I really hope Jim and Brian do a watch along of that match from wrestlemania 25 one day. Easily the best match in the history of the event in my opinion in terms of in ring work.
Shawn being Mr Wrestlemania wasn’t based on his win / loss record, it was based on him stealing the show & having the match of the night at Wrestlemania. His could lose at WM and still look great or put on a great match in general. That’s exactly what happened at Wrestlemania 25
Let’s remember Meltzer said that the WM25 match between Michaels vs Undertaker was predictable. The greatest Wrestlemania match to ever happen he called predictable. But none of Moxley, Jericho, and the Young Fucks aren’t.

Shawn Michaels super kick/sweet chin music was absolutely phenomenal in Smackdown Here Comes the Pain, Raw Vs. Smackdown 2007 and Raw Vs. Smackdown 2008.
I was lucky to see Micheal’s and taker fight in a house show in November 1997 in Greensboro a week after Montreal and it was epic! Unfortunately no fan cam footage has ever been released of it but god it was epic
I remember seeing footage of taker saying he and Shawn did go out there with a point to prove because of their placement on the card. Think it was in his retirement wwe documentary
I know people put over the Wrestlemania matches as their best together but, for my money the HIAC match between Shawn and Taker was their best match together.
Was a damn good match for sure, first HIAC, introducing Kane etc, but the Mania 25 match was better overall. The story and the build up was great and the match was even better. The false finishes, the fact you legit thought HBK might win. Both in their mid 40’s which made it even more impressive. That was the best overall wrestling match in Mania history.
I prefer 25 over 26 in terms of action. I prefer 26 over 25 in terms of emotion and storytelling. That final shot of Michaels climbing up Taker before smacking him hard enough to enrage Taker into that Spike Tombstone was pure cinema.
He's praised HBK many times. He's only talked about how he didn't like him as a person back in the day but have no feelings for him today because he doesn't know him today
HBK was so good, he’s one of a few wrestlers who didn’t need the title. Before someone rips my head off, I’m well aware he had 4 championship reigns, but he had none his final 8 years.
@hardiks2685 Nobody in the mid 90’s drew as champion. The product sucked then. His ability was so much better than other guys they had to recognize that by making him champion. He was more deserving of that recognition than pretty much anyone.
He won the WHC for a month near the end of 2002 following his comeback, but I remember reading somewhere that he specifically didn't want to be champion after that because he didn't want the pressure. If I recall he was originally supposed to go over Cena in their Wrestlemania match.
@@mattst.germain4023You are correct. HBK said back then the champion needed to be the face of the company and be the person that puts in the most time and he wasn't wanting to do that in that stage of his career.
@hardiks2685 two best factions ever in my opinion and the only two to have a ppv named after them with D-Generation X In Your House and nWo Souled Out 97.
@hardiks2685they were absolutely over and were draws. Kids at school used to do crotch chops back in the day. People got in trouble for doing things like those.
Normally once Jim hates someone it’s permanent. The fact he’s been willing to give HBK compliments the last few years speaks volumes to how much Shawn actually changed when he came back in 2002. Even when Jim’s hate was at its max in the 90’s he never bashed anything Shawn did in the ring.
@@therocksaysthis8821 I think this is the one where he talks about it. It was whatever year Jim was at the hall of fame ruclips.net/video/07xI8mqj5z8/видео.htmlsi=AbqWsQXGqnOj_6Oj
I think age was also a factor. Jim mentioned how HBK grew older and with the passing of alot of his friends, Jim probably feels morality even more especially they spoke this before/ after the Scott Hall documentary and decided to give HBK his flowers. He never hated HBK for his talent, he hated his attitude back in the 90s
No, he was working in TNA during that time period and he mentioned on his previous shows that he never watch any WWE stuff during that time period while working for other companies @yourefriendlyneighborhoodbuddy
His last two matches on the main stage (WrestleMania) are as good as it gets. Shawn Michaels, whether you like him or not, is, arguably the greatest wrestler EVER.
@@g-dub5272I ordered WrestleMania 25 and consider that match the greatest I've ever seen live, but I don't think it's even the best HBK vs. Undertaker match. The first Hell in a Cell at Badd Blood 1997 is my greatest match of all-time. I think it's a masterclass in professional wrestling from beginning to end.
Hopefully this spark Jim watches Taker match against HBK and Triple H for the 4 straight Mania since Jim himself admitted that he didn't watch any WWE stuff while working for another companies. Taker vs Batista, Taker vs Edge and Taker vs Punk would be great for Jim to watch also
HIAC was a masterclass of PRO WRESTLING. Taker fully evolved into his more gothic “Lord of Darkness” gimmick after humanizing himself a bit, Shawn at the height of his DX heel turn, Kane being talked about for months and the focus suddenly being off of him for a little bit, the debut of the Cell itself, the psychology of the match, Taker splitting his attention between Shawn and Kane which gave both of them the advantage.
You don’t have to watch the crown jewel match but at least fans of the 4 men involved can be happy that they took home a bucket of money for their retirement - as they should. Taker and Shawn in particular were in WWF at a time when they were all taking pay cuts for their loyalty.
I remember that match between Undertaker vs Bret with HBK as ref. Great match. Vividly remember HBK hitting Taker with the chair and angrily counting 1,2,3 for Bret.
That loogie that Bret spit in Shawn's face was nasty lol. I think Bret even apologized for it after the match, which is crazy considering how much they disliked each other
We need a watch along of Taker vs Michaels from WM 25. Now the fans are split between WWE Network in other countries and Peacock in the States but maybe next year when everything goes on Netflix? Then again, that match is also available in the WWE youtube channel so....
Honestly, I would give anything to have these two talk about anything involving Shawn Michaels without having to rehash how much they hate the guy. We get it already. He was a massive prick and a pain in the ass, but some of the points made here don't even follow. Almost halfway through the video and they haven't gotten to talking about their epic matches at Mania yet. I'm sure it's amusing for some, and even I can find some humor in moments, but when that's half the video, it gets a bit tedious. Especially when, despite by their admission that they've had no interaction with the guy in decades, they pay lip service to the idea he may have grown up a bit since then.
About the frog piss, I know that toads piss when they get grabbed as a defense mechanism. I don't recall if I saw a toad piss on my hand or on another kid's hand when I was in elementary school.
I was at the Mania 26 match and I wanna remember that as Shawn's last match instead of that dumpster fire of a tag match with DX vs Taker and Kane in Saudi Arabia
Yeah I agree but also if someone's offering you 3 million dollars to have a tag match then I can see why he took it. But even tho the match was crap Shawn was the best out of the 4 init for what it's worth 😂
it was pretty bad. but even Austin got sold on coming out of retirement for some money. and he retired basically due to long-term injuries. 🤣 never say never in this business. Kane losing his mask was probably the biggest blemish.
Still say it SHOULD have been Michaels that broke the streak. It would have made perfect sense. Brock Lesnar is still one of Vince's dumbest ideas. To this day, and Brock is a huge bad man for sure, I could care less when Brock Lesnar comes out to wrestle. And it was only made worse by the fact that he couldn't talk and didn't make an effort and got his cozy schedule. End rant.
💯. I always believed, and still do, that if HBK couldn't do it (end the streak), then nobody should've. Personally, I don't think 'Taker should've ever lost at 'Mania.
Lesnar gained nothing from that win. it's not like he was a rising star. they already gave him everything in his first run. another example of how much of a moron Vince became the last decade or so. I also still defend Austin walking out at the idea of jobbing to Lesnar on free TV.
I would love to hear jim and Brian do watch alongs to more stuff. My favourite thing about modern wrestling is listening to jim talk about old wrestling.
At 11:00 or so, you both Brian and Corny, haven't got me laughing is soooo long about the hair, girls, and Leaf Garrett. Thabk you sooooo much! Please have more of off topic craziness.
I love Jim's take on how some of the boys look now compared to him. Must be something in the Memphis water because Lawler and Honky Tonk used to do the same thing about their contemporaries. But I can't disagree. Jim does look the same pretty much, same as Lawler and HTM years ago. I think even Stan Hansen was the same.
And yet Bruce never says anything super negative about Jim or anything bad about Jim for that matter. As for Brian. He is just a tag along. As much as Bruce is the artful dodger, Brian is the coat tail rider.
Highway to Hell was Undertaker and Stone Cold Summer Slam 1998. 1997 was Hart and Soul. It was the SummerSlam Stone Cold was injured on with Owen Hart. Although Stone Cold was out cold at the 1998 SummerSlam too. Undertaker and Stone Cold head butted each other. And Stone Cold was concussed.
Has anybody else noticed that listening to Jim and Brian talk for half an hour seems like 10 mins while listening to others for 10 feels like half an hour?
I agree with Jim. Watching old stuff like HBK VS Undertaker is truly depressing. You see how great wrestling USED to be, and watching it puts today's product to absolute shame. I maintain that the 1997 Bad Blood match between Michaels and Taker was the most perfect wrestling match ever displayed. It hit all the right buttons a main event wrestling match should have.
For the record, and I wish I could forget it, Vince had a match with Bret Hart at WM 26 that also involved every living member of the Hart family that wasn't suing Vince at the time.
18:05 Really, that same disparity existed between Taker's matches with Shawn and then HHH and the Wrestlemanias they took place on. Though I do find it funny that HHH won the title as a babyface in the main event twice and both times it was completely overshadowed by the third match to last.
Um a huge Taker fan. Bret vs Taker summerslam is my most hated match involving Taker. It just did not make sense as it made HBK so God damn stupid. He is the referee. He nailed Taker with the chairshot illegally. HBK hates Bret. Doesn't want him to win. Bret spits on HBK....JUST DQ HIM THERE! but he doesn't. But then...hbk accidentally hits Taker with chairshot--illegally! Just call for DQ again! Bret doesn't get title. Mission accomplished. Just stupid booking
Brian needs to tell Jim that the only thing actually ironic about the song Ironic by Alanis Morissette is that all the ironic examples given by her are not ironic at all. Thus making the entire song very ironic.
It's like the song the monster mash which is about a dance called the monster mash which is inspired by a song called the monster mash which isn't the song the monster mash.
Hell In A Cell 1 is the best example of WWE style wrestling and a true, genuine 5-star match. That match told more story from the DX prematch promo to the OPENING bell than TYB have told in their careers. The psychology was perfect, the work was perfect, the commentary was perfect, the finish was perfect. Everyone came out better. Taker fans got to see him destroy the thorn in his side and leave him in a bloody heap, as well as setting up his WM journey. Shawn gets to go on TV and say he won the impossible match. Kane is a made man on night 1 and could've beat Shawn for the title the next night without a single fan batting an eyelash. My personal favorite match, and imo, this match is their Magnum Opus, and better than WM25, tho 25 had more heart-stopping moments.
Bruce isn’t gonna say ANYTHING bad about Shawn Michaels because he’s the last remaining of Vince’s guys, and the two guys in control of the two main shows right now are hHh and Shawn Michaels. One sour word and Bruce is out on his ass in the cold again
As someone who’s stationed in Germany I can confirm that the Germans dooo love their fetishes lol😂 sex is not as taboo here in Europe as it is in the states

I love Jim's take on how some of the boys look now compared to him. Must be something in the Memphis water because Lawler and Honky Tonk used to do the same thing about their contemporaries.
But I can't disagree. Jim does look the same pretty much, same as Lawler and HTM years ago. I think even Stan Hansen was the same.
Travis and the damn thumbnails🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love hearing Brian and Jim go off on Bruce.
And yet Bruce never says anything super negative about Jim or anything bad about Jim for that matter.
As for Brian. He is just a tag along. As much as Bruce is the artful dodger, Brian is the coat tail rider.

Brian isn't part of the wrestling business

Highway to Hell was Undertaker and Stone Cold Summer Slam 1998. 1997 was Hart and Soul. It was the SummerSlam Stone Cold was injured on with Owen Hart. Although Stone Cold was out cold at the 1998 SummerSlam too. Undertaker and Stone Cold head butted each other. And Stone Cold was concussed.
Need some hbk/taker watch alongs for sure
Has anybody else noticed that listening to Jim and Brian talk for half an hour seems like 10 mins while listening to others for 10 feels like half an hour?
I agree with Jim. Watching old stuff like HBK VS Undertaker is truly depressing. You see how great wrestling USED to be, and watching it puts today's product to absolute shame.
I maintain that the 1997 Bad Blood match between Michaels and Taker was the most perfect wrestling match ever displayed. It hit all the right buttons a main event wrestling match should have.
16:27 I can just imagine Jim deflating at hearing this
For the record, and I wish I could forget it, Vince had a match with Bret Hart at WM 26 that also involved every living member of the Hart family that wasn't suing Vince at the time.
And what did the evil man do? He put em over.
They even put Shawns "Wild Eye" in the thumbnail 😂
It's a recurring thing with Travis. The man has puhzaz
18:05 Really, that same disparity existed between Taker's matches with Shawn and then HHH and the Wrestlemanias they took place on. Though I do find it funny that HHH won the title as a babyface in the main event twice and both times it was completely overshadowed by the third match to last.
Coor’s light on a sunny day, lol
Um a huge Taker fan. Bret vs Taker summerslam is my most hated match involving Taker. It just did not make sense as it made HBK so God damn stupid. He is the referee. He nailed Taker with the chairshot illegally. HBK hates Bret. Doesn't want him to win. Bret spits on HBK....JUST DQ HIM THERE! but he doesn't. But then...hbk accidentally hits Taker with chairshot--illegally! Just call for DQ again! Bret doesn't get title. Mission accomplished.
Just stupid booking
That was a shit match
Brian needs to tell Jim that the only thing actually ironic about the song Ironic by Alanis Morissette is that all the ironic examples given by her are not ironic at all. Thus making the entire song very ironic.
It's like the song the monster mash which is about a dance called the monster mash which is inspired by a song called the monster mash which isn't the song the monster mash.
The only ironic thing is that someone with that terrible of a singing voice sold that many records.
@@Cruising_On_Lake_Havasoma Hold up now! She said she’d go down on you in a theatre… I’d put up with her whining if that was on the cards haha!
I've always thought Michaels/Undertaker Hell in a Cell was the best Michaels/Undertaker match.
Brian : Were you into women that.....
Jim : Why yes I was!
"Michaels always has to win or elsewise he wount show up" ' Jim Cornette
As he has one of the worst win loss records
Hell In A Cell 1 is the best example of WWE style wrestling and a true, genuine 5-star match. That match told more story from the DX prematch promo to the OPENING bell than TYB have told in their careers. The psychology was perfect, the work was perfect, the commentary was perfect, the finish was perfect. Everyone came out better. Taker fans got to see him destroy the thorn in his side and leave him in a bloody heap, as well as setting up his WM journey. Shawn gets to go on TV and say he won the impossible match. Kane is a made man on night 1 and could've beat Shawn for the title the next night without a single fan batting an eyelash. My personal favorite match, and imo, this match is their Magnum Opus, and better than WM25, tho 25 had more heart-stopping moments.
Come for the Michaels-Taker talk stay for the discussion on frog bodily functions and German fetish videos.
The hair lmao
Jim looks nice with long hair
*Interesting Podcast of The Jim Cornette Show*
i was waiting to hear what they thought for this one, but did they get derailed
its a free fuckin ride when you're already late.
It’s the good advice that you just didn’t take 😝
@BlessedAreTheCheesemakers it’s like rain on your wedding day
Why is Brian so passionate about Shawns past and he wasn't part of the business?
Bruce isn’t gonna say ANYTHING bad about Shawn Michaels because he’s the last remaining of Vince’s guys, and the two guys in control of the two main shows right now are hHh and Shawn Michaels. One sour word and Bruce is out on his ass in the cold again
As someone who’s stationed in Germany I can confirm that the Germans dooo love their fetishes lol😂 sex is not as taboo here in Europe as it is in the states
Sweetchin music vs chokslam legendary ❤rivalry
No smoking sign on your smoke break
Lmao the artwork and Shawn’s face 😂
Did Kevin nash speak on the episode lol u see him sitter there but not talking
Petition for Jim to do watch alongs of more modern matches that he hasnt seen but would probably like(Punk vs Taker, Cena Vs Punk MitB, etc)
Like Woody, If only #17 just used DraftKings, this never would have happened
🤣🤣🤣 Jim going off about pretty boys 😂😂😂
Solid gold
Greetings from Germany 😂 Thanks Mr. Cornette for pooping on my country 😂
WTH this devolved into TMI! Ha ha ha
The turns they take… hilarious 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Can't believe brian ever made fun of jim's singing after hearing that

By the way if Bret lost he would not wrestle again in America. If Shawn helped Undertaker on purpose then he would not wrestle in America.
Alanis Morrissey?
this was a great episode of WWE rivals Undertaker's feud with shawn michaels was amazing their matches at wrestlemania 25 and wrestlemania 26 were great IDK which is better their first one at 25 or their last one at 26.
They even for me both was amazing
@@JACQUEZ23same here if only their match at wrestlemania 25 was the main event it would've been better than triple h vs randy orton that was boring especially the stipulation of if triple h used a weapon he would be disqualified they should've made that match No-DQ.
