Booker T not getting the strap during this feud is one of the biggest misses in booking history. Dude was MONSTER over, and it wasn't because of Triple H, that's for damn sure. He was huge over from the moment he came into the Fed, because people, myself included, loved him so much in WCW and he just kept getting better.
The reaction back then was abit more ambiguous when triple h won. But if the storyline happened now, with the race overtones, if triple H won people would have killed the whole show with boos. It would be like if Triple H won against Daniel Bryan and he adds himself to the main event.
@@Dantethedemonkiller If the story line happened now, it would probably be almost the same but with racial overtones replaced with something like "people like you, that can't cut it in the WWE, that had to settle for the _other_ company." This would be the only change they'd have to make, really. But at that point, it's hardly any different than calling him a "B+ player," so your guess on the audience reaction would probably be accurate.
Yeah Trips wasn't the one calling the shots, Vince was. To see a real Reign of Terror people should check out NWA TNA, Jeff Jarrett was the damn owner and he pushed himself just too much and every time there was a ridiculous ref bump and a guitar shot, finished and 1, 2, 3... And he was a heel only because he got so much go-away heat as a babyface that he leaned on the hate... Did everything people didn't want to see, actually just like Vince has done quite many times himself too.... Huh.... never really realized that Jarrett only hated Vince because he was JUST LIKE HIM, and vics versa ...
@@KalmoK you're kidding yourself if you think Triple H didn't have stroke, the dude got Patterson axed. While he didn't own the company he was absolutely calling the shots. How else do you explain shit like his 06 Cena feud where he ends the feud by jabroniing Cena and Edge and turning face?
Man….everyone had their own theme that fit for their own character….undertaker Eddie Guerrero booker t triple h John Cena etc….nowadays they all damn near sound alike
You can listen to the attitude era playlist on Spotify and know almost every guy by song,but if you listen to current songs it's a mess,they've got Sheamus coming out to something that isn't written in my face for some reason ,very questionable
Fun Fact : The whole "People like you" promo is a current day (at the time of this RAW) to Ron Simmons and Vader with Harley Race sometime in 92 or 93 I believe
Rewatching this long episode with footage was as fun as listening to the boys decoding it for the first time. Awesome stuff! P.S. I was sad you kind of left out the glow stick line from Tony :P
Unpopular opinion but Rock vs Austin III is my favorite of the trilogy. The match is so much fun and seriously interesting. Austin kicking out of multiple Rock bottoms and still fighting back one last time was excellent. Such a great match for me
When you feel like a weirdo for watching wrestling but then a Dragon Ball Z Ultimate Battle 22 ad shows up and and it just makes you feel a little better. That's what I'm feeling right about now, brother.
If Scott Steiner had the promo skills of him in Big Poppa Pump mode but wrestled as good as he used to in the early 90s, he'd legitimately be the greatest of all time
28:45 in 2K24 they have "Big Poppa Pump" Scott Steiner" but you can only unlock him in MyFaction. (He is usable outside MyFaction after he is unlocked though)
RE: HBK's shirt at 48:30 - I actually had that shirt, partially because of HBK, partially because I'm a preacher's kid and 2003 me was into that whole deal (bleh). Can confirm the print was just that shitty on all copies made of it.
@@freakfoxvevo7915 generic christian bookstore stuff. I think that's about all he wore until around the middle of the Jericho feud when he got the 'all things are possible' shirt.
[Intro] It's been a long time (I won't stop) Uh, uh ('Til it's all mine) Get it, get it, get it Come on (No, you won’t take this from me) Uh, yeah (I work too hard) [Verse] Ay, yo, it's my life, my time My rights, my rhymes My grind, my struggle Hustle, sweat, and my blood, too (Woo!)

46:49 If they're not gonna put Booker T over at Wrestlemania 19, at least make the loss dirty. Ref bump, sledgey, easy peasy. Hell! Old Man Ric Flair was there! Then build into something else. Sadly the feud just fizzled out and Terra Ryzing retained.
0:31 My school made us watch the 9/11 attacks live in the classroom on the TV while I was in 7th grade... So when Muhammad Hussan debuted a few years later... 😔
the sad part is Muhammad Hussan was both slimy foreign heel but also 'im just an islamic dude I just want to wrestle, stop stereotyping me' but then Vince decided 'it would be funny if we made him gain a gang and try to murder Undertaker' which then alligned with a real terrorist attack in London when Smackdown aired...
Brock actually had busted a shooting star press on OVW, and somehow I remember he did it in practice before Wtestlemania started but not sure... anyway he actually knew how to bust it but I bet it was just nervousness or something that made him fail. Dude was just freakishly athetic, people aren't supposed to be able to be so quick, athletic and strong at the same time ffs.... Plus he actually went to the UFC and won the heavyweight title, so he were also a legit 'Tough Guy'... People always talk about old wrestlers like Haku etc. when naming tough guys and Brock never is even included... Nah DUUUDES he wasn't a Tough Guy Jack, he was a REAL HULKAMANIAC!!!(aka badass)... So WATCHA GONNA DO WHEN THE BEAST RUNS WILD ON YOU?!
21:36 I don’t know why, but Austin just pacing back and forth outside of the arena with his truck will always make me laugh And then again at 34:04 when coach approaches Austin’s truck for an interview and he’s just staring at the arena entrance 🤣
I've been playing HCTP on my phone an of course been using Scott steiner love the fact they talk about the game in this episode 😂😂😂 best wrestling game ever made
I remember I was in 2nd grade and still playing Wrestlemania 2000 on N64 when 9/11 happened. I created a wrestler called America Man who was red white and blue, like hair clothes and everything. He had Hogan’s music and I just gave him all my favorite moves. I also created Osama bin laden gave him Chaz’s music and would just beat the shit out of him every day with America Man.
The Triple H trivia is sort of correct. They’re thinking of 3 WMs earlier though. 16, not 19. That was the first Mania to definitively end on an emphatic unambiguous heel victory. As opposed to 8’s fuckfinish and 9’s swerve. Since then there’s also been Miz at 27, Brock at 34, and Roman at 3 in a row. I wouldn’t count Austin’s turn or Seth’s cash-in, personally. Since they weren’t exactly “the heel” going in.
The only other thing I can think of is that he was a "WCW Guy" and Vince wasn't too fond of those Y'know, aside from Trips, Jericho, Austin, Foley, Taker, Big Show etc. I wonder what the difference could be there 🤔
@@makeitthrough_ Steiner, DDP, Goldberg (for the most part), Tazz, Rhyno, RVD. Maybe race played a part, but don't pretend it was the only, or biggest factor. If you were made in a different company you got buried by a WWF guy, that's just how it was.

“I don’t even know what the theme songs to the shows anymore, I don’t even know who the wrestlers theme songs are anymore.”
For real.
All the themes are just base WWE 2k CAW songs now. They almost NEVER have vocals.
Man….everyone had their own theme that fit for their own character….undertaker Eddie Guerrero booker t triple h John Cena etc….nowadays they all damn near sound alike
@@_sintrell The only ones that had recognizable themes were NXT (2013-2020) and now AEW.

Asuka's theme is the only one I could pick out of a lineup
That shot of Triple H with the big gold belt and Flair in that robe is godly.

I think Jeff Hardy's gimmick was a summer student house painter.
If I could thumbs up this comment more then once I would.
That episode of Beavis & Butthead when they got high on paint thinner at Mr. Anderson's house lol
I’m so disappointed that they didn’t bring up Rock’s greatest heel line ever: “Oh I’ll be sure to come back when the Lakers beat the Kings in May.”
They skipped over so much in that segment
@@Juanito825 It’s genuinely a damn shame cause it’s sooooo fucking good
Finally... The Rock HAS come back to Toron.......Toronnnnnt........To run his mouth on ALL your CANDY ASSES.
His greatest one was in Toronto. Only Shawn Michaels got more heat in Canada than the Rock.
