- What a crazy month for Vince McMahon. The XFL is tanking and NBC wants out of the deal, Jerry Lawler walked out, ECW files for bankruptcy, Paul Heyman needs a job, Vince has a meltdown on HBO, he acquires WCW, and oh by the way he's about to put on the biggest WrestleMania ever! Bruce and Conrad dig into all of these moving parts going on behind the scenes before what will be the most financially successful WrestleMania ever up until that point setting records in nearly every category. The show would feature a crazy hardcore match people remember to this day, the crazy McMahon family story, an unreal match between Benoit and Angle, perhaps one of the silliest battle royals in WWE history, the tag team match that created a highlight reel by itself and set the standard for TLCs to come, and a match between the two biggest icons in the business at the time with an ending that changed everything.

JR Blanton you da man!!
thank you!
+1
We deserve you as our lord
Appreciate it!
Steve Austin's work as a heel is incredibly underrated. He was absolutely brilliant as a heel. BRILLIANT! I would love to see a show on Austin 2000-2002 to fully cover that last run
Austin as a heel in WCW and ecw was very entertaining IMO
It made for TV gold. The heel run might have bombed, but the character stuff was absolute class.
By that point in time, Austin was soo over as a baby face that when was switched heel everyone saw right throught it. To me, he didnt need to turn heel, he tried everything he could to draw heat but no one wanted to boo him
His work as a heel was great... but not believable. Austin was wayyyy to likable to boo. He got “what” over for god sakes
@Matthew Alkman It's called 'having an opinion', ya fuckin Nazi.
Conrad said this Mania had 'the longest main event ever.' I guess he forgot about Bret and Shawn at WM12.
Even the ME of WrestleMania 23 Cena vs Shawn was the same or 1 Minute longer
I agree, the "my way" music video with my fave of all time Austin vs Rock is hands down the BEST music video for a match of all time. No way to do it justice other than to watch and stare at it's greatness over and over...
Goosebumps everytime.
instaBlaster
I actually just watched this match and I agree the vignette was incredible.
My favorite wrestlmania I'm hyped for this one!
I went to this WM....it was hand down the best Mania. Glad that a lot of fans put WM17 as their top Mania. And it was in my home town🤘
Liar liar 🤥 pants on fire 🔥
Hustle town!🤘
I was there. Till this day, one of my best memories of the Astrodome. And I was fortunate to even play games on Astrodome field! But X7 was magical. TLC match was insane!!! I just rewatched on NetworkX think it’s understated how great Paul Heyman did commentary on TLC. His OH MY GOD!!!!! Sent chills down my spine.
Hey Conrad, love the podcast. You guys got to do a Rick The Model Martel or Bam Bam episode
There is a great Rick Martel shoot on here. I highly recommend.
Damn! Linda be looking like the Frankenstein Monster in a bad wig! lol
The end of the attitude era one of the best wrestlemanias ever!!!
Except for that ending
@@danielescalera6638 I didn't mind the ending because I enjoyed the 2001 heel austin a lot of people don't but I loved his work in 2001 thought he was great
The ending doesn’t really affect me because I wasn’t a fan in 2001, so I don’t really KNOW how I would’ve felt had I been watching then. Austin / rock is the best match I’ve ever seen and the finish was excellent. It took 17 chair shots from Austin to finally be able to pin the rock for the title. Shaking Vince’s hand at the end meant nothing cus he could’ve decided to give him the stunner the next night on raw and nobody would’ve even thought of it.
The Attitude era ended after Wrestlemania X8, not here. When Vince declared the NWO dead was when and where the Attitude era was officially over. That was also when the Ruthless Aggression era officially started. You don't remember the promo Vince cut on RAW?
@@pikkon899 every one has there own opinions on when the attitude era ended I hear what your saying but I respectfully disagree but your entitled to your own opinion but i say the attitude era ended on this night not only because of the end of the monday night wars was following the week but autumn turned heel and he never imo went back to that stone cold of 97 to 2000 after his heel turn he was stone cold but not with that same intensity and attitude no pun intended
Brother Love should have won the battle royal.
Agreed.
Is Brother Love related to Dude Love?
The gobbledegooker should of won.😂
@@howdyni Yeah, they where in a tag team called the golden lovers.
"Well, you know"...;)
This is awesome, in depth coverage of mine and many’s favorite Wrestlemania of all time. From someone as Bruce Prichard, great job from Conrad as well! Thanks guys!
Thank u Conrad for all the podcasts your responsible for I can't keep up.. It's great✊
1:05:55 The Austin/Triple H partnership didn't work because only months earlier, Triple H had been revealed as the guy who almost ended Austin's career. For that reason, nobody bought into a teaming of the two, no matter how hard they tried.
I thought owen Hart was the one that almost ended austin's career
Storyline wise. Rikishi hit Austin with the car but HHH was revealed to have orchestrated the entire plot.
My mom bought me this mania on vhs from blockbuster. I still own it
Such a significant show for so many reasons. Great job as always guys.
Greatest Show Ever. My seventeenth birthday on the day of the greatest U.S. wrestling PPV ever: the seventeenth WM. We are forever linked.
Ahmed Johnson episode?!
PS I will never go away haha
I'm voting for your uncle Bernie next year!
@@snoopyfod1807 good ol uncle Bernie... more like Bernie Mac... Being a black man and all hahaha. Good googly moogly haha
Btw, it was an honor to have one of my questions read on the show! After I posted I thought maybe I was off a year or two about Bret and WWE negotiating, but I sworn I've heard rumors before of Bret originally being asked to referee in the Vince/Shane match. Thanks for answering the question guys. Best podcast around!
Angle v Benoit is my favorite match from this card
Bruce is a company man through and through. Hard to take a lot of what he says as factual.
not every worker on the roster should be on the mania card, I totally agree with Bruce, just look at the mania cards of today, everyone is on them, it waters the product down and makes WrestleMania less prestigious! I pray that Bruce can help change this issue
Especially when this year’s mania might have the most matches and also be the longest mania ever, it’s just not needed.
#NickNil WrestleMania will never again be what it once was because it's not their biggest money maker anymore it's the Saudi show now.
Basically you're referring to every wrestlemania from wrestlemania 22 onwards
You must not have seen early wrestlemania cards ,matches on them that had no right to be ,just to yet them on the card
They did not talk about Eddie Guerreo falling out of the ring :(
Thanks guys. Rock vs Hogan might be my favorite match of all time.
Give us Hulk Hogan from 2002 to 2006
In a span of a week Vince bought WCW and Austin turned heel by siding with McMahon. And the business has been in the shitter ever since.
@@joere-uploader5766 Working with Taker and Kane was a mistake right off the bat, but doing programs with the Hardyz and Jericho/Benoit was brilliant. The latter especially was big money. Ultimately, it was Angle and RVD who stepped up to Austin's level so at least they made them a big deal for a while. Booker T was also an option.
Relax Cornette. Remember your blood pressure.
I personally have had signs confiscated at wwf shows during that time period so they didn’t show up on tv. Bruce saying it didn’t happen, not true. Happened to me. That being said, I’m a huge Bruce fan.
One of my favorite Wrestlemania events and one of the best. I remember all the promotion Mattress Mac put behind it. It was on every channel and posted on trucks and billboards throughout the city. Plus, there was so much to the event all week long it seemed. As awesome as this PPV was, the stories of everything leading up to and around the event are priceless.
Greatest Mania every and it’s not even close!
This is the best one all-time!!!!! Period!!!!!!
The greatest WM, the greatest WM main event, the end of the Attitude Era
21.00, It's there, you got it, use it. I swore that was gonna be a bluechew plug.
Ufc and boxing have weight divisions, so if a heavy weight takes time off and gets under 250 now he's a cruiserweight..and if Ray Mysterio takes 2 years off to work out and gets over 235...now he's a heavyweight
I haven't looked forward to a Friday this much in a very long time. You gentlemen have done just that with this episode. My favorite WrestleMania of all time. Thank you.
I love Matress Mac, been seeing him on tv since I could remember 💯
Conrad had a fair opinion on Rock vs Austin II. It was a great show from top to bottom. This wrestlemania is in my top 5. It goes 3, 17, 10, 6, and 2. What was insane is that those men that bitched about not being on mania ended up being on heat. X-Factor defeated Grand Master Sexay and Steve Blackman on Heat. I wished they would have turned Steve before mania and have him be that desperate to sell his soul to Mr. McMahon. They should have done a segment where Steve went to Vince and beg for a no disqualifcation match cause he knows he cant beat The Rock. Also, Dave was so full of shit about Chyna vs Ivory. It was designed to be a 1 sided squash. Chyna nearly had her career ended thanks to Ivory. She came back and become the WWF Women's Champion. Angle vs Benoit best non-title match to be at mania. This told a great story from top to bottom. This card was that damn good it makes sense why this card broke a million buys.
They should've kept that comatose Linda MacMahon gimmick going indefinitely through the years; as a Vince wheelbound sidekick. Would've ensured some freakish longterm heat.
Nah
1:11:20 Seriously Conrad, WHY EVEN BOTHER dragging the brief WCW mention through the mud? I seriously doubt most fans questioned why the WCW wrestlers were in the sky box, especially with the Shane/Vince match about to take place.
Mania X-seven is the 🐐 of wrestling shows. Sorry Conrad.
Facts!!!
There is no argument against this.
Exactly
Idk, what about 10?
@@FIXTREME I dont think there is any mania which lives up to this one, either from a purely business/financial point of view or from a performance in the ring.
There was one bad match and one joke/gimmick match. There is another which is ok, the hardcore match, and the rest are very good (Jericho regal), excellent (hunter taker), amazing (angle benoit) and maybe amongst the best, ( top 10) of all time, i.e. Austin Rock, and the TLC match. As they said the Austin rock match was literally a 2 or three year build up as these two insane crowd favourites finally squared off again, the pinnacle of the most successful era in pro wrestling history and the actual performance in the ring was too notch too to match it
I think the best Test match was with Shane at Summerslam 99.
I consider this the best wrestling show to ever take place, let alone the best Wrestlemania.
It's the peak of the business.
I don't know how many people here are aware of the old sci-fi/horror soap opera, Dark Shadows, but I think that show has a lot in common with X-7 and what resulted. Dark Shadows was a red-hot show in the late 60's, thanks to a vampire anti-hero character named Barnabas Collins. He was always one step ahead of the villains on the show and always triumphed in the stories on the show. The audience loved the character. He was the ultimate hero. Then they did a storyline where he came under the spell of some bad villain characters called the Leviathins and now his character was under their control and he was just a straight up villain and dumb. This storyline was the beginning of the end of the show, because audiences didn't like this portrayal of the Barnabas character. Ratings dropped big time and the show never recovered. This storyline took place in the spring/summer of 1970. By April of 1971, the show had been canceled.
I see that very similar to Austin turning heel here at Wrestlemania X-Seven. The WWE was at it's peak, the crowd still loved Austin no matter what, and wrestling fans just didn't want him to be a heel. They didn't want to boo him and cheer for others. They weren't sick of him yet. WWE does the heel turn and tries to make him the villains against other babyfaces, and ratings start to plummet, and WWE has never been red hot in the ratings or mainstream pop culture since. There's a lot of other factors too. WCW and ECW going out of business. The Rock basically leaving the wrestling business full time soon after. Maybe the brand split. WWE moving away from USA to TNN which instantly cut like a 1/3 of their audience because TNN at the time was a much smaller network. The Invasion storyline which was just very disappointing because the big stars from WCW didn't come and weren't part of it as well as the WCW guys being pushed as non-threats, etc. But I think the biggest factor was Austin's heel turn. People just weren't sick of him yet and didn't want to boo him. And I think that turned audiences off. Austin and McMahon shaking hands really did symbolize the end of the Attitude Era, and WWE has never been the same since. Or wrestling for that matter.
I didn't care about the heel turn at all that night watching it, I was just delighted to see Stone Cold win the title.
Today's date as i'm typing this comment is 8/5/2019. Ever since this show started iv'e been waiting for them to talk about WM X-Seven. Today, 8/5/2019, i was scrolling through RUclips and i stumbled up on THIS video. HOW THE FUCK DID I MISS THIS AND NOT KNOW THEY FINALLY TALKED ABOUT X-SEVEN??? This video was posted on March 29th 2019, how did i miss this???
Either way i'm about to listen to this episode right now. By the way, WM X-SEVEN is the greatest PPV of all-time.
I watched it live, lived in Houston, had a friend from school who went and we talked about X-Seven all day at school with hoarse voices the following day.
This wrestlemania is not overrated. It’s still the best one to this day.
Had the perfect combination of everything in the business - big spots (TLC), comedy (gimmick battle royal) and wrestling (Austin/ rock)
Have you guys ever done Mania 14? That's my personal favorite!
They have NOT and I think everybody wants WM14 topic. We do have the PPVs leading up to it from SS97 - NWO IYH 98... Hopefully we will get in depth WM14 before the podcast is over.
They did on their spin off series in the wwe network
It was on a poll once last year but lost. That was one of two things I really wanted them to cover from 1998 last year and it didn't win. I was so disappointed by that.
14 was a great mania. That mixed tag team match was the show stealer in my book
They did it on the something else to wrestle on the network.
About that HHH vs Mike Tyson thing....HHH himself mentioned that in a WWE magazine.
Another example of the son in law riding Stone Cold's coattails.
I don't want to be a dick, but could I suggest a chapter thingy to each talking point. I especially loved the McMahon v McMahon match from Mania 17!
Was a great match from 2 non wrestlers had everything Trish slap linda standing Stephanie Trish fight foley ref great ending great match & true storytelling
They should make a mandate that every title match at Mania go 10 minutes minimum.
why? lol if the story doesnt need it. dont do it
MahdiRanger make the match mean something. There’s a title on the line, make a good story out of it.
Jacques Malan Hell yeah! Brock and Goldberg would be the exemption. Two explosive beasts going at it, you know that won’t last long.
@@matsong5134 not every title match needs that long. Its all about story. Its a prop title, if the story is behind it sure, if not a d lack luster intrest, dont. Thats the issue today with wrestling, matches are too long for no reason. Just moves and going thru motions.
Best memory of the 9th grade...."GOD ALMIGHTY GOD ALMIGHTY....WHAT THE HELL IS THIS!"
IT'S A NEW CHAMPION
The greatest wrestling PPV ever.
@Jacques Malan she pooted
I won't tickets on the radio to Wrestlemania X-Seven and me and my ex girlfriend went. They gave us tickets to Axxes and everything.. We were 20 rows back. You can see me when taker and trips go in the crowd. It was an amazing experience. I do feel somewhat letdown by this episode though they seemed to just barely discuss each match. They didn't even mention spike, Lita or rhino in the TLC 2 match.. No backstage info. This was a Supreme letdown and the episode I was looking forward to the MOST. Happy for Bruce but I've lost faith in STW
They also spent an hour, or more talking about shit that's got nothing to do with X-7!!!!
I’m watching the opening of this Mania and they have what seems to be a homeless couple watching wrestlemania on a tube tv in their car 😂😂😂 different times
I don’t understand Conrad’s issue with WM-17
He always goes out of his way to belittle it but won’t say what WM was better
The Linda spot is proof that a good story gets people going more than flippy shit.
Badstreet, Atlanta GA
For some reason I still catch myself humming along to that song all these years later
Why would WWE turn Austin heel just when the Rock was going to Hollywood? It made no sense. Plus, Austin had just returned from injury after a year off. Austin should have fought HHH for the title at the next ppv.
Yeah and the forced Undertaker and Kane into top babyface roles. Which didn't work.
What about turning hhh face against austin? They already feuded though from survivors series to no way out
@@061romell HHH is a natural heel. Turning Austin heel was simply impossible. It's like Dusty Rhodes attempting to turn the Road Warriors heel in 1988. It didn't work.
@Trzn Exactly
They should have turned him back face for Invasion, the pop he got when "the old Stone Cold" came back was one of the loudest reactions the WWE ever had. They should have aborted the heel plan right then and there.
fell in love with wrestling all over again after this Mania
Big Boss Man not involved because of new upcoming character...? Never remember hearing about that. Anybody any inside?
Yes. He was gonna come back as a firefighter. He switched careers
Been waiting on this one, my favorite wrestlemania ever by far.
We need a Jeff Hardy episode. Not the Hardy’s, just Jeff. Because the fact that he’s still walking, let alone wrestling (and still taking crazy bumps) is amazing. Not to mention one of the most over guys for about 20 years.
Good pick I haven't thought of a Jeff episode
He hasn’t taken a crazy bump in a while . Maybe the hell in a cell against Randy through the table ? Or maybe against nakamura when he swantonned the apron that’s about it.
Bear 7453 listen to what your saying though.. those bumps (which were nuts) combined with the 20 years of bat shit crazy things he’s done. One of the all time GOATs
I'll never accept the excuse that all the big WCW stars weren't brought in because it would've cost too much to buy out their contracts. You're telling me, Vince McMahon didn't have the money to bring in Hogan/Hall/Nash/Goldberg/Sting etc to book the hottest, most star studded, most profitable angle in wrestling history, sure it would've cost a lot but immediately would've have seen a return on your investment in ticket sales, merchandise (t-shirts, action figures, VHS and DVD's), PPV sales and in the long run would've easily made a profit. I'd bet the XFL, WWF New York and WWE Studios all cost as much if not more to kick start and would've been a lot harder to turn a profit out of those business ventures, 3 businesses (Pro football, Club/restaurant and movies) that WWF had no experience in running and ultimately failed but the hottest wrestling angle in the history of the business falls at your feet and it's too expensive to invest in, especially considering it cost so little to buy WCW out in the end. It just doesn't make sense. If I had to bet, I'd guess that Vince's ego saw WCW stars as nothing compared to his WWF stars and that was compounded by every wrestler, agent and whoever else had a job being in his ear turning him off the idea so they didn't have a threat to their own job and position in the company
Yea but then you gotta take into account that you gotta give the wwf guys raises if you’re paying those 5-10 guys 1-3+ million
One simple Stunner could've changed the whole game...
Why did my poop come out 2 different shades of brown? and in the shape of a baseball? I had to flush 3 times for it to break apart.
Should have turned Rock heel with the Hollywood gimmick here instead of Steve
Danny Todd agreed but rock was still a huge draw
Rock was leaving for 4 months to shoot The Scorpion King. This was the only outcome that made sense short of Austin winning cleanly as a babyface which would've hurt The Rock and his fanbase since he had always lost to him pretty cleanly.
He lost to him anyway, then had the blowoff with Rock winning in Austin's last match.
Losing a wrestling match doesn't hurt your drawing power in a movie. That's retarded
I loved heel Austin the months following this. The segments with Kurt and Vince were pure comedy. Had some good stuff with Jericho and Benoit. Hell if not for this version we wouldn't still be screaming WHAT 18 year's later.
@@joere-uploader5766 it was cool back then but I hardly ever notice when they do it now.
Just jumped on board in subscribing. Love the chemistry between Bruce and Conrad.
What took u so long u mark !!
You can't boo the hometown guy, you still gotta live there.
In retrospect, if they really wanted to turn Austin heel (which IMHO was a terrible idea regardless), having him lose the title match in front of his hometown crowd at WM would have provided great motivation for a more gradual and logical shift in his character.
He could not lose in front of that crowd.
@@rackballjones6585 That;s the entire point. Losing at the big event in front of that crowd would have been a shocking, seismic event, and one that would have provided credible motivation for Austin to do almost anything afterwards.
What a terrible opinion and comment. Jesus christ.
Who's here from Grilling JR?! BTW always been a fan of STW
I watched that from this lol. Although I do prefer the Bruce Prichard perspective.
The epitome of PPVs.
Is this when austin n vkm joined forces?
Yes, yes it is
They were asking how much Austin was cheered due to the show being in Texas? Hell, most of the crowd was from other countries.
I think that is a more recent trend … At least to the extent you are thinking of.
@@mr.onethirtyeight5088 Even so, he does have a point in terms of the crowd being varied. Not unusual to have people hopping from a different state for one of the big 4 PPVs, especially a Wrestlemania as stacked and hyped like this.
Very difficult for Rocky fans to accept that Austin was always bigger.
Mac may be ONLY a local businessman but hes got DEEEEP pockets
Right Conrad didn’t put any respect on his name
YESSS! always wanted to hear Bruce's take on his ultimate BatmanVsSuperman-like showdown with Corny in the corner! cannot wait.
Mania x7 is best mania
This show was SENSATIONAL - the qualities of these Wrestlemania(s) - during this era - were the best, both creatively and financially…
…for WWE
Conrad need to get over the invasion, good grief!
While we're at it, he needs to get over ECW as well.
It's weird about Kirchner not being in the battle royal. As it was advertised as 20 men, but only had 19 in the actual match. As for the Kirchner, the answer most accept is that he was wrestling as Leatherface in japan at the time.
Still remember my older brother joking about Earthquake in that match. That he had lost so much weight at the time that he went from Earthquake to just being Quake(partly due to the ring gear saying Quake too).
I'm sure Conrad knows it and it was just a mistake, but 18 was in Toronto, not Montreal.
I just realized, this was 5 months before our whole world changed in America...Wrestlemania 17 was 5 months before 9/11 and America changed forever. This Mania was the last time American had true prosperity.
Everything went downhill after 2001. Wrestling tanked, America got stuck in the Middle East, the rise of the internet and (anti)social media, our over dependence on cell phones and tech...Although we are more connected through technology, as a society it seems like we are more divided now than ever. 9/11 was the tipping point.
Judging a whole show based off the ending is bullshit to me the main event is a classic. Those who hate the heel turn please tell me what else was there for him to do? Winning the title in a beer bash? U seen it at 14 and 15 and probably would’ve saw it at 2000. Tht story was told already. Ppl say heel Austin is the cause for the decline. No. What caused it was him not having a top face to work with. If the Rock stayed business doesn’t go down. This ep was low key a let down though y’all really didn’t say much.
Agreed on all counts. Austin in 2001 was amazing and unfortunately after Mania he had nobody to work with. Not his fault and he ended up elevating Angle, RVD, and eventually Jericho.
They could do a attitude era gimmick battle royal now. Goldust, godfather, blue meanie, gangrel, Val Venus. List goes on and on
Ok, so Brett Hart somehow beats a guy triple his size if that makes since. Next we got, a cruiserweight Battle Royal, konan vs. Dean Malinko in a submission only match, and Mr. Perfect vs. the British Bulldawg in a no DQ match. That should buy us some time..
I never understood why they made Stone Cold the leader of the WCW team
Utterly Fn phenomenal!!!!!!!!!
"Kurt was an animal. Even if he got hurt he just kept going."
*takes 50 pain pills a day
I got mad when I first read this because I'm a huge Kurt fan, but fuck, the truth hurts 😢😢
He did have a broken neck and at points he said he list feeling in his arms I don’t agree with pills but we can’t comprehend kurt pain
The point is he shouldn't have been working at all.
Is it bad that I can’t tell if it’s Bruce’s face on Chyna or not?
I love Bruce getting real on Jeff Bagwell.
"He's shitting on guys"
He was shitting on guys. Most of those guys got great reactions in their prime. Go back and watch that battle royal. Doink The Clown got one of the best reactions from the crowd and they boo'd Kamala out of the building when he eliminated Doink. Sgt Slaughter also got a great reaction and he got another pop from the crowd when he eliminated Kamala. The dirt sheet writers are complete tools.
I hope to hear WrestleMania 19 soon from this Podcast that’s my favorite one because of The Rock Vs. Austin Match is one of my favorites. Great psychology and facial expressions in that match!
Mr.Malik they’ve already done it. over a year ago
I was there love it!!! 04/01/2001
Lies just stop 🛑
I used to watch channel 54 for the ppv with my grandfather where the tv was scrambled and it was only audio, sometimes you could catch a glimpse of something. I remember i fell asleep woke up around 4 to jr screaming “why steve why” and I couldn’t wait to find out what happened
I went to one of the worst Wrestlemania of all time. ( Top 5) 2010 Glendale , Az. There was one good match on the card . The Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels.
Conrad you should talk about what John Oliver said about the wwe last Sunday..i want to hear your thoughts as well as Bruces's thoughts on what he has said about the WWE
Great mania. However, from a business perspective it was a strange decision to turn Austin, given that Rock is going to be gone for six months after this would have liked more questioning about this.
I just recently watched last week and that main even of Austin/ rock is in my opinion the greatest professional wrestling match that I have ever seen. Even better than Shawn/ taker at 25
Bear 7453 agree!! The finish of that match was spine tingling. That crowd was going fucking nuts!! Amazing
David Bixenspan is almost as terrible as Brocklesnar guy.
ARE THEY GOING TO TALK ABOUT EDDIE GUERREO FALLING OUT OF THE RING!?!?
I agree i hated the finish as well, it made austin look weak, needing help from vince to win was lame!
Reignman96 I see it differently. I thought it was awesome that he portrayed and showed that he would do ANYTHING to win that Title. Absolutely anything. By hook or crook. Put the title over huge as well.
