Maybe, just maybe, Bios can cover WWF Insurrextion 2000 in May, if only so that we can get one last appearance from the Bulldog for this series, nine days before he leaves WWF for the last time. He even wins the Hardcore Title on that show!
Sir, I saw one of your recent videos, where you said this series had drained you and taken a lot out of you. Obviously, that is sad to hear. I dont think any of us, your many fans, want you to be uncomfortable. Please be assured that your work is massively appreciated. This is light years ahead of any other wrestling-related series out there. And you're obviously coming up on the end of it. I for one hope you'll manage to finish this series because what a magnum opus it is. Not even WWE themselves have made anything remotely as good as this about this period. Thank you. Sincerely ... thank you.
We truely appreciate all the hard work that has gone into making this series. That’s why I became a patreon supporter. I have loved this series from the beggining and will probably re watch it when it’s over.
Things I’ve learned from watching this nostalgic series and reliving the war: This is the best series on the Internet right now. Wrestling Bios has an insane amount of wrestling knowledge. Using the term “Telling porky pies”.
I believe porky pies is Cockney rhyming slang - pies lies. Bios definitely isn't a Cockney but a lot of those terms have entered common usage in Britain and Ireland.
The person’s memory helped the most by RTW: Test. I remember watching all of this live, and even back then, I thought Test was kind of meh. But in watching it in hindsight….holy hell was this guy underutilized.
I was at this RAW show, in the nosebleed seats. I thought it was a good show, the tag teams were more interesting than the midcard singles matches at this time, so it was good to see a bunch of tag matches and it felt like everybody on the RAW roster got the chance to get their stuff in. There was a minute where Big Show chopped Kane and I heard and felt it in my seat at the top of the Dome.
At this time in the war, i was in the Marine Corps and we would all pack into the common rooms to watch Raw. I was the lone HHH fan and i did a tremendous amount of trash talking during each episode. Reliving some of my best memories watching these.
I discovered this series almost 4 years ago while my wife was on vacation in Hawaii..i got all caught up in a weekend lol haven't missed a Thursday/Sunday since!
Ever since The Rock said that HHH always says "UHH" anytime he talks, I always laugh now because for some strange reason, he still talks like this even though he does not wrestle anymore.
We still have a lot of good stuff coming. American Badass Undertaker... Triple H and the Rock's long feud... Kurt Angle's rise to the top... Austin's return. (I can't really think of any good WCW stuff from 2000.)
a memorable moment sure, but apparently was a bit of a mess when they were taping the segment since it required a couple of takes due to something going wrong with the crane Stone Cold used to destroy the bus.
Raw leads by 46 points, there are 57 episodes of Nitro left - including 2 clip shows (3/4/00 and 1/1/01). It's nearly mathematically over as a contest.
@@andrewford7179 probably is gonna come when we get to the big reboot and the Bischoff/Russo era on Nitro and WWF hitting their stride on the way to Backlash 2000.
"Lets forget about your real life troubles for awhile" absolutely Ryan your channel is always, always, a bright spot on my day. Appreciate all you do brother
The lack of one on one matches on RAW isn't that surprising considering we are fast approaching the only WrestleMania in history without a one on one encounter
16:37 there we go! Always pop for a hot return of the newest RTW classic. Also ~ the head cheese rap is absolute gold lol but then again, everything related to our master and idol, Shin Blackman, is gold.
Its a good thing dustin had his golddust run because i dont think he ever would have had many fans without. He just never looked like someone that ever would of gotten over without it
I just noticed several people on this current WCW roster were in WWF during the beginning of the Attitude Era. Dustin Rhodes (Goldust), Terry Funk (Chainsaw), Harris Brothers (Biker Miker Likers), Ahmed, SID. Most people think of only WCW guys jumping over to WWF during this time, when many were going to WCW as well.
When i was 5 years old my uncle showed me a raw show since then ive watch every show,ppv since but after watching you for a year ive went back and watch old Monday night but ive never been to a show in person
Another awesome episode of reliving the war the rock's promo still makes me laugh 24-years later it even got triple H and Stephanie McMahon to break character that was absolutely hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Imagine being a truck driver, and you see Mick Foley, Kane, and Paul Bearer hitchhiking. I dunno why, but the though of Attitude Era Kane hitchhiking is very funny to me 😂
So when none of the currently active members of nWo 2000 are even wearing a single nWo-branded piece of clothing, including the de facto leader of the group... is it even an nWo anymore? I mean, even the nWo B Team knew to continue wearing nWo shirts once they were the only thing remaining after Road Wild 1999!
@ that means we won’t see it on Reliving the War. That sucks I’d like to hear Wrestling bios thoughts on that cd. Again I thought it had some good stuff on there. The kings and Pimping ain’t easy the two best imo
I swear when this series is over you will be the most credible person to actually know why WCW failed since you watched every show. You can clearly tell WCW was on a downhill creatively already by 1997 but there is no doubt in my mind that AOL had no choice but to pull the trigger. It's not because they didn't like wrestling like many Marks believe it was simply a business decision. I used to watch WCW even in 2000 sporadically and it wasn't because Nitro was good but because it looked like an accident that you couldn't overlook
I was at this raw. Literally goosebumps when rock said And saying absolutely nothing 😂😂😂 Rock was menace on the mic Thank you wrestling bios for trip down the memory lane
Why WCW Nitro ropes from Black with Red Turnbuckle to 🍒 Red with Black turnbuckle? Trying to complete with Raw. Fun Fact in late 2000 Nitro using Thunder Blue Ropes then Mid Feb back to Red ropes then Final Nitro back to Black Ropes with red turnbuckle Although WCW using two occasion black rope with red turnbuckle (Great America Bash 2000 and Germany event) prior to Final Nitro
Say goodbye to The British Bulldog because it was his last match on Raw, RTW legend 😢
DAVEY BOY SMITH CHINLOCK!!!
Chinlocks in the sky.
Maybe, just maybe, Bios can cover WWF Insurrextion 2000 in May, if only so that we can get one last appearance from the Bulldog for this series, nine days before he leaves WWF for the last time. He even wins the Hardcore Title on that show!
It's hard to see him a send-off like that.
@TheLandofObscusion you know he has a big send off video planned for our lord and savior

Things I’ve learned from watching this nostalgic series and reliving the war:

Here in the U.K “telling porkie pies” or “telling porkies” means lies
And en route to the hospital, Jimmy Hart uttered only two words....

“And say absolutely nothing uhhhh.” 😂 Rock was a god on the mic.
Good thing HHH was chewing gum he was holding back laughing
@@kbhalacyor he was legit butt hurt. Him and Rock had a real life rivalry back then and was always trying to one up each other.
Wasn't Hunter a little offended by this, at least according to that episode of Young Rock? 😅🤣 Not sure how true it was though.
No, Hunter had no issues with this one. They both know that whatever Rock says is making them both a shitpile of money.
😃
No more Hall, no more Bulldog chinlocks, no Saturday Wright Fever. We've truly entered the dark days.
Alex comes back around September and sticks until the end thankfully.
We still have THE WALLLLLLLLL (I actually love him, Gone too soon)
“Is he constipated” Jerry Lawler is hilarious

I discovered this series almost 4 years ago while my wife was on vacation in Hawaii..i got all caught up in a weekend lol haven't missed a Thursday/Sunday since!
Wait, your wife left you at home and went to Hawaii… yeah she cheated
@kingrama2727 🤣😂🤣nah, my wife's not like yours and I keep my wife satisfied 😘
@@kingrama2727 100%. There's a whole Eddie Murphy skit from his stand up Raw about this very situation. It happens. It is known.
Hopefully you divorced her, I can't think of any other outcome man

That's how hhh talks in real life
I was totally wcw during this time but my God the difference side by side is insane

Me too buddy. Hindsight is 20/20, I also thought wrasslin was real 😂
Best part of my week. I love watching this every week.
I've been hooked since episode one..now it's all coming to an end soon..such a great trip
We still have a lot of good stuff coming.
American Badass Undertaker... Triple H and the Rock's long feud... Kurt Angle's rise to the top... Austin's return.
(I can't really think of any good WCW stuff from 2000.)
The DX Express... We all know what happens to that sucker when the Rattlesnake returns.
"Austin 3:16 says 'I just wrecked your bus!'"
a memorable moment sure, but apparently was a bit of a mess when they were taping the segment since it required a couple of takes due to something going wrong with the crane Stone Cold used to destroy the bus.
@@DasNordlicht91Austin has said that he almost killed himself at one point trying to operate the crane.
Ahmed Johnson attempting to cosplay as Vegeta and failing was not on my Reliving The War bingo card...
I use RtW to forget the troubles in my real life every week! Thank you so much for what you do!!!
Kurt Angle and British Bulldog teaming together. Talk about assembling the wrestling Avengers! They just need Blackman on their team!
Steve Blackman is the team, right arm, left arm, right leg, left leg
Benoit, Bret hart, Kurt angle, British bulldog
And glacier.
Too powerful
David Flair as Thanos.
I love the fact that both Lex and Buff were wearing Fubu. 😂😂😂
At this point, Fubu was still trendy….im sorry to say.
It was cringey when middle-aged white guys would wear it.
Fubu jerseys were the early 2000s Affliction shirts: meant for a certain audience, but worn by middle aged white guys.😂
Imagine wearing fubu at all..lol there's a reason they were in dollar stores..
I literally watch this every night before I go to sleep. It’s incredible.
Jeff Jarrett...
"Broke 300,000 guitars, never drew a dime."

Thanks for this. I was wondering how close we were to "mathematically impossible."
Now if you factor in standard probability of a WCW turn around it's been a mathematical impossibility for quite some time
@@andrewford7179 probably is gonna come when we get to the big reboot and the Bischoff/Russo era on Nitro and WWF hitting their stride on the way to Backlash 2000.
You need to apply STEINER MATH to this.
Thank you Wrestling Bios! Makes my night.
Companies should definitely be asking WB to come up with some catchy, funny jingles for them. The jingles in this series are some of the best ever
This has been a hell of a ride, my dude. Thank you.
Davey boy chin locking up in heaven RIP
Kane’s most badass attire here.
"Lets forget about your real life troubles for awhile" absolutely Ryan your channel is always, always, a bright spot on my day. Appreciate all you do brother

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Rock was different in 2000
I think you meant dying-uhhhhhh
It was his year

PREPARE YOURSELVES FOR THE STRAPATION DUDES!!
Luger! Luger! Luger! Luger!

Did they just air out the Lex Express and rechristen it as the DX Express?
They put Paul Bearer and Cactus Jack and the Rock on the bus!!!!!

Yup

It's funny how Dugan found the TV belt in a trash can weeks later... Did WCW travel with their trash?
It’s WCW 2000. Quit trying to apply logic to an illogical situation.
Pro wrestling bollocks at its best
If any company would ship their trash with them, it’s WCW
"Did WCW travel with their trash?"
Brian Knobbs appears every week, so yes.
All I want for Christmas is a video of all the David Flair jingles.
That "modified" Olympic Slam on Jericho was AWESOME!!!
Love and appreciate your work buddy. It’s my Thursday routine after work.
Imagine how sad it’s going to be when this series is over 😢
I know, i wonder how the creator of this channel will make a living
I got weed to smoke and now I'm watching this awesome channel ❤
That’s the life
Seek help for that insanely addictive hard drug
Eww
Cheers brother
Same 🤙
The lack of one on one matches on RAW isn't that surprising considering we are fast approaching the only WrestleMania in history without a one on one encounter
Hey man, that WM has Kat vs Terri in a stink face match, show some respect to 5* BANGER ;)
Actually, there was a singles match at Wrestlemania 2000...
Terri Runnels vs. The Kat in a Catfight.
The thumbnail foreshadowed Wrestlemania X8
5:19 "RIC FLAIR IS MY GRANDMA!!" Wut?
Taking alittle break while at work and catching some reliving the war always a great time
Favorite thing about Thursdays! Thank you for all you do!!
Teddy Long must’ve booked this whole Episode of Raw, cause if you know, you know Playa
Nah, there was no sight of The Undertaker
@ I’m taking about the tag team matches
I love watching these!! Been watching your videos for sometime now. Keep up the great work! 🤜🤛
16:37 there we go! Always pop for a hot return of the newest RTW classic. Also ~ the head cheese rap is absolute gold lol but then again, everything related to our master and idol, Shin Blackman, is gold.
That fanny pack is legendary. I hope I see people rocking it some day.
My favorite series on here! Thank you for all your hard work!
I love this series it’s like a Netflix show 😂❤
David flair song brings joy to my ears every time I hear it
This episode of Nitro kicked off their string of frequent ratings in the 2s. What an era this was lol.
Ahmed/Big T dressed like a Dragonball character 😂
Mr Package was on fire this episode
2 things coming up am I not excited for
1 - Mae Young giving birth to a hand
2 - Sid’s leg break
Don’t know which is gonna be worse to relive
It's Thursday night and you know what that means! Reliving The War is here again dude brother!
RTW during my gym workout? Hell yes!!
I had a brutal 4 day Arson trial this week...
Thank you for lightening up my week.
Its a good thing dustin had his golddust run because i dont think he ever would have had many fans without. He just never looked like someone that ever would of gotten over without it

Ive watched all RTW since day 1
Wait, that last picture of the Jam-Up Guy was with Bull Nakano??? Wow! She has lost a lot of weight over the years! Good for her!
Harris brothers have to have the most appearances on RTW while being the least relevant. I barely remember them from the attitude era.

He’ll have to go back to 9-5
@ well, there is the very small war between tna and wwe which was silly but yeah… 9-5
I wasn't ready for @9:57
Head Cheese music killed me 😂
