The new games have the best graphics and all but Smackdown HCTP had the best people's elbow. Matter fact, HCTP had the best animations for any move. The animations in the newer games look like robot chicken.
I remember playing this from my childhood, I used to do two people's elbow having both elbow pads be removed. Brings me back memories from my childhood when WWE video games were awesome, as Jerry Lawler used to say on commentary "it's the most electrifying move in all of sports entertainment the people's elbow.
Feels fair to agree that the PS2 version of that move was the best version of it, and time turned the Rock into Kurt Angle who clearly doesn't know how to best use that move... :D
Yes. I loved that game. Probably my favorite next to no mercy. I played it almost a yr straight without getting bored of it. And the storylines kept changing. By the yr mark, I thought I played all the possible outcomes, until something totally took me by surprise and made it exciting yet again. But the smkdn v raw series totally backpedaled. Like HCTP and SYM were too complicated.
Why was the running to each end of the ropes animation from the old games look more fluent and real than the newer games, the 2k18 and 19 were pretty good but the older ones still looked better 😂
RagingGamer exactly!! I was saying the same thing. How can you get that wrong it’s mind boggling!!? Lol! I’m glad someone else feels my pain. You’re the real MVP 👏🏽
The first Smackdown game was hands down the best!! The reason being is that the story mode was amazing!!! You could make different choices, the story changed every time you replayed it, and more than one person could play along in it. You and all your buddies could each be a character all while going through the mode. Sometimes you would end up in a feud with your friend or you may end up being tag partners, or maybe never interact at all together. It was awesome, amd easily the best part of any wrestling game I've ever played
I remember how often me, my cousins, and friends would go crazy whenever I hit this finisher back in WWF SmackDown!: Just Bring It. 😂 Good olʼ days! 👏🏼
All the games before 2007 were brilliant. When 2007 came out they changed the controls made them fuckin shit n hard to play I never bought a wwe game since then
@@denisezeidler4892 I'm sad he didn't show that Easter egg in this video, I remember the first time I did 2 people elbows and seen him take off both elbows pads, that made me wonder what would happen if I did a forth one
Funny on wrestlemania xix and wwe day of reckoning ( in my top 5 of wrestling games) it was so thunderous for a elbow drop and then they bounced in the air like they where in a boncey house 😂😂
I noticed that in the attempt to add more realism after 2012 , WWE actually toned down the moves to make them look more real. They completely forgot that it's a game and should be more fun , than realistic.
2k18 and 2k19 did it the best. Smooth animation taking off the elbow pad and the setup with the shoulder kick. Classic. Can still improve but overall very good
The ps1 & 2 era got the best wwe games ever, didn’t bought any of the 2k series and I guess the decision was right, the movement look weird as hell........
Lol. Honestly, that move was always stupid, not to mention how often it would get blocked because the Rock keeps running around, giving your opponent all the time in the world to block you. Ugh! Fun times.
I remember taking off both pads then a third invisible one in a few games haha
Yeah svr 2006
In HCTP
Lol..😂
They nailed it making him take off both pads
Did he raise eyebrow in third peoples elbow
Back in the day...if that game wasn't touched by THQ it was TRASH lol
Big facts
Dont Forget Yukks!
@Love it when they Call me Big Papa FACTS💯
@Love it when they Call me Big Papa 🤨🎤IS COOKING
@Love it when they Call me Big Papa true. The jumping around looked like a joke
The new games have the best graphics and all but Smackdown HCTP had the best people's elbow. Matter fact, HCTP had the best animations for any move. The animations in the newer games look like robot chicken.
Exactly
Yes but i also love smackdown vs raw 2007 both of hctp and svr07 have the best gameplay in my opinion..
Favorite wwe game
Sure bro
@PiK ok boomer
2011-2017 were struggle years for the People’s Elbow
Red Ranger WWE 12’ wtf was that
Lmao glad I wasn't the only one to peep that....how the hell you get worse as graphics progressed lmao
Legit said this. Whoever was in that body suit for the moves those years needs to be in prison
Kevin Marshall ellamayooooo😂😂
Red Ranger yeah what was going on with the last phase of the move it’s like they just didn’t care.
The old games were better back then like if you miss them
They were amazing and addictive
Then go play them.
Ben Lorentz of course they was addictive I had no choice but to play these 😭😭
The old thq ones on n64 were the best
Wwe 2k19 is propably better in everything but NOSTALGIA destroy common sense
1:58 .....we love only HERE COMES TO THE PAIN....
Kasi Rajan here comes the pain
Just bring it and shut your mouth was the best ones
@@doctordeath2551 shit on ur mouth is best "TWO"...
Its legit the same motion capture from Just Bring It through SVR 2010
That here comes the pain ppls elbow is stupid lit
Me too hahahaha
5:01
Takes off right elbow pad only to use the left elbow.
Did anyone even bother testing this game?
2:55
I'm fuccin done the elbow pad hit the turnbuccle
🤣
I'm done to
Lmaooo 😂😂😂😂
LOL!!!!!
The first smackdown in 2000 was a game changer. It was my favourite of any wrestling game from the late 90s.
africaRBG facts maybe cause I was so young. But then smack downs was everything

SmackDown 2 is legendary!
King Draper 1 & 2 I played constantly as a kid.
Mos def
I skipped school just to play it
Amen!
I remember I got smackdown 2 for Christmas in like 2nd grade. I played all the new game modes the rest of Christmas break. Good times :(
Smackdown just bring it
Smackdown shut your mouth
Smackdown here come the pain
Got the best people elbow ever hands down
Feels fair to agree that the PS2 version of that move was the best version of it, and time turned the Rock into Kurt Angle who clearly doesn't know how to best use that move... :D
THQ and HCTP we need you guys back
SD Here Comes the Pain hands down was the best People’s Elbow!
2k11-current is trash

By the yr mark, I thought I played all the possible outcomes, until something totally took me by surprise and made it exciting yet again. But the smkdn v raw series totally backpedaled. Like HCTP and SYM were too complicated.
yes you are right
Not sure how it got so bad over time. It should have got better not worse
They started relying too heavily on mocap instead of hand drawn animations (which were much more accurate)
I wanna blame it on 2k sports. Cause it looks the worse once it showed the 2k era
2k makes everything worst lmao
Paul Liddement Everything about the games somehow get gradually worse and more inaccurate every year
im saying bro wtf

@@MsLaunchpad ✊🏾✊🏾😎
2:06 the Best of all time *SmackDown Pain*
Agree
Thats literally Smackdown Shut Your Mouth. Best people's elbow.
The most electricifying man in sports entertainment. Thank you for making a simple move look impactful. WWE aint been the same since you left
Here comes the pain..Best of all time!!
1:26 why does he looks like Barack Obama lol
Ton Ton barry out here giving the Peoples Medicaid lol

Nobody:
Tazz: THE PEOPLE’S ELBOW THE PEOPLE’S ELBOW
😂😂 I would use the rock every time just to laugh at him
Lmao
I can imagine TAZ shouting
Michael Cole: HURRY! HURRY!
smackdown here comes the pain 😔❤️
A remaster is coming. 👌🏻
Really?
@@User9109 It's a rumor, but looks real.
I am still playing smackdown here comes the pain 😋
0:56 Smackdown Just Bring It BY FAR HAD THE BEST DAMN MOST ELECTRIFYING MOVE IN SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT HISTORY. Don't at me.
Your right that game is great
Just bring it was so lit
Love when they repeat the move name. “Stunner stunner” 😂
They didn't include WWF Attitude. As it happens, it's the only game in which it's called the corporate elbow.
It’s the most electrifying move in sports entertainment today! The People’s Elbow!
I remember how often me, my cousins, and friends would go crazy whenever I hit this finisher back in WWF SmackDown!: Just Bring It. 😂
Good olʼ days! 👏🏼
No matter how insanely 2K has evolved in terms of graphics....its 2019..and they still make the wrestler's hair like Chinese Crispy Noodles🤣🤣🤣💯💯💯
That old rock here looks like teenage samoa joe lol
4:55 I mean, what the f**k!
JasonGL *** that shit was dope lol
😂
But this was probably the last good game from WWE. For some reason , I liked All Stars.
He Forgotten The Rock People's Elbow on WWF ATTITUDE!!!!🙂🙂🙂🍻🍻
nobody:
The rock's people elbow in allstars
Vendetta Gaming lmaooooo
😂😂😂😂
That ish was just reckless for no reason lol
Back in 2003 i had wm19 for the game cube.. Good times
You forgot WWF Warzone and WWF attitude and WWF wrestlemania 2000. The People’s elbow were featured in those games.
The finishers of 2000s were so EPIC.
The finisher never recovered from
"Legends of WrestleMania's"
disastrous version lol
Smackdown 1&2... The best ever no bullshit... Playstation 1 was so smooth with both those smackdowns
All the games before 2007 were brilliant. When 2007 came out they changed the controls made them fuckin shit n hard to play I never bought a wwe game since then
Man...that All Stars People's Elbow!
Early Smackdown games had the best set up/run animations. GameCube games (WM19 -) had by far the best elbow delivery.
Shut your mouths rock was the most lifelike looking rock. The facial capture was phenomenal!
Who remembers the what happens when you do the people's elbow for the 3rd time in a match
The rock gets constipated
@@thegoat6836 he does look constipated 😂😂
He does the Classic Rock Eyebrow move then does the People’s Elbow.
@@denisezeidler4892 I'm sad he didn't show that Easter egg in this video, I remember the first time I did 2 people elbows and seen him take off both elbows pads, that made me wonder what would happen if I did a forth one
@Marcus Reed nope
WrestleMania 2000 N64 was the very first PEOPLE'S ELBOW on a game!
Raw for the Xbox, Raw 2 for the Xbox, WrestleMania 21 for the Xbox and Royal Rumble for the Dreamcast are all MISSING.
Seriously my opinion it's all the same but I want the one where he slides pauses then drops it. That was awesome.
Bloody hell, these bring back so many memories
7:07 how did you manage to do the people's elbow finisher while taking the elbow pad off while using an alternate attire ?
WWE 2K19 people's elbow was amazing
If you're having a bad day, remember the rock used to look like a wii avatar in certain video games occasions
Funny on wrestlemania xix and wwe day of reckoning ( in my top 5 of wrestling games) it was so thunderous for a elbow drop and then they bounced in the air like they where in a boncey house 😂😂
I gave Stacy Keibler the entire Rock moves template on Day of Reckoning and she straight dominated a 30 man Rumble 😭😭😭. (Came in as number 17).
THE ROCKS HEAD ON THE LEFT IS KILLING ME LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
2:42 Booker T on the ground gasping like a fish out of water 😂
People's elbow were more electrifying in old games TBH
Outta the early 2000s Day of Reckoning has the best people's elbow miss that game!
here comes the pain.. most iconic wwe games
Can’t believe I just watched all of it!!
Only the real OGs remember No Mercy
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾✋🏾✋🏾✋🏾✋🏾✋🏾✋🏾✋🏾✋🏾✋🏾✋🏾✋🏾✋🏾✋🏾✋🏾✋🏾
“The Tiger “ Rocky, Jr. finishing move.
2:27 anybody else thought he was about to run right past him?
The Rock’s neck in 2000 is legendary
(Jerry lawler voice) This....is...the most....electrifying move..in sports entertainment today....peoples elbow!!
It’s crazy how the people’s elbo went down hill once 2k got the rights to it
The newer 2k games he looks so goofy and unnatural before he hits the elbow until 18 and 19 it looks right
Smackdown had the best realization & visuals for the PEOPLES ELBOW
That elbow had me on the floor the whole match pressing reverse button
The most electrifying move in sports entertainment
When he pointed his fingers in the direction.
I always say "Woo Waa!"
Wow 2k absolutely ruined it 😂
Daniel Gregory nothing new
Back then wwe was still fun to watch before everyone retired
It's all PG now.
*Day of Reckoning the best wrestling game ever!*
I noticed that in the attempt to add more realism after 2012 , WWE actually toned down the moves to make them look more real. They completely forgot that it's a game and should be more fun , than realistic.
@PiK a 10 year old like you can never understand what pleasure you felt when you played HCTP with your buddies.
Shouldn't it be 2003 on the thumbnail instead of 2013?
No it should be 1999.
Yup I realised it was mistake my bad it changed now 😀
@@Bestintheworld225 you missed out WWF 2000 n64!
I feel bad for anyone that played wrestling games after svr07 and for anyone that never played here comes the pain
Day of reckoning with the sound effects lol
The very first one.... was literally the best. It was explosive and in real time.
The 1st Smackdown animations are better the the recent ones smh lol.
2000 can t really stop laughing😂😂😂😂
Loved No Mercy. 🐐
I missed the people's elbow for the rock nobody have done it for those days damnit 👿
2k18 and 2k19 did it the best. Smooth animation taking off the elbow pad and the setup with the shoulder kick. Classic.
Can still improve but overall very good
The ps1 & 2 era got the best wwe games ever, didn’t bought any of the 2k series and I guess the decision was right, the movement look weird as hell........
Man I remember the soundtrack for Day of Reckoning.
1. Smackdown
2. Smackdown 2
3. Here comes the pain
The best games ever
Smackdown here come the pain is the best
THQ will always be the best
Here comes the pain was just perfect imo
The Rock looks Asain in WWE WrestleMania 19 GameCube system
HCTP always my favourite the cinematic and epic damage sound effects even can copy opponent finisher easily
No mercy best wwe game hands down
The entire smackdown series 😍
Lol. Honestly, that move was always stupid, not to mention how often it would get blocked because the Rock keeps running around, giving your opponent all the time in the world to block you. Ugh! Fun times.
Here comes the pain was the best WWE game period.. had brock n goldberg in their primes.
The story lines were also the best, choosing to attack your opponents after match in story lines
WWF No Mercy N64 people's elbow was Awesome too!!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 He literally left out WWF Attitude N64 People's Elbow.. SMh
2000's smackdown is a priceless game
Smack Down "Here Come The Pain" is my Favorite
The 1st game Rock had the wide neck going for himself.
Definitely depreciated. I might buy a GameCube just to play THQs version.
