After all these years and 48 00:02:14.159 --> 00:02:16.400 ten years of jokes on TLF about Sid not being 49 00:02:16.439 --> 00:02:19.240 obligated to make his appearances, we get the actual black 50 00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:20.960 and white on what he's obliging to do. 51 00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:24.759 Obligations, what are they? What does he have to do? 52 00:02:24.840 --> 00:02:28.680 What is he not obligated to do? What is the reality? 53 00:02:28.759 --> 00:02:33.120 Whatever?

And not only is he welcomed back after 55 00:02:36.199 --> 00:02:38.599 doing what he did, he's welcomed back to the richest 56 00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:40.199 contract he'd ever seen in his life. 57 00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:41.400 That's insane. 58 00:02:41.840 --> 00:02:43.719 And you heard him in the clipping plate of the 59 00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:46.280 inclusion of last episode talking about how this was. You know, 60 00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:50.479 he's sitting across the table from Eric Bischoff, who stylishly 61 00:02:50.639 --> 00:02:53.599 flew his own plane to meet him, and they're sitting 62 00:02:53.599 --> 00:02:55.960 there at the cracker barrel and Sid assumed that the 63 00:02:56.039 --> 00:02:58.719 number Eric put out there was for a cumulative three 64 00:02:58.759 --> 00:03:01.520 year deal, not annually at one point five million or 65 00:03:01.719 --> 00:03:04.240 whatever number. Sid said, Well, the reason I didn't bother 66 00:03:04.319 --> 00:03:06.159 to commit that to memories because we've got the black 67 00:03:06.199 --> 00:03:08.199 and white in front of us, and suffice to say, 68 00:03:09.240 --> 00:03:11.599 it's not exactly one point five million year, but you know, 69 00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:14.319 it's something or other. There's always ways to slice and 70 00:03:14.360 --> 00:03:16.479 dice it. We'll get to that. But you know, what 71 00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:19.439 did Sid come to be worth after all these years 72 00:03:19.479 --> 00:03:21.800 and all these stints and all these flash points that 73 00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:24.120 we've covered over the weeks here in tribute to Sid, 74 00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:27.000 who of course we lost this year at an untimely age, 75 00:03:27.319 --> 00:03:30.639 and who was such a cornerstone part of the Golden 76 00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:32.520 Hasbro era that put us all on the track to 77 00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:35.159 not only create this podcast, but you know, probably for 78 00:03:35.199 --> 00:03:38.000 you to listen to it being such a cornerstone at 79 00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:40.240 that time period. What did it amount to? Because Sid 80 00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:42.240 always talked about this contract is the one that really 81 00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:44.960 set him up, not so much for life, although considering, 82 00:03:45.080 --> 00:03:48.159 you know, everyone said he lived in fairly modest means 83 00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:51.879 in Arkansas, it probably did set him up for life. Really, 84 00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:53.840 there's a lot of money that he could put away. 85 00:03:53.879 --> 00:03:58.159 He lived body like a was he like a like 86 00:03:58.159 --> 00:04:00.639 a cee him punk type, just fucking not spending any 87 00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:02.120 money at all, you know. 88 00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:03.719 As far as yeah, I mean everyone would say that 89 00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:06.319 knew him personally, that he always drove very humble vehicles, 90 00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:07.879 that he just kind of you know, he didn't have 91 00:04:07.919 --> 00:04:09.960 a big, flashy, fancy house. He didn't have a mansion. 92 00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:12.840 He he was just as happy, you know, working on 93 00:04:12.840 --> 00:04:15.000 the farm. Or as his wife told Jim Cornett, as 94 00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:16.639 we talked about last time, maybe going back to selling 95 00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:18.439 farm chemicals. Maybe that'd be better for Sid. You know, 96 00:04:18.480 --> 00:04:20.160 sometimes Sid things he just needs to go back there. 97 00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:23.639 Just this is a guy who always, whether it be softball, 98 00:04:23.720 --> 00:04:24.879 that whatever, had. 99 00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:28.399 His right here. I thought, fucking you know, Jesse Ventura 100 00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:30.920 was the guy who who kept going back. 101 00:04:30.959 --> 00:04:31.600 Going back. 102 00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:34.759 But for some you know, that's the silver lining of 103 00:04:34.800 --> 00:04:36.800 not living beyond your means is you can just fucking 104 00:04:37.120 --> 00:04:39.800 parachute out of a job when it pisses you off. Right, Sure, 105 00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:42.160 sure you don't end up buying so much and getting 106 00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:44.279 so mortgage that you have to stick around in a 107 00:04:44.360 --> 00:04:46.800 high paying job. And once they sniff that out of you, 108 00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:48.639 they're going to exploit you to the hilt. And here's 109 00:04:48.680 --> 00:04:51.319 Sid is in a position where Jesus Christ, he doesn't 110 00:04:51.319 --> 00:04:53.480 even have to show up to work to get paid. 111 00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:55.959 And this is the master of coming up with injuries 112 00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:57.040 to find a way out. 113 00:04:57.079 --> 00:04:58.600 You know, Oh, he is the master. 114 00:04:59.120 --> 00:05:00.920 And now can you imagine you're going to guaranteed check 115 00:05:00.959 --> 00:05:03.480 in the mail even if he comes up with another injury. 116 00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:05.720 Not to say the man didn't get legitimately hurt throughout 117 00:05:05.720 --> 00:05:07.079 the course of his career because he did. He was 118 00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:09.480 a big man and he took relatively big bumps for 119 00:05:09.519 --> 00:05:11.879 his size and we all know how it ended, which 120 00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:15.959 if we do, but it's going to be so great 121 00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:18.279 to dig in. I mean, WW contracts are always such 122 00:05:18.279 --> 00:05:20.879 a gold mine, from the Hogan contract at the Bachelor 123 00:05:20.839 --> 00:05:23.759 of the Beach two thousand episode, not just WCW contracts. 124 00:05:23.800 --> 00:05:26.360 We talked about the Warriors ninety two contract when we 125 00:05:26.360 --> 00:05:30.560 did that Saturday nights. Oh yeah, oh absolutely, it's all 126 00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:34.240 in here, fucking crazy, and we're going to get to 127 00:05:34.279 --> 00:05:36.839 what the terms of engagement were for Sid's final signature 128 00:05:36.839 --> 00:05:39.439 and most lucrative run, as he not only came back 129 00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:41.920 to WW, but captured their world title for the first time. 130 00:05:42.279 --> 00:05:46.600 And in fact, Boss had a tribute VHS made for him. 131 00:05:46.600 --> 00:05:48.439 It's called the Millennium Man, and we're going to get 132 00:05:48.439 --> 00:05:50.240 into it. In fact, we're going to die of the 133 00:05:50.279 --> 00:05:51.000 Son of a Bitch. 134 00:05:51.160 --> 00:05:53.160 Oh my god. 135 00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:55.120 There's a bit of a story, and correct me if 136 00:05:55.120 --> 00:05:56.959 I'm wrong. It's holiday tied. As far as getting our 137 00:05:57.000 --> 00:05:58.800 hands on that VHS, it is. 138 00:05:58.839 --> 00:06:02.480 Absolutely that that was a gift from UH, from our 139 00:06:02.519 --> 00:06:04.639 good friend over at Mabel Toys. 140 00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:07.560 So if you don't know the WW Superstar series. This 141 00:06:07.639 --> 00:06:10.439 is post. Well you know that there's before they redid 142 00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:13.000 the logo and here you're okay if you don't, yeah, exactly, 143 00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:15.399 I don't blame you. That's why I feel compelled to 144 00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:17.680 point this out. There's the pre redoing a logo and 145 00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:21.240 post that's wway everything that was done after the logo 146 00:06:21.319 --> 00:06:25.199 was redone. This complete shit and speaks to why the 147 00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:26.879 company spiraled down Hail so quickly. 148 00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:30.120 I mean, that's just an awful I mean, it's it's 149 00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:33.800 a grotesque video in the only the only interesting thing 150 00:06:33.959 --> 00:06:38.680 is the quote unquote un you know, never before seen footage. 151 00:06:39.439 --> 00:06:41.720 Which makes you think that you're in for some cool 152 00:06:41.759 --> 00:06:44.240 like match footage after they went off the air, But 153 00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:45.040 that's not what it is. 154 00:06:45.120 --> 00:06:47.680 Or like matches that they didn't ever show before. And 155 00:06:47.720 --> 00:06:50.079 it's like, you know, I should know better by now. 156 00:06:50.279 --> 00:06:52.839 Like whenever they say shit like that, it's never that. 157 00:06:53.000 --> 00:06:58.800 It's always like they need to like honestly, and I 158 00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:00.560 don't think this would have been a bad thing to 159 00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:05.360 market it as, but you just say, instead of never 160 00:07:05.399 --> 00:07:10.000 before seen footage, why don't you just say brand new interviews, 161 00:07:10.040 --> 00:07:10.920 never before seen? 162 00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:14.240 Yeah, heart to heart interview that says it, because that's 163 00:07:14.279 --> 00:07:14.800 what it is. 164 00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:18.240 Like, it's just interview footage, does nothing new, It's all 165 00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:21.680 TV footage. But like when you say never before seen footage, 166 00:07:21.680 --> 00:07:25.360 it makes it seem like and again to me, yes, 167 00:07:25.439 --> 00:07:28.079 obviously never before seeing footage is gonna sell more tickets 168 00:07:28.160 --> 00:07:31.720 and more sell more video cassettes. But even saying brand 169 00:07:31.759 --> 00:07:36.480 new interview footager or some kind of exclusive interview footage 170 00:07:36.480 --> 00:07:39.720 never before seen is also gonna be I think it's gonna, 171 00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:41.720 you know, sell videotapes. 172 00:07:41.839 --> 00:07:43.839 You could say like Sid's most candid interview to date 173 00:07:43.959 --> 00:07:44.600 or something. 174 00:07:44.480 --> 00:07:46.319 Right, something like that. But like when you say never 175 00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:48.759 before seen footage, it even got me excited for a 176 00:07:48.759 --> 00:07:50.439 split second. I'm like, oh, I wonder what they fucking 177 00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:53.040 have here, and then oh, yeah, of course it's shit, 178 00:07:53.319 --> 00:07:53.759 is what it is. 179 00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:56.279 Because the Superstars series tapes, for those who remember, and 180 00:07:56.319 --> 00:07:58.240 I don't blame you for not because WW was selling 181 00:07:58.240 --> 00:07:59.879 the Wayne when they came out with these. It was 182 00:08:00.240 --> 00:08:02.720 kind of like a half step towards like a shoot 183 00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:05.959 tape in that right, they wouldn't ask the guy's exclusively 184 00:08:06.040 --> 00:08:08.959 k FAB questions on these releases, so you would get 185 00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:10.639 a little bit of like honest answers. I mean, they 186 00:08:10.639 --> 00:08:12.720 wouldn't shatter k fame or anything. They would they would 187 00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:14.639 talk about the characters in the angles. But a lot 188 00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:17.839 of the things Sid says in those interstitials, you know, 189 00:08:17.839 --> 00:08:20.240 are things he would actually say even if he wasn't working. 190 00:08:20.279 --> 00:08:23.160 I think about his position in the company, teaming with 191 00:08:23.199 --> 00:08:25.040 the likes of Randy Savage, which he was linked with 192 00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:27.079 in the very beginning, Rick Stein or and others, and. 193 00:08:27.040 --> 00:08:28.800 It's just no fucking clue about it. I mean, I 194 00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:30.920 will say, for me, it was never before seen. I 195 00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:32.720 had no fucking clue there was all this shit that 196 00:08:32.759 --> 00:08:33.559 was going on with him. 197 00:08:33.759 --> 00:08:36.080 I was gonna say, yeah, what's your sense? 198 00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:36.960 Were you? 199 00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:39.480 Because I get a story? But were you aware that 200 00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:40.879 Sid even came back in ninety nine? 201 00:08:40.960 --> 00:08:41.159 Yes? 202 00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:43.480 I did know that Sid was back. I knew that 203 00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:48.360 he I knew that he uh he was I remember 204 00:08:48.440 --> 00:08:52.000 him facing off with Goldberg, not even facing off, but 205 00:08:52.000 --> 00:08:56.440 I knew that he was feuding with Goldberg. I knew, 206 00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:02.679 and I knew about the Ben Wahth thing in January 207 00:09:02.679 --> 00:09:05.440 of two thousand. Yeah, that's it. I didn't really know. 208 00:09:05.919 --> 00:09:08.799 I wasn't following on a regular base. I had no 209 00:09:08.879 --> 00:09:09.759 fucking idea. 210 00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:12.240 Those are the newsworthy things that happened, So it makes 211 00:09:12.360 --> 00:09:13.799 sense that those are the things that would sort of 212 00:09:13.799 --> 00:09:16.399 bubble up. But there was so much that happened in 213 00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:20.360 WCW that like everyone forgot about everyone memory hold because 214 00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:22.840 it was so hard to watch and it was such 215 00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:25.720 a terrible time for WCW, you know, because Sid was 216 00:09:25.759 --> 00:09:30.159 always a draw. It's not like everywhere he goes immediately 217 00:09:30.159 --> 00:09:33.440 begins to go downhill and then spikes as soon. 218 00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:36.200 As he leaves. I gotta say, I gotta say one 219 00:09:36.200 --> 00:09:38.440 thing though with this video, that they did a really 220 00:09:38.440 --> 00:09:42.120 good job. They did a really good job making him 221 00:09:42.159 --> 00:09:43.799 look like a fucking ruthless killer. 222 00:09:43.919 --> 00:09:44.159 Yes. 223 00:09:44.279 --> 00:09:50.279 Now I am curious how that, you know, as someone 224 00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:55.080 who actually watched the stuff and who actually probably you 225 00:09:55.159 --> 00:10:00.039 remember the stuff, I imagine that when it's so so 226 00:10:00.360 --> 00:10:07.600 like uh streamlined, and it's so like razor focused, that 227 00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:10.159 it does come off great. But I imagine it didn't 228 00:10:10.159 --> 00:10:13.080 come off great when you were watching week to week. 229 00:10:13.080 --> 00:10:16.320 Right when you put side to side, you know it's 230 00:10:16.360 --> 00:10:17.919 pay per view main events. You got to think like 231 00:10:17.960 --> 00:10:19.480 you had to wait a month to get to these 232 00:10:19.559 --> 00:10:22.399 these high points, and the TV in between was just 233 00:10:22.440 --> 00:10:24.120 not just not good. I mean, it's it kind of 234 00:10:24.159 --> 00:10:26.240 funny because I mean again, he looked he came across 235 00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:27.320 like a fucking monster. 236 00:10:27.480 --> 00:10:27.879 Well he did. 237 00:10:27.919 --> 00:10:30.440 It is in fact, I would say some of the 238 00:10:30.480 --> 00:10:32.919 more effective booking he's enjoyed in his career, at least 239 00:10:32.919 --> 00:10:36.360 in the national spotlight that they knew they had a 240 00:10:36.440 --> 00:10:39.240 conviction that a Sid Goldberg match would be money because 241 00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:41.200 that was one opponent that Goldberg hadn't taken on, that 242 00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:43.600 you could credibly put up against, that had some star 243 00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:45.159 power where people are like, you know what, like this 244 00:10:45.200 --> 00:10:47.639 could be fun, Like just on paper, thinking of Goldberg 245 00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:50.919 versus Sid is fun. And the reason that's fun is 246 00:10:51.159 --> 00:10:53.320 the reason Sid is so fondly remembered because he just 247 00:10:53.360 --> 00:10:55.919 had that that that essence, that aura, that impression on 248 00:10:56.240 --> 00:10:58.600 anybody who saw him anywhere near his prime. 249 00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:00.879 So you know, they had it's a great match to 250 00:11:00.919 --> 00:11:02.799 It's a great match to book, a great match to sell. 251 00:11:02.799 --> 00:11:04.039 It's not a great match to watch. 252 00:11:04.559 --> 00:11:06.279 Did you watch the Goldberg match at aliwen hav It? 253 00:11:06.399 --> 00:11:06.679 No? 254 00:11:06.679 --> 00:11:08.440 No, no, no, no. 255 00:11:07.559 --> 00:11:10.240 No, Because that's the dis name of this tape is 256 00:11:10.240 --> 00:11:12.399 it builds up the Goldberg match so much. But they 257 00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:14.360 put it out before the Goldberg match happened. 258 00:11:14.720 --> 00:11:17.600 I know it's a very it's so it's a really 259 00:11:17.679 --> 00:11:25.519 amazing I didn't really gather until until I just started, 260 00:11:25.600 --> 00:11:28.279 you know, towards the end, I sorted looking up, mainly 261 00:11:28.320 --> 00:11:31.200 because all right, i'll because it didn't pan out, so 262 00:11:31.399 --> 00:11:34.320 I don't mind talking about this. So he talked about 263 00:11:34.399 --> 00:11:36.960 in one of the promos on the video, SID talks 264 00:11:37.000 --> 00:11:41.519 about being it's a cuts a promo on Ben Wah 265 00:11:42.440 --> 00:11:45.320 and Ben Wall was part of the revolution whatever faction 266 00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:48.480 that was, and so I was thinking, holy shit, this 267 00:11:48.639 --> 00:11:51.000 is it, this is gonna be it. This is where 268 00:11:51.000 --> 00:11:53.480 you get the revolutionary from. He's gonna say something here 269 00:11:53.919 --> 00:11:56.240 and say that he's revolutionary. You're fuck you with your 270 00:11:56.240 --> 00:11:57.639 revolution I'm revolutionary. 271 00:11:57.720 --> 00:11:58.240 Wow. 272 00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:02.039 And so I went looking for the actual fucking episode, 273 00:12:02.039 --> 00:12:06.360 which I thought was an I don't even I went. 274 00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:09.200 I spent way too much time trying to find that 275 00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:12.600 fucking promo, thinking that was gonna be the answer. And 276 00:12:12.639 --> 00:12:16.799 it wasn't, obviously, because you know, you don't get that 277 00:12:16.879 --> 00:12:19.159 kind of satisfaction. That's when it comes to nineteen ninety nine, 278 00:12:19.159 --> 00:12:21.919 two thousand, twousand and one. Ww. Nor should you get 279 00:12:21.919 --> 00:12:23.919 that you don't get any satisfaction. No, you don't, you 280 00:12:23.919 --> 00:12:27.240 don't at all. I know, and so but I you know, 281 00:12:27.360 --> 00:12:30.600 I spent and that's when I realized. I'm like, Okay, 282 00:12:30.600 --> 00:12:32.879 when did they I said, this is for the US title? 283 00:12:32.919 --> 00:12:36.279 When did this happen? Obviously it's not sold out. I 284 00:12:36.320 --> 00:12:38.879 know that when did this happen? And then it's like 285 00:12:40.080 --> 00:12:44.559 it happened in September, like how long? And I'm realizing 286 00:12:44.559 --> 00:12:49.240 that the whole fucking tape comprises ten weeks of time. 287 00:12:49.320 --> 00:12:49.879 It's like nothing. 288 00:12:51.240 --> 00:12:53.919 It's like, it's wild how much. 289 00:12:53.799 --> 00:12:56.559 It curiously captures the essence of this WW run for 290 00:12:56.600 --> 00:12:58.639 Sid because he the most impactful stuff he did was 291 00:12:58.639 --> 00:13:02.799 pretty much front loaded. But it's just like totally it's 292 00:13:02.799 --> 00:13:06.440 a totally arbitrary sampling, Like there could be no reason 293 00:13:06.440 --> 00:13:08.360 you'd put a tape out with it unless there was 294 00:13:08.399 --> 00:13:10.720 like a deadline, you had a box to check, right, 295 00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:13.279 It's not a fully formed story yet, not even closed, 296 00:13:13.360 --> 00:13:15.480 especially when they built up the Goldberg streak and then 297 00:13:15.480 --> 00:13:15.879 don't give you. 298 00:13:15.879 --> 00:13:17.279 The match and then the don't even fucking do it, 299 00:13:17.360 --> 00:13:21.080 Like I mean, obviously, I imagine this thing fucking came out 300 00:13:22.159 --> 00:13:24.559 before the year end, you know, and so that's why 301 00:13:24.600 --> 00:13:25.840 they fucking rushed to get it out. 302 00:13:26.159 --> 00:13:28.399 Now, did you know you were aware that Goldberg faced 303 00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:30.519 Sid in WCW. Beck then in nineteen ninety nine, were 304 00:13:30.519 --> 00:13:33.159 you were aware that they manufactured a fake streak for 305 00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:34.039 Sid to run? Oh? 306 00:13:34.279 --> 00:13:36.799 I did not know that, thoughts. That was brand new. 307 00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:43.799 I actually with Sid playing a complete maniacal asshole heel, 308 00:13:44.240 --> 00:13:47.240 I thought it was great. Yes, I thought it was great. 309 00:13:47.320 --> 00:13:49.679 I love this idea. Like, and to me correct me 310 00:13:49.679 --> 00:13:51.919 if I'm wrong, it didn't seem like it always had 311 00:13:51.960 --> 00:13:53.600 to do with a victory in the ring. It seemed 312 00:13:53.600 --> 00:13:56.559 like if he just fucking killed somebody, he counted that 313 00:13:56.600 --> 00:13:56.960 as a win. 314 00:13:57.080 --> 00:13:58.919 Yeah, because they only had so much time to get 315 00:13:58.919 --> 00:13:59.720 to help and havoc. 316 00:14:00.240 --> 00:14:03.759 That is awesome. Like, actually, I think that is a 317 00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:09.480 brilliant idea for somebody to like, you know, to claim 318 00:14:09.519 --> 00:14:12.759 themselves to be on the level of Goldberg and then 319 00:14:12.799 --> 00:14:14.519 you just say, you know what, I power bomb this 320 00:14:14.639 --> 00:14:16.200 asshole on some fucking popcorn. 321 00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:20.759 That's a win, yeah, Laparca. Yeah, Yeah, Well that's funny 322 00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:22.440 you say that, because I was wondering where you'd come 323 00:14:22.440 --> 00:14:24.559 down on it at the time. I kind of remember 324 00:14:24.600 --> 00:14:28.080 it being received as like lazy booking, like more than anything, 325 00:14:28.200 --> 00:14:29.759 they were sort of you know, putting the carp for 326 00:14:29.840 --> 00:14:31.759 the horse. They wanted to get to a number so 327 00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:33.919 that SID could have matched Goldberg Streak, which in its 328 00:14:33.919 --> 00:14:36.519 own right was fictitious by the end anyway, right, And 329 00:14:36.519 --> 00:14:38.240 they had Mike Tiney on air who came up with 330 00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:40.159 the whole idea of the Goldberg streak kind of vouching 331 00:14:40.200 --> 00:14:42.879 for this SID number and updating us on the SID number. 332 00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:46.480 And even they still couldn't credibly get SID to that 333 00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:49.440 win count, even counting every house show they did. So 334 00:14:49.480 --> 00:14:51.120 they had to, like you say, come up with these 335 00:14:51.159 --> 00:14:54.000 scenarios where he would lay out six people on a 336 00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:56.320 nitro and that would be considered six wins, even though 337 00:14:56.320 --> 00:14:58.240 those weren't matches. Those are just run ins. Those are 338 00:14:58.240 --> 00:14:59.039 just beatdowns. 339 00:14:59.399 --> 00:15:01.720 I think, think if it's done, you know, the thing is, 340 00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:03.960 it's got to be done. I don't know how it 341 00:15:04.000 --> 00:15:07.600 was done on on television week two week, but you know, 342 00:15:08.159 --> 00:15:13.039 it came across as being like he's being obnoxed, which 343 00:15:13.039 --> 00:15:16.039 is funny. Yeah, exactly, like like like he's like exactly 344 00:15:16.440 --> 00:15:19.440 like he's just like he's a mix of obnoxious psychotic 345 00:15:19.559 --> 00:15:22.399 and and just doesn't give a shit that you know, 346 00:15:22.440 --> 00:15:24.080 if I kick you in the balls, that's a win 347 00:15:24.240 --> 00:15:24.559 for me. 348 00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:26.879 Right that is, that's pretty funny to walk around kicking 349 00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:29.279 people in the balls and then adding one to the score. 350 00:15:29.039 --> 00:15:30.799 Because I kicked you in the balls before you kick 351 00:15:30.879 --> 00:15:32.000 me in the ball, so I win. 352 00:15:32.279 --> 00:15:34.200 I mean, by the way, that'll be roun two years, 353 00:15:34.360 --> 00:15:36.039 they'll pretend to get it from us, but there'll be 354 00:15:36.039 --> 00:15:37.960 some gimmick where guy walks around and kicks people in the nuts. 355 00:15:38.000 --> 00:15:40.600 Are two years when they're on Netflix will be fucking 356 00:15:40.679 --> 00:15:41.039 on there. 357 00:15:42.200 --> 00:15:43.840 But yeah, I suppose if you spin it that way. 358 00:15:43.840 --> 00:15:46.600 At the time, it was kind of just like, let's 359 00:15:46.639 --> 00:15:48.559 run the score up and just, you know, whatever we 360 00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:50.200 have to do, even if we have to make complete 361 00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:53.639 illogical sense. But if you put because Sid didn't really 362 00:15:53.679 --> 00:15:55.720 play it up like he was delusional. He played it 363 00:15:55.799 --> 00:15:57.840 up like he believed that he was getting these wins 364 00:15:57.840 --> 00:15:59.879 and that it was like rightful. But I guess, yeah, 365 00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:03.039 point that that's perfectly fine because it's Sid, And that's 366 00:16:03.039 --> 00:16:05.159 been the whole theme through this whole thing. It's like Sid, 367 00:16:05.799 --> 00:16:07.639 Sid can call himself the master and the ruler of 368 00:16:07.639 --> 00:16:09.240 the world, and people don't laugh at him because you 369 00:16:09.360 --> 00:16:12.399 kind of believe that, Like, even if he thinks it's bullshit, 370 00:16:12.799 --> 00:16:13.639 go ahead say something. 371 00:16:13.799 --> 00:16:15.399 You know you're right exactly. 372 00:16:15.440 --> 00:16:17.279 And if you think it's winning streak is bullshit, come 373 00:16:17.320 --> 00:16:19.480 and do something about it. And no one does anything 374 00:16:19.480 --> 00:16:21.080 about it. So he just keeps adding to the tally 375 00:16:21.120 --> 00:16:24.399 because he's nuts. And yeah, he believes those are actual wins. 376 00:16:24.399 --> 00:16:26.440 But that actually works for the Sid character instead of 377 00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:29.360 it being some guy that totally loses his face because 378 00:16:29.399 --> 00:16:31.799 he actually believes in the streak that you know, contains 379 00:16:31.879 --> 00:16:33.159 very few official victories. 380 00:16:33.879 --> 00:16:35.840 I I just I actually I thought it was. I 381 00:16:35.879 --> 00:16:38.320 mean again, this is just on the on the VHS tape. 382 00:16:38.799 --> 00:16:40.600 I don't know how it played, and you're saying it 383 00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:43.399 didn't play as well. I think I think it just 384 00:16:43.440 --> 00:16:45.039 it would have looked. So I think it just sounds 385 00:16:45.039 --> 00:16:49.080 fucking hilarious and kind of badass in a Sid way, 386 00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:51.000 you know, kind of. Again, I don't think there are 387 00:16:51.000 --> 00:16:53.639 many people. The only other person you could do that 388 00:16:54.000 --> 00:16:56.519 is like with a Jericho doing it for absolute comedy, 389 00:16:56.759 --> 00:17:00.440 right and and but if you do it for for Sid, 390 00:17:00.519 --> 00:17:07.680 it's like it's kind of you know, it almost makes 391 00:17:07.720 --> 00:17:10.759 it become a little scary in a way. Yeah, because 392 00:17:10.759 --> 00:17:16.000 you've got someone who's not willing to to abide by 393 00:17:16.160 --> 00:17:23.279 the rules, abide by the uh the uh uh, well, 394 00:17:23.319 --> 00:17:25.920 the conventions of the convention, exact conventions is what I'm 395 00:17:25.920 --> 00:17:29.319 looking for, the conventions of what a win loss streak 396 00:17:29.359 --> 00:17:31.599 looks like. And he's just like, no, I'm just gonna 397 00:17:31.599 --> 00:17:33.519 fucking do what I want. And I mean that also 398 00:17:33.559 --> 00:17:35.960 plays into lap SID in many ways. 399 00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:37.680 I don't know, we'll probably also deride it done think 400 00:17:37.680 --> 00:17:39.599 about it, because Sid was plugged squarely into the Kevin 401 00:17:39.680 --> 00:17:41.839 Nash roll of like let's let's lay out as many 402 00:17:41.960 --> 00:17:44.200 Luca doors and Cruiser weights as we can every week. 403 00:17:44.559 --> 00:17:46.359 Even though that that also laughed, and that made me 404 00:17:46.440 --> 00:17:49.559 laugh so hard. I'm like, look who they're fucking giving 405 00:17:49.599 --> 00:17:54.000 to him, as as as food, they're giving him all 406 00:17:54.119 --> 00:17:58.640 these all these luchadors and all these fucking tiny ass motherfuckers, 407 00:17:59.519 --> 00:18:02.119 Like who who are who now? 408 00:18:02.240 --> 00:18:02.400 Have? 409 00:18:02.680 --> 00:18:07.880 After after working so hard to get you know, over years, 410 00:18:08.119 --> 00:18:11.480 maybe getting two steps ahead, now they've been thrown seven 411 00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:12.200 steps back? 412 00:18:12.240 --> 00:18:13.160 And who has the book? 413 00:18:14.359 --> 00:18:14.759 Whatever? 414 00:18:14.839 --> 00:18:16.960 Man? Fucking exactly, I. 415 00:18:16.960 --> 00:18:19.400 Don't know why I'm the mark just because I don't. 416 00:18:19.200 --> 00:18:24.079 Think you're gonna have them fucking feet on, you know, 417 00:18:24.400 --> 00:18:28.279 big fucking guys. So you gotta build that. You know, 418 00:18:28.359 --> 00:18:31.319 you can't have them throw around big guys otherwise it 419 00:18:31.359 --> 00:18:32.880 defeats the whole fucking purpose. 420 00:18:32.920 --> 00:18:34.559 And look, before you come after me on this front, 421 00:18:34.599 --> 00:18:37.039 let's not forget I lost clean one, two three in 422 00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:40.960 the middle of Nitro to Raymisterio and Bark the fucking win. 423 00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:45.880 What do you want? You know, Yeah, I'm just saying, look, 424 00:18:45.920 --> 00:18:47.920 you know, sometimes you got to feed the guy, the 425 00:18:47.960 --> 00:18:50.319 big guy, the little guys. You know, you got the 426 00:18:50.359 --> 00:18:55.640 big shark eating the little fish. It's fucking nature, It's Darwin. 427 00:18:55.680 --> 00:18:57.759 And that right there is a big part of why 428 00:18:57.839 --> 00:18:59.920 nineteen ninety nine was so abored of two is Nash 429 00:19:00.039 --> 00:19:02.960 out the book and it was just it's just not 430 00:19:02.960 --> 00:19:06.920 gonna work. It's just just he just creatively just basically 431 00:19:06.960 --> 00:19:09.119 bankrupt in terms of coming up with anything that could 432 00:19:09.160 --> 00:19:12.359 move the rating or or create a star, you know, 433 00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:15.519 get you excited about someone new. Impossible. He just couldn't 434 00:19:15.519 --> 00:19:17.759 do it. And and so ninety nine is and we 435 00:19:17.799 --> 00:19:21.400 have to countenance the long drawn out process of coming 436 00:19:21.400 --> 00:19:24.359 to that realization. There's that weird kind of interregnant period 437 00:19:24.400 --> 00:19:28.759 in the Spring where Bischoff is sort of back as president, 438 00:19:28.839 --> 00:19:30.880 the white haired Bischoff we see for the first time, 439 00:19:31.240 --> 00:19:34.400 and he's sailing about trying any number of tricks and gimmicks, 440 00:19:34.640 --> 00:19:37.400 from kiss to master Pe and the No Limit Soldiers 441 00:19:37.400 --> 00:19:39.519 to giving away a million dollars on Nitro to the 442 00:19:39.559 --> 00:19:42.759 whole redesign to He's did like a weird shoot angle 443 00:19:42.799 --> 00:19:44.920 he did at the Spring Stampede ninety nine with Hogan 444 00:19:44.960 --> 00:19:48.680 and a knee injury, and so you know, it's just 445 00:19:48.720 --> 00:19:51.079 not there was nothing there. Everything he tried, all his 446 00:19:51.160 --> 00:19:54.759 instincts were no longer. I'm gonna going to resonate. And 447 00:19:54.880 --> 00:19:56.759 Nash gets the book, you know, earlier in ninety nine 448 00:19:56.799 --> 00:19:59.400 before even Bischoff comes back and just can't you know, 449 00:19:59.440 --> 00:20:01.279 book his way out of a paper bag, just you know, 450 00:20:01.400 --> 00:20:05.480 abortive returns. Terrible television. He did the infamous three hour 451 00:20:05.559 --> 00:20:08.039 Nitro with the first hour was no wrestling whatsoever. It 452 00:20:08.119 --> 00:20:10.599 was just a series of skits, including the debut with 453 00:20:10.640 --> 00:20:15.000 Tory Wilson and several black and white vignettes. I don't 454 00:20:15.039 --> 00:20:18.759 see the problem, I do, I do for sure. It 455 00:20:18.680 --> 00:20:20.759 was like sounds like good entertainment to me. But hey, 456 00:20:20.799 --> 00:20:22.640 he's a guy that won't hesitate to ring up sid. 457 00:20:22.680 --> 00:20:24.319 You know, they had a long history together going all 458 00:20:24.319 --> 00:20:27.240 the way back to the first WCW run not not 459 00:20:27.359 --> 00:20:29.720 not to mention headlining in your house is in ninety 460 00:20:29.720 --> 00:20:32.119 five against each other and all of that. So yees, 461 00:20:32.279 --> 00:20:33.759 if Nash has got the book and he's going to 462 00:20:33.799 --> 00:20:36.759 find somebody that he perceives as a money headliner, he's 463 00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:38.440 he's probably gonna go for a sid for sure. 464 00:20:38.720 --> 00:20:41.039 Yeah. Yeah, talked about it makes sense on. 465 00:20:40.960 --> 00:20:43.319 The episode where we talked about Sid's ninety five WW front. 466 00:20:43.319 --> 00:20:45.000 I mean, nash Is said in his podcast that you know, 467 00:20:45.119 --> 00:20:46.480 Vin said, all right, we'll bring him back, but he's 468 00:20:46.480 --> 00:20:50.240 your problem, like if it doesn't work out his Nash 469 00:20:50.279 --> 00:20:53.160 wanted him in to work against him as champion and 470 00:20:53.200 --> 00:20:55.680 also for the Sean Michael's bodyguard thing. But so here 471 00:20:55.720 --> 00:20:58.839 comes full circle back again and sid Is is back 472 00:20:58.839 --> 00:21:01.839 in the sauce. Hopefully not on the sauce because then 473 00:21:01.839 --> 00:21:03.000 someone else stabbed. 474 00:21:03.400 --> 00:21:04.559 Yeah, but it's. 475 00:21:04.400 --> 00:21:06.759 Going to be an interesting ride. Nonetheless, this is of 476 00:21:06.799 --> 00:21:09.880 course a Randy Savage who was just he's completely out 477 00:21:09.880 --> 00:21:12.680 of his mind and he is at least eighty pounds 478 00:21:12.680 --> 00:21:14.039 heavier than he has any right to be. 479 00:21:14.519 --> 00:21:20.359 Oh, he just he is. He is grotesque. He is unacceptable, 480 00:21:20.920 --> 00:21:22.279 and he is offensive. 481 00:21:22.839 --> 00:21:24.759 Did you see Randy back then in this when he 482 00:21:24.759 --> 00:21:25.960 had gorgeous George and all that? 483 00:21:26.640 --> 00:21:29.519 Vaguely I remember, I don't know it was this before 484 00:21:29.599 --> 00:21:32.000 or after he had the red sequin outfit. 485 00:21:32.960 --> 00:21:35.079 Yeah, that came at the end of this. Yeah, he 486 00:21:35.160 --> 00:21:36.079 first came back. 487 00:21:36.279 --> 00:21:38.240 A little bit of that, and I was like, what, 488 00:21:38.359 --> 00:21:41.799 I don't know, and I stopped watching, right, you know, 489 00:21:42.000 --> 00:21:43.720 I like, I was like, wait a minute, No, that's 490 00:21:43.720 --> 00:21:44.200 not okay. 491 00:21:44.240 --> 00:21:45.359 I don't know what he was thinking. 492 00:21:46.160 --> 00:21:49.839 And and also, you know what, what I found it 493 00:21:49.960 --> 00:21:54.000 be kind of, you know, uncomfortable too, is that he's 494 00:21:54.039 --> 00:22:00.640 he's not completely doing his Randy Savage voice. Oh, it's 495 00:22:00.680 --> 00:22:04.680 like he's kind of talking a little normal in addition 496 00:22:04.799 --> 00:22:06.759 to putting on I know, part of the Raindy Savage 497 00:22:06.799 --> 00:22:10.640 voice is legit, but there's also like obviously a part 498 00:22:10.680 --> 00:22:14.000 that's put on where it gets you know. But he 499 00:22:14.079 --> 00:22:16.160 was kind of talking with more of his real voice 500 00:22:16.200 --> 00:22:18.440 in like those prom and I was like, no, no, no, no, no, 501 00:22:19.440 --> 00:22:21.599 it's very it's not it's not okay. 502 00:22:22.839 --> 00:22:27.039 It's not okay, ready, Sava.

But he doesn't know who's 556 00:24:47.599 --> 00:24:49.960 talking to him, but he says, what are you doing? 557 00:24:50.039 --> 00:24:56.319 Like he knows you, Randy, It's it's Lannie ha. 558 00:24:58.319 --> 00:25:02.559 Leani Leani Leany Leani? What's fucking leany? What are you 559 00:25:02.599 --> 00:25:03.200 doing over there? 560 00:25:03.240 --> 00:25:03.720 Leaning you? 561 00:25:03.880 --> 00:25:06.279 What do you are? You watch your metory to get hard? 562 00:25:07.720 --> 00:25:08.559 Is that what you're doing? 563 00:25:08.720 --> 00:25:11.319 What are you doing over there? Suddenly it's like, oh, 564 00:25:11.480 --> 00:25:15.200 they're in the same room, like you know what I mean, 565 00:25:15.200 --> 00:25:16.880 they're not like a house, and it's like they're in 566 00:25:16.960 --> 00:25:19.480 the same hotel room where he's fucking I didn't even 567 00:25:19.559 --> 00:25:22.440 realize that, but yeah, I guess I didn't really specify. 568 00:25:24.160 --> 00:25:26.359 So it's a wild time and it's this vortex of 569 00:25:26.400 --> 00:25:29.319 savageness that Sid walks into as sort of like a 570 00:25:29.359 --> 00:25:32.440 bodyguard in the beginning to Savage, that would not be 571 00:25:32.519 --> 00:25:35.039 a role he would savor very much. It's not like 572 00:25:35.079 --> 00:25:36.920 he bad mouthed it, but you know, Sid's there to 573 00:25:36.960 --> 00:25:39.960 be a man on his own right always. Sid wants 574 00:25:39.960 --> 00:25:43.160 to be able to author the success of his program exclusively. 575 00:25:43.279 --> 00:25:46.319 He doesn't really dig being a tag team wrestler. But 576 00:25:46.359 --> 00:25:49.480 it's in the chaos of him and Kevin Nashman world 577 00:25:49.519 --> 00:25:52.400 champion and passing the belt around that side gets the 578 00:25:52.480 --> 00:25:55.400 WCW title again. We'll get to that for the first time. Actually, 579 00:25:55.599 --> 00:25:57.599 if you don't count, which he does for some reason, 580 00:25:57.720 --> 00:25:59.960 that twenty five seconds at Halloween have like nineteen nine 581 00:26:00.119 --> 00:26:02.279 Before they realized it was Berry. Wyndham dressed his sting 582 00:26:03.559 --> 00:26:05.599 that he thought he counts that as a world title win, 583 00:26:05.680 --> 00:26:10.160 which is brutally hilarious. But this is all a fascinating 584 00:26:10.839 --> 00:26:13.640 thing for Sid because it's his most lucrative run and 585 00:26:13.680 --> 00:26:15.559 it's kind of like his worst run. I mean it's 586 00:26:15.559 --> 00:26:19.640 not it's not objectively bad, but it's just it's most 587 00:26:19.680 --> 00:26:21.640 forgettable stuff he did. Let's put it that way. It's 588 00:26:21.680 --> 00:26:24.200 the most forgettable run he had in the national spotlight, 589 00:26:25.359 --> 00:26:27.200 but it's the one that made him the most money. 590 00:26:27.200 --> 00:26:29.640 It's really it's really wild, and it's it says a 591 00:26:29.640 --> 00:26:31.440 lot about w Stuby at the time too, And you know, 592 00:26:32.079 --> 00:26:34.319 say what you will about who killed wtw They went 593 00:26:34.400 --> 00:26:36.759 right past ninety nine and Nash's booking and this is 594 00:26:36.799 --> 00:26:39.640 it is what does it? What doesn't mean? Yeah, this 595 00:26:39.759 --> 00:26:41.319 is like okay, well they're not gonna be able to 596 00:26:41.319 --> 00:26:43.720 write the ship, they're digging a further hole, and then 597 00:26:43.720 --> 00:26:46.480 by late ninety nine when Russo comes in, the goose 598 00:26:46.559 --> 00:26:49.319 is cooked. That will create a lot of interesting dynamics. 599 00:26:50.240 --> 00:26:51.960 Instead of the Millennium Man, he should have been called 600 00:26:51.960 --> 00:26:53.000 the solitary Man. 601 00:26:52.920 --> 00:26:56.000 The solitary Man. Yeah, yeah, indeed, yep, that's how we 602 00:26:56.079 --> 00:26:59.759 preferred to be framed and positioned. But yeah, okay, so 603 00:26:59.839 --> 00:27:01.200 this is good, this is great. You didn't have a 604 00:27:01.240 --> 00:27:03.519 sense of him, really, and you know, you knew he 605 00:27:03.559 --> 00:27:04.640 was there, but you didn't watch a. 606 00:27:04.559 --> 00:27:07.359 Lot of no, not at all. Know, I had no clue. 607 00:27:07.480 --> 00:27:10.000 It's all gravy for me. There's a personal story in that. 608 00:27:10.119 --> 00:27:12.720 I remember being in high school when he came back 609 00:27:12.759 --> 00:27:15.480 and watching that nitro and coming back the next day. 610 00:27:15.480 --> 00:27:17.119 And there was a buddy of mine in my chemistry class. 611 00:27:17.319 --> 00:27:20.000 Rest in peace, he's passed away. We used to talk 612 00:27:20.039 --> 00:27:21.160 all the time about wrestling. 613 00:27:21.240 --> 00:27:21.400 Man. 614 00:27:21.440 --> 00:27:22.920 It was a class where we could dick off. It 615 00:27:22.960 --> 00:27:25.039 wasn't a very serious class at all, So we just 616 00:27:25.039 --> 00:27:27.559 sit in the back and just compare notes every single 617 00:27:27.720 --> 00:27:31.480 I think it's every other day, And you know this 618 00:27:31.599 --> 00:27:34.759 is post WWF. Absolutely running away with the Ball nineteen 619 00:27:34.799 --> 00:27:37.759 ninety eight being the transformative here was to say nothing 620 00:27:37.799 --> 00:27:39.599 of the first half of ninety nine, where they started 621 00:27:39.599 --> 00:27:41.440 doing these ratings that you just you couldn't believe your 622 00:27:41.480 --> 00:27:44.799 eyes on Monday Night Raw and Nitro was doing dog 623 00:27:44.880 --> 00:27:49.359 shit ratings, And so we never talk about Nitro really 624 00:27:49.400 --> 00:27:51.400 that much, but we'd watch it, but it just wouldn't 625 00:27:51.400 --> 00:27:53.599 be the topic of conversation on Tuesday, right right, It 626 00:27:53.680 --> 00:27:56.160 just wouldn't be wasn't top of mind. It wasn't the 627 00:27:56.160 --> 00:27:59.400 most exciting stuff that happened. But Sid Sid's returned to 628 00:27:59.480 --> 00:28:03.599 Nitro was the last time I remember him bringing up WCW. First, 629 00:28:03.799 --> 00:28:06.880 It's like, really, did you see Sid? I was like, oh, 630 00:28:07.559 --> 00:28:09.200 I don't know why I remember this, but I remember 631 00:28:09.319 --> 00:28:13.559 being really kind of like intrigued. Did WCW actually do 632 00:28:13.640 --> 00:28:15.680 something here that might get people to look in for 633 00:28:15.720 --> 00:28:18.200 the first time in what seemed like eight nine, ten months, 634 00:28:18.559 --> 00:28:21.279 And of course it wasn't. But he had a little 635 00:28:21.319 --> 00:28:23.759 deal there where he had he had a title match 636 00:28:23.799 --> 00:28:25.880 on Nitro with Hogan. Hogan was a face, but he 637 00:28:25.920 --> 00:28:27.759 was still wearing the black and white Hollywood outfit. 638 00:28:27.839 --> 00:28:30.119 Well I know, it kind of like there there was 639 00:28:30.200 --> 00:28:31.839 and he had he had two. He ended up having 640 00:28:31.880 --> 00:28:34.720 two matches with Hogan. Both are on the tape, right, yeah, well, 641 00:28:34.799 --> 00:28:38.400 I mean it quote both matches, yeah, sure. 642 00:28:38.240 --> 00:28:40.519 Right, And is there one on there with ones in 643 00:28:40.559 --> 00:28:42.519 black and white and ones in the red and yellow. 644 00:28:42.200 --> 00:28:46.480 Brignon, Yeah, we had that. We actually have a Wrestlmania rematch, which, honestly. 645 00:28:49.279 --> 00:28:51.400 It should be epic that Hogan is wrestling sid for 646 00:28:51.400 --> 00:28:51.920 the first time. 647 00:28:52.039 --> 00:28:54.160 It should be. It should be. But I'm just gonna say, 648 00:28:54.160 --> 00:28:55.400 I mean again, I don't want to get too much 649 00:28:55.400 --> 00:28:58.319 into it because the tape will speak for itself, but man, 650 00:28:59.160 --> 00:29:01.400 the finish of the of the one the Red and 651 00:29:01.440 --> 00:29:08.440 Yellow is it's it's two. It's so uh. I mean, 652 00:29:08.519 --> 00:29:12.000 it's it's an exact replay of a different show and 653 00:29:12.640 --> 00:29:18.480 the ending is I mean, it's why we It's why 654 00:29:18.519 --> 00:29:20.200 we talk about Hogan the way we talk about. 655 00:29:19.960 --> 00:29:23.720 Hogan, is that right, Yes, It's definitely why we talk 656 00:29:23.759 --> 00:29:25.799 about ww in nineteen ninety nine, the way we do 657 00:29:26.920 --> 00:29:28.759 Oh yeah, yeah. I mean it's like, how many times 658 00:29:28.759 --> 00:29:31.599 could you watch Nitro and watch Hogan and a DQ 659 00:29:31.759 --> 00:29:34.279 finish and a post match SMAs It's. 660 00:29:34.119 --> 00:29:35.480 Like, well, which one are you talking about? 661 00:29:35.519 --> 00:29:38.039 I know exactly because I do remember a little bit of. 662 00:29:38.240 --> 00:29:39.880 That wasn't the end of the Red and Yellow one. 663 00:29:41.519 --> 00:29:43.000 I do remember a little bit, a little bit of 664 00:29:43.000 --> 00:29:44.880 a spark when I realized Hogan and said we're going 665 00:29:44.920 --> 00:29:48.000 to wrestle again, because I you know, they never wrestled 666 00:29:48.039 --> 00:29:50.880 after Wrestle Mainy eight and that is an absolute core 667 00:29:50.960 --> 00:29:53.880 memories we've talked about for years and years. So there 668 00:29:53.960 --> 00:29:55.559 was that it didn't do. It didn't do the kind 669 00:29:55.599 --> 00:29:57.400 of rating that indicated they had life to it. But 670 00:29:57.680 --> 00:30:00.160 those are the last few ratings that seemed like there 671 00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:00.880 were science of life. 672 00:30:00.880 --> 00:30:03.839 This does the thing. It's not a rating guy. We're 673 00:30:04.200 --> 00:30:06.839 imagine if you if you booked Hogan again and books 674 00:30:06.880 --> 00:30:09.839 it against Hogan and built it for a paid per view. 675 00:30:09.960 --> 00:30:12.720 I can imagine that absolutely getting a decent by rate. 676 00:30:12.799 --> 00:30:14.880 But you can't get a rating out of the sid. 677 00:30:14.920 --> 00:30:17.559 That's how bankrupt they were creatively. They had nothing. I mean, 678 00:30:17.559 --> 00:30:20.119 they just like the biggest match we can do, Let's 679 00:30:20.119 --> 00:30:22.039 see if that does the rating, and it didn't, and 680 00:30:22.160 --> 00:30:25.119 of course you wenter a fucking panic spiral because if 681 00:30:25.160 --> 00:30:27.000 like the best match we you know, the highest profile 682 00:30:27.000 --> 00:30:28.720 match we can think to put together right now doesn't 683 00:30:28.759 --> 00:30:30.759 come anywhere close to touching Ro's rating. And what are 684 00:30:30.759 --> 00:30:33.240 we doing here? Because we built our entire idea and 685 00:30:33.240 --> 00:30:34.960 notion of success on being competitive. 686 00:30:34.960 --> 00:30:38.000 But I mean, Knights, we know that that's not a thing. 687 00:30:38.039 --> 00:30:39.640 That is that that's not a reality. 688 00:30:39.799 --> 00:30:40.640 It's not a reality. 689 00:30:40.839 --> 00:30:42.559 We don't we know it's not a reality anyway, Like 690 00:30:42.599 --> 00:30:45.440 you just you can't expect one show to mean you're 691 00:30:45.480 --> 00:30:47.480 in business. You have to build towards it. You have 692 00:30:47.519 --> 00:30:48.920 to start from scratch. 693 00:30:48.640 --> 00:30:52.720 Totally, totally, And there was just not the appetite for 694 00:30:52.720 --> 00:30:54.319 that up and down the Turner structure. It was all 695 00:30:54.359 --> 00:30:56.599 just let's make up that ground, man, Because you know 696 00:30:56.640 --> 00:30:58.720 we've talked about it endlessly. We will see it again 697 00:30:58.759 --> 00:31:00.920 when the Christmas show comes up this year, or all 698 00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:03.720 those licensed merchandise products when they were hot start coming 699 00:31:03.720 --> 00:31:05.599 through in nineteen ninety nine. It's like, who the fuck's 700 00:31:05.640 --> 00:31:07.839 gonna buy this stuff? Noboy's watching WCW anymore. 701 00:31:07.880 --> 00:31:08.680 I know, I know. 702 00:31:08.839 --> 00:31:10.960 But you have an organization that started to build itself 703 00:31:11.039 --> 00:31:12.920 up and come to find out years later, build its 704 00:31:12.960 --> 00:31:15.680 budgets around assumptions that nineteen ninety eight, when you know, 705 00:31:15.720 --> 00:31:18.920 revenue run right would continue, licensing run rate would continue 706 00:31:19.559 --> 00:31:21.680 at that level if not, if not exceed it, it's like, no, 707 00:31:21.799 --> 00:31:24.920 you actually have to pencil in like forty percent drop 708 00:31:24.960 --> 00:31:27.559 in revenue and buy rates for pay per views, right, 709 00:31:27.680 --> 00:31:29.319 And you have to realize that all these you know, 710 00:31:29.480 --> 00:31:31.920 people tripping over each other to license products in ninety 711 00:31:31.920 --> 00:31:34.039 eight when they were hot. By the time the products 712 00:31:34.079 --> 00:31:36.920 are ready to hit the shelves, No the wswree credit card, 713 00:31:36.960 --> 00:31:38.319 No the Nitro grill. 714 00:31:38.200 --> 00:31:41.680 No Imagine Fashion fred card. 715 00:31:42.079 --> 00:31:44.440 Fuck. Their toys sucked so bad. 716 00:31:44.960 --> 00:31:49.119 Oh, they were awful, although the ninety nine they weren't. 717 00:31:49.519 --> 00:31:53.160 They weren't great, but they weren't awful. I bought the 718 00:31:53.240 --> 00:31:56.559 Nash Yeah, like the last I don't know if it 719 00:31:56.599 --> 00:32:00.480 was nine to nine, two thousand, did you Nash with 720 00:32:00.559 --> 00:32:03.359 the big sweeping hair but like kind of a weird body, 721 00:32:03.960 --> 00:32:08.359 but it was really tall, you know, Like they were okay, 722 00:32:08.799 --> 00:32:12.079 I guess, but they weren't great. They certainly weren't great, 723 00:32:12.240 --> 00:32:15.240 and they were definitely more realistic than any we figure 724 00:32:15.279 --> 00:32:15.720 ever was. 725 00:32:15.839 --> 00:32:18.160 And they lost the THHQ license. So that's a bullet 726 00:32:18.160 --> 00:32:20.279 in the fucking head. Now their video games are going 727 00:32:20.319 --> 00:32:23.559 to be complete ass, which is always a huge chip 728 00:32:23.599 --> 00:32:25.720 in their favor. It's if they had that wonderful game 729 00:32:25.799 --> 00:32:30.119 for World Tour and for revenge yep, and now it's gone. 730 00:32:30.240 --> 00:32:32.519 Now it's WWF's even worse. It's not just gone. It's 731 00:32:32.680 --> 00:32:34.519 WWF games or as good as they ors used to 732 00:32:34.599 --> 00:32:39.400 be better at a disaster, but it's it's it's World 733 00:32:39.480 --> 00:32:45.079 Championship Wrestling. And it's the man called SID and we're saluting. 734 00:32:44.720 --> 00:32:47.240 Him here, the millennium man called Sid. 735 00:32:47.799 --> 00:32:50.920 Yes, yes, as only we can try to get maybe 736 00:32:50.960 --> 00:32:52.839 maybe recapture just a little bit of that sense of 737 00:32:52.839 --> 00:32:56.319 what caused that, uh, that momentary enthusiasm in my high 738 00:32:56.319 --> 00:32:59.000 school chemistry class that I'm calling here and when I 739 00:32:59.000 --> 00:33:02.680 think about SID in nineteen. So it's a lot to 740 00:33:02.680 --> 00:33:06.319 get into. And we do have a several page contract 741 00:33:06.359 --> 00:33:08.319 here to read into the record, because we need to 742 00:33:08.359 --> 00:33:11.319 set the terms of engagement. We need to set the 743 00:33:11.400 --> 00:33:16.000 level of expectations around obligation and around contract and around renunration. Brother, 744 00:33:16.759 --> 00:33:24.599 And yeah, whose contract didn't like that word, Terry my contract, dude, 745 00:33:24.640 --> 00:33:26.720 But heay, if we're going to talk about a contract, boss, 746 00:33:27.799 --> 00:33:30.079 there's kind of like an unspoken contract for ten years 747 00:33:30.160 --> 00:33:32.200 running between us and the Solar System about what it 748 00:33:32.240 --> 00:33:36.359 takes to keep this engine running. Is there not? Absolutely is, 749 00:33:36.440 --> 00:33:38.640 And tell the folks what form that contract takes. 750 00:33:39.079 --> 00:33:42.640 I believe it would be a Patreon dot com slash 751 00:33:42.640 --> 00:33:47.759 the lapse van. That's for people who aren't fucking bitches, 752 00:33:48.880 --> 00:33:53.640 who understand that if you want something and you need something, 753 00:33:55.160 --> 00:33:57.960 you have to own up to it correct, you have 754 00:33:58.000 --> 00:34:02.759 to take responsibility for it, correct and do the right thing. 755 00:34:03.960 --> 00:34:06.279 Otherwise things go away. 756 00:34:07.480 --> 00:34:09.840 That's right, that's right. You have to produce, you have 757 00:34:09.960 --> 00:34:13.840 to show, you have to stand up, and you have 758 00:34:13.920 --> 00:34:15.840 to speak up for what you think is important and 759 00:34:15.880 --> 00:34:19.039 what you think should be sustained. That's the only way forward, folks. 760 00:34:19.800 --> 00:34:21.840 That's the only way forward.

We are 800 00:36:35.480 --> 00:36:40.960 rounding third when it comes to Carneizar forever. All right. 801 00:36:41.000 --> 00:36:46.360 We have been on a crazy, crazy journey since March, 802 00:36:47.679 --> 00:36:54.840 chronicling nearly every James Bond film as to date, twenty 803 00:36:54.880 --> 00:36:59.320 two out of the twenty seven recognized although not necessarily 804 00:36:59.320 --> 00:37:06.320 officially Eon production James Bond films qualify front of the cinema. Okay, 805 00:37:06.760 --> 00:37:12.719 that was the reason why we said upon this journey 806 00:37:12.760 --> 00:37:15.920 was that so we could touch every single era of 807 00:37:16.519 --> 00:37:21.320 James Bond. And we are, we're we're coming close. We 808 00:37:21.440 --> 00:37:26.000 got two movies left, and you know, we get to 809 00:37:26.000 --> 00:37:33.400 put that one to bed. And it's I think you don't. 810 00:37:33.440 --> 00:37:36.599 You're gonna get way more for your dollar if you're 811 00:37:36.639 --> 00:37:40.920 a film fan, if you're a Bond fan, because it 812 00:37:41.000 --> 00:37:44.920 covers not only just James Bond, it covers the decline 813 00:37:45.159 --> 00:37:48.920 of MGM. It covers and This is not by design. 814 00:37:49.000 --> 00:37:53.000 This was just happenstance. It covers the rise and fall 815 00:37:53.119 --> 00:37:58.039 of producers, actors, the whole thing. I mean, it's it's 816 00:37:58.119 --> 00:38:04.480 really the the story had so many threads, more than 817 00:38:04.519 --> 00:38:08.239 I even thought. I always expect there to be more 818 00:38:08.639 --> 00:38:11.159 than what I you know, than what I thought was 819 00:38:11.199 --> 00:38:13.280 going to be there. But this was like I was like, 820 00:38:13.320 --> 00:38:17.920 holy shit, Like we're actually chronicling the demise of MGM, 821 00:38:18.000 --> 00:38:24.039 Like we're actually chronicling all of Albert Brockley's fucking career. Yep, 822 00:38:24.519 --> 00:38:26.679 we're actually you know, all these things. Like it's not 823 00:38:26.800 --> 00:38:30.599 just you know, you you jump onto these we decided 824 00:38:30.599 --> 00:38:34.000 to do these journeys, and we think, okay, it's gonna 825 00:38:34.000 --> 00:38:35.719 be you know, it's gonna be kind of a cut 826 00:38:35.760 --> 00:38:37.360 and dry thing. And it's like, well wait a minute, no, 827 00:38:37.519 --> 00:38:42.400 Like there's all these elements that we didn't even consider that, 828 00:38:42.760 --> 00:38:44.599 I mean, and there's been one through line that that 829 00:38:44.719 --> 00:38:47.639 finally comes to a head in in our next in 830 00:38:47.679 --> 00:38:51.599 our next film, and it's like this, it's a thing 831 00:38:51.599 --> 00:38:55.440 that's been brewing since day one, Since day one, it's 832 00:38:55.480 --> 00:38:58.760 been brewing, and and it's like all this it's just 833 00:38:59.320 --> 00:39:01.960 I don't know I I think it's I think you 834 00:39:02.000 --> 00:39:06.360 get more more than what you pay for in my opinion. 835 00:39:06.159 --> 00:39:08.000 And take it from me who hasn't seen a single 836 00:39:08.039 --> 00:39:10.519 Bond film from front to back until we started his journey. 837 00:39:11.639 --> 00:39:13.400 If you don't think you're into it, you'll be into 838 00:39:13.480 --> 00:39:17.039 it because the wrestlers that are part of the franchise 839 00:39:17.079 --> 00:39:19.960 over the years, from Harold soccata as odd Job to 840 00:39:20.920 --> 00:39:27.440 what Pat Roach, who is just a famed UK grappler 841 00:39:27.760 --> 00:39:31.000 slash stunt man that's just fascinating to learn about, Peter 842 00:39:31.039 --> 00:39:35.280 My via the High Chief Tiger, Joe Robinson unbelievable, and 843 00:39:35.360 --> 00:39:39.519 Milton Read Milton, I mean that's been as always. The 844 00:39:39.559 --> 00:39:46.079 fun is just is discovering wrestlers who I shouldn't say 845 00:39:46.079 --> 00:39:50.199 discovering rediscovering wrestlers whose careers have been lost to time. Yes, 846 00:39:50.400 --> 00:39:52.000 who's been lost to time, and in some cases are 847 00:39:52.039 --> 00:39:54.599 still hyper relevant like a certain animal. I mean, there's 848 00:39:55.000 --> 00:39:57.400 we're bookmarking the whole history of wrestling too. In a way, 849 00:39:58.159 --> 00:40:01.519 we're at least speaking to eras and geographies that we 850 00:40:01.599 --> 00:40:04.199 otherwise really wouldn't have cause to because there's got a 851 00:40:04.199 --> 00:40:06.440 ton of footage that exists to put on the table 852 00:40:06.440 --> 00:40:09.199 for traditional t left treatment. It's not unlike the lamentimal 853 00:40:09.239 --> 00:40:11.159 tragedy of World Class. We set out to figure out 854 00:40:11.159 --> 00:40:13.000 what happened to these boys. We ended up telling the 855 00:40:13.079 --> 00:40:16.079 entire story of Dallas Wrestling. We you know, the whole 856 00:40:16.159 --> 00:40:18.920 story of the Sportatorium. They had Maclamore days talking about 857 00:40:19.079 --> 00:40:22.039 Morris Siegel talking about how Fritz built what he you know, 858 00:40:22.079 --> 00:40:24.599 built the nest egg that he sent the kids off 859 00:40:24.599 --> 00:40:26.760 into to try to dominate. It's like, oh my god. 860 00:40:27.000 --> 00:40:29.679 And then like the further tentacles, what about lands von Eric, 861 00:40:29.719 --> 00:40:31.920 Like we didn't think about that, you know, what about 862 00:40:31.920 --> 00:40:34.119 what ends up happening to Chris Adams and how that 863 00:40:34.199 --> 00:40:37.199 kind of bespeaks the whole tragic cloud over the whole thing. 864 00:40:37.519 --> 00:40:39.280 What about what happens to Gino. It's like all of 865 00:40:39.320 --> 00:40:41.480 these branches on the tree that you know, you don't 866 00:40:41.480 --> 00:40:43.679 see it, and you start climbing that trunk, bitch, right, 867 00:40:44.199 --> 00:40:48.400 So get on the fucking trunk under the cinemat. Carnies 868 00:40:48.440 --> 00:40:52.039 are forever, and so is that Patreon, and so is 869 00:40:52.079 --> 00:40:55.079 that Patreon. And folks in the moat tier, which is 870 00:40:55.079 --> 00:40:57.360 the tip top tier, our ride or dies. Those we 871 00:40:57.400 --> 00:41:00.400 will make sure to make space on on the island. 872 00:41:00.400 --> 00:41:02.039 When we're the last people left on the planet. 873 00:41:02.679 --> 00:41:06.599 Listen, I will, I will, I will be like Hulk 874 00:41:06.599 --> 00:41:08.079 Hogan and brutis speaking. 875 00:41:08.159 --> 00:41:12.519 I will pump the blood yes of my veins. Okay, 876 00:41:12.599 --> 00:41:14.800 because it's folks like this, we love all our patrons. 877 00:41:15.280 --> 00:41:17.320 But every podcast that's going to have the life the 878 00:41:17.360 --> 00:41:20.000 life span we do has to have a strong core 879 00:41:20.119 --> 00:41:22.880 like our moat tier, have to have to have people 880 00:41:22.920 --> 00:41:25.480 that go above and beyond in terms of expressing support. 881 00:41:26.239 --> 00:41:28.480 You know, it's no different than public radio. You know, 882 00:41:28.519 --> 00:41:30.199 everyone you know puts a little bit in the pot, 883 00:41:30.239 --> 00:41:33.880 but really it's those consistent, big whale supporters that if 884 00:41:33.920 --> 00:41:36.679 they're not on board, panic sets in right. As far 885 00:41:36.719 --> 00:41:39.559 as making the making the fundraising rounds every quarter, these 886 00:41:39.559 --> 00:41:41.800 are your real seed funders. These are the folks that 887 00:41:41.880 --> 00:41:43.880 really put the cash on the table to make us 888 00:41:43.920 --> 00:41:47.000 take adventurous risks to say, you know what, fuck everything, 889 00:41:47.840 --> 00:41:50.840 We're going to keep doing something until we feel like 890 00:41:51.079 --> 00:41:53.880 it's done. We're going to go as long as we 891 00:41:53.960 --> 00:41:56.559 have to. We're going to clear out the decks as 892 00:41:56.599 --> 00:41:59.159 much as we have to be it to serenade sid 893 00:42:00.280 --> 00:42:02.880 to look at the wrestling influences in the Bond films, 894 00:42:03.159 --> 00:42:04.639 be it to talk about the life and times of 895 00:42:04.719 --> 00:42:07.559 Terry Funk. No one else has the luxury of being 896 00:42:07.599 --> 00:42:10.039 able to grind everything into a halt, put everything on 897 00:42:10.199 --> 00:42:12.760 order until the job is done. And what makes it 898 00:42:12.760 --> 00:42:14.760 worth it for everybody and you all know this by now, 899 00:42:15.159 --> 00:42:17.719 is that sitting in that archive of this podcast, that 900 00:42:17.880 --> 00:42:21.960 shelf life is unmatched. Unmatched are your wrestling You'll be 901 00:42:21.960 --> 00:42:23.960 able to go back there and confidently say that if 902 00:42:24.000 --> 00:42:26.400 I'm interested in this event, in this wrestler, or in 903 00:42:26.440 --> 00:42:30.599 this subject, this is all I'm reasonably going to need. Yes, 904 00:42:31.360 --> 00:42:35.280 to capture what they were about, what resonated about them 905 00:42:35.400 --> 00:42:39.239 or it and the flashpoints, and even beyond that, look 906 00:42:39.320 --> 00:42:45.199 no further than you know Holt mccallumy, okay. 907 00:42:45.199 --> 00:42:47.960 Yeah, oh fucking a.

So really, so 1813 01:34:47.319 --> 01:34:50.960 all this shit up here, he gets paid all this 1814 01:34:51.199 --> 01:34:56.760 nonsensical money for working six months. 1815 01:34:58.840 --> 01:35:02.439 Yeah, well you about in June, like how it's June 1816 01:35:02.520 --> 01:35:03.920 to December. 1817 01:35:04.000 --> 01:35:06.479 Yeah, I'm talking about how I'm talking about how it's 1818 01:35:07.119 --> 01:35:09.880 June to June. But he only has to work one 1819 01:35:09.920 --> 01:35:11.920 hundred eight days instead of three hundred and sixty five like. 1820 01:35:11.880 --> 01:35:14.760 He well three and sixty guy would be Yeah, they didn't. 1821 01:35:14.560 --> 01:35:17.199 Have Well I know, I know they I mean listen, 1822 01:35:17.199 --> 01:35:22.880 I know I get that. But still like that's he 1823 01:35:23.039 --> 01:35:26.800 is not required to perform beyond one hundred and eighty days. 1824 01:35:27.359 --> 01:35:29.720 No, there's probably not many. That's probably how many shows 1825 01:35:29.760 --> 01:35:33.119 they had. Honestly, they probably didn't have any. They probably 1826 01:35:33.199 --> 01:35:35.159 have one hundred and eighty. They probably had less honestly 1827 01:35:35.199 --> 01:35:37.039 by then because they cut down have shows so much 1828 01:35:39.119 --> 01:35:43.199 TV taping by then, well they were still taping Thunder separately. 1829 01:35:43.279 --> 01:35:46.399 But at a certain point in two thousand they switched 1830 01:35:46.439 --> 01:35:50.439 to taping Thunder the same night as Nitro. But you know, 1831 01:35:50.479 --> 01:35:53.479 one pay per view a month. So yeah, that's part 1832 01:35:53.479 --> 01:35:55.079 of the reason. That's part of the appeal to going 1833 01:35:55.079 --> 01:35:57.159 to WCW was they weren't on the road three hundred 1834 01:35:57.199 --> 01:35:59.920 days a year. You know, last. 1835 01:36:00.239 --> 01:36:16.079 Wrestling podcast, the wrestling podcast that knows the boys need 1836 01:36:16.119 --> 01:36:34.199 their candy. It's the Lapsed Fan. He's a lapsed fan 1837 01:36:34.279 --> 01:36:38.520 wrestling podcast with Jack and Carnacio, m JP Sorrow. 1838 01:36:39.119 --> 01:36:41.399 So we go back to where we started to reference 1839 01:36:41.760 --> 01:36:45.119 the schedule A and the compensation part of the agreement. 1840 01:36:45.159 --> 01:36:49.319 I believe that would be page four right, Mumm and 1841 01:36:49.439 --> 01:36:51.960 wrestler fatals to appear. After they do the breakdown of 1842 01:36:52.920 --> 01:36:56.039 forty percent pay per view, twenty five percent annual. I 1843 01:36:56.039 --> 01:36:58.479 don't understand, like why that's even in there, honestly, Like. 1844 01:36:58.920 --> 01:37:01.640 Well, that's just gonna be again, that's just gonna be 1845 01:37:01.720 --> 01:37:04.000 for bait. This is your base caught. You know, this 1846 01:37:04.079 --> 01:37:08.039 is not a specific contract, it's a base contract. And 1847 01:37:08.039 --> 01:37:10.199 then the writer at the end, I. 1848 01:37:10.199 --> 01:37:12.000 Should un't say why they have to set out like 1849 01:37:12.039 --> 01:37:13.600 that forty percent of his pay has to be from 1850 01:37:13.600 --> 01:37:14.119 pay per view. 1851 01:37:15.880 --> 01:37:21.600 Well, it's everybody. Yeah, it's everybody, and chances are other 1852 01:37:21.680 --> 01:37:23.800 people like HUV and Kude. Guerrera is not getting a 1853 01:37:23.880 --> 01:37:24.560 rider at the end. 1854 01:37:26.159 --> 01:37:28.000 You know that's true, But like everyone's going to be 1855 01:37:28.039 --> 01:37:30.600 a pay per view, so that how would you give 1856 01:37:30.640 --> 01:37:32.039 some guy, some guy who's never in pay per view 1857 01:37:32.079 --> 01:37:34.439 a contract that says forty percent of annual compensation is 1858 01:37:34.439 --> 01:37:35.239 going to be pay per view. 1859 01:37:35.800 --> 01:37:37.720 No, maybe that's the point. Maybe you don't get compensated 1860 01:37:37.760 --> 01:37:40.279 for pay per views or not on, but. 1861 01:37:40.319 --> 01:37:42.199 That it's not forty percent of your pay, that's for sure. 1862 01:37:42.720 --> 01:37:43.840 No, I don't know. 1863 01:37:43.880 --> 01:37:45.039 I don't know. So weird. I don't know why those 1864 01:37:45.039 --> 01:37:46.239 percentages are in there. I don't get it. 1865 01:37:46.279 --> 01:37:47.600 Let's just pay the people, Like what is it? 1866 01:37:48.119 --> 01:37:50.760 Why does it matter how much each little piece of 1867 01:37:50.800 --> 01:37:53.960 the each category of payment accounts for the whole pie. 1868 01:37:53.960 --> 01:37:55.039 I don't get why that's important. 1869 01:37:55.119 --> 01:38:00.760 Yeah, I don't know. It is kind of weird. I mean, 1870 01:38:00.840 --> 01:38:03.600 especially like especially for sid when he's getting paid a 1871 01:38:03.600 --> 01:38:05.039 few bonuses anyway. 1872 01:38:05.239 --> 01:38:07.760 Yeah, yeah, and exactly like you said, the writer sets 1873 01:38:07.760 --> 01:38:09.800 in much more clear terms. But I don't even get 1874 01:38:09.840 --> 01:38:13.239 why that's boiler plate language, like, oh you pay me 1875 01:38:13.239 --> 01:38:15.079 what you pay me, and that's that, Like, why does 1876 01:38:15.119 --> 01:38:17.560 it matter how much of it is pay per view? 1877 01:38:19.439 --> 01:38:25.199 Is it is strange? I mean I. 1878 01:38:27.199 --> 01:38:30.560 Maybe because maybe because they could go beyond the eight 1879 01:38:31.720 --> 01:38:32.279 Oh I. 1880 01:38:32.159 --> 01:38:35.159 Bet I know why. I bet I know why. This 1881 01:38:35.319 --> 01:38:40.000 is why because your your paycheck is not going to 1882 01:38:40.079 --> 01:38:45.720 be maybe your paycheck is different if like you know, 1883 01:38:46.479 --> 01:38:48.000 on say, I don't know how often they got paid. 1884 01:38:48.039 --> 01:38:49.600 I don't know what their pay schedule was, but if 1885 01:38:49.600 --> 01:38:53.960 you're paid every two weeks, maybe on you know, weeks 1886 01:38:54.000 --> 01:38:57.720 that are maybe like the two weeks that you don't 1887 01:38:57.720 --> 01:39:02.640 have a pay per view, you're not gonna get much money. Okay, 1888 01:39:02.640 --> 01:39:05.039 maybe yep, And maybe when you do a pay per 1889 01:39:05.119 --> 01:39:07.840 view you get more money. God it hit me the 1890 01:39:07.880 --> 01:39:08.840 fucking accountant for that. 1891 01:39:08.960 --> 01:39:10.720 But well, yeah, you get well, at least as far 1892 01:39:10.760 --> 01:39:13.439 as since contract is structured, you get paid, you know, 1893 01:39:13.439 --> 01:39:15.359 over fifty two weeks, you get nine hundred thousand in 1894 01:39:15.439 --> 01:39:17.399 year three and then on top of that, in certain 1895 01:39:17.439 --> 01:39:18.359 periods you'd get. 1896 01:39:18.399 --> 01:39:20.680 But I mean, yes, he does. But what if are 1897 01:39:20.680 --> 01:39:22.880 they going to distribute that in different ways? Like are 1898 01:39:22.880 --> 01:39:25.319 they going to say, hey, you know, we don't pay 1899 01:39:25.359 --> 01:39:29.239 you on you know, we don't pay you everything on 1900 01:39:30.600 --> 01:39:31.439 weeks where there are no. 1901 01:39:34.000 --> 01:39:35.560 You know, but that would make sense. Actually no, I 1902 01:39:35.640 --> 01:39:37.279 think they just get there. They get their salary like 1903 01:39:37.319 --> 01:39:41.239 anybody else would, and even increments every two weeks. Yeah, yeah, 1904 01:39:41.239 --> 01:39:43.119 and then you get like an extra thing on there 1905 01:39:43.159 --> 01:39:45.239 for the pay per view. But what I think maybe 1906 01:39:45.279 --> 01:39:46.880 the forty percent is maybe because you know, like it 1907 01:39:46.880 --> 01:39:49.720 says minimum eight, like if they if they gave him twelve, 1908 01:39:50.199 --> 01:39:54.439 then perhaps the pay per view slug of his earnings 1909 01:39:54.439 --> 01:39:55.720 would be more than forty percent. 1910 01:39:56.000 --> 01:39:56.319 Hmmm. 1911 01:39:57.079 --> 01:39:59.880 And maybe that this is a way to control that, 1912 01:40:00.520 --> 01:40:03.319 like putting him on every pay per view, like maybe 1913 01:40:03.920 --> 01:40:07.199 in in relation to his salary. I don't know. I 1914 01:40:07.439 --> 01:40:09.039 still I still quite get why that has to be 1915 01:40:09.039 --> 01:40:11.279 in there. But that's one thing that occurred to me. 1916 01:40:14.119 --> 01:40:15.960 Yeah, maybe maybe it is a maybe it is a 1917 01:40:15.960 --> 01:40:21.319 way you know what I bet this is what I'll 1918 01:40:21.319 --> 01:40:28.439 tell you what it is. It's so people can't say, well, 1919 01:40:28.479 --> 01:40:31.960 I did this, you know, I did this interview, photo shooting, 1920 01:40:31.960 --> 01:40:33.800 person appearances. Why am I going to pay extra for that? Well, 1921 01:40:33.800 --> 01:40:35.800 it's fifteen percent of what you get is from that, 1922 01:40:36.479 --> 01:40:40.079 Yeah I did, I did like twelve house shows. Why 1923 01:40:40.079 --> 01:40:41.680 am I going to paid extra for that well, because 1924 01:40:41.680 --> 01:40:44.039 it's part of your thing here, see twenty percent of 1925 01:40:44.079 --> 01:40:47.439 your pay. That that to me is the way way 1926 01:40:47.479 --> 01:40:51.319 it makes it basically, can't put the ceiling on it, right. 1927 01:40:51.359 --> 01:40:55.000 People can't come and ask more like, we've already included 1928 01:40:55.000 --> 01:40:56.960 that in part of your pay. It's not extra because 1929 01:40:57.000 --> 01:41:01.399 we've included it, even though you've done such and such. 1930 01:41:03.239 --> 01:41:07.560 That's where you get. You know, I don't know one 1931 01:41:07.560 --> 01:41:09.079 of our lawyers will say something. 1932 01:41:09.119 --> 01:41:11.319 But probably yeah, yeah, I think of that as more 1933 01:41:11.359 --> 01:41:13.800 of a gating factor kind of like like we're saying 1934 01:41:14.319 --> 01:41:18.800 where you know, it's it cuts both ways, Like the 1935 01:41:18.840 --> 01:41:20.640 guy can't ask for all this extra money for all 1936 01:41:20.640 --> 01:41:24.000 this extra work, and they can't really demand it one either. 1937 01:41:24.640 --> 01:41:26.720 It's like only fifteen percent of my pay can be 1938 01:41:26.760 --> 01:41:28.279 all these interviews in photo shoots. 1939 01:41:28.319 --> 01:41:30.199 But again, I'm looking at this, I'm looking at this. 1940 01:41:30.760 --> 01:41:34.600 I actually don't think of this as being now that 1941 01:41:34.680 --> 01:41:38.039 we've read the writer, like in a weird way, all 1942 01:41:38.079 --> 01:41:39.239 of this is null and void. 1943 01:41:39.760 --> 01:41:40.800 Yeah, it just doesn't apply. 1944 01:41:41.640 --> 01:41:43.600 It doesn't. But it's like they have to use their 1945 01:41:43.640 --> 01:41:46.239 base contract and then the rider comes into play for 1946 01:41:46.279 --> 01:41:49.319 the individuals. Yeah, for sure, for sure you know, like again, 1947 01:41:49.359 --> 01:41:52.520 this is what they'd give some fucking you know, this 1948 01:41:52.640 --> 01:41:54.600 is like what they gave Raymisterio in ninety six when 1949 01:41:54.600 --> 01:41:56.840 he came in. Yeah, like here, you know, listen, this 1950 01:41:56.920 --> 01:42:00.640 is what you get. No rider, you know, he's an idiot, 1951 01:42:00.640 --> 01:42:04.439 doesn't fucking ask for anything else, and so he gets 1952 01:42:04.960 --> 01:42:05.680 in a weird way. 1953 01:42:05.800 --> 01:42:08.479 Jypped, I know what you mean. I think this is 1954 01:42:08.520 --> 01:42:12.159 probably this is probably a version of a boilerplate contract, 1955 01:42:12.159 --> 01:42:14.239 that is, for people that they actually plan on featuring 1956 01:42:14.239 --> 01:42:15.840 and putting on pay per view. I don't think they 1957 01:42:15.880 --> 01:42:17.399 would give this to a guy that they would never 1958 01:42:17.399 --> 01:42:18.880 put on pay per view. Like I don't think Landy 1959 01:42:18.880 --> 01:42:21.880 Pofo had forty percent of his annual compensation comes from 1960 01:42:21.920 --> 01:42:23.640 pay per views. That doesn't even make any sense. 1961 01:42:24.039 --> 01:42:25.199 Yeah, maybe, but. 1962 01:42:25.119 --> 01:42:26.800 This is it to me. This is just like a 1963 01:42:26.800 --> 01:42:31.199 way to This is a way to keep under control 1964 01:42:31.319 --> 01:42:34.239 the amount of each category that can foist on the guy. 1965 01:42:35.079 --> 01:42:46.560 Yeah you know, yeah, Parada read that parts those those 1966 01:42:46.720 --> 01:42:47.760 nditions be rather. 1967 01:42:50.439 --> 01:42:53.920 Just pick it up after the after those percentages on 1968 01:42:54.039 --> 01:42:55.960 page page four. 1969 01:42:56.159 --> 01:42:58.399 I read that part. Though I heard part of that 1970 01:43:00.199 --> 01:43:04.000 I can read again. In the event wrestler fails to 1971 01:43:04.119 --> 01:43:08.119 timely appear in performance required by WCW, except by reason 1972 01:43:08.119 --> 01:43:11.800 of incapacity. WCW shall have the right to deduct pro 1973 01:43:11.920 --> 01:43:16.960 rated sums from wrestlers compensation payments based on the foregoing 1974 01:43:17.039 --> 01:43:23.159 appointment apportionment, divided by w CW's reasonable projection of wrestler's 1975 01:43:23.199 --> 01:43:26.880 number of annual appearances in each category. In the event 1976 01:43:26.920 --> 01:43:30.760 wrestler's unable to perform due to incapacity as defined below, 1977 01:43:31.119 --> 01:43:35.680 the terms of Section eight shall apply this right. WCW 1978 01:43:35.880 --> 01:43:38.640 shall be at addition to every other remedy now or 1979 01:43:38.720 --> 01:43:43.600 later existing at law or in equity, and shall not 1980 01:43:43.720 --> 01:43:45.920 in any way interfere with any rights on the part 1981 01:43:46.199 --> 01:43:51.000 of WCW to enjoin wrestler from any violation of disagreement 1982 01:43:51.119 --> 01:43:57.399 or any part thereof. Notwithstanding any reduction or deduction of 1983 01:43:57.439 --> 01:44:02.319 compensation payments pursued to this section, all remaining terms and 1984 01:44:02.439 --> 01:44:06.399 conditions of this agreement shell continue in full force and 1985 01:44:06.520 --> 01:44:11.079 effect unless and until terminated pursuant to the terms of. 1986 01:44:11.000 --> 01:44:14.479 This agreement, so he fails to appear as required unless 1987 01:44:14.479 --> 01:44:18.880 he's incapacitated, WCW can take can take away pro rated 1988 01:44:18.880 --> 01:44:23.000 sums from his payment based on the foregoing apportionment divided 1989 01:44:23.039 --> 01:44:25.319 by w w's revisional projection of wrestler's number of ango 1990 01:44:25.319 --> 01:44:27.840 appearances in each category. So this is this is further 1991 01:44:28.039 --> 01:44:30.359 like explaining why those forty percent pay per view and 1992 01:44:30.359 --> 01:44:32.039 all those numbers we just talked about are in there. 1993 01:44:32.319 --> 01:44:35.000 It's giving them kind of like a guide to use 1994 01:44:35.439 --> 01:44:36.720 when they want a deduct pay. 1995 01:44:37.960 --> 01:44:40.359 Except again, this is again, this is like where you're 1996 01:44:40.399 --> 01:44:43.960 talking about kind of a basic contract because all this 1997 01:44:44.079 --> 01:44:46.680 is not on void. Yeah, based on the writer, I 1998 01:44:46.680 --> 01:44:50.960 think so he's not deducted anything, yeah, at all for 1999 01:44:51.039 --> 01:44:53.600 missing things. He's guaranteed money no matter what he does. 2000 01:44:53.760 --> 01:44:57.359 I've been him a mate, Yeah, yep, yep. But I 2001 01:44:57.359 --> 01:45:01.520 think I think they are saying like, we could not 2002 01:45:01.600 --> 01:45:05.239 pay you for a ninth if you're incapacitated. That's kind 2003 01:45:05.239 --> 01:45:06.800 of how I read it. Like it's still it's still 2004 01:45:06.840 --> 01:45:08.760 in here for a reason. It's not totally null and void, 2005 01:45:08.840 --> 01:45:12.399 but it applies after all the guarantees are set and then. 2006 01:45:12.359 --> 01:45:12.960 Yeah, I guess so. 2007 01:45:13.119 --> 01:45:13.279 Yeah. 2008 01:45:14.760 --> 01:45:20.039 See, notwithstanding the foregoing apportionment for general payment purposes, Wrestler's 2009 01:45:20.159 --> 01:45:24.239 compensation shall be payable in equal installments on a twice 2010 01:45:24.279 --> 01:45:28.479 a month basis.

I think Ton of Sports Incorporated 2892 02:43:26.159 --> 02:43:31.479 or HHD corporation's ECW in the United States, Canada and Japan, 2893 02:43:31.680 --> 02:43:35.079 or or for broadcasts they're in so they could do 2894 02:43:35.120 --> 02:43:35.959 it in Mexico. 2895 02:43:36.600 --> 02:43:39.840 Yeah, yeah, I mean I guess that that's, uh, that's 2896 02:43:39.879 --> 02:43:41.559 a carve out so that they could still make some 2897 02:43:41.639 --> 02:43:45.680 money for one hundred and twenty days. It might be 2898 02:43:45.760 --> 02:43:48.719 hard to might be hard to actually exclude someone from 2899 02:43:48.760 --> 02:43:50.559 working anywhere for one hundred twenty days. I get the 2900 02:43:50.639 --> 02:43:53.399 sense that wings non completes, non competes do cover that 2901 02:43:53.719 --> 02:43:56.120 like anywhere in the world. But yeah, yeah, I don't know. 2902 02:43:56.159 --> 02:43:57.479 You think you'd have to limit that a little bit 2903 02:43:57.520 --> 02:43:58.639 to pass legal muscle. 2904 02:43:58.440 --> 02:44:00.719 Now, like you like, you know, this is their job, 2905 02:44:00.840 --> 02:44:02.399 this is what they do to make money.

I don't 2910 02:44:12.440 --> 02:44:15.920 think it was understood that. I know, WWE's contracts said 2911 02:44:16.040 --> 02:44:19.319 UFC for it was always like they said UFC wasn't competition. 2912 02:44:19.479 --> 02:44:21.319 Yet in their own contracts they would say you couldn't 2913 02:44:21.319 --> 02:44:24.520 fight in UFC, you can't fight legitimately, there's nothing to 2914 02:44:24.559 --> 02:44:26.840 hear about, mma. So Sid could have gone and fought 2915 02:44:26.840 --> 02:44:27.719 in the cage if we wanted. 2916 02:44:27.840 --> 02:44:29.440 Oh my god, can you imagine how we would how 2917 02:44:29.479 --> 02:44:35.159 we were broken in half in like five seconds.

Yeah, yeah, 2919 02:44:37.920 --> 02:44:41.280 they would imagine his fucking getting one punch by anybody. 2920 02:44:41.959 --> 02:44:43.959 He wouldn't be able to face anybody again after that 2921 02:44:44.000 --> 02:44:45.959 because he never he told himself he was in great 2922 02:44:46.040 --> 02:44:48.159 shape and that he was actually a fighter. 2923 02:44:48.360 --> 02:44:50.799 No, you know, you know, damn well he is.

No, no, no, this is like a 2930 02:45:13.840 --> 02:45:17.680 twig that's been on the ground for like two years, 2931 02:45:18.799 --> 02:45:19.920 completely dried out. 2932 02:45:21.879 --> 02:45:22.639 Let's go, boss. 2933 02:45:23.040 --> 02:45:26.000 That's that is the like I imagine, the color of 2934 02:45:27.319 --> 02:45:32.200 Sid's bones are just like they're just brown because they're 2935 02:45:32.280 --> 02:45:37.719 just ready to fucking fall apart. Wow, at any moment. 2936 02:45:38.719 --> 02:45:41.040 His his bone structure is a house of cards. 2937 02:45:42.840 --> 02:45:45.280 Oh, speaking of a house of cards, look how long 2938 02:45:45.440 --> 02:45:47.200 they can extend the non compete period. 2939 02:45:47.280 --> 02:45:50.719 Two Oh, here we go.

D Wow. 2943 02:46:01.159 --> 02:46:02.440 So if you do something to fuck up and they 2944 02:46:02.479 --> 02:46:04.319 can fire you for good cause as supposed to just 2945 02:46:04.399 --> 02:46:07.079 because they don't want you anymore for budget cuts, they 2946 02:46:07.120 --> 02:46:08.360 can ice you for six months. 2947 02:46:08.520 --> 02:46:14.680 That's ridiculous.

Yeah, And they never paid it off. They 3212 03:03:31.719 --> 03:03:33.319 never got around to saying who was going to be. 3213 03:03:33.719 --> 03:03:36.360 Bischoff Is subsequently said in his podcast that they never 3214 03:03:36.440 --> 03:03:38.520 intended it to be like a murder mystery kind of thing, 3215 03:03:38.959 --> 03:03:40.840 that they just needed some reason for Kevin Nash to 3216 03:03:40.879 --> 03:03:42.319 come into the pay per view hurt, or for some 3217 03:03:42.399 --> 03:03:44.559 reason they needed Nash hurt, so they came up with 3218 03:03:44.639 --> 03:03:47.559 this thing where you know, you were supposed to infer 3219 03:03:47.680 --> 03:03:50.319 that Randy Savage hired somebody to do this to Kevin Nash. 3220 03:03:50.440 --> 03:03:52.440 But who the person was wasn't really supposed to be 3221 03:03:52.479 --> 03:03:54.760 of interest to the audience. But of course this is 3222 03:03:54.840 --> 03:03:57.600 pro wrestling, and so the who done it is one 3223 03:03:57.600 --> 03:04:00.520 of the more irresistible storylines for the fight they on. 3224 03:04:00.959 --> 03:04:03.680 So they made it a thing without wsw realizing or 3225 03:04:03.719 --> 03:04:05.600 having the foresight to realize it was going to become 3226 03:04:05.600 --> 03:04:07.639 a thing, and having a plan to deliver on a 3227 03:04:07.719 --> 03:04:10.799 mystery that actually maybe caught the attention of fans for once. 3228 03:04:10.879 --> 03:04:12.840 On like most of what they used to do, they 3229 03:04:12.879 --> 03:04:15.239 had no plan, So it's almost like they were a 3230 03:04:15.399 --> 03:04:20.159 jury rigging an explanation here in debuting sid on the 3231 03:04:20.159 --> 03:04:23.239 pay per view. Yeah, I'll say, because you heard Chavanni 3232 03:04:23.360 --> 03:04:26.000 kind of prevaricate and be like, well, you know, you 3233 03:04:26.120 --> 03:04:27.840 might have to throw logic out the window. But it 3234 03:04:27.879 --> 03:04:29.840 stands to reason that syd was behind the wheel now 3235 03:04:29.879 --> 03:04:31.920 that we see him on the scene here. But he 3236 03:04:32.040 --> 03:04:34.399 was sure to say that this is no confirmation of such, 3237 03:04:34.479 --> 03:04:37.440 because of course they had no plan on delivering on 3238 03:04:37.479 --> 03:04:39.399 the mystery of who it was. But perhaps we're feeling 3239 03:04:39.399 --> 03:04:41.879 the pressure of not having an answer to that question 3240 03:04:41.959 --> 03:04:43.600 and the fin interest in it, and maybe thought that 3241 03:04:43.639 --> 03:04:48.600 that would suffice so kind of an illustrative illusion there 3242 03:04:48.680 --> 03:04:51.879 made by Tony Shavanni to one of the many botched 3243 03:04:51.920 --> 03:04:54.440 and goofy things going on at World Championship Wrestling at 3244 03:04:54.479 --> 03:04:56.840 the time. But there he is, and he power bombs 3245 03:04:56.920 --> 03:04:59.280 Nash one hundred percent. Man, he gets them up better 3246 03:04:59.319 --> 03:05:00.719 than he ever did in the WWF ring. 3247 03:05:00.760 --> 03:05:03.319 I can tell you that it's funny how they couldn't 3248 03:05:03.319 --> 03:05:05.559 do that when it fucking mattered at pay per view 3249 03:05:05.600 --> 03:05:09.159 that time, right, I know, But the idiot are going to. 3250 03:05:09.159 --> 03:05:11.639 Get another try at it. And as Tony Shivani said 3251 03:05:11.639 --> 03:05:12.799 at the wrap of the pay per view, we'll see 3252 03:05:12.799 --> 03:05:14.680 you the next night on Nitro to sort it all out. 3253 03:05:15.159 --> 03:05:17.959 And indeed we did, as sit in Nash come face 3254 03:05:18.040 --> 03:05:19.360 to face all these years later. 3255 03:05:20.280 --> 03:05:22.239 When I didn't come out here tonight to talk to 3256 03:05:22.399 --> 03:05:33.200 macho man, I came out here tonight to talk to you, Sid. 3257 03:05:39.719 --> 03:05:42.000 I don't know where the hell you've been, and I 3258 03:05:42.079 --> 03:05:42.920 don't really care. 3259 03:05:43.559 --> 03:05:45.879 I know you're in the building, and I watch you 3260 03:05:46.120 --> 03:05:53.479 tonight for this strap and this root now straps really yes, we. 3261 03:05:53.600 --> 03:05:56.399 Know he's heir toe and he says, tonight, I wanted. 3262 03:05:56.200 --> 03:05:58.520 To be coming behind give me a kick in the 3263 03:05:58.600 --> 03:06:02.639 face and power Bob, Well, big boy, bring it tonight 3264 03:06:02.760 --> 03:06:04.280 because I'm here to kick your. 3265 03:06:04.239 --> 03:06:12.479 Asss I think mister Nash is ted serious. 3266 03:06:17.559 --> 03:06:22.639 So Sid even with these sweet sandals on, come on 3267 03:06:22.840 --> 03:06:26.040 down because I'm ready to give you a good old 3268 03:06:26.239 --> 03:06:26.959 beating boy. 3269 03:06:28.719 --> 03:06:29.600 Okay, say it again. 3270 03:06:36.600 --> 03:06:38.959 See Nash, I know you're real well. 3271 03:06:39.920 --> 03:06:43.680 I do exactly what button to brush.

You've got it. It is really odd. 3288 03:07:36.120 --> 03:07:39.159 The world Heavy White Title up programs two of the 3289 03:07:39.280 --> 03:07:41.639 biggest toughest men in this sport. 3290 03:07:41.920 --> 03:07:44.159 And this being WCW. In nineteen ninety nine, they came 3291 03:07:44.200 --> 03:07:47.360 out later in the episode, brawled a bit, Sting got involved, 3292 03:07:47.479 --> 03:07:50.159 clotheslined him over the top of jeans. Sid that is, 3293 03:07:51.239 --> 03:07:53.280 and it becomes very clear that the WCW had no 3294 03:07:53.399 --> 03:07:56.079 intention whatsoever of delivering Nash versus Sid on this night. 3295 03:07:56.239 --> 03:07:56.360 Row. 3296 03:07:57.239 --> 03:08:01.479 More importantly to you, though, What'spishoff doing on comment. 3297 03:08:01.239 --> 03:08:04.959 Tear while trying to salvage WCW. This is that really 3298 03:08:05.000 --> 03:08:06.520 short period of time where he was still kind of 3299 03:08:06.559 --> 03:08:08.600 pop poking his head out before Russo came in. 3300 03:08:09.520 --> 03:08:11.319 I didn't really know that he was doing that. I 3301 03:08:11.360 --> 03:08:13.760 didn't know. I mean, listen, I heard him on the 3302 03:08:13.840 --> 03:08:16.600 fucking I'm a VHS with Hogan on commentary and like, 3303 03:08:16.680 --> 03:08:18.040 what the fuck is going on here? 3304 03:08:18.520 --> 03:08:20.760 Yeah? He comes back in ninety nine with the white hair, 3305 03:08:20.840 --> 03:08:24.200 and he does a couple of angles and he tries 3306 03:08:24.239 --> 03:08:26.719 a couple of things to get Nitro going again. He 3307 03:08:27.159 --> 03:08:30.319 rejoins the Announced team, perhaps to bring back some of 3308 03:08:30.360 --> 03:08:32.120 that spark when he was on the Announced team during 3309 03:08:32.159 --> 03:08:34.440 the you know ww's insurgent days. 3310 03:08:34.479 --> 03:08:37.440 Yes, how can he do that? How does he rationalize 3311 03:08:37.479 --> 03:08:40.920 that after nWo? Yeah? 3312 03:08:41.000 --> 03:08:43.399 No, he just comes out. He comes out at Springstampede 3313 03:08:43.399 --> 03:08:46.559 and April after nWo reforms and it has like crosswords 3314 03:08:46.600 --> 03:08:49.000 with Hull Cogan, and it's supposed to indicate that there's 3315 03:08:49.040 --> 03:08:50.959 been some tension behind the scenes between the two and 3316 03:08:51.280 --> 03:08:54.040 that their old alliance has now been fractured. That he's 3317 03:08:54.120 --> 03:08:57.079 kind of like, okay, that he wasn't really clued into 3318 03:08:57.079 --> 03:08:58.399 the reformation of the nWo. 3319 03:08:58.639 --> 03:09:00.559 He wasn't in on that. 3320 03:09:01.280 --> 03:09:03.200 I mean they did, they didn't specify too much. He 3321 03:09:03.239 --> 03:09:05.799 just showed up and hardly said anything because they wanted 3322 03:09:05.840 --> 03:09:07.760 to transition back into him just being an announcer as 3323 03:09:07.799 --> 03:09:11.159 opposed to a character, a storyline character and. 3324 03:09:11.280 --> 03:09:12.639 Just eat and then all just seems lame. 3325 03:09:12.760 --> 03:09:16.959 Yeah, And come September, he's getting sent home by by 3326 03:09:17.000 --> 03:09:20.159 Bill Bush, who brings in well by Harvey Schiller, and 3327 03:09:20.200 --> 03:09:25.559 then Bill Bush brings in Vince Russo, and then eventually 3328 03:09:25.600 --> 03:09:29.280 it brings Bischoff back. In April, Brad Siegel does Brad 3329 03:09:29.280 --> 03:09:32.040 Siegel also involved. I think Brad Siegel took over from 3330 03:09:32.360 --> 03:09:34.879 Harvey Schiller and then Brad Siegel sent Bischoff home. I 3331 03:09:34.879 --> 03:09:37.440 think it's how it went in September of nineteen ninety nine. 3332 03:09:37.719 --> 03:09:40.719 So this is really the last vestiges, the last fumes 3333 03:09:40.760 --> 03:09:44.879 of Bischoff and that initial WCW run. But yeah, I mean, 3334 03:09:44.959 --> 03:09:46.959 just so Nitro to do a promo like that at 3335 03:09:46.959 --> 03:09:49.000 the top of the show, to have Britt Bischoff expressly 3336 03:09:49.120 --> 03:09:51.440 say that National said, you know, there's buzz about Sid 3337 03:09:51.520 --> 03:09:54.399 coming into WCWS. I talked about the Nation said we're 3338 03:09:54.399 --> 03:09:56.159 going to wrestle that night a Nitro for the title. 3339 03:09:56.319 --> 03:09:57.600 And they get in the ring and just have a 3340 03:09:57.680 --> 03:10:00.760 brawl and Sting comes and there's the doesn't even ring. 3341 03:10:01.159 --> 03:10:02.559 There really even is no match. 3342 03:10:03.680 --> 03:10:05.319 I mean you know that. I mean, why are you 3343 03:10:05.399 --> 03:10:08.680 surprised they did that so often? Right, and they could 3344 03:10:08.680 --> 03:10:11.840 at least afford it. You should not even I mean 3345 03:10:11.959 --> 03:10:13.920 especially you should not even have I have thought there 3346 03:10:14.000 --> 03:10:15.600 was going to be a match. You should have presumed 3347 03:10:16.600 --> 03:10:17.799 it was going to be a Schmaus. 3348 03:10:17.959 --> 03:10:20.719 Yes, right, And looking more closely at the dates, the 3349 03:10:21.040 --> 03:10:22.920 Great American Bash where we just heard Sid return was 3350 03:10:23.000 --> 03:10:25.399 June seventh of nineteen ninety nine, and the contract we 3351 03:10:25.479 --> 03:10:28.319 just read into the record this June ninth, nineteen ninety nine, 3352 03:10:28.399 --> 03:10:31.360 so he's not under a valid contract at the time 3353 03:10:31.399 --> 03:10:34.479 he appeared. Wow, I'm sure that was a retroactive payday 3354 03:10:34.520 --> 03:10:34.840 for him. 3355 03:10:35.319 --> 03:10:37.760 So if we're uh fifty fifty grand. 3356 03:10:38.360 --> 03:10:40.799 If we're ready, we've hit the point and our journey 3357 03:10:40.879 --> 03:10:45.239 to turn to the millennium Man WCWVHS release Boss. Let's 3358 03:10:45.319 --> 03:10:48.200 fucking fire up that Superstar series. Consider this one of 3359 03:10:48.239 --> 03:10:51.200 the deep dives in our SID tribune, alongside the February seventeenth, 3360 03:10:51.280 --> 03:10:53.719 nineteen ninety seven Monday Night Raw. This really gets us 3361 03:10:53.719 --> 03:10:57.639 acquainted with sid's essence during this WCW run, and we 3362 03:10:57.799 --> 03:11:01.000 open on these marble column things with some footage. 3363 03:11:01.360 --> 03:11:03.639 Well, hold on, first of all, this is this is 3364 03:11:04.959 --> 03:11:06.719 I want to just say, I want to preface. I 3365 03:11:06.760 --> 03:11:08.479 had no idea what to expect with this fucking thing, 3366 03:11:09.360 --> 03:11:15.680 and I don't like. We got so many company logos. 3367 03:11:16.840 --> 03:11:20.280 I was blown away by it. There's the Warner Brothers 3368 03:11:20.319 --> 03:11:26.239 home video logo, which I expected, Then there's w CW 3369 03:11:26.440 --> 03:11:32.520 the Spaceship logo, and then there was the Mandalay Pictures 3370 03:11:32.719 --> 03:11:35.920 one which I was not expecting at all, which is 3371 03:11:36.000 --> 03:11:39.760 the Tiger uh running in the jungle. 3372 03:11:39.920 --> 03:11:41.959 Yeah, that's hard to see in a wrestling tape. 3373 03:11:42.520 --> 03:11:45.360 I don't know. I'm trying to think of who who 3374 03:11:45.520 --> 03:11:52.040 owns them and why they would have man lay Peter 3375 03:11:52.120 --> 03:12:00.799 Gouber of all fucking people. Lions Gate owned by Sony. 3376 03:12:01.000 --> 03:12:04.479 Is it Turner Home Entertainment at the time, No, because 3377 03:12:04.520 --> 03:12:09.159 Peter Gouber was something mighty Bischoff would hunh, Peter Grueber, Goober, 3378 03:12:09.200 --> 03:12:10.959 is that what it is? Yeah, Peter Goober and someone 3379 03:12:11.000 --> 03:12:13.239 Bishoff would bring up after w CW folded as someone 3380 03:12:13.280 --> 03:12:16.399 that was potentially interested in financing a purchase. 3381 03:12:17.120 --> 03:12:19.479 Yeah, man, I'm sure he was not under man Peter 3382 03:12:19.680 --> 03:12:21.760 Peter Guber. We talked about Peter Geoberg quite a bit 3383 03:12:21.840 --> 03:12:26.639 on cinemat He's one of the people who you know, 3384 03:12:27.000 --> 03:12:34.280 destroyed almost destroyed Sony. But yeah, all this stuff with 3385 03:12:34.360 --> 03:12:37.680 was Sony. I don't know what the relationship is and 3386 03:12:37.840 --> 03:12:41.079 why unless they were just unless he convinced them, unless 3387 03:12:41.120 --> 03:12:42.920 Bischoff was like friends with them and convinced them that 3388 03:12:43.079 --> 03:12:49.000 to to to produce or put their name on the 3389 03:12:49.360 --> 03:12:51.200 must have distributed the like that. But it was just 3390 03:12:51.280 --> 03:12:53.399 a weird That was a weird one for me. 3391 03:12:53.680 --> 03:12:56.479 Andala Entertainment is that what it is? 3392 03:12:58.040 --> 03:13:03.040 Yeah, Yeah, Mandally entertainment. It's looking for any that's yeah, 3393 03:13:03.040 --> 03:13:07.840 that's Peter Gouber and that's not Again, they have no 3394 03:13:07.920 --> 03:13:12.719 affiliation with anybody. I mean, what was did did hold on? 3395 03:13:15.159 --> 03:13:15.200 No? 3396 03:13:15.319 --> 03:13:21.799 Because TVs, there's definitely TBS. Did they had MGM that 3397 03:13:22.000 --> 03:13:29.600 wasn't necessarily Sony. Yeah, it's a weird connection. Like I'm 3398 03:13:29.639 --> 03:13:35.200 trying to think of something that would Yeah. Yeah, there's 3399 03:13:35.200 --> 03:13:38.000 no connection there that, I mean, no superficial connection anyway. 3400 03:13:38.200 --> 03:13:41.639 I think Mandally was involved in the distribution of w 3401 03:13:41.760 --> 03:13:44.959 CW home videos, perhaps after. 3402 03:13:44.840 --> 03:13:46.319 Turner Home Entertainment. 3403 03:13:48.079 --> 03:13:50.639 To some degree. Someone tells me that they were involved 3404 03:13:50.680 --> 03:13:52.840 in home video distribution for w STEP. 3405 03:13:52.920 --> 03:13:56.639 Well, they certainly were. Obviously we're definitely seeing that. So 3406 03:13:56.760 --> 03:14:00.879 there's a connection, but it's it's it's a weird It's 3407 03:14:00.920 --> 03:14:03.000 what's weird to me is that it's coming from an 3408 03:14:03.079 --> 03:14:06.479 organization that's got nothing to do with the home base. 3409 03:14:07.680 --> 03:14:09.200 With the home base. Yeah, maybe they I don't know, 3410 03:14:09.280 --> 03:14:13.000 maybe WW dial Turner Home Entertainment dialed back its VHS 3411 03:14:13.559 --> 03:14:16.520 distribution function a bit and outsourced it. 3412 03:14:16.600 --> 03:14:19.200 Well, still being they're being distributed by Warner Brothers too, 3413 03:14:19.280 --> 03:14:21.040 which is the thing I whish they've done before. I've 3414 03:14:21.079 --> 03:14:24.000 seen that before. I know, Time Warner and all that shit, 3415 03:14:24.079 --> 03:14:27.440 it all, you know, that all comes into play. But 3416 03:14:27.639 --> 03:14:30.280 like Mentally, is like on the other fucking side of 3417 03:14:30.319 --> 03:14:33.319 town interesting in this regards. That's what's weird to me 3418 03:14:33.440 --> 03:14:33.719 about it. 3419 03:14:33.760 --> 03:14:37.440 I see if I can find anything, because, yeah, Peter 3420 03:14:37.559 --> 03:14:42.639 Guber was somebody that before the Fusian Media Ventures Group 3421 03:14:42.719 --> 03:14:46.760 came along as an owner, as a potential buyer WCW 3422 03:14:46.959 --> 03:14:50.200 and had the purchase in sale agreement. Peter Guber and 3423 03:14:50.280 --> 03:14:55.559 Mentally Entertainment were talked about as potentially being interested in WW. 3424 03:14:56.360 --> 03:14:58.079 Yeah. I just don't believe that for one second. 3425 03:14:58.120 --> 03:15:01.879 Yeah, that was that was out there. It wasn't really ever, 3426 03:15:03.799 --> 03:15:07.159 it wasn't ever really like an exceptionally sourced rumor, but 3427 03:15:07.319 --> 03:15:10.600 there were some press trade reports. I think it was 3428 03:15:10.639 --> 03:15:13.719 even as soon as, like god, I want to say 3429 03:15:13.760 --> 03:15:15.920 the spring of two thousand, even or the summer of 3430 03:15:15.959 --> 03:15:20.360 two thousand. It was like way before the other buyers 3431 03:15:20.440 --> 03:15:24.040 came through. Is as confirmed. So it's Mandalay Entertainment, right, 3432 03:15:24.120 --> 03:15:27.040 you said, Yeah, So what I'm gonna try to do 3433 03:15:27.280 --> 03:15:29.799 is see if I can find reference to them. 3434 03:15:30.360 --> 03:15:33.479 I just can't see Peter Guber. I mean, I know 3435 03:15:33.639 --> 03:15:35.520 wrestling was a hot thing and it doesn't really matter 3436 03:15:35.600 --> 03:15:39.319 what you like you're into, but like, I just can't 3437 03:15:39.319 --> 03:15:41.360 see Peter Guber being someone who was like, yeah, you know, 3438 03:15:41.399 --> 03:15:42.920 and I want to fucking buy a wrestling company. 3439 03:15:43.040 --> 03:15:45.799 They were gonna, yeah, They're gonna do it in Vegas. Yeah, 3440 03:15:45.799 --> 03:15:49.840 all right, let's see television Week July thirtieth, two thousand. 3441 03:15:53.120 --> 03:15:59.520 Let's see describe our productions were rageous. Okay, Yeah. Working 3442 03:15:59.600 --> 03:16:01.680 with them on the project is Jason Hervey, who is 3443 03:16:01.719 --> 03:16:04.079 now a principal partner in the Sports Entertainment division of 3444 03:16:04.120 --> 03:16:05.040 Mandally Entertainment. 3445 03:16:05.760 --> 03:16:08.799 Ah, there we go, all right, the old That explains 3446 03:16:08.799 --> 03:16:10.600 a lot, because I know I definitely saw Hervey's name 3447 03:16:10.639 --> 03:16:11.639 and the end credits of this one. 3448 03:16:12.239 --> 03:16:16.280 Yep, yep, the old pal And here's another reference in 3449 03:16:16.280 --> 03:16:17.040 electronic metis. 3450 03:16:17.120 --> 03:16:20.399 Now that all makes sense. Okay, So now I can 3451 03:16:20.479 --> 03:16:25.360 believe that Peter Guber could be convinced by Jason Hervey 3452 03:16:26.840 --> 03:16:30.360 to buy WCW. Just like but like Eric Bischoff talking 3453 03:16:30.399 --> 03:16:31.879 to Gouber, I'm just like, I can't think of that. 3454 03:16:31.959 --> 03:16:33.959 I'm going there as being it, like I don't buy it. 3455 03:16:34.159 --> 03:16:39.159 But now with Hervey being being involved, that makes sense, 3456 03:16:39.280 --> 03:16:39.520 got it? 3457 03:16:39.840 --> 03:16:42.760 Okay, we found our missing link. 3458 03:16:43.479 --> 03:16:43.840 There we go. 3459 03:16:44.440 --> 03:16:47.239 Yeah, here's an article about Peter Guber from Variety, August 3460 03:16:47.239 --> 03:16:52.680 twenty third, nineteen ninety nine.

Okay, so 3627 03:26:50.040 --> 03:26:52.680 that means Sid or any Savage the title must change 3628 03:26:52.719 --> 03:26:53.559 hands for some reason. 3629 03:26:53.879 --> 03:26:56.280 And what if I wanted to pin, can I win 3630 03:26:56.319 --> 03:26:56.639 the title? 3631 03:26:57.360 --> 03:27:02.239 Unbelievable men who cared a little about world title belts. 3632 03:27:02.319 --> 03:27:05.479 Michael Buffer says on the introductions, So where do I 3633 03:27:05.600 --> 03:27:06.040 sign up? 3634 03:27:06.079 --> 03:27:06.120 What? 3635 03:27:06.399 --> 03:27:07.440 Where do I sign up? 3636 03:27:07.799 --> 03:27:08.520 That's what he says. 3637 03:27:08.600 --> 03:27:13.680 Yes, Yes, the viciously dangerous point man of Team Savage. 3638 03:27:15.639 --> 03:27:17.840 So it's stinging Kevin Nash versus Randy Savage and sid 3639 03:27:17.879 --> 03:27:19.280 in the main event of Bachelor of the Beach nineteen 3640 03:27:19.319 --> 03:27:22.639 ninety nine, Gorgeous George. If you noticed Boss the blonde 3641 03:27:22.680 --> 03:27:25.079 bombshell and Randy Savage's corner in his real life girlfriend, 3642 03:27:25.239 --> 03:27:26.440 she has a black eye, doesn't she? 3643 03:27:27.879 --> 03:27:28.799 Who was that a legit one? 3644 03:27:28.879 --> 03:27:31.520 They played around with a storyline where Savage was beaten 3645 03:27:32.079 --> 03:27:37.840 Gorgeous George because you know, soap opera ratings heel, and 3646 03:27:37.920 --> 03:27:40.520 they basically shied away from it immediately after some pushback 3647 03:27:40.559 --> 03:27:42.600 and outcry. So they made reference to it here in 3648 03:27:42.639 --> 03:27:44.000 the pay per view and kind of made it seem 3649 03:27:44.159 --> 03:27:47.440 like Gorgeous George was siding with Kevin Nash to rebel 3650 03:27:47.440 --> 03:27:50.000 against the abuse of Randy Savage, only too in the 3651 03:27:50.120 --> 03:27:52.680 end turn on Nash and help Savage anyway, But they 3652 03:27:52.799 --> 03:27:54.840 never really made reference again that. There was some crazy 3653 03:27:54.920 --> 03:27:58.120 scene one time in a nitro where Savage flew off 3654 03:27:58.120 --> 03:28:00.479 the handle. It was supposed to be, you know, portraying 3655 03:28:00.559 --> 03:28:05.000 this abusive towards women mental case, and he actually got 3656 03:28:05.079 --> 03:28:06.920 so carried away in the moment that he slapped Tory 3657 03:28:06.959 --> 03:28:07.760 Wilson in the face. 3658 03:28:08.399 --> 03:28:09.000 Are you serious? 3659 03:28:09.319 --> 03:28:12.479 Nitro? But he didn't his slap her hard enough to 3660 03:28:12.559 --> 03:28:15.600 be a real problem. And she famously laughed on a 3661 03:28:15.680 --> 03:28:18.959 live Nitro after Randy Savage last, Wow, she couldn't keep 3662 03:28:19.159 --> 03:28:21.000 a straight face at the absurdity. 3663 03:28:20.559 --> 03:28:22.520 Of how he's such a fucking goof. 3664 03:28:23.200 --> 03:28:28.159 He's such a bit, such good stuff back then. So Hannibal, 3665 03:28:28.319 --> 03:28:30.239 who did several interviews would sit over the years, talked 3666 03:28:30.239 --> 03:28:32.159 to him about teaming with Randy Savage in this run, 3667 03:28:32.239 --> 03:28:35.200 and he says it was pretty cool, but you know, 3668 03:28:35.440 --> 03:28:38.079 Savage maybe was living his character too much at the time. 3669 03:28:38.559 --> 03:28:40.639 He says, he'll never forget one time they'd been up 3670 03:28:40.639 --> 03:28:43.760 all night at a Nitro doing vignettes, shooting vignettes where 3671 03:28:43.799 --> 03:28:48.000 Randy was getting gorgeous George back from Kevin Nash. Sid 3672 03:28:48.040 --> 03:28:49.799 recalls it going to like four or five in the 3673 03:28:49.879 --> 03:28:53.040 morning this shoot, and so he's going from the shooting 3674 03:28:53.079 --> 03:28:54.719 on site to his rental car after it's all over, 3675 03:28:55.000 --> 03:28:58.040 about six in the morning, planning to just go to 3676 03:28:58.079 --> 03:29:00.920 the airport and get home.

They had to pin Naw. 3760 03:33:08.680 --> 03:33:12.159 Oh I see, yeah, well I was saying that, but 3761 03:33:12.639 --> 03:33:15.120 I think that that should have been ruled then for sure. 3762 03:33:15.479 --> 03:33:17.200 Yeah, because the first they did they could have easily 3763 03:33:17.280 --> 03:33:19.600 done with a run in exactly. 3764 03:33:19.280 --> 03:33:22.559 The same right, exactly I did want to stay here. 3765 03:33:22.639 --> 03:33:26.920 There's a funny bit. So in these clips, Sid's working 3766 03:33:27.000 --> 03:33:29.079 on staying and then Nash comes into help out and 3767 03:33:29.200 --> 03:33:31.799 Shavanni makes a very funny comment about Nash that kind 3768 03:33:31.840 --> 03:33:35.479 of goes in. It plays very well with how we 3769 03:33:35.559 --> 03:33:36.360 think of Kevin Nash. 3770 03:33:37.360 --> 03:33:41.239 Kevin Ash's first any offense as he raked the back 3771 03:33:41.239 --> 03:33:42.120 of the head at that time. 3772 03:33:43.559 --> 03:33:45.639 He hadn't been in mat the entire fucking time. When 3773 03:33:45.680 --> 03:33:49.000 he comes in and Schevanni fucking comments on it, I 3774 03:33:49.040 --> 03:33:52.079 was like, it was great. Back to the studio, Oh, 3775 03:33:52.520 --> 03:33:55.680 here we go get him talking about being a part 3776 03:33:55.680 --> 03:33:56.479 of Team Madness. 3777 03:33:57.719 --> 03:34:00.399 Being part of Team Madness was an experience. It's a 3778 03:34:00.879 --> 03:34:04.440 thing about it. The enjoyment for me was the Randy Savage, 3779 03:34:04.760 --> 03:34:08.200 someone who, in a weird way, is a lot like 3780 03:34:08.319 --> 03:34:14.639 said Vicious, real intense, a professional at all aspects from 3781 03:34:14.680 --> 03:34:20.319 his attire to his interviews in the ring, everything, his entourage, 3782 03:34:20.319 --> 03:34:25.280 stuff like that. But that's where it stopped. I'm not 3783 03:34:25.559 --> 03:34:27.920 part of an entourage. There it is, and I don't 3784 03:34:28.000 --> 03:34:32.000 want an entourage, and I don't need an entourage. 3785 03:34:33.639 --> 03:34:39.520 What an ter odd No, Jeremy Pivit and shit, no 3786 03:34:39.760 --> 03:34:43.079 that I understand an nter Odge untero Odge. So yeah, 3787 03:34:43.079 --> 03:34:46.360 it's not gonna last long. I love this half shoot, 3788 03:34:46.440 --> 03:34:47.440 half work sid here. 3789 03:34:48.520 --> 03:34:49.959 Yeah, it's very it's very odd. 3790 03:34:50.200 --> 03:34:53.040 The July seventeenth, ninety nine Nitro, it's you, mister Hogan. 3791 03:34:53.120 --> 03:34:56.079 You have something that belongs to me. So after breaking 3792 03:34:56.120 --> 03:34:59.159 off from team Savage said, Vicious is now engaging in 3793 03:34:59.200 --> 03:35:00.719 a one on one feud, picking up with the left 3794 03:35:00.760 --> 03:35:04.440 off in nineteen ninety two with the Hulkster starts saying 3795 03:35:04.479 --> 03:35:06.600 master Ruler of the world, Hollywood baby, and. 3796 03:35:06.760 --> 03:35:10.000 Another thing too, Like you also realize that in the 3797 03:35:10.200 --> 03:35:12.559 midst of this of like the events that are that 3798 03:35:12.639 --> 03:35:17.040 are highlighted in this in this video, that Hogan also 3799 03:35:17.200 --> 03:35:18.879 turns back to the red and yellow. Yeah. 3800 03:35:19.719 --> 03:35:21.680 Yeah, they capture a lot of the absurdity of nineteen 3801 03:35:21.760 --> 03:35:24.719 ninety nine, if just by mistake or happenstance on this tape. 3802 03:35:25.239 --> 03:35:27.760 It's just crazy how much happens in so little. 3803 03:35:27.879 --> 03:35:31.159 They keep trying, they keep resetting that because nothing's working, 3804 03:35:31.280 --> 03:35:34.000 so they're just reshuffling the deck every two to three weeks. 3805 03:35:34.040 --> 03:35:36.959 On Nitro, it feels like I remember, like Hogan came back, 3806 03:35:37.040 --> 03:35:39.399 he beat Savage for the championship in April of ninety 3807 03:35:39.479 --> 03:35:41.959 nine did a pretty good rating for the world title. 3808 03:35:42.000 --> 03:35:44.319 It's like, Okay, now Hogan's back on top. Great and 3809 03:35:44.399 --> 03:35:47.000 then he just just and then it just doesn't go anywhere, 3810 03:35:47.239 --> 03:35:49.639 It doesn't continue to draw, and then he's losing the belt. 3811 03:35:49.719 --> 03:35:51.719 He cycles out, and then he cycles back in and 3812 03:35:51.760 --> 03:35:54.120 wrestles Sid and then he comes back and wrestles Sid 3813 03:35:54.239 --> 03:35:57.639 is red and yellow, And it's just like this constant 3814 03:35:57.840 --> 03:36:01.520 series of Hogan and Nash really and Hogan and Bischoff 3815 03:36:02.360 --> 03:36:04.360 trying to figure out a new way to spark is 3816 03:36:04.399 --> 03:36:06.159 basically a preview of what they did in TNA. 3817 03:36:07.239 --> 03:36:07.399 You know. 3818 03:36:07.440 --> 03:36:10.319 It's the Hogan Bischoff's team trying to get the band 3819 03:36:10.360 --> 03:36:12.479 back together or trying to, you know, see. 3820 03:36:12.319 --> 03:36:13.520 If they can try to do as much as they 3821 03:36:13.559 --> 03:36:16.000 can to make Hogan be the guy to bring WW 3822 03:36:16.159 --> 03:36:16.600 back to glory. 3823 03:36:16.639 --> 03:36:18.639 Exactly correct, precisely, so you got all. 3824 03:36:18.879 --> 03:36:20.280 That's the funny part. It's like, it's not about bring 3825 03:36:20.399 --> 03:36:22.399 WW back to glory. He's about having Hulk Hogan bring 3826 03:36:22.559 --> 03:36:23.520 WCW back to glory. 3827 03:36:24.120 --> 03:36:26.680 Always said there's no such thing as WCW being successful 3828 03:36:26.719 --> 03:36:30.079 unless Hulk Hogan is successful. Right, Unless Hulk Hogan as 3829 03:36:30.120 --> 03:36:32.799 the main eventor is what's working in WCW. Nothing is 3830 03:36:32.840 --> 03:36:36.840 working in WSW because you know, nothing counts until the Hulkster, 3831 03:36:36.959 --> 03:36:39.239 with his contract and leverage and all the rest and 3832 03:36:39.399 --> 03:36:43.559 his iron grip on Bischoff is in play. When Holgan's 3833 03:36:43.559 --> 03:36:46.479 in play, then everyone's trying because this is our only shot. 3834 03:36:46.879 --> 03:36:49.040 If somebody else is on top, it's very temporary until 3835 03:36:49.040 --> 03:36:51.680 the Holster comes back. So here he is with his 3836 03:36:51.760 --> 03:36:55.680 white gloves versus sit on Nitro. Hogan close lines him 3837 03:36:55.680 --> 03:36:58.479 several times. Sid won't go down. He scoops in Hogan's 3838 03:36:58.559 --> 03:37:01.799 need gives on a two count. They referenced how doctor 3839 03:37:01.840 --> 03:37:04.159 James Andrews had just performed the surgery on the Hulkster. 3840 03:37:04.799 --> 03:37:07.040 They did, they did talk about that fucking Scott Hudson 3841 03:37:07.120 --> 03:37:07.840 talking about that shit. 3842 03:37:08.280 --> 03:37:11.680 And here's a little bit of a context from from 3843 03:37:11.760 --> 03:37:14.440 Dave Meltzer. At the time, with the main booking power 3844 03:37:14.479 --> 03:37:16.559 and television formatting in the hands of Hult, Cogan and 3845 03:37:16.719 --> 03:37:20.319 Eric Bischoff, Kevin Nationally having a minor role. Nitro on 3846 03:37:20.399 --> 03:37:23.239 July nineteenth presented an Angle Aiden show with two Marque 3847 03:37:23.319 --> 03:37:25.760 main events and introducing a slew of new characters. New 3848 03:37:25.760 --> 03:37:28.399 announcer and celebrity cameo appearances in front of an incredibly 3849 03:37:28.440 --> 03:37:31.159 rabid crowd in Rockford, Illinois. While it was generally considered 3850 03:37:31.159 --> 03:37:33.079 the best Nitro in a long time, the ratings told 3851 03:37:33.760 --> 03:37:37.639 a different story a rather ordinary episode of WWF Sports Entertainment. 3852 03:37:37.680 --> 03:37:40.639 As the show is now categorized Joy six point two 3853 03:37:40.680 --> 03:37:42.879 eight rating, six point oh five first hour, six point 3854 03:37:42.920 --> 03:37:45.520 five to five second hour, and a whopping ten share. 3855 03:37:46.399 --> 03:37:48.799 Nitro compared to the six point two to eight. Boss 3856 03:37:49.079 --> 03:37:52.040 did a three point three to three Wow two point 3857 03:37:52.040 --> 03:37:54.239 five to seven first hour, three point one one, second hour, 3858 03:37:54.319 --> 03:37:55.959 three point three one third hour, and a five to 3859 03:37:56.079 --> 03:37:58.639 five share. That's that's excellent for Nitro at the time. 3860 03:37:59.159 --> 03:38:01.000 Over the head ted two hours and eight minutes, Ro's 3861 03:38:01.040 --> 03:38:03.200 six point two eight compared to Nitro's three point twenty 3862 03:38:03.200 --> 03:38:05.639 one or just shy of doubling the rating head to head, 3863 03:38:06.440 --> 03:38:08.719 Rod doubled Nitro in four of the eight quarters head 3864 03:38:08.760 --> 03:38:11.319 to head, including devastating Nitro in the Battle of main 3865 03:38:11.399 --> 03:38:14.200 Events overrun. The disappointment for Nitro had to be the 3866 03:38:14.239 --> 03:38:16.799 performance of the two marquee matches, the Hogan versus Vicious 3867 03:38:16.840 --> 03:38:19.920 title match. Remember Sid's a draw. Remember this course, the 3868 03:38:20.000 --> 03:38:21.799 Hogan Versu Visius title match to a two point nine 3869 03:38:21.840 --> 03:38:23.639 one final quarter, growing to a three point five to 3870 03:38:23.680 --> 03:38:26.120 one overrun with other run ins including Goldberg, But even 3871 03:38:26.159 --> 03:38:29.040 that is misleading high, misleadingly high, since it went longer 3872 03:38:29.120 --> 03:38:32.200 than raw ro's final quarter. X pac and Caine versus 3873 03:38:32.200 --> 03:38:34.799 Big Show and Hardcore Holly and the beginning of Undertaker 3874 03:38:34.879 --> 03:38:39.120 versus Triple h In comparison, Okay, Hogan versus Sid Boss 3875 03:38:39.559 --> 03:38:41.600 does a two point nine to one. What do you 3876 03:38:41.680 --> 03:38:44.600 think X POC and Caine versus Big Show and Holly 3877 03:38:44.719 --> 03:38:47.879 does none better be like four six point nine to six? 3878 03:38:48.600 --> 03:38:51.360 Are you fucking kidding me? With the Undertaker Triple Ah 3879 03:38:51.440 --> 03:38:54.159 match two just starting and the overrun with the finish 3880 03:38:54.239 --> 03:38:56.000 of that match in Austin running in built throughout the 3881 03:38:56.000 --> 03:38:59.639 show did a seven point seven zero rating. Geez, that's 3882 03:38:59.639 --> 03:39:03.079 a totally opposed making it the most watched wrestling match 3883 03:39:03.120 --> 03:39:06.360 with opposition wrestling programming in the history of cable television. 3884 03:39:06.600 --> 03:39:11.239 Yeah that huge, um Shane, uh Shane. The Greenwich Kids 3885 03:39:11.360 --> 03:39:14.440 what do they call mestree posse? Yeah, versus Briscoe and 3886 03:39:14.479 --> 03:39:16.799 Patterson in that May nineteen ninety nine Raw that did 3887 03:39:16.840 --> 03:39:20.399 that all time high quarter like, rivaled only by the 3888 03:39:20.479 --> 03:39:22.120 rock mankind. This is Your Life. That was on an 3889 03:39:22.120 --> 03:39:24.399 episode of Raw where Nitro was preempted, so they had 3890 03:39:24.440 --> 03:39:25.879 the night all of themselves, and that had a lot 3891 03:39:25.920 --> 03:39:26.559 to do with why that was. 3892 03:39:28.319 --> 03:39:29.879 This one was a post what about what about this? 3893 03:39:30.079 --> 03:39:33.000 What about the Undertaker Austin match? I thought that one 3894 03:39:33.040 --> 03:39:35.719 did a fucking did a huge right dorating huge reading. Yep, 3895 03:39:35.760 --> 03:39:37.959 it was way up there, but it wasn't. It wasn't 3896 03:39:37.959 --> 03:39:40.840 as high as that. Briscol and Patterson won for some reason. 3897 03:39:42.040 --> 03:39:44.159 Nitro's other marque match, the Brick flairvor Sting match for 3898 03:39:44.200 --> 03:39:47.200 control of the company, was a huge disappointment, drawing just 3899 03:39:47.239 --> 03:39:48.840 a three point three to five rating for the first 3900 03:39:48.879 --> 03:39:51.479 opposed quarter as compared to the five point three to 3901 03:39:51.559 --> 03:39:54.280 three for the same Raw open as every week. Unlike 3902 03:39:54.280 --> 03:39:57.159 the previous week Flare Malank versus Malenka, where Flair maintained 3903 03:39:57.159 --> 03:39:59.520 the audience from the unpposed quarter, the Flair Sting match 3904 03:39:59.559 --> 03:40:02.280 had the usual turn off factor when rob began falling 3905 03:40:02.440 --> 03:40:05.520 from a four point zero seven unpposed rating ros numbers. 3906 03:40:05.680 --> 03:40:08.239 Remember that Nitro had an extra hour than Raw eight 3907 03:40:08.280 --> 03:40:10.399 to nine right and I think that was a lot 3908 03:40:10.440 --> 03:40:12.760 of it too, was that, like people watched Nitro for 3909 03:40:12.799 --> 03:40:15.040 the first hour when Raw wasn't on and almost always 3910 03:40:15.079 --> 03:40:17.079 tied out. They just it's kind of funny.

There we go. 4048 03:46:14.280 --> 03:46:21.440 My opinion about the mystery Man, or so called franchise 4049 03:46:21.680 --> 03:46:22.399 of what. 4050 03:46:23.959 --> 03:46:25.879 I don't know. What's he talking about? Mystery Man? 4051 03:46:26.840 --> 03:46:31.680 I think he's talking about Goldberg. We're talking about sing 4052 03:46:31.799 --> 03:46:35.920 Sorry you start about the sting. Why because he wrestles 4053 03:46:35.959 --> 03:46:37.840 in it roadwild?

At first, I was like, 4056 03:46:42.719 --> 03:46:45.120 I guess Goldberg had some mystery to him. But yeah, 4057 03:46:45.159 --> 03:46:47.920 he's I guess back from ninety seven ninety six. Rather 4058 03:46:48.639 --> 03:46:50.000 you know how he hung over in the rafters and 4059 03:46:50.000 --> 03:46:53.799 didn't say anything for a year, okay or maybe WCW. 4060 03:46:55.399 --> 03:46:58.440 We know this a true thing about him. We know 4061 03:46:58.520 --> 03:47:02.159 he's a family man. You have his children. 4062 03:47:03.559 --> 03:47:09.399 He those family values. He loves the shaking hands of 4063 03:47:09.479 --> 03:47:13.479 the wrestling fans. I despise those qualities. 4064 03:47:15.680 --> 03:47:20.959 That's good. Self proclaimed millennium man, we're transitioning into that. 4065 03:47:21.079 --> 03:47:22.799 Tony says he has a claim on that because as 4066 03:47:22.840 --> 03:47:24.520 we head into the year two thousand, said has had 4067 03:47:24.520 --> 03:47:27.159 the best record, undefeated over the last month.

I don't know he 4097 03:48:51.360 --> 03:48:55.000 was there, so they here's the here's the insert moment. 4098 03:48:55.799 --> 03:49:01.680 Sting road wild was glood out so far might come 4099 03:49:01.799 --> 03:49:05.000 back in w c W because one will probably stand 4100 03:49:05.120 --> 03:49:06.319 out for a long time. 4101 03:49:09.440 --> 03:49:11.120 A lot of people don't realize. 4102 03:49:10.799 --> 03:49:14.479 What I achieved in that one win and one fittor 4103 03:49:14.559 --> 03:49:18.600 you overstend I said earlier. He truly is the franchise 4104 03:49:18.680 --> 03:49:22.479 of w c W. He stood all the tests here, 4105 03:49:23.000 --> 03:49:26.920 he went through good and bad times, things like that. 4106 03:49:27.840 --> 03:49:31.440 And what really bothers me is that no one really 4107 03:49:31.520 --> 03:49:37.479 did understand or know what I accomplished in that one 4108 03:49:37.639 --> 03:49:40.319 night because it happened so swift. 4109 03:49:40.719 --> 03:49:42.479 Yeah I don't either. It beats things. 4110 03:49:42.639 --> 03:49:43.719 Are you talking about. 4111 03:49:45.239 --> 03:49:53.040 So suddenly that my power overshadowed the event. 4112 03:49:54.760 --> 03:49:59.479 And it's really sad because the guy beat was when 4113 03:49:59.520 --> 03:50:02.360 I one of the steal one of the greatest competitors 4114 03:50:02.399 --> 03:50:03.200 are our sport. 4115 03:50:04.520 --> 03:50:08.959 With my presence, Some things like that are overshadowed. 4116 03:50:10.239 --> 03:50:15.399 Okay, what do you want? You pin Sting and you 4117 03:50:15.520 --> 03:50:18.280 beat Sting? We you know everyone saw it, but you 4118 03:50:18.319 --> 03:50:21.399 apparently no one noticed it because you're you. 4119 03:50:21.760 --> 03:50:22.639 What are you talking about? 4120 03:50:22.840 --> 03:50:22.879 Like? 4121 03:50:23.239 --> 03:50:23.760 I noticed? 4122 03:50:23.760 --> 03:50:25.079 Still fucking sense whatsoever? 4123 03:50:25.360 --> 03:50:26.559 I noticed it. I watched the show. 4124 03:50:26.639 --> 03:50:27.079 What do you want? 4125 03:50:27.879 --> 03:50:28.040 I know? 4126 03:50:28.239 --> 03:50:30.879 I watched the I watched the fucking three minute clip 4127 03:50:31.000 --> 03:50:33.399 version in your fucking video cassette. Do you expect to 4128 03:50:33.399 --> 03:50:36.200 happen when you beat Sting? That didn't happen? People to 4129 03:50:36.239 --> 03:50:38.600 give a ship? No, I guess Dave Meltzer wasn't talking 4130 03:50:38.600 --> 03:50:40.120 about how fucking Sid beat Sting. 4131 03:50:40.239 --> 03:50:44.559 He doesn't read this the sheets anyway. Is a nice 4132 03:50:44.559 --> 03:50:48.280 finish though, after Superblex, after which Sid just gets up 4133 03:50:48.280 --> 03:50:50.280 as if nothing touched him and stands in the corner 4134 03:50:50.360 --> 03:50:53.760 to take the splash. Sting goes up airborne for the 4135 03:50:53.799 --> 03:50:56.040 stinger splash in the corner and said goozles them out 4136 03:50:56.040 --> 03:50:57.719 of mid air and choke slams. 4137 03:50:57.719 --> 03:51:00.520 Does He hits two stinger splashes and the third one 4138 03:51:01.360 --> 03:51:03.959 Sid catches him, choke slam, gets the pennant's a really 4139 03:51:03.959 --> 03:51:04.680 good finish. 4140 03:51:04.559 --> 03:51:07.479 Just powers through. And I think I bet Sid kind 4141 03:51:07.479 --> 03:51:09.399 of saw that laid out that way and thought it 4142 03:51:09.479 --> 03:51:11.719 was such a strong win over a strong face in 4143 03:51:11.840 --> 03:51:14.520 Sting that it would be considered impactful and people would 4144 03:51:14.520 --> 03:51:16.920 want to see him headline. And he probably didn't get 4145 03:51:16.959 --> 03:51:20.879 the feedback loop he was expecting from from probably negotiating 4146 03:51:21.440 --> 03:51:23.600 a very decisive win hero for the Sting or probably 4147 03:51:23.680 --> 03:51:25.360 told himself this would be a big launch thing if 4148 03:51:25.360 --> 03:51:27.799 he could collect Stings scalp. But at the time Sting 4149 03:51:28.000 --> 03:51:31.319 was making everybody a nut, you know, really try anything 4150 03:51:31.360 --> 03:51:31.799 for him. 4151 03:51:33.200 --> 03:51:35.159 A punching bag. Back then, I can't even think of 4152 03:51:35.280 --> 03:51:37.840 ninety nine Sting as being anything interesting. I really know. 4153 03:51:37.959 --> 03:51:42.479 He had that absolutely fantastic match with DDP on Nitro. 4154 03:51:42.719 --> 03:51:46.280 I think it was April or May timeframe. It's one 4155 03:51:46.319 --> 03:51:49.239 of the best matches ever on Monday night. But that 4156 03:51:49.399 --> 03:51:50.799 was the thing. He would just go out there and 4157 03:51:50.959 --> 03:51:53.879 just perform and have good matches. But he didn't have 4158 03:51:54.120 --> 03:51:56.479 a structured push. He wasn't like the guy. He didn't 4159 03:51:56.479 --> 03:51:58.639 have a belt, he didn't have a lot of promo time. 4160 03:51:58.680 --> 03:51:59.920 He was just out there as a guy that people 4161 03:51:59.920 --> 03:52:02.040 cared about that could you know, carry a segment. 4162 03:52:02.799 --> 03:52:04.399 I mean, doesn't he turn a heel on Hogan and 4163 03:52:04.440 --> 03:52:06.280 foll forget it? 4164 03:52:06.319 --> 03:52:09.760 After that, that's all a joke, and it's all a joke. 4165 03:52:11.040 --> 03:52:13.079 And after getting this huge victory like it was nothing 4166 03:52:13.239 --> 03:52:15.040 at road Wild, Sid hits the floor right away and 4167 03:52:15.159 --> 03:52:17.760 just walks around one more in the record books. 4168 03:52:19.840 --> 03:52:22.239 I mean, it's your own fault. Actually, then you know 4169 03:52:22.280 --> 03:52:23.680 you're not making a big deal out of it. You're 4170 03:52:23.680 --> 03:52:25.000 just fucking acting like nothing happened. 4171 03:52:25.040 --> 03:52:27.600 After the studio, Sid's talking about what he loves doing. 4172 03:52:28.760 --> 03:52:31.120 I love running in, beating up people, what. 4173 03:52:31.680 --> 03:52:34.200 I love running in. Well, you're in the right company. 4174 03:52:34.959 --> 03:52:38.879 Yeah, well two, those are the fun things. Those are 4175 03:52:38.920 --> 03:52:42.159 the things that set up mental intimidation factors. And people 4176 03:52:42.239 --> 03:52:46.799 like Cogan's mind Stein Goldberg List goes on Brett Hart. 4177 03:52:48.239 --> 03:52:50.520 They come out here that feel a comic cool. They 4178 03:52:50.559 --> 03:52:53.040 actect those things don't bother them. It didn't affect them. 4179 03:52:54.399 --> 03:52:57.280 Let me tell you something. The day that I walked 4180 03:52:57.319 --> 03:53:01.319 into the door at WCW, those names I just mentioned, 4181 03:53:03.520 --> 03:53:09.360 they felt the threat, the possibility. 4182 03:53:10.120 --> 03:53:12.280 That they may fail. 4183 03:53:13.440 --> 03:53:18.360 Okay, all right, that they felt fail threat, the threat 4184 03:53:19.200 --> 03:53:20.879 the possibility that they may fail. 4185 03:53:20.760 --> 03:53:25.159 Fail yeah, or fail, as he says, I understand that's 4186 03:53:25.200 --> 03:53:30.479 not a yes, they may fail. Well, much can be 4187 03:53:30.479 --> 03:53:33.520 said about World Championship press threat. How about the August 4188 03:53:33.520 --> 03:53:35.479 sixteenth nightro in ninety nine where Sid hits the ring 4189 03:53:35.520 --> 03:53:39.079 on hoovent Tude Guerrera versus Lash LaRue and kills fuckers 4190 03:53:39.079 --> 03:53:39.879 with power bombs. 4191 03:53:40.719 --> 03:53:41.239 Yeah, I'm good. 4192 03:53:41.520 --> 03:53:43.280 And the name two thousand, the name said vicious will 4193 03:53:43.280 --> 03:53:45.520 be heard the loudest, he says.

I'd rather just let that go away, just let. 4248 03:56:59.639 --> 03:57:03.520 That's it the future creative control. Once Russeau got his 4249 03:57:03.600 --> 03:57:05.920 hands on My Life and Sid comes out, he says, 4250 03:57:05.920 --> 03:57:07.920 I'm the next w W heavyweight Champion in the world. 4251 03:57:09.079 --> 03:57:11.680 Tony says he's has fifty five wins with no blemishes. 4252 03:57:11.760 --> 03:57:14.280 Is the Red and Yellow Hogan is suddenly on our 4253 03:57:14.319 --> 03:57:17.360 screens with the w W Big Old World title belt 4254 03:57:17.399 --> 03:57:20.319 on his waist and a bandana. Slides into the ring 4255 03:57:20.360 --> 03:57:22.360 and gets stomped by Sid. As soon as he gets 4256 03:57:22.399 --> 03:57:23.760 in with Tony talked about the fansom. 4257 03:57:23.799 --> 03:57:25.399 Now this is the WrestleMania rematch. 4258 03:57:25.600 --> 03:57:27.879 Yeah, they start the same exact way, all. 4259 03:57:27.840 --> 03:57:30.200 Right, like we're not you know, it's not the other one. 4260 03:57:30.280 --> 03:57:33.840 That's that's not a that wasn't it.

I think about what they managed 4270 03:57:55.360 --> 03:57:57.760 to achieve there with these two and now look at this, 4271 03:57:58.479 --> 03:57:59.920 this is only seven years later. 4272 03:58:00.000 --> 03:58:02.719 I'll tell you. That's the thing, you know, that's part 4273 03:58:02.799 --> 03:58:08.360 of the that's part of what is not talked about. Yes, 4274 03:58:09.000 --> 03:58:14.120 during the glory period of the Attitude era, people don't 4275 03:58:14.200 --> 03:58:20.200 talk about the fact that things you're they were so 4276 03:58:20.520 --> 03:58:26.000 desperate to one up each other that they didn't think 4277 03:58:28.360 --> 03:58:30.440 building to the next show. It was about building to 4278 03:58:30.479 --> 03:58:34.239 the next moment tonight very much, and and that. 4279 03:58:36.600 --> 03:58:40.200 And seeing Hogan versait is nitro matches instead of paper 4280 03:58:40.280 --> 03:58:43.799 virdliners right, crazy. 4281 03:58:44.639 --> 03:58:47.319 It's it's it's a complete waste. I just would never. 4282 03:58:47.280 --> 03:58:50.760 Imagine, considering the place in my heart that this match 4283 03:58:50.840 --> 03:58:53.959 held from WRESTLEMANIAID, that I would be this indifferent to 4284 03:58:54.040 --> 03:58:55.760 it once they finally got around to rematching in the 4285 03:58:55.799 --> 03:59:00.239 same company here, I am Logan get stop as soon 4286 03:59:00.280 --> 03:59:01.920 as he gets in, and Tony talking about the fan 4287 03:59:02.000 --> 03:59:04.440 support being firmly on Hogan's side, which they, let me 4288 03:59:04.479 --> 03:59:07.040 tell you, they were rejoicing that for a split second there. 4289 03:59:07.360 --> 03:59:09.479 The WCW crowd went for the Hogan red and yellow 4290 03:59:09.520 --> 03:59:13.319 nostalgia act because they had it right. They had soured 4291 03:59:13.360 --> 03:59:16.239 on the Hollywood Hogan thing for sure. Hogan with a 4292 03:59:16.239 --> 03:59:18.479 black knee brace behind the red knee pad and yeah, 4293 03:59:18.520 --> 03:59:20.799 I noticed that too. Sid slams, Hogan drops the leg 4294 03:59:20.920 --> 03:59:24.200 this time drops it and then Hogan, yes, pops up right. 4295 03:59:24.920 --> 03:59:29.239 But by the way, Shavani calls Sid the Man of 4296 03:59:29.280 --> 03:59:33.360 the Millennium. Is that better or worse than millennium man? 4297 03:59:33.360 --> 03:59:34.040 I think that's worse. 4298 03:59:35.280 --> 03:59:38.200 Yeah, I think so too. The Man of the Millennium 4299 03:59:38.719 --> 03:59:39.639 sounds so stupid. 4300 03:59:40.200 --> 03:59:41.879 It really, it really does.

Hogan 4327 04:00:57.159 --> 04:01:00.680 goes into a table shouting spots to each other, goosele 4328 04:01:00.760 --> 04:01:02.680 and choke slamb Hogan takes the bump, but he doesn't 4329 04:01:02.680 --> 04:01:03.920 cover him. Sid does not cover him. 4330 04:01:03.920 --> 04:01:06.000 He says, I don't know what the fuck that's all about. 4331 04:01:06.000 --> 04:01:08.559 It He says, no, we'll do it, and then he 4332 04:01:08.639 --> 04:01:09.840 covers him after a break. 4333 04:01:10.200 --> 04:01:15.360 He does. I understand, and then understand why he didn't, why. 4334 04:01:15.319 --> 04:01:17.159 He has I don't know what he's waiting for, but 4335 04:01:17.200 --> 04:01:19.079 what he goes for it hold kicks out, holds up big. 4336 04:01:19.000 --> 04:01:22.799 Boot leg and and uh, look at this.

Rick Steiner plays Papa Shango 4341 04:01:30.440 --> 04:01:33.360 but actually makes it on time so Cid isn't forced 4342 04:01:33.360 --> 04:01:35.120 to kick out of the leg drops. It's Rick Steiner, 4343 04:01:35.239 --> 04:01:38.120 I mean what it is Rick Steiner? And then Sting 4344 04:01:38.200 --> 04:01:39.120 plays Ultimate Warrior. 4345 04:01:40.360 --> 04:01:41.280 Yeah he does you're right. 4346 04:01:41.360 --> 04:01:43.520 Thing comes in, comes in to save the day. He 4347 04:01:43.559 --> 04:01:45.840 plays ultimate warrior. The ring is filled with. 4348 04:01:45.920 --> 04:01:48.479 Guard right, you can tell where Hogan. Hogan doesn't have 4349 04:01:48.559 --> 04:01:50.719 a very deep well, ladies and gentlemen, No, he does 4350 04:01:50.799 --> 04:01:51.719 not have two ideas. 4351 04:01:52.200 --> 04:01:56.000 This is wrestleming. He ate all over again, except for 4352 04:01:56.159 --> 04:01:59.680 this finish Abso, okay, are you ready for this ship. 4353 04:01:59.559 --> 04:02:02.440 He's gonna have Stink turn on him like fucking uh right, 4354 04:02:02.559 --> 04:02:03.719 the Abyss and everybody else. 4355 04:02:04.479 --> 04:02:07.559 But so they cut They kind of cut away pretty 4356 04:02:07.600 --> 04:02:11.319 quickly because it's not about Hogan Steiner staying or whatever. 4357 04:02:11.319 --> 04:02:18.719 It's about Sid. So Hogan boots Steiner and he drops 4358 04:02:18.799 --> 04:02:23.600 the leg and I went because I knew what was 4359 04:02:23.639 --> 04:02:26.000 going to happen. Not that I had ever seen this before, 4360 04:02:26.760 --> 04:02:28.520 but I knew what was going to happen, I mean, 4361 04:02:28.920 --> 04:02:36.280 And so I found the match and Hogan covers rick Steiner. 4362 04:02:36.559 --> 04:02:38.239 They don't show that on the Millennium Man tape. 4363 04:02:39.319 --> 04:02:42.079 They do not. They they faded black before it happens. 4364 04:02:42.120 --> 04:02:44.559 He has to get the one two three on rick Steiner. 4365 04:02:44.520 --> 04:02:47.840 And he has Charles Robinson register the bogus three count. 4366 04:02:48.040 --> 04:02:49.639 Rick Steiner wasn't in the match. It was a one 4367 04:02:49.680 --> 04:02:50.239 on one match. 4368 04:02:50.440 --> 04:02:53.239 He wasn't in the match. It was sid In Hogan. 4369 04:02:53.079 --> 04:02:55.680 Because our whole thing about Hogan being obsessed with the 4370 04:02:55.760 --> 04:03:00.559 visual pinfall is just a figment of our imagination, right. 4371 04:03:00.920 --> 04:03:05.159 Right, Like you know, because what what what sane individual 4372 04:03:08.440 --> 04:03:10.440 thinks that this is a good. 4373 04:03:10.319 --> 04:03:13.239 Thing covers anybody he can to register as many victories 4374 04:03:13.280 --> 04:03:16.680 as he can, as many visual bouts of superiority. 4375 04:03:18.079 --> 04:03:19.879 I mean, it is without it, it is one of 4376 04:03:19.920 --> 04:03:26.040 the more ludicrous moments ever ever. 4377 04:03:26.440 --> 04:03:28.319 And it's also worth noting the ring is filling up 4378 04:03:28.399 --> 04:03:30.319 and completely with garbage, you know, cups and. 4379 04:03:30.440 --> 04:03:33.879 Completely with I mean we're talking nWo like I'm gonna 4380 04:03:33.920 --> 04:03:36.360 tell you, I am gonna bash of the beach ninety 4381 04:03:36.399 --> 04:03:36.959 six garbage. 4382 04:03:36.959 --> 04:03:38.600 I want to say right here that that had to 4383 04:03:38.680 --> 04:03:42.879 be mostly manufactured, because there's no reason that people were. 4384 04:03:43.680 --> 04:03:46.760 That he didn't. The only reason I think they'd be 4385 04:03:46.840 --> 04:03:50.079 upset is because, like we get another fucking bogus fantasy. 4386 04:03:50.159 --> 04:03:51.879 See that, I do see that, But if I also 4387 04:03:51.959 --> 04:03:54.840 see the way bishofs gears turn in a place of desperation, 4388 04:03:55.079 --> 04:03:57.959 He's trying to recreate the atmosphere that he knows was money. 4389 04:03:58.559 --> 04:04:01.000 So let's get I would put it past them to 4390 04:04:01.120 --> 04:04:04.719 engineer some you know, certain people in the crowd starting 4391 04:04:05.120 --> 04:04:07.239 the trend of throwing the drinks, then everybody. 4392 04:04:06.879 --> 04:04:07.639 Else follows suit. 4393 04:04:07.840 --> 04:04:09.920 Because this this seemed very inorganic to me. 4394 04:04:11.120 --> 04:04:13.280 But what do I know now, maybe it will. You're 4395 04:04:13.280 --> 04:04:16.120 probably right this from the I mean, it did surprise me, 4396 04:04:16.239 --> 04:04:18.719 like I'm not. I was actually thinking to myself, this 4397 04:04:18.799 --> 04:04:20.959 seems like a little bit of a low key matchup, 4398 04:04:21.559 --> 04:04:25.520 a low key moment to fucking exactly started throwing shit 4399 04:04:25.600 --> 04:04:26.040 in there. 4400 04:04:26.479 --> 04:04:28.840 From the observer. At the time, paced by a series 4401 04:04:28.840 --> 04:04:31.319 of number one contenders matches that drew huge quarter hours, 4402 04:04:31.440 --> 04:04:33.520 RAW was back up to a six point six to 4403 04:04:33.600 --> 04:04:35.799 two ratings six point three eight first hour, six point 4404 04:04:35.799 --> 04:04:37.920 eight three second hour, and a ten point six share 4405 04:04:38.000 --> 04:04:40.520 on August sixteenth. This is the August sixteenth Nitro we're 4406 04:04:40.520 --> 04:04:43.239 talking about here. In nineteen ninety nine, Nitro, which was 4407 04:04:43.360 --> 04:04:45.440 doubled in six of the eight had to head Quarters 4408 04:04:46.079 --> 04:04:48.040 finished with a three point two eight rating three point 4409 04:04:48.120 --> 04:04:50.280 seven eight first hour two point eight nine, second hour 4410 04:04:50.360 --> 04:04:52.440 three point one eight, third hour at a five point 4411 04:04:52.479 --> 04:04:54.120 four share Over the head to had two hours and 4412 04:04:54.159 --> 04:04:56.959 six minutes, Raw did a six point five eight rating 4413 04:04:57.159 --> 04:05:01.280 to Nitro's three point oh four WWF to were a 4414 04:05:01.360 --> 04:05:04.440 monstrous seven point twenty seven quarter which featured both the 4415 04:05:04.520 --> 04:05:07.120 China Verse Triple H match along with the Jericho confrontation 4416 04:05:07.200 --> 04:05:09.920 of Undertaker and Big Show. The Mankind Versus China match 4417 04:05:10.000 --> 04:05:13.000 tore a seven point one zero rating, while the Mankind 4418 04:05:13.079 --> 04:05:14.719 vers Triple H match dre a six point one to 4419 04:05:14.719 --> 04:05:17.360 three final quarter and the overrun, which went unopposed in 4420 04:05:17.399 --> 04:05:19.479 the final three minutes, grew to a seven point one 4421 04:05:19.520 --> 04:05:21.239 to three. There was very little in the way of 4422 04:05:21.280 --> 04:05:24.239 good news for Nitro other than a relatively strong showing 4423 04:05:24.440 --> 04:05:26.440 of the Hulk cog and versus Sid Vicious main event 4424 04:05:26.840 --> 04:05:29.440 promoted heavily throughout the show, which did a three point 4425 04:05:29.479 --> 04:05:32.520 sixty four final quarter and a four point two six overrun. 4426 04:05:32.879 --> 04:05:35.479 So that is boss a three point six y four 4427 04:05:35.600 --> 04:05:40.040 for hul Coke and Versus SID to a seven points 4428 04:05:40.319 --> 04:05:44.920 two seven for China Verse Triple H and the rest 4429 04:05:45.000 --> 04:05:47.799 and then China Mankind seven point one zero. Just a 4430 04:05:48.040 --> 04:05:51.079 huge gap. I mean, I do remember them building that well, 4431 04:05:51.280 --> 04:05:53.559 and nobody's talking about they did the same with the 4432 04:05:53.600 --> 04:05:56.040 first match when he was in Hollywood Colors. They did 4433 04:05:56.079 --> 04:05:58.000 a really good job of like in the Macho Man 4434 04:05:58.040 --> 04:05:59.680 match I mentioned we're holding up the belt back of 4435 04:06:00.079 --> 04:06:02.879 you know, teasing it and segue making you want to 4436 04:06:02.920 --> 04:06:06.000 stay tuned for the main event. Now, the finish they 4437 04:06:06.040 --> 04:06:08.000 delivered in the sid match was not something that make 4438 04:06:08.079 --> 04:06:09.600 you want to come along for the ride next. 4439 04:06:09.479 --> 04:06:12.479 Time, not at all. No, I'd I'd definitely quit. 4440 04:06:12.440 --> 04:06:14.760 Alto wroute the two quarters that Rod didn't double Nitro 4441 04:06:14.959 --> 04:06:17.159 or the second quarter where Road Dog versus Al Snow 4442 04:06:17.200 --> 04:06:19.360 and the beginning of an Undertaker show. Jericho's segment went 4443 04:06:19.399 --> 04:06:22.239 against Diamond Dallas Page versus Kidman, which was a five 4444 04:06:22.319 --> 04:06:24.600 point seven to three point two margin, and the final 4445 04:06:24.680 --> 04:06:27.079 quarter the biggest gap was the China Vers Triple h 4446 04:06:27.200 --> 04:06:29.639 quarter going against Ben Wavers Disco, which was the best 4447 04:06:29.680 --> 04:06:32.040 actual wrestling match of either show, but true the lowest 4448 04:06:32.120 --> 04:06:34.200 quarter of the night at two point four to two. 4449 04:06:35.239 --> 04:06:51.200 The lap Fan Wrestling Podcast the wrestling podcast that knows 4450 04:06:51.280 --> 04:07:00.120 the boys need their candy.

So that's they're trying to do. 4633 04:17:51.719 --> 04:17:54.600 They're trying to get sid past the point that Goldberg 4634 04:17:54.840 --> 04:17:56.639 was at a similar juncture. 4635 04:17:57.280 --> 04:18:01.280 So and again, what they needed to do, they really 4636 04:18:01.360 --> 04:18:04.879 needed to have to make that the whole thing work 4637 04:18:05.040 --> 04:18:09.920 and make him seem like an obnoxious tool is to 4638 04:18:10.040 --> 04:18:13.200 have the commentators can always say no, this is not 4639 04:18:13.239 --> 04:18:13.639 act right. 4640 04:18:13.680 --> 04:18:16.920 Worst they really didn't do until right the backlash was 4641 04:18:16.959 --> 04:18:18.520 such that they kind of like not leaned into it, 4642 04:18:18.639 --> 04:18:21.239 but they were really just thinking that they could just 4643 04:18:21.360 --> 04:18:23.440 manufacture enough of a wind streak to get people to 4644 04:18:23.440 --> 04:18:25.920 want to see Russell Goldberg, which I'm not saying it 4645 04:18:25.959 --> 04:18:26.559 didn't work, but. 4646 04:18:27.399 --> 04:18:29.200 I mean I think people want to see again on 4647 04:18:29.399 --> 04:18:32.719 paper Goldberg Sid is a money match, Like I'd want 4648 04:18:32.760 --> 04:18:35.479 to see that in a pay per view agreed, no question, 4649 04:18:35.799 --> 04:18:37.399 Like you don't have to do that. I think this 4650 04:18:37.760 --> 04:18:40.280 would just be flavor for it. 4651 04:18:40.399 --> 04:18:42.360 You know what would have sold the match ten times 4652 04:18:42.399 --> 04:18:44.520 bigger is if you didn't see Sid until the pay 4653 04:18:44.559 --> 04:18:47.479 per view. You announced it like two months out and 4654 04:18:47.559 --> 04:18:49.760 he maybe he said some things, but like you didn't 4655 04:18:49.760 --> 04:18:53.079 see him do anything to anybody until the great Sid 4656 04:18:53.479 --> 04:18:55.840 came into WCW, the Russell Goldberg. I think that's where 4657 04:18:55.879 --> 04:18:57.959 the money is is to see Sid. 4658 04:18:58.120 --> 04:19:00.479 I mean that's for sure. If you're going to do 4659 04:19:00.520 --> 04:19:04.559 a straight match, absolutely, But if you're gonna do this, this, this, 4660 04:19:08.280 --> 04:19:11.479 you know street gimmick, it's fun to have him do 4661 04:19:11.639 --> 04:19:14.639 it week to week and kind of do this stuff. 4662 04:19:15.120 --> 04:19:17.079 I just don't think in a weird way I would 4663 04:19:17.079 --> 04:19:19.639 I wouldn't have him wrestle on pay per view against 4664 04:19:19.680 --> 04:19:23.639 like I wouldn't have him do a Crispin wa match. No, Like, 4665 04:19:23.719 --> 04:19:25.399 I don't think you should have had a legitimate match 4666 04:19:25.479 --> 04:19:29.280 on pay per view if that's what you're building towards 4667 04:19:29.440 --> 04:19:34.079 it's gonna be kind of squash mask squash mask squash match, 4668 04:19:34.120 --> 04:19:38.079 and then all these other fucking you know, these these 4669 04:19:38.120 --> 04:19:42.120 other you know, backstage segments, right and and in and 4670 04:19:42.239 --> 04:19:44.600 run ins and stuff, and just like in him saying, 4671 04:19:44.680 --> 04:19:45.559 there's another one. 4672 04:19:47.479 --> 04:19:49.159 Yeah, you know, they don't have you have to do 4673 04:19:49.239 --> 04:19:50.920 if you want to do that, I'm arguing to not 4674 04:19:51.000 --> 04:19:52.799 even do the winning street thing.
