Also, people forget what an incredible shape Paul Wight was in as a young dude. he had to be in his mid 20s when he came out. But he was an absolute unit. He had that thickness, heft, AND had some kind of definition.
I literally just watched Halloween Havoc 1995 last night. I couldn’t stop laughing at the Yeti and Giants weird sandwich bear hug on Hogan. WCW in 95 was goofy as hell.
If you think about it though, the dungeon of doom really did kill Hulkamania. They brought forth a dark side never seen in him before, foreshadowing what would become Hollywood Hogan. Kayfabe speaking, the DOD implanted the illness that would eventually end Hulkamania for some time.
Jim Ross: “It’s gonna be a slobber knocker!” “Stone Cold! Stone Cold!” “Bigawwd!” “As god as my witness HE-IS-BROKEN-IN-HALF!!” Tony Schiavone: “It’s the YET-TAYY!” “That’ll put butts in seats”
Jim Ross pre-WWF : A great commentator who made it seem like a real sport. Jim Ross after signing for WWF : A parody of a commentator who makes it all seem like fake shitty entertainment and not like a sport any more.
Tony Schiavone deserves an award for having the patience of a saint to tolerate all that stuff in WCW and giving all that enthusiasm to his commentary while having to call commentary on crappy wrestling for years. Poor guy
You just made my day!!!! The Yetay is the funniest creation WCW ever created. It is even funnier than the Shockmaster. Thank you so much for this. I needed a good laugh today.
The Giant being The Son of Andre was actually a super cool angle. Bischoff should have signed him to a mega deal after he proved himself as a serious talent and just ran with it. Also letting Jericho walk was dumb. They basically gave The Big Show and Y2J to WWF as a Gift just when Vince was starting to win the War. 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
The thing with the Dungeon of Doom was, Kevin Sullivan has said repeatedly over the years since that he created the faction in order to appease Hogan, and make him comfortable, as Hogan was still used to the comic book, goofy, cartoon style characters of the WWF when he was working for Vince. I don't think Sullivan even liked the faction much.
I will say: I liked the idea of Jimmy Hart messing with the contract. It always bothered me that a champ could theoretically just get themselves DQ'd then walk off with the championship until a no DQ match was scheduled.
The flip side is also true if the title could change on DQ. One of the guys to just get one of their friends to “attack” them and get the champ disqualified and win the title in a cheap way like that.
@ShadowAngel so i have trouble with words and this type of thing does happen to me often and im trying to get better with it. Also shouldn't it be wrote instead of write
Best Wrestling Bios intro ever..... seriously. Also, as absurd as it is, thank you for treating this bio like every other one you've done. With seriousness, professionalism and class.
This is why I love this channel bc you are not afraid to do bios/videos on a one time character an mid card guys bc most channels want to do the big names an ect do keep up the great work 👍🏻
How the hell could they have ever expected him to wrestle in that costume? Also given Hogan's political clout and creative control one can only assume he booked it so be dry humped by Yeti. The evidence is mounting, people! 😂
This man can do a channel about anything and make it interesting. Next video might be about Mean Gene's 1800 hotline calls, 3 Count or Lash Leroux lol. Who knows🤷♂️. Survey says: one more for Wrestling Bios👍👍
I actually prefered WCW pre WWF wrestlers switching sides. I used to watch WCW on ITV in the UK back in the early 90s. Sting, Luger, Flair, Andersons, Vader, Steiner bros, The Great Muta. First Starcages are classics. Anyone else stayed up to watch it at 1am on late Monday nights, school the next day too.
The one thing I wanna say is maybe “the giant” falling off the roof was meant to portray how strong he was that he could survive a fall off roof. 🤷🏻♂️
Michael Buffer describes him as "the man who literally rose from the dead" when he walked down to the ring at Halloween Havoc, so he's some sort of Zombie Jesus giant 🤣
The Yeti probably had one order in his head as he was walking out, don't do anything to Hulk that might be physical or risk the slightest injury, hence the humping
It makes so much more sense that Giant Gonzalez was supposed to be the Yeti. I mean, he wore the ridiculous outfit in WWE, so he could have had the same look and just called the Yeti. I never knew this. Still, doesn't excuse what they went with.
They should bring back the Gimmick Battle Royale at WrestleMania and call it the YETTAY Memorial Battle Royale. Ron Reis actually made me a fan of Chris Benoit because of that Nitro match they had in 1996 when Benoit just took him apart for about six minutes before superplexing him off the top for the win. Seeing a small guy squash a giant was basically unheard of.
Love the opening 🤣🤣🤣..this is by far my favorite RUclips wrestling channel. Thank You Wrestling Bios for all your great work and entertainment ✌😁...omg..the ending credits..🤣🤣Fabulous as well 🤣😂🤣😂🤣✌✌
Love this channel, my favourite by a mile. The script the content everything.....is there a chance we get some ROH or NJPW careers like Aj,Joe,Finn or omega As most of them end up in the wwe.
"Get in the ring and enjoy your time with hogan" "Hehe......" "What's wrong?" "Nothing. Thought of a good way to make all participants enjoy this segment"
I'm gonna need the full track to "It's The Yet-Tay!"
Fuckin right ya heard me
yup
Someone will create one, or we will find it!!!!!!!!! It must be somewhere locked away within the RUclips Archives of "Remixes" of old.
Schiavone needs a full WHW episode dedicated to the YET-TAY
Terrance Addison hahah but it’s not the same without the video to go with it
*An Egyptian mummy, trapped in a plastic 'block of ice', from the Himalayans, called The YETI. I love WCW*
Dont forget... Doing a bear hug from behind which looks like butt s-x while choking the giant instead of Hulk.
@@Lordani66 Well, gently rubbing the Giant's shoulders, at any rate.
Yeah really wtf WCW lol
Duck Tales....
*Yet-tay
"you get your first big break, and you're a mummy called the yeti"
Story of my life.
Better than being a mommy called the Yet tie.
Better than the guy that became known as Eugene 😂😂😂
And on top of it,your finisher is a definition of a rape. Lol
😂❤😂 We've all been there..
Could've been Beaver Cleavage 🦫
The only channel brave enough to do a Yeti bio. Great stuff my friend!!!!
Large23 I agree with you
@D M you cared enough to click on the video, as well as comment on it didn't you?
It's actually yetay
@@lordkiza8838 if you want to be pedantic, it's actually yet-tay
Ever since the covid pandemic I've learned tons of stuff .I never thought I needed to know .but some how im satisfied with it lol ...great 👍 videos
Should have teamed The Shockmaster with The Yeti
instagram.com/p/CBGTXtQATHj/?igshid=ez1vv352s6bo
Maybe soon...
and the Black Scorpion.
And robocop
and Knuckles
El DANDY!....
EL DANNNNDAAAAAY....
This channel has been building towards this. The single most important moment in the history of 90's pro wrestling. The debut of "THE YE-TAY!"
😂😂
No, that was the shock master
“Having his way with the Hulkster! 😂😂😂😂
"That doesn't work for me BroooAAAARRRGGGHHHHH"
Also, people forget what an incredible shape Paul Wight was in as a young dude. he had to be in his mid 20s when he came out. But he was an absolute unit. He had that thickness, heft, AND had some kind of definition.
I literally just watched Halloween Havoc 1995 last night. I couldn’t stop laughing at the Yeti and Giants weird sandwich bear hug on Hogan. WCW in 95 was goofy as hell.
Very goofy lmaooo how WCW overcome this horrible segment at the time I don't know
How did you watch it?
Lol
1995 WWF and WCW was Disney Channel vs Nickelodeon.
All wrestling was goofy as hell until the nWo happened
“Walks right over and joins in on the action.” Whelp, that’s one way of putting it.
If you think about it though, the dungeon of doom really did kill Hulkamania.
They brought forth a dark side never seen in him before, foreshadowing what would become Hollywood Hogan.
Kayfabe speaking, the DOD implanted the illness that would eventually end Hulkamania for some time.
Never thought about it but you’re right.
Kevin Sullivan told Hulk Hogan to his face that the only person who could beat Hulk was Hulk himself, 8-9 months later, he was proven right.
Jim Ross:
“It’s gonna be a slobber knocker!”
“Stone Cold! Stone Cold!”
“Bigawwd!”
“As god as my witness HE-IS-BROKEN-IN-HALF!!”
Tony Schiavone:
“It’s the YET-TAYY!”
“That’ll put butts in seats”
It’s! Sting! Itsss Sting! I’ll take that over anything.
Jim Ross pre-WWF : A great commentator who made it seem like a real sport.
Jim Ross after signing for WWF : A parody of a commentator who makes it all seem like fake shitty entertainment and not like a sport any more.
Total classic
"This is what WCW is all about" Tony moments before Fingerpoke of Doom
@@handsolo1209 He could still call it like a true sport anytime he wanted
*"The Yetay. Is taller. Then a Giant!."*
Look at the size of this man
That remix at the beginning was hilarious loved it instantly
Stick around for the house remix during the credits!
@@WrestlingBios The house remix is funnier.
LMAO.
"Having his way with the Hulkster."
I'm dead.
Hogan was my hero. Yeti ruined my childhood
Whose Ret-tay for the Yet-Tay?
Lmao good one 😂😂
Lol nice 😂
Me.
🤣
LOL
I'm dancing to the YET-TAY's musical intro.
Everyone: "giant we thought you were dead!"
The giant: "I had an extra guy"
Jet jaguar i had an extra turn
They're called "free dudes"
He had a green mushroom in his pocket. Wah-Hoo!!
@JV Harbin just like on a video game. Super Mario or Sonic the Hedgehog or something lol.
Say what you like about Hogan or Cena, they never no-sold falling off a skyscraper!
Tony Schiavone deserves an award for having the patience of a saint to tolerate all that stuff in WCW and giving all that enthusiasm to his commentary while having to call commentary on crappy wrestling for years. Poor guy
The Yeti is better than anything he has to tolerate in AEW
He was likely paid very handsomely, so i doubt he cared too much.
“AND DA YETAY!!!” Tony Schiavone 😂 Classic
You just made my day!!!! The Yetay is the funniest creation WCW ever created. It is even funnier than the Shockmaster. Thank you so much for this. I needed a good laugh today.
To this day, when I’m in a store or camping and I see a Yeti Cooler, I shout “It’s a YETAY”!!
That intro. I cant atop laughing 😂😂😂
Me too lol
Thats why WCW was so good. It's retarded, but retarded in a great way. I still remember this perfectly 24 years (whatever it has been) later.
The Giant being The Son of Andre was actually a super cool angle. Bischoff should have signed him to a mega deal after he proved himself as a serious talent and just ran with it. Also letting Jericho walk was dumb. They basically gave The Big Show and Y2J to WWF as a Gift just when Vince was starting to win the War. 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Lmao, I remember actually buying into The Giant being Andre's son! I fell for it, hook, line, & sinker!
Dominic Omegon origin of jerishow
@midniteryder lol what? Eddie Guerrero, Rey Mysterio, Booker T were waaaayyyy more successful than the Big Show.
Y2j coming to wwe and tazz the build up was huge
Especially tazz electrifying moment
I loved the Giant more than the Big Show, god I can't stand that name for him.
"You first big break and you're a mummy called The Yeti".
The Super Giant Ninja. They must of asked a 2 year old for that name. Classic.
You deserve an award for finding a way to make an almost 20 minute video on the yeti.
The thing with the Dungeon of Doom was, Kevin Sullivan has said repeatedly over the years since that he created the faction in order to appease Hogan, and make him comfortable, as Hogan was still used to the comic book, goofy, cartoon style characters of the WWF when he was working for Vince. I don't think Sullivan even liked the faction much.
"While Hulk Hogan turns heel cuz he lost his mustache" 🤣 honestly I can see this happening IRL
I will say: I liked the idea of Jimmy Hart messing with the contract. It always bothered me that a champ could theoretically just get themselves DQ'd then walk off with the championship until a no DQ match was scheduled.
The flip side is also true if the title could change on DQ. One of the guys to just get one of their friends to “attack” them and get the champ disqualified and win the title in a cheap way like that.
Tbh I really enjoy the monster truck idea in retrospective, this is the ridiculous stuff that used to make pro wrestling so much fun.
It was great cross-promotion
See the Monster Truck match should of been earlier in the night so the suspense of the giant being dead...Oh who am i kidding it was stupid lol
@ShadowAngel so i have trouble with words and this type of thing does happen to me often and im trying to get better with it.
Also shouldn't it be wrote instead of write
I know, if the pace of the show had been more balanced... Yeah, you’re right. It was stupid, but all things considered, it was also... Amazing. 😁
this was so horrid...but 20 some years later, its a rare classic...like that pure gold Yet-Tay remix!!
20 or 30 years?
Now we know who panic bought all the toilet roll, it was the Yetaaaay in aisle 5 😂
LoL
Is that a head he’s got or a stump?!~Bobby “The Brain” Heenan
3:35 - "That's not going to work for me, brother." - Hulk Hogan
Best Wrestling Bios intro ever..... seriously.
Also, as absurd as it is, thank you for treating this bio like every other one you've done.
With seriousness, professionalism and class.
This is why I love this channel bc you are not afraid to do bios/videos on a one time character an mid card guys bc most channels want to do the big names an ect do keep up the great work 👍🏻
My first thought was "That's a mummy"
Mine was “That’s a really big mummy!”
Mine was"wtf is that thing"
"It's the Yet-Tay". Lol.
It’s a mum may
Same
"To understand what this was really all about."
Me - wasn't it all because of cocaine?
Acid
What's Tony Schiavone's favorite meal?
Spaghe-TAY!
😂🤣
His favorite character in Fast & Furious is Let-TAY!
@@wassupguy1 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh, God....when social distancing was really needed with this gimmick
Lol, and the yeti would cause a toilet roll shortage just like Corona lol
@@swfcocs1 I'm trying hard to watch this without laughing every few minutes
@@at3479 lol, was the yeti actually meant to be a serious gimmick? Surely to God not...
Im laughing already and the video’s only just started. 😂 Thank you for this.
Based on the intro alone, this is already my favorite Wrestling Bios video.
This is quickly becoming my favourite RUclips channel. Every video is fascinating and incredibly well done.
How the hell could they have ever expected him to wrestle in that costume?
Also given Hogan's political clout and creative control one can only assume he booked it so be dry humped by Yeti. The evidence is mounting, people! 😂
Getting pounded by a seizing mummy called the yeti is every woman's wet dream
“Let the Yeti hump me, brother”
The real question is why is he covered in dookie stains?
@@GrooviestQ 🤣
God yes, the bio of a legend we didn't know we wanted, but we all definitely needed. Long live.......DA YET-TAY!
The mid-90s had the best wrestling gimmicks.
That was good entertainment.
I think the culmination was USWA with the Macho Warrior Ric Hogan
6:14 That glowing shape is awfully suggestive. They were foreshadowing the Yetay's true purpose right from the beginning!
This man can do a channel about anything and make it interesting. Next video might be about Mean Gene's 1800 hotline calls, 3 Count or Lash Leroux lol. Who knows🤷♂️. Survey says: one more for Wrestling Bios👍👍
Lash Leroux 😂😂😂😂🤘
The 900 line is actually a great idea I’d watch it 😂
I actually prefered WCW pre WWF wrestlers switching sides. I used to watch WCW on ITV in the UK back in the early 90s. Sting, Luger, Flair, Andersons, Vader, Steiner bros, The Great Muta. First Starcages are classics. Anyone else stayed up to watch it at 1am on late Monday nights, school the next day too.
The Yeti is so over in the past few years. who would have guessed?
As an Egyptian mummy, we usually choose to identify as a Yeti from the Himalayas. I dont know why thats confusing to you people.
I loved the fact that in the beginning of the video the Hulkster looked concerned like he knew the Yet-tay was gonna have its way with him. 😆
17 minutes on the YE-TAY. I gotta see this.
Omg I remember that guy!! Lol thank u for unlocking old memories
Please keep doing these videos. Your hitting the spot with making us relive our childhood memories thank you so much!!!
The one thing I wanna say is maybe “the giant” falling off the roof was meant to portray how strong he was that he could survive a fall off roof. 🤷🏻♂️
Michael Buffer describes him as "the man who literally rose from the dead" when he walked down to the ring at Halloween Havoc, so he's some sort of Zombie Jesus giant 🤣
I love this page, found it yesterday
How did you make almost 20 mins out of this? You are great!
Good Lord, I haven't laughed that hard in a minute. Thank you, sir.
Hogan should have let stories play out more instead of just burying talent every time
That was the problem, he thought a lot more about himself than the promotion
Hogan is the 🐐
The YEH'TAY dry humped him man...of course Hogan burried him
Wow. What an intro. I'm in the hospital and I almost gushed out in accidental laughter.
Get well soon!
This is why I subscribed, this is great stuff. The Yeté!!!
I liked Reese as part of the flock. With Billy Kidman riding his shoulders. Decent giant to give other people a decent win.
The Yeti probably had one order in his head as he was walking out, don't do anything to Hulk that might be physical or risk the slightest injury, hence the humping
He forgot that he was a dark mystical character that came out a block of ice. Lol
That video made my day. That triple hug between Hogan, the giant and ye-Tay is incrediblely funny .
The super giant ninja wtf lmao lmao and that remix intro lmao
It makes so much more sense that Giant Gonzalez was supposed to be the Yeti. I mean, he wore the ridiculous outfit in WWE, so he could have had the same look and just called the Yeti. I never knew this. Still, doesn't excuse what they went with.
I was watching this live at a friends house, we went from The Giant falling off a building to a YETAYYYYY (MUMMY)
That’s a logical show and a very logical story.
I still think it's funny that this video is longer than the Yeti was on TV.
This was the best intro in the history of our sport.
Almost choked on my aero laughing at him turning up as a ninja. Great work with that timing.
Now that I’m older and look back on this old wcw stuff. The dungeon of doom was dumb and corny as hell smh
Saying that gives the impression you thought it was awesome when you were a kid lol
Its way better then todays wwe thats like watching paint dry.
I watched it when I was a kid and thought it was corny then.
@@anthonybidgood8764 it was STILL better than anything on tv today
Yetayyyyy
I really enjoy all of your videos but this yet-tay intro song is the greatest thing on earth.
Hogan without a mustache is like Stone cold steve Austin without his goatee and bald head
Wrestling Bios vids always have the best bumper music imo, however THIS video has the BEST intro I've ever heard
That is not a Yet-Tay. That is a Mum-May.
Correctimundo. 👍
They should bring back the Gimmick Battle Royale at WrestleMania and call it the YETTAY Memorial Battle Royale. Ron Reis actually made me a fan of Chris Benoit because of that Nitro match they had in 1996 when Benoit just took him apart for about six minutes before superplexing him off the top for the win. Seeing a small guy squash a giant was basically unheard of.
The Yeti, one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. Should be inducted into the Hall of Fame asap.
The Ye Tay 😂
That "Yetayyy" remix at the beginning of the video is fire 🔥. 😂🤣😄
JR: "He's huge, whoever he is".
The first 30 seconds could be its own stand alone video, and I'd love it!
This was your best intro ever lmao
As always great video can wait for the next one
all of human history has led to this moment
Love the opening 🤣🤣🤣..this is by far my favorite RUclips wrestling channel. Thank You Wrestling Bios for all your great work and entertainment ✌😁...omg..the ending credits..🤣🤣Fabulous as well 🤣😂🤣😂🤣✌✌
This is my favorite wrestling channel!
A Mummy named after an ice monster that walks like Frankenstein....
WCW 1996 everyone.
It was the end of 1995
Being born in 1999 and watching WCW on the WWE network they put anything on television back in the day
17 minute bio of the Yeti! I never thought I'd say that. 🤣🤣🤣
just wait The Shockmaster is next lol
Akow ruclips.net/video/yTQRwdIx0z4/видео.html they have one hahahha
Love this channel, my favourite by a mile. The script the content everything.....is there a chance we get some ROH or NJPW careers like Aj,Joe,Finn or omega As most of them end up in the wwe.
Whenever i see Yeti
I remember Jack - The Jobber
OMG that intro was outstanding. Someone needs to make a loop of that that doesn't end lol. Great vip as per! Thanks for these.
*GREAT VID AS FN PER!
THE YETAYYYYYY!
The Schiavone Yet-tay remix is fire 🔥
What do you think the booker told Ron Reese before his big debut? Once you hit the ring you n the giant are gonna Eiffel Tower Hogan.
"Get in the ring and enjoy your time with hogan"
"Hehe......"
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing. Thought of a good way to make all participants enjoy this segment"
Such an awesome video. As someone who missed WCW almost entirely, I like these sorts of videos that highlight the best and worst of 90s wrestling. :)
Same. Coming from someone who grew up watching WCW and misses it like crazy especially the cruiserweight division, I really appreciate these vids
Greatest debut in history...and if anyone noticed reese looked like ALBERT first hahahahaahah
The pancake bear hug of Hogan was the funniest thing ever. Lol.
That intro killed me lmao
The Yeti transformed into Scorpion.
He sure did. Good thing I scrolled down to see this.
