cares about killing the Big Show because the kicked
<v Speaker 2>him out of the group that he loved the nWo because.
<v Speaker 1>There was a count out. So Big Show throws the
<v Speaker 1>chair in but Booker grabs it. Booker goes to use it,
<v Speaker 1>but Big Show straight up punches it.
<v Speaker 2>Holy shit, Like, what a crazy sound that made?
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean he punched as hard as he could.
<v Speaker 2>That was awesome.
<v Speaker 1>Then Show lines them and Booker Rakishi bumps. Big Show
<v Speaker 1>then throws the ref out of the ring home hits
<v Speaker 1>Booker twice with the chair.
<v Speaker 2>Then the bell rings DQ and Booker sorry, Big Show
<v Speaker 2>looks around, surprised by this. He cannot believe he got
<v Speaker 2>dq' de here.
<v Speaker 1>Nick Patrick crawled over to the timekeeper and said, ring it.
<v Speaker 2>Ring the bell, Come on Q, any one of them?
<v Speaker 2>Match sucked.
<v Speaker 1>Big Show then choke slams Booker t through the announce stable.
<v Speaker 2>Dude, They're on the outside and Booker is uh. He's
<v Speaker 2>trying to fight back, but Big Show goozles them, and
<v Speaker 2>Big Show has him goozled. He turns to the side,
<v Speaker 2>look at then ounstable. He looks at JayR and says,
<v Speaker 2>better move your barbecue sauce and pigs Booker up in
<v Speaker 2>the jokes the table. No, not on my monitor. I'm fun.
<v Speaker 2>I've had enough. I'm absolutely had a fucking up.
<v Speaker 1>Dude.
<v Speaker 2>He had now no modelors and his Barbie saw Us
<v Speaker 2>is fucking just everywhere, I guess.
<v Speaker 1>So we go backstage Brock Lesner is back here curling
<v Speaker 1>a truss. This is awesome.
<v Speaker 2>This, I mean awesome visual, but not as awesome as
<v Speaker 2>before I knew how light trustes were.
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that looks like the heaviest thing I've ever seen.
<v Speaker 1>I mean, to be fair, it probably is kind of heavy, but.
<v Speaker 2>I mean that one is probably gnarly. You're right, that's true.
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, he's fucking curling this gigantic trust piece. And
<v Speaker 2>Hayman says, they can say, they say everything can happen
<v Speaker 2>in WWE. Eric Bischoff, You're gonna be the internal champion
<v Speaker 2>of Vengeance. You're gonna be the undefeated champion at SummerSlam.
<v Speaker 2>I couldn't have manipulated us into a better negotiating position
<v Speaker 2>than this. And Brock says, that's what I pay you for, Paul,
<v Speaker 2>And he turns it aside and just throws this gigantic
<v Speaker 2>trust piece like into the wild, and I can only
<v Speaker 2>imagine it hit three stage hands and they all fell
<v Speaker 2>over like bowling ball bins.
<v Speaker 1>So Jr. And Lawler are sitting here ringside with the
<v Speaker 1>table broke. It sucks, and they paid tribute to Jimmy Miranda,
<v Speaker 1>who has passed away here recently.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he was the head of arena merchandise sales. I
<v Speaker 2>don't know how old he was, but like they I
<v Speaker 2>think he was forty. That's pretty fucking cool that they
<v Speaker 2>did this. Yeah, and like I thought this was very nice,
<v Speaker 2>Like they did like they had an on screen graphic
<v Speaker 2>and they talked about how cool he was and everyone
<v Speaker 2>loved him and it was it was a nice little
<v Speaker 2>touching thing there. I like that.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, me too. So yeah, last week on Raw, the
<v Speaker 1>straw that broke the Camel's back. Some say it was
<v Speaker 1>Kevin Nash getting injured. Some say it was Bradshaw and
<v Speaker 1>Tris Stratus versus Christopher Nowinsky and Jackie gata Man.
<v Speaker 2>I mean, like I think, like it's regardless one of
<v Speaker 2>the worst matches ever, right, I.
<v Speaker 1>Mean, if you look the match up, the only thing
<v Speaker 1>you will see is people saying this has gotta be
<v Speaker 1>one of the worst matches of all time. I'm not
<v Speaker 1>gonna believe it's one of the worst matches of all
<v Speaker 1>time until I see it with my eyes. So Christopher
<v Speaker 1>now Winsky versus Bradshaw, Billy Kidman and Tory Wilson are
<v Speaker 1>going to be at oz Fest two thousand and two.
<v Speaker 1>In Boston.
<v Speaker 2>Dude, I saw that. What the fuck are they going
<v Speaker 2>to do there?
<v Speaker 1>Chill out, hang out, do the thing.
<v Speaker 2>It's like, go on stage with mud Vein, eat a bat, dude.
<v Speaker 2>Mudven's awesome, dude, Yeah.
<v Speaker 1>Mud Vein is awesome. I've been listening to them a
<v Speaker 1>lot recently.
<v Speaker 2>Dude, I mean like they're fucking great. Like they're a
<v Speaker 2>sweet new metal band.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we saw we saw a mud Vain sign on
<v Speaker 1>Watch This during Big Show versus Aky Bono, and I said, wow,
<v Speaker 1>I've been listened to Mudvain in a while. So I've
<v Speaker 1>been listening to him like the past week.
<v Speaker 2>He's been sending me songs.
<v Speaker 1>So Bradshaw has the custom Texas Hardcore title.
<v Speaker 2>I like that.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and it comes down here with the cow bell
<v Speaker 1>of course. Nowinsky grabs a mic and says, yeah, I
<v Speaker 1>don't want to do a hardcore match.
<v Speaker 2>Hey, I I don't like this situation.
<v Speaker 1>Shouldn't want to be a wrestler.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Can I like quit? Like is it too late
<v Speaker 2>to quit? Can I do that? Yep? But I mean
<v Speaker 2>he pretty much says, listen, I don't want a hardcore match.
<v Speaker 2>These people don't want a hardcore match, and they and
<v Speaker 2>they crowd like, you know, he says, these people don't
<v Speaker 2>want to see a Harvard graduate get pummeled with trash
<v Speaker 2>cans and street signs, and they cheer, and Chris says, yeah,
<v Speaker 2>they're cheering. Yeah, Chris, we don't want to see that.
<v Speaker 2>I thought that was awesome. It was good. He says,
<v Speaker 2>I have a proposition for you, so simple that you
<v Speaker 2>can even understand that. I'll allow you to beat me.
<v Speaker 2>I'll lay down for the one, two, three, that simple.
<v Speaker 2>You retain your title. I don't get hurt. What do
<v Speaker 2>you say?
<v Speaker 1>So he lays down the bell rings, Bradshaw goes to
<v Speaker 1>grab him. Newinsky goes for the roll up.
<v Speaker 2>I'll mean that's classic. Is classic.
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this guy's a beast. What a heel? He
<v Speaker 1>gets a two, So Bradshaw spear tackles.
<v Speaker 2>Then he like goes right through him.
<v Speaker 1>So Bradshaw spear tackles Nowinsky and the second he does,
<v Speaker 1>the hardcore Championship graphic comes up at the same time,
<v Speaker 1>so it sounds like he tackled him through the ring
<v Speaker 1>because there's like the crunch of the graphic.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it was cool.
<v Speaker 1>So Bradshaw boots him, sends him to the outside, grabs
<v Speaker 1>the steps and then hits them with the steps.
<v Speaker 2>Like, after he does that, he grabs a chair and
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, oh my god, Like this is gonna be bad.
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna brain him.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he's like he's dead.
<v Speaker 1>So in retaliation, Kris Newinsky jumps the guardrail and runs
<v Speaker 1>away Bradshaw.
<v Speaker 2>That's the smartest thing he could have done. I mean,
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure it was planned, but in my brain, like
<v Speaker 2>he sees Bradshaw with a chair. Fuck that, I'm out
<v Speaker 2>of here.
<v Speaker 1>Kris Newinsky is the realist character on this show.
<v Speaker 2>He is He doesn't want to get hurt. He doesn't
<v Speaker 2>really want to be a wrestler, just payswell.
<v Speaker 1>So he jumps the guardrail and Bradshaw chases him down.
<v Speaker 1>He hits him with a garbage can him into the back.
<v Speaker 1>He hits Nowinsky with a cookie sheet and then decapitates him.
<v Speaker 2>Dude, Okay, he does decapitating Where Why the fuck was
<v Speaker 2>there a cookie sheet there? Like it was on a forklift.
<v Speaker 1>This is the WWF. Why would there not be a sheet?
<v Speaker 2>I guess that's true. He does to capitate him. I
<v Speaker 2>legit didn't know this thing like this spot existed outside
<v Speaker 2>of video games.
<v Speaker 1>I mean this was one of the more brutal things
<v Speaker 1>I've ever seen. He legit slams a case, the lid
<v Speaker 1>of a case, a Roadie box, yes, as hard as
<v Speaker 1>he can, on the top of his fucking neck.
<v Speaker 2>Like Nowinsky was leaning inside of it, and he slams
<v Speaker 2>this thing down legit video game style. But like it
<v Speaker 2>was disgusting. It was brutal.
<v Speaker 1>I mean, like the way that he is, yeah, the
<v Speaker 1>way that he's like hanging on to the box afterwards,
<v Speaker 1>it looks like he legit just killed guy.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like gnarly, gnarly. I mean, I guess they were like, oh,
<v Speaker 2>you gotta give him something.
<v Speaker 1>So what naturally would happen after a man gets decapitated, Well,
<v Speaker 1>he would be attacked by Johnny the Bull Stambollio.
<v Speaker 2>Of course. Yeah, Johnny the Bull runs in and brains
<v Speaker 2>Bradshaw with a two by four, like breaks it over.
<v Speaker 1>His head, I mean, swings it as hard as he
<v Speaker 1>possibly can. Here.
<v Speaker 2>I bet the boys all day we're all taking turns
<v Speaker 2>coming up to Johnny the Bull and telling him, you
<v Speaker 2>gotta give it to Bradshaw, Like if you don't do it,
<v Speaker 2>like you're fucking he'll kill you. Yeah, Like you have
<v Speaker 2>to hit him as hard as you possibly can. And
<v Speaker 2>he believed it.
<v Speaker 1>And he did it. He brought his own ref and
<v Speaker 1>he pinned Bradshaw to win the hardcore title.
<v Speaker 2>Yes, and JR.
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, Johnny the bull Stamboli. He just he
<v Speaker 1>won the title. And Jerry Lawlers says, who.
<v Speaker 2>D j R? Definitely the first time he says it, says,
<v Speaker 2>gosh that Johnny de Bullshrambolish. You know it's Johnny bull Stampbollie.
<v Speaker 2>We got a new Harker champion. His response to all
<v Speaker 2>this saying, who is just repeating his name? I was
<v Speaker 2>trying to bull Stampolli Tramboli.
<v Speaker 1>So we go backstage. Big Show comes into Bischoff's office
<v Speaker 1>and hugs him. He's very happy.
<v Speaker 2>He's very sweaty as well, which Bichoff sells and Bechell says, hey, Giant,
<v Speaker 2>what's going on? Hey? Big Show says, what a surprise?
<v Speaker 2>We what do you do? How? Why? When? And Bit says,
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what I'm here, and she says, listen, man,
<v Speaker 2>Kevin's hurt and everything happened with Scott. We don't got
<v Speaker 2>to talk about it. Everything's going on with the nWo
<v Speaker 2>nWo is not here. I thought I was screwed and
<v Speaker 2>a my own, But now Miracle you're here. I know
<v Speaker 2>it's your first night, but I got a favor to ask.
<v Speaker 2>I got this huge pain in my ass and Bischoff
<v Speaker 2>looks at his ass and says, well, that's a pretty
<v Speaker 2>huge pain. God, you're so fat. Jesus the show says,
<v Speaker 2>you know my pain is it's booker T. First time
<v Speaker 2>it was a count out. Oh my god, Now a DQ,
<v Speaker 2>Well that was I mean, I imagine both of these were
<v Speaker 2>your fucking fault.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it seems like it.
<v Speaker 2>Well, that's why he's thinking of vengeance. Booker T versus
<v Speaker 2>a big show, no count outs, no DQ's, and that
<v Speaker 2>way he can sell it for good. And Bichaf says,
<v Speaker 2>you just put him through a table. What make you
<v Speaker 2>think I'll make it this Sunday and just says, well,
<v Speaker 2>if he can, I want to be the last I want,
<v Speaker 2>wanting to put the nail in his coffin. Well, Vampiro
<v Speaker 2>doesn't work here yet.
<v Speaker 1>So and Bischoff has, uh, well, if you had a
<v Speaker 1>count out and a DQ sounds like this feud sucks.
<v Speaker 2>Beecheof says, you know what we got history. We're kind
<v Speaker 2>of like blood, we'll do it. I'll talk to Vince
<v Speaker 2>and show's very happy. Thank you so much. Whoa booker?
<v Speaker 2>T and Bischoff wipes sweat off of himself because there's
<v Speaker 2>fucking just so much sweat. I mean, this guy is
<v Speaker 2>just iormous. What a fat fat man? Uh. He wipes
<v Speaker 2>himself off, and then he picks up the cover of
<v Speaker 2>the Triple H DVD that's on a side table and
<v Speaker 2>he starts. I guess it was already in the DVD player.
<v Speaker 2>He turns it on and he watches Triple H's Madison
<v Speaker 2>Square Garden Return, which I don't think was too far
<v Speaker 2>before this, or maybe it was, I don't remember. I
<v Speaker 2>guess it was long enough that they put it on
<v Speaker 2>a DVD. But we reviewed that episode we did, which
<v Speaker 2>she returned, so you can go check that out as well.
<v Speaker 1>And he was watching the retro sync. Okay, fuck, now,
<v Speaker 1>these guys are funny. We gotta get them in the nWo.
<v Speaker 2>I like, call him, call him now, they've won what
<v Speaker 2>three years in a row Company of the Year.
<v Speaker 1>Now these guys can book.
<v Speaker 2>That would be fucking awesome. That would be awesome. And
<v Speaker 2>that's you know, I guess that luck in a time.
<v Speaker 1>Machine would have just Channa b w o at it
<v Speaker 1>a day, maybe got a big ass sailich.
<v Speaker 2>We're at oz Fest. Actually fuck this show?

<v Speaker 2>If Bishop would have said that in this promo, that
<v Speaker 2>would have been the best fucking thing ever.
<v Speaker 1>Wow, Bischoff coming to w w E and instantly like

<v Speaker 1>That could be anybody. That's true.
<v Speaker 2>I was triple H.
<v Speaker 1>So Bischoff says, hey, man, how you doing.
<v Speaker 2>Johnny the bullseeers saying I whack Branshaw with that two boy,

<v Speaker 2>out of nowhere, no clips Bradshaw who runs in House
<v Speaker 2>of Fire and it kills Johnny Stramboli with a clothesline
<v Speaker 2>for Bell and pins him and wins the hardcore title back.
<v Speaker 1>This is legendary. The Bradshaw and no clip on Johnny
<v Speaker 1>stamp Boley is like one of the best Bradshaw moments
<v Speaker 1>in w w F history. I mean, he dude winds
<v Speaker 1>it up and gives it to him.
<v Speaker 2>That like, imagine being Johnny Stamboli having to do this
<v Speaker 2>promo and off screen you see Bradshaw just fucking revving
<v Speaker 2>up to kill you.
<v Speaker 1>I'd like to imagine he ran like all the way
<v Speaker 1>to the parking lot.
<v Speaker 2>He got a bunch of an he got it turn
<v Speaker 2>off the meto just happen to get there at the
<v Speaker 2>right time and blow Johnny's Dimpley's head off. Wow, that'd
<v Speaker 2>be fuck. That's okay. I like that better. So he
<v Speaker 2>fucking kills him with this thing, wins ard Goo title.
<v Speaker 2>He looks down at Johnny strum Bowlie and says, walking
<v Speaker 2>a wrong you punk ass. He holds it tight up
<v Speaker 2>to Bischof safe and says, as Bradshaw Hardcore Champion.
<v Speaker 1>So backstage, Brock Lesner is here with Hayman. Hayman's hyping
<v Speaker 1>him up for his match tonight. As Taker comes into
<v Speaker 1>the scene and goes face to face.
<v Speaker 2>With Brock, Yeah, he says, uh, six days from coming
<v Speaker 2>down on College Champion and SummerSlam, you come the own
<v Speaker 2>Dispute Champion. Taker walks up behind Brock because Hayman's been
<v Speaker 2>obviously talking shit all night, and and then Haymon, of course,
<v Speaker 2>trying to be a snipe like a conniving bastard kids.
<v Speaker 2>Petunia says, I want take an Undertaker on balf of
<v Speaker 2>my client. It's an honor and brocks his paw and
<v Speaker 2>uh and he says, after you take her, and Paper
<v Speaker 2>says no, no, I insists after you, and watch out.
<v Speaker 2>Bradshaw's running around. He's I mean, he's got unbelievable like
<v Speaker 2>fucking come take your head off. Run.
<v Speaker 1>I like to think that Bradshaw just runs around the
<v Speaker 1>arena just looking for people that are standing there waiting
<v Speaker 1>to get closeline.
<v Speaker 2>Dude, you know when you fucking go to the backstage
<v Speaker 2>area and shut your mouth that you can run the corridor. Yes,
<v Speaker 2>just do that, Bradshaw.
<v Speaker 1>Dude. Imagine if that was online and you just see
<v Speaker 1>Bradshaw coming around the corner. Oh fuck. So now it
<v Speaker 1>was time for the featured bout of the evening. Yes,
<v Speaker 1>Undertaker and brock lesnar versus Rick Flair and Rob Van Dam.
<v Speaker 2>Main event match here. Uh Brock, as we mentioned already,
<v Speaker 2>one King of the Ring. He has a shot against
<v Speaker 2>RVDA for the intercomal title at the pay per view
<v Speaker 2>last Monday on Raw RVDY was chasing Sewn Michael's up
<v Speaker 2>the ramp because Sewn Michaels is I guess fucking with them.
<v Speaker 2>NW is probably fucking with them. That's dead now, But
<v Speaker 2>he was set up because brock Lessler comes out and
<v Speaker 2>closed lines RVD on the state Agent fives them on
<v Speaker 2>the stage. I was last week. Also, by the way,
<v Speaker 2>James WB Vengeance brought to you Subway.
<v Speaker 1>Get those v cuts Sandwich.
<v Speaker 2>We've watched an unbelieva amount of ross and smackdowns and
<v Speaker 2>shows in general where there's a tag man event with
<v Speaker 2>top guys and it's always like a all right, we
<v Speaker 2>can plus tend this because if there's usually nothing going on,
<v Speaker 2>this match is like great, this is a great match.
<v Speaker 1>It is is actually really good. I enjoyed it myself.
<v Speaker 2>Like the work they do here is all super solid.
<v Speaker 2>The story they tell here is great. Flair is the
<v Speaker 2>get heat on guy for rvd's hot tag and Flair
<v Speaker 2>is taking everything.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Flair looks great, all his hopes are fantastic, the
<v Speaker 1>crowd's buying all of them. Sticks to his character. Everyone
<v Speaker 1>sticks to their character. Rick Flair waits on the ramp
<v Speaker 1>for the more over Rob Van damn crazy. That's nuts, man,
<v Speaker 1>what a moment in time.
<v Speaker 2>I know, like again, you had him, you had him
<v Speaker 2>right there.
<v Speaker 1>Right there. I mean all you had to do just
<v Speaker 1>win the elimination chamber.
<v Speaker 2>Just maybe keep Hunter on SmackDown. Yeah, but I don't know,
<v Speaker 2>maybe SmackDown couldn't have been the smack.
<v Speaker 1>Get him off SmackDown. Now, get him off SmackDown. Now
<v Speaker 1>we have Johnny the Bullstramboli.
<v Speaker 2>Do they do?
<v Speaker 1>Get him?
<v Speaker 2>They do any fucking mother f and bombs RAI.
<v Speaker 1>Was one of the best big card acts and smack
<v Speaker 1>Down history. No shakes, his ass, comes out, goes to
<v Speaker 1>the ramp, dances with the hat pirate bumps dude. Wow, yeah,
<v Speaker 1>that's nuts so RVD. Yeah, one of the most over
<v Speaker 1>guys on the show. Very awesome to see and it
<v Speaker 1>made him match a whole bunch better. Here Flair and
<v Speaker 1>Taker start off.
<v Speaker 2>Uh.
<v Speaker 1>Taker goes to take Flair to the corner for old school,
<v Speaker 1>but Flair bites his arm and the chops him down.
<v Speaker 1>Just good work, man, Yeah, just awesome.
<v Speaker 2>Bites his arm and Taker goes, ah, yeah that heard
<v Speaker 2>did it? Taker selling big for all of Flair's chops
<v Speaker 2>and shit even like made them even better too.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it did. RVD hits a cross body on Taker
<v Speaker 1>for a two, and now he's in huge RVD chants
<v Speaker 1>here and he's in the ring with Undertaker and brock Lesner.
<v Speaker 1>Huge RVD chance.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah even more than like Flair.
<v Speaker 1>He's getting pops a bunch of foam fingers in the crowd.
<v Speaker 2>Was is this guy in the front row with the
<v Speaker 2>fucking both the double foam fingers doing the dawn RVD kicks?
<v Speaker 1>Take her down? He tags in Flair, who locks in
<v Speaker 1>the figure four.
<v Speaker 2>WHOA.
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't believe that was done so early, but I
<v Speaker 1>guess with the way the match was structure, they decided
<v Speaker 1>to go ahead and get that out here.
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, because doesn't really get much back until like
<v Speaker 2>the back end when he's firing off shit. But I
<v Speaker 2>thought that was awesome, especially because they do the gimmick
<v Speaker 2>where Taker goes down his shoulders down the count two
<v Speaker 2>and he does the Undertaker sit up and sit up goozling.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, that feels like into the match stretch spot. Yes,
<v Speaker 1>but super regardless, Flair low blows Taker as the ref
<v Speaker 1>is looking up at Taker because the because Undertaker is
<v Speaker 1>so tall that the ref has to look up and
<v Speaker 1>then fucking low blows them and punches him down. That
<v Speaker 1>ship was so funny.
<v Speaker 2>He's tak HER's on his knees and Flare's piecing them up.
<v Speaker 1>So Flair hits the roAP and Taker goozles them and
<v Speaker 1>choke slands them for a two that RVD has to
<v Speaker 1>break up. See this is all good because like Flair's
<v Speaker 1>taking all these fucking shortcuts and he's biting them and
<v Speaker 1>he's low blowing them, He's punching them down. But then
<v Speaker 1>when Taker finally gets him, he's never kicking out. RVD
<v Speaker 1>is always breaking it up, right, Yes, So just like
<v Speaker 1>I said, super good work here. Lesner comes in and
<v Speaker 1>hits some corner spears on Flair, and Flair is selling
<v Speaker 1>it like he just got like shot in the mid section.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah he's I mean, they're killing them here all.
<v Speaker 1>Also Lesner is cheesing these corner spears. Okay, that's his
<v Speaker 1>whole damn move set. At this point, they do look gnarly.
<v Speaker 1>They probably saw that him do it once and said
<v Speaker 1>usually keep them coming all the time.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.
<v Speaker 1>So Lesner hits two backbreakers on Flair. Flair rolls to
<v Speaker 1>the apron and Taker hits a leg drop on him,
<v Speaker 1>Like I was, awesome, dude, Wow, what the fuck? This
<v Speaker 1>is good?
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?
<v Speaker 1>Wow, this is so natural.
<v Speaker 2>I know, like the crowd even boot him because, like,
<v Speaker 2>you know, they want to fuck with Taker, but he's
<v Speaker 2>fucking with Flair and the ref was distracted so he
<v Speaker 2>didn't get to see Taker hit the leg drop, and
<v Speaker 2>that's Taker's move.
<v Speaker 1>So Taker throws Flair back in from the outside and
<v Speaker 1>Lesner goes for the pin, but it's a two uh.
<v Speaker 1>Flair tries to fight back, but Undertaker's got them soup bones.
<v Speaker 2>I mean Flaire's chops. Like I said, Taker's selling them
<v Speaker 2>like fucking death. But you know, Taker's take her and
<v Speaker 2>he's punching the shit out of him. There was one
<v Speaker 2>here that happens where Flair sends take her in the
<v Speaker 2>ropes and then throws a chop that take her, which
<v Speaker 2>I was like, he throws it high too, Yeah he does,
<v Speaker 2>and then like hits the Taker hits the diving Glariat
<v Speaker 2>was just like, Okay, that's.
<v Speaker 1>Dude, I mean, this is awesome, So take her line.
<v Speaker 1>Flair rolls over towards the ropes. Taker misses the elbow drop.
<v Speaker 1>Flare rolls over under the bottom rope to the apron
<v Speaker 1>stands up and then I pokes Undertaker and then runs
<v Speaker 1>over to the top rope to try to hit that
<v Speaker 1>cross body. If I could just hit this crossbody, I
<v Speaker 1>can win.
<v Speaker 2>It's coming and the crowd's there.
<v Speaker 1>For it, and then Taker cuts him off and Taker
<v Speaker 1>hits a superplex for it too. That RVD has to
<v Speaker 1>break up. All this shit is gonna beat Flair, like
<v Speaker 1>all of it's beating him.
<v Speaker 2>I was like, Okay, he's taking Deadly Driver like he
<v Speaker 2>you know, Taker's just throwing them off.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Sure.
<v Speaker 2>Taker then goes to the top and superplexes Flair. I said, wow,
<v Speaker 2>like unbelievable.
<v Speaker 1>So Lesner comes in and continues the heat on Flair.
<v Speaker 1>It's a great power slam. I mean, he just gets
<v Speaker 1>him up there, dude.
<v Speaker 2>He does. He fucking nails him, and then fucking Brock
<v Speaker 2>rushes Flair in the corner. Flair moves, Brock takes the
<v Speaker 2>post Flair back supplex to Brock.
<v Speaker 1>Dude, and Brock was going way back for him.
<v Speaker 2>I know, he was gone, Like I mean, I was like, wow,
<v Speaker 2>flairbags suplex to Brock. Lesler is a crazy visual, Like
<v Speaker 2>I don't even know Flair even knew how to do it.
<v Speaker 2>It seems so odd.
<v Speaker 1>Dude. He hits it, goes for the pen, Lesner launches
<v Speaker 1>him off.
<v Speaker 2>Of him over the ref. Yeah.
<v Speaker 1>Lesner tags Taker, Flare tags RVD RVD. Yeah, I mean
<v Speaker 1>RVD has been waiting to get in this match for
<v Speaker 1>a minute. RVD hits a spinning heel kick on Taker,
<v Speaker 1>Shotgun drop kicks Lesner off, monkey flips. Taker hits rolling
<v Speaker 1>Thunder for a two, but Lesner stops him. RVD then
<v Speaker 1>hits the sid kick off the top on Brock, a
<v Speaker 1>split legging moon Salt, but Taker breaks out with the
<v Speaker 1>leg drop.
<v Speaker 2>Dude, Taker taking a monkey flip is just crazy in
<v Speaker 2>its own I think like he was.
<v Speaker 1>He was down with r VD said this ship's cool.
<v Speaker 2>He was like, get your shit, uf bro, like goddamn.
<v Speaker 1>I don't think Lesner was the legal man.
<v Speaker 2>Here either, but all right, maybe not.
<v Speaker 1>I think JR. Says that is not the legal man.
<v Speaker 2>I can't see anyone.
<v Speaker 1>So Taker goes for the last ride, but Flair lines
<v Speaker 1>him out of the ring. F five's Rick Flair, but
<v Speaker 1>RVD super kicks him and the crowd goes nuts.
<v Speaker 2>Because they know, yes, they know what's common.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, RVD goes over to the corner, he jumps up
<v Speaker 1>for the five star, hits sit flush but Taker is
<v Speaker 1>the legal man. So Taker comes in and he hits
<v Speaker 1>the last ride on r v D and gets the win.
<v Speaker 2>I mean, tremendous work here, fantastic, lastic, what a great
<v Speaker 2>TV main event. Ye, this hits all cylinders. Everyone gets
<v Speaker 2>over all their shit in. Brock looks a monster. Arvidy
<v Speaker 2>is the fucking guy Taker still, you know, I mean,
<v Speaker 2>he's the champ, so he's getting his shit in and
<v Speaker 2>Flair Flair took so much heat. He's like, you know,
<v Speaker 2>the old vent and he's getting beat down and everyone
<v Speaker 2>wants to see him persevere, but also tag out to RVD,
<v Speaker 2>who's cool.
<v Speaker 1>Shit. Yeah, I mean, just great stuff here. I enjoyed it.
<v Speaker 1>Very simple but very good. Earl. Earl fucking it up
<v Speaker 1>and counting when he wasn't a legal man was funny.
<v Speaker 1>But I guess they had to to make the fish stretch.
<v Speaker 1>So Taker holds up the title here, but Brock lesnar
<v Speaker 1>assaults him from behind.
<v Speaker 2>No, Brock jumps him because of course that was the
<v Speaker 2>plan all along, and he hits the f five on Taker,
<v Speaker 2>which looks nuts because Taker is gigantic.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he spins with it too.
<v Speaker 2>He does, and even in the sailing commentary, holy fuck,
<v Speaker 2>that was crazy as hell. Brock picks up the underspeated title.
<v Speaker 2>He stares at it, and he drapes it over takers
<v Speaker 2>back a little little sign there for things to come.
<v Speaker 2>That's not over yet. It's because Bischoff. We go backstage.
<v Speaker 2>Bischoff is in his office still and Bischoff says, nicely done,
<v Speaker 2>I guess to himself, or he's watching Deadline.
