want to let you know a little update. It was really an update on
deathlock, as in us in our lives personally, we're going to Vega and
it's not even all of us. You're right, forgotten to not that I
can't go to supposed to be there, Yeah he was, and then he
said he said he let go. No that should you know? Videos are
coming like a month or so. I don't know, a week or something.
Not brother, it'll be cool. I'm not sure. Yeah, I
guess we'll find out. I have like a little personal update. Whoa yeah
yeah, for the for the pod um, I have a goatee. Whoa
yeah yeah yeah. I thought I would go into my horse hogan era.
Soa you're on camera. They sorry right now, I am no, you're
not. I am yeah, I am as inn. I saw you deep
and you look different than that. I look different than I weekend A good
seat, dude. I don't even know this. I haven't even seen this
date. Yeah, I'm on my horse Hogan. Shit, So don't talk
to me. It's all I'm gonna say about that, all right, don't
me. I like these kind of updates. I don't got anything like that
for you. I don't got any no big I still look normal for you.
Guys. What's that? I went out and got up a day.
I thought you were going to fart into the mica. It really did,
Yeah, I did, dude. Installed It wasn't like a good one.
It wasn't like a good one. I should have got like the heated seat,
but I don't want to spend a ton of money. Sure they are,
they get pricey. It's just in Yeah, it was really easy.
It was like two steps. Did you install it correctly? Because I think
you're supposed to use some sort of tape on the on the Is that right?
I thought you just about that. Only it's leaking. That's on the
teflon tape is only leaking. Oh, I thought you to do it to
make sure it doesn't leak, just in case. No, you check it
out and if it doesn't, like, I still have the tape, so
if you like, I can you put like a little t gimmick on it,
you know, like a gimmick that's where the boys. Sorry, So
yeah, you put a little gimmick that you hook it up to your regular
water and then you could just turn it to the side. And the instruction
that says that when you set it up you have to test it like with
like to make sure it's it tastes right. You do that. Non story.
So I got kids. Oh my daughter turned into the long way and
it squirted her in the face. She was like checking it out. Is
it like? What's because there's like a you can turn it to the right
and it'll like spray down in the toilet and like clean the toilet. They'll
turn it the other way, it'll spread the water on. Explain this to
me, explains to me. Is its powerful as that like the Japanese toilet,
But this doesn't have like a vout like you just turn it in as
like full plus. Does it do the job? Yeah? It does.
It's good. It's not like he did or anything. So, but it
doesn't more more powerful than a japan one. Um, I'm not sure.
Like probably like the electric one probably is like added pressure, right, I'm
assuming yeah, I was thinking, yeah, yeah, in my vision,
I guess you would just buy a totoe toilet right, no way, which
you could do what come on your own? You could, but I'm not
going to But yeah, he's not. He's not in the business for a
tote toilet. That's like a Yeah, that's like a your toilet only thing.
That's not that's like a toto toilet is like an investment. Bro.
It's a thousand bucks probably. I guess it's not too crazy for a forever
toilet. It's probably a thousand crazy. Yeah, but I don't know.
Maybe if you get the imported one, it's like a car, you know,
you gotta pay like import fee or something. Oh. Yeah, they
don't sell totos in the matter. No, they do, but I don't
know if they're If they don't, I don't know if they have the Japanese
features privacy. I see one. I'm here with the elongated bowl if you
want that one. So your ass is like super sweet right now? It
is super sweet right now. That's awesome. Man, that's yet. Damn,
I didn't really bring nothing to the table. Your boys you have one
though, Johnny, you said you had no. Yeah, I just never
said it, dude, funny enough, I have one too. It just
I never set it up. I didn't say it, did I didn't set
it up because I I didn't want to suck up the tape thing. You
don't know. You're not gonna mess up the tape. You don't know if
you use the table my dad was gonna. I don't have a good excuse.
I just didn't want to do it. Oh yeah, it's like the
easiest set up ever. You can't mess it up. I sway, Well,
what if I hit my song in the face with it? That's just
for fun. That's just a good Friday night for me. Oh hell yeah,

I don't think. Yeah, rights like a crazy plane where his hair
grows really fast. I wish Tony, here's a here's a fucking update.

Oh yeah, a lot of people. A lot of people decided recently to
go to Japan and watch the whale, which is like, so people I
see do this. Yeah, that's a lot right, coming back from Japan,
and there was somebody else watching the Japan to watch it. Yeah,
they had to watch on the same aircraft that we did too. It's fucked
up. It's that's crazy. Thank you guys man. You know. Really
it's a hell of a movie. It's a long one. You gotta get

All right, now it's time to the Patreon Q and A Tony.
Right, well, we got a first question here from your boy Straw asks
do you prefer doing reviews on good shows or bad shows? Which is an
interesting question. I think I enjoy both. I mean, I I like
watching a show that I like more, but like, you know, some
of our best stuff is the bad shows. So it's tough to say.
Yeah, no if I if I go into the show and I'm ready to
fucking fire off, like yeah, like it probably makes for a better episode.
Um yeah, I think that I enjoy watching the better episodes more.
Sure, I mean maybe I enjoy watching the better episodes more and I enjoy
talking about the shitty episode. Yeah, okay, I would say that that
was only one. I just look, come on now you can have that
first one though. Making his debut and w B two K twenty four peas
before pack, Oh my, could it be it's the big urn asks.
Sorry, it's a long one. Okay. Where does the infamous ski wo
originate? Have we ever? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, it was a
long time ago. Yeah. Sure, some people might not know where James,
Where did ski wo come from? Marcus? It was a Marcus Yeah,
So for people who don't know, Marcus was originally part of Deadlock and
uh that was just something he would do ski woo and they enjoyed it.
Someone, Yeah, we saw it was funny. That was like his thing.
And then I was like, I'm gonna do it too. Yeah,
we stole it, and then we had ski Woo and ski Woo. At
one point we had ski Woo was that's a trench is different? Who had
e wo too? I think of it as we're carrying the torch. Yeah,
of course it's it's get on in this podcast forever. Yeah, you
gotta give DAPs to him, of course. You know, so Skio was
not just became the intro of the show a h There was also Yo that
was also yo. Yeah, yeah, well he was there that episode as
well when he said he was on a couple episodes saying yo, yeah,
that was a long time ago. That was forgotten era uh skill. Speaking
of ski Woad, Jesse Quatch asks, what in the world happened to Susie?
This is like og dipper ship here. That fucking bitch, dude,
She's still being a bitch. Stop dude, No, stop, She's still
a fucking bitch. Have you heard the song Susie's She's always a bit fuck
Susie? Yeah, Susie, Yeah, that was by Matt Damon. Yeah,
she's she's just you know, still still rocking. Yeah, man,
there somewhere. Yeah, she's still doing her thing. It wasn't far our
problem though, Like we didn't. I didn't mind Susie. No, she's
just a bitch. I mean that's a good thing. Everyone's got their ving,
you know, like the Rockets people's champ. He's a bitch, of
course. Yeah, make sense to me. I'm genuinely winning the Q and
A like back. Stand up, here's a question. James Darnell asks,
may I go to the bathroom? There's no way. Someone's name is James
Darnel. Dude, I swear I didn't make this song. Dude, did
you just docks me? Well, why are you asking for permission to go
to the bathroom in the Q and a sec. Yeah, just go to
the bathroom, bill, just go. Don't make me go bathroom. I
won't come back. Well, no, don't like go to the bathroom,
like go to the bathroom. Just go on the floor, yeah, like
in your pants. Yeah, and we'll wait. Dude, you can install
that up a day on your chair your chair. No, that's not how
that works. Use your PC. It's probably not even in there anymore.
The dudes probably take it out of the stores. I got the X racer
bade going on here, so do you? Yeah, D me really really
really let's say yes. Yeah. Well there's another question here from Bobby into
Pussy aka Maddie. What's the status of your computer's SSD James? We never
question? Yeah, we never really got an update there. Yeah. So
I mean, you know, they transferred all the shit off of it to
a new M to SSD. Yeah, and then I, you know,
I took my computer back. I'm not sucking. Yeah, I'm not letting
them as all that ship. So I took it back. I took the
M two, I plugged it in UM and then uh it worked. Did
you give them back their USB stick? Oh? Yeah yeah, I said,
there you go, man UM. I actually reverse installed a bunch of
shit on it. So like when they plugged it in, the like blew
their computer up. But so they shut down permanently. Yeah. Hopefully have
a store in Kabe and in real life. Yeah, okay, well you
got the SSD, you got all your files, right, that's yeah,
thankfully. No games surprisingly on the SSD. I'm not too sure while they
thought there was gonna be games on it, but that's weird. They wanted
to play something. I have one of those motherboards where like the SSD slots
are beside each other, not like separately. Some of them have the top
and the bottom too slow want to right beside each other. So I had
to as little baby screw and you know I'm gonna be around the bunch.
I gained a lot of weight. You know, I'm saying my hands are
bigger now. I have to try to install this m two fucking screw on
two SSDs at the same time, and the screw shares the middle piece of
both a s s ds. So like I'm sitting there with a screw a
screwdriver that's not magnetic because for some reason it lost it's like magneticism, Like
it's correct, like that grip, no grip in there, no more brad,
Hey, fellas, we know about that, right, Yeah, we
know about that for sure. Yeah. So I was trying to screw it
in the damn screw kep heh yeah, yep, fucking up and uh you
know I e actually got it in there, and that's uh, that's a
story. Man. I got all the ship back. I had to change
the letter drive of course when I got it back, because all my everything
was broken, all the links were broken, all the hyperlinks. That's awesome.
That's great, and yeah, no, I was excited. Um,
anything missing at all, I will say this much. I got it back.
I installed the SSD, I booted everything, I streamed my computer fucking
cycled like twenty minutes in the stream and I was like, dude, please
tell me the PSU they got for me wasn't fucked up. Also, but
no, it wasn't. I haven't had any problems since. I think it
might have been just a one off thing. Well, there you go.
That's good. Um, we have a question here from Jacob Goodnight's three foot
Long Don got embombed. Have you guys considered or tried to get on Fight
TV or Fight Plus for DPW shows. I feel like everyone should see VPWB
and Fight would bring you guys a bigger audience. Well, yes, we
fucking have No, you're right you would, it would. Uh. Yeah,
we we discussed it. We've we've talked to Fight and they were very
fucking nice ex So they were super fucking cool. Um, it just it
didn't. It didn't work for us. A brother, that's the best way
to put it out. Yeah, pretty much. Yeah, just explored all
of it. Actually, we explored literally like all of our options. Yeah,
streaming and deep. We reached out to everybody to try to do something
different. Um, and in the end, it just wasn't feasible for us.
It just didn't work how we would have hoped to. It would have
kind of hurt what we wanted to do. Um. I mean but again,
like everyone we talked to, you especially Fight, they were super cool.
Um, but it just it just didn't work out on the end.
So yeah, so yeah, no, I And then you're right, I
agree. I think it would open up a lot of eyes to the product
or whatever. But um, you know, we're gaining gaining steam on our
own platform, truly independent style wrestling. Literally everything is on our we're doing
it right yeah, um, And I'm proud of what we do and uh
yeah yeah, I just want to make sure we just it's a big it's
a big decision to make and it's huge, yeah, you know, and
we're not doing too bad right now. So um yeah, so just right
now, we don't think it's probably the move, but you know that could
change in the future, sure. And it's also it's also something where like
if we did it, it would have to be Okay, this is what
we're doing, Like there's no going back, which is also a gigantic fucking
move, you know, right, Yeah, I think that's probably one of
the bigger things because we were close to signing with one streaming platform. Yeah.
Um, but it was damn if this doesn't work out, we can
never go back to what we were doing before. And we were like damn
y yeah, And there was no guarantee. You know, there's no guarantees
with that stuff or out anywhere, you know what I mean. It's just
kind of what you bring to the table is what you're gonna get back.
And it just wasn't. It just didn't line up. Um, but never
say never, you know, yeah, right for sure. Um, here's
a question from Rush. I guess this is for both no rus like,
oh yeah, here, I guess this is for well, I guess this
is for all of us, but in theory, I guess just James and
I. Um, if you had to eat a whole Penis pizza to save
Tony, would you do it? Yeah? Whatever, I do that regularly.
I do it just for foam. You're killing it this week. It's
I think it's like, yeah, it's a lot of weight off my face
or no, yeah, yeah, I mean because you know, I got
a little bit of scruff still it's already girling back. So not eating a
penis pizza for you or Tony? I would just you know, I would.
Yeah, I don't know, Tony. I eat my own penis pizza
for you. You'd make one of my penis. I've been at your house
and you've never made one. Well, it would've never made one. Wouldn't
be great, it would be sad. But I didn't know this one.
It'ssage. No, not fucking god, damn it. Uh, Tony.
There's a couple, there's like a few people. I saw maybe three different
people asked this this week, and I guess it's something we've actually about before
on the show, but I guess some people are new. But here's the
one from Michael the Mike mizzenon why is Tony a pizza guy? Why is
your name Tony pizza guy? Everyone? I'm not. I'm not this guy,
never was a pizza guy. I don't even like pizza story story,
What about the whole penis pizza? A penis pizza is what I would like.
Okay, So there was one time when I put a penis on a
pizza and then they just call me not that story, sorry, the story
about you're a Tony Pizza guy, Like, how did that come to beat?
How are you Tony Pizza guy? I'm good? How are you?
Wow? And I didn't even realize right now, Tony, we are cooking.
That's that real. Why I used to make flash cartoons with the video
game, Donkey, Bag of the Day. We used to make the most
fucked up sprite cartoons and you know all the other stuff, you know,
the sprite flash cartoons. Maybe what's that dealings? He didn't take a long
time to come out game. So anyway, so we're, uh, what
was it skype? Maybe as a skype back then. I don't reger what
we were voice chatting on. But then he was like Donkey, and I
think the Xbox. We think he just came out or it was coming out
or it did come out or something. He told me to go buy one.
I went and bought one so I could hang out with the boys.
You know that Tony, you're on one to day. He was a big
Gears guy. He got me the Gears of War, so we were playing
Gears of War back Donkey. Yeah, he was a dude. So we
used to co op on the Gears. I think I'd bet all the games
with him if I could remember. Wow, that's you know, it's crazy
to come full circle with that, Tony. One of the guys naming Gears
of War is Marcus Wow guys, big guy, and he says yo ste
woe. He actually says yell starting a podcast called Deadlock Wow Circle Tony.
That was a map on Gears a warlock again. Anyway, he's a little
shitter and said I should make my name Tony Pizza guy. And he was
like, hey, you're a towny Dony pizza guy, you know, in
a Donkey voice. I can't do it. You're right, No, I
can't do it, but I know you're Tom I can. I can hear
it in my head right now. Donkey killed Legal Legends and also all Sonic
all j RPG fans also hate. But he teams the memory of Donkey Kong,
a lot of which I risked every December. Yeah. Yes, And
so that was it. But a funny story about Tubby Emo. He got
his name from a user generated Xbox three sixty name. Wait what teaming?
Tubby EMU was an Xbox three sixty name that auto general people don't even know
about that anymore, Tony. Yeah, I don't know. When you'd get
on in the gamertag would be made for you and you could just randomly regenerated.
And he that. So he got his from regenerating teaming teaming tubby EMU
was a it was a next thing. He kept it. Oh my god,
this is the realest Q and A of all time. Yeah, holy
shit. Uh here's another one, wondering if Johnny and James taws Tony Salin
opposite directions. That's not the question, that's the name. I remember.
In one of the episodes before the Deep to event Japan, Johnny and James
talked about a rent a mom in Japan and having the mom section at the
event. Did that happen? If not, why not? I don't remember.
I don't know what you're talking. I do remember, I do remember
that. No, no, no, I'm pretty sure you were there,
Tony. We uh we Yeah. I came back from Japan and I was
talking to you guys about some of the ship you can do in Japan.
I was like, dude, you can rent a mom, like you can
rent a mom to hang out with you all day and be your mom.
Fuck I do remember this. I was like, let's rent an army of
moms and then section Yeah, oh why not do that? Yeah? Why
didn't we do that? That sounds very easy to do, especially now that
we've been there. Yeah, you're right now, it's super easy. Right.
Oh wow, Randal mom, oh it's coming. Yeah. We were
actually just preparing for it is why we haven't done it. It's happening.
Actually, yeah, there you go. I think that was the last question
I had actually, so there you go. That was all right. When
I do great great questions this week, Thank you guys. Uh there was
like one hundreds of them and that was the best. That's my chest,
Tony. Yeah, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, let's go,
let's go. This is my ass just clapping your cheeks. Well, all
right, now it's time to get into Raw. July sixteenth, two thousand
and one. Invasion. Yeah, yeah, Invasions right around the corner.
The pay per view is six days away. But before we get into that,
let's take a look at The Observer and what was going on in the
world of wrestling around the time. From The Observer July ninth, two thousand
and one, on in w f News. The first impression of ww in
the most important angle in the history of the business in Tacoma, Washington was
downright scary, to the point of reevaluation of the current plans to be considered.
The live crowd totally rejected Booker t versus above Bagwell that they put on
the raw main event. One can blame Bagwell for putting on a bad performance
and T for also not rising to the occasion, but the crowd had already
decided to hate it before the bell rang to start the match. Loud chance
of boring this match sucks and Goldberg filled the Tacoma Dome as the crowd booed
every move by both wrestlers. I don't remember this happening. Also, that
did not happen. Yeah, I think they might out or something that probably
makes sense. Yeah, but I'm pretty sure the next week they were in
Georgia or something. They were they were in Atlanta, Yeah, yeah,
yes, they sabotized this whole thing from the game, Yeah for sure.
Yea and yeah, and we've talked about this before, but regularly had the
most shitty ass matches of all time. So, like, is not anything
new to the WWF, And let's not act like they uh, the fans
that were WAF fans wanted to see. We have to w f shit on
them every chance that you're right. It's not like the match was amazing,
it just was. It was fine. It's event. I wasn't exactly blowing
it by a way, like post neck surgery, sure, and like he
was a gimmick guy and like could go you know, I mean Booker could
go be seen on this episode. Yeah, um, And but you know
they did end up keeping Booker around because it's hard not to, dude,
Buffalo is a gimmick guy who said don't do your gimmick. Also, by
the oh yeah, I forgot your right, Tony. They did say,
stopped the camera, Yeah, don't do your gimmick. Yeah, okay,
that'll super heat by the way, which we will get into a can't wait.
But regarding that match, by the way, so there was a chance
of boring. This match sucks in Goldberg and then fights broke out in the
stands and a large percentage of the crowd were steaming streaming toward the exits while
the main event was going on. Chance then started off refund and end the
match with the only was it a pop coming out which would be a normally
a grown spot when Angel and Austin did a run in on the main event
in only five minutes. Did we watch believe? I don't believe that at
all. We watched it for watch this. Yeah. Did we also watch
the episode before this? Yes, the week before I think we watched the
SmackDown. We watched the Old Stone Cold one. Yeah, yeah, okay,
I was just making sure. I was like, I was watching this
and like, damn, did we watch this before? I did too.
I had to stop and look it up. Yeah, we did not watch
I looked it up before, but yeah we did not. Yeah, because
I remember talking about the buff stuff. Also, yes, yes, yes,
I like the idea of Meltzer saying that the matchup is so bad that
people started fighting. Uh. Meltzer's attempted best explanation on some of the recent
burials. Jerry Lynn was buried because McMahon just doesn't see anything in them,
and Ben Juan Jergo had the push stop because somehow, as funny as it
sounds, they got the blame for the bad ratings during the two weeks they
were pushed. I mean, I understand that Jerry Lindpark because he probably didn't
fit whatever WF is looking for. Sure a fantastic worker though. He was
awesome and he had some really cool moments. But the Jericho and Ben Wah
thing is egregious one because you got you signed them from WCW, like you
signed them for this. Yeah they've been here, Yeah right, Yeah,
Well fucking these guys show two thousand and one. Jericho is there in ninety
nine. Yeah, that's multiple gimmicks, by the way. Yeah, they've
all gone through like the same shit. The locker room dynamics have changed greatly
over the past week. There's a feeling that some of the WCW guys walk
around the locker room really cocky. The biggest heat was on Booker t,
Stacy Keebler, Buff bag Wall, Chuck Blombo, and Shadow Hair. So
everybody everybody on these really everybody everyone. The word is that all the younger
members have zero knowledge as the locker room protocol, etiquette, and how to
conduct themselves. About two dozen of the w CW guys were brought to Connecticut
all week to train and the larger WWF rings to get the rush off before
appearing live on TV. Buff showed up late every session and then arrived late
for the house show and spook Gaine Watchington. Yeah that's a real wrestler right
there. Time is a suggestion. It's weird that w ran like shit and
went out of business and then they come to do rive and don't understand how
they well, yeah, dude, they walk into the locker room and start
sucking undertakers cog big style. So those guys they're out of here. Yeah,
we weren't giving double handies to the APA. So what then were they
doing when they come in and taking ships and crash all his bag? What
do they have been doing? You know? He probably literally was they weren't
shaking her hand jobs. Yeah, come over here, boy, I swear
those guys probably just showed up whatever the fun they wanted on Nitro. Didn't
care what they want. Yeah, it was probably a fucking good gig.
And honestly, by the end of it, man, the boys were working
crazy matches the work rate guy and saying, towards the end of that fucking
shit, they were nuts. Boys were like fuck this shit, you know
what I mean? Like the guys have been there forever, you know,
all those guys are going out there going nuts, like Shane Helms is really
carrying this fucking Joe and his dropping duds on their head too, and it
was like, oh no, shut his plays down. Probably well speaking of
Shane Helms, by the way, the story was reported that Buff Bagwall and
Jane Helms had an incident. Uh. Buff was telling Helms that no matter
what he did, he'd never make it and wrestling because he was too small.
Helms came back with something about him obviously being on steroids. Buff Bagwall
then slapped him. Helms came back and hit Bagwall in the face with something
filled with ice and fucked his eye up and replied, stitches. He punched
his face on the hand. It's like a foodye doll. That's awesome.
Uh. In the MSG beating up Plumbo and her hair, a little extra
was put in to it by some of the guys as a lesson. You
better fucking kids taking that hand job. We're stopping you out again. This
is an unreal time in wrestling. They're beating up Palumbo and here for for
real because they don't like WS. They beat up Chronic for real two and
get you. They deserved it. Yeah, yeah, that's true. From
The Observer, July sixteen, two thousand one in WF News to show how
wild the ideas have become. There was serious talks of bringing in Eric Bischoff.
Could you could you believe this? Could? They thinking? How could
they possibly do that? Backstage at Rowing Atlanta, the talk was that Bischoff
would debut the next night at SmackDown, although those in the inner circle claim
that Bischoff deal had fallen through several hours earlier. The claim was that once
again the entire WWF versus ww issue was booked more for ego and to prove
the new group was second rate, even though they owned it before we were
building it. They only want a Bishof for two weeks, just long enough
to save the pay per view. They were a fail, they were afraid
was heading to fail. Bishof would shoot an angle, do a match with
Vince, which was thought to draw a big buy rate. Vince would go
over and Bischoff would never be heard from a gaping. So that's how I
would boasion out of the other owner. And you're not wow. By the
way, the answer to the dilemma to save the pay per view was ECW.
So that's right. They said, w C is fucked. This should
sucks. What are we gonna do. Okay, we're gonna have ECW a
part of this invasion, which I mean, I guess because they give give
the alliance or they weren't even alliance yet, but they gave him more credit
when they came in. Yeah, I mean it all their guys already.
Um. From a short term standpoint, it appears that the move to rehire
Jerry Lawler as a WIF announcer is next to dead because if how everything went
down over the past two weeks, pretty much Lawler was trying to force them
to hire the cat back and they said no, and he said, okay,
Well and I'm going to hul Coogan's new company. Than a new company
comes around, there's no premadonnas in that company. Does wut Great? That
will work out very great? It is. Yeah, is widely believe that
Lawler is likely to wind up as an announcer should the much talked about a
hul Coken Federation get off the grounds, since Jimy Hart would likely wind up
as hogan Ski assistant. Yeah, thankfully we get there. Nash did an
interview recently. He mentioned in WW how he specifically was told not to mention
Scott Hall on TV, So he did it every week. At one point
they told him if he did it again, they were going to fire him.
Then he gave he gave them a speech about the Constitution and freedom of
speech, which convinced them of them that I'm doing there's there's not one single
dude that can at this level anymore. It's not one. The Constitution guaranteed
that he do what he wanted on TV and keeper's job. If someone tried
to do that and DPW, I'd say, yeah, you got it,
you got us. I agreed the Constitution. Yeah, that's fine, that
sounds great. For the second weekend in a row, there was a story
about a fire spot going awry and an injury at the XPW show on seven
seven. Last week. Sorry, at the XPW show on seven seven.
Yeah, this was this year at the Grand Olmica Auditorium in Los Angeles before
eleven hundred fans during a deathmatch with Supreme and Chaos. After Supreme went through
a table filled with light bulbs, Veronica Cane, one of the porn stars
that uses valets for the promotion, put way too much charcoal lighter fluid on
the table, which was said to be the entire can and Supreme took a
bump face first through the table. Supreme ended up on fire. He began
shaking and rolling, which only made the fire worse, and then a guy
with a fire extinguisher panicked and ran up and sprayed the table that was on
fire and not Supremacy. I just saw this, and then someone to a
water bottle at them, you're right. Eventually he was sprayed after about ten
seconds, which was a long time under those conditions. Some of the fans
that were very respectful as he was taken out, saying things in Supreme like
I hope you die, Oh yeah, history will and the last thing here
from The Observer July twenty third, two thousand and one. Backstage story This
week, Jin Dragon, a hair at catering, set at a table where
Triple h was and kept to themselves that worst they ever made. Look at
Jin Dragon said, I know you're gonna fuck up Randy Gordon's career. I
can smell it on They never introduced themselves, and after a while Triple Edge
got up and made a minor production over introducing himself to the um. The
basic gist of it is that some of the WW guys are cockier than they
should be. But others are coming across not so well, simply don't know
better. She blage made you want to kill both of these guys fucking careers,
did Jacket a hair? Probably just try to mind their own business,
like just sit down and full of fucking potatoes in Russet's probably, And then
he I'm gonna talk to you while you're even brokem On, now I'm gonna
do here where you go. That was the observers for this time, And
let's get into Monday Night Raw for July sixteenth, two thousand and one.
All right, now it's time to get into wwfter all. July sixteenth,
two thousand and one started with the Cold open. Here Za speak, man,
what's he out? Stone Cold? He stone Cold, the one who's
gonna fucking kick my whole family's out. I want my children, run my
house over with your car's all gone well. Vince also at the very end,
which I always thought was funny, he says, come on, everybody,
give me a hell. Yeah, yeah, Stone Cold just shakes his
head. He says, give me a stunner. And then Austin stopped at
the top, give me a stunner. Damn it. Yeah that was I
love that line. It was. It was a good moment, and then
the music behind it really helped it too. Yeah, it's Austin's head down
Chicken said, no, I need you washedon, give me a stunner.
He stops and people start popping and he just keeps walking. Go back.
Well, Stone Cold is at the Friendly Tap Bar, a local bar in
the area. Drinking is here. It's about fifteen minutes from here right now.
Did you know that a fifteen match? I have been to this bar,
a friendly tap dude. Everybody does talk like that go here all the
time. So yeah, well it's a popular bar that Tim White owns.
Yeah, I want to say later on in the show, I was like,
they didn't. I don't know if they meant to, Okay, yeah,
I didn't hear don't. Well, I don't know if they like I
don't know if they're forced too. But Tim White's in the angle, so
I guess they're like, oh, well that's you know, that'd be hilarious
that the kfe the owner was Tim White, you're drinking my beer here.
It looks like it's he picks one up, bud. Yes, my Budweiser
Beer the Steve Wiser here for it's his top shelf. Right, looks like
okay, so we get the RAS War intro to start the night. Of
course, I think that's a lost art and it's full of I think that's
a lost art in today's wrestling. Is I feel like I never see the
intro for any show ever anymore? Yeah? No, or if I do,
it's not like I don't like when I wanted to look forward to seeing
the too, Yes, because I liked the song. Yeah, me too.
Yeah, it was fired me up and then I knew the power was
coming. And I know companies still do, but I'm like, I don't
know. It's not as exciting. M Well, tonight we get Taz versus
William Regal with Tajeri and in the tas Jerseys. It's actually even worse when
we get to it later on, if you can believe that. But in
the main event, no, I couldn't believe it when I saw this,
don't you don't have to James, It's okay, we don't have to do
this Undertaker and Kane and I was like, please do not say the rock
in Triple H. I was like, please, don't say this, but
it was injured. Yeah he was or not maybe not brother Come up,
dude. Yeah, I'm Taker and Kane versus DDP and Rhyana the y interest
the whole time. It's also DDP with a fetish dude. That's even crazier.
There's so much later on that like needs to be talked about, but
we'll get there obviously. Yeah, this is genuinely like an insane time.
You got just incredible coming in here, Like you know what I mean,
this is fucked up, you know, like just incredible on this show.
Hugh Morris is here and so's Java. While it's time for the Spike Dudley
town Hall. That's how we're gonna kick off to the Spike Dudley town Hall.
So yeah, the Invasion truly is a very very crazy time. Yeah.
So Spike is not gang affiliated here. I don't think he's like picked
a side or anything. He's just kind of neutral. He's doing is he's
doing Spike Dudley stuff. Of course, he's not on the side of the
Dudley Boys because he costs them the tag titles by hitting Bubba with a crutch.
Because Spike is in a boot, a big boot. Actually he's actually
walking normal, but he's walking with a boot in the crutch. He's like
walking regular. Shoot injured though, that's so weird. Maybe it's like getting
on the ass end of him being actually injured, like he's like, you're
right, almost ready to come back. Yeah. Maybe, or he's just
used to working hard because he worked each Yeah, that's actually touched that Mite.
But yeah, Spike comes out here in the Vince Shane Invasion shirt.
He's got one rose on the back of it, like Kurt Angeles geared TNA.
Well, we know that Spike k is leg broke by his brothers Bubba
and Devon, and uh, you know, he's a here's a hatch him,
young man. That was crazy. Yeah, I guess, I guess
you're right. Yeah, that's real. So Spike calls out Molly Holly to
come to the ring. Yeah, he's gotta get something off his chest here,
and Molly comes out, and Spike says, well, Molly gets in
the ring. Molly fucking gorgeous by the way, Yeah she is. Yeah,
of course she's one of the Holly cousins because her last name is Holly.
Yes, indeed, And Spike says, I know him a Dudley,
not a Partridge. Air horns sound. I was like, oh fuck,
that's also a lost art air horns at wrestling shows. Air Horne was going
off gnarly in the beginning. I feel like they had to find the guy
who kept using stop using it, like after this segment. But this segment
he said, not am I know him a Dudley, not a Partridge?
But I think I love you? And Molly says Spike, I think I
love you too well, Spike hands are a rose, and Molly says,
I got something I would like to give you two and well, I can't
give it here, give it to you here tonight. And the crowds are
going, oh fuck, he's gonna fuck, He's gonna fuck. But it's
and she whispered something to him, and Spikes is, I think you we
gotta get the fuck out of here, dude. But Michael Cole here,
he he's a boy. That's That's what I say. Was someone's about It's
like the old almost Sadly, Spike and Molly can't leave just yet because the
ECW theme talk is Paul Hayman is doing the most egregious strut to the ring
pos she lights right, No, I don't think it was just it was
just no lyrics. There's lyrics later they actually, you know what, they
actually have the Paul Hayman uh extreme later on, Oh yeah, yeah,
you're right straight? Yeah yeah. Well Hayman struts down crazy to the ring.
He's in his hat and his fucking suit and all, and he gets
the ring. He says, get this man a chair. He has a
broken leg, so he gives him a chair, and Spike gives Molly the
chair to sit in, which is very nice of you, very gentleman.
He's a handsome young man, an't he. Oh yeah, you know what?
Molly should give him that fucking looking Yeah, well I can't give him
head. And I know somebody who will. I would suck right Michael,
Oh boy burn. This is what's going on in my head constantly. And
eng Heyman says, yeah, you don't mind if I bring a cam corner.
Okay, seriously, but if you really want me to, I will.
I will. I'm a real freaks. Later on, I'll tell you
you real, Yes, Hansome, you do if you want, hey Ams,
I won't let you know that you came to me five years ago in
a business that didn't have room for a five foot five, one hundred and
fifty pound guy. And I listened to Bubba and Divon and I gave you
a job because they love you and I love you, and we all want
you to come back home to ECW. And says, listen what I want
you to do. Go to the Penhouse suite, take care of your business.
Of Molly kids are goodbuying in the morning, and I'll see you brighton
early at the easy of You offices bankruptcy and April and bought the offices.
Oh, of course, all the offices. His story Joey styles Mom's basement
or something. Yeah, yeah, it was well. Spike says he's made
a decision and he's staying with Molly and names, Oh, well, it's
okay, because Molly, there's a place in ECW for you two. We
need a gorgeous blond like Molly. And you know, I'll take a little
bit of lightbo suction and a bit of breast enhancement. And Spike's not having
this. You know, I'm talking about my girlfriend like that. And Hayman
says, what is a one legged man gonna do to the boss of ECW.
Well, the boss he's gonna be Stephanie, so I'm not too sure.
But Spike has an answer for that, and he says, what am
I gonna do? I'm gonna kick your ass. Well, he doesn't get
time to kick his ass, because here comes those fucking damn Dudley's Uh.
Bubba says, the last time we saw you, or should I say,
didn't see you, you cracked the crunch across my back and causes of tactles.
Yeah right, Tony, the new world Odor, He says, Listen,
we're sick of going through all the paint and agony only for everyone to
ask how Spike and Molly are doing. And Devon says, if people want
to ask about Spike and Molly, we'll give him something to really talk about.
So they fucking start whooping Spike start asking them. Well, yeah,
right now, right now, I'll tell you that much. Just got to
a package fire up here, boys. Oh wow, Well, Dudley's kicking
Spike's ass or whatever they were doing. Hayman his boxing Molly out under corner
crazy style right now. Yeah, man, he's firing on all cylinders.
Rate the Dudley's andre Spike in the ropes. I'm not explaining what that means.
You know what it means. Well, Molly low blows Hayman and then
it hits Bubba in the back of a chair. She then goes to head
Devon with it, but it catches it, and Bubba sets up a table
and then they fucking load Molly up second rope style sit out power of bomb
from Bubba to Molly off the second through a table while Spike watches. This
is fucking crazy looking, man, dude, Jim Ross says, this is
like watching the execution your best like like they did to my friend Jerry Lawler
live on television. This is like a comment like j rs like, this
is like relatable execution of your best friend. Well, I can relate to
that. You know all the charm Nor Hammond is a kool aid cherfing cult
leader. Okay, okay, so well, the MTS come out and they
stretch your Molly out of there, and now all all these fucking guys are
hurt. Man, this is fucked up. How can they do this to
Spike's best friend because Bubbara Deli is a brainwashed ec WI. Well, and
he's not very hands Oh he's not that Spike though. If your doctors don't
want to help him out because you need to be rescued. Give me the
word talking about thick you can hear. Are you going to work right now?
Jim? All right? Well they said something commentary said morning, I
have not got late in months? What are you do? Fire his shoes
on, eat the table, socks off. So I watched the kid Omega
drinking that coffee that's made right under the desk's coffee saying tony one, I
think it was Jibras like the e c W I called ec wis h W
Yeah, cold cold, drink cold. He is holy. So backstage segment
here Kurt Angle is backstage waiting for Vince. Essentially, Kurt wants the spot
that Stone quotes Steve Aouston had before he decided he even want to do this
shit. Yeah, he's trying to hype himself up. He's in, you
know, he's yeah, here we go. H Mr Brockman, I humbly
accept your offers as team leader of w F. Nah. Fuck, I'm
going for the gold again for leadership. Can't really figure out his line line.
Well, Vince walks in and he's like, what are you what are
you doing in my office? Where Stone calls. Kurt says, listen,
he's not here. He's not only he's not here, he's had some local
bar drinking. I was like, why he's in, Why he's in Rhode
Island. Kurtz says, yeah, are in Rhode Island? Yes, all
right, we don't don't worry about that. I'm here to lead team to
the invasion. It was, well, thanks, what dad? What's the
name of that bar? And kurtzays, I don't know. It's the Friendly
Lab. He couldn't really fuck it up too much more than that lab,
so it was definitely like his head was like firing off one hundred things a
second. He said, lap, well, the friendly type, fast the
name of it? Thank you very much. I gotta go find Stone cold.
Gret says, okay, yeah, dude, come on, I'm trying
to help wf here. You got fucking Spike out here getting fucked by JR.
What the hell else is gonna happen on this show? Well, speaking
of shitty as matches, we have Chuck Palumbo versus Farruke up next. Yeah,
Fruke is with Bradshaw. Chuck Balumbo's with Shawn O'Hare. Uh, Fruke
is just beating the funck at a Palumbo. For most of this he's hitting
all of his ship. Course, dude, Fruke folds Palumbo with a backsup
lex like it was I did not have to do this to him. I'm
not sure what happened, dear, but he crunched him on it. It
was fucking awesome looking though. Yeah. So yeah, I mean Fruke basically
beats him up the whole match. Yeah, Palumbo does Scott Hall spinning punching
and undertakers ships in his bag and punches him in the pla and for Ruka
Bradshaw. Of course, they do their damn things, So I will tell
you this much. Shawn O'Hare looked good ringside. He he did look good.
He was in the you know that tight shirt. He looking big looking
buff nelace. Yeah, he's looking ready to get fucking jobbed out for him.
It looks like he's ready to get lied to about his new gimmick.
Hell yeah, well, uh, Fruk kills Plumber with a spinebuster. Oh
Harrod gets bumped off the apron and then Plumbo hits Fruke with a superkick and
gets to win. They actually put them over here shockingly. Wow, that
doesn't yeah right, yeah, So we got backstage again. Kurt Angles talking
to the Brooklyn Brawler. Bomber. Kurt says, what do I gotta do
to prove to mister Rickman and I should be the leader of this team?
What I gotta do? Bomber, Brooklyn Brass Brawler Kurt, He's whatever.
Anyway, Kurt doesn't think I'm or Vince doesn't think I'm tough enough just because
I'm not the stone cold of old I could be extreme. I I drank
milk a day after expired. It's not normal. We don't all just do
that. It's not all you do. Disgusting, disgusting. Oh fuck,
okay, my bad. Well, Raven walks down the stairs. He's just
here. Hey, how's it going? Look at just bring it cut scene
walks walks into the shot. I can't I can't believe you have the audacity
to claim that anything you've ever done has been remotely extreme. Uh he's seeing
you in that cowboy hat and showing the guitar reminds me why I love the
f in the first place. Kurt says, well, believe me, you're
not missed. That came directly from James Ravens says a bunch of bullshit about
the darkness falling on the paths of despair, and Kurt says, what the
fuck are you talking about? And Ramon says, well, I'm challenging to
do a match Kurt. Kurt says, I'll face you in any match.
Raymond says, okay, how about ECW rules. That's a damn it.
You have this, it's your match, Ravens rules, Why why rules?
Man? Fuck Well, Kurt says, okay, no problem, and then
Raven leaves and Kurt says ECW doesn't rule and the rules, how about that?
I am so Now you have Mike Awesome versus Edge should be a banger
on paper man, all sounds like it should be tony, but no,
it's not. Sadly, uh yeah, so land Storm is out here with
Mike Awesome. They got a hell of a team going here. Of course,
this lasts for a long time, and they're quite quite good for a
long time. So yeah, it's a great run. Yeah. Uh,
we don't talk about that. Canada. Yeah, that's gonna be sucks.
Why are you wasting time with Worm? Know we were worried about that,
buddy. Uh So land storm and I don't even know if they mentioned that
anything about Canada here storm, yeah, just here. And he's also very
serious until he starts dancing. Uh, if he can be serious for a
minute, I think edging Christian suck balls. Who he says that they're not
taking this business serious and uh, you know, five second poses, cheesy
sunglass is an off beach nanigans is not what his business is all about.
Well, Edgine, Christian got something to I can say about that, if
you can believe it. They love five second poses, chese sunglasses and all
the beach nanigans. That's all they want here. Yeah, well, ja
shenanigans. He can't even spell shenanigans. And Michael Cole says he's a nerd.
Jesus, oh wow. Christian comes out and says, holy Jurassic Park.
I can't believe we've stumbled upon a living, breathing Rikasaurus Rex. And
the crowd loves this. They love the fucking Rikasaurus Rex edges which one,
hey, Lance, if you and your partner Mike totally not awesome, New
World oder better than that. Well, if you want to find an invasion,
then you got it. Oh, by the way, if I could
be serious for a minute. Oh beach Nanigans rule and the crowd bops for
that. The dude everything edgin Christian said, no one understood what it was,
but they all loved it. That was they were super over man.
I used to love that shit as a kid. Yeah, big source guy
Corse, big time, one of my favorite WCW wrestlers back. But yeah,
Edge got the big w wf is ans for that. Brother, Oh
I saw that. Well, yeah, you're right, fair enough. So
Edge comes out huge hockey tarphy. He's King of the Ring two doesn't one
winner by the way, Yes, yes, yes, and he carries that
around. Of course that leads into Christian Edges. Christian takes the hockey trophy
and starts saying that he won the King of the Ring and all that,
which is actually a pretty good little angle for them. I like that angle,
and it's great for the turn too, Like it's you know, it's
kind of obvious what goes, but the obvious thing isn't always a bad thing.
It's great that that happened that way. I will say that having Mike
Awesome in this match bumping feed for Edge is an interesting way to take this
one. But I guess WWF like in the undercard had one style and if
you came to work here, you were working that one style. Yeah,
yeah, for sure. Um what do you think of the ref in the
white w Gonna be Polo with the red w W logo? Oh yeah,
very interesting? I think it was too You not like this ref? Have
you said that? Have you said what you thought about that logo? I'm
sure you have. I just don't remember. Oh yeah, I mean,
you know, originally I was like, ah, this shit, are you
kidding me? You know what I mean? Type shit? I actually don't.
I don't mind it, not just because they're the uh where I'm looking
for. I almost I don't know if posterity is the right I'm trying to
use here, but um, I think for history's sake, Um, I'm
okay with it, Like yeah, just because I enough time has passed and
it's so yeah, it's such a non issue, doesn't matter, And like
if I saw it in a game or something, I'd probably use it just
for the laugh or like I kind of like it. Yeah I did at
first, but I think I like it now. Yeah, I mean,
it's just not you know, it's iconic for doesn't mean Yeah, it doesn't
really mean shit. I just it was used. Yeah, I think that's
the best way to put it. I definitely like acknowledge that it is there.
And like I said, if I was, if I was doing something
in the game, I'd love to put it on somebody put it on ODIs
or that. It'd be like it is funny. Is that not the They
have the other w c W loodos in the game, Like what did you
use for your universe? The normal one? The block one, Yeah,
the original block, like the ninety six block on the bird shit one isn't
in the game, is it. They like act like it doesn't exist.
Never do that, yeah, never Yeah, yeah, we've never done theirs.
They've never done the logo. They don't do anything. Yeah, that
is weird, Like especially when they had, like Jarrett signed a w B
and shit, they could have done a fun pack where it's like bird shit
logo w CW. You know, yeah, Jarrett Booker, Steiner, you
know that's just all their era shit, Like Booker had a fun look at
that time. Tame. Yeah, yeah, you're right, and yes things
looks iconic of course and big popa pump, but really, you had it
all and like I don't think we've ever had like a in like any WB
U No. No, yeah, Like I don't think it's ever been in
any w B game, has it? No? I know, not that
somebody else does. I swear we've talked about this before. But yeah,
if anyone knows, let us know, because yeah, and I think I
think a Jarrett too, like that Jarrett era chosen one stuff. It's like
it's never been really like other I think he was in the WCW game or
something like that. Um, that's right, he was in like backstage Sault
with that g Yeah, but that's it. No other game really shows that
that was such a fun era for Jared. He would legit all you legit
did with him, people with guitars, like like, yeah, it is
cool and like there's a lot of fun stuff by the era. I feel
like we missed out, like we like I guess he's going out of business,
makes sense, but like I hate that we missed out on a whole
era of like shit, like it just doesn't exist. A lot of Jared's
run isn't covered in any games, right, Like he's not a part of
the WB thirteen game. I think they had a lot of resentment for t
and A. Oh yeah, I guess you're right. Yeah he was.
I guess he still wasn't there? Yeah yeah thirteen was he still there?
Yeah? I guess he would have been on. Wasn't he? I think
he was wasn't his anymore? But he was still like wut or whatever?
You or? Was it? Yeah? Yeah, you're right. I think
that was probably Jared, Kurt U, Karen China. Oh yeah, on
the fuck you list? Remember that China they did in TNA. No,
oh you don't remember that? Yeah, they brought when she was sorry Yeah
yeah, okay, fuck that was that late, wasn't it? Holy shit?
It worked? Um? Yeah she worked it. Sacrifice two thousand and
eleven. Tag YEP, Tag Team China and Kurt and she wears the Kurt
gear. Oh my god? What the fuck? Yeah? Isn't it crazy?
Dude? I completely forgot about that. Wow, what a fucked up
bear. I'm glad we got the Jared stuff in the TNA game, like,
you know, that was pretty cool too. Yeah. But yeah,
man, there's a whole bunch of shit from that era, Like we never
got anything with like three count or we never really got no Norman Smiley.
Yeah, none of that. They're like BAU but like, what the fuck
ever there's like and I like the games because they kind of captured the time
period they came out, and like there's no there's nothing for that time period.
Yeah no, no, yeah, no, I mean like and any
representation from the w B games is always you know, Monday Night War heavy,
like when they were on top, it was like seven yeah, yeah,
not like ends. I don't even know if it makes it ninety nine,
ninety eight. Maybe he's the last of it, Like yeah, I
don't even know if it makes it that fucking far, because and now they
never even get into Russo Air, like into Russo Are no Goldberg Turn,
no new Blood, no fucking any of that. Yeah, I'm begging for
it at this point. I'm literally just begging for it, like somebody please,
just yeah, it's somebody please or like anything, like I just want
to see it in game, you know. I love to like and like
CNBS is cool, but it's not the same. No, Yeah, I
need to see it. Yeah, but we can't do that. Well.
Edge and fucking Mike Awesome. I'm working here and JR Is on commentary and
he says, Oh, you look back, and you look at the critics.
The media. Critics, of course threatened to WF, The federal government
threatened to WF, but the w F has never been challenged as we currently
are. Is that right, Oh bunny, let me tell you the next
twenty years what happens? Yeah, I know, Awesome, it's I think
the only thing Awesome gets in this match is his sling shot splash from the
apron. That's like all he gets. Yeah, I mean he goes for
all shit. Edge like doesn't want to do it, he knows it,
encounters it very easily. Yeah, Like he's a big Awesome guy, so
he knows all that shit. And then he's also Edge does the flying shoulder
tackle to Mike Awesome in this that's right, what are you doing? That
is crazy? Edge? It's the ejaculation or whatever on Awesome? Uh the
buzz killer. No, that was the that's the end end move. The
ejaculation is the fucking uh fuck. It's like, yeah, yeah, the
facebuster. Well, the ejaculation is also the buzz killer, which is well,
the buzz killer is also the juh yeah, so divorce, Well why
would he keep it as the buzz killer. By the way, why would
he keep it as the buzz killer when he could change it to make all
of his moves on the exact same You have no idea what the buzz killer
lasts. It can't be long. Didn't xpoc use the buzz killer. It
was the submission the buzz It was the buzz kill, I think, not
the buzz killer. Sorry, whose was the buzz kill? X I thought
it was buzz killer the buzz I thought so too. I guess it was
a submission. You're right, Tonny, buzz kill pricelens right it was in
It seems like buzz kill buzz No, I said XPO. Neither of these
are. No, it was in six. I believe Tony. This other
guy, well, you gotta go on. I can't trust with you can't
trust. We had a local bard fifteen minutes from here. I don't know
who is well Awesome goes for the Awesome bomb Edge, counters and hits the
buzz killer. Michael Cole calls it. Landstone puts all some fun on the
rope. Christian chases him around the ring. Uh. They fucking get bumped
in the ring. Then Christian brings in some chairs. They're just gonna get
qu I guess they load up Awesome for the concerto, but the ref takes
the chair from Christian, giving Storm enough time to super kick Edge behind the
ref's back, and Mike Awesome wins. So we're fucking loading up the wins
for w c W and e c W here before they go to hell.
They're totally gonna win at the pay per view, right yeah, okay,
guess what happens at the pay per view? I think they do? Do
I actually do think they win at the paper view, don't they? The
Robbert series is the one where they lose lose. Oh is that right?
Or is it the opposite? No? No, yeah, the Alliance win
it at Invasion, Okay, cool? Yeah, the double stage one though,
right or it meets in the middle. Yes, it is worth Jeff
Hardy almost falls off. Give me that is awesome. So I got backstage.
Stephanie is with Booker T who looks like a million bucks. By the
way, dude, he's fucking looking great here. He looks like a guy
that's gonna fucking piss everybody off in the back for sure. A shittymagine a
buff Bagwell or yeah, you're gonna kill the whole d I think, actually,
but he's got the WCW heavyweight title and the United States heavyweight title.
Yes, Stephanie says, he looks, dresses and talks like a champion,
even has a gold tooth. Ding well, Chris Jericho is here, and
Jerichos is, of course feuding with definitely man one of the problem stiff from
his angles. I guess you could say, hello, Jed sucked my cock?
How many cocks you suck today? Stephanie? You got that cocks in
you bitch? What he said? Yeah? In a row? He says
hello Stephanie, and she says hello Jericho. Jericho says, I want to
congratulate you on acquiring ECW. I guess I know what those letters stand for.
Now. Every customer welcome, because you're a slot of course w W
W. Well, Stephanie says, every customer, but you, oh shit,
you ain't everyone but you fuck you. Jericho says, I know you
consider yourself the queen of hardcore, but unfortunately movies don't count. Back to
hellup, man, don't you see grown folks talking. I got the mind
to take your ass. You're douf ass to the ring and whoop you're ass
uh and Jeriko says, listen, you're gonna challenge Why j won't you put
the WW title online? And Stephanie says mmm mm hmmm, and Booker says,
all right, you got it. Bookers says, you sure you want
to do it for the gold, which is when I knew what was gonna
happen, because I was like, oh fuck, okay, and step says,
just like an invasion, you're gonna kick Chriss, Jerko and the DOFs
as But no, not really. The hardcore Snack in the Night presented by
Corn Nuts. No, no, god damn Corn on a bike, the
hardcore corn snag brother Corn gone wrong and they even admit that it sungs well.
Taz slaps to Jerry at commentary with a jumpsuit on and then puts the
TAS mission on him. Hey, just Jerry's doing commentary. Tas goes up
and kicks, what, Taz, This isn't like you? It is It
is so much like him. Yeah, it's more like him than you even
realize, bitch. So we got backstage. William Rigo, William Regal I
guess also is talking to Jerry in front of the dude from dark souls.
Jerry is speaking Japanese and of course William Rego can understand him. Of course,
Rego says to Jerry, the w's not doing very well tonight. That's
an evergreen statement. We're having our backside panted to us. I know you'll
teach that miserable, filthy specimen t has a lesson an invasion, but tonight
I'm going to teach him a lesson in respect. And then to Jerry talks
and my subtitle says speaks in for it. Couldn't figure it out. Sojerry's
going fucking crazy and he's uh, He's like, I don't know. Was
he spraying like mouth like, yeah, right too, I don't know what's
going on here. He sprays in his mouth. He starts talking crazy fast.
Yeah, he says. Oh. Rigal says, oh, you want
to commentate tonight? Okay, how you know? He says, all you
want to come to my match against Tess will since you did a such a
great job, Yeah you can. And Jerry to get ready for commentary,
starts combing his hair and he's very heavy. That looks good, man,
he looks good. I like his little you know, he's a little hand
handsome young man. I'll tell you that much. Yeah, I didn't come.
I'm gonna there's other dudes, Jerry, but you know it's busy.
Backstay segment, Stephanie and Shane are talking to Paulieu and they talk about the
five guys they're gonna be in the Invasion match, the inaugural brawl. Is
that what they called it? Yes, those five have been the five you
would have picked. I would pick just incredible Sean Stay as Jerry Lynn saw.
Oh yeah, we're cooking Chuble. Sorry dude. There was a there
was an observer thing where was talking about like if Triple Trip just hurt like
Tony said, yeah, no, he's heard big Style. Yeah, definitely,
he's you know, mending his money for ye that. It's definitely probably
would have had him on Team wcw mm hmm, which would have been interesting.
I guess. Yeah, definitely. I think he would have fit in
perfectly here with DDP, Booker, T, Dudleys, and Rhino. Yeah,
it'll probably take Booker T spot. He said, yeah, you know
what, this team does look pretty good except for you Booker team. You
gotta get out, get the out of your man. Those titles while he
said it too. Yeah, yeah, you man, But yeah, that's
the that's the team. Booker t DP, the Dudley's and Rhino will represent
UH and Paul him and says Gore Gore, And in the background you can
hear a fan yelle, put the hell up. That's awesome. We got
a pre tape and Vince Wigman has found the friendly tap bar where Stone Cold
is. We'll only fifteen minutes away. You know, that's a brisk walk
for the chairman of the board. No way he walked. He walked.
Hell yeah, he walked just like Vince, all the way, all the
way down the street. Vince walk all the way down, Yeah, all
the way down. I can see him cussing up his storm. The fucking
Stone called better comback. He's talking himself, breath, arms, his arms,
just swinging up the day commentary. He's still here. He still got
the headset off for production. He's still producing. It's like they had they
had the commentary down and was like, oh man, I'll tell you Somethingboudy
hands a man. It was not here earlier. It's like, God damn
it, I got the fucking piss. I gotta go Stone Cool. I
gotta use the commentary bit, I gotta firefucking like, well, what the
friendly tap stone Cold is drinking a bear? What? Uh? And Debora's
there too, and he Vince walks and he says, hey, Deborra,
you don't She says good. He says, well, how's he doing?
And she says, I haven't seen him like this in a very long time.
Well, Vince walks up, is Steve, how are you doing?
Good to see you man? Austin's just drinking And Vince says, if I
upset you on SmackDown, maybe I shouldn't have done that. But I can't
press upon you how important it is to me because I need Stone called the
old Stone called Steve Austin to lead the WWF into the invasion on Sunday.
But I and I need you tonight too. By the way, he never
says why he needs him tonight. He just says, I need you tonight.
I didn't mean to put you on the spot. But there's nothing wrong
with the current stone Cold. This stone Cold's fine, but I need that
old Stone called back for invasion. We've never been threatened like this before.
And all the while Vince is going through this whole diatribe stone Cold is very
slowly turning further and further away, scratching the back of his head, slowly
turning away from him. Vince is Steve, I need your help, and
Austin has his full full back turned now the Vince still drinking. Look when
your dad's trying to give you life as guys and I want to play Halo.
Well, then says I'm gonna go back to the arena, and I
hope I see you there later to night. This is live. I bet
people were like outside this place they had to again unless they oh, yeah,
I guess it was nighttime, unless they filmed it earlier with the idea
that that was going to happen, because inside it was definitely pre taped.
But I mean there was probably people that went, They're like, I know
where this is, of course, you know where it is? Actually was
fifteen minutes away or not. Yeah. At one point they say, uh,
they say that the bar, he said, the bar is closed.
I close the bar just for you. He closed it for Austin. Yeah,
they do say that later. Yeah, Well, thankfully we have a
star studded, fucking actually packed Matt to talk about Cold. I'm next Taz
versus William Regal. Yeah, I actually so. I was like, okay,
this surely has to be good. These two guys do sup plexes and
they're good and this should be good. Right, How could this not be
good? Well, well, it's because because it's it's fucking raws. Let's
go. So Tas has this. By the way, tas presentation is crazy,
this crazy entrance, all the smoke, he's got a countdown to come
out, like the fans are oranged out everything to not make him look cool,
but then they make sure he isn't cool. Yeah, he comes out
here with the shirt and the jump suit, jumpsuit plus shirt, so fucking
to Jerry on commentary, going nuts her. By the way, he is
losing his fucking mind. He's flipping out in Japanese, I presume. Cole
says, you know, we asked on SmackDown. Yeah, any English at
all to Jerry and the Jerry says yes, punch, punch, punch,
And Jerry said, well, you know that's that's good, but that's kind
of just kind of my line. Jerry looking nice tonight, just so you
know, Oh, Jerry gonna you'll be taking on Tash on Sunday, right,
And to Jerry doesn't answer, and jersia, well, I guess we'll
get to that on John Day. Anyway, you look very nice and he
looks very nice, so uh to Jerry gets in the ring, they do
nothing because they got a pay per view bets going up, buddy, Did
Jerry gets in the ring, Taz tells him to come on to Jerry,
then slowly takes off his polo. Oh yeah, and it turns out to
Jerry. I don't know if you guys know this is in ECW. Dude,
how could this fucking happen? I can't believe that anyone wouldn't I wouldn't
have expected this. This is unbelievable. Even Tas is like, holy shit,
you worn'ty we worked there, so Didjerry and Tas. They look at
Regal in the corner, and then did Jerry tells ta let's get them,
so Tas forward and then did Jerry kicks Taz in the back of the head
immediately It just happens like right away, yeah, when they missed the shot,
Like he goes to kick him back in the head, and it cuts
immediately to Regal's face, like they don't even show the kid they missed the
shot and then they never fix it in post ever for twenty years. And
this is fine, that's fine. I mean, it's such Jerry whatever,
man, so did Gerry kicks him in the back of the head, locks
in the tarantula in the ropes and as he's locked in. Yeah, this
is an over move I remember as a kid. I love this too,
And Regal punches him in the head continuously. Dude, the crowd was going
crazy. He has a tarrangela Regals lighting him up. But that is weird,
jams how over? That move is never won one match in the history
of rest. You can't. You can't imagine that. Yeah, I guess
in a nod Q match you could. But even then, I don't know
if he did. Maybe he did. Someone can prove me wrong, I'm
sure, but in my mind he's never a wrong one with that. Yeah,
if I have an easy w versus head the Jerry rips off the shirt
by the way, that gets on the second rope and spits the mist on
the shirt. Oh that was cool. I did like that. I wonder
if he did that. I'm guessing they asked him too, probably, but
it was a lot cooler in my head. If he did himself. I
think he just did it. Yeah, and they just were like, oh
good, idea, I missed it. I was walking back from the bar.
So we go backstage. D d oh, my god, dude,
so, dude, dude, this is unbelievable. So we go backstage.
DDP is with Rhino. Of course, during the main event of Night against
Taker and Kane, and ddpchel's Rhino that tonight will be a night to remember.
Yeah, something really big is going to go down when we get in
the ring with Taker and Kane. Okay, Well, DDP has an unedited
VHS director's cut of Undertaker's wife, Sarah. What does he call this?
He calls it by the way, Wait wait wait wait wait. Oh,
yes, he has a name for his unedited director's cut VHS of Undertaker's wife.
He calls it the Kangopata Bings Best of Sarah. Anyways, if you
guys want to check out this VHS, the code is DDP zero zero six.
If you guys don't link that one up, you can't find this.
I probim you. D says a strike to DDP. By the way,
is this whole angle? Uh? The Angle's not his fault. It wasn't
his angle. He went with it. I don't be a choice with the
Undertaker. There was no choice to be me. No, I can't.
I can't put you fucking get a VHS in my life, dude. DDP
tells Rhino, go get a few of the boys. I'm gonna give him
a special screening of this tape style. We're gonna rent a room for one
hour and watch this tape. Rhino says, sweet. Then Ronald leaves and
then comes back, and then leaves again, and Jared says dutch shick.
This is not mentioned for the entire rest of the show. Jr. Didn't
say that. He said, that's sick. I hate that is. Oh
wow, he said he has a tape of his wife. Wow, dude,
I thought they were going to have like a segment where the boys are
sitting there and GDP pops it in and take her, runs in and boots
the screen and kills everybody. Yeah, Tommy Dreamer just stole it, though,
So what happens? I as soon that's what happens. I don't really
have it in my mind. They just watched it and all had fun and
then the bulls that's not real. Tony again you're just you're on it.
They I'm telling you. So after this, we have an invasion pay per
view commercial. We actually see there's a few times later at night. I
believes promo cool magic. I like it, like, yeah, was it
dumb music? No, it's the real, it's the official is it just
gotta take it to the extreme. That is was a cool moment. Well,
we got to a pre tape. Tim White brings a beer to Steve
Auston at the bar. This one's on the house and were charge and stone
cold old time is tough times. Her brother, Well, I close the
whole bar down for you. It's I guess that's fine, my favorite.
He brings him a beer. Who the fuck is giving him the beers in
the first place? Yeah, I guess you're right. There's another bartender there.
Tim White says, I know where you're going through, and I close
the whole place for you today. I'm your friend, and I know you'll
make the right decision. And he pats Austin on the back and Austin's head
snaps, stares at the hand and talk to me. I'll fucking I'll make
you fucking do seven weeks of angles where you kill yourself. Tim White says,
Okay, that's fine. That's a good idea. I think. Oh
yeah, so he actually does or I guess did own this place, the
Friendly Town. You know it was this real bar? Yeah, you know
that was real. That's that's cool. I mean was it in Providence?
Um? Do say? It was in Cumberland? You know where that is?
Oh? Is I think that is that Rhode Island too? Or is
that Massachusetts? Maryland? That's not right? Then the Friendly Tap on Minden
Road in Cumberland. Okay, fifteen minutes away from the venue. I'm not
sure that's right, but all right, I'll take your word for it.
So I guess they probably flew out there with Steve and then recorded all that
ship and then you know what I mean, sure, yeah yeah, and
he walked well, of course he had to walk this, this is walking.
This seems like they kind of freaked o wood. Yeah, still production
headset. It's not even the day of the show. Production. Well,
he's got a JR. But I haven't fucking all to you. But are
you gonna hear this? Dude? I just had like a daja boom moment.
But we were talking about like when Goldberg got arrested and went to the
jail the street and we googled it and we were like, is that real
or was it not? I just had like the flashback of us doing that.
It's super close to war Chester, that's nuts. Yeah, close to
Warchester. Yeah, this is for everyone, not these I know it's not
Worcester. I just can't stop this fucking guy's stopping him. Just let him
do it. Say that it's Wooster No chester Shire sauce on your whatever.
Yeah, my Hamburgers. That's like a sauce you can put on anything.
Really. Oh yeah, man, you put the word Chester sauce, man
Or Shire, Worcester Shire sauce. That's that. That's that. I mean,
that's that sauce. I mean for real though, like word Chesterton Fieldville,
Iowa, which is where I'm from. Long story short, it's actually
sixteen minutes away. And Vince's chi off. Somebody's from Maryland. Gildberg fucking
shout out. So we now go to Booker t versus Chris Jericho for the
title WCW name play audio is so loudly mixed it jumps. They didn't really
they just brought it over from the other company and didn't like test it before.
No, I just walk it back. He didn't have time to test.
I'm about taking back. You're not gonna walk back. No, there's
no way, not me. It is so weird seeing the WCW Championship fly
by graphic with the that is weird logo. Yeah, that is fucking weird.
I don't like it, dude, sick fucking match we got here though.
Yeah, the boys are gonna get ran in on. I love this.
The agents were like, all right, you guys are the one good
match night, so go have a good one. Yeah, you're right.
It was. It was fun and I don't know a lot I was gonna
say. I don't know why this wasn't the main event, but I do
know why it wasn't. Everybody does, sure. Nick Patrick WCW ref in
the white shirt for this one. Um. Jericho is a good baby face
here. He is. He's over too, He's over and uh I don't
like Yeah, man, it comes back. He says, what the hell's
going on here? Let's change this up a little bit here, won't we
Yeah, Jericho is super good baby faces shines awesome, does a combo into
a triangle drop kick to the outside. Booker of course fights back hundred tenth
Streets Slam, big move they actually used here in the WWF. This is
way different than his WCW. Feel like the one hundred ten street Slam wasn't
like a huge movie like this was his like big cutoff here. Yeah,
yeah, you're right always, so they're working like a really fun movie too.
It is. It looks crazy letting the Face like get up big in
the shine like this and like having the heel cut him off and then the
baby face find his way back like you have to have. It's weird because
this is such like an easy concept, but I feel like a lot of
guys don't understand this, Like maybe it's like the selling of it or like
I don't know, maybe they don't want to let somebody get up on them
that much. They feel like it makes them look bad. But like sure,
yeah, having Jericho go up huge in the shine, uh, only
to let Booker cut him off and then like he brings it back and then
they're at the double down. It was just a really well done TV match,
which you don't especially in this era, like the TV matches and far
between. Yeah, I feel like WCW had these way more often, which
is probably you know, I'm sure you know. Both these guys worked at
WCW, so like, yeah, super long match either. No, they
don't get a ton of time, but they work a well told match and
I fucking love to finish. So um Nick Patrick looking awesome. Yeah,
Nick Patrick goes for the three count off a drop kick, but my shoulder.
He does the two count that Booker kicks out of, but he fucking
like sells his arm. He's like, oh fuck, I'm fucked up.
I was like, oh shit. Then, uh, Jericho fucking hits a
shit bulldog lion or lion salt excuse me. Booker avoids that scissor kick at
Jerio Dodges that puts them on the walls. So fucking Bookers in the walls.
A hot sequence, by the way, it was awesome. Yeah,
like they do all this shit and it's so fluent. It's something like it
felt like a nowadays false like it genuinely did. Like it was like super
high, especially for the time, Like super hot falses like that weren't like
adamant on TV very often, so it was cool to see them kind of
float through. It felt like something, uh like I feel like Jay White
saw this once in said I'm gonna do this every match for the rest of
my Yeah, for sure. It was great though. Yeah, Jericho's got
him in the fucking walls. And then Booker is just about to tap out,
but Nick Patrick's hamstring is fucking hurt and he starts selling Ah my leg
and Booker taps out with Nick Patrick distracted, and then all of a sudden,
Earl Hebner sprints down the Rimp gets into the ring not to check the
fucking submission, but to punch Nickpatrick in the back land. He fucking are
not lads. Nick Patrick turns around and then sees Booker tap out. He
calls for the bell, but Shane catches his fucking hand just before. It
was such great timing. He grabs his hand just as Earl's about to fucking
call for the bell, punches Earl in the fucking head. Earl takes a
crazy bump, Jericho bumps Shane off the apron, Booker low blows, Jericho
rolls him up. Nick Patrick is alive and well one, two, three,
Booker wins. I said, oh my god, this count yeah,
yeah, good, yeah, everything everything came together like so well here,
like there was like nine moving parts and like, yeah, any of this
ship could have gone wrong a minute. Yeah, yeah, genuinely, it
was just the finish. Yeah, it was like a sixty second fucking finish
and there was nine people in it, and they all had things they had
to get right, and they all got all right. And I guess that's
why they pay him with the big books. And Debby said if he stole
one again, yeah, you're right, he's up crazy. They set up
for that pay per view match with Nick Patrick versus A there my favorite thing
think about, keep your crappy Debbi Sebby shirts on your own side, keep
her crappy w shirts. I like that is a funny guy. So we
go backstage after that. Perry Saturn is with Moppy and Terry Rerunnolds. Yes,
yes he is, and uh, Terry is trying to tell Perry Saturn
that he should not go out there tonight. Terry Saturn, I say,
said, well, Terry says, she has a big match Nutrician. She
doesn't think you should be out there today. Sadly for her, Perry Saturday
is concussed to the sixth degree. Yeah, he is. His gift like
gimmick or not gimmick is that he is unbelievably concussed. It may not have
been work. Well. Hayman walks in. He says, oh, are
we a happy three son? You mind if I talked to Perry for a
minute. Uh And she leaves and it says nights boots. Huh anyway,
boots, he's boots. I had to listen back to it, just a
big sure, yeah, yeah. I thought it was like, wow,
nice boots. All right, see you later. Well you got a point
there, John. Let me tell you what Flam says. You know,
this whole beast to be thing. We're gonna get all the guys from East
to Be back together. It's not right without you. What's a solar system
without a saturn? What's ECW without its saturn? I was like, oh,
that's a good fucking line. He said. How could the wing good
conscious conscience put you back in the ring with all the concussions you've suffered very
easily. This is just like I did. He's gaslighting of grace. Concussions
you got Why don't you come bay to ECW. We don't care well,
he said, they have health and welfare. They care about the health and
Wearfare Welfare ever their support performance. So you know, more concussion UCW the
safe shit I made. It's fucking done. Bro. He is not response
to this. That's what his response was. I'll take that one back to
Stephanie and I'll see what they say. He says, oh fucking snassages okay,
and Haymond leaves and Parryston says, you're welcome, big pop huge yea
love welcome. Yeah. I thought this was a punishment. It turned out
to be as most over gimmick ever that everyone remembers. Yeah, well,
I think we should fire him because he got this over. I think that
I think that probably works out and he can get about ECW, right,
Yeah, yeah, I think so and get concussions. So we have Raven
versus curt Angle up next the ECW rules match. Yeah, well WWF rules
not ECW. You know what I mean, it's gotta beat the goddamn Raven
rules. Why is it fucking notaw rules? Dumb? For fucking seconds,
his gimmick, Raven has a shopping cart with Frankenstein on the front of it.
I thought that was already cool. By the way, this match was
fun. It was I feel like if they got two more minutes and Raven
got a little more. Would have been super hot. Yeah, I think
all of Raven's hardcore matches WF were awesome. I think there's so much cool
because I thought it was cool because Raven and Kurt Angle legitimate would just throw
in shots at each other. Yeah it was a fight. Yeah, I
thought that was cool. Like Kurt Angle was mean as fucking this dude.
Kurt starts by spearing Raven and beating him in the head with his gold medals.
He has him wrapped around his fist and said, oh shit, Yeah,
this is like a brawl. This is cool. They're hitting each other.
Oh, by the way, so during this deb asking me if Kurt
was in the real ECW, and I'm sure you guys know the story,
but maybe some people don't know about Kurt being in the actual ECW, which
is a fun fucking story. So Kurt's like hot off of the Olympics.
This is fucking ninety seven maybe whenever. I don't know what he woned,
what ninety six, so probably ninety six ninety seven. Kurt easy to be
Arena. He's being brought in and they have they do an in ring segment
with fucking Kurt and Tazz and like Taz talk shit about him and with the
idea that Kurt is gonna fucking come back and work. He's gonna work a
fucking match with Taz and like it's fucking cool, and they do that.
Kurt's watching the show and it is the same night that fucking Raven crucifies Sandman
on a cross. So Kurt sees this. Kurt is like, you know,
religious, and he says, uh, if I am anywhere on this
show with that, I will fucking sue you and I will never be back
here again. So that was Kurt Egle is very close to being an Eastern
to be original, But sadly Raven had a crucified the Sandman. Dude was
bad. He kind of worked out pretty great for Kurnegle. Everything, everything
kind of worked out for everybody. Yeah, you're right, who had to
come back in the ring And I apologized to everybody on the same show.
God damn he did. Sorry, Yeah, what was he It's like,
you're respecting my privacy as Scott Levy, and I'll respect your privacy of religion.
Sorry, sorry, it was it was like, uh because I think
it was like I don't know who it was someone maybe it was maybe it
was Shane Douglas. I was like, oh, because Raven's Jewish. He's
like, oh, why didn't you do that on a fucking Starr David and
ravens like, well he would have rolled away fucking crazy. Yeah that was
south Park. We're sorry. Yeah, that's exactly what Raven's apology was.
But, like James said, this match was sucking fun. They're beating the
shit out of each other with trash cans and ship trash can lids. Raven
does the fucking Raven spot that dropped a hold into the top of the trash
can, which was fucking cool. And then also they are Raven's shirt gets
ripped off here by the way, which for you action figure people, I'm
pretty sure this is why there's a three pack of Shane Stone Cold and Raven
and Raven is shirtless, and I think it's because of this match. I
don't know why that's the three peg though, I guess Invasion the Hell.
Yeah, Shane Austin and Raven I had it. I was like, what,
Kurt beats Raven over the back with a fucking trash can, just brutal,
fucking shots. Uh. He hits the Olympic Slam, puts him in
the ankle lock, and gets the fucking win. But that is not enough,
because Kurt then starts inventing submissions to put on Raven after this match to
fuck him up some more to show how fucking extreme he is. Yeah,
I thought this was like this ankle lot choke he put in was so sick.
I think it's one of his submissions in shut your mouth. That's awesome,
man. Yeah. Yeah, it's like it's not like a it's not
a struggle submission, but it's like one of those you do and like it
fucking gives you a little momentum. Uh you put in like a key lock
or like amor or some shit. Yeah, yeah, that was a shoot
the second, and then he starts doing the stone He gets a chair and
does the stone cold spot with Raven beating with the fucking chair and his hi.
That was also shoot dude. And then the fucking three biggest stars in
restling Gastyk'm about to make the safe for Raven. The Invasion Gods shop to
handle this fucking problem. This is the new triple Threat. It's of course
Chris Canyon, who immediately gets in with a chair and then meet who was
Seawan Stasya in the WCW and just incredible who both of those guys never make
it to the ring. They're afraid of kred Angle in his chair three on
one. That is so crazy, just incredible, and fucking Sean stays yet
didn't you know what tonight? Whoops? Yeah, whoops and U of course
Kenny gets chaired and then the rest of them run away and that's uh,
there you go. Kred Angle is ready for his spot in the inaugural brawl.
Yes, not the leader though, sorry we need stoned well. Talking
to stone Gole Stone Goles at the bar playing pool with Deborah. Yeah,
yeah, what a shit to time. This is not to time to action
your pull game, not time for billiards in front of a pitch. Yeah,
you fucking piece of shit, it's not shot time for eight ball old
stone cold I knew it. Doesn't want to turn his back on a fight.
He's shocked a fight, and by god, why is he here?
This is time for nine ball. We should get the nine ball game on
that just a lot more fun than a ball. Yeah, I got a
couple of them. When that was time for hardy Boys versus Dudley Boys,
and here comes a great match, right, dude. This is the match
where he said, all right, we have This is the match where I
said we have definitely packed six pounds of shit into a five pound of ass.
Like this is taken a little too deep at this point. You know
you weren't excited by the guy in the crowd that had the Leada please give
me a son sign? This is crazy. Yeah, Like Leada did all
this cool, like innovative shit for the division, and then like later on
it's like, you guys want to jack off to her VHS. Yeah,
yeah, you're right though, Man, it's crazy. It is crazy looking
back on it. Man, this is my plus ten match the night.
Sorry boys, Oh wow, Really it wasn't that long. Yeah. I
knew they were going to do shit, and I was like, I'm so
like you know what I mean, Like it's I was saving money for later
because I knew I was doing it. That man, event was begging for
it. Yeah, well, Jay, I said, I worked. I
worked all my life to get you to WWF, and I'm proud of you
here every Monday night. But by god, we've never been threatened like this,
not by any organizations, not by any right wing groups, not by
the federal government, not by anybody. And I know exactly where Alon is.
I sat next to him in that very bar on the stool, and
I know what the friendly tap is, and I know it's fifteen minutes from
here. I know what it is. And if I thought it'd be any
good, I'd go there myself. But I can't play eight ball pool.
I just can't do it. And if it's man can't get him off that
bar stool, nobody can anyway. The Hardys and the Dudleys are right right.
Matt hits a twist of fade on Devon. Jeff It's swanton. Matt
lay is as flat as possible so he Bubba can pull him out of the
ring, because of course he can. Matt is on the apron now he
does a sunset flip to Divon, but RVD in George's and an ECW shirt,
runs down, grabs Devon's arms to pull him forward, shift his weight
and pin Matt Hardy and Devon gets the wind and then RVD goes to the
top rope and hits a diving kick to an unsuspecting Matt. Rd Star Rocks
blast if you see this guy coming to you like da, this guy is
the coolest guy ever got in? Yes, absolutely is it? I think
they Rbady and Dreamer debut like the week before this, so like already comes
out and Cole says, who that is that guy? Yeah? Wow,
yeah, and uh it has on it. Yeah, this is extreme.
So backstage, the acolytes are watching them and they're wondering who the fuck Rob
band Damn is. Of course, like everybody else, these guys from that
coming from that second right ass company, ain't got the gut among them.
What's happening? You got there among us? Ain't got a good among them?
What they gotta be bigger? Is that? What's going on? Fruits?
Hey, you see just what happened? And Vince walks in because they're
in Vince's fucking office, and it says, yeah, and what are we
gonna do about it? Bridge so well, Steve coming, and it says,
I don't think he's gonna make it. Fruits says, well, I'll
be damn and Vince says, you should say that for the rest of your
career. Well, it's just gonna be us. So you gotta he says,
you gotta rally the boys and get them all together. I said,
rally the boys. Oh shit, they're busy. Drink them off the Sarah,
They go, we got time for this party. You over here,
man, we don't got time for that shit. So we got backstage.
We got a lot of backstage stuff here. It's so funny how this is
paced out. Maybe not the way to do it, but it's interesting enough.
We got backstage. All the ECW and have usy W dudes are with
Stephanie and Shane and Paul and of course Stacy Keebler back there. And that's
truly it was all about. In the end, um, Stephanie says her
and Shane have sold their WWF stock, very stupid. I would have invested
all their money and their stocks. And they believe in all of you.
And she's pointing out Tommy Dreamer humors Tava Guerrero. Ya Tommy Dreamers did in
front center, don't you haven't made a smart decision here, not contracted yet
to take off the UF. Okay, all right, so uh you know.
Of course Shane gives him a speech and you have Polly in the room.
Shane's given the speech here he goes after tomorrow there is no tomorrow,
There is no tomorrow. Pauli's into the chair in the middle the room.
Pauli gives one of his famous speeches. Of course too, yeah, he
puts over RVD. You know you know how much Jeff Hardy fears role band.
Damn, Jeff Hardy thinks he's hardcore. He knows nothing about hardcore like
RVD. And what about you test? This is fucking crazy. What about
what did Jey did to you tonight when he spit on that shirt. He
might as spit in your face. He might as well have kicked your door
down and spit in the face of your wife and your son. That was
insane. But he's right, he's right. He should say it, because
he's right. He says, we all witness the inaugural brawl, and we
take up the five best that tote WF has the offer, and she says,
are you with us? Yeah? Are you with us? Yeah?
Life yeah? Jerk off fright h hsh. So he go stays after that
Vince's and comes into a room with the accolytes and the Undertaker and all the
other boys, all the w WF boys. James, this is fun.
I didn't realize this until halfway th that is that me or you if I
this time? Dude, you sent me the picture earlier, but I didn't
realize it until like fucking the end of the promo. Vince walks in with
Taker the APA and Kane. Kane walks in with them, but he's a
seat in the back of the room. Sick, I guess because he's not
gonna talk. But like I figured he'd be up there with the boys because
he's in the match, right, Yeah, he is in the match,
I think, right, yeah, I think I'm pretty sure. Yeah,
So I was like, okay, so, like I'm watching the promo and
Kane is just like sitting in the back like chill is spread. Yeah,
he's look the biggest back there with Bob Holly talking. Did you know who's
sitting in the front row? Though? Just yeah, I'm like, what
the fuck this hold is? Tracking? Well, Fruk says, I'm sure
you saw what happened. They're they're over, they're jerking off the Sarah.
I mean no, no, no, no, I was taking the back
room. Where's that take? I'm jerking off? I'm coming Sarah, Oh
boy, oh wow, Kane is coming. Mask I got in my hand
I'm jerking Creamy all there staring at him. Yeah, that's that's just incredible.
In the background, Yeah, she soups it Kade, that depends over
all the people are staring at Kde shit anyway with my mom says easy.
Oh my god, I have a headache. Dude, Branshaw says, the
second rate sons of bitches want to ride piggyback off of us because they can't
make it on their own, because because I hate them, because I should
die. It's time to get knee deep in somebody's ass. I agree.
The top five wrestler, yeah, he said. The back of the room
just listening as acolytes, legendary losers. They just gotta get beat by Chuck.
These guys fucking suck. He's nudget Bob Holly. You got the acolytes
talking to Scotti, Tuhai A goddamn yeah, they got all the boys.
Oh shit, I'm jumping ship. That's got I'd be another comment. Guys
crazy. Yeah, So Vince Vince says, look as we need Steve Boston.
All right, dude, we need Steve. We've never been threatened like
this, dude, not the government, not the right wing. And I
hope we would have someone else here to night, to lead the way.
He's stone cold and takers tell with that tell that they're drug No, no
jumping around. Time to find out who the phony tough is and who's the
crazy brave. Hate that line because they put it in the video package today.
I've seen like a million times. Hell yeah, take herm spitting there,
bro, I don't know. And the crazy brain, he said,
also made a name for himself everybody he doesn't have a heart to fight for
the company that made him. I say hell with him, But the rest
of you, there's no shame in going out and fight and get your ass
kicked. And there's no honor and not fight. There's no honor and not
find at all. So who was the fight? And it was to fuck
my wife? Yeah, did you think come to the room. Yeah,
Freddy Bass wheels in. Well, Freddy Glassie gets fucking wheeled in. There
is no honor and no fucking my wife. Susan in the wheelchair, Freddy
blasting its wheeled in and he says, oh, I've been to the wrong
locker room. I was looking for the tape. I'm looking for diddyps yours
here is six that would be over there where he stands up in his wheelchair.
Let's go watch his tape. Where is the breast of Sarah. It's
like just tading go out. The whole chair won't go away. Oh yeah,
sorry, stands up. I love that. I wanted to see Sarah
taker his wife the lasting I do. He said, there's time comes to
time when a man has to fight for one he believes in. He stands
above his wheelchairs. Yeah, now's the time, get up, stand up
and fight, fight, fight back? Can they start chatting? Fight?
And that's the end of the state. A reminder, fucking hard Truth was
in the invasion in this room. Yeah, swear god ar Truth was not
in the room initially, and then like Freddy Blast, he came in and
then all of a sudden, artruths in the room. He wheeled him in
watching the tape and then he heard Freddy get him go. You see this
tape trying to help Freddie out. Yeah. So Austin is at the Freddy
tap. He throws the white ball at the table and then breaks the pool
stigm hold on, hold on stokeld is watching this Freddie Blast and segment.
Okay, wait, watching the Freds. I guess. I guess that would
make because he was getting pissed he lost gets himself in pool. No,
he never, never, he took all his money there he was, he
was looking up. So I thought it was in the video package on like
the pay per view. They make it like they edit it to make it
like you hear, like a sense you hear like a TV like version of
the audio from like Austin watching and on the Invasion promo you heard in the
background, you know, the white down and breaks. I like James's theory
more then he sucks and pulling the side. He's gonna go beat up some
ww guys, No TV, no nothing, dude, I just was it
he has to me this weekend and a W gave beat Chris over the head.
Anyways, boys, who was to buy Leada's home video and jack off?
Yeah? Austin it breaks, Austin breaks a pool que and leaves and
de says, Steve, where are you going? So? Yeah, Leader's
own video. You guys getting this ship You're going to w New York.
What is it called Leada's Special Home Video lead a Sexy Tape number one?
What is it? Uh? Well, oh yeah, let's look it up
now, it's just the fu it's Tony. I've seen it. I have
a three versions of this. Yeah, it just feels right. Is it
is that the one? No? No, no, this is Leada's special
home video. I think it's from the Diva's and Hedonism thing or whatever.
Yeah, it just feels right. Home Jr. Promises the hot one.
Oh yes, dude, So tris Stratus versus Terry is the match here?
Which after the leader thing? Oh yeah, okay a thing? Yeah?
Yeah yeah sure is there a leader thing? Oh yeah, the leader thing
is after this yeah. Oh no, it's douring sorry yeah, advertising yeah
yeah, um yeah, so it's Trici and Terry. Uh. This is
to build up to the bra and Panties match between Trici and Leta against Stacy
and Tory at Invasion Pies match first first ever. Yeah, this has never
happened before. Now. By the way, Terry Reynolds theme song got Tony
Hawk Special Tricks sound, and I don't know if you guys are there or
not. Does it Yeah it does. I was so surprised by that.
What oh my god, what the fuck do Yeah, it's like the beginning.
Yea, that is fucking insane. Holy shit, Yeah I heard that.
I went back like three times, like, dude, like, there's
no way this is actually happening. It's called electron, by the way,
look it up. Yeah, that's what the Terry also comes out in the
cheek code gear. This should be illegal. You can't boobs boots. I'm
sorry, I was just she comes out in the nude gear, which is
fucking just. This isn't even gear. I don't think she's just always she's
always been too sexy, man like. She she's very underrated. I think
no one really talks about her. Huh. She used to come to the
ring smoking penises. Man, that was base crazy. Yeah, she's hot.
Trish wins with the bulldog. She has a giant swing at one point,
Dude, she does fucking Trish giant swings. Terry and Jerrish giant swing
change of Donna Leo Jonathan, I'll tell you later, uh, Terry.
Trish whips Terry in the corner. Terry counters and does a hair whip.
Then Terry starts tea bagging Trish while JR Is talking about Freddy Blasi. Trish
it's a running bulldog and wins, and then Trish decides it is now time
to take off Terry's top and everyone's gonna see your nice boobs coolly, but
the fucking Stacy and Dorry come out to jump Trish. Stacy no shoes by
the way, Oh yeah you noticed that? Yeah you know what, actually,
deaf noticed it. I didn't even notice was the one noticed? Yeah
yeah you know, but yeah, well I drinked off average yeah yeah,
yeah, yeah. This is the realist episode ever. Tori's kicking Trish Tory
is like beating up Trish and continuously looking at the ramp waiting for Leda's run
in. I guess she's not used to this kind of angle. Yeah,
Leda does come out and bumps Story out of the ring and then hit Stacy
with the twist of face. Who Stacy though, Man, she had no
shoes on. That's crazy. She was tag match of course. Boys,
that's gonna be all yeah, that's true. Well, we haven't watched anything
from that show that doesn't one me was probably that was probably my most hype
match on the whole show, guarantee. Yeah, they had match for me.
I'd tell like that, dude, that's an eleven match. Oh sorry,
that's a ten match. Card counting counting heat or whatever or no,
not counting heat eleven probably went like three minutes. Yeah, let's see.
The longest match was the main, which was twenty nine. Yeah. I
feel like Rbdy and Hardy was pretty Hardy and Hardy go twelve. That's sweet.
I think we watched that match for Patreon, right, I've seen it
a million times, but I don't know if we've ever seen it. Dude.
How haven't we watched Chris Kenyon, Hugh Morris and Sean Stasy versus Albert
Big Show and Billy Gunn. Dude, there's no way someone wrote that down
and like they did that. It's like crazy. They went four twenty bad,
it's all good. What was the Braun Panties tag? Braun Panties tag?
Was the semi main went five minutes? When they got longer than the
Albert match they got Let's see what else did they go longer than? They
went longer than Earl Having or Nick Patrick time guarantee? That's true. Make
Foley referee to both the Earl having her Nick Patrick match and the Braun Panties
match. Oh double duty, trishan lead up, by the way, Sorry
that makes sense. I mean they were pushing Trish crazy. They always did.
Sure, um, but I mean Stacy probably should have went up a
lot. I mean, let's be real, Stacy nest off her day of
reckoning shit, she should have been up all the time. Actually, or
finish based off different because you're right, fair enough. But now it's time
for Jr. To pour his heart out for old stone Cold on commentary.
This is unbelievable here, like he's on fucking fire here. He was waiting
for this all fucking night. Yeah, he really was. Kane's mask is
very red here? Is this a different mask? Or what's going on here?
Did you either of you notice that I didn't blown up, brother?
Yeah, just fucking a long night of like almost pink his mask is.
I was like, well, really it's a weird look. Yeah, I
don't know, just trying something new. I guess we'll take her and Kane
bump DDP and Rhino immediately to the floor. H plus ten plus ten plus
ten momentum. Everybody understands that they're a real. Commentary line for the opening
of this match was DDP is that sicko who wants to show the boys the
video the Undertaker's wife? Yeah? He did, especially because you didn't show
me a By the way, Rhino looks great, genuinely, like you know
if he looks good too. I think it's very It's interesting to see like
these guys like this, you know what I mean, like Rhino in the
main event ddp uh being a fucking sex pest. It's like, damn,
man, what's going on? If you gave me, like, if you
gave me guys like Rhino, RVD cool, Cyrus, the Virus Boys.
No, but Rhino legit could have been like a top guy. I think
I'd say that every single time I watched Ryano for a retro, I really
do. And even in TNA. Uh, he actually looked better than TNA
somehow. He was fucking vegan TNA. Yeah, could have been could have
easily been the top guy. Yeah, they wanted him to how I feel
like it'll be the only place I got it right. I mean, they
gave Ryno the fucking NWA title, but it was for like a coffee run
like it's nothing. Yeah, you're right, Yeah, I mean yeah,
he his run was cool. Um he I mean he did a lot of
the same ship all the time in ECW. I feel like, but I
don't feel like I was ever getting tired of it. I guess like there
wasn't when I was tired of it just yet. Um, And they pushed
the fuck out on it. But he was like the only reason he was
pushed biggest because he was the only Gullah. Yeah, you're right. He
was cool as fuck too. He had a cool move set and he was
believable. I loved him as a kid. I was like, dude,
this is it me too, every every spear, every spear. After I
saw the Gore for the first time, I was like, I always was
like, the Gore is the ship there is. If you don't gore somebody,
you're not spear him. You're right, I completely fucking agreed. Signing
Signing Rhino made Edge look like shit. Later on yeah, a match together,
Yeah, it just Edge never looked like it, never like And of
course, you know we've talked about the Rock Cell of the Gore made it,
That made it, and they did nothing with it. I know.
That's so crazy, isn't it, Because like the Rock is like a huge
name and he fucking really sold for that, and they say, yeah,
whatever, good job. Rock. Rhino beat Kano on SmackDown. Nick Patrick
didn't a fast count though. That's got to build the earl having no Sure,
Yeah, you gotta get to that match. You got to Cane and
Taker collab theme, you know, of course, Big Bob. I mean
DDP was trying to keep his job here. He was like trying. It
was like he was he was selling super hard. I mean, Taker was
punched him in a corner and ship he was legs all the way up Jarrett
style and the quarter. You know they were saying, I think there was
a Meltzer thing that said, like DDP, there was like a something against
him because he was selling too funny on house shows. But I think it
was just him really trying to sell big for them. I think so too.
I think I don't think DDP was ever a barn Burner wrestler or anything,
but like, I think the guy understood wrestling, so like, yeah,
I don't think he was selling funny on purpose for how I can imagine
that happening or he could talk to DP and he could say, yeah,
I was selling funny on how. I mean, he was one of the
most over guys in the at one point the number one company in the world.
Yeah, you're right, for a long time. Yeah, so it's
like, I mean, you could you could fight that, like it was
a bishoff decision, but like, I don't know, man, he was
I mean he was over. He was he was over regardless of he says.
He says, you can't make the fans put up the diamond cutter sign,
and that's right, right, yeah, unless they all thought it looked
like a pussy and he thought that was sweet. It did look sweet.
Rubble came out though that I was upside down as well. Yeah, that
was a little different. But Dudley's and Booker hit the ring. Of course,
there's nothing in this fucking match. There's nothing in this fucking match at
all. Day. Everyone does exactly the bunch that you think they would do.
Booker and the Dudley's come out, as James said, attack Cane and
Taker. I don't think there's ever a bell. They just were like what,
I don't think so either, I think I wrote down I was like,
was there a bell? I'm trying to think now, I don't think
there was. Don't think I wrote I guess no, DQ because they're I
don't hear a bell? Yeah, so yeah, um, well, uh
fucking they jump Taker and Kane. Here comes Jericho, the APA and the
Hardies to make the save. I think Kurt's out here too. I missed
him when he was doing the rundown. So they're fucking making the save.
Then here comes the rest of Team w ECW, like Dreamer and Chavo and
Chuck Balambo, all all the stars are here for this one. Yeah.
Man, we get twenty thirty people in the ring man ECWWCW attacking Team w
WFA. Now I did every time twenty thirty people fucking braw beat down joints.
The stone Girl comes out. It's always awesome. It is what I
mean, it is cool. The one where he comes down the hats like
very cool, you know what I mean? It throws the hat. Yeah,
it's just it's awesome. Um yeah. Stone Cold pulls up in a
truck in the back, cuts the back they're they're getting attacked in the parking
lot. I think it was actually the Hollies getting beat up by like Humoris
and Billy Kidman or something, and the Stone Cold pulls up in his truck
and starts beating their ass with a broken bull queue. H oh, she
beating hell W and w CW. And it's cool. It's so cool because
it keeps like. I guess the people in the crowd saw the tron because
they pop huge, so they know Austin's coming, but he's still not there
yet. Yeah, so the big brawl in the ring, they cut to
the tron again. Meat and Shane Helms are beating up edging Christian. Then
Austin comes into building to find them fighting, beats their ass as well,
throws them across tables and ship. Then we go back to the ring,
are still fucking the w BF up. Everyone is like, oh fuck,
oh, fuck you you are so fucked. Earl Hamner right before Austin comes
out, gets in the ring, runs through the ring, and imediately runs
out, which I'm guessing was him yelling oh that's going. The fucking glass
shatters, disturbed songs playing. Here comes stone Cold everyone. Dude, if
you could bottle this fucking emotion you like, this would be I would buy
four million of these fucking things. This is like the coolest fucking thing ever.
Well, at least the WWF bottle didn't use it every week forever.
Yeah, you're right, this is all I was looking forward to every show
I tuned into. Jer said there he is there, stone Colde. It's
just the old stone Colde. And then Austin's like fucking charging down the ramp.
Oh, he's talking, he's walk heared his fucking mind. Austin gets
to the ring. He's beating the ship out of everybody. Bodies are fucking
flying. That's the Rattlesnake. Rattlesnake is back stone Cold. It is striking
anything that bod God moves. And then Michael Cole, Oh my god,
I wish he got hit with a fucking anvil. At this point, he
fucking says he is kicking but austing his kicking butt. Nauck beat his ass.
Yeah, Austin is thrown out a crazy amount of stunners. Fucking everyone's
eating a stunner kills all the debating. Easy to be guys, they're all
getting out of here. Canean Taker, Stereo, Chokeslam, Chavo and Billy
Kidman. For some reason, I don't know what that happened. Austin's a
certain music is playing. Everyone's fired the fuck up, and JR. Is
losing his fucking mind. Jared says Austin, it's gonna lead us in new
innovasion and by God, I like, our chance is better now the old
stone Cold is back. By God, it's gonna be the face. Just
watched entertainment. What he's like losing his voice? What changed forever on Sunday
and we got the old Rouse shake back at least for tonight. I thought
that was a cool fuck line, at least for the Like, God,
this is why Jr. Was getting paid a lot of money hopefully. Yeah,
those are the all timer lines, dude, he yeah, Like,
how the fuck do you not? Like? How did not this that Austin
and Jay are how it had to have sold like two hundred thousand buys right
there? You're right right, yeah, that shit hyped me up and I
already know this shop and you know what I mean. Yeah, somehow and
for some dumb reason, that was not the end of the show. No,
if they did to black and then that was it. And this is
crazy. This is one of the craziest endings to any wrestling show. Every
day I'm talking about this ever anywhere ever is so like this has got to
be one of the earliest outres I've ever seen Freddie show every day of my
life, like this is legitimate. So the show ends with Stephanie and Shane
outside the venue fucking talking shit to Freddie Blastie in a wheelchair. Brooklyn brawlers
trying to like escort Freddy Blastie out of the building and Shane AND's definitely stop
them and they both kneel down. Freddy Blastie old in a wheelchair dying probably.
Shane says, you think were sitting there had any impact at all?
And Steff says, do you think what Stone Cold did out there had any
impact? And she says, you think is gonna have any impact at all
on DC www Jeff Jared's stroking his shin. Well, she says the answer
is no, And Steph says, I know we will have a lot of
impact. You and the WWF have a lot in common. You're both about
to die. And then they just wheel Freddy blacks away and that's it.
That's it, man. I don't even think day wheel away. I think,
yeah, I thought they were gonna like kill him, but they don't
kill him. They should have him or something. Yeah, that's what I
thought they were gonna do. But no, So we gotta go watch the
tape. That was very that was fucking crazy. Yeah, Freddy blast he
should die. You will die. Thank you. Yeah, Freddy blast he
passed away two thousand and three, so like they wheeled him away and told
him to die and then never followed up. And there was like the I
think the idea was like we could get them crazy heat by doing this,
and Freddie Blastie, of course it's just being old school, said yeah,
you should tell me to die. So like I just on the tron,
I don't know, I don't know. Austin was still going crazy kicking everyone
off. Austin, Dude, Austins kicking their ass and they're on the tron
behind him. You should die, Freddie Blassie. It is says like,
do you think Austin kicking everybody's ass in w and or w w and ecw
met anything at all that that didn't mean anything, that doesn't matter. Okay,
here we go, Here we go. So there's a couple of things
that happened here. Um Freddy Blassie appeared in the episode We Watched for the
Invasions to Line uh and he got mocked by Stephanie because of this. Blassie
is one of, if not the only, man to have worked with all
four generations of the McMahon family. Um images from his WrestleMania fifteen promo were
also included in the opening of two thousand and one Survivor series that would be
like the blowoff of the Invasion. Yes, I remember. He also appeared
in a segment at Vengeance in the same year in December, where an undisputed
champion would be crowned, and his final appearance was May twelfth, two thousand
and three, in Philly on Raw, three weeks before his death. The
segment featured Blassie, his wife, and Eric Bischoff, who was about to
allow three minute warning to attack Freddy Blassy until his stone cools he Boston and
the Dull Boy stunt. Then and his final words on WTV where divon get
the table to a monster. That's awesome, school, that's awesome. That
is that is pretty sweet, actually okay, but guy like me having three
minute warning, that's sounds crazy every time they bring it in. Fucking Freddy
Blass We're gonna kick your hand, k asshole. That's fucking sick. But
yeah, there you go. That was Monday Night Raw, the the last
Raw before the Invasion. Interesting show. Maybe not a single match to remember,
no, but the stone cold moment is all time for I mean,
that is why you watched this episode because it is legit one of the craziest
reactions ever. Yeah. I don't think there's any raw I ever really that
we watched where it's like that they got a match tier remember I guess.
But it's it's so unique because, like you know, usually Austin pop is
from oh fuck, here comes Austin. But Austin was already like they showed
him on the tron. They knew he was coming. He was beating people
up along the way, and the pop was even crazier than like almost like
the only the one I can think in comparison was when he helps Folly win
the belt. Yeah, yeah, this is they were there. They were
already channing Austin. Austin, Yeah, they know he was coming, and
they still came for it. It was like, oh these hit Yeah,
they were good at building that up. Yeah, it was sweet. I
agree. But that was Monday Night Raw for July sixteen, two thousand and
one, and that is a show. Thank you so much for joining us
