00:00:43.390 --> 00:00:47.009
SmackDown on My Network TV set out to change the
10
00:00:47.070 --> 00:00:51.530
face of pro wrestling. They didn't, but they tried. They
11
00:00:51.549 --> 00:00:54.929

about wwe smackdown october 3rd 2008 all.
48
00:02:28.210 --> 00:02:32.969
Right let's get into wwe smackdown for october 3rd 2008
49
00:02:32.969 --> 00:02:35.189
what year 2008.
50
00:02:35.150 --> 00:02:40.560
How's that how's that 2008 that's a that's a deadly
51
00:02:40.599 --> 00:02:42.449
year james i feel like If I talk about 2008
52
00:02:42.449 --> 00:02:45.689
too many more times this year, I'm going to explode.
53
00:02:45.990 --> 00:02:48.849
You know that 2008 is eight years after 2000? What? Yeah,
54
00:02:48.930 --> 00:02:51.849
that's right. You know 2008 is almost 20 years ago? Nah.
55
00:02:51.889 --> 00:02:52.330
That's right.
56
00:02:52.349 --> 00:02:53.229
Nah.
57
00:03:01.199 --> 00:03:04.159
It's close. It's closer to not. It's closer to is
58
00:03:04.199 --> 00:03:06.900
than not. You know what I'm saying? So we, of course,
59
00:03:07.039 --> 00:03:09.360
recently talked about 2008, but it was TNA. It was
60
00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:12.810
TNA at the Hard Rock, their first Outside of Impact episode,
61
00:03:12.840 --> 00:03:17.469
and we're venturing back to 2008 here. I think the
62
00:03:17.509 --> 00:03:21.490
last time we talked about SmackDown 2008 was the Halloween
63
00:03:21.530 --> 00:03:25.460
episode in 2008, which we, of course, talked about in 2020.
64
00:03:25.460 --> 00:03:28.300
Wow, was it that long ago? That's the one where
65
00:03:28.620 --> 00:03:30.620
JR was dressed up as the sailor.
66
00:03:30.939 --> 00:03:34.360
Yes, and Taz, yeah, right, yes. Taz was John Cena.
67
00:03:37.979 --> 00:03:39.439
So it's been quite some time, and of course this
68
00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:45.000
episode is about the My Network TV debut of SmackDown.
69
00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:47.460
They are leaving the CW, and I thought we had
70
00:03:47.500 --> 00:03:51.250
already covered all the new network deals from this company,
71
00:03:51.289 --> 00:03:54.449
but you stumbled upon this My Network TV one, and
72
00:03:54.509 --> 00:03:57.110
why not check it out? damn that was me huh
73
00:03:57.430 --> 00:03:58.969
yep i'm gonna put this on you just and i
74
00:03:58.969 -->
00:04:01.789
made sure i made sure that people knew that this
75
00:04:01.889 --> 00:04:04.949
is you hey come on man what did i even
76
00:04:04.990 --> 00:04:06.969
what i even find it was like a commercial for
77
00:04:07.009 --> 00:04:09.650
my network tv or something right yeah it was the
78
00:04:09.830 --> 00:04:11.909
ad for the thing and like i think you saw
79
00:04:11.969 --> 00:04:15.159
like that was an all-star episode and i know how
80
00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:19.019
much you love 2008 wwe god damn it man like
81
00:04:19.410 --> 00:04:23.449
I really gotta stop fucking sending shit to you, man. Well,
82
00:04:23.470 --> 00:04:25.389
you know, you should know that I'm gonna write it down. Like,
83
00:04:25.439 --> 00:04:29.839
it goes in my list of things that James suggested. Oh, great.
84
00:04:31.160 --> 00:04:34.819
So that's why we're here! Hooray! Well, before we get
85
00:04:34.839 --> 00:04:37.279
into this episode of SmackDown from 2008 that was picked
86
00:04:37.300 --> 00:04:39.000
by James, let's take a look at what was going
87
00:04:39.060 --> 00:04:40.519
on in the world of wrestling at the time with
88
00:04:40.899 --> 00:04:49.160
Wrestling Observer Newsletter. From the Observer October 6th, 2008... Meltzer writes,
89
00:04:49.220 --> 00:04:51.519
while it's been known for several months, now that it
90
00:04:51.579 --> 00:04:54.160
is upon us, there is an eerie reaction to SmackDown's
91
00:04:54.199 --> 00:04:57.120
move to My Network TV with an all-star show on
92
00:04:57.439 --> 00:05:01.100
October 3rd. While My Network is available in 96% of
93
00:05:01.120 --> 00:05:03.699
the homes in the US, a similar percentage as CW
94
00:05:04.110 --> 00:05:07.449
on average, it gets one third of the audience just about.
95
00:05:08.149 --> 00:05:12.089
SmackDown will bring the gap closer and put MNTV, I'm
96
00:05:12.129 --> 00:05:14.389
not saying that, that's fucking hard, My Network TV on
97
00:05:14.410 --> 00:05:17.990
the map with at least one destination program. WWE is
98
00:05:18.009 --> 00:05:20.410
getting more money and they'll get what they want. And
99
00:05:20.470 --> 00:05:22.769
when they want it in the relationship, whereas CW had
100
00:05:22.819 --> 00:05:25.220
shows that may not have been a higher rated, but
101
00:05:25.379 --> 00:05:27.980
fetched a lot better ad rates and that CW would
102
00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:31.459
publicly brag about a lot more. My network TV, while
103
00:05:31.500 --> 00:05:34.620
a broadcast network with affiliates in virtually every major market
104
00:05:34.939 --> 00:05:37.639
and available in more homes than a cable station actually
105
00:05:37.680 --> 00:05:40.600
draws ratings so low that it would not be among
106
00:05:40.839 --> 00:05:44.449
the top 25 cable stations. You're talking about a network
107
00:05:44.490 --> 00:05:50.379
that in actuality is weaker than either sci-fi or spike TV. I, uh,
108
00:05:50.470 --> 00:05:52.269
I don't know much about why they made the move here.
109
00:05:52.310 --> 00:05:54.449
I'm assuming just their CW deal was done. And from
110
00:05:54.490 --> 00:05:55.970
what it reads here, they were just getting a lot
111
00:05:55.990 --> 00:05:59.670
more money from my network TV somehow, which does worse. But, uh,
112
00:06:00.519 --> 00:06:03.720
I really, I don't remember this. I got to be honest. Like,
113
00:06:03.980 --> 00:06:06.220
I'm sure I was still watching WWE at the time.
114
00:06:06.600 --> 00:06:10.579
I was probably way more into Indies and, if anything, TNA. But, like,
115
00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:14.100
I don't really remember much about them moving networks here.
116
00:06:14.399 --> 00:06:15.240
Halo 3 was out.
117
00:06:15.259 --> 00:06:16.019
I'm not watching this.
118
00:06:16.040 --> 00:06:23.879
Are you serious? Kane is on the show. I mean,
119
00:06:24.430 --> 00:06:26.430
in my brain, 2008 was a bad year all around.
120
00:06:26.459 --> 00:06:27.889
Was it a lot better than I thought it was?
121
00:06:28.110 --> 00:06:29.129
Was it just bad for wrestling?
122
00:06:29.670 --> 00:06:32.209
I mean, 2008, you know, the market fell out, you know?
123
00:06:32.269 --> 00:06:34.810
For everybody, it was pretty bad. I mean, Guitar Hero
124
00:06:34.850 --> 00:06:36.029
was out, though, so that was cool.
125
00:06:36.350 --> 00:06:37.430
Grand Theft Auto 4 came out.
126
00:06:37.930 --> 00:06:39.699
I looked up my network TV, by the way, because
127
00:06:39.720 --> 00:06:42.420
I was interested just in this in general, because I
128
00:06:42.459 --> 00:06:44.639
remember seeing this logo on TV. Most of the time,
129
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:46.879
I remember it from, like, they would play, like, the
130
00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:50.779
shows for, like, courtrooms and stuff, like the Judge Joe Brown.
131
00:06:50.790 --> 00:06:52.529
I think, and stuff like that, you know? Sure.
132
00:06:52.550 --> 00:06:55.689
And maybe they did some, like, Law & Order type
133
00:06:55.730 --> 00:06:57.410
of shit back then, too. I just remember seeing it
134
00:06:57.449 --> 00:07:00.410
on TV. I almost feel like I thought I maybe
135
00:07:00.490 --> 00:07:02.629
I was confused back then. I swear it was like
136
00:07:02.670 --> 00:07:04.649
a local network or something. I thought it was like,
137
00:07:04.680 --> 00:07:05.839
you know, affiliate network.
138
00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:09.740
Yeah, it definitely feels like that. Like I thought even
139
00:07:09.759 --> 00:07:11.319
just from how it sounds, it just sounds like a
140
00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:13.339
local thing. Like my network TV was just what it
141
00:07:13.360 --> 00:07:14.899
was called in Philly. But no, this was just where
142
00:07:14.939 --> 00:07:15.759
it was called everywhere.
143
00:07:15.779 --> 00:07:17.139
Yeah, I looked it up to see if it was
144
00:07:17.160 --> 00:07:19.779
still around. I guess technically it is still around, but
145
00:07:19.819 --> 00:07:22.300
I guess it's not a TV
network anymore. Oh, I
146
00:07:22.319 --> 00:07:25.949
guess it's just a programming block now that Fox owns
147
00:07:26.009 --> 00:07:27.689
and stuff like that. So they play like reruns of
148
00:07:27.730 --> 00:07:30.870
like Law and Order and Chicago PD and stuff like that.
149
00:07:31.649 --> 00:07:34.149
But right here, it says that it started in 2006
150
00:07:34.149 --> 00:07:36.970
by Fox to fill a gap left when UPN and
151
00:07:36.990 --> 00:07:40.089
the WB merged into the CW. So it was essentially
152
00:07:40.410 --> 00:07:43.810
to replace the CW, which I guess WB had just left.
153
00:07:43.889 --> 00:07:46.379
So like, it seems like that would be a perfect
154
00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:49.420
place to go, right? It's kind of like, I don't
155
00:07:49.439 --> 00:07:51.139
know if it's a challenger network, but that's kind of
156
00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:52.519
like the idea, I think, right?
157
00:07:52.860 --> 00:07:55.079
That's what it feels like, right? You're taking like CW's,
158
00:07:55.300 --> 00:07:58.480
what I assume was their top program and trying to
159
00:07:58.639 --> 00:08:00.759
make your own thing with it. Yeah, like that's exactly
160
00:08:00.779 --> 00:08:01.379
what this feels like.
161
00:08:01.879 --> 00:08:03.699
So they played like soap operas and stuff, you know,
162
00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:05.600
on the channel. And then I guess they tried to
163
00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:08.000
do stuff like wrestling here. I guess they tried to
164
00:08:08.040 --> 00:08:10.740
do some reality shows too. But I guess it stopped
165
00:08:10.759 --> 00:08:13.139
being a traditional network in 2009. So this did not.
166
00:08:14.970 --> 00:08:18.129
Last long oh at all yeah it didn't last long
167
00:08:18.170 --> 00:08:20.790
at all it turned into a late afternoon and prime
168
00:08:20.829 --> 00:08:24.990
time syndication programming service so like a programming block where
169
00:08:25.009 --> 00:08:27.089
they kind of do reruns of syndicated stuff which would
170
00:08:27.110 --> 00:08:29.709
be like i think syndications like any show that makes
171
00:08:29.790 --> 00:08:31.509
it to like 100 episodes or something like that or
172
00:08:31.620 --> 00:08:34.139
yes some deal like that so yeah that's kind of.
173
00:08:34.120 --> 00:08:36.549
What they would play And I'm sure there is an
174
00:08:36.730 --> 00:08:39.370
unbelievable amount of ads on that too, or at least,
175
00:08:39.389 --> 00:08:42.620
you know, like, you know, like the after midnight, here's like,
176
00:08:42.879 --> 00:08:45.299
it's not a show. It's, but it's also not an ad.
177
00:08:45.340 --> 00:08:48.639
It's paid advertisement deals. Little Slap Chop won't get you,
178
00:08:48.779 --> 00:08:50.259
you know, that'll get you right. Little Slap Chop.
179
00:08:50.539 --> 00:08:52.399
Yeah, Slap Chop. I mean, there was a couple of them.
180
00:08:52.419 --> 00:08:55.070
There was like the fucking random objects that were like
181
00:08:55.110 --> 00:08:57.340
for kids and shit. Like there was like the, Oh,
182
00:08:57.360 --> 00:08:59.519
the Orb fucking thing? Yeah, the Orb one was a
183
00:08:59.519 --> 00:09:01.080
big one. I remember that one. There was like some
184
00:09:01.120 --> 00:09:03.059
hula hoop deal they had at one time where you
185
00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:04.919
could spin it around a bunch of shit like that.
186
00:09:04.940 --> 00:09:06.519
Yeah, there was a ton of stuff they would just
187
00:09:06.539 --> 00:09:09.899
show on that for just random shit. Viagra was huge.
188
00:09:09.940 --> 00:09:13.059
There was always some Viagra deal, but it was never Viagra.
189
00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:15.580
It was like, yeah, we have the off-brand Viagra or whatever.
190
00:09:15.600 --> 00:09:19.059
That was a big one too. Yeah, I don't even know.
191
00:09:19.419 --> 00:09:21.679
Do they do that anymore? Like paid program? I'm guessing
192
00:09:21.700 --> 00:09:22.039
they do.
193
00:09:22.100 --> 00:09:24.779
I assume, yeah, I believe so. I'm sure like, you know,
194
00:09:24.830 --> 00:09:27.100
like you mentioned, like a lot of local... deals probably
195
00:09:27.120 --> 00:09:29.220
still do that but yeah i think paid programming is
196
00:09:29.379 --> 00:09:32.330
uh is still a thing maybe not as prevalent like
197
00:09:32.809 --> 00:09:34.809
anyone that does that probably just fucking goes on shark
198
00:09:34.830 --> 00:09:35.970
tank yeah.
199
00:09:35.830 --> 00:09:37.710
You're probably right i mean i don't even know too
200
00:09:37.750 --> 00:09:40.549
many people that still watch traditional tvs uh one of.
201
00:09:40.549 --> 00:09:42.500
The key components of the draft was to get ready
202
00:09:42.580 --> 00:09:45.899
for the move to my network tv by sending triple
203
00:09:46.059 --> 00:09:49.139
h jeff hardy and jim ross to smackdown but the
204
00:09:49.159 --> 00:09:52.740
moves did nothing to help smackdown's ratings Well, I don't
205
00:09:52.909 --> 00:09:55.740
know if we all should be blamed. That's crazy, man.
206
00:09:55.779 --> 00:09:57.720
Like they they like locked them up they said who
207
00:09:57.740 --> 00:09:59.500
we need to send over man they said we need
208
00:09:59.539 --> 00:10:03.080
triple h jeff hardy and jim ross with that.
209
00:10:04.779 --> 00:10:07.379
You know sean i mean i've i've i've been on
210
00:10:07.450 --> 00:10:11.049
the most watched wwe shows of all time and you
211
00:10:11.090 --> 00:10:13.309
know maybe the other two can take a little blame
212
00:10:13.350 --> 00:10:15.149
here instead of good old jr.
213
00:10:15.240 --> 00:10:17.059
I heard the ratings are great. Matter of fact, I
214
00:10:17.080 --> 00:10:19.659
heard it's better than UFC on Spike TV by a lot.
215
00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:24.899
Oh my God. More men have watched WWE than ever
216
00:10:25.000 --> 00:10:26.659
in 2008 from what I'm understanding.
217
00:10:27.100 --> 00:10:29.659
Yeah, man, like UFC stood no chance
because you have
218
00:10:29.700 --> 00:10:32.220
no chance. I mean, like what I'm told from WWE,
219
00:10:32.620 --> 00:10:37.049
UFC got absolutely gobsmacked by SmackDown.
220
00:10:37.570 --> 00:10:40.149
How awesome was that? Like, I love watching back at
221
00:10:40.190 --> 00:10:43.149
this era specifically because they started like just straight up
222
00:10:43.529 --> 00:10:46.830
doing anything they could to shit on anybody around them. Yeah, dude,
223
00:10:46.850 --> 00:10:49.799
like we were watched by so many more people than
224
00:10:49.840 --> 00:10:54.259
the kickoff weekend of the NFL. Like, fuck those guys. Yeah, man,
225
00:10:54.299 --> 00:10:58.639
fuck the Eagles. Huh? What the fuck? I didn't say
226
00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:02.230
that on the sheet. I didn't say that. No way. Wow,
227
00:11:02.289 --> 00:11:04.929
why'd they say that? That sucks. They should fucking look
228
00:11:04.950 --> 00:11:07.889
at worse teams than blue. I don't know who that
229
00:11:07.909 --> 00:11:12.059
would be. The Lions. Oh, right. Yes, there you go.
230
00:11:14.230 --> 00:11:16.350
The first show was loaded up and promoted heavier than
231
00:11:16.370 --> 00:11:19.309
the pay-per-view two nights later, which was no mercy, of course.
232
00:11:19.889 --> 00:11:22.149
They put WrestleMania on free television for the first time
233
00:11:22.210 --> 00:11:25.100
since 1995, the night before, to get the audience used
234
00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:27.230
to the new station. I wonder what mania they put.
235
00:11:27.240 --> 00:11:28.220
Do you think it was the latest one?
236
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:29.980
It was probably like WrestleMania 20.
237
00:11:29.960 --> 00:11:41.259
That's holy shit. what that's wow that's a good one yeah.
238
00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:45.320
I mean like that's the one it probably did in
239
00:11:45.399 --> 00:11:47.559
full in full i'm sure as well of.
240
00:11:47.559 --> 00:11:57.389
Course that right well Maybe not in full. Oh! I
241
00:11:57.450 --> 00:12:02.570
see now you've figured this out. Right. That was awesome.
242
00:12:02.929 --> 00:12:06.740
I mean, that was like pretty... That was a real pull? Yeah,
243
00:12:06.750 --> 00:12:09.389
that was pretty close to this dive. Well, they showed
244
00:12:09.409 --> 00:12:12.019
that on TV, whichever one it was. Probably wasn't that one.
245
00:12:13.019 --> 00:12:18.480
There has been significant... I guess I'm good. No one
246
00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:21.100
was watching, so you can do what you want. That's
247
00:12:21.159 --> 00:12:22.360
a lie, because....
248
00:12:23.899 --> 00:12:25.240
I was told there's a lot of people watching.
249
00:12:28.049 --> 00:12:30.090
The world is watching, actually. That's what they tell me
250
00:12:30.110 --> 00:12:33.350
at the start. There has been significant major promotions in
251
00:12:33.370 --> 00:12:37.370
top markets, including billboards, parties, and promotional appearances. Oh, you
252
00:12:37.389 --> 00:12:39.409
go to the 2008 Mind Network TV party, James?
253
00:12:39.769 --> 00:12:40.279
Yeah, yeah.
254
00:12:40.299 --> 00:12:45.899
There was a billboard there. And I saw it. And
255
00:12:45.940 --> 00:12:47.899
you weren't playing Halo 3. You were fucking getting ready
256
00:12:47.919 --> 00:12:48.620
for SmackDown.
257
00:12:48.840 --> 00:12:52.120
Dude, I can guarantee all my life That I was
258
00:12:52.149 --> 00:12:55.159
not thinking of SmackDown in the least in 2008.
259
00:12:55.159 --> 00:12:58.059
I got to tell you, pal. You're telling me after
260
00:12:58.080 --> 00:13:01.600
a long day at school, you weren't thinking all day.
261
00:13:01.620 --> 00:13:03.379
It's Friday, right? It's Friday. We're about to have the
262
00:13:03.419 --> 00:13:05.940
weekend and you're not excited to come home and get
263
00:13:05.980 --> 00:13:07.940
ready at 8 p.m. to tune into my network TV
264
00:13:07.960 --> 00:13:08.779
to watch Kozlov.
265
00:13:09.220 --> 00:13:11.600
My 25 year old teammates at the time were probably
266
00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:12.820
pissed off that I had.
267
00:13:12.700 --> 00:13:13.620
School in the first place.
268
00:13:14.429 --> 00:13:16.830
I had to come home and scrim. I don't have
269
00:13:16.870 --> 00:13:17.730
time for this shit.
270
00:13:17.769 --> 00:13:19.769
You know what I mean? I'm not watching this. You
271
00:13:19.809 --> 00:13:21.950
can't tell them, hold on, boys, can we do it Saturday?
272
00:13:22.090 --> 00:13:24.169
Because I got to watch SmackDown. No, we need the
273
00:13:24.190 --> 00:13:28.960
whole weekend. Come on. But Kozlov. Dude, there's actually people
274
00:13:29.080 --> 00:13:30.899
on this show. I swear to God, I've watched a
275
00:13:30.940 --> 00:13:32.399
lot of wrestling in my life, man. I've watched a
276
00:13:32.419 --> 00:13:35.220
ton of it. I've never seen these fucking people before.
277
00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:40.360
I couldn't believe it. 2008 is a sinkhole for wrestling
278
00:13:40.379 --> 00:13:43.169
in my brain. TNA has booked a hard rock in
279
00:13:43.190 --> 00:13:45.850
Las Vegas, the home site of WEC for a live
280
00:13:46.049 --> 00:13:49.389
October 23rd TV impact show. Spike wants TNA to produce
281
00:13:49.450 --> 00:13:51.750
a special show to hype up TNA. From that point forward,
282
00:13:52.269 --> 00:13:55.120
we'll be shot in high definition. Tickets will be priced
283
00:13:55.139 --> 00:13:59.149
from $ 23 to $ 63 in the 1,000 seat joint. Joint
284
00:13:59.190 --> 00:14:00.389
is the name of it. He's not just calling it
285
00:14:00.429 --> 00:14:02.250
a joint. The joint is what the name is. The
286
00:14:02.289 --> 00:14:05.889
joint's going to be jumping. WWE is doing SmackDown slash
287
00:14:05.929 --> 00:14:09.629
ECW taping at the Thomas and Mac Center on October 14th.
288
00:14:10.370 --> 00:14:12.429
And I put this here just because we just reviewed this.
289
00:14:12.990 --> 00:14:15.330
We just covered this episode of TNA.
So if you
290
00:14:15.350 --> 00:14:17.200
want to hear a review of it and see what
291
00:14:17.250 --> 00:14:19.519
we were talking about. And it's also the debut of
292
00:14:19.559 --> 00:14:21.899
the Main Event Mafia on that episode.
293
00:14:22.259 --> 00:14:24.240
Yeah, I think WWE went to high definition at the
294
00:14:24.259 --> 00:14:27.490
beginning of the year. So TNA doesn't go high definition
295
00:14:27.529 --> 00:14:30.259
until yeah, that show right there. So that's like towards
296
00:14:30.279 --> 00:14:30.879
the end of the year.
297
00:14:30.940 --> 00:14:32.899
Yeah. But at least they're getting to that point. So
298
00:14:33.759 --> 00:14:36.759
in more WWE news, the latest thing Vince has been
299
00:14:36.799 --> 00:14:38.480
talking about is that he feels the wrestlers need to
300
00:14:38.500 --> 00:14:43.360
become better actors. Oh, that's, Fucking good. The idea is
301
00:14:43.379 --> 00:14:45.139
that Raw has to be able to stand up to
302
00:14:45.159 --> 00:14:48.029
the standards of acting on a regular television show, and
303
00:14:48.049 --> 00:14:49.850
a lot of the wrestlers backstage, or sorry, a lot
304
00:14:49.909 --> 00:14:53.090
of the wrestlers in backstage vignettes aren't very good actors.
305
00:14:53.809 --> 00:14:55.970
One of the new roles for Freddie Prinze Jr., who
306
00:14:56.009 --> 00:14:58.309
remains a writing assistant on the SmackDown side working underneath
307
00:14:58.350 --> 00:15:01.899
Michael Hayes and Christopher DeJoseph, is to teach guys better
308
00:15:02.179 --> 00:15:05.259
acting skills. Yeah, man, like I watched this show, and
309
00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:07.960
that was like my biggest takeaway was, man, I wish
310
00:15:07.980 --> 00:15:10.360
these guys could act better. Yeah, me too.
311
00:15:10.399 --> 00:15:12.000
You know, that was like the biggest thing on this
312
00:15:12.110 --> 00:15:14.490
one was, wow, some shitty acting on this show.
313
00:15:15.470 --> 00:15:17.970
Yeah, like, I was super into everything that they were
314
00:15:17.990 --> 00:15:21.230
selling me here until I fucking saw this acting. I mean,
315
00:15:21.309 --> 00:15:23.509
Big Show tanked this show, man. He needs to learn
316
00:15:23.570 --> 00:15:27.480
how to act. Hey, man, that's the interim SmackDown general manager.
317
00:15:28.000 --> 00:15:30.340
Which we don't find out immediately somehow. I can't wait
318
00:15:30.360 --> 00:15:33.059
to talk about this fucking shit, actually. Like, I was tilted.
319
00:15:36.669 --> 00:15:39.149
From the Observer, October 13th, 2008, just a couple more
320
00:15:39.190 --> 00:15:41.769
things here. One of the reasons behind putting the Colognes together, James,
321
00:15:41.860 --> 00:15:44.600
as a team, is the idea that it will improve Carlito.
322
00:15:45.100 --> 00:15:47.279
Primo has a great attitude and works hard, and they
323
00:15:47.320 --> 00:15:49.019
are hopeful it will rub off on Carlito with the
324
00:15:49.039 --> 00:15:51.490
idea that he won't want little brother to outshine him.
325
00:15:52.179 --> 00:15:54.429
So they put these guys together because they think Carlito sucks.
326
00:15:54.590 --> 00:15:56.610
Well, I got to tell you, like, You know, I
327
00:15:56.649 --> 00:15:58.570
don't know if I've seen very much of Carlito and
328
00:15:58.629 --> 00:16:02.470
Primo together, but they have very good like chemistry, I thought.
329
00:16:02.769 --> 00:16:06.340
Yes, I do, too. And like, listen, I like Carlito. Fuck.
330
00:16:06.580 --> 00:16:08.960
Fuck what they're saying, man. Leave my guy alone. He
331
00:16:08.980 --> 00:16:11.399
got dealt a hand. And yeah. Yeah.
332
00:16:11.440 --> 00:16:14.000
I mean, like, I don't know what happened between this
333
00:16:14.090 --> 00:16:16.230
point and the time where Ric Flair said he sucked.
334
00:16:16.730 --> 00:16:19.090
But he never shook that, man. It took him a while.
335
00:16:19.820 --> 00:16:22.720
Last thing here, the SmackDown debut with an all-star lineup
336
00:16:22.779 --> 00:16:26.379
drew a 1.9 rating and 3.2 million viewers. It was
337
00:16:26.399 --> 00:16:28.580
the highest rated show in the history of My Network TV,
338
00:16:28.600 --> 00:16:31.159
and both sides touted it as a victory. It clearly
339
00:16:31.200 --> 00:16:32.840
was for the network, but it's hard to say if
340
00:16:32.860 --> 00:16:36.139
that's the case for WWE, being down from a 2.4
341
00:16:36.139 --> 00:16:40.139
rating and 4.41 million viewers the week before a show
342
00:16:40.419 --> 00:16:43.840
that wasn't hyped 10% as hard. That's a 27% drop
343
00:16:43.879 --> 00:16:46.059
in viewers after a week where both WWE and My
344
00:16:46.080 --> 00:16:51.279
Network spent tons of money advertising the switch. 3.2 million is,
345
00:16:51.360 --> 00:16:53.659
I mean, by today's standards, that would be fucking unbelievable.
346
00:16:53.700 --> 00:16:57.950
But here, it was a 27% drop from one network
347
00:16:57.990 --> 00:16:59.169
to the other here for SmackDown.
348
00:16:59.690 --> 00:17:01.309
Yeah, I don't know if these numbers make any sense.
349
00:17:01.350 --> 00:17:04.509
Later on, they told me they drew like 45 million people.
350
00:17:07.410 --> 00:17:10.180
Well, that's, you know, that's when you account for inflation.
351
00:17:10.220 --> 00:17:16.339
They were accounting for inflation in 2008. As it was happening. Yeah. Right. Okay. Yeah.
352
00:17:16.420 --> 00:17:20.289
That sounds like WWE. Well, this is a lot more
353
00:17:20.329 --> 00:17:21.890
people if you look 20 years into the future.
354
00:17:22.269 --> 00:17:23.650
That's how they were paying dudes, too.
355
00:17:25.309 --> 00:17:26.769
You're right. Holy fuck.
356
00:17:27.349 --> 00:17:30.390
Here's $ 1, 000. 15 years from now, this would be like $ 2, 500.
357
00:17:30.269 --> 00:17:33.450
That's going to mean more if you start saving, Sean.
358
00:17:33.470 --> 00:17:38.250
If you start saving now, Jesse and Festus,
you'll do
359
00:17:38.289 --> 00:17:41.950
just fine. Well, that is it for the Observers. Now
360
00:17:41.970 --> 00:17:45.750
let's talk about WWE SmackDown October 3rd, 2008.
361
00:17:48.650 --> 00:17:53.170
All right, let's get into this 2008 SmackDown. Yes, sir,
362
00:17:53.210 --> 00:17:55.049
we promise you a great main event here tonight.
363
00:17:55.069 --> 00:17:59.529
Freddie Blassie, the maker of champions. Andre the Giant. WrestleMania.
364
00:17:59.589 --> 00:18:03.380
Pokamania is running wild. Rest in peace. My God, what
365
00:18:03.390 --> 00:18:07.539
a night. If you smell your fire. Give me a
366
00:18:07.700 --> 00:18:13.000
hell yeah. It's not over. The world is watching. Dude,
367
00:18:13.019 --> 00:18:14.680
there's one. You brought this up to me, and I
368
00:18:14.700 --> 00:18:15.960
got to bring this up to the people because we
369
00:18:16.009 --> 00:18:21.039
need the investigative reporters on the scene here. After... They say, yes, sir,
370
00:18:21.079 --> 00:18:23.480
we promise you a great main event tonight. Something is
371
00:18:23.539 --> 00:18:25.539
said and we can't figure out what it is.
372
00:18:25.960 --> 00:18:28.319
Yeah, I have no idea. Like I couldn't even I
373
00:18:28.519 --> 00:18:30.059
looked it up. I couldn't find nothing. I have no
374
00:18:30.099 --> 00:18:30.720
idea what it said.
375
00:18:31.279 --> 00:18:33.960
It's in between the first line and the Freddie Blassie line.
376
00:18:33.980 --> 00:18:36.349
There's something there that the Freddie Blassie line like trumps
377
00:18:36.529 --> 00:18:38.119
and we can't figure it out. We can't hear it.
378
00:18:38.430 --> 00:18:40.150
It's some guy yelling. I don't know what it says.
379
00:18:40.369 --> 00:18:42.289
We need to know. It's important to history.
380
00:18:42.809 --> 00:18:45.849
So we start off here with the 2008 Smackdown intro.
381
00:18:46.309 --> 00:18:48.880
And I am not kidding you. I don't think I've
382
00:18:49.019 --> 00:18:50.180
ever seen this intro before.
383
00:18:50.559 --> 00:18:53.740
So, I mean, you probably have just from the video games. No,
384
00:18:54.069 --> 00:18:54.650
I wrote it down.
385
00:18:54.670 --> 00:18:56.150
I actually wrote that down in my thing.
386
00:18:56.450 --> 00:18:57.750
I don't think I've ever even seen this in a
387
00:18:57.769 --> 00:19:01.390
video game. Maybe not. It would have been 09 then
388
00:19:01.690 --> 00:19:03.579
if you would have seen it or 20. I don't
389
00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:04.960
know how long it lasts, but this is the first
390
00:19:05.000 --> 00:19:06.480
time they show this. This is, of course, their new
391
00:19:06.539 --> 00:19:09.740
network debut with a new intro and new song. If
392
00:19:09.779 --> 00:19:12.380
you rock like me. Song sucks.
393
00:19:12.660 --> 00:19:15.140
Yeah, they switched the song, like, within the year, I guess,
394
00:19:15.180 --> 00:19:16.900
because they switch off this network within the.
395
00:19:16.839 -->
00:19:19.000
Year, too, but... Oh, what did they change to?
396
00:19:19.380 --> 00:19:22.440
They changed it to Let It Roll by Divide the Day.
397
00:19:22.460 --> 00:19:25.740
Oh, let it roll, let it roll, I'm unstoppable. I
398
00:19:25.740 --> 00:19:26.160
know that one.
399
00:19:26.490 --> 00:19:29.750
Yeah, so, like, never seen this before in my life,
400
00:19:31.150 --> 00:19:34.490
which is odd, because I played those games a lot,
401
00:19:35.130 --> 00:19:38.819
and I somehow just... no clue what this was so
402
00:19:39.220 --> 00:19:39.759
yeah it had to.
403
00:19:39.740 --> 00:19:41.599
Have been in like the universe mode or something it
404
00:19:41.640 --> 00:19:44.119
had to like it i mean you know it obviously
405
00:19:44.160 --> 00:19:46.210
doesn't last long like you said and by the time
406
00:19:46.230 --> 00:19:48.190
spr 2010 comes out like.
407
00:19:48.089 --> 00:19:51.900
It's gone universe mode even in 09 fuck no is
408
00:19:51.980 --> 00:19:56.000
it no yeah i don't remember i've never seen this shit.
409
00:19:55.640 --> 00:19:59.089
No shit maybe not fuck holy shit maybe you're right
410
00:19:59.430 --> 00:20:01.730
yeah right i was like super confused i was.
411
00:20:01.670 --> 00:20:04.450
Like okay they got by mere cause lava.
412
00:20:04.150 --> 00:20:06.690
Here they got all the goats in there they got
413
00:20:06.769 --> 00:20:10.210
umaga Kendrick and Zeke Kozloff. Triple H is in it
414
00:20:10.250 --> 00:20:12.809
a lot, of course, because now he's got to work Fridays.
415
00:20:12.849 --> 00:20:14.430
He's not happy about that. He was trying to fucking
416
00:20:14.450 --> 00:20:15.210
take the weekend off.
417
00:20:15.509 --> 00:20:17.210
Yeah, I mean, it looked high definition. I'll tell you
418
00:20:17.230 --> 00:20:17.670
that much.
419
00:20:18.079 --> 00:20:20.819
Sure. I liked what they were going for there. It
420
00:20:20.839 --> 00:20:23.779
kind of felt TNA-like with the shots. Yeah, okay. I
421
00:20:23.799 --> 00:20:26.039
could see that for sure. Like they were blending in
422
00:20:26.059 --> 00:20:29.000
like the studio shots with the behind them doing moves deals.
423
00:20:29.039 --> 00:20:32.839
Like it kind of felt like that. I liked it, though.
424
00:20:32.880 --> 00:20:34.220
I didn't like the song, though. I thought the song
425
00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:34.720
sucked ass.
426
00:20:34.900 --> 00:20:36.759
That's a Jim Johnston classic right there.
427
00:20:37.140 --> 00:20:41.589
Yeah, Jim Johnson featuring Jim Bagia, also known as Jimmy Bell.
428
00:20:41.769 --> 00:20:44.089
Or was it also Jimmy Bell in this? All you
429
00:20:44.109 --> 00:20:46.289
guys should be ashamed. Three Jims made a shitty song.
430
00:20:49.910 --> 00:20:51.480
You know, I heard it.
431
00:20:51.519 --> 00:20:51.720
I saw it.
432
00:20:51.799 --> 00:20:54.319
I watched it. I don't remember it. Yeah, that's probably
433
00:20:54.339 --> 00:20:57.180
for good reason. That's probably what happened
the first time
434
00:20:57.200 --> 00:20:59.200
I ever saw this, too. I probably have seen this.
435
00:20:59.279 --> 00:21:02.230
I just don't remember a damn thing about it. Nothing
436
00:21:02.250 --> 00:21:03.430
to remember, buddy. You're fine.
437
00:21:03.769 --> 00:21:04.690
It's a song like this.
438
00:21:04.789 --> 00:21:06.230
If you're rock like me.
439
00:21:06.259 --> 00:21:06.339
Yeah.
440
00:21:06.359 --> 00:21:12.279
I remember my pants. If I'm on the floor, don't
441
00:21:12.359 --> 00:21:15.059
ever count me out because I will stand up strong.
442
00:21:15.119 --> 00:21:17.880
It's what I'm all about. Because if you rock like me,
443
00:21:18.420 --> 00:21:21.029
you always stand your ground and you take the pain
444
00:21:21.049 --> 00:21:25.789
or then you're going down. There it is. Or that
445
00:21:25.809 --> 00:21:29.150
you're going down. This song sucks. Do you know the enemy?
446
00:21:29.869 --> 00:21:32.069
that one threw me up a fucking wall and I
447
00:21:32.089 --> 00:21:35.210
like Green Day but like that shit played so much.
448
00:21:34.869 --> 00:21:38.509
Dude like that's it's it's funny because that era is
449
00:21:38.549 --> 00:21:41.289
like I know I'm in for some taped garbage dude
450
00:21:41.349 --> 00:21:43.650
like I just know I'm in for the worst just
451
00:21:43.809 --> 00:21:45.690
uninspired show.
452
00:21:45.309 --> 00:21:48.670
Hair dryer bullshit like I know I'm watching Seamus versus
453
00:21:48.690 --> 00:21:52.539
Del Rio versus Big Show in some combination like fucking
454
00:21:52.599 --> 00:21:53.579
something's happening.
455
00:21:53.380 --> 00:21:56.680
At Christian's losing yeah like that was a big Randy
456
00:21:56.819 --> 00:21:59.640
Orton time too man yeah I wonder if anyone has
457
00:21:59.680 --> 00:22:02.420
that for this era. They hear If You Rock Like Me,
458
00:22:02.440 --> 00:22:04.200
and they're like, fuck, dude, no way.
459
00:22:07.000 --> 00:22:10.240
Maybe that's their thorn in your eye. They were like, wow,
460
00:22:10.480 --> 00:22:12.500
fucking If You Rock Like Me meant a lot to me.
461
00:22:13.140 --> 00:22:18.680
So Jim Ross and Taz, crazy commentary team here, Jim
462
00:22:18.779 --> 00:22:19.819
Ross and Taz.
463
00:22:20.119 --> 00:22:25.039
That's a dream. If you're thinking of what could the most...
464
00:22:25.309 --> 00:22:28.279
like annoyed two guys together doing commentary i would have
465
00:22:28.299 --> 00:22:30.920
put jr and taz in 2008 tna i.
466
00:22:30.880 --> 00:22:33.319
Mean they probably lasted about an hour before they started
467
00:22:33.359 --> 00:22:35.279
arguing with each other so that was.
468
00:22:35.039 --> 00:22:38.619
Good taz taz is trying to lob stuff up and
469
00:22:38.640 --> 00:22:40.799
jr is just not having it i don't give a
470
00:22:40.900 --> 00:22:42.279
fuck it's like.
471
00:22:42.559 --> 00:22:44.539
It's like one of the santino match where it's just
472
00:22:44.579 --> 00:22:46.839
like taz is trying to make a joke and jr's
473
00:22:46.859 --> 00:22:49.140
like i have no clue what you're talking about shut
474
00:22:49.400 --> 00:22:54.359
up please watch the shantino.
475
00:22:53.920 --> 00:22:58.549
Gramps Can someone take this shit serious? Like, you're fucking
476
00:22:58.569 --> 00:23:06.390
pissing me off, Taz. WrestleMania. Would you please take it serious, Taz? WrestleMania.
477
00:23:08.630 --> 00:23:10.940
He's talking about the honkity-tonkity man, Taz. Like, what the
478
00:23:10.980 --> 00:23:14.779
fuck are you not listening for? Oh, son of a gun. Taz,
479
00:23:14.839 --> 00:23:21.539
could you take this serious? Okay, dude. I'm freaking taking
480
00:23:21.579 --> 00:23:27.420
it serious, dude. I am watching it. Watch it. I'm
481
00:23:27.460 --> 00:23:32.359
calling the fucking match. Maybe jump over there, JR. Bust
482
00:23:32.380 --> 00:23:36.940
you up. You don't want this, son. You do not
483
00:23:36.980 --> 00:23:37.279
want this.
484
00:23:39.720 --> 00:23:42.240
Yeah, so Jim Ross and Taz, man, they welcome us
485
00:23:42.299 --> 00:23:45.369
into Green Bay, Wisconsin. Takes them a minute for them
486
00:23:45.380 --> 00:23:46.569
to tell us where we're at. I thought we were
487
00:23:46.589 --> 00:23:47.470
just going to skip over it.
488
00:23:47.670 --> 00:23:49.789
Dude, yeah, I mean, they probably were worried about the
489
00:23:49.869 --> 00:23:52.640
riot because Ken Kennedy wasn't here in Green Bay. They
490
00:23:52.660 --> 00:23:53.490
just didn't want to mention it.
491
00:23:53.720 --> 00:23:55.579
Was he wrestling here in WWE at this point?
492
00:23:55.960 --> 00:24:00.039
Oh, he might have been suspended when everyone got suspended. Oh, PEDs. Yeah,
493
00:24:00.079 --> 00:24:02.779
that might be right. Something like that. They got Edge, too.
494
00:24:03.220 --> 00:24:05.390
They got a lot of fucking people, dude. They got
495
00:24:05.430 --> 00:24:07.609
a lot of people. Kendrick just got a push because
496
00:24:07.650 --> 00:24:10.630
of what it looks like. Yeah, Green Bay, Wisconsin, for
497
00:24:10.650 --> 00:24:15.890
this all-star kickoff. Over 50 superstars here on this show.
498
00:24:16.500 --> 00:24:19.519
And they just show, like, a graphic of just all
499
00:24:19.559 --> 00:24:22.069
the stars are here. Like, Kozlov.
500
00:24:22.440 --> 00:24:25.150
Dude, yeah, Vladimir Kozlov was on this list here. They
501
00:24:25.190 --> 00:24:26.630
had Ted DiBiase Jr.
502
00:24:26.650 --> 00:24:30.450
Dude, they show Santino with photoshopped Intercontinental title from, like,
503
00:24:30.549 --> 00:24:31.950
when he first won the belt.
504
00:24:32.250 --> 00:24:35.509
Yeah, so, dude, I think, like, he just debuted the
505
00:24:35.549 --> 00:24:38.789
singlet here. Or, like, he just debuted it, like, on Raw.
506
00:24:39.069 --> 00:24:41.589
Yeah, okay. Sure, that makes sense.
507
00:24:41.890 --> 00:24:44.029
Or it's the first time Jim Ross has ever looked
508
00:24:44.049 -->
00:24:48.950
at Santino before. Because he's the one that says it
509
00:24:48.990 --> 00:24:51.430
on the show. He says at some point on the show,
510
00:24:51.450 --> 00:24:53.170
he says like, yeah, I just saw this for the
511
00:24:53.210 --> 00:24:54.269
first time last week.
512
00:24:54.609 --> 00:24:58.019
Yeah, I like that shit. I mean, Santino's been on
513
00:24:58.099 --> 00:25:01.099
Raw since 2007. So like he's been here for a
514
00:25:01.140 --> 00:25:04.380
minute and they still are using like his first fucking
515
00:25:04.420 --> 00:25:05.599
week shot for this.
516
00:25:05.859 --> 00:25:07.660
He never showed up to take pictures, you know.
517
00:25:08.000 --> 00:25:12.279
That happens pretty often. More often than people would know, actually. Yeah,
518
00:25:12.319 --> 00:25:15.000
Ted DiBiase, great colleagues on this. I got excited for that.
519
00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:17.019
I was hoping he'd be on this. Yeah, me too.
520
00:25:17.079 --> 00:25:19.319
I was excited to see Great Khali Big Show. You know,
521
00:25:19.359 --> 00:25:21.349
he's got the single strap singlet.
522
00:25:21.650 --> 00:25:25.670
Sure, man. And which, you know, like you can I
523
00:25:25.710 --> 00:25:27.930
wonder if you can look at Big Show's like run
524
00:25:28.130 --> 00:25:30.990
and see like what if he was enjoying his time,
525
00:25:31.029 --> 00:25:33.750
depending on how the strap was. Yeah, right.
526
00:25:33.789 --> 00:25:35.880
Like how kept his beard is really.
527
00:25:35.900 --> 00:25:40.099
Holy shit in the hair. Absolutely. Now, I will say, James,
528
00:25:40.160 --> 00:25:42.920
and I'm sure you also felt the same way. I
529
00:25:42.980 --> 00:25:46.299
went into this knowing legit. I had no memories of
530
00:25:46.440 --> 00:25:49.049
what was going on in October of 2008 for WWE,
531
00:25:49.109 --> 00:25:51.809
especially SmackDown. I had no clue who the champions could
532
00:25:51.829 --> 00:25:54.089
have been or what the fuck was going on. And
533
00:25:54.109 --> 00:25:55.650
I feel like there was at least two to three
534
00:25:55.690 --> 00:25:58.289
things here that startled me as we watched this show.
535
00:25:58.970 --> 00:26:02.980
I knew for a fact that, that The Undertaker was, like,
536
00:26:03.000 --> 00:26:03.920
the top guy here.
537
00:26:04.200 --> 00:26:05.980
And he was coming back. Right.
538
00:26:06.039 --> 00:26:08.700
Like, I knew for a fact, like, that we were
539
00:26:08.720 --> 00:26:11.299
going to see Undertaker, and he's going to be stalking somebody.
540
00:26:11.339 --> 00:26:13.559
That's pretty much all he did whenever we watched this era, so.
541
00:26:13.839 --> 00:26:16.460
Yeah, he's hurt, of course, also. He's limping around, I believe,
542
00:26:16.500 --> 00:26:16.940
at this time.
543
00:26:17.259 --> 00:26:19.000
He's still showing up, though, you know, because his love
544
00:26:19.019 --> 00:26:19.740
for his business.
545
00:26:20.019 --> 00:26:21.740
And because a bunch of people just got popped, so,
546
00:26:21.759 --> 00:26:24.460
you know, yeah. You know, that'll get you, too. But,
547
00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:26.430
you know, it's also the love for his business. Well,
548
00:26:26.470 --> 00:26:29.349
of course! Sorry, of course. Especially his love for My
549
00:26:29.369 --> 00:26:29.789
Network TV!
550
00:26:30.549 --> 00:26:30.910
Right.
551
00:26:30.970 --> 00:26:32.849
I mean, how could he miss the debut? That's probably
552
00:26:32.869 --> 00:26:34.049
what his thought process was.
553
00:26:34.069 --> 00:26:36.349
Like, they need me. I want to be on Judge
554
00:26:36.369 --> 00:26:36.930
Joe Brown.
555
00:26:36.950 --> 00:26:38.490
No, you don't.
556
00:26:38.549 --> 00:26:40.650
Hey, I'll tell you right now. I'll take care of business.
557
00:26:42.730 --> 00:26:45.630
Of course, we also have an all-star kickoff main event tonight, James,
558
00:26:45.670 --> 00:26:48.380
for the first time ever on Network TV. Champion versus
559
00:26:48.500 --> 00:26:52.500
champion versus champion. All three champions from all three brands,
560
00:26:53.079 --> 00:26:55.559
which is, of course, Jericho is the SmackDown champion. Triple
561
00:26:55.579 --> 00:26:58.059
H is the Raw champion. And Matt Hardy is the
562
00:26:58.119 --> 00:27:01.119
ECW champion. Or no, maybe that's fucking wrong. Jericho's the
563
00:27:01.140 --> 00:27:03.880
Raw champion, isn't he? Yeah, that's right. Fuck, yeah, Triple
564
00:27:04.000 --> 00:27:05.660
H is SmackDown champion. Yeah, sorry, I'm just not used
565
00:27:05.700 --> 00:27:07.000
to that. Yeah, right.
566
00:27:07.039 --> 00:27:10.380
The World Heavyweight Championship's on Raw, right? That changes eventually.
567
00:27:10.640 --> 00:27:11.349
Changes a lot.
568
00:27:12.109 --> 00:27:13.740
So we start the night off here. We got the
569
00:27:13.900 --> 00:27:18.809
all-star eight-man tag here. It's Jeff Hardy, Rey Mysterio, Fit Finlay,
570
00:27:18.849 --> 00:27:23.269
and Batista. And they're taking on MVP JBL, The Brian Kendrick,
571
00:27:23.809 --> 00:27:24.549
and Kane.
572
00:27:24.970 --> 00:27:29.619
Oh my god, like... These entrances just felt never ending, dude. Yeah, man.
573
00:27:29.690 --> 00:27:32.099
All-star eight-man tag sounds crazy in WB.
574
00:27:32.119 --> 00:27:33.839
I got to be honest with you. It does, especially 2008.
575
00:27:33.819 --> 00:27:38.940
You guys do not have all-stars. No, they're cooking here.
576
00:27:39.599 --> 00:27:45.009
I mean, what? Jeff Hardy came out first. He's like
577
00:27:45.029 --> 00:27:47.009
the king of 2008 in my mind. Like, I feel
578
00:27:47.029 --> 00:27:48.210
like everybody loved Jeff Hardy 2008.
579
00:27:48.190 --> 00:27:51.490
Yeah, something that might be underlooked on this show. So
580
00:27:51.569 --> 00:27:53.990
earlier they were running down the people on the show.
581
00:27:54.009 --> 00:27:56.970
I mean, this is the order it went in. Triple H,
582
00:27:57.210 --> 00:28:02.049
WWE champion, Jeff Hardy, Batista. Jeff Hardy went before Batista.
583
00:28:02.069 --> 00:28:03.069
That's crazy. Yes.
584
00:28:03.450 --> 00:28:04.410
Yeah, super over.
585
00:28:04.920 --> 00:28:07.200
Super over. He's facing Triple H for the belt at
586
00:28:07.220 --> 00:28:09.539
the pay-per-view. So JR and Taz are on commentary, as
587
00:28:09.579 --> 00:28:11.599
we said, and Taz says, well, you know, Vickie Guerrero,
588
00:28:11.640 --> 00:28:14.220
the GM, she's not here tonight, so we have no
589
00:28:14.279 --> 00:28:18.670
idea who's running the show. What are you talking about?
590
00:28:18.970 --> 00:28:21.450
Why would this ever happen? That like gave me like
591
00:28:21.849 --> 00:28:24.410
end of WCW PTSD where they just said shit like that.
592
00:28:24.670 --> 00:28:25.990
The fuck are you talking about? You don't know who's
593
00:28:26.029 --> 00:28:28.299
running the show. You're on the show. You knew these
594
00:28:28.339 --> 00:28:29.799
matches are happening. Who booked them?
595
00:28:30.140 --> 00:28:31.559
Did Vicky get popped for PEDs?
596
00:28:33.299 --> 00:28:36.019
But why is she not here? She didn't want to work.
597
00:28:36.839 --> 00:28:40.299
Holy fuck. She doesn't fuck with my network TV. They
598
00:28:40.319 --> 00:28:41.660
had to write her off. She fucking hates this network.
599
00:28:41.680 --> 00:28:42.460
She took a stand, man.
600
00:28:42.480 --> 00:28:44.269
What you guys are doing to King Kennedy makes me
601
00:28:44.460 --> 00:28:44.890
fucking sick.
602
00:28:44.970 --> 00:28:49.539
What? She heard that Chavo was getting brutally beaten by
603
00:28:49.559 --> 00:28:51.940
the Undertaker every week, and she just had enough. Can't
604
00:28:51.960 --> 00:28:53.180
take it anymore. I had to stand up, you know?
605
00:28:53.200 --> 00:28:55.839
I'm just sick of this shit. Rey Mysterio is not
606
00:28:55.859 --> 00:28:57.960
doing the jump out from the floor anymore. We're in
607
00:28:58.000 --> 00:29:00.160
that era of Rey Mysterio. He's still over, though.
608
00:29:00.420 --> 00:29:02.079
Yeah, something I thought that was really cool with all
609
00:29:02.099 --> 00:29:04.660
these entrances for everybody here is, like, all the top
610
00:29:04.700 --> 00:29:06.759
guys got pyro. You know, that was still cool to see.
611
00:29:07.119 --> 00:29:10.180
Yeah, that is fucking awesome. I specifically love when Rey
612
00:29:10.200 --> 00:29:12.140
does the mask-to-mask thing with the fan, and he tells them,
613
00:29:12.180 --> 00:29:14.420
do something with your life, you little bitch.
614
00:29:14.960 --> 00:29:16.680
Yeah, he taught a couple of them, right?
615
00:29:19.970 --> 00:29:22.950
That's like, you know, that helps somebody grow. You know
616
00:29:22.970 --> 00:29:24.539
what I mean? You got to toughen up. Sometimes you
617
00:29:24.559 --> 00:29:26.140
just got to hear it. Sometimes you do.
618
00:29:26.359 --> 00:29:28.000
Sometimes you just got to hear it from Rey Mysterio.
619
00:29:29.539 --> 00:29:34.119
Face to face. Hornswoggle's music hits and I was like, wow,
620
00:29:34.160 --> 00:29:35.809
Hornswoggle's on this team.
621
00:29:38.279 --> 00:29:42.640
Oh yeah yeah fit philly and hornswoggle from ecw man
622
00:29:43.000 --> 00:29:44.660
they come out they start throwing shit to the crowd
623
00:29:44.700 --> 00:29:46.640
i swore that he threw that shillelagh in there i
624
00:29:46.660 --> 00:29:50.839
said oh my god he.
625
00:29:50.779 --> 00:29:52.299
Heads into somebody in the front row do something real
626
00:29:52.319 --> 00:29:57.380
life you little bitch that's what hornswoggle was telling everybody Yeah,
627
00:29:57.559 --> 00:30:00.940
JR says, the Belfast brawler Finley who loves to fight. Oh,
628
00:30:01.019 --> 00:30:07.369
and his four-foot, four-inch son, Hornswoggle. That's his son? Why,
629
00:30:07.390 --> 00:30:11.309
his son. Yeah, who'd he fuck for that? That couldn't
630
00:30:11.349 --> 00:30:13.829
just be his boy. Like, it had to be his son, man.
631
00:30:13.890 --> 00:30:15.180
Hell yeah.
632
00:30:15.319 --> 00:30:16.799
It had to be Vince's son, and then it had
633
00:30:16.819 --> 00:30:17.779
to be Finley's son.
634
00:30:17.799 --> 00:30:20.559
Of course. I'm surprised they never did an angle where
635
00:30:20.579 --> 00:30:22.119
they brought in Hornswoggle's mom.
636
00:30:22.440 --> 00:30:23.640
Yeah, I mean, I don't even know who it could
637
00:30:23.660 --> 00:30:23.940
have been.
638
00:30:24.000 --> 00:30:34.460
Linder McMahon? Hornswoggle is my son. First thing she says.
639
00:30:36.779 --> 00:30:44.150
Good evening, my son. Wow, that sounds awesome. Why didn't
640
00:30:44.170 --> 00:30:44.690
they do that?
641
00:30:45.829 --> 00:30:48.990
Just, you know, they're worried about acting and not so
642
00:30:49.049 --> 00:30:51.690
much about what they're doing with Hornswoggle.
643
00:30:51.759 --> 00:30:56.400
I think Linda got popped for PZs. I think Hornswoggle
644
00:30:56.440 --> 00:31:00.950
got popped. And they threw him out of a limousine.
645
00:31:01.230 --> 00:31:05.569
That sucks. Put him in a fucking pillowcase and threw
646
00:31:05.589 --> 00:31:07.970
him out of a limousine. That's fucked up that they
647
00:31:08.009 --> 00:31:09.940
did that. I'm telling you right now, they didn't do
648
00:31:09.980 --> 00:31:16.539
that to nobody else. Everyone else just got to go home. Yeah, man,
649
00:31:16.579 --> 00:31:22.069
that sucks. Poor guy. They tried to kill Swoggle. Swoggle McMahon.
650
00:31:27.849 --> 00:31:30.079
MVP comes out and Gregory Helms shows up in a
651
00:31:30.099 --> 00:31:31.559
little bubble. Yeah.
652
00:31:31.720 --> 00:31:32.319
Oh, my God.
653
00:31:32.359 --> 00:31:32.619
Yeah.
654
00:31:32.680 --> 00:31:34.779
Gregory Helms. I wrote down Shane Helms.
655
00:31:35.140 --> 00:31:37.920
No, no more Shane. Can't be Shane in WWE. There's
656
00:31:37.940 --> 00:31:45.210
other Shane's here. McMahon. Where? Well, it's
not here now,
657
00:31:45.349 --> 00:31:48.970
but like they were here. Kane's about to shock his balls.
658
00:31:53.039 --> 00:31:55.720
That's all they had until the 8, man. Dude, you're right.
659
00:31:55.799 --> 00:31:58.700
I know. Look, they had Jeff Hardy. Look, either Jeff
660
00:31:58.720 --> 00:32:01.829
Hardy's winning or Kane's shocking Shane's balls. Like, what else
661
00:32:01.849 --> 00:32:04.670
we got? Come on. Shane was fighting with Randy Orton
662
00:32:04.710 --> 00:32:07.910
and fucking shit. Oh, he had that. Oh, okay.
663
00:32:07.970 --> 00:32:08.289
All right.
664
00:32:08.329 --> 00:32:10.430
Where's Randy Orton? Orton's on Raw.
665
00:32:11.049 --> 00:32:11.369
Yeah.
666
00:32:11.769 --> 00:32:14.529
Gregory Helm shows up and he says, MVP, SmackDown's highest
667
00:32:14.569 --> 00:32:17.549
paid performer. Man, we got hosed on that deal. I
668
00:32:17.589 --> 00:32:21.650
want my money back. I'm just saying. Is that his
669
00:32:21.690 --> 00:32:24.660
new thing? I'm just saying. I think so, which gets
670
00:32:24.680 --> 00:32:27.019
super over. What's up with that? Yeah, why can't he
671
00:32:27.059 --> 00:32:28.859
just do that? Yeah, I don't know. That's crazy.
672
00:32:28.920 --> 00:32:31.660
MVP got the highest paid deal in SmackDown history.
673
00:32:31.880 --> 00:32:35.519
They're saying in WWE history. Oh, they said WWE history? Yeah,
674
00:32:35.579 --> 00:32:37.690
like he's SmackDown's highest paid performer, but he has the
675
00:32:37.789 --> 00:32:39.529
biggest contract in WWE history.
676
00:32:40.089 --> 00:32:42.150
Yeah, you know, MVP comes out here, too, man. He
677
00:32:42.190 --> 00:32:43.029
looks awesome.
678
00:32:43.390 --> 00:32:46.109
Dude, he does look great. His whole presentation is awesome. Like,
679
00:32:47.390 --> 00:32:49.750
I kind of can't believe he didn't get at least, like,
680
00:32:49.990 --> 00:32:51.630
a one-month world title run.
681
00:32:51.990 --> 00:32:55.440
Yeah, I love this MVP deal. Like, the inflatable with
682
00:32:55.480 --> 00:32:59.160
the pyro and all this shit. Like, yeah, you talk
683
00:32:59.180 --> 00:33:01.740
about your Ken Kennedy. Fuck that. MVP should have been
684
00:33:01.759 --> 00:33:02.539
the world champion.
685
00:33:02.619 --> 00:33:04.819
You know what I mean? Don't say that too loud
686
00:33:04.859 --> 00:33:07.900
here in Green Bay, Wisconsin, Sean. Damn. Damn.
687
00:33:08.269 --> 00:33:10.349
He gets popped right before they go to green bay
688
00:33:10.390 --> 00:33:12.049
wisconsin man that sucks.
689
00:33:12.250 --> 00:33:14.710
That's fucking don't worry he'll be back and then he'll
690
00:33:14.730 --> 00:33:15.390
be fired.
691
00:33:15.369 --> 00:33:17.470
Yeah they slowly take away all the shit from mvp
692
00:33:17.490 --> 00:33:21.849
though he stopped using the inflatable he stopped using the pyro.
693
00:33:21.589 --> 00:33:24.420
Once uh once they've stopped thinking that they could strap
694
00:33:24.460 --> 00:33:26.400
the rocket to you just kind of become a dude
695
00:33:26.420 --> 00:33:28.160
on the show you lose all your shit and you
696
00:33:28.200 --> 00:33:29.700
come in and do your job that's it.
697
00:33:29.920 --> 00:33:33.390
Yeah man that fucking sucks like there's probably like an
698
00:33:33.430 --> 00:33:36.789
entire fucking generation of people that, that watch this shit.
699
00:33:37.109 --> 00:33:38.869
And they don't even really ever see pyro.
700
00:33:39.289 --> 00:33:39.970
Oh my God.
701
00:33:40.029 --> 00:33:40.250
Yeah.
702
00:33:40.289 --> 00:33:42.670
They get the fake right back sound pyro.
703
00:33:43.890 --> 00:33:46.170
They might get some like a mania or something, but
704
00:33:46.190 --> 00:33:48.690
like week to week, like MVP comes out here. He
705
00:33:48.730 --> 00:33:51.670
gets the inflatable entrance and the pyro on like a SmackDown.
706
00:33:51.799 --> 00:33:52.740
Like that's nuts, man.
707
00:33:53.019 --> 00:33:56.079
Look how many dudes in this injustice match got pyro. Yeah.
708
00:33:56.099 --> 00:33:57.660
It made them look huge. Made them look like stars.
709
00:33:57.700 --> 00:33:58.440
I like that, man.
710
00:33:58.640 --> 00:33:58.900
Yeah.
711
00:33:58.920 --> 00:34:00.160
Yeah. Yeah. For sure. Yeah.
712
00:34:00.180 --> 00:34:04.529
But yeah, MVP, man, the, right here, right now, like,
713
00:34:04.569 --> 00:34:06.789
this guy should have been mega pushed.
714
00:34:07.170 --> 00:34:09.610
Yeah, I think so, too. I think so, too. I
715
00:34:09.630 --> 00:34:12.349
don't know why, like, because he's, you know, he's kind
716
00:34:12.389 --> 00:34:14.610
of stuck in the midcard forever. I don't know. I'm
717
00:34:14.670 --> 00:34:17.650
sure he gets, like, some world title matches. Like, I'm
718
00:34:17.670 --> 00:34:20.000
sure he, you know, Batista beats him a few times, but, like,
719
00:34:20.400 --> 00:34:23.039
I don't really remember any standout main event runs for him.
720
00:34:23.059 --> 00:34:25.260
I think the one that I even remember off the
721
00:34:25.280 --> 00:34:26.579
top of my head is the Matt Hardy.
722
00:34:26.340 --> 00:34:28.800
Feud he had. Yeah, the US title deal, right? Yeah,
723
00:34:28.820 --> 00:34:31.050
where they were tag champs and shit. Yeah, like, Other
724
00:34:31.070 --> 00:34:32.889
than that, like, I don't really remember him doing much
725
00:34:33.010 --> 00:34:35.070
on the high end. And that was obviously not a
726
00:34:35.090 --> 00:34:36.489
high end angle. It was a mid-card deal.
727
00:34:36.530 --> 00:34:38.570
Yeah, I mean, like, especially in an era where, like,
728
00:34:39.449 --> 00:34:41.929
no one gave a fuck anymore. Like, give this guy
729
00:34:41.949 --> 00:34:42.710
the fucking bell.
730
00:34:42.750 --> 00:34:45.010
Yeah, why not? Yeah, yeah, right.
731
00:34:45.510 --> 00:34:47.230
Well, JBL from Raw comes out here.
732
00:34:55.739 --> 00:34:57.650
His driver was really bald. I wrote that here. I
733
00:34:57.670 --> 00:35:02.030
don't know why he was bald though. There he is. Yeah, man.
734
00:35:02.090 --> 00:35:04.369
Like he came in, he did his entrance and they said,
735
00:35:04.449 --> 00:35:06.130
all right, anyways, Brian Kendrick.
736
00:35:06.389 --> 00:35:11.739
Dude, Kendrick comes out with the fucking jacket. Ezekiel Jackson's
737
00:35:11.760 --> 00:35:15.059
with him. He's dancing down the ring. Like this, I
738
00:35:15.099 --> 00:35:15.840
was digging this.
739
00:35:16.239 --> 00:35:20.559
Dude, Kendrick even getting this run is like a testament
740
00:35:20.599 --> 00:35:23.349
to his era. Like nowadays he would have had the
741
00:35:23.389 --> 00:35:25.559
tag thing with Paul London and It would have gone
742
00:35:25.599 --> 00:35:28.139
back to NXT. It would have gone to evolve and
743
00:35:28.159 --> 00:35:28.840
he would have been fired.
744
00:35:29.139 --> 00:35:32.420
That's fucking unbelievably true. Yeah.
745
00:35:32.460 --> 00:35:35.389
Like it's actually crazy that he got this run here. Um,
746
00:35:35.829 --> 00:35:37.949
and like, I think a ton of people probably remember
747
00:35:37.969 --> 00:35:38.630
this run, too.
748
00:35:38.969 --> 00:35:41.849
Yeah, no, I think so, too. I mean, like we
749
00:35:41.889 --> 00:35:43.369
talked about it before a few times on the show,
750
00:35:43.409 --> 00:35:46.030
but I will never forget the gif of Brian Kendrick
751
00:35:46.110 --> 00:35:48.530
WWE champion. Ah, the scramble. Yeah, sure.
752
00:35:48.590 --> 00:35:48.949
Yes.
753
00:35:49.050 --> 00:35:53.789
Yeah, right. Like, how the fuck was he in that match? Yeah, right.
754
00:35:53.849 --> 00:35:56.230
Like, yeah, I mean, I don't know what the fuck
755
00:35:56.250 --> 00:35:58.380
they pitched for this dude to, like, get this gimmick
756
00:35:58.389 --> 00:35:58.820
or whatever.
757
00:35:58.880 --> 00:36:01.559
But I made the most of it, man. Theme song
758
00:36:01.579 --> 00:36:03.360
was dope too. I like that. I'm the man with
759
00:36:03.420 --> 00:36:04.800
a plan. Yeah.
760
00:36:04.860 --> 00:36:05.570
Yeah, right.
761
00:36:05.699 --> 00:36:07.510
I think he brings that back when he does the
762
00:36:07.570 --> 00:36:09.250
Cruiserweight Classic run.
763
00:36:09.090 --> 00:36:11.949
Or at least a version of it. I forgot about that. Yes.
764
00:36:12.630 --> 00:36:15.320
Well, Kane from Raw is here and two weeks ago,
765
00:36:15.679 --> 00:36:18.019
he big booted Rey Mysterio out of midair and then
766
00:36:18.099 --> 00:36:19.360
chokeslammed the fuck out of him.
767
00:36:19.659 --> 00:36:21.679
Dude, they were like, JR was like, wow, you see
768
00:36:21.719 --> 00:36:25.840
this shit? Check this shit out. Two weeks ago, Ray
769
00:36:25.860 --> 00:36:28.300
was going for like a springback and Kane boots him
770
00:36:28.340 --> 00:36:30.849
out of the sky and then deadlift choke slams him.
771
00:36:31.179 --> 00:36:32.480
And then he tells him he's a coward because he
772
00:36:32.519 --> 00:36:34.579
hides behind a mask, which I thought was very funny.
773
00:36:34.739 --> 00:36:37.639
Good gimmick. Yeah, I like that. And that's like, because
774
00:36:37.659 --> 00:36:39.460
they're having a match at No Mercy and if Ray loses,
775
00:36:39.500 --> 00:36:44.019
he takes the mask off, which, wow, we've never seen that. No, right? Yeah,
776
00:36:44.059 --> 00:36:47.340
that's never been done. No, especially not in 2K. No,
777
00:36:47.480 --> 00:36:50.980
absolutely fucking not. Don't you even think about it. You
778
00:36:51.000 --> 00:36:52.780
put that fucking mask on and then overalls.
779
00:36:53.400 --> 00:36:55.559
Yeah, it cuts back from this pre-tape and it shows
780
00:36:55.619 --> 00:36:56.840
Kane's shitty little smile.
781
00:36:56.880 --> 00:36:59.360
I thought that was funny. He's a, I mean, he
782
00:36:59.400 --> 00:37:02.159
is a shitty smile bastard. This guy is. He always
783
00:37:02.199 --> 00:37:04.260
has been. So we start things off here.
784
00:37:04.320 --> 00:37:06.929
Fit Finley and Brian Kendrick are the ones that kick
785
00:37:06.949 --> 00:37:09.769
this one off. Kendrick tries to do some holds here.
786
00:37:09.829 --> 00:37:12.639
Finley is just I mean, his style was so smash mouth.
787
00:37:12.679 --> 00:37:15.400
I mean, he just elbows this dude. Atomic drops this dude.
788
00:37:15.440 --> 00:37:16.980
He's just beating the fuck out of this guy.
789
00:37:17.340 --> 00:37:21.000
Dude, I love I love watching Finley all the time, man. Like, yeah,
790
00:37:21.219 --> 00:37:23.500
he he's so snug. Like, you know, guys like him
791
00:37:23.539 --> 00:37:26.429
and Regal and fucking Benoit. Like those guys were always
792
00:37:26.769 --> 00:37:30.409
throwing with intent. Like, I love watching. And like, you know,
793
00:37:30.429 --> 00:37:32.329
you can see it here. Like Finley, you know, he
794
00:37:32.510 --> 00:37:33.889
probably could have taken it easy in this match. This
795
00:37:33.949 --> 00:37:36.369
is a fucking house show main event eight way. He's
796
00:37:36.409 --> 00:37:39.139
beating the fuck out of Ryan Kendrick. Yeah, he always did.
797
00:37:39.179 --> 00:37:40.920
He just loves to fight, man. You know, that's what
798
00:37:40.940 --> 00:37:44.710
his thing is. Oh, fuck. So it is. What the fuck?
799
00:37:44.869 --> 00:37:47.809
I was about to say, like, guys like Dave England
800
00:37:47.869 --> 00:37:51.949
got a run here. Dave England. Dave Taylor. Dave England
801
00:37:52.010 --> 00:37:55.329
was on this show, to be fair. Like, technically, that's
802
00:37:55.369 --> 00:37:58.800
what he was. Holy shit, man. Yeah, wow.
803
00:37:59.119 --> 00:38:01.199
Yeah, I wish Dave England was as shit as pants.
804
00:38:01.320 --> 00:38:05.480
Dave England with that shit-ass style. Shit in his drawers.
805
00:38:05.500 --> 00:38:09.420
I don't know. On my network TV. What a way
806
00:38:09.440 --> 00:38:12.460
to kick things off here. Dave England shits
his pants.
807
00:38:13.559 --> 00:38:19.639
Finley's boy, Dave England shits his pants again. That's Finley's
808
00:38:19.719 --> 00:38:22.239
other son, Dave England. I think that dude just shit
809
00:38:22.260 --> 00:38:28.969
his pants. There's also like a loud ass air conditioner
810
00:38:29.010 --> 00:38:31.309
going off during this whole show. Damn, man.
811
00:38:31.329 --> 00:38:32.789
I mean, we had that once on a show.
812
00:38:32.809 --> 00:38:35.150
You remember that? Dude, yeah. What the fuck was that?
813
00:38:35.190 --> 00:38:35.949
Was that the armory?
814
00:38:36.380 --> 00:38:39.400
Yeah, so one time at the armory, the AC was
815
00:38:39.480 --> 00:38:42.059
on crazy, and then the next time, the shit was
816
00:38:42.099 --> 00:38:43.820
just broken, so it was super hot.
817
00:38:44.159 --> 00:38:46.949
Yeah, dude, it was, I mean, the air conditioning situation
818
00:38:46.969 --> 00:38:49.210
in that building was always a goddamn gamble. You never
819
00:38:49.230 --> 00:38:50.789
knew what we were walking into. Like, I could ask
820
00:38:50.809 --> 00:38:52.449
them the night before, and they'd say, ah, fuck, I
821
00:38:52.449 --> 00:38:54.909
don't know. I don't know, yeah, all right, cool. It's
822
00:38:55.050 --> 00:38:59.590
only 115 degrees in here. That's cool, though. Dude, I mean,
823
00:38:59.610 --> 00:39:01.840
they were on an absolute train on Brian Kendrick here. Like,
824
00:39:01.880 --> 00:39:03.840
this is so fucking funny. This is like the opposite
825
00:39:03.860 --> 00:39:05.460
of how a tag usually starts.
826
00:39:05.860 --> 00:39:07.760
I mean, they beat his ass all the way through
827
00:39:07.800 --> 00:39:09.079
multiple commercials, man.
828
00:39:09.360 --> 00:39:12.650
Like, the babyfaces having the heat for the entire first
829
00:39:12.670 --> 00:39:14.650
half of this match and just putting the boots to
830
00:39:14.670 --> 00:39:17.989
Brian Kendrick is so goddamn funny. I mean, he gets destroyed.
831
00:39:18.570 --> 00:39:19.570
So Batista comes in.
832
00:39:19.610 --> 00:39:22.500
He hits a vertical suplex for a two here. Finley
833
00:39:22.539 --> 00:39:25.280
comes in, he hits a European uppercut on Kendrick, knocks
834
00:39:25.340 --> 00:39:26.380
him the fuck.
835
00:39:26.260 --> 00:39:29.429
Out, man. That made such a crazy sound. He blitzed
836
00:39:29.469 --> 00:39:31.619
him with that. and then he goes outside to hit
837
00:39:31.659 --> 00:39:33.340
the classic apron spot.
838
00:39:33.280 --> 00:39:35.920
Dude he just starts beating him down like his style
839
00:39:35.980 --> 00:39:39.440
he's just an old bastard man like this guy just
840
00:39:39.480 --> 00:39:41.380
an old bastard.
841
00:39:41.280 --> 00:39:43.260
I love it I love it man I mean and
842
00:39:43.300 --> 00:39:45.320
Kendrick has taken every bit of it dude.
843
00:39:45.590 --> 00:39:48.230
So Finley traps Kendrick in the apron here and beats
844
00:39:48.269 --> 00:39:51.730
his ass. Hornswoggle then gets on the apron and jumps
845
00:39:51.809 --> 00:39:57.050
on MVP. That's his son, by the way.
846
00:39:57.489 --> 00:39:59.809
My name is Finley, and he came out of my balls.
847
00:40:03.250 --> 00:40:05.269
At first, he's like a mythical leprechaun, so I don't
848
00:40:05.329 --> 00:40:08.090
even know if he was supposed to have a dad. Yeah,
849
00:40:08.159 --> 00:40:08.610
you're right.
850
00:40:08.659 --> 00:40:10.699
Yeah, it was some deal like that, right? Well, I mean,
851
00:40:10.920 --> 00:40:12.960
what was the original deal? He was Vince McMahon's son.
852
00:40:13.460 --> 00:40:14.179
Yeah, right.
853
00:40:14.519 --> 00:40:14.739
And then.
854
00:40:15.019 --> 00:40:17.860
From who? He wasn't. From what? He had a fling
855
00:40:17.909 --> 00:40:18.409
on the road.
856
00:40:18.429 --> 00:40:19.739
In.
857
00:40:20.849 --> 00:40:27.289
Ireland? Don't you even be running there? It was the
858
00:40:27.389 --> 00:40:29.650
one time of year. There we go.
859
00:40:29.690 --> 00:40:29.989
Okay.
860
00:40:30.449 --> 00:40:34.250
That's... Whatever. Vince just believed it all. Fuck, that's my son.
861
00:40:34.349 --> 00:40:36.670
When the fuck was that? 20 years ago? Like, this
862
00:40:36.750 --> 00:40:39.989
is a grown man. That was... That was three weeks ago. Fuck.
863
00:40:41.070 --> 00:40:42.300
He just happened to be in WWE.
864
00:40:42.340 --> 00:40:46.099
Like, this is crazy. Like, okay. Yeah, the circumstances are unbelievable.
865
00:40:46.639 --> 00:40:47.900
So he didn't show up at TNA, he showed up
866
00:40:47.920 --> 00:40:50.230
at WWE. You know, well, he knew where his dad was.
867
00:40:51.170 --> 00:40:51.670
He showed up at.
868
00:40:51.670 --> 00:40:58.159
TNA and they said, next door, jackass. Yeah. Yeah, so
869
00:40:58.179 --> 00:40:59.690
we go to commercial here. We come back.
870
00:40:59.949 --> 00:41:03.329
Brian Kendrick still getting his ass whooped. Oh, my God. No,
871
00:41:03.510 --> 00:41:05.550
we don't come back to Kendrick Heat. We come back
872
00:41:05.590 --> 00:41:08.530
to Kendrick getting kicked in his fucking head by Rey Mysterio.
873
00:41:08.869 --> 00:41:11.230
Yeah, Jeff Hardy comes in. He hits a dropkick. I mean,
874
00:41:11.250 --> 00:41:12.670
they're still beating this dude up here.
875
00:41:12.989 --> 00:41:16.010
Yes, man. I mean, Jeff is so fucking over, and
876
00:41:16.050 --> 00:41:17.989
he's just doing whatever he wants to Kendrick. Kendrick is
877
00:41:18.030 --> 00:41:20.710
trying to fight back, but, like, it's getting cut off.
878
00:41:21.190 --> 00:41:25.250
Finley comes in. He runs into a Kendrick dropkick, and Kendrick,
879
00:41:25.869 --> 00:41:27.469
You got to give one back, man. He kicks the
880
00:41:27.530 --> 00:41:28.690
shit out of Finley here.
881
00:41:29.030 --> 00:41:30.030
Dude, he gives him a good one. I don't know
882
00:41:30.050 --> 00:41:31.900
if it was in his head or shoulder, but he
883
00:41:31.920 -->
00:41:34.179
kind of lights him up there. And then behind him,
884
00:41:34.260 --> 00:41:37.980
Hornswoggle is in Kendrick's jacket dancing. Dude, yeah.
885
00:41:38.039 --> 00:41:40.960
Kendrick does his little dance after he finally gets up here.
886
00:41:41.400 --> 00:41:43.639
And then the shot is awesome. It's like this hard
887
00:41:43.690 --> 00:41:46.510
cam shot. And then on the apron behind him, Hornswoggle
888
00:41:46.550 --> 00:41:48.369
walks up with the jacket on and starts doing his
889
00:41:48.389 --> 00:41:49.670
little dance on the apron too.
890
00:41:50.289 --> 00:41:52.829
What is that? Fucking Finley's son or something? Yeah, what
891
00:41:52.889 --> 00:41:59.510
is that? Vince's son over there? Who is this? Tash,
892
00:41:59.550 --> 00:42:01.139
would you fucking take this a little serious?
893
00:42:02.920 --> 00:42:05.119
So yeah, Kendrick chases him, man. He chases him to
894
00:42:05.159 --> 00:42:08.059
the outside. Finley, I mean, this was crazy.
895
00:42:08.500 --> 00:42:12.360
Hornswoggle runs and Finley jumps over him and then lands
896
00:42:12.780 --> 00:42:16.300
and then lines Kendrick. Yes, and then Ezekiel Jackson has
897
00:42:16.340 --> 00:42:18.840
to give him a one-four. He fucking blitzes Finley with
898
00:42:18.860 --> 00:42:19.840
a clothesline on the floor.
899
00:42:20.119 --> 00:42:21.260
Hell yeah, that's Big Rick.
900
00:42:21.679 --> 00:42:24.500
I love that motherfucker, man. I've always been an Ezekiel
901
00:42:24.519 --> 00:42:26.639
Jackson fan. I think he's awesome. Big bastard.
902
00:42:26.840 --> 00:42:28.900
Fucking fantastic theme song, too.
903
00:42:28.940 --> 00:42:31.599
By the way. Dude, holy shit. And he always looked
904
00:42:31.800 --> 00:42:34.840
absolutely insane. I mean, this dude is massive. And he
905
00:42:34.880 --> 00:42:42.030
was in the core. What's that? Yeah. That's right.
906
00:42:42.619 --> 00:42:45.900
So JBL tags in. Time for some fucking heat. Finally,
907
00:42:45.940 --> 00:42:49.139
someone gets booed in this match, man. Like, he comes in.
908
00:42:49.159 --> 00:42:51.420
I mean, he gets massive boos.
909
00:42:51.739 --> 00:42:58.199
Well, this is also a taped SmackDown. Nah, nah, nah. Yeah,
910
00:42:58.239 --> 00:43:02.590
that was real. Okay, sorry. I apologize. So JBL comes
911
00:43:02.690 --> 00:43:05.550
in to, I mean, nuclear boos from the hottest crowd
912
00:43:05.610 --> 00:43:09.349
in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Yeah, this happened September 30th. Oh, yeah.
913
00:43:13.760 --> 00:43:16.119
So JBL comes in, he drops elbows on Finley.
914
00:43:16.159 --> 00:43:16.860
He gets a two.
915
00:43:17.380 --> 00:43:19.340
Kane comes in and does the shittiest shit he can
916
00:43:19.380 --> 00:43:19.860
think of.
917
00:43:20.199 --> 00:43:22.340
Okay, dude, you want a night off? Like just fucking
918
00:43:22.360 --> 00:43:24.940
stay home. The fuck is this guy doing? He hits
919
00:43:24.980 --> 00:43:27.579
the ropes and hits a good old stomp to the face.
920
00:43:27.920 --> 00:43:31.139
Fuck this fucking guy, man. Are you kidding me? He
921
00:43:31.179 --> 00:43:33.380
watched all the other team do all the sweet stuff.
922
00:43:33.420 --> 00:43:35.059
He couldn't do one thing to get some heat. Like
923
00:43:35.079 --> 00:43:37.739
you got the Kane uppercut and shit. Like make something
924
00:43:37.760 --> 00:43:38.039
happen here.
925
00:43:38.420 --> 00:43:41.760
Hornswoggle, he should have walked over there and kicked his ass.
926
00:43:43.059 --> 00:43:45.119
He should have grabbed Kane by the balls. Dude, he
927
00:43:45.139 --> 00:43:47.340
should have gotten an apron and beat Kane's balls like
928
00:43:47.400 --> 00:43:49.940
Beetlejuice did to Jeff Jarrett. Oh my god, he had
929
00:43:50.019 --> 00:43:52.960
to just go in there from behind too. Just fucking
930
00:43:53.000 --> 00:43:54.179
annihilate his sack.
931
00:43:54.519 --> 00:43:56.559
He should have done that Gohan shit. That's what his
932
00:43:56.619 --> 00:43:58.480
finish should have been, was him doing a big ass
933
00:43:58.500 --> 00:43:59.599
headbutt like Gohan.
934
00:44:00.360 --> 00:44:04.849
That's Kozlov's finish. Oh, right. I guess we'll see him
935
00:44:04.909 --> 00:44:06.769
at some point tonight. He's a tough guy, you son
936
00:44:06.809 --> 00:44:07.289
of a bitch.
937
00:44:07.730 --> 00:44:09.010
That's right, he's undefeated.
938
00:44:11.090 --> 00:44:12.980
He does. He does have mega heat.
939
00:44:13.000 --> 00:44:16.090
They boot him crazy. Not as much as JBL, but...
940
00:44:18.469 --> 00:44:21.010
So JBL hits a clothesline on Finley for a two here.
941
00:44:21.489 --> 00:44:23.760
Finley hits a DDT for a double down. He tags
942
00:44:23.800 --> 00:44:26.619
out to Batista. Kane tries to chokeslam Batista, but he
943
00:44:26.659 --> 00:44:28.320
gets a spine buster for his troubles.
944
00:44:28.599 --> 00:44:29.099
That looked good.
945
00:44:29.360 --> 00:44:31.400
MVP comes in. He gets spine buster too.
946
00:44:32.360 --> 00:44:33.219
Oh, shit.
947
00:44:33.300 --> 00:44:35.980
Batista hits a powerslam on MVP here. Rey Mysterio gets
948
00:44:36.039 --> 00:44:37.840
up on his shoulders and they do a splash off
949
00:44:37.889 --> 00:44:38.710
of Batista's shoulders.
950
00:44:38.730 --> 00:44:40.730
I thought that was cool. Fuck, I love that.
951
00:44:41.130 --> 00:44:44.230
Rey goes for the 619, but MVP stops him. Rey
952
00:44:44.269 --> 00:44:47.139
then ranas him into the ropes alongside of Kendrick. So
953
00:44:47.159 --> 00:44:50.619
we're going to do a double 619, but fucking Kane
954
00:44:50.659 --> 00:44:51.519
pulls his leg.
955
00:44:51.820 --> 00:44:55.719
God damn it, Kane. You ruined everything, you fuck. They
956
00:44:55.739 --> 00:44:57.710
should have did a spot, by the way, where Batista
957
00:44:57.730 --> 00:45:00.829
stood on Rey's shoulders for a move. Holy fuck. I mean,
958
00:45:00.849 --> 00:45:03.809
that would have been absolutely
nuts. I bet Rey's got
959
00:45:03.829 --> 00:45:05.269
it in him. He can hold him up. He's big enough.
960
00:45:06.500 --> 00:45:08.429
We go to commercial and come back and Kane has
961
00:45:08.469 --> 00:45:09.110
a chin lock.
962
00:45:09.320 --> 00:45:12.030
Like, what the fuck is this guy? What am I
963
00:45:12.050 --> 00:45:15.269
supposed to think of this guy? Is he Satan or not?
964
00:45:15.570 --> 00:45:19.409
Chin lock. Taz says Ray in the back told me that's,
965
00:45:19.449 --> 00:45:22.789
you know, unmasking a luchador is sacrilegious on, you know,
966
00:45:22.829 --> 00:45:26.690
it's certainly embarrassing. All right. Shit. Like, why is it embarrassing? Like,
967
00:45:27.050 --> 00:45:28.489
just because he takes the mask off. He's a good
968
00:45:28.510 --> 00:45:29.719
looking guy. Yeah.
969
00:45:29.800 --> 00:45:31.139
No, I mean, he was a heartthrob when he took
970
00:45:31.179 --> 00:45:33.800
the mask off in WCW. But yeah, I mean, I
971
00:45:33.820 --> 00:45:34.400
get the idea.
972
00:45:34.940 --> 00:45:37.519
Underrated deal there ray mysterio on mask i think uh
973
00:45:37.960 --> 00:45:39.079
i think he could have did.
974
00:45:39.000 --> 00:45:41.929
More so jbl comes in he does a fall away
975
00:45:41.969 --> 00:45:44.690
slam on ray mysterio while looking at batista.
976
00:45:44.489 --> 00:45:46.750
That's a great fucking deal jbl.
977
00:45:46.429 --> 00:45:48.929
Tags the mvp but the ref didn't see it so
978
00:45:48.949 --> 00:45:49.309
they have to.
979
00:45:49.269 --> 00:45:52.090
Do it again like i think that was a shoot
980
00:45:52.429 --> 00:45:52.769
yeah he.
981
00:45:52.750 --> 00:45:54.469
Tags mvp and the ref looks at him he says
982
00:45:54.510 --> 00:45:55.949
two more minutes i don't know why he said that.
983
00:45:59.699 --> 00:46:02.940
MVP tagged in again and he said, you see it now, huh? Damn.
984
00:46:03.340 --> 00:46:07.320
And then he hits a fucked up splash forearm on Rey. Yeah,
985
00:46:07.360 --> 00:46:09.210
just fucking coming up with something on the fly there.
986
00:46:09.510 --> 00:46:11.349
Kendrick was getting the deal, too. He tagged in and
987
00:46:11.389 --> 00:46:15.730
did a top rope single stomp to Rey, maybe. On
988
00:46:15.769 --> 00:46:18.190
the head, yeah. Yeah, like, okay, we just gotta give
989
00:46:18.210 --> 00:46:19.329
it up at the end here, huh, guys?
990
00:46:19.610 --> 00:46:21.710
Hell nah, Rey Mysterio came in and did the destino.
991
00:46:24.949 --> 00:46:26.809
Like what the fuck was that holy shit yeah.
992
00:46:27.170 --> 00:46:28.769
Man he knocked him out with that shit too it
993
00:46:28.789 --> 00:46:32.380
looked good it looked fucking awesome Jeff Hardy MVP get
994
00:46:32.420 --> 00:46:35.420
the tags here Jeff hits his comeback um but he
995
00:46:35.440 --> 00:46:37.119
goes for the twist of fate and MVP stops the
996
00:46:37.159 --> 00:46:39.800
twist of fate he pushes Jeff into the corner but
997
00:46:39.920 --> 00:46:42.340
Jeff fires out with a whisper in the wind.
998
00:46:42.239 --> 00:46:44.940
Dude that was sick Jeff did the sling blade too
999
00:46:44.980 --> 00:46:47.440
by the way like a beta version of it it
1000
00:46:47.480 --> 00:46:48.500
was crazy.
1001
00:46:48.460 --> 00:46:52.099
JBL comes in and Batista spears him Uh, Kendrick then
1002
00:46:52.119 --> 00:46:54.159
hits Tracy Smothers' gimmick on Batista.
1003
00:46:56.769 --> 00:47:01.769
Standing house call. Yeah, the standing house call.
1004
00:47:01.809 --> 00:47:04.190
Philly comes in and just fucking clubs Kendrick in the head.
1005
00:47:04.309 --> 00:47:06.769
Dude, I thought he had the shillelagh. Like, he hits
1006
00:47:06.809 --> 00:47:09.610
him as if he had the shillelagh in his hands. Yeah,
1007
00:47:09.670 --> 00:47:11.710
Philly comes in, does his finisher where I just hit
1008
00:47:11.730 --> 00:47:14.269
you as hard as I can with my fist. I'm
1009
00:47:14.309 --> 00:47:17.489
buying it. Like, that's cool with me. Shit was nuts.
1010
00:47:17.929 --> 00:47:20.050
I mean, he just clubbed the fuck out of this dude, man.
1011
00:47:20.070 --> 00:47:21.780
I seriously thought he had a weapon in his hand.
1012
00:47:21.800 --> 00:47:22.880
That's how crazy it looked.
1013
00:47:23.360 --> 00:47:27.139
MVP's on the ropes. Ray hits the 619. Ray runs
1014
00:47:27.179 --> 00:47:29.679
off the apron, hits the whoopee cushion on Kane. Back
1015
00:47:29.719 --> 00:47:31.989
in the ring, Jeff Hardy hits the Swanton Bomb on
1016
00:47:32.139 --> 00:47:33.889
MVP and picks up the win.
1017
00:47:33.909 --> 00:47:36.289
I mean, this match was fine. Like, it was, you know,
1018
00:47:36.369 --> 00:47:40.789
kind of a introduce everybody's shit deal to a new network. Like,
1019
00:47:40.809 --> 00:47:41.849
that's what this felt like. It felt like a house
1020
00:47:41.869 --> 00:47:42.210
show main.
1021
00:47:42.730 --> 00:47:44.349
So for one week and one week only, I'm going
1022
00:47:44.369 --> 00:47:46.139
to give a thumbs up, thumbs middle, or a thumbs
1023
00:47:46.159 --> 00:47:47.579
down on every match on this show.
1024
00:47:47.699 --> 00:47:51.280
Whoa! This one gets a thumbs up. Good match. I
1025
00:47:51.300 --> 00:47:54.880
enjoyed it. Oh, my God. Wow. We should keep track
1026
00:47:54.920 --> 00:47:57.780
of these going forward. Well, you better hurry up, because
1027
00:47:57.820 --> 00:47:59.400
I'm only going to do it for this show. I'm
1028
00:48:00.059 --> 00:48:01.679
going to forget by the end of the show, too.
1029
00:48:02.079 --> 00:48:07.099
I'll probably forget by the third match. Wow, thumbs up.
1030
00:48:07.139 --> 00:48:09.739
All right, I like that. I like that. Fun match.
1031
00:48:09.800 --> 00:48:11.480
Jeff Hardy getting the win makes sense. He's getting the
1032
00:48:11.519 --> 00:48:13.889
fucking title match of the pay-per-view. Kendrick did a great
1033
00:48:13.929 --> 00:48:16.070
job just being a fucking complete stooge in
this match.
1034
00:48:16.530 --> 00:48:18.590
Jeff Hardy's the first one out on this show, and
1035
00:48:18.610 --> 00:48:20.050
he's the winner of the first match. I mean, they're
1036
00:48:20.070 --> 00:48:21.659
positioning him really hard here.
1037
00:48:22.239 --> 00:48:26.989
Yeah, that's true. That is true. I liked it. We
1038
00:48:27.010 --> 00:48:28.920
go to a pre-tape big show and undertaker.
1039
00:48:28.940 --> 00:48:30.559
We're going to kill Vicky Guerrero.
1040
00:48:30.940 --> 00:48:34.519
I'm telling you, dude, I'm not like exaggerating or anything.
1041
00:48:34.920 --> 00:48:39.239
I have zero, zero recollection of any of this angle
1042
00:48:39.679 --> 00:48:42.039
or anything that they showed me right here. Yeah.
1043
00:48:42.059 --> 00:48:44.869
I thought that was nuts. Like Vicky Guerrero says, please undertaker.
1044
00:48:44.889 --> 00:48:45.380
Don't kill me.
1045
00:48:47.579 --> 00:48:50.019
So Big Show says that him and Vicky came up
1046
00:48:50.039 --> 00:48:52.019
with a plan. I guess Big Show was a face
1047
00:48:52.039 --> 00:48:55.440
at the time here. And he had grabbed Vicky and
1048
00:48:55.460 --> 00:48:57.559
Undertaker has been trying to get at Vicky. And Vicky
1049
00:48:57.599 --> 00:49:00.519
says that Undertaker's threatened to take her soul. But he
1050
00:49:00.539 --> 00:49:02.780
didn't take anything. And Big Show hits him with that
1051
00:49:02.940 --> 00:49:07.579
big WMD punch, the KO. And Big Show says that
1052
00:49:07.599 --> 00:49:09.860
they're a true power couple. I don't remember them being
1053
00:49:09.909 --> 00:49:12.489
a couple either. He says, Vicky can help me get
1054
00:49:12.510 --> 00:49:16.289
where I want to be. What, like TNA? Like he fired.
1055
00:49:16.409 --> 00:49:20.550
Yeah where does he want to be does.
1056
00:49:19.099 --> 00:49:21.059
He want to be world champion like Undertaker doesn't have
1057
00:49:21.099 --> 00:49:21.800
that belt.
1058
00:49:21.780 --> 00:49:24.280
Yeah I don't yeah I mean like anytime I saw
1059
00:49:24.340 --> 00:49:27.360
someone with Vicky Guerrero like it was always them dating.
1060
00:49:27.119 --> 00:49:31.079
Her right yes every fucking time yeah edge fucking I
1061
00:49:31.099 --> 00:49:33.739
guess big show now Eric Escobar.
1062
00:49:33.179 --> 00:49:35.940
Who the fuck is Eric.
1063
00:49:35.719 --> 00:49:44.300
I know I know What? And show says he can
1064
00:49:44.320 --> 00:49:46.860
help Vicky get what she wants. And there's slow-mo shots
1065
00:49:46.920 --> 00:49:50.079
of Big Show knocking Undertaker out from every angle with
1066
00:49:50.139 --> 00:49:53.219
spooky music playing behind it. The classic WWE thing. I
1067
00:49:53.260 --> 00:49:54.639
love that. Yeah, yeah.
1068
00:49:54.659 --> 00:49:56.769
I mean, Vicky beats the show Undertaker too. Dude.
1069
00:49:57.820 --> 00:50:00.940
Sho says, slap him, baby. And Vicky slaps Taker, which
1070
00:50:00.980 --> 00:50:05.210
I'm guessing they're dating. And she spits in his fucking face, too. Yeah,
1071
00:50:05.230 --> 00:50:08.510
she took liberties on that. That was crazy. Well, Taker
1072
00:50:08.550 --> 00:50:13.730
gets his get back on the job. So Sho is
1073
00:50:13.750 --> 00:50:15.510
in his gear. We're still in the video here, by
1074
00:50:15.530 --> 00:50:16.690
the way. Sho is in his gear sitting on a
1075
00:50:16.710 --> 00:50:19.500
couch with Vicky. And Sho is, like, mockingly saying, oh,
1076
00:50:19.699 --> 00:50:21.320
you know, what are you going to do if Undertaker
1077
00:50:21.360 --> 00:50:24.150
shows up tonight? And Vicky says, if he shows up,
1078
00:50:24.159 --> 00:50:25.420
I'm going to make him get down on his knees
1079
00:50:25.800 --> 00:50:28.760
and apologize for everything he's done to me. Now this
1080
00:50:28.840 --> 00:50:33.000
is crazy, what I see here. This is fucking insane, buddy.
1081
00:50:33.820 --> 00:50:39.429
We get a POV shot of us kissing Vicky's feet. No,
1082
00:50:39.489 --> 00:50:45.559
it's not us, bro. like this is some weird shit
1083
00:50:45.639 --> 00:50:49.670
buddy like that wasn't i don't want to like i
1084
00:50:49.730 --> 00:50:52.269
felt like i was there james like they i was
1085
00:50:52.349 --> 00:50:54.789
staring her eyes she's telling me to apologize like this
1086
00:50:54.809 --> 00:50:58.090
shit was fucked up that was supposed to be undertaker's
1087
00:50:58.150 --> 00:51:02.809
pov oh why do i have that that's a.
1088
00:51:02.690 --> 00:51:05.900
Great fucking question i have no idea also undertaker was
1089
00:51:05.960 --> 00:51:10.039
only like five foot nine He was eye to eye
1090
00:51:10.059 --> 00:51:10.619
with Vicky?
1091
00:51:10.639 --> 00:51:16.010
What the fuck? And I swore it was Taker's voice too. Like,
1092
00:51:16.050 --> 00:51:19.909
this is a great impression. Taker is there, POV style,
1093
00:51:19.929 --> 00:51:21.610
looking at Vicky. He gets down on his knees, looking
1094
00:51:21.630 --> 00:51:25.840
at her feet. And he says, Vicky, I'm sorry. And
1095
00:51:25.860 --> 00:51:30.800
he kisses her fucking foot. Undertaker shows up backstage and
1096
00:51:30.860 --> 00:51:33.179
gets down on his knees and he looks at Vicky
1097
00:51:33.199 --> 00:51:34.039
Guerrero's feet.
1098
00:51:34.059 --> 00:51:35.519
Yeah.
1099
00:51:39.550 --> 00:51:42.210
Get me off this show. I hate my network TV.
1100
00:51:45.090 --> 00:51:47.730
But no, it was Chavo. Which doesn't make this any better.
1101
00:51:47.750 --> 00:51:48.969
Why was Chavo doing that?
1102
00:51:49.170 --> 00:51:54.769
Dude, is Chavo dressed up as Undertaker? And he does
1103
00:51:54.789 --> 00:52:03.639
Undertaker's famous phrase.
1104
00:52:03.960 --> 00:52:06.619
Like, you gotta go to Lucha Underground now, buddy. You
1105
00:52:06.659 --> 00:52:10.980
gotta go. A TNA run first, I guess. Dude, yeah.
1106
00:52:11.159 --> 00:52:14.639
All right, cool. So, like, fucking Sho says, you may
1107
00:52:14.679 -->
00:52:17.380
be above many things, but no one's above me. Talking
1108
00:52:17.400 --> 00:52:20.079
about Undertaker. And he says, I'll apologize, because if you're
1109
00:52:20.099 --> 00:52:24.940
not sorry now, I will personally make sure you will be. Gong. So,
1110
00:52:25.199 --> 00:52:27.579
Sho and Vicky are left in the ring. Then we
1111
00:52:27.599 --> 00:52:33.179
go backstage. Now it's POV us goozling Jaffa Gray.
1112
00:52:33.400 --> 00:52:33.699
No!
1113
00:52:33.739 --> 00:52:40.219
Like, we got him by the throat, man. No! and
1114
00:52:40.280 --> 00:52:46.039
we start kicking his ass i like what my nightmare
1115
00:52:46.059 --> 00:52:48.679
tv is bringing to the table here like they're putting
1116
00:52:48.699 --> 00:52:51.320
that fucking show in the hands of the people like
1117
00:52:51.360 --> 00:52:54.559
because if i was picking i'm kicking java's ass every
1118
00:52:54.619 --> 00:52:58.460
week as voted i'm texting eight six four nine five
1119
00:52:58.519 --> 00:52:59.519
bro like.
1120
00:53:05.969 --> 00:53:08.110
That's what my network TV should have done. That's what
1121
00:53:08.269 --> 00:53:12.010
WWE should have done. You know how TNA had suicide?
1122
00:53:12.530 --> 00:53:14.360
They have a wrestler where we see it through the
1123
00:53:14.469 --> 00:53:15.110
eyes of the wrestler.
1124
00:53:15.139 --> 00:53:16.679
That's us.
1125
00:53:16.719 --> 00:53:19.440
They do shots where you're facing somebody in the ring
1126
00:53:19.500 --> 00:53:19.920
and shit.
1127
00:53:19.940 --> 00:53:23.280
That's you. You do the moves, man. I would like that.
1128
00:53:23.300 --> 00:53:25.780
They never did that ever, huh?
1129
00:53:26.150 --> 00:53:29.469
The first ever POV wrestler self-insert deal.
1130
00:53:32.139 --> 00:53:34.449
And I go into Triple H's locker room and I see,
1131
00:53:34.780 --> 00:53:39.570
you know, what brand we're using this week. And I
1132
00:53:39.650 --> 00:53:42.530
also go backstage and beat the fuck out of Chava.
1133
00:53:45.010 --> 00:53:48.360
And here we are kissing Vicky's feet. Hey, maybe that's
1134
00:53:48.380 --> 00:53:49.179
your storyline, bro.
1135
00:53:49.199 --> 00:53:49.619
I don't know.
1136
00:53:49.639 --> 00:53:55.639
What the fuck? I mean, that's fucking awesome. Every single week,
1137
00:53:56.079 --> 00:53:58.780
we just kick Chava's ass POV style.
1138
00:53:59.920 --> 00:54:02.300
Yeah, you get to text what you want the POV
1139
00:54:02.320 --> 00:54:05.820
to do this week. Just an outstanding kick Chava Guerrero's
1140
00:54:06.000 --> 00:54:06.679
ass every week.
1141
00:54:07.380 --> 00:54:09.239
Put Chava's head in the toilet. Flush it.
1142
00:54:09.280 --> 00:54:12.099
Win the WWE title at WrestleMania or kick Chava's ass.
1143
00:54:13.219 --> 00:54:15.889
Cuts backstage, you're kicking Chava's ass.
1144
00:54:16.650 --> 00:54:17.469
This is exciting.
1145
00:54:18.710 --> 00:54:20.190
Sounds like stuff you would see on the main menu
1146
00:54:20.210 --> 00:54:22.559
of a DVD that came out in 2003.
1147
00:54:22.559 --> 00:54:25.659
Oh my God, and it replays every fucking 15 seconds. Yeah,
1148
00:54:25.699 --> 00:54:28.619
on loop. So Vicky sends Big Show to the back.
1149
00:54:28.900 --> 00:54:32.289
I mean, Undertaker is throwing Chavo all over this locker room, dude.
1150
00:54:32.309 --> 00:54:36.809
He's beeling him through every couch. Like he's fucking him up.
1151
00:54:37.150 --> 00:54:38.710
Yeah, this is a really good use of Chavo. I
1152
00:54:38.730 --> 00:54:40.769
think this is probably like, especially with the match that
1153
00:54:40.809 --> 00:54:44.000
we see later on, like best case scenarios for Chavo
1154
00:54:44.000 --> 00:54:44.960
2008 is exactly this.
1155
00:54:45.699 --> 00:54:49.059
If I had the pencil, I'd fucking Chavo just like this.
1156
00:54:49.559 --> 00:54:52.750
This is a good deal for him. So, Big Show
1157
00:54:52.789 --> 00:54:54.610
goes to the back, the lights go out again, and
1158
00:54:54.650 --> 00:54:57.769
now Undertaker's in the ring with Vicky. And they're playing
1159
00:54:57.800 --> 00:55:01.900
the spooky chanting music. Like that fucking.
1160
00:55:01.760 --> 00:55:02.380
Kind of shit.
1161
00:55:02.420 --> 00:55:04.610
Yeah, right. That was really good, actually. Oh, thank you.
1162
00:55:06.469 --> 00:55:09.090
I wish we could have POV fucking did this year
1163
00:55:09.130 --> 00:55:10.590
with Undertaker, but I guess not.
1164
00:55:11.030 --> 00:55:13.449
If it was us doing the POV for Undertaker, we'd
1165
00:55:13.469 --> 00:55:15.150
be doing a taunt like in the video game where
1166
00:55:15.170 --> 00:55:16.190
he does a.
1167
00:55:16.190 --> 00:55:19.849
Double thumbs down at the ass. Oh my God. Double
1168
00:55:19.889 --> 00:55:23.840
thumbs down in the ass is fucking legendary. Vicky Carrera
1169
00:55:23.860 --> 00:55:29.920
goes over the two steps. Double thumbs down. Crazy. I
1170
00:55:29.940 --> 00:55:33.099
gotta say though, dude, Vicky takes an, like, this is
1171
00:55:33.139 --> 00:55:36.079
a fantastic tombstone. Yeah. I mean, they had to go
1172
00:55:36.139 --> 00:55:38.079
for it, man. I mean, she bounces off of it.
1173
00:55:38.079 --> 00:55:40.519
It looks great. It was fucking great.
1174
00:55:40.559 --> 00:55:40.780
Yeah.
1175
00:55:40.820 --> 00:55:42.900
Like, I mean, like if you compare this one to
1176
00:55:42.940 --> 00:55:45.179
the Linda McMahon, one that Kane does, like it is
1177
00:55:45.239 --> 00:55:47.719
night and day. Yeah. So like, I hope they keep
1178
00:55:47.760 --> 00:55:49.960
up with the POV tech. Like I'm invested now.
1179
00:55:50.519 --> 00:55:52.119
Big show is walking backstage.
1180
00:55:52.539 --> 00:55:55.619
Hooray. What is he doing?
1181
00:55:55.920 --> 00:55:57.449
He's looking for that POV wrestler.
1182
00:55:57.469 --> 00:56:01.309
Yeah. Hey, leave us alone, bro. We want no smoke
1183
00:56:01.329 --> 00:56:04.210
from you, Big Show. We're
chilling. We're in the locker
1184
00:56:04.230 --> 00:56:07.809
room going through our gear or something. So we go backstage.
1185
00:56:07.949 --> 00:56:10.579
Mike Adamley's here with Teddy Long and Tiffany.
1186
00:56:10.900 --> 00:56:13.739
Wow, that is fucking insane. Mike Adamley is the general
1187
00:56:13.780 --> 00:56:17.460
manager of Raw. Was this the Jeff Harvey guy? Yes,
1188
00:56:17.960 --> 00:56:21.840
Jeff Harvey. I mean, that's the funniest shit ever to me.
1189
00:56:21.840 --> 00:56:27.150
Kofi Kingston, Jamaica, be crazy. No, no, no. What's up
1190
00:56:27.170 --> 00:56:30.940
with this guy? He was fucking insane. Yeah, I don't
1191
00:56:30.960 --> 00:56:34.340
know how he was here. Yeah. So Mike Adam Lee
1192
00:56:34.380 --> 00:56:35.980
is here with them too, as you said, Teddy Long
1193
00:56:36.019 --> 00:56:38.500
and Tiffany. And he says, you know, given the occasion, Teddy,
1194
00:56:38.519 --> 00:56:40.619
you and I look pretty sporty, but Tiffany is off
1195
00:56:40.639 --> 00:56:43.280
the charts, man. And Teddy says, you can believe that player.
1196
00:56:43.920 --> 00:56:46.380
And you know what? I'm proud to be here on SmackDown.
1197
00:56:46.440 --> 00:56:49.639
Big night on my network TV. And then Big Show
1198
00:56:49.679 --> 00:56:52.090
comes in and he says, what the fuck are you
1199
00:56:52.110 --> 00:56:55.030
doing in Vicky's office? What the fuck are you doing here?
1200
00:56:55.809 --> 00:56:58.130
And Mike Adams says, I'm here to represent Raw for
1201
00:56:58.150 --> 00:57:01.289
the All-Star Kickoff. And Teddy says, play, I'm here to
1202
00:57:01.329 --> 00:57:04.329
represent ECW. I didn't fucking realize that. I said, oh, fuck.
1203
00:57:04.630 --> 00:57:06.159
I don't remember Teddy on ECW.
1204
00:57:06.429 --> 00:57:08.880
I thought Tiffany was the ECW GM, honestly.
1205
00:57:09.179 --> 00:57:11.360
Maybe they both were, or she was his assistant, and
1206
00:57:11.380 --> 00:57:14.400
then she becomes the GM. Yeah, okay, that makes sense.
1207
00:57:14.780 --> 00:57:16.679
He says, since I was general manager of SmackDown and
1208
00:57:16.719 --> 00:57:19.429
Vicky isn't here tonight, I thought I could help. And
1209
00:57:19.469 --> 00:57:22.010
Tiffany says, by the way, how is Vicky? And Cho says,
1210
00:57:22.030 --> 00:57:24.179
tell you what. Why don't you three get the fuck
1211
00:57:24.260 --> 00:57:24.679
out of here?
1212
00:57:24.699 --> 00:57:31.000
I mean, all right.
1213
00:57:31.280 --> 00:57:36.000
Shit. Yeah, whatever. Like, right. Okay, well. I don't even
1214
00:57:36.019 --> 00:57:37.739
work here, man. Yeah, I don't really want to be
1215
00:57:37.760 --> 00:57:39.309
here anymore. Like, they're just paying me a lot of money.
1216
00:57:39.369 --> 00:57:41.989
I'm Mike Adamley. Me, Teddy Long, and Tiffany, we're going
1217
00:57:42.010 --> 00:57:44.829
to go Chili's. I don't want to be here. And POV,
1218
00:57:44.869 --> 00:57:47.210
they're coming with us. P-O-V.
1219
00:57:47.530 --> 00:57:48.130
Yeah.
1220
00:57:48.329 --> 00:57:52.809
That's our catchphrase. Big Show is pondering now. And I
1221
00:57:52.849 --> 00:57:54.070
thought that was the end of the segment. But no,
1222
00:57:54.110 --> 00:57:56.590
Chavo's here. And he's holding his back. He's injured.
1223
00:57:56.639 --> 00:57:57.030
He's hurt.
1224
00:57:57.090 --> 00:57:59.179
He's fucking just having a hard time.
1225
00:57:59.360 --> 00:58:00.780
He got that Matt Jackson back.
1226
00:58:01.119 --> 00:58:04.239
Holy shit. Well, it's because we went to work on
1227
00:58:04.280 --> 00:58:05.920
him last week. Like, we beat the fuck out of
1228
00:58:05.940 --> 00:58:08.260
this guy. Oh, yeah, that's true. Chavo says, hey, Big Show,
1229
00:58:08.320 --> 00:58:10.760
I made it, man. But my back is still killing
1230
00:58:10.780 --> 00:58:13.500
me from what Undertaker did last week. He says, Undertaker's
1231
00:58:13.539 --> 00:58:14.760
always here. We got to come up with a plan
1232
00:58:14.780 --> 00:58:17.099
tonight so he doesn't get me again. So I was thinking.
1233
00:58:17.659 --> 00:58:21.480
And Big Show says, Chavo. Shut up. Huge pop. It's
1234
00:58:21.500 --> 00:58:27.679
like Austin coming out. Super live show. Big show says,
1235
00:58:28.360 --> 00:58:31.360
Vicky's not here and I'm in charge tonight. And Chava says, whoa,
1236
00:58:31.420 --> 00:58:34.300
why are you in charge? Vicky's a Guerrero. I'm a Guerrero.
1237
00:58:34.719 --> 00:58:37.280
I should be in charge. Show says, you should be
1238
00:58:37.300 --> 00:58:41.039
in charge. Vicky's injured because of you. Chava says, because
1239
00:58:41.059 --> 00:58:43.360
of me. I was the one telling you not to
1240
00:58:43.400 --> 00:58:45.980
talk to Undertaker that way. And this is funny as shit.
1241
00:58:46.019 --> 00:58:47.780
Show says, Chava, you were the one that got abducted
1242
00:58:47.800 --> 00:58:52.820
by Undertaker. Chavo says, abducted? I was kidnapped. He kidnapped me.
1243
00:58:56.119 --> 00:58:58.159
And Cho says, Chavo, it's all your fault. And because
1244
00:58:58.179 --> 00:59:01.960
of that, you have a match tonight. Fucker. Was that
1245
00:59:02.179 --> 00:59:08.510
him in the limo? Where to, Chavo? Sorry, I don't watch.
1246
00:59:09.460 --> 00:59:14.500
might as well a fucking bitch now chavo would have
1247
00:59:14.519 --> 00:59:16.320
to be able to get a limo like that's not
1248
00:59:16.340 --> 00:59:19.130
happening they're not letting that dude get a limo he's
1249
00:59:19.210 --> 00:59:22.030
riding with koslov and yoshi tatsu to the next town
1250
00:59:23.070 --> 00:59:30.280
sammy zane hates that dude So Big Show tells Chava
1251
00:59:30.300 --> 00:59:32.170
that he's the guy in charge, and if you don't
1252
00:59:32.210 --> 00:59:34.010
go out there tonight and compete, then you're going to
1253
00:59:34.030 --> 00:59:36.690
have a match with me. Chava says, that's cool, man.
1254
00:59:36.730 -->
00:59:39.050
Take it easy. Hey, man. He just says, that's not
1255
00:59:39.070 --> 00:59:45.480
your fucking line. Hey, not your gimmick. He's a champion tonight, pal.
1256
00:59:47.579 --> 00:59:49.280
Chava says, I got a match. I'll talk to you later.
1257
00:59:49.320 --> 00:59:51.960
And he leaves. So Chava will have a match tonight.
1258
00:59:52.639 --> 00:59:56.769
That's a threat. Yeah, I mean, like, if you want
1259
00:59:56.789 --> 00:59:58.510
to fucking hurt the ratings, like, you got to figure
1260
00:59:58.530 --> 00:59:58.989
this out here.
1261
00:59:59.630 --> 01:00:02.949
So now it's time for Santino Marella with Beth Phoenix
1262
01:00:03.030 --> 01:00:04.510
versus Shelton Benjamin.
1263
01:00:04.929 --> 01:00:09.610
Ah, son of my God. Dude, I mean, like, IC champ,
1264
01:00:09.909 --> 01:00:10.820
US champ.
1265
01:00:11.010 --> 01:00:12.000
I mean, here we go.
1266
01:00:12.019 --> 01:00:15.599
This is fucking, I mean, this era Santino is legendary
1267
01:00:15.619 --> 01:00:18.940
to me, dude. Like, I love this shit. Oh, that's
1268
01:00:18.980 --> 01:00:20.019
definitely not what I wrote down.
1269
01:00:20.320 --> 01:00:20.440
Yeah.
1270
01:00:23.670 --> 01:00:25.289
I mean, like, I don't give a fuck about anything
1271
01:00:25.309 --> 01:00:28.329
else on this show. Santino is funny as shit. Like,
1272
01:00:28.369 --> 01:00:30.730
this era of WWE means nothing to me. Yeah, Santino
1273
01:00:30.769 --> 01:00:34.030
should be the longest-running American Idol title champion holder. Fuck it.
1274
01:00:34.730 --> 01:00:37.429
So Santino comes out with Beth Phoenix and Hurricane shows up.
1275
01:00:37.860 --> 01:00:41.420
Or Gregory Helms on the little bubble again. And he says, Santino,
1276
01:00:41.760 --> 01:00:44.719
the honky-tonk man would roll over in his grave if he... Oh,
1277
01:00:44.739 --> 01:00:49.440
he ain't dead? I'm just saying. I'm just saying. Ain't
1278
01:00:49.500 --> 01:00:54.780
that right? Woo! He said it! He said it! Santino's
1279
01:00:54.840 --> 01:00:57.170
here and he says, I must say, it's really great
1280
01:00:57.210 --> 01:01:00.349
to be here. As I put a strike down so
1281
01:01:00.409 --> 01:01:07.210
I can kick off. Hey, man. And in case you've
1282
01:01:07.230 --> 01:01:09.750
been hiding under JR's hat for the last year and
1283
01:01:09.769 --> 01:01:13.960
a half, I'm Santino Marella, the Intercontinental Champion and the
1284
01:01:13.980 --> 01:01:16.900
most feared man in the WWE. Let's go. Now, in
1285
01:01:16.960 --> 01:01:19.519
case you may doubt these words, I have some numbers
1286
01:01:19.559 --> 01:01:25.829
to break them off. Put up the Honka Meter. I mean,
1287
01:01:25.849 --> 01:01:29.769
this is crazy. And you see the Honky Donky Man
1288
01:01:29.949 --> 01:01:35.070
was Intercontinental Champion for 64 weeks. And it shows the
1289
01:01:35.110 --> 01:01:38.489
fucking Honka Meter and there's 64 weeks on it. I,
1290
01:01:38.550 --> 01:01:42.659
Santino Morales, have been Intercontinental Champion for 6.71 weeks. Oh, dang.
1291
01:01:51.139 --> 01:01:55.949
And according to my mathematics, that's 57.29 weeks until I'm
1292
01:01:55.969 --> 01:01:59.469
the greatest intercontinental champion of all the times. I mean,
1293
01:01:59.510 --> 01:02:02.789
I'm giving this guy the WWE title. What the fuck
1294
01:02:02.889 --> 01:02:05.710
changed between like when he came out of the crowd
1295
01:02:05.769 --> 01:02:08.570
and now like, did he hit his head or something?
1296
01:02:08.630 --> 01:02:13.889
He really tapped into that heritage of his. He found himself.
1297
01:02:14.590 --> 01:02:15.849
What part of this is Italian?
1298
01:02:18.960 --> 01:02:21.820
Look at his singlet. Are you kidding me? Like, it
1299
01:02:21.889 --> 01:02:28.250
says Italia on it. He just got that. His song
1300
01:02:28.349 --> 01:02:32.489
says Italian shit at the start. What did his song say?
1301
01:02:37.320 --> 01:02:44.739
Santino That's what it fucking says Is that what it
1302
01:02:44.820 --> 01:02:48.429
actually says? I've never looked it up Santino I thought
1303
01:02:48.489 --> 01:02:52.989
so I thought so Is that right? Oh no it
1304
01:02:53.030 --> 01:02:54.710
does not Wait what?
1305
01:02:54.789 --> 01:02:56.570
It doesn't say Santino Morello?
1306
01:02:56.739 --> 01:02:59.739
I thought it said Santino No it says whatever this
1307
01:02:59.760 --> 01:03:06.550
is Morello Fella! It's his Italian. This is an Italian man,
1308
01:03:06.570 --> 01:03:10.530
you son of a bitch. And tonight, I'm going to
1309
01:03:10.570 --> 01:03:17.280
defeat the Goldilocks, Jonathan Benjamin. Holy shit. He says that
1310
01:03:17.320 --> 01:03:20.480
Goldilocks is merely the champion of one country, the United States,
1311
01:03:21.019 --> 01:03:24.699
but Santino is the champion of all the land masses
1312
01:03:24.739 --> 01:03:28.199
that protrude above the sea level, also known as the continents.
1313
01:03:28.900 --> 01:03:34.559
Which means Santino Marella is the champion of Planet Earth.
1314
01:03:35.400 --> 01:03:37.820
I mean, this is SmackDown to me, this guy, even
1315
01:03:37.840 --> 01:03:39.659
though he's on Raw. Like, keep this guy on every show.
1316
01:03:39.699 --> 01:03:43.280
Is he on Raw? Yeah, he's the Raw fucking Intercontinental Champion, yeah.
1317
01:03:44.039 --> 01:03:46.679
The Honky Tonky Man.
1318
01:03:48.960 --> 01:03:51.940
Hey, man, this guy almost fucking won the Elimination Chamber.
1319
01:03:52.739 --> 01:03:54.320
And I would have been cool with it. He almost
1320
01:03:54.360 --> 01:03:55.159
won the Rumble, too.
1321
01:03:55.300 --> 01:03:55.360
No.
1322
01:03:56.230 --> 01:03:59.389
Hey, man, the Elimination Chamber was, like, actually super hot. Like,
1323
01:03:59.809 --> 01:04:03.000
actually super hot. Fuck yeah, it was, dude. That was
1324
01:04:03.039 --> 01:04:03.579
a good time.
1325
01:04:04.159 --> 01:04:06.780
So Shelton Benjamin responds with a
promo on the Tron.
1326
01:04:06.800 --> 01:04:10.070
Probably should have cut this. Like he really, I don't
1327
01:04:10.090 --> 01:04:12.230
know why they did this to him. This was like
1328
01:04:12.269 --> 01:04:16.929
a fucking burial. Like it's not a great promo. And he, he, uh,
1329
01:04:16.989 --> 01:04:19.409
he says that Santino is a tabloid. I mean, this
1330
01:04:19.469 --> 01:04:21.230
is the most not, he didn't come up with this
1331
01:04:21.250 --> 01:04:24.710
promo ever. Sean calls him a tabloid driven joke of
1332
01:04:24.750 --> 01:04:26.510
a champion that doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the
1333
01:04:26.550 --> 01:04:28.849
same breath as me. So don't blink. Cause the gold
1334
01:04:28.889 --> 01:04:31.800
standard is going to be tomorrow's headline. All right, man,
1335
01:04:31.840 --> 01:04:32.570
come out here and lose.
1336
01:04:32.590 --> 01:04:35.269
I don't think they ever got this guy. Like I'm
1337
01:04:35.289 --> 01:04:39.510
sitting here staring at Shelton Benjamin thinking, why is this
1338
01:04:39.610 --> 01:04:43.090
guy not like a mega star in this company? I
1339
01:04:43.110 --> 01:04:44.809
don't think they, I just don't think they ever got it.
1340
01:04:45.130 --> 01:04:46.900
The time that they did feel like they had it.
1341
01:04:46.969 --> 01:04:49.150
They very quickly let it go when they were fucking
1342
01:04:49.170 --> 01:04:51.750
giving that little push on raw and After that, it
1343
01:04:51.789 --> 01:04:54.510
was like, we just don't know what this guy is
1344
01:04:54.550 --> 01:04:57.960
capable of, even though he looks fucking great. Like the
1345
01:04:58.039 --> 01:05:00.219
theme is over. I think he always gets a reaction
1346
01:05:00.239 --> 01:05:03.099
when his music hits and he can do it all. Like,
1347
01:05:03.500 --> 01:05:06.940
how did this guy only amount to this being fucking
1348
01:05:06.980 --> 01:05:08.159
made fun of Ben Santino?
1349
01:05:08.179 --> 01:05:10.840
Yeah, I thought the gold standard like the gold standard
1350
01:05:10.889 --> 01:05:12.730
on paper. Super cool fucking gimmick.
1351
01:05:12.769 --> 01:05:14.750
By the way. There's no reason he couldn't have won
1352
01:05:14.769 --> 01:05:16.909
the ECW title. Oh my God. Yeah.
1353
01:05:16.969 --> 01:05:18.630
Dude, anyone could have won that fucking title.
1354
01:05:18.650 --> 01:05:21.210
Yeah. Like really? Right. So like, how did he not
1355
01:05:21.250 --> 01:05:23.710
like the gold standard thing was like a total ECW,
1356
01:05:23.750 --> 01:05:25.869
like top guy thing for me. Like, I don't know
1357
01:05:25.929 --> 01:05:27.110
how he didn't win that belt. Yeah.
1358
01:05:27.130 --> 01:05:29.130
That would have been really cool. I think, I think, um,
1359
01:05:30.010 --> 01:05:33.400
he has got mauled by so many bad years. It just, yeah,
1360
01:05:33.420 --> 01:05:34.019
it sucks.
1361
01:05:34.280 --> 01:05:36.619
It sucks. Yeah, no, it is bullshit.
1362
01:05:36.699 --> 01:05:39.340
At least at AEW, he's booked like he's an absolute monster.
1363
01:05:39.420 --> 01:05:42.559
So that's cool. I mean, he is a freak of nature.
1364
01:05:42.599 --> 01:05:47.030
That guy. Ain't no stopping me, no. Remix?
1365
01:05:47.469 --> 01:05:50.369
Yes, the remix version. I was expecting the other song.
1366
01:05:50.590 --> 01:05:52.889
Well, slow down because he's a bad guy. Oh, is
1367
01:05:52.909 --> 01:05:55.679
he the heel? You know what? I don't know. I
1368
01:05:55.679 --> 01:06:00.300
would assume so because of what happens with R-Truth. Right, okay.
1369
01:06:00.559 --> 01:06:02.300
But I mean, they're on separate shows, so.
1370
01:06:02.500 --> 01:06:06.989
They put the two heel mid-card champions against each other. Yeah. Smart.
1371
01:06:07.010 --> 01:06:07.849
Smart move, I think.
1372
01:06:09.030 --> 01:06:11.389
Yeah, this is where JR mentions that Santino is wearing
1373
01:06:11.429 --> 01:06:14.289
that singlet now, so he probably just switched to it.
1374
01:06:14.590 --> 01:06:17.130
There is a few things that happen here with Taz
1375
01:06:17.190 --> 01:06:19.710
and JR. So Taz says, you know, if I had
1376
01:06:19.750 --> 01:06:22.070
to pick, no disrespect to our visitor from Raw, but
1377
01:06:22.090 --> 01:06:24.409
I got to go with Shelton. From an athletic standpoint,
1378
01:06:24.449 --> 01:06:29.409
his wrestling background is unparalleled. Well, what about Santino's haircut?
1379
01:06:29.510 --> 01:06:32.429
What about the unibrow? Taz says, well, the unibrow is
1380
01:06:32.460 --> 01:06:37.000
disgusting in my opinion. LAUGHTER That was crazy. And I
1381
01:06:37.019 --> 01:06:40.269
think Santino's definitely a piece of work. He's short a
1382
01:06:40.289 --> 01:06:47.449
couple cannolis. You got cannolis in Oklahoma? No. It's called
1383
01:06:47.510 --> 01:06:51.710
cornbread there, I guess. Anyway, here's the gold standard. We
1384
01:06:52.300 --> 01:07:00.889
got cobbler. You also have cornbread. Yeah. And then a
1385
01:07:00.909 --> 01:07:03.469
little bit after that, Taz says, by the way, Santino
1386
01:07:03.510 --> 01:07:08.039
plays bocce ball. You're familiar with that, right? No. And
1387
01:07:08.260 --> 01:07:12.050
I swear to God, Taz takes a second and goes, well....
1388
01:07:17.519 --> 01:07:20.110
Santino grabs a headlock here. Shelton throws him away and
1389
01:07:20.119 --> 01:07:20.949
kicks him in the face.
1390
01:07:21.869 --> 01:07:24.550
Santino does a side headlock and yells, that was easy
1391
01:07:24.590 --> 01:07:29.250
for me. LAUGHTER Oh, man.
1392
01:07:29.269 --> 01:07:30.789
Santino was fun as fuck to play as in the
1393
01:07:30.809 --> 01:07:32.659
video game, by the way. He had crazy taunt. He
1394
01:07:32.679 --> 01:07:35.159
had the goddamn trombone or whatever the fuck it was.
1395
01:07:35.420 --> 01:07:38.000
Crazy? Oh, my God. The trombone taunt would tilt me
1396
01:07:38.079 --> 01:07:41.610
so fucking much, man. Dude, are you
stomping around with
1397
01:07:41.619 --> 01:07:42.130
the trombone?
1398
01:07:42.150 --> 01:07:43.789
He's going crazy with that shit, too.
1399
01:07:45.750 --> 01:07:48.889
Like what a fucking little asshole dude he would do
1400
01:07:48.929 --> 01:07:53.070
the goddamn uh the split leg fucking reversal too or
1401
01:07:53.110 --> 01:07:54.610
something or uppercut it was something.
1402
01:07:54.349 --> 01:07:57.050
That he did there the cover man that animation was
1403
01:07:57.150 --> 01:08:00.250
nuts he smacked that bitch around boom.
1404
01:08:00.210 --> 01:08:03.610
Do you remember zombie santino of course i remember zombie
1405
01:08:03.630 --> 01:08:06.230
santino he was in one of my fire for royal
1406
01:08:06.269 --> 01:08:08.739
rumbles i did once he had to show holy fuck
1407
01:08:09.050 --> 01:08:11.260
dude i think his because i think santina's first game
1408
01:08:11.340 --> 01:08:13.679
is the one that's coming up that you know in
1409
01:08:13.780 --> 01:08:17.189
in this year it's svr09 Oh, sure, okay, yeah. And
1410
01:08:17.250 --> 01:08:18.770
he's also Zombie Santino in that.
1411
01:08:19.390 --> 01:08:21.229
Shelton hits him with pay dirt here, but right as
1412
01:08:21.270 --> 01:08:25.100
he does, R-Truth's music hits, and he comes through the crowd.
1413
01:08:25.539 --> 01:08:28.659
R-Truth comes out because Shelton just did his fucking move. Like,
1414
01:08:28.800 --> 01:08:30.180
what the fuck are you doing, buddy? Oh, yeah, what
1415
01:08:30.199 --> 01:08:33.439
the fuck? Yeah, you're right. Son of a bitch. So, Truth, like,
1416
01:08:33.600 --> 01:08:36.529
just started here again. Like, he just came back, like,
1417
01:08:37.750 --> 01:08:41.039
maybe a month or two ago? from tna yeah yeah
1418
01:08:41.119 --> 01:08:43.779
yeah so like he's still super new he's doing the
1419
01:08:43.800 --> 01:08:46.619
what's up shit down through the crowd and shelton is
1420
01:08:46.659 --> 01:08:49.060
still kicking santino's ass while this is going on.
1421
01:08:49.300 --> 01:08:51.840
That wireless mic is struggling in the crowd.
1422
01:08:51.579 --> 01:08:54.970
By the way oh my god like it like it
1423
01:08:54.989 --> 01:08:56.390
could have been if that was an indie show like
1424
01:08:56.430 --> 01:08:57.689
that is way worse.
1425
01:08:57.810 --> 01:08:59.890
We had so many of those moments in dpw where
1426
01:08:59.909 --> 01:09:02.199
the wireless mics would just stop fucking working.
1427
01:09:02.199 --> 01:09:05.380
Dude so annoying i we never really figured out why
1428
01:09:05.539 --> 01:09:07.779
either like there was some kind of interception going on
1429
01:09:07.840 --> 01:09:09.560
or how the speakers were set up or something but
1430
01:09:09.600 --> 01:09:12.020
like there was very precise points of the ring where
1431
01:09:12.039 --> 01:09:14.079
if you stood there the mic was not working.
1432
01:09:14.119 --> 01:09:16.140
Yeah, there was too many dead spots. We probably just
1433
01:09:16.159 --> 01:09:18.720
needed to buy some like fins, like wireless fins.
1434
01:09:18.859 --> 01:09:21.210
Yeah, sure. But we just never got around to it.
1435
01:09:21.300 --> 01:09:23.329
We just told the boys like, all right, if the
1436
01:09:23.369 --> 01:09:25.329
mic's not working, just stand somewhere else.
1437
01:09:26.689 --> 01:09:28.729
Dude, yeah, stand right here.
1438
01:09:29.590 --> 01:09:32.670
So Archer does his entire song all the way through
1439
01:09:32.689 --> 01:09:35.800
the crowd, all the way into the ring, all the
1440
01:09:35.840 --> 01:09:36.680
way up the ramp.
1441
01:09:37.090 --> 01:09:38.810
Like he does the whole thing. And the whole time
1442
01:09:38.850 --> 01:09:41.210
Shelton is like trying to stomp out Santino to keep
1443
01:09:41.250 --> 01:09:43.609
him down, but he keeps getting distracted by R-Truth.
1444
01:09:43.989 --> 01:09:44.310
Yeah.
1445
01:09:44.369 --> 01:09:47.250
Shelton gets distracted here. He gets on the ropes and
1446
01:09:47.310 --> 01:09:50.350
points at R-Truth and Santino hits the one arm power
1447
01:09:50.409 --> 01:09:52.140
bomb off the buckle and steals the win.
1448
01:09:52.479 --> 01:09:54.539
Oh my God. One arm power bomb. Like he should
1449
01:09:54.560 --> 01:09:56.479
have turned that into his finish. I know the Cobra's coming.
1450
01:09:56.500 --> 01:09:59.220
So like, yeah, hold on now. Yeah. Let him do
1451
01:09:59.239 --> 01:10:01.319
his thing. That's fine. I get where you're going here,
1452
01:10:01.359 --> 01:10:05.100
but like shit, one arm power bomb, little pin and
1453
01:10:05.399 --> 01:10:06.279
Santino gets the win.
1454
01:10:06.930 --> 01:10:09.489
So yeah, R-Truth, man, he's on the ramp.
1455
01:10:09.600 --> 01:10:12.560
Shelton just lost. I mean, he's doing his song. He
1456
01:10:12.619 --> 01:10:15.340
dances on the ramp, which is funny as hell. Like,
1457
01:10:15.380 --> 01:10:18.439
danced off it. Like, I love that. JR says, Benjamin
1458
01:10:18.520 --> 01:10:24.970
is sheathing. Coping sheath, Benjamin. That's R-Truth. That's what's up.
1459
01:10:25.569 --> 01:10:28.590
So R-Truth's music stops. He says, what's up? And we
1460
01:10:28.609 --> 01:10:29.270
go to commercial.
1461
01:10:29.550 --> 01:10:31.130
Dude, he just leaves. I thought he was going to, like,
1462
01:10:31.149 --> 01:10:33.149
talk some shit. No, he just says, what's up again?
1463
01:10:33.170 --> 01:10:34.970
He said a lot already, but we get it one
1464
01:10:34.989 --> 01:10:35.390
more time.
1465
01:10:38.449 --> 01:10:40.850
Now it's time for the Big Show Town Hall.
1466
01:10:41.369 --> 01:10:48.399
Well, it's the Big Show. Oh, yeah. Dude, okay. It's
1467
01:10:48.439 --> 01:10:50.859
a super underrated part of that song is, well, it's
1468
01:10:50.880 --> 01:10:54.859
the Big Show. It's the Big Bad Show tonight. Oh, baby,
1469
01:10:54.899 --> 01:11:05.149
come on. That's the first one. That one's funny as fuck.
1470
01:11:05.250 --> 01:11:12.520
It's the Big Show. It's the big man shooting now. Oh, baby,
1471
01:11:12.529 --> 01:11:18.960
come on. They're tapping into something fucking crazy there. Like,
1472
01:11:19.000 --> 01:11:24.539
that's awesome. I love that. I mean, like, any time
1473
01:11:24.579 --> 01:11:31.270
I think of that song, that's what I think of. Oh, man,
1474
01:11:31.289 --> 01:11:35.670
come on. Let's fucking go. Like, push this guy or something,
1475
01:11:35.710 --> 01:11:37.369
will you? Like, can we get this guy to.
1476
01:11:37.310 --> 01:11:37.649
Push, please?
1477
01:11:37.710 --> 01:11:40.470
We're fucking trying. We're fucking trying. I promise you we are.
1478
01:11:41.340 --> 01:11:47.020
So this, all of this, is fucking so funny. Like,
1479
01:11:47.619 --> 01:11:51.000
I love this. This is, like, top moment of the
1480
01:11:51.039 --> 01:11:53.859
show for me. Oh, fuck. Hey, we already fucking fucked
1481
01:11:53.899 --> 01:11:57.220
up your scale. What'd you get that last match? Nah,
1482
01:11:57.239 --> 01:12:05.329
we already passed it, sadly. No! gimmick over. Holy shit.
1483
01:12:05.390 --> 01:12:08.390
I told you it wouldn't take long. Damn, that was
1484
01:12:08.449 --> 01:12:11.829
fucking quick. Wow, SmackDown killed the love of this show.
1485
01:12:12.869 --> 01:12:17.449
This man can't even rate that match. It was so good. Oh, baby,
1486
01:12:17.550 --> 01:12:26.100
come on. Benjamin is seeding. He's coping. He's coping. Coping seed, Benjamin.
1487
01:12:26.439 --> 01:12:28.699
Sean is molding right before our eyes.
1488
01:12:28.720 --> 01:12:29.539
This is such.
1489
01:12:31.170 --> 01:12:39.630
He's Cobra maxing. So big shows in the ring. He's
1490
01:12:39.670 --> 01:12:41.640
got a mic and he says, Vicky, I know you're watching.
1491
01:12:42.270 --> 01:12:43.720
He says, I want you to rest easy. I got
1492
01:12:43.739 --> 01:12:46.079
everything in control here. You and I, and everyone here
1493
01:12:46.100 --> 01:12:48.579
knows why child was about to be in action. And
1494
01:12:48.600 --> 01:12:51.079
that's why I've arranged something special. That'll make you feel better.
1495
01:12:51.439 --> 01:12:54.210
I got to tell you, man. Um, Really would have
1496
01:12:54.229 --> 01:12:56.829
preferred Big Show in the double-strap single here.
1497
01:12:57.229 --> 01:12:59.109
I know. I think he looks cooler with it. I
1498
01:12:59.149 --> 01:13:00.710
don't like when he's fake Andre.
1499
01:13:00.729 --> 01:13:03.609
Yeah, I understand why they go with the single strap,
1500
01:13:03.640 --> 01:13:06.319
just because it's iconic for WWE lore.
1501
01:13:06.760 --> 01:13:08.300
But, yeah, I mean.
1502
01:13:09.239 --> 01:13:11.840
Double strap singlet Big Show is sweet.
1503
01:13:12.140 --> 01:13:14.579
Hell yeah, or just do no straps. I thought he
1504
01:13:14.600 --> 01:13:17.159
looked awesome with just the straps down. He looked big
1505
01:13:17.180 --> 01:13:17.699
as fuck.
1506
01:13:18.039 -->
01:13:20.920
Yeah, but you can drop them. That's why they're there.
1507
01:13:20.979 --> 01:13:22.239
Yeah, that's true.
1508
01:13:22.310 --> 01:13:25.569
Big Show had a crazy habit, by the way, of
1509
01:13:25.970 --> 01:13:29.329
dropping them after the match for a while where he
1510
01:13:29.369 --> 01:13:30.529
would do the whole finish.
1511
01:13:30.630 --> 01:13:31.090
Yeah.
1512
01:13:31.149 --> 01:13:33.760
Yeah, he would do the whole finish. And then the
1513
01:13:33.840 --> 01:13:35.199
bell would ring and he would drop.
1514
01:13:35.020 --> 01:13:40.279
The straps after. Yeah, right. You missed the fucking pop here, pal.
1515
01:13:40.970 --> 01:13:43.289
So Chavo comes out. He's the thinker. Bro thinks he's
1516
01:13:43.310 --> 01:13:45.970
the thinker. He comes out of the ring and Justin
1517
01:13:46.010 --> 01:13:51.479
Roberts says, and facing Chavo Guerrero tonight, the world's strongest man,
1518
01:13:51.819 --> 01:13:55.600
Mark Henry. And I say, oh shit. Okay. Like that's
1519
01:13:55.640 --> 01:13:59.250
kind of, you know, not as exciting because like it's fucking,
1520
01:13:59.489 --> 01:14:01.760
it's two ECW guys on this all-star show. I thought
1521
01:14:01.779 --> 01:14:04.680
they would have had somebody else. And Mark Henry, of course,
1522
01:14:04.720 --> 01:14:07.579
comes out with Tony Atlas. Dude, holy shit.
1523
01:14:07.619 --> 01:14:09.199
I did not expect to see Tony Atlas.
1524
01:14:09.619 --> 01:14:14.329
He's not laughing. He's just Tony Atlas with sleeveless button down.
1525
01:14:14.529 --> 01:14:19.439
All right. That's fucking funny. He's looking insane.
1526
01:14:19.460 --> 01:14:22.100
This also reminds me that we have to cover Legends
1527
01:14:22.119 --> 01:14:23.779
House in some capacity at some point.
1528
01:14:24.600 --> 01:14:28.119
Oh, that's fucking true. Yeah, that's... I don't know how
1529
01:14:28.140 --> 01:14:28.880
many people have.
1530
01:14:28.899 --> 01:14:32.710
I mean, I remember it. I don't remember finishing it,
1531
01:14:32.739 --> 01:14:34.520
but I remember starting it. So I'd be interested to
1532
01:14:34.539 --> 01:14:35.239
see the whole thing.
1533
01:14:35.520 --> 01:14:37.949
Yeah, we got to figure that out. Yeah, absolutely. So
1534
01:14:38.029 --> 01:14:39.369
Mark Henry and Chavo are in the ring. They're getting
1535
01:14:39.390 --> 01:14:41.350
ready for the match. But Justin Roberts is still in
1536
01:14:41.369 --> 01:14:45.300
the ring. And Justin Roberts says... And Mark Henry's tag
1537
01:14:45.319 --> 01:14:52.159
team partner in this handicap match, The Great Kali! Holy shit.
1538
01:14:52.699 --> 01:14:54.279
I mean, you couldn't ask for a better tag partner
1539
01:14:54.300 --> 01:14:54.779
than that.
1540
01:14:55.060 --> 01:14:57.819
That is fucking so awesome, dude. I was hoping they
1541
01:14:57.840 --> 01:15:00.039
were going to keep going. Just keep bringing dudes out
1542
01:15:00.100 --> 01:15:01.699
like I have a four-on-one match.
1543
01:15:02.079 --> 01:15:03.340
Big Show might be the 2008 Booker of the Year.
1544
01:15:07.409 --> 01:15:09.189
I mean, Chavo's flipping out. He's yelling a big show
1545
01:15:09.210 --> 01:15:10.270
saying it wasn't my fault.
1546
01:15:10.670 --> 01:15:12.750
Well, we start the match off here. Mark Henry and
1547
01:15:12.770 --> 01:15:16.050
Great Khali, they beat the fuck out of Chavo Guerrero.
1548
01:15:16.270 --> 01:15:22.109
They fucking kicked this guy's ass. This is like Chavo gets, what,
1549
01:15:22.329 --> 01:15:24.550
one punch on Mark Henry? Shit, maybe.
1550
01:15:24.729 --> 01:15:27.189
Yeah, I mean, Mark Henry stops it pretty quick.
1551
01:15:27.479 --> 01:15:30.659
Dude, JR says Mark Henry has an over 900 deadlift
1552
01:15:30.760 --> 01:15:33.659
and over 600 bench press. That is fucking scary.
1553
01:15:34.380 --> 01:15:37.020
Yeah, so Mark Henry headbutts Chavo here. He starts beating
1554
01:15:37.060 --> 01:15:40.979
him down. Great Khali comes in and hits that overhand chop.
1555
01:15:41.199 --> 01:15:42.899
Like, they don't even sound like his finish. I thought
1556
01:15:42.920 --> 01:15:45.449
that was his finish, but I guess the Khali vice
1557
01:15:45.529 --> 01:15:47.630
was the bigger move. Yeah, right.
1558
01:15:47.689 --> 01:15:49.829
After he fucking killed Rey Mysterio, you know.
1559
01:15:50.689 --> 01:15:53.729
I mean, dude, from all accounts, the Khali chop to
1560
01:15:53.750 --> 01:15:55.229
the head was like getting hit in the head with
1561
01:15:55.270 --> 01:15:56.170
a cement brick.
1562
01:15:56.569 --> 01:15:58.489
Yeah, I mean, he fucking went for it too, man.
1563
01:15:58.750 --> 01:16:00.149
He was not working that, brother.
1564
01:16:00.529 --> 01:16:02.739
Tony Atlas is outside with the sleeves off on the shirt.
1565
01:16:09.239 --> 01:16:10.279
Fuck is wrong with you, buddy?
1566
01:16:10.560 --> 01:16:12.079
Man, that's what they should have done is had Mark
1567
01:16:12.119 --> 01:16:15.210
Henry beating dudes up crazy and Tony Atlas laughing the
1568
01:16:15.229 --> 01:16:17.649
whole time. Mark Henry comes in the ring. He has
1569
01:16:17.670 --> 01:16:19.560
the world's strongest slam on Chavo here.
1570
01:16:19.859 --> 01:16:20.279
Yes.
1571
01:16:20.579 --> 01:16:22.880
I mean, they're just going back and forth, man. Like
1572
01:16:22.920 --> 01:16:25.119
Mark Henry does a movie tags in great Kali. He
1573
01:16:25.159 --> 01:16:26.399
does a movie tags back out.
1574
01:16:26.619 --> 01:16:28.600
I mean, Mark Henry's laughing as they tags out.
1575
01:16:28.949 --> 01:16:31.909
Great Kali comes back in and he locks in that
1576
01:16:32.029 --> 01:16:32.869
vice grip.
1577
01:16:33.130 --> 01:16:35.710
Now Kali vice. He's squishing his head like a grape.
1578
01:16:35.869 --> 01:16:40.300
And like, that's the move that killed Ray Mysterio. They
1579
01:16:40.319 --> 01:16:42.439
cut over to a shot of the Big Show, and
1580
01:16:42.500 -->
01:16:44.640
Big Show is slow clapping as he has his vice
1581
01:16:44.659 --> 01:16:45.140
grip on.
1582
01:16:45.380 --> 01:16:48.520
Dude, I love that, man. Like, the vice grip, it works, too.
1583
01:16:48.560 --> 01:16:50.180
He beats some Chavos out cold.
1584
01:16:50.659 --> 01:16:52.699
He's fucked. The ref has to call for it. Like,
1585
01:16:53.140 --> 01:16:55.380
and then Kali fucking just picks him up and throws
1586
01:16:55.399 --> 01:16:56.380
Chavo to the floor.
1587
01:16:56.619 --> 01:16:59.149
I gotta be honest with you, man. When he shit-canned Chavo,
1588
01:16:59.189 --> 01:17:00.770
I thought he was gonna kill that dude for real.
1589
01:17:01.090 --> 01:17:03.470
Dude, I thought he was gonna fucking 1031 him. I
1590
01:17:03.510 --> 01:17:07.609
thought he was gonna do something real dangerous. I gotta
1591
01:17:07.630 --> 01:17:10.989
be honest with you. And he could have and should have.
1592
01:17:11.510 --> 01:17:12.869
Yeah, get the fuck out of the ring. This is
1593
01:17:12.930 --> 01:17:16.840
a big man's business, buddy. You better recognize, hey, UCW
1594
01:17:17.159 --> 01:17:18.239
is where the Giants roam.
1595
01:17:18.539 --> 01:17:22.020
Hell yeah. I mean, damn, how cool. I mean, big
1596
01:17:22.079 --> 01:17:24.239
show Kali and Henry as a team would have been awesome.
1597
01:17:24.659 --> 01:17:25.939
Hey, we wilded on UCW.
1598
01:17:25.979 --> 01:17:28.210
You take your sins of ass back to Raw. Come
1599
01:17:28.270 --> 01:17:30.310
fuck with the Monster Mash, bitch. Get the fuck out
1600
01:17:30.350 --> 01:17:35.109
of here. You nuts. Fuck off our.
1601
01:17:34.970 --> 01:17:35.409
Show, man.
1602
01:17:37.609 --> 01:17:41.109
We got 45 minutes. Fuck off. Dude, nah, go to ECW.
1603
01:17:43.569 --> 01:17:44.949
I know you want to face CM Punk, but not
1604
01:17:44.989 --> 01:17:45.350
right now.
1605
01:17:45.630 --> 01:17:47.130
You saw what happened to Kurt Angle, right? We'll do
1606
01:17:47.170 --> 01:17:50.439
that shit to you. We'll throw you in the river, man.
1607
01:17:54.539 --> 01:17:57.060
This is my favorite part, I think. So after Mark
1608
01:17:57.100 --> 01:18:00.430
Henry and Great Khali beat the dog shit out of Chavo,
1609
01:18:00.979 --> 01:18:03.630
he gets shitcanned to the outside. Big Show walks over
1610
01:18:03.689 --> 01:18:06.510
to him, picks him up off the ground, and then
1611
01:18:06.569 --> 01:18:08.250
hits the WMD.
1612
01:18:08.350 --> 01:18:10.449
What the fuck, dude? I thought he was going to
1613
01:18:10.510 --> 01:18:11.949
fake it out, right? And like pat him on the
1614
01:18:11.970 --> 01:18:15.079
head like, no, we're cool. Dude, now he punches Chavo
1615
01:18:15.140 --> 01:18:22.210
right in his fucking head. Oh, baby, come on. Oh,
1616
01:18:22.310 --> 01:18:24.840
hell nah. He picks him up off the floor and
1617
01:18:24.939 --> 01:18:28.420
punches the shit out of him. Dude, like right in
1618
01:18:28.439 --> 01:18:31.020
the fucking face too. Like Chavo is dead to rights.
1619
01:18:31.399 --> 01:18:33.060
I'm sorry, bro. Like you're fucked.
1620
01:18:33.359 --> 01:18:36.159
I mean, this fucking promo is funny as fuck too.
1621
01:18:36.239 --> 01:18:38.600
Like Big Show picks this guy up off the ground,
1622
01:18:38.739 --> 01:18:41.770
punches him in the head and says, Undertaker, that's what
1623
01:18:41.789 --> 01:18:43.050
I'm going to do to you too.
1624
01:18:43.090 --> 01:18:51.859
You watching? I don't know. You better be afraid, dead man. Gong. Dude,
1625
01:18:51.880 --> 01:18:53.880
Taker pump fakes the gong. He doesn't even come out
1626
01:18:53.899 --> 01:18:54.340
at first.
1627
01:18:54.720 --> 01:18:56.600
Yeah, I thought that was funny because Big Show shuts
1628
01:18:56.680 --> 01:18:58.279
up immediately and walks out of the ring.
1629
01:18:58.340 --> 01:19:00.520
Powders, he's scared as fuck. Dude, he gets out of
1630
01:19:00.539 --> 01:19:03.060
the ring. The lights go out. Show is looking around
1631
01:19:03.100 --> 01:19:05.180
all paranoid on the floor. He's backing up the ramp
1632
01:19:05.699 --> 01:19:08.310
and the lights come back on. Taker shifted into the ring,
1633
01:19:08.350 --> 01:19:09.119
Meyer style.
1634
01:19:09.319 --> 01:19:11.609
This dude is always aura farming, dude.
1635
01:19:11.970 --> 01:19:15.170
Dude, cutthroat taunt, rolls his eyes back like he is
1636
01:19:15.210 --> 01:19:17.109
just here for the pop. He's not working tonight.
1637
01:19:17.310 --> 01:19:18.890
They should have had the lights go back off and
1638
01:19:18.930 --> 01:19:20.930
Big Show rushed the ring and beat the fuck.
1639
01:19:20.770 --> 01:19:24.739
Out of him. Let's go back on and big show
1640
01:19:24.779 --> 01:19:27.180
Mark Henry and Collier surrounding them and they beat the
1641
01:19:27.220 --> 01:19:29.520
shit out of them. Yeah, it's about ECW time, bitch.
1642
01:19:29.539 --> 01:19:30.180
Are you kidding me?
1643
01:19:30.439 --> 01:19:32.100
The lights go out and they come back on and
1644
01:19:32.140 --> 01:19:41.050
Big Show's out there kicking Chava's ass. The lights come on,
1645
01:19:41.100 --> 01:19:43.460
all three of them are kicking him while he's down.
1646
01:19:43.500 --> 01:19:48.270
Kicking Chavo? Kicking Chavo's ass. Great Khali's giving him kicks.
1647
01:19:48.369 --> 01:19:53.630
Holy shit, Khali kicks are insane looking. EC dub, EC dub.
1648
01:19:54.130 --> 01:19:57.649
Lights out, lights back on. POV, it's us tombstoming Undertaker
1649
01:19:57.670 --> 01:19:59.149
with the ass thumbs.
1650
01:20:01.560 --> 01:20:05.369
So next up here, WWE did you know? Did you
1651
01:20:05.449 --> 01:20:09.789
know that five times as many people watched SmackDown last
1652
01:20:09.869 --> 01:20:14.829
Friday night than UFC 75 champion versus champion on Spike TV?
1653
01:20:15.229 --> 01:20:17.979
Yeah, you better fucking enjoy that while you can, guys. Like,
1654
01:20:17.989 --> 01:20:21.699
they're coming. You
guys are fucked. Yeah, like, you don't
1655
01:20:21.739 --> 01:20:25.000
even know it's coming. You guys are fucked, man. I mean,
1656
01:20:25.420 --> 01:20:29.319
that's pretty crazy, though. I mean, UFC is hot, right? Like,
1657
01:20:29.520 --> 01:20:30.529
in 2008.
1658
01:20:30.529 --> 01:20:34.189
That is not fucking true. They did not have five
1659
01:20:34.210 --> 01:20:38.609
times as many people watching SmackDown. Like that card was
1660
01:20:38.710 --> 01:20:44.359
Rampage versus Dan Henderson. That drew 4.7 million viewers. So
1661
01:20:44.380 --> 01:20:48.340
you're telling me that SmackDown had 20 million viewers last week?
1662
01:20:48.699 --> 01:20:51.939
They said that was last Friday? SmackDown did 4.41 million.
1663
01:20:52.319 --> 01:20:53.060
They did last.
1664
01:20:53.920 --> 01:20:59.319
Yeah, you're telling me that SmackDown had 25 million people.
1665
01:20:58.939 --> 01:21:03.630
Watching last week. Is that what you're telling me right now?
1666
01:21:03.649 --> 01:21:07.630
They tuned in and saw P.O.V. Fucking kicking Chava's ass.
1667
01:21:07.630 --> 01:21:13.579
40 million people. Like, what the fuck? Holy shit. Dude, yeah.
1668
01:21:14.020 --> 01:21:16.760
UFC 75 had achieved the highest recorded ratings for any
1669
01:21:16.920 --> 01:21:18.680
MMA broadcast in North America.
1670
01:21:18.680 --> 01:21:24.029
4.7 with a 5.93 peak. And you're telling me that
1671
01:21:24.350 --> 01:21:27.770
five times as many people watched SmackDown last week.
1672
01:21:28.020 --> 01:21:33.069
They wouldn't lie. Yes, they would. That show sucked. Who
1673
01:21:33.100 --> 01:21:37.520
the fuck cares about Dan Henderson? Dan Henderson's not a draw.
1674
01:21:38.180 --> 01:21:40.180
You're telling me people are tuning in to see Matt
1675
01:21:40.220 --> 01:21:44.100
Hamill and Michael Bisping. Is that right? Light heavyweight decision.
1676
01:21:44.300 --> 01:21:46.310
That's what they're tuning in for. Crow cop is old.
1677
01:21:49.430 --> 01:21:51.970
I load up Undisputed and I'm beating Chet Congo's ass.
1678
01:21:51.989 --> 01:21:53.189
I'm super confused.
1679
01:21:53.210 --> 01:21:54.630
They said UFC 75 took place September 8th, 2007. Well,
1680
01:21:54.649 --> 01:22:12.810
September 27th or whatever, SmackDown drew 45 million viewers. Why
1681
01:22:12.829 --> 01:22:16.779
are they comparing ratings to UFC from last year? Because
1682
01:22:16.960 --> 01:22:20.399
fuck Spike TV, man. All right. Yeah, of course. Understood.
1683
01:22:20.420 --> 01:22:23.399
What they did to us. Wow. I didn't realize that.
1684
01:22:23.439 --> 01:22:24.949
I didn't catch that stuff just now. That shit was
1685
01:22:24.989 --> 01:22:25.850
from a year ago.
1686
01:22:26.449 --> 01:22:29.829
Smackdown was drawing 63 million viewers a week.
1687
01:22:34.279 --> 01:22:37.119
Wow matt hamill you could.
1688
01:22:36.979 --> 01:22:41.560
Go fuck yourself pal because you ain't got nothing on.
1689
01:22:41.520 --> 01:22:43.859
This all right are you telling me that we really
1690
01:22:43.899 --> 01:22:46.220
believe that kid's gonna beat john jones like that's the
1691
01:22:46.279 --> 01:22:48.550
kids gonna be john jones john jones is gonna have
1692
01:22:48.560 --> 01:22:51.270
to do illegal elbows to him and the referee's gonna
1693
01:22:51.289 --> 01:22:56.590
have to call it and who knows john jones might
1694
01:22:56.630 --> 01:23:02.750
retire He's saying this all during that seg. For the
1695
01:23:02.909 --> 01:23:03.750
fourth time.
1696
01:23:07.039 --> 01:23:09.199
You're telling me Ed's got pot for PEDs, but Jon
1697
01:23:09.260 --> 01:23:10.560
Jones doesn't have pot for PEDs.
1698
01:23:10.619 --> 01:23:13.340
Jon Jones is still allowed to do this, huh? That's
1699
01:23:13.359 --> 01:23:14.539
what you guys are watching?
1700
01:23:14.779 --> 01:23:21.130
Dan Henderson only had 4.7 million viewers when Jaffa Guerrero
1701
01:23:21.210 --> 01:23:25.710
and Vladimir Kondzala drew.
1702
01:23:25.130 --> 01:23:35.340
85 million last week. It's a verified number. By the U.S. government.
1703
01:23:37.479 --> 01:23:46.640
Death to MMA. Mike Goldberg, fuck you. You couldn't put
1704
01:23:46.680 --> 01:23:51.260
on my cowboy hat. You come over here and find
1705
01:23:51.279 --> 01:23:53.819
out what it's really about, bitch. You want to do something,
1706
01:23:53.840 --> 01:23:55.520
maybe you take it over to Ted DiBiase Jr., one
1707
01:23:55.619 --> 01:23:58.310
of our tag champions of the world. Yeah, Manu is
1708
01:23:58.350 --> 01:24:00.890
about to draw a crazy rating here on My Network TV.
1709
01:24:02.409 --> 01:24:08.750
One second, who the hell is that? That's a great question.
1710
01:24:09.729 --> 01:24:12.569
So next up, we have Cody Rhodes, Ted DiBiase Jr.
1711
01:24:12.590 --> 01:24:31.300
I give this match a thumbs down. And I don't
1712
01:24:31.319 --> 01:24:35.130
even know what it is yet. Let's see these three
1713
01:24:35.149 --> 01:24:35.949
fucking jabotis.
1714
01:24:38.170 --> 01:24:41.229
This match had a peak in viewership at 95 million.
1715
01:24:45.640 --> 01:24:51.039
This shit better ratings than the news. Take that Ted Turner.
1716
01:24:54.020 --> 01:25:01.899
We got Manu. who the fuck is this he's goddamn
1717
01:25:01.939 --> 01:25:04.579
manu he's here fuck you i.
1718
01:25:04.720 --> 01:25:10.899
Swear on everything man i have never seen this guy
1719
01:25:11.220 --> 01:25:13.479
a single day in my entire life.
1720
01:25:13.560 --> 01:25:16.479
He's an og legacy bro was he like in the
1721
01:25:16.520 --> 01:25:19.020
video games i don't know if manu made it to
1722
01:25:19.060 --> 01:25:19.880
a video game.
1723
01:25:19.659 --> 01:25:25.689
Dude i legit like i have never Ever seen this guy.
1724
01:25:25.489 --> 01:25:30.060
I've never even Heard him mentioned ever So he's like
1725
01:25:30.159 --> 01:25:32.579
with DBI like they were doing like this next Gen
1726
01:25:32.640 -->
01:25:35.520
fucking group right like this is Before Orton's involved Orton's
1727
01:25:35.560 --> 01:25:38.310
not even with these guys Yet and then like they
1728
01:25:38.350 --> 01:25:40.729
Go to raw and then they start like a Feud
1729
01:25:40.770 --> 01:25:41.890
with Orton And.
1730
01:25:42.010 --> 01:25:43.750
He was supposed to be like Randy Orton of the group.
1731
01:25:44.350 --> 01:25:47.109
I don't think that's right. I think he was just
1732
01:25:47.510 --> 01:25:49.609
he was the heavy. You know what I mean? OK.
1733
01:25:49.670 --> 01:25:53.489
And then like Orton was like in an angle with them.
1734
01:25:54.069 --> 01:25:57.659
And then Manu and Cody accepted Orton's offer for an
1735
01:25:57.699 --> 01:26:00.420
alliance in the following weeks. And they called themselves the legacy.
1736
01:26:01.079 --> 01:26:04.579
And then Teddy Biasi like came back from something. And
1737
01:26:04.619 --> 01:26:06.979
then they kicked Manu out. Yeah, dude.
1738
01:26:07.020 --> 01:26:10.300
I mean, first time for everything, you know. Well, Cody Rhodes,
1739
01:26:10.359 --> 01:26:11.500
Ted DiBiase Jr.
1740
01:26:11.579 --> 01:26:11.720
and.
1741
01:26:13.609 --> 01:26:17.909
Manu? Manu. Come on, that's the son of Alpha and Hawaii. Oh,
1742
01:26:17.949 --> 01:26:20.449
I'm sure it is. He's related to Roman Reigns, The Rock,
1743
01:26:20.489 --> 01:26:23.210
The Usos, Yokozuna, Umaga, Rikishi, and others.
1744
01:26:23.710 --> 01:26:26.020
You think he's drawing a bigger rate than Rampage Jackson
1745
01:26:26.029 --> 01:26:26.960
and Dan Anderson, or what?
1746
01:26:26.979 --> 01:26:29.399
What are you thinking? Well, that is a confirmed statistic
1747
01:26:29.439 --> 01:26:34.069
that I have here in front of me. No question, dumbass.
1748
01:26:34.569 --> 01:26:37.649
Cody Rhodes, Ted DiBiase Jr., and Manu will be taking
1749
01:26:37.810 --> 01:26:40.850
on Primo and Carlito in a three-on-two handicap match.
1750
01:26:42.300 --> 01:26:43.899
Is that what it was going to be?
1751
01:26:44.260 --> 01:26:46.220
Dude, I swear to God that's what it was going
1752
01:26:46.239 --> 01:26:46.560
to be.
1753
01:26:47.000 --> 01:26:48.260
I thought it was just going to be like Carlito
1754
01:26:48.279 --> 01:26:50.579
and Primo against... I thought it was like tag champ
1755
01:26:50.600 --> 01:26:52.520
versus tag champ, right? And Manu was just out there?
1756
01:26:52.539 --> 01:26:55.220
Hell nah, they brought Manu out there to work. He
1757
01:26:55.239 --> 01:26:57.319
was in his gear. Yeah, he was in his gear,
1758
01:26:57.340 --> 01:27:00.979
you're right. They do a little shitty picture-in-picture promo. Fucking
1759
01:27:01.000 --> 01:27:02.000
not even worth talking about.
1760
01:27:02.250 --> 01:27:05.869
Dude, picture in picture promo Ted DiBiase says, when it
1761
01:27:05.930 --> 01:27:07.750
comes to brand supremacy, there is.
1762
01:27:07.789 --> 01:27:11.539
No question Raw is the dominant force in sports entertainment.
1763
01:27:12.000 --> 01:27:13.659
That's a good line. You said it good there.
1764
01:27:14.060 --> 01:27:16.399
Hey, with all respect, bro, you got to get fired
1765
01:27:16.460 --> 01:27:16.859

01:27:19.760 --> 01:27:24.399

1774
01:27:50.579 --> 01:27:54.659
Somebody get Randy Orton here right now. Even crazier, Carlito
1775
01:27:54.699 --> 01:27:57.090
and Primo walk out here. They're the fucking tag team
1776
01:27:57.149 --> 01:27:58.930
champions of the world. I couldn't believe that.
1777
01:27:59.270 --> 01:28:01.090
They just won them. They won them last Friday on
1778
01:28:01.130 --> 01:28:03.149
SmackDown in front of 40,000 strong. 40,000 strong at the
1779
01:28:04.689 --> 01:28:11.130
Tokyo Dome. In front of 75 million people. They beat
1780
01:28:11.149 --> 01:28:13.609
Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins for these fucking tag titles.
1781
01:28:13.670 --> 01:28:16.029
And it's the most watched tag match ever. Read it
1782
01:28:16.050 --> 01:28:23.630
and weep, Dan Henderson. Stop that, fucking bitch. Are you serious?
1783
01:28:23.949 --> 01:28:29.159
Matt Hamill, you want to try again? You want to
1784
01:28:29.199 --> 01:28:31.180
try again? You want to beat Jon Jones about it?
1785
01:28:31.180 --> 01:28:33.399
What are you going to do? They beat Zack Ryder
1786
01:28:33.460 --> 01:28:38.310
and Girl Hawkins? It was one of the top guys
1787
01:28:38.369 --> 01:28:39.289
of SmackDown at the time.
1788
01:28:39.510 --> 01:28:41.850
Dude, I always thought it was like so damn dumb
1789
01:28:41.890 --> 01:28:44.229
that like most of the time, like guys like fucking
1790
01:28:44.260 --> 01:28:46.000
Batista didn't even want the tag titles.
1791
01:28:46.039 --> 01:28:48.000
Like it was like, dude, it was, if they even
1792
01:28:48.020 --> 01:28:50.000
went for it, it was dragging them down a few notches.
1793
01:28:50.380 --> 01:28:52.960
That is like so long here. I mean, it's kind
1794
01:28:53.000 --> 01:28:54.939
of still to this day with fucking TV wrestling. Like,
1795
01:28:55.720 --> 01:28:58.840
like it's fucking bullshit. Like the tag titles are the
1796
01:28:58.899 --> 01:29:01.319
world titles in the tag division. These are just as
1797
01:29:01.380 --> 01:29:03.420
important as the world title or they should be.
1798
01:29:03.439 --> 01:29:03.520
Yeah.
1799
01:29:04.180 -->
01:29:06.239
Kind of like put these guys on an Island. Like,
1800
01:29:06.979 --> 01:29:09.739
Carlito and Primo and Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins and
1801
01:29:09.979 --> 01:29:13.199
fucking Manu and Cody Rhodes or whatever the fuck. They're
1802
01:29:13.239 --> 01:29:15.310
only ever interacting with each other, right?
1803
01:29:15.470 --> 01:29:15.710
Ever.
1804
01:29:15.810 --> 01:29:16.909
Right. Like that's it.
1805
01:29:17.270 --> 01:29:19.930
Like, I think they should have done more shit where
1806
01:29:19.970 --> 01:29:22.729
it's like, you know, Batista and like anybody else that
1807
01:29:22.750 --> 01:29:24.130
can take a pin. Like Batista doesn't have to take
1808
01:29:24.149 --> 01:29:24.850
the pin here.
1809
01:29:24.869 --> 01:29:24.949
Sure.
1810
01:29:25.029 --> 01:29:27.920
Any other guy with Batista should challenge these guys for
1811
01:29:27.939 --> 01:29:28.420
the belts.
1812
01:29:28.300 --> 01:29:29.619
And let them beat them. Yeah.
1813
01:29:29.680 --> 01:29:32.640
Like legit, just anybody and have them beat those guys
1814
01:29:32.659 --> 01:29:34.399
just so they interact with other guys that aren't the
1815
01:29:34.439 --> 01:29:36.659
same fucking four guys over and over again.
1816
01:29:36.859 --> 01:29:40.079
Elevate it. Yes. Right. Why not? Fuck not. Like there's
1817
01:29:40.119 --> 01:29:43.470
no reason these can't be main event titles. So Primo
1818
01:29:43.489 --> 01:29:46.189
and Carlito are here, and Carlito is on the mic,
1819
01:29:46.229 --> 01:29:48.149
and he says, now I know you guys were supposed
1820
01:29:48.170 --> 01:29:50.390
to face Primo and Carlito two on two, but we
1821
01:29:50.409 --> 01:29:52.899
were thinking about it. Manu's going to be standing out
1822
01:29:52.909 --> 01:29:55.399
there the whole time just looking like an idiot. Big
1823
01:29:55.479 --> 01:29:59.140
fucking pop. Rockets fucking pop. I mean, like, yeah, man.
1824
01:29:59.140 --> 01:30:01.100
75 million at home standing and cheering.
1825
01:30:02.699 --> 01:30:05.779
Well, more normally than he does. Calm down. So we decided,
1826
01:30:05.920 --> 01:30:08.100
and I hope you guys approve, to make this a
1827
01:30:08.119 --> 01:30:11.109
six-man tag. So I guess they do accept this, James,
1828
01:30:11.270 --> 01:30:13.829
because it does turn into a six-man tag when CM
1829
01:30:13.850 --> 01:30:14.670
Punk comes out.
1830
01:30:15.329 --> 01:30:20.050
CM Punk is so over. He comes out of this fire, burns.
1831
01:30:20.510 --> 01:30:21.149
This is the GOAT.
1832
01:30:21.310 --> 01:30:21.890
I don't know, man.
1833
01:30:21.930 --> 01:30:24.340
Like, it just is what it is. Dude, I love this. Yeah,
1834
01:30:24.380 --> 01:30:26.380
he comes out. He's on Raw. We are already through
1835
01:30:26.399 --> 01:30:29.300
the Money in the Bank world title deal. Oh, that's cool. Okay. Yeah,
1836
01:30:29.319 --> 01:30:31.640
that's already happened. So, like, you know, the crowd's super
1837
01:30:31.680
--> 01:30:34.600
behind him. And we get ourselves a six-man tag. It's
1838
01:30:34.619 --> 01:30:37.659
Cody Rhodes, Ted DiBiase, and Manu versus Primo Carlito and
1839
01:30:37.720 --> 01:30:39.590
CM Punk. Big CM Punk chant here.
1840
01:30:39.949 --> 01:30:42.569
Yeah, they're chanting CM Punk. Don't let anyone ever tell
1841
01:30:42.590 --> 01:30:44.390
you this guy wasn't over till the pipe bomb, by
1842
01:30:44.430 --> 01:30:44.750
the way.
1843
01:30:44.949 --> 01:30:47.050
Get the fuck out of here. Yeah, no way. He
1844
01:30:47.069 --> 01:30:48.729
was like he was over day one.
1845
01:30:48.869 --> 01:30:51.710
Yeah, super over. Like, I can't imagine this match without
1846
01:30:51.750 --> 01:30:52.170
him here.
1847
01:30:52.210 --> 01:30:53.170
Like, holy shit.
1848
01:30:53.189 --> 01:30:54.890
He added so much to this match, man.
1849
01:30:54.949 --> 01:30:57.479
Like, yeah, like, it's nuts, dude. I mean, he's the
1850
01:30:57.520 --> 01:30:58.939
only one that does anything in this match.
1851
01:30:59.640 --> 01:31:02.720
So Rhodes and DiBiase go to work on Primo, but
1852
01:31:02.800 --> 01:31:05.560
Primo flips over DiBiase, rolls through, and him and Carlito
1853
01:31:05.579 --> 01:31:06.619
hit double dropkicks.
1854
01:31:06.989 --> 01:31:09.770
Yeah, that's, you know, nice rock and roll express, like
1855
01:31:09.810 --> 01:31:11.189
a dropkick there. You know them, Taz?
1856
01:31:11.229 --> 01:31:14.350
Dude, I was legit, like, I was writing down, like,
1857
01:31:14.569 --> 01:31:17.520
that was really rock and roll-esque, like the double dropkick thing,
1858
01:31:17.579 --> 01:31:19.619
and JR said, I said, wow, he's good at his job.
1859
01:31:20.020 --> 01:31:22.979
He's fun. He loves wrestling, and he's good at this shit. Yeah, man.
1860
01:31:23.100 --> 01:31:24.050
Nah, for real, though. It was.
1861
01:31:24.060 --> 01:31:26.550
I mean, like, I love that shit. Yeah, a little
1862
01:31:26.560 --> 01:31:29.390
double dropkick, stuff like that. Like, yeah, that's good, man.
1863
01:31:29.649 --> 01:31:31.609
I love Primo. He looked great here. His footwork was
1864
01:31:31.670 --> 01:31:31.989
all good.
1865
01:31:32.029 --> 01:31:34.069
He looked good here. They got Carlito and him have
1866
01:31:34.109 --> 01:31:36.449
some good baby face chemistry too. I mean, obviously they're family,
1867
01:31:36.470 --> 01:31:37.770
but yeah, no, they worked well together here.
1868
01:31:37.949 --> 01:31:40.409
They got Carlito in the fucking IWA pants.
1869
01:31:40.869 --> 01:31:45.010
Holy shit. Little pleather. I love that. Manu comes in.
1870
01:31:45.029 --> 01:31:47.390
I mean, he could have done anything here. He has all,
1871
01:31:47.409 --> 01:31:49.770
this is like a blank slate, man. He could do anything.
1872
01:31:49.789 --> 01:31:51.590
He could really impress me here. Did he?
1873
01:31:51.609 --> 01:31:52.930
I don't know.
1874
01:31:52.949 --> 01:31:54.270
The leaping head putt was kind of cool.
1875
01:31:54.289 --> 01:31:56.489
He did here. He got some distance there. Yeah. Did
1876
01:31:56.510 --> 01:31:59.930
the power slam. Did the jumping fucking running flying head,
1877
01:31:59.970 --> 01:32:01.770
but yeah, that was dope. That's all he does. Yeah.
1878
01:32:02.439 --> 01:32:03.920
That's like the end of his part of this match.
1879
01:32:04.560 --> 01:32:07.000
So DiBiase comes in. He hits a double foot stomp
1880
01:32:07.060 --> 01:32:08.239
on Carlito for two.
1881
01:32:08.720 --> 01:32:10.720
Ashed a million dollar feat from the son of the
1882
01:32:10.760 --> 01:32:16.159
million dollar man. Who's this guy's dad? Do I know him?
1883
01:32:16.220 --> 01:32:20.140
Fitz McMahon. Finley. Oh, shit. Okay. Yeah, I do know him.
1884
01:32:20.159 --> 01:32:24.460
Saw him earlier. He was on the show. Ted DiBiase says, hey,
1885
01:32:24.500 --> 01:32:29.989
I'm Ted DiBiase. He's like, who's your dad? Who is
1886
01:32:30.010 --> 01:32:35.840
your dad to you and what does he do? Hey,
1887
01:32:36.100 --> 01:32:40.890
he's not even junior. I'm Ted DiBiase. Oh, shit. Okay.
1888
01:32:40.930 --> 01:32:43.729
You look crazy young. Yeah. Wow. You fucking spent a
1889
01:32:43.750 --> 01:32:47.069
lot of money on surgery, huh? Like you had Dave
1890
01:32:47.090 --> 01:32:50.310
and Earl do. Holy shit. Yeah. I mean, that surgery
1891
01:32:50.350 --> 01:32:52.659
was nuts. I mean, what a good gimmick. They just
1892
01:32:52.699 --> 01:32:54.880
keep bringing in new Ted DiBiase and he just had
1893
01:32:54.920 --> 01:32:57.220
a reconstructive surgery over and over again.
1894
01:32:58.130 --> 01:33:00.270
Cody jumps for a drop kick here and misses. This
1895
01:33:00.289 --> 01:33:02.189
allows CM Punk to tag in. He comes in and
1896
01:33:02.210 --> 01:33:03.050
hits Air Pillman.
1897
01:33:03.369 --> 01:33:06.899
Dude, huge springboard clothesline on DiBiase. And they had a
1898
01:33:07.000 --> 01:33:08.619
great shot of it. They were like, the camera guy
1899
01:33:08.640 --> 01:33:10.500
was across the ring underneath it. It looked like CM
1900
01:33:10.539 --> 01:33:13.760
Punk flew forever. Punk hits the video game combo on
1901
01:33:13.779 --> 01:33:16.520
Dibiase and the leg lariat. I wrote that too as
1902
01:33:16.579 --> 01:33:17.960
an SVR combo from Punk.
1903
01:33:18.300 --> 01:33:19.819
He does the running knee and the bulldog out of
1904
01:33:19.840 --> 01:33:22.850
the corner for a two. Primo house shows on Cody.
1905
01:33:23.210 --> 01:33:25.170
Carlito does a flipping senton on Amanu.
1906
01:33:25.430 --> 01:33:26.789
Plancha!
1907
01:33:27.130 --> 01:33:29.630
Punk then hits the GTS on Dibiase and picks up
1908
01:33:29.649 --> 01:33:30.010
the win.
1909
01:33:30.409 --> 01:33:34.250
Yeah, man. I mean, babyfaces get a win here. Fucking
1910
01:33:34.270 --> 01:33:37.890
put the babies over. Punk gets a big pop. Primo
1911
01:33:37.930 --> 01:33:40.510
and fucking Carlito look good. This is fine.
1912
01:33:41.350 --> 01:33:44.760
Backstage segment here, Jesse and Festus are backstage watching the TV.
1913
01:33:46.060 --> 01:33:51.760
Biscuits and gravy! Maybe a man! That should always be
1914
01:33:51.800 --> 01:33:53.000
playing when these guys are on screen.
1915
01:33:53.319 --> 01:33:55.239
Yeah, I mean, they just helped out move this whole
1916
01:33:55.279 --> 01:33:56.569
TV show, it seems like.
1917
01:33:57.050 --> 01:33:59.050
I could not believe what I was fucking hearing. They're
1918
01:33:59.109 --> 01:34:02.689
sitting there in their moving outfits, I guess, and there's
1919
01:34:02.710 --> 01:34:04.989
a bunch of My Moving Company boxes around them with
1920
01:34:05.029 --> 01:34:08.270
bubble wrap and shit, and Jesse says, we finally did it, Festus!
1921
01:34:08.609 --> 01:34:11.640
And he's talking, and JR just talks over him. I said,
1922
01:34:11.779 --> 01:34:14.020
what the fuck is going on? I'll do the promo
1923
01:34:14.039 --> 01:34:14.560
for you, Sean.
1924
01:34:14.779 --> 01:34:15.060
Yeah!
1925
01:34:16.140 --> 01:34:19.779
Look, guys, we suck at acting. I got it. Don't
1926
01:34:19.819 --> 01:34:21.420
worry about it, Sean. I'll take it here. We want
1927
01:34:21.439 --> 01:34:24.350
to thank Jesse and Festus for helping us move from
1928
01:34:24.409 --> 01:34:27.270
our previous network over to here to my network. They
1929
01:34:27.310 --> 01:34:30.090
did a great job. Thanks a lot, fellas. Your check's
1930
01:34:30.229 --> 01:34:34.569
in the mail. Holy shit. Okay. They like super needed
1931
01:34:34.609 --> 01:34:36.210
Jesse and Festus on the show. How do we get
1932
01:34:36.229 --> 01:34:39.020
Jesse and Festus on the show? Ah, they fucking moved
1933
01:34:39.079 --> 01:34:42.239
us here. Perfect. I mean, Festus does a great promo.
1934
01:34:42.760 --> 01:34:44.880
He looks tremendous, too.
1935
01:34:46.569 --> 01:34:49.069
How do you think, like, they figured this whole thing out?
1936
01:34:49.109 --> 01:34:50.659
He was just doing that one day. They say, hey,
1937
01:34:50.670 --> 01:34:53.649
hold that. Hold that. Oh, my God. Yeah, that's I mean,
1938
01:34:53.750 --> 01:34:56.170
or somebody saw it like somewhere else. Stole it.
1939
01:34:56.449 --> 01:34:57.970
Yeah, I just I don't know how you come up
1940
01:34:57.989 --> 01:34:59.829
with that gimmick. Like, how do you fucking find out
1941
01:34:59.850 --> 01:35:00.689
this guy can do that?
1942
01:35:01.489 --> 01:35:04.060
He can look like that. Yeah, like all the time.
1943
01:35:05.399 --> 01:35:07.039
The ring bell part's what brings it all together.
1944
01:35:07.779 --> 01:35:10.859
Beth Phoenix versus Michelle McCool up next. This is the
1945
01:35:10.939 --> 01:35:12.779
women's title versus Divas title match.
1946
01:35:13.260 --> 01:35:16.220
Yeah, we get to a WWE Divas Tron and song,
1947
01:35:16.300 --> 01:35:18.760
and I'm like, what the fuck is this? And then
1948
01:35:19.039 --> 01:35:22.189
all the Divas come
out, all of them. And JR says,
1949
01:35:22.270 --> 01:35:24.670
it'll be a historic first in the long annals of
1950
01:35:24.689 --> 01:35:28.510
the WWE. A Divas Lumberjack match pitting the Divas champion
1951
01:35:28.529 --> 01:35:32.189
Michelle McHugh against Beth Phoenix, the WWE Women's Champion. And
1952
01:35:32.210 --> 01:35:35.270
these lovely ladies will be surrounding the ring. You know,
1953
01:35:35.289 --> 01:35:39.680
we got to come up with a better name than Lumberjacks. And, oh,
1954
01:35:39.689 --> 01:35:41.409
I see Gail came out there. Usually when there's a
1955
01:35:41.430 --> 01:35:43.550
battle royale situation, she just rolls out and quits. Maybe
1956
01:35:43.569 --> 01:35:49.949
that'll happen here soon. Oh, it's Katie the Birch-o there.
1957
01:35:50.750 --> 01:35:53.550
Got an interesting idea for her and her brother coming
1958
01:35:53.569 --> 01:35:53.829
up here.
1959
01:35:56.630 --> 01:35:58.149
They do come out with a different name for them.
1960
01:35:58.170 --> 01:36:01.189
That's where they start calling them Lumber Jills at some point.
1961
01:36:01.229 --> 01:36:05.699
They do. They do call them Lumber Jills. Yeah, because
1962
01:36:05.760 --> 01:36:07.300
Lumber Jacks just wasn't good enough.
1963
01:36:08.020 --> 01:36:12.250
So Beth will face Candice Michelle at the pay-per-view, and
1964
01:36:12.329 --> 01:36:15.949
Michelle McCool has something going on with Maryse, I think.
1965
01:36:16.449 --> 01:36:19.270
Yeah, I don't think, I mean, that's like a Raw,
1966
01:36:19.409 --> 01:36:21.130
or no, that's a SmackDown deal too, so I don't
1967
01:36:21.149 --> 01:36:24.130
know what's going on there. But yeah, they're in an angle,
1968
01:36:24.229 --> 01:36:26.989
it seems like, because Maryse is not too fond of
1969
01:36:27.060 --> 01:36:30.100
Michelle McCool when she comes out here. And Michelle McCool
1970
01:36:30.140 --> 01:36:32.609
is the first Divas Champion in history. So we get
1971
01:36:32.649 --> 01:36:33.979
things started in the ring here.
1972
01:36:34.239 --> 01:36:36.720
Michelle McCool tries to outpower Beth early here with the
1973
01:36:36.739 --> 01:36:38.020
shoulder tackle, but it doesn't work.
1974
01:36:38.359 --> 01:36:39.119
Nope.
1975
01:36:39.159 --> 01:36:41.220
She tries to use her agility here with a wheelbarrow,
1976
01:36:41.739 --> 01:36:43.779
but Beth just stops her and hits a belly to back.
1977
01:36:44.100 --> 01:36:46.979
That was fucking awesome. Like Beth powered her up crazy
1978
01:36:47.020 --> 01:36:48.630
for that belly to back. Very cool sequence.
1979
01:36:48.970 --> 01:36:51.109
Yeah, Beth was really good at looking big in the ring.
1980
01:36:51.329 --> 01:36:54.149
Yes, she was a great base here for Michelle as well.
1981
01:36:54.789 --> 01:36:57.130
Beth gets McCool in a rack the long way for
1982
01:36:57.149 --> 01:37:00.369
a submission here. But Michelle McCool gets out and flips
1983
01:37:00.390 --> 01:37:01.489
into a pin for
a quick two.
1984
01:37:01.829 --> 01:37:04.100
Dude, the flip out was very cool. I wrote it
1985
01:37:04.140 --> 01:37:06.220
down as Canadian Backbreaker. I don't know why I have
1986
01:37:06.260 --> 01:37:09.079
that in my brain. Maybe that was a video game thing. Yeah, maybe.
1987
01:37:09.119 --> 01:37:10.039
I think that's probably right.
1988
01:37:10.140 --> 01:37:10.340
Yeah.
1989
01:37:10.380 --> 01:37:13.560
Yeah. But it's like the setup for the Dominator. That's
1990
01:37:13.579 --> 01:37:14.159
what she was in.
1991
01:37:14.729 --> 01:37:17.010
Beth holds on to the ropes here. She goes to
1992
01:37:17.050 --> 01:37:19.529
turn around, but Michelle McCool boots her for a two.
1993
01:37:19.829 --> 01:37:22.199
Big fucking boot. That becomes like a mainstay of Michelle
1994
01:37:22.220 --> 01:37:24.960
McCool's deal, too. I always remember her doing the running
1995
01:37:25.000 --> 01:37:25.380
big boot.
1996
01:37:25.880 --> 01:37:28.880
Beth rolls to the outside here. Then Michelle McCool baseball
1997
01:37:28.899 --> 01:37:31.720
slides out there. And then everyone just starts fighting on
1998
01:37:31.739 --> 01:37:32.359
the outside.
1999
01:37:32.819 --> 01:37:34.949
I couldn't tell if it was the heel women that
2000
01:37:34.989 --> 01:37:38.069
attacked Michelle here because Beth was on the floor and
2001
01:37:38.109 --> 01:37:40.109
they didn't attack her. Beth goes in. Michelle comes out
2002
01:37:40.130 --> 01:37:41.880
with a baseball slide and then they all jump her.
2003
01:37:41.890 --> 01:37:43.069
I didn't know if it was the heel ones or
2004
01:37:43.109 --> 01:37:45.939
the raw girls that were jumping her. I couldn't tell.
2005
01:37:46.159 --> 01:37:48.529
I don't know who's on what show. And while they're brawling,
2006
01:37:48.569 --> 01:37:51.189
by the way, I mean, Beth is back in the ring.
2007
01:37:51.210 --> 01:37:53.430
The heels jump Michelle and Michelle tries to get back
2008
01:37:53.489 --> 01:37:55.989
in and Maurice chop blocks her on the apron.
2009
01:37:56.369 --> 01:37:58.630
Yeah, I mean, they're not even fighting Michelle McCool or Beth.
2010
01:37:58.649 --> 01:38:01.850
They're just fighting each other. Yeah, it turns into what
2011
01:38:02.140 --> 01:38:04.260
Taz calls it a cat fight. And JR says, oh,
2012
01:38:04.279 --> 01:38:07.399
a cat fight? You keep that shit on ECW, will you?
2013
01:38:09.300 --> 01:38:10.100
Fucking bullshit.
2014
01:38:10.899 --> 01:38:13.260
So yeah, Maurice pulls McCool's leg when they're both back
2015
01:38:13.279 --> 01:38:16.460
in the ring here, which allows Beth to hit A Memphis.
2016
01:38:17.270 --> 01:38:19.729
McCool climbs the ropes here, but Maurice gets on the apron.
2017
01:38:19.750 --> 01:38:21.689
I mean, she just blatantly gets on the apron here.
2018
01:38:23.029 --> 01:38:23.949
Trying to cheat crazy.
2019
01:38:24.210 --> 01:38:26.770
McCool kicks her down, but that gives Beth enough space
2020
01:38:26.810 --> 01:38:29.229
here to hit the glam slam and she picks up
2021
01:38:29.250 --> 01:38:29.569
the win.
2022
01:38:30.100 --> 01:38:32.979
With the glam slam she fuck the way she does
2023
01:38:33.039 --> 01:38:35.119
this is so awesome I feel like anyone else that
2024
01:38:35.159 --> 01:38:38.279
does this move lets the arms go Beth Phoenix is
2025
01:38:38.350 --> 01:38:40.729
not letting your arms go you're going to fucking hell
2026
01:38:40.789 --> 01:38:41.869
on the glam slam.
2027
01:38:41.850 --> 01:38:43.470
Yeah I always thought she looked really good doing it
2028
01:38:43.829 --> 01:38:46.069
yeah I and I enjoyed this match dude I really
2029
01:38:46.090 --> 01:38:47.789
like this one this might be my favorite match of
2030
01:38:47.810 --> 01:38:53.090
the night We go to a pre-tape here. Chris Jericho
2031
01:38:53.130 --> 01:38:55.630
versus Shawn Michaels ladder match. That's going to be for
2032
01:38:55.649 --> 01:38:57.800
the world heavyweight title. And that's going to be at
2033
01:38:57.909 --> 01:38:59.229
No Mercy this Sunday.
2034
01:38:59.699 --> 01:39:02.399
And I think a lot of people remember this Jericho-Shawn feud.
2035
01:39:02.439 --> 01:39:04.479
And probably mostly because of the thing they did where
2036
01:39:04.640 --> 01:39:08.619
Jericho punched Shawn's wife in the head. Holy fuck. Okay. Yeah.
2037
01:39:08.899 --> 01:39:12.500
You remember that? No. Dude, yeah. He fucking, he went
2038
01:39:12.520 --> 01:39:15.010
to punch Shawn. I think he ducked and like he
2039
01:39:15.250 --> 01:39:18.529
decked Shawn's wife. I also think he throws Shawn through
2040
01:39:18.569 --> 01:39:19.409
the Jeritron thing.
2041
01:39:19.810 --> 01:39:22.189
I remember that. Yeah, I remember seeing that.
2042
01:39:22.529 --> 01:39:25.479
So that was like that whole angle. So I remember this.
2043
01:39:25.500 --> 01:39:27.699
I remember this Jericho run a lot here, too. For
2044
01:39:27.739 --> 01:39:30.039
some reason, I don't know why, but I totally remember
2045
01:39:30.079 --> 01:39:31.979
when he won the world title here. Like, I remember
2046
01:39:32.000 --> 01:39:34.399
him facing Sean. And then the same night he got
2047
01:39:34.439 --> 01:39:37.399
put into the championship scramble match and won the world title. Yeah,
2048
01:39:37.439 --> 01:39:39.020
that's right. Same night and everything.
2049
01:39:39.060 --> 01:39:39.319
Yeah.
2050
01:39:39.430 --> 01:39:42.109
I mean, I remember seeing this run where he was
2051
01:39:42.149 --> 01:39:44.250
like serious and like would wear the suit and shit.
2052
01:39:44.289 --> 01:39:44.789
Yep.
2053
01:39:45.069 --> 01:39:47.649
Yeah, so I do remember that. But no, I never
2054
01:39:47.689 --> 01:39:49.090
saw him punch Shawn Michaels' wife.
2055
01:39:49.510 --> 01:39:52.590
Dude, yeah, it was a pretty fucking crazy deal. Yeah,
2056
01:39:52.630 --> 01:39:54.609
like that was a huge part of the angle. So yeah,
2057
01:39:55.090 --> 01:39:56.609
of course, Mike Adam Lee is the
one that makes
2058
01:39:56.630 --> 01:39:58.569
this a ladder match for the world title because Mike
2059
01:39:58.649 --> 01:40:00.270
Adam Lee is the best booker of all time.
2060
01:40:00.569 --> 01:40:03.850
Yeah, he remembered that WrestleMania 10 match and said, yeah,
2061
01:40:03.890 --> 01:40:04.989
you do that again if you want.
2062
01:40:06.810 --> 01:40:08.909
Can you just have Razor do it with you? Can
2063
01:40:08.949 --> 01:40:14.819
Razor come back and do this match? No. you're telling
2064
01:40:14.840 --> 01:40:16.760
me Scott Hall in 2008 could have came and worked
2065
01:40:16.800 --> 01:40:18.840
on Smackdown in front of 40,000 he's.
2066
01:40:18.680 --> 01:40:21.930
Got a TNA right coming up I think right around
2067
01:40:21.970 --> 01:40:24.510
this time too I think he got punked out because
2068
01:40:24.529 --> 01:40:25.250
he's a punk.
2069
01:40:25.430 --> 01:40:30.829
No is that here fuck it is isn't it yeah it.
2070
01:40:30.720 --> 01:40:32.239
Is 08 you're right that's when Kevin Nash was about
2071
01:40:32.260 --> 01:40:33.359
to retire.
2072
01:40:33.260 --> 01:40:38.039
Damn damn you're right man everyone goes to TNA that's
2073
01:40:38.119 --> 01:40:41.319
true yeah fuck me So yeah, so we get the
2074
01:40:41.340 --> 01:40:43.800
rundown for No Mercy. We have Batista versus JBL, a
2075
01:40:43.859 --> 01:40:47.939
number one contenders match. I'm assuming that's for Jericho's title?
2076
01:40:49.760 --> 01:40:50.880
Yeah, I think it has to be, right?
2077
01:40:50.899 --> 01:40:53.939
Because that's a Raw match, right? Yeah, right. We have
2078
01:40:53.979 --> 01:40:57.750
Undertaker versus Big Show in a big man match where
2079
01:40:57.829 --> 01:40:59.329
Big Show surely wins.
2080
01:40:59.350 --> 01:41:01.550
I mean, he always does.
2081
01:41:01.569 --> 01:41:05.050
Dude, wow, he does win. There it is. Oh my God,
2082
01:41:05.069 --> 01:41:06.069
he wins by TKO.
2083
01:41:06.770 --> 01:41:07.229
Nice.
2084
01:41:07.359 --> 01:41:07.689
Wow.
2085
01:41:07.739 --> 01:41:09.369
The best pure striker got put down.
2086
01:41:09.390 --> 01:41:18.770
Let's fucking go. That's fantastic. We have Rey Mysterio versus Kane.
2087
01:41:18.810 --> 01:41:21.729
If Rey loses, he has to unmask. There's no part
2088
01:41:21.770 --> 01:41:23.750
that if Kane loses, he has to do anything.
2089
01:41:24.149 --> 01:41:25.810
If Rey loses, I'll never watch again.
2090
01:41:25.829 --> 01:41:31.789
If Rey wins, I'll never watch again. I'm not watching.
2091
01:41:33.979 --> 01:41:36.859
We have Matt Hardy versus Mark Henry for the ECW Championship,
2092
01:41:36.920 --> 01:41:38.939
and Matt Hardy will be made to look strong tonight.
2093
01:41:39.840 --> 01:41:44.039
Matt Hardy versus Mark Henry with Tony Atlas. Of course.
2094
01:41:44.060 --> 01:41:46.640
I'm sorry. If it is sleeveless polo, I could never
2095
01:41:46.680 --> 01:41:49.039
fucking forget that. That's my bad. And we also have
2096
01:41:49.100
--> 01:41:53.579
Triple H versus Jeff Hardy, Jeff Harvey, for the WWE Championship,
2097
01:41:53.680 --> 01:41:55.560
which is the SmackDown title.
2098
01:41:56.319 --> 01:41:59.079
WWE Rewind is brought to you by Verizon Wireless.
2099
01:41:59.430 --> 01:42:01.100
Get them calls in and internet.
2100
01:42:01.479 --> 01:42:03.359
For some reason, the song they were using was Jamie
2101
01:42:03.420 --> 01:42:04.279
Noble's theme song.
2102
01:42:04.600 --> 01:42:10.789
It was. Like, he wasn't gone that long. Yeah. It's
2103
01:42:10.810 --> 01:42:12.470
like four years or something, maybe less.
2104
01:42:13.069 --> 01:42:16.810
Well, Jericho and Lance Cade faced off against DX last week.
2105
01:42:17.590 --> 01:42:20.520
And Cade and Jericho were going to beat down... I wrote,
2106
01:42:20.619 --> 01:42:22.619
Cade and Jericho were going to beat down Jericho.
2107
01:42:22.640 --> 01:42:27.800
And shock Cade's balls. I guess they did have a feud. Yeah,
2108
01:42:27.840 --> 01:42:33.840
that's true. Where Jericho said he was HBK. Yeah, Lance
2109
01:42:33.850 --> 01:42:36.840
Cade was like, he was being mentored by Jericho for
2110
01:42:36.859 --> 01:42:39.840
a bit here, and they're fucking up Triple H and HBK.
2111
01:42:40.239 --> 01:42:41.979
Jericho's going to hit HBK with the ladder, but Triple
2112
01:42:42.000 --> 01:42:44.890
H comes in with a sledgehammer. Jericho bails Triple H.
2113
01:42:45.199 --> 01:42:47.140
I mean, they fucking run a train on Lance Cade here.
2114
01:42:47.159 --> 01:42:48.880
They hit him with a sledgehammer, hit him with Switch
2115
01:42:48.920 --> 01:42:51.579
and Music, they pedigree him, and then next week Lance
2116
01:42:51.600 --> 01:42:56.609
Cade is released. Nah. Yep. Yep. Man, really?
2117
01:42:57.510 --> 01:42:57.859
Yep.
2118
01:42:57.939 --> 01:43:01.050
Why'd he cut his hair? He just looked like Chris Jericho.
2119
01:43:01.189 --> 01:43:03.090
That's fucking probably why. They said you gotta cut your
2120
01:43:03.130 --> 01:43:05.449
hair and look like Chris Jericho. Damn.
2121
01:43:06.350 --> 01:43:07.829
I thought Cade had an awesome look.
2122
01:43:08.350 --> 01:43:10.029
I like Cade. I think we talked about him pretty
2123
01:43:10.069 --> 01:43:11.829
recently too, but I like Lance Cade a lot. I
2124
01:43:11.869 --> 01:43:13.149
just think he had a lot of stuff going on
2125
01:43:13.210 --> 01:43:14.289
and they let him go.
2126
01:43:15.189 --> 01:43:18.149
Well, now it's time for the featured bout of the evening.
2127
01:43:18.529 --> 01:43:23.560
Matt Hardy, ECW champion versus Triple H, WWE champion versus
2128
01:43:23.619 --> 01:43:25.560
Chris Jericho, World Heavyweight Champion.
2129
01:43:25.970 --> 01:43:29.949
It's time to elevate ECW. To that next level.
2130
01:43:30.310 --> 01:43:32.029
Why has Matt Hardy even got the belt, man? This
2131
01:43:32.090 --> 01:43:33.229
is where the Giants roam.
2132
01:43:33.770 --> 01:43:36.310
Well, you know, Mark Henry's about
to get that motherfucker,
2133
01:43:36.350 --> 01:43:36.949
so that's cool.
2134
01:43:37.180 --> 01:43:39.079
Gotta get the Boogeyman strapped up over there.
2135
01:43:39.479 --> 01:43:41.880
I can't believe they didn't get Boogeyman one title in
2136
01:43:41.939 --> 01:43:42.600
his whole run.
2137
01:43:42.979 --> 01:43:46.890
They should have had, like, Mark Henry, Great Khali, and
2138
01:43:46.930 --> 01:43:49.670
all those people over there, like the big, huge guys.
2139
01:43:49.850 --> 01:43:52.050
The misfits. And then they should have had Jamie Noble
2140
01:43:52.090 --> 01:43:55.010
as the champion. His gimmick is he keeps finding a
2141
01:43:55.029 --> 01:43:57.569
way to beat these fucking guys. Like, that should have
2142
01:43:57.590 --> 01:43:59.989
been awesome. Dude, that would have been sick as fuck.
2143
01:44:00.010 --> 01:44:00.470
You're right.
2144
01:44:00.850 --> 01:44:03.210
Well, Matt Hardy comes out here first with the jackass
2145
01:44:03.250 --> 01:44:04.569
shirt on and the pencil.
2146
01:44:07.590 --> 01:44:11.170
Matt Hardy. I mean, like, he had no chance here, man.
2147
01:44:11.310 --> 01:44:13.310
That sucks. Nah. I mean, like.
2148
01:44:13.750 --> 01:44:15.300
He probably didn't even have to ask the finish of
2149
01:44:15.310 --> 01:44:17.149
this match. He probably just already knew what it was.
2150
01:44:17.180 --> 01:44:19.399
Yeah, no, I'm taking the pedigree. Like, that's what's happening.
2151
01:44:19.479 --> 01:44:22.220
I knew that. Like, whatever.
2152
01:44:22.760 --> 01:44:24.680
Jericho comes out here looking like Dane Cook.
2153
01:44:24.960 --> 01:44:27.159
Dude, I mean, I thought he looked good. I like
2154
01:44:27.199 --> 01:44:27.840
him in the trunks.
2155
01:44:28.840 --> 01:44:30.760
Yeah, the belt was so large on him, it looks
2156
01:44:30.800 --> 01:44:31.760
like he came out naked.
2157
01:44:34.520 --> 01:44:37.340
I mean, he does look a lot like Dane Cook.
2158
01:44:37.619 --> 01:44:40.500
He got the Dane Cook hair. That's fucking, that was
2159
01:44:40.520 --> 01:44:42.960
a classic here, bro. Better do a B & E.
2160
01:44:45.939 --> 01:44:56.710
Bacon and eggs? Nah. He's the Waffler. Waffle! Bro's the Waffler.
2161
01:44:57.229 --> 01:44:59.369
That's fucking awesome, by the way. Yeah, by the way,
2162
01:44:59.409 --> 01:45:02.989
everyone ever seen that movie? Of course they have. Sorry, guys. Also,
2163
01:45:03.029 --> 01:45:05.789
fuck Three Ninjas. Fuck Three Ninjas for real, guys. Hey.
2164
01:45:07.270 --> 01:45:10.289
Those movies look like fucking shit, guys. Like, I was
2165
01:45:10.310 --> 01:45:13.090
three years old. If Tom Tom's got a problem, do
2166
01:45:13.130 --> 01:45:15.409
something about it. Do something.
2167
01:45:16.170 --> 01:45:18.300
Well, Triple H and Matt Hardy start beating the fuck
2168
01:45:18.340 --> 01:45:22.619
out of Chris Jericho. Matt Hardy sends Jericho into the
2169
01:45:22.680 --> 01:45:24.199
corner here and then Triple
H hits him with a
2170
01:45:24.220 --> 01:45:25.260
DDT immediately.
2171
01:45:25.600 --> 01:45:27.739
Dude, gut kick DDT. And this is where I noticed,
2172
01:45:27.800 --> 01:45:30.369
I mean, Triple H is tame compared to Matt Hardy's
2173
01:45:30.390 --> 01:45:32.670
complexion is like night and day. Matt Hardy looks so
2174
01:45:32.750 --> 01:45:33.729
pale compared to this dude.
2175
01:45:34.130 --> 01:45:34.430
Yes.
2176
01:45:34.590 --> 01:45:35.170
Oh my God.
2177
01:45:35.210 --> 01:45:35.390
Yeah.
2178
01:45:35.409 --> 01:45:38.329
Triple H has like a bodybuilding competition tan.
2179
01:45:38.550 --> 01:45:39.390
Hot dog color.
2180
01:45:39.829 --> 01:45:41.930
Triple H hits a suplex on Jericho from the apron
2181
01:45:41.970 --> 01:45:44.609
into the ring for a two here. Matt Hardy takes
2182
01:45:44.649 --> 01:45:46.439
it to Triple H on the outside before they head
2183
01:45:46.479 --> 01:45:49.279
to the apron. Jericho hits a triangle dropkick and knocks
2184
01:45:49.300 --> 01:45:51.159
them both off the apron before we head to commercial.
2185
01:45:51.380 --> 01:45:54.000
That was pretty awesome. I like that. I thought Triple
2186
01:45:54.020 --> 01:45:55.859
H was going to duck, so Matt would have to
2187
01:45:55.899 --> 01:45:57.390
take it, but actually Triple H took it.
2188
01:45:57.619 --> 01:45:59.600
We come back and Matt Hardy looks for the twist
2189
01:45:59.649 --> 01:46:02.810
of fate, but Matt Hardy gets shit canned. Jericho is
2190
01:46:02.850 --> 01:46:05.130
taken to Triple H here until Triple H fires back
2191
01:46:05.149 --> 01:46:06.010
with a spine buster.
2192
01:46:06.369 --> 01:46:08.989
You were missing a big part of that commercial break comeback, James.
2193
01:46:09.069 --> 01:46:12.479
You can't ignore that Matt was on the second rope.
2194
01:46:12.850 --> 01:46:16.039
He went, oh, and did the elbow to the back
2195
01:46:16.079 --> 01:46:24.390
of the neck. God damn it. The classic Matt Hardy move. Yeah, dude.
2196
01:46:24.739 --> 01:46:27.470
Triple H did Spinebuster with Big Taunt. I always liked that.
2197
01:46:27.750 --> 01:46:30.399
Yeah, it's from the fucking video games. The Spinebuster with the.
2198
01:46:34.100 --> 01:46:36.319
Triple H tries for the pedigree here, but Matt Hardy
2199
01:46:36.390 --> 01:46:39.930
is climbing behind him. Jericho catapults Triple H in the corner,
2200
01:46:39.949 --> 01:46:41.609
and that crotches Matt Hardy on the ropes.
2201
01:46:41.989 --> 01:46:45.329
Dude, Jericho, sorry, Triple H loves taking a slingshot. He
2202
01:46:45.369 --> 01:46:46.390
is the king of taking that.
2203
01:46:46.630 --> 01:46:48.529
Yes, oh my God, he loves it, yeah, for sure.
2204
01:46:49.090 --> 01:46:51.550
So Chris Jericho rolls Triple H up for a two here,
2205
01:46:52.229 --> 01:46:55.180
and this somehow leads to a fucking Tower of Doom spot.
2206
01:46:55.560 --> 01:46:57.319
I could not believe that Triple H is involved with
2207
01:46:57.380 --> 01:47:01.220
a Tower of Doom powerbomb. TNA, TNA, TNA. Dude, yes,
2208
01:47:01.260 --> 01:47:03.020
like this had to be a Matt Hardy call, right?
2209
01:47:03.359 --> 01:47:05.409
That's probably Triple H. He's like, dude, they fucking just
2210
01:47:05.430 --> 01:47:09.310
did this crazy spot at TNA. It's Chris Saban, Petey Williams,
2211
01:47:09.329 --> 01:47:12.229
Sanjay Dutt, who looks nuts. The Motor City Machine Guns,
2212
01:47:12.329 --> 01:47:13.170
AJ and Joe.
2213
01:47:17.180 --> 01:47:19.380
Jericho goes for the Lion Saw here, but lands on
2214
01:47:19.399 --> 01:47:22.159
his feet and jams his leg. Triple H goes for
2215
01:47:22.180 --> 01:47:24.199
the Figure Four, but gets pushed into Matt Hardy on
2216
01:47:24.220 --> 01:47:27.470
the apron. Jericho locks in the walls of Jericho on
2217
01:47:27.510 --> 01:47:30.850
Triple H, but Triple H powers up off the ground
2218
01:47:30.909 --> 01:47:32.329
and starts climbing towards the ropes.
2219
01:47:32.750 --> 01:47:36.729
He powers. He's struggling. He's struggling. And Jericho's, you know,
2220
01:47:36.750 --> 01:47:39.489
trying to drag him back. And Matt Hardy gets in.
2221
01:47:39.890 --> 01:47:41.229
So Jericho has to stop it because it's time to
2222
01:47:41.270 --> 01:47:42.250
put him in the walls instead.
2223
01:47:42.470 --> 01:47:45.710
Yeah, Matt Hardy runs in, instantly gets locked into the walls,
2224
01:47:45.750 --> 01:47:48.029
but Matt Hardy's able to roll through into a flash
2225
01:47:48.069 --> 01:47:48.810
pin for a two.
2226
01:47:49.210 --> 01:47:50.229
I mean, if he was going to win, it would
2227
01:47:50.260 --> 01:47:52.670
have been there. No way. Ha ha ha!
2228
01:47:55.520 --> 01:47:57.909
Jericho goes for the bulldog here, but Hardy pushes him
2229
01:47:57.930 --> 01:47:59.949
into the buckle and hits his own bulldog for a two.
2230
01:47:59.970 --> 01:48:02.350
Yeah, a little clothesline bulldog combo. I like that.
2231
01:48:02.750 --> 01:48:05.350
Jericho goes for the code breaker, but Hardy pushes him down.
2232
01:48:06.069 --> 01:48:08.880
You can just do that. That was a super cool counter. Yeah,
2233
01:48:08.899 --> 01:48:10.960
like I don't even remember ever seeing that. He just
2234
01:48:11.060 --> 01:48:12.079
shoved him to the floor.
2235
01:48:12.680 --> 01:48:14.939
Matt Hardy hits the side effect here, but Triple H
2236
01:48:15.000 --> 01:48:17.180
runs in and hits the pedigree on Matt Hardy and
2237
01:48:17.239 --> 01:48:17.939
pins him and wins.
2238
01:48:17.979 --> 01:48:18.460
Fuck you, man.
2239
01:48:18.479 --> 01:48:18.779
Damn it!
2240
01:48:22.119 --> 01:48:24.100
That's every online match i've ever.
2241
01:48:23.899 --> 01:48:27.569
Seen ever man dude that sucks man that is fucking
2242
01:48:27.670 --> 01:48:29.489
cheese man.
2243
01:48:29.409 --> 01:48:32.489
Well after the bell here uh chris jericho comes in
2244
01:48:32.529 --> 01:48:33.729
and hits triple h with a code.
2245
01:48:33.569 -->
01:48:36.079
Breaker Looks good too. I mean, he lays Triple H
2246
01:48:36.119 --> 01:48:38.520
out and he goes outside to grab a ladder. Everything
2247
01:48:38.539 --> 01:48:40.920
that happens here is insane. I need that to be known.
2248
01:48:41.279 --> 01:48:43.300
I mean, this is like one of the craziest endings
2249
01:48:43.359 --> 01:48:44.100
I could even recall.
2250
01:48:44.119 --> 01:48:45.260
Like if you asked me at the.
2251
01:48:45.220 --> 01:48:47.300
Beginning of the episode, what is the final shot of
2252
01:48:47.340 --> 01:48:49.100
this debut episode on my network TV?
2253
01:48:49.199 --> 01:48:52.399
I would have never, ever guessed this. No, dude, this
2254
01:48:52.479 --> 01:48:56.000
is fucking insane. So Jericho has a ladder. He runs
2255
01:48:56.039 --> 01:48:58.560
it into Matt's head and he puts Matt inside of
2256
01:48:58.600 --> 01:49:00.659
the ladder and he's going to slam it on him.
2257
01:49:00.989 --> 01:49:04.090
SVR style. But the man that James has been wanting
2258
01:49:04.109 --> 01:49:07.229
to talk about this whole match, Jeff Hardy. Jeff Hardy?
2259
01:49:07.670 --> 01:49:11.770
Jeff Hardy makes the save. He's here. He lines Jericho
2260
01:49:11.829 --> 01:49:14.149
over the top rope to the floor. And he checks
2261
01:49:14.229 --> 01:49:17.689
on Matt. And Triple H turns Jeff around. And Jeff
2262
01:49:17.720 --> 01:49:19.859
hits him with a big twist of fate. Big fire up.
2263
01:49:19.880 --> 01:49:23.100
The crowd's like, oh, shit. Lays him out? But that's
2264
01:49:23.140 --> 01:49:26.359
not it. Jeff points to the ladder. He's going to
2265
01:49:26.399 --> 01:49:28.840
do some shit off the ladder to Triple H before
2266
01:49:28.859 --> 01:49:30.729
the pay-per-view? Shooting star 450.
2267
01:49:30.720 --> 01:49:30.920
Yeah.
2268
01:49:33.409 --> 01:49:34.789
He could do it too if he wanted to. I
2269
01:49:34.810 --> 01:49:37.569
bet he could figure it out. So Jeff climbs the ladder.
2270
01:49:38.109 --> 01:49:41.250
And he's setting up. He climbs it. He's like on the...
2271
01:49:41.109 --> 01:49:44.210
Maybe second down from the top rung. He's firing up
2272
01:49:44.229 --> 01:49:47.260
the crowd. And then Jeff looks off to the side.
2273
01:49:47.270 --> 01:49:52.560
Because somebody's running in. And by God... It's top guy time.
2274
01:49:52.899 --> 01:49:56.600
Vladimir Kozlov is here. He gets in the ring. Jeff
2275
01:49:56.720 --> 01:50:00.100
jumps off the ladder. Kozlov headbutts him out of the air.
2276
01:50:00.460 --> 01:50:03.800
That man is undefeated. The undefeated Kozlov is here. Oh
2277
01:50:04.380 --> 01:50:08.000
my God. And what's this? Slop drop to triple A's.
2278
01:50:10.479 --> 01:50:12.119
Triple H been hit with that a few times.
2279
01:50:13.380 --> 01:50:16.399
Yeah, PTSD is it all? No, not again. He said
2280
01:50:16.420 --> 01:50:19.939
some crazy too. He does like power slam into stinger,
2281
01:50:20.359 --> 01:50:23.939
scorpion death drop position into slob drop. What a bad
2282
01:50:24.039 --> 01:50:26.779
fucking finish for this guy. He changes it, right? Like
2283
01:50:26.819 --> 01:50:29.770
there's no way he keeps this. He beat Undertaker with
2284
01:50:29.810 --> 01:50:32.810
a power slam. Yeah, that's right. He beat him clean too. Yeah,
2285
01:50:33.029 --> 01:50:35.270
holy shit. Wow, I cannot.
2286
01:50:34.989 --> 01:50:36.630
Believe they didn't just want to give this guy like
2287
01:50:36.689 --> 01:50:41.430
a fucking fuck you power bomb or something. Batista's not
2288
01:50:41.449 --> 01:50:42.670
even on this show right now.
2289
01:50:43.130 --> 01:50:46.000
Right. Yeah, you're right. He could have did, I mean, anything.
2290
01:50:46.020 --> 01:50:49.640
The Taker's doing, like, the Tombstone shit, right?
2291
01:50:50.020 --> 01:50:50.680
Yeah, right.
2292
01:50:51.079 --> 01:50:54.220
What if he just did Kinsuke Sasaki's, like, one-arm powerbomb?
2293
01:50:54.560 --> 01:50:58.750
Yeah, right. Well, Santino's doing that. Yeah, he did do it. Yeah,
2294
01:50:58.789 --> 01:51:01.229
you're right. But yeah, wow.
2295
01:51:01.529 --> 01:51:04.789
If I could go back in time, yeah, I would
2296
01:51:04.810 --> 01:51:07.439
tell Kozlov, let's do the Kinsuke Sasaki move.
2297
01:51:07.819 --> 01:51:10.199
Oh, my God. That would have changed his career. Let's
2298
01:51:10.239 --> 01:51:13.210
make some fucking money, man. Well, Kozlov fucking hits a
2299
01:51:13.229 --> 01:51:15.970
headbutt out of the air. Slop drop on Triple H.
2300
01:51:16.010 --> 01:51:19.130
The crowd chants USA. Kozlov's music hits because he's the
2301
01:51:19.149 --> 01:51:21.310
top guy. And the show goes off the air with
2302
01:51:21.350 --> 01:51:23.619
Kozlov standing tall. Holy fuck.
2303
01:51:23.859 --> 01:51:27.859
The My Network TV debut is with Vladimir Kozlov standing
2304
01:51:27.920 --> 01:51:31.699
tall over Jeff Hardy, Triple H, and Chris Jericho.
2305
01:51:32.060 --> 01:51:35.909
And Matt Hardy. I like Kozlov, but it just feels
2306
01:51:35.979 --> 01:51:39.380
crazy looking back at this. That's fucking insane. This guy
2307
01:51:39.600 --> 01:51:43.159
super does not do anything else. He doesn't do anything.
2308
01:51:43.619 --> 01:51:46.000
You can't say they didn't try something with this guy, though.
2309
01:51:46.020 --> 01:51:49.130
Oh, sure. I mean, what a way to debut on
2310
01:51:49.189 --> 01:51:51.250
