@@danielrierson6683 Well The Monday Night Wars was in its final chapters and WCW wanted something to garner attention but it was Game Over for WCW after 1998-99.
DDP legitimately had a good performance in this film. He was great as the heel. I don’t think most of the roster in either company could do that role justice.
@@ChrisHominski I didn't know that, but that casting would make a lot of sense. I'm a big Nash fan so I wouldn't mind seeing how he did in the role either.

Honestly big up to Chris Kanyon who helped on this film being the stunt double for Oliver Platt as well as Shane Helms being Arquette's stunt double. Also funny thing Platt actually hit Savage for real in the dream sequence i wonder if Savage snapped into him like a slim jim
Chris was a big reason I loved WCW. He did stuff in the ring I never saw before. The business really screwed him over.. funny how guys like Pat Patterson were able to exist, while guys like Chris was targeted in WWE.

So in movies Savage gets legit punched and also dropped on his head in Spiderman. Clearly he should have stayed in a completely safe job, such as wrestling
@@iamdevilboy5976 yep! Here’s an excerpt from his review: The problem with "Ready to Rumble" is that its hero is not a wrestler but an actor, Oliver Platt. Platt is a good comic actor and I have liked him in a lot of movies, but here he is not well-used and occupies a role that would have been better filled by a real wrestler. That is demonstrated every time Diamond Dallas Page is on the screen, playing himself with such ferocity that Platt seems to be playing "Jimmy the King" in a key heard only by himself.
Been waiting forever for you to cover this movie. DDP actually hosted a showing of Ready to Rumble in Atlanta a couple weeks ago. It was incredible to finally see this movie in a mostly packed theater. Even opening weekend in 2000, it was just my dad, my friend, and myself in an evening showing
According to WWE's own website, the WCW/NWA world title can trace its lineage all the way back to 1904 with George Hackenschmidt. Over the years it was held by such legends as Lou Thesz, Dusty Rhodes and Ric Flair. Truly the highlight of that belt's prestigious history was putting it on David Arquette to tie in with this cinematic masterpiece.
Ehh, I’m sure there’s been champs before that weren’t great athletes but got put over. Oh wait, Warrior. He couldn’t wrestle either, but unlike Arquette, couldn’t work a script either. If you look at the stills of the actors’ faces doing comedic bits here, they don’t look that far off from how Warrior looked running in circles shaking the ropes.
@@LongLiveRockAnRoll It started off realistic, but eventually the wheels fell off. The movie came out well after Hogan had a talk with Warrior though a mirror. So the “realistic” angle had already been discarded.
I'm not going to lie, I absolutely loved this movie when I was younger. I remember watching it with my brother and uncle, we died laughing. Especially the part where he drinks the blue slurpee and sticks his finger in his rear-end, then takes it to the clerk and says "I think somethings wrong with my drink, I think I need a new drink". Granted I was only 10 when this came out. But, I went back and watched it recently and I still had quite a few good laughs. It's a nice ride on the Nostalgia train, taking me over 20 years back in time.
Smart move using Sting as the graphic cover, had I seen any of these guys I never would have clicked on it. In a weird way I did enjoy the video recap. The Wrestling Bios guy does a good job on all his videos.
I really liked this movie when it came out and actually wanted more. Given, I was a kid but this and Beyond The Mat were just amazing. Also, I can see why you would prefer this film over The Wrestler, since the Wrestle seemed more like a character study piece that used wrestling as a vehicle to tell its story more so than a celebration of it. Ready To Rumble just felt like a celebration of pro wrestling and how fun and wild the storylines can be.
Fun fact: Ready to Rumble was not included in the sale of WCW to WWE, meaning that Warner still owns the rights to the movie. That's the main reason why it's not on the WWE Network.
What really got me was when he said "you had to be high to watch this movie", I was rolling my 2nd blunt 🤦🏾♂️😂😂no fuccin way 😂😂😂Much Love ❤ @Wrestlingbios. Honestly Loving all your content ❤
"The Wrestler" was a well made film that was intended to be an incredibly artistic and insightful film look into what happens to a wrestler after their glory days. With the bonus of Marisa Tomei ❤ This movie was always intended to be slapstick and entertaining and will always get top billing over "The Wrestler" on my watch list.
I unironically adore this film and have done since it released. I watched it the year it came out, and wasn't even a WCW guy, I grew up in a WWF house but this movie kicked ass to me. This and Scream made me a lifelong Arquette fan, still am to this day. SAL BANDINI, WANNA WRESTLE?!
fun fact: john cena is actually in this movie. he is a background character so he doesn't have any lines. he is in the gym scene when they go talk to goldberg. you see cena behind them get on the machine. the camera changes pretty quick so it's easy to miss
Shout-out to Jimmy the King's stunt-double, Who Betta Than? Kanyon. Really dope seeing The King bust out the Kanyon Swinging Neckbreaker against Dallas Page in the 1st match
Nailed it. This movie was a perfect product of it's time, and was never meant to be taken any other way. Fits right in perfectly between Half Baked, Friday, Super Troopers, Mallrats, Dirty Work, and How High. (Plus I can't speak highly enough about how you incorporate Revenge music into your WCW videos; such a nice subliminal touch that makes me want to dust off my N64)
This has quickly become my favorite wrestling channel and just one of my favorite channels of all time. And this is some of the best wrestling videos by far than maybe basically any of wrestling with Wregret’s channel and watching the old How Adam would book on "WhatCulture" and the new channel he’s on they do QuizzleMania a wrestling quiz show on the channel PartsFunKnown and it’s pretty entertaining.
I like that Jimmy King is clearly presented as a top tier wrestler on the cover of magazines and has his very own wrestling game which no other wrestler has ever had yet he lives in a freaking camper, what was his contract?
I love the start of the video when our awesome host wanted to do something different, we see ready to rumble and we hear For Fu then Booze time. Though to be honest our host should have drank straight from the bottle itself.😂
1st time I've ever commented on one of your videos, there all great by the way, but I have to say I totally agree with you, this is my number 1 wrestling film to date, also as a side note I had a mate who was super into wrestling as well as we imagined that Steve blackman went the same way as the King, in a motor home, in a wig just waiting to be brought back one day, ahh good times. Thanks for the uploads, really appreciated after every watch.
@@awesomeatronik he was a heel too as the leader of the Jersey Triad (with Bam Bam and Kanyon). At least one of his three runs as WCW World Champ was while he was a heel. Might be two of three but not sure. His first was as a face and his last as a heel but can't remember about the second.
Just checked, Page was a face when he won the World Title for the first time but turned heel while he was champion. His second run came just 2 hours after his first when he lost and regained the title in the same night. His third run was actually as a face shortly after Ready to Rumble when Arquette came to WCW - David was the next champ after Page.
I recalled The Death of WCW criticizing the film on how Wrestling Fans are portrayed. However, I am starting to believe they got the Marks spot on though. It aged pretty well from my perspective. I will say the film is a guilty pleasure of mine. Loved seeing the wrestlers there and Sting's stoicness made it perfect. I wanted to be entertained and I did.
Loved Ready to Rumble. When it came out I was hyped to see a movie in the cinema about WRESTLING! Repeat viewing a few years ago, I still enjoyed it accepting the dated jokes; little bits like Dallas saying "you know that stuff doesn't actually work right?" to the salt in the eyes.
No guilty pleasure for me. This is one of my all time favorite comedies and movies in general. Yeah it was probably because I was 9 year old die hard wrestling fan in 2000 but 23 years later I still can’t get enough of this movie lol.
Me and my brother used to watch this taped on a VHS over an episode of "Boy meets world" when I was in elementary school... I remember it vividly because as soon as the triple cage match started, it would cut to Eric Mathews doing the Mr. Feeny call... fafafafeenyyyy😂 I loved this movie as a kid but hindsight surely doesn't make a good historian... This move as an adult may suck pond water bt the memories live on! R.i.p Scotty, I miss you brother more than you can imagine. Thanks wrestling bios, another banger video like always! 🫱🏻🫲🏼
Heck yes! I love this movie!!!!! I think I love it even more now after a WrestlingBios retrospective. WrestlingBios is the BestlingBios, better than the RestlingBios!
I am so happy to see I'm not the only one who loves this movie. I have a lot of fond memories of this movie. My uncle and I use to watch it on a monthly basis, and a month before he passed we watched it for the last time. We use to quote this movie constantly. Such good movies.
I quote this movie on a weekly basis more so than Austin powers. It's ur typical buddy duo turn of the milliumium movie like American pie and dude where's my car .
I’ve been waiting for this moment!!! I was a huge fan at the time and was so excited to see another wrestling star studded movie and this one had me as a smaller dude.
I love this movie, I watched it a lot when I was 7 years old. Thanks for the memories with this video...I bought this movie on DVD 3 years ago because I missed watching it on tape.
It isn't, but that's exactly what it should have been like. Shouldn't have been about two loser wrestling fans and the hero should have actually looked like a wrestler rather than a beardy fat guy
“Grape slushee. King sized!” “That’ll be a dollar twenty six.” “Dollar twenty five…thatsalligot.” “Well that’s just not enough, is it, you little boob? YOU PATHETIC LITTLE BOOB!” God, I love this movie…
The saddest thing about this movie is the fact the booking was miles better than WCW at the time,
Sad but true. The cage looked amazing. Then Slamboree did it and... let's just say it was disappointing.
People need to understand that David Arquette winning the title was a joke because of this movie. He speared Eric bischoff to win it lol.
@@danielrierson6683 Well The Monday Night Wars was in its final chapters and WCW wanted something to garner attention but it was Game Over for WCW after 1998-99.
"Oooohhh, the humanityyyyyy!!!!"
I would rather watch this movie for two hours than a 3 hour RAW
I unironically enjoy this movie. It is OK to just have fun and not take things seriously, and I appreciate that things like this exist.
Exactly man the goofiness in this film is 10/10
I will always love this movie.
I love the 90s Batman & Robin movie for the same reason. Lol
Same
same 😅 the kings rapping tho😮
DDP legitimately had a good performance in this film. He was great as the heel. I don’t think most of the roster in either company could do that role justice.
the role was originally written for Nash, I think he would have pulled it off but I agree that DDP was great
@@ChrisHominski I didn't know that, but that casting would make a lot of sense. I'm a big Nash fan so I wouldn't mind seeing how he did in the role either.

Yep injuries can happen at points. Not fake at all.
I'm sorry
I still say “cus it do” to this day
The man feels a bit run down covering Raws, Nitros and PPVs and therefore he chills by giving us another great video. What a legend.
Honestly... this movie is super underrated.
P.S. Happy Endeavor week!
I have always liked mma and wrestling so nothing new lol
I've the whole movie on my cellphone and The film is so shitty that it's good again... 😁
Honestly big up to Chris Kanyon who helped on this film being the stunt double for Oliver Platt as well as Shane Helms being Arquette's stunt double. Also funny thing Platt actually hit Savage for real in the dream sequence i wonder if Savage snapped into him like a slim jim
Facts 💯💯 . RIP Kanyon
Chris was a big reason I loved WCW. He did stuff in the ring I never saw before. The business really screwed him over.. funny how guys like Pat Patterson were able to exist, while guys like Chris was targeted in WWE.
@@SP-qo3pd it helps that Pat Patterson was willing to accept unacceptable homophobia.
By that I mean it helped his career and his standing with Vince McMahon.
If you’re willing to tolerate bigotry against your people you can find “acceptance”.
I, unfortunately, found this “acceptance” in the past.
Thankfully I moved beyond that.
You could see the instant fear on his face after he did it. 😅
So in movies Savage gets legit punched and also dropped on his head in Spiderman. Clearly he should have stayed in a completely safe job, such as wrestling
Diamond Dallas Page was the best part of this movie! Even Roger Ebert praised DDP’s performance. He should have been the star of the movie!
Noooooo! We gotta bury himaaaaahhhh against the Undertakeraaaaahhhh!!
A diamond upside down is a P"$$y 😂 a

@@LongLiveRockAnRoll It started off realistic, but eventually the wheels fell off. The movie came out well after Hogan had a talk with Warrior though a mirror. So the “realistic” angle had already been discarded.
@@shenanitims4006 When did Warrior win the NWA title?

I just watched it last night, and while I think the movie mostly sucks, that climax with the roster coming out to make the save was amazing

My monitor almost wore my drink with that G Gundam Reference. Bravo my good man.
Total guilty pleasure movie for me. Love it.

Ruaso: Bro, he's the second best champ, bro. Bro, I'm the best one, bro.
🐐🐐🐐
What are you smok'in on?
Nope. Jimmy King.
That's not even funny. Vince Russo was, is and always will be the greatest WCW Champion of all time.
I remember around the time wwf bought wcw this movie was on constantly on HBO also you can't tell me jimmy king's character wasn't based on Lawler
And based on Ric Flair
@donypaddy6859 yea him too I was thinking Lawler more so with the strained relationship with the son and believing the king gimmick
I unironically adore this film and have done since it released. I watched it the year it came out, and wasn't even a WCW guy, I grew up in a WWF house but this movie kicked ass to me. This and Scream made me a lifelong Arquette fan, still am to this day.
SAL BANDINI, WANNA WRESTLE?!
I remember when this movie came out. My cousin and I were the only people in the theater, and I'll admit, it's a very guilty pleasure. 🤣
Idk about everyone else but I have been waiting for this moment since about 100 episodes into reliving the war 🖤🥺 I love this movie.
One of my favorite guilty pleasure movies of all time next to deep blue sea and battlefield earth lol
I had the soundtrack to this movie, it was amazing. It has my favourite version of Sting's WCW theme.
“Wakey Wakey, Hands Off Snakey!” My fav line
R.I.P. Diamond Dallas Page. He died in the cage match in this movie.
Hahahahaaa sure. That's why he was in WWE after the movie and that's why he's the founder and owner of DDP Yoga today.....🤣🤣🤣🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Defeated the way Hogan Slammed Andre the Giant as well at Wrestlemania III. 😂 Thank goodness Shane Helms was the stunt double.
Correction: Page SHOULD have died because he's killing us all with his Yoga for drunks and those stupid arm bands... 😖
And the movie itself died at the box office lol
That fall was epic as hell...I enjoyed the movie
The Longest Yard is the best non-wrestling movie starring wrestlers.
A guilty pleasure of mine. 😄
"Sal Bandini. Wanna wrestle?"
My favourite part of the video was your “Upcoming video” list. I hope VH1 lets you use their footage for 2CS. Your little touches do not go unnoticed.
That intro!!!
Fun fact: The "New York Arena" (13:31) in this movie is actually the Javits Center, where New York Comic Con and Anime NYC are held every year.
I remember rushing to the theater to watch this as a kid 😆
fun fact: john cena is actually in this movie. he is a background character so he doesn't have any lines. he is in the gym scene when they go talk to goldberg. you see cena behind them get on the machine. the camera changes pretty quick so it's easy to miss
You can't see him
Jimmy King vs. The Ram. Now that's a dream match!
A Wrestlemania main event for sure.
Shout-out to Jimmy the King's stunt-double, Who Betta Than? Kanyon. Really dope seeing The King bust out the Kanyon Swinging Neckbreaker against Dallas Page in the 1st match
You Mufuggin!!! How in God's name did you make this video so damn entertaining. 👍👍 I may never watch the movie, but I will come back to this again. 💯
I have to admit this Film has always been my favourite guilty pleasure ever since first seeing it on the old UK Sky Movies Max channel 22 years ago!🤣
Nailed it. This movie was a perfect product of it's time, and was never meant to be taken any other way. Fits right in perfectly between Half Baked, Friday, Super Troopers, Mallrats, Dirty Work, and How High.

I worked at a movie theater when this came out, I used to see every movie. I remember seeing this, I enjoyed it. Was just a fun watch.
HELLYEAH!
Changing the steel cage match right before it takes place and adding a title to grab makes total sense to me. It's WCW in the year 2000, after all.
This is a Classic, I use to watch this all the time and remember damn near every movie line. Jimmy King 👑
Behold! The King!
1st time I've ever commented on one of your videos, there all great by the way, but I have to say I totally agree with you, this is my number 1 wrestling film to date, also as a side note I had a mate who was super into wrestling as well as we imagined that Steve blackman went the same way as the King, in a motor home, in a wig just waiting to be brought back one day, ahh good times. Thanks for the uploads, really appreciated after every watch.
Thank you, the insert of the bottle had me laughing out loud. Thank you so much for your work.
The triple cage match is a genuinely great idea. Combine a cage and ladder match. Yes please
as a 10 year old wrestling fan. this was the greatest movie of the generation
It was so weird seeing DDP as an antagonist in this movie.
Why? He was one of the top wcw stars at this time...
@@Dr._P._Enis because he was a baby face during the height of WCWs popularity.

Both The Chaperone and Inside Out bow down and kiss the very ground Ready to Rumble walks on. Pretty sure we can all agree on that.
I still love this movie. The sliding head scissors is a finisher just waiting to be stolen!
To be fair, Ready to Rumble is pretty much just an average 2000 WCW storyline.. 😂😂
No guilty pleasure for me. This is one of my all time favorite comedies and movies in general. Yeah it was probably because I was 9 year old die hard wrestling fan in 2000 but 23 years later I still can’t get enough of this movie lol.
Watching it high or drunk makes it so much better

Ready To Rumble took place in an alternate universe were WWF/E dosn't exist.
I agree, just a fun little movie to watch if you don't take it seriously.
In Gordy’s defense, I’ve had dreams of the Nitro Girls as well.
Making DDP a heel for the movie is hilarious
Thank you wrestling Bios for covering this movie with your sense of humor 😂😅 I like it
I remember John Cena is in the background in one of the scenes lol
Lol
I love this movie, I watched it a lot when I was 7 years old.
Thanks for the memories with this video...I bought this movie on DVD 3 years ago because I missed watching it on tape.
I liked both The Wrestler and Ready to Rumble. Do you prefer comedy or drama? It just depends on my mood.
Thank you for all your brilliant videos Wrestling Bios we all really appreciate and love the work you do!
RTR is like career mode in a video game
That is strangely spot on
It isn't, but that's exactly what it should have been like. Shouldn't have been about two loser wrestling fans and the hero should have actually looked like a wrestler rather than a beardy fat guy
0:25: My thoughts exactly, you probable polished off that bottle in one movie, Dude!! Bless You for taking one for the team
You know the best part of this movie is No Hogan
If I remember correctly this movie missed out big time because they didn’t cast Mongo in any roles.
“Grape slushee. King sized!”
“That’ll be a dollar twenty six.”
“Dollar twenty five…thatsalligot.”
“Well that’s just not enough, is it, you little boob? YOU PATHETIC LITTLE BOOB!”
God, I love this movie…
The greatest WCW-themed movie of all time.
It's the only WCW movie....
@@Dr._P._Enis what about the mini movies they had in the early 90s
So a nitro girl takes a ladder to the face and everything carries on but the demon gets hit and we need a doctor.
Let’s be honest the writing is better in this film than anything in the WWE for the past 20 years
I WILL RULE YOU! Loved it when it came out, still love it now.
This movie is free on RUclips right now and somehow I watched it last night what a coincidence I don't care what anybody says I enjoy this movie
I cannot find it on yt
Been waiting on this video. My cousin and I wore this vhs tape out. Best movie of 2000.
let's get "READY TO RUMBLE". Gonna be a favorite video for sho
Oh, god. I remember seeing this movie in theaters! yeah, you're gonna go through that bottle _very_ quickly!
