now it's time to talk about WBF Monday Night. We're
all Stember third, two thousand and one.
Speaker 1: All right, let's get into Monday Night Raw September third,
two thousand and one. Let's let's do that, James.
Speaker 2: Of course, this raw is the episode where kurd Angle
kidnaps him ducks, the WWF champion, the leader of the Alliance,
Stone Cold, Steve Austin, which is I didn't know this
even happened. Do you remember this?
Speaker 1: This is one of the more memorable things for some
reason in my brain from yeah, okay, yeah, I thought
this was super fucking funny. It is and uh yeah,
like it's just I don't know, it's just one of
those all time things, you know, especially the last bit
here on the show.
Speaker 2: Oh, I mean, it's it's ridiculous. The when I was
you know, so I saw a few suggestions for this
and I was like, oh, yeah, okay, I'll see what
this is. And I saw the little like just just
the one shot of Austin blindfolded, and I said, Okay,
we are watching this, whatever this is. We got to
see what this is. And uh yeah, it's quite a show.
It's quite a show during a period where I think
a lot of wrestling fans stopped watching wrestling. But before
we talk about this episode of Roll, let's talk about
what was going on in the world wrestling at the
time with the Wrestling Observer newsletter. Of course, I have
a few things here, not too many on this one,
but a couple things for us to get into before
we talk about this show. From The Observer September third,
two thousand and one and WWF News. It appears at
this point the company's belief is that RVB has the
most potential of all the newcomers, even had a Booker
t but those two are the standouts at this point.
I want to put that in here just because I
feel like that has been my thoughts and I'm yours too.
Of course, you might even been a bigger RVD fan
than I was about RVD even when we were young,
and then even when we were old.
Speaker 1: Dude, RVD was my dude. Yeah, dude, there's that picture
of me when I was a kid with the WWF
tickets in Norfolk. Yes, and I had the big RVD side. Yeah,
that was my boy. Come on, man, the phone fait
and shit, like, yeah, RVD was my dude, right, he was.
Speaker 3: Doing all the moves like he was cool as fuck.
Like I don't know how.
Speaker 2: We've talked about it ad nauseum, sir, like I won't
go into it again, but it's just I don't understand
how they took so long to like really try with
this guy as a top guy, and then when they
did it fucking immediately fell apart, Which is that sucks?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you know, at least RVD to me
has a bunch of memorable stuff, Like there are a
lot of his matches that I remember. I always love
him with the Hardcore title and the Intercontinental title. Yes,
it just looks great on him. I always think of
those two titles, and RVD is one of the first
guys that I think of, especially from this era. Yes,
and you know, we do get his main event little
deal there for just a second. It was nice to
at least be vindicated enough to see him win that title.
Speaker 2: So and then of course he goes to TNA and
he wins the title there too, and the best tells
him and we love that run.
Speaker 1: Yeah, of course Sting has the Sting mask on.
Speaker 2: Holy fucked that was RVD. He hits with the chair,
isn't it. That's god Wow, that's right. And I mean,
you know, i'd be remiss not mention RVDZW stuff. I mean,
like if ECW kept around, like he would have single
handedly got that show another TV deal. He was so
fucking awesome.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he really was, especially at that point in his career.
He was just he was just the man.
Speaker 2: And we got robbed of him and Mike awesome, Like
that was definitely what they were doing with Mike ACD
World Champ and then RVD was TV Champ like that's.
Speaker 1: He was gonna win that title too.
Speaker 2: Yes, oh my, and dude, it would have been huge.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm yep.
Speaker 2: Absolutely more WBF News. The original plan regarding going with
the stalker idea, which is of course the DDP angle,
was to make Undertaker more human because the feeling was
he wasn't selling enough in his old character. And Meltzer says,
for some reason, that is really funny. The the stalker
thing is crazy. This is it's not on this show.
So I don't and I don't, you know, we haven't
talked about the stalker DDP thing in a minute. I
don't feel like but of all people, there's no way
they thought this was gonna do anything good for uh
for DDP.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it was incredibly stupid then and it's
incredibly stupid now. It would have been interesting to see
what DDP could have done otherwise.
Speaker 2: I mean, think of all the people that could have
been the stalker of Undertaker's wife instead, like uh, Sean Stasyac.
Speaker 1: I think they probably went for DDP because there was
just no one else there that could do a Taker angle.
Speaker 2: It has to be like somebody, it has to be
a quote unquote top guy, right, like Taker is not
going to be feud in with Stalker Canyon.
Speaker 1: No. I do want to say they did have just incredible.
Speaker 2: They they did, they did, they did, but they had
bigger plans for him. He was an X factor. Yeah,
they got everything I have.
Speaker 1: I mean X factor A hell of a run.
Speaker 2: They hell of a run is like really nice, You're
like super nice?
Speaker 1: I got everything?
Speaker 2: Dude? How different with their career. But if it was
read out Jillipepper's do with that song, itainst dead.
Speaker 1: XPOC made a good fucking choice on that one. What
you looking at.
Speaker 2: From The Observer September tenth, two thousand and one and
w WF News. The WF is making legal threats against
websites with WWF as part of their name, which has
its ironies, and WWF lost its court in courts excuse me,
the rights to use the name as part of the Internet.
That's a crazy way for Meltzer to put it here.
But man, that must been rest in peace to a
lot of classic sites like WWFWCW dot com and WWF
raja dot com.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, things were changing on the Information super Highway.
Can you believe we gotta start calling it that again?
Speaker 2: You know, Okay, that's pretty good. Information super Highway was awesome.
That's also like what Jim Carrey calls it in Cable
Guy a lot, well.
Speaker 1: Because that's what it was. You know, fuck the social
media shit. We're on that information super Highway.
Speaker 2: Dude, Sean Stasyach was on the Information Superhighway a lot. Actually,
can you believe that raja dot com still exists?
Speaker 1: I can. We looked this up a while back. I mean,
it was a couple of years ago. I assume nothing
has changed since then.
Speaker 2: So oh, they still report big news like uh these
shareholder reports and uh, everything I see on Twitter, I wonder, damn,
I wonder how much these sites have taken a hit now.
That's like I don't I don't know how many articles
I even look at. I just read whatever bullshit's on
Twitter and hope it's true.
Speaker 1: I'm on the Information super Highway, consuming creating.
Speaker 2: They got good stuff on that Information super Highway.
Speaker 1: Stuff you couldn't even believe.
Speaker 2: Wow, I'm excited. I might have to join you.
Speaker 1: Definitions of words yeah, oh wow. Movies of that nature.
Speaker 2: Movies and definitions of words.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's awesome.
Speaker 2: Yeah, lock in, here's one for you James. Okay, I
put this here because I don't know if I knew this.
Maybe you knew this already. Stacy Keebler was in Bubble Boy,
water Boy. Bubble Boy. Bubble Boy is the movie where
the kids in the bubble all the time. It's actually
like water Boy, except the kids in the bubble. Stey
Griffin Family. Go, No, you said here, here's the here's
a like.
Speaker 1: There's an episode of Family Guy where he's in the bubble.
Speaker 2: I'm not but it's Stacy Hebler's not on Family Guy.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about that instead.
Speaker 2: Do you know this movie?
Speaker 1: Oh? Is this her part of the movie.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's on the stage and she's dancing. Yeah, so
this is what Stacy Keepler's doing at the time. Here
in O one, she's in Bubble Boy. Last couple of
things here from The Observer, September seventeenth, two thousand and one.
Randy Poffo Randy Savage, of course, has followed a lawsuit
against former girlfriend Stephanie Bellars for using the name Gorgeous
George in a porn video. Randy Savage, which purchased the
rights to the Gorgeous George name from the heirs of
the original Gorgeous George Raymond Wagner, who was the biggest
crossover television star atist peak in American pro wrestling history
in the late forties. Originally, he bought the name for
a w CW gimmick for his brother, Lanny Poffo, but
it ended up never being used, and instead gave the
nickname to his girlfriend when she was introduced on Nitro.
When the two split up and she went back to stripping,
she was no longer allowed to use the name. That's uh,
I mean, there's a thousand gorgeous Georgies. I didn't know
there's a porn gorgeous storage now too.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, Randy Savage had a whole bunch of
people named gorgeous George around him.
Speaker 2: He was just gonna name his brother gorgeous George. He
gonna just be Lanny Poffo.
Speaker 1: Well, he also had his friend who helped him make
the album he was gorgeous George.
Speaker 2: Fuck, you're right, Oh he shit. He probably had a
guy at the gym named gorgeoush George.
Speaker 1: Well, it's like one of those deals where if you
don't use a trademark, you lose it.
Speaker 2: You know what that does happen, and it was probably
hul Cogan's fault.
Speaker 1: Be a Man Hogan Man Holgan. Last thing here.
Speaker 2: Billy Silverman, the WCW referee, quit WWF on September tecond
after a flight from Halifax to Toronto. Billy Silverman had
been ribbed unmercifully since he upgraded himself to first class
on a flight, which is considered Yeah, it's considered a
sign of arrogance to do so, because first class is
only for people who have made it to the top
of the WF, like Shan Stasiak, although in WCW they
had no such unwritten rule of conduct and anyone could
upgrade themselves and you know how it goes. Silverman didn't
read that invisible manual they give you when taking the
WF job. He was told if he bought beers for
everyone on the flight, everyone would let it go. But
somehow he didn't buy enough beers and was still getting
ribbed and when he landed he quit. Many such cases.
Speaker 1: Huh, yeah, I mean, that's like one of the rules
that I always read about if you don't buy what
you have to do is if you buy first class
and one of the boys sees it like the undertaker
or something. You got to give your seat.
Speaker 2: Up and that will make it okay, which Billy Silverman
did not do. And he didn't buy enough beers like
for the whole roster.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Quentin Is I mean, I don't blame him.
Speaker 2: Well, that is it for the Observer for now. We
have a couple things that I will talk about at
the end of the show. But now let's talk about
WWF Monday Night Row for September third, two thousand and one.
Speaker 1: All right, let's get into this raw here. We start
with the code open. Steve Austin attacked Kurt Angle, stole
his gold medals and threw them off a bridge.
Speaker 2: Yes this is from SmackDown. I think that just passed here,
and Austin is whipping his ass j r. Sis Oh,
come on, Austin his point Kurd Angle's gold medals around
his neck. He didn't know knows. Stone Cold was not
in the nineteen ninety six Olympics. He was a jobber
in ecw He losing a Mikey whipreck in nineteen ninety six.
Yead hair, he had hair, Look at you, look at you.
Speaker 1: He was not freestyle wrestling.
Speaker 2: He was working shitty ECW in a shitty Bengo hall.
Excuse me, what was that shit? How about I fuck
up the rest of the show.
Speaker 1: Weren't you fired from w W? Well, damn weren't you fired?
Fuck you?
Speaker 2: So yeah, also ends up a bridge and he uh,
as you said he will first, Okay, he throws the
gold medals off the bridge, which is of course agreedious.
I mean here in those of the Olympics with a
broken freaking neck, everyone knows this. Uh, why did kred
Angle have fucking come all over his face?
Speaker 1: He was milking himself down.
Speaker 2: A little post backdown, celebratory on.
Speaker 1: Ain't nothing wrong with the little milk?
Speaker 2: I mean it was milk Omania all over his fucking face.
Speaker 1: I mean even later in the evening, Stephanie was like,
credi Angle had all that fucking milk.
Speaker 2: They milked us to death.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh shit, yeah, yeah, they milked me crazy.
Speaker 1: Who's talking about there? They should have this segment later
where just Incredible walks in the room and they're like, yea,
oh my god, god, damn it, fuck it wasted surprise
on just incredible, Oh.
Speaker 2: My god, that would have been all They should have
did that all.
Speaker 1: The time, that would have been funny.
Speaker 2: Wow, he would have had a longer job. So Austin
wanted to kurd Angle to beg for him. He didn't
do it, so he threw the U through the metals
in the goddamn river.
Speaker 1: Well it was even crazier, Yeah, because I think he
attaches the gold medals to a cinder block and then
throws the cinder block into the river.
Speaker 2: I couldn't tell if it was a cinder block or
if it was a stone cold cooler that was weighed down.
Speaker 1: Oh, that would be even better.
Speaker 2: I think that might have been what it was. It
looks it was colorful. Yeah, no, that's awesome. Kurt eventually
does get the metals back, right because like he has
them for years after this, So I don't know how
they explained that.
Speaker 1: Probably went scuba diving.
Speaker 2: Ah, you know what easiest way to do it.
Speaker 1: I will say the very ending of this video is
pretty funny. The video ends, Steve Austin looks at the camera.
Speaker 2: What it's like a he like had a bunch of
built up momentum and he throws it into the river
and he goes.
Speaker 1: What that shit was funny as hell? I mean, it
was the most somber what I've ever heard nowhere?
Speaker 3: Yeah, like it scared me. Actually, I thought the video
was done. I like that usage of the what that
was funny.
Speaker 4: What.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I also love how often things were just thrown
off a bridge or into the river, or it was
whatever the case may be. In the WWF. I mean, yeah,
there are countless moments over the last four years in
this company where they go to the river and throw
something in or threaten to throw somebody off or whatever
the case is.
Speaker 3: Yes or do yeah right, yeah, like it's and every
time I remember all of them.
Speaker 1: When I was a kid, I thought that they were
all the same bridges. Okay, I did too, dude, Okay,
I definitely thought there was like the WWF bridge. I
didn't even like think, oh, this is in a different location,
this would be a different bridge. I just thought, sure,
oh they have the bridge they always go to.
Speaker 2: Well, dude, all of the stuff that they did always
looked the same, right, so like probably there was a
good chance. For a long time, I also thought the
shows always just took place in the same spot. The
stage looked the same, the backstage, William Regal's office was
always the same, Like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is all the same deal. Yeah, when you're
young and dumb, you know, just whatever they take them.
Speaker 3: They take them to the WWF bridge. That's the place
you go, dude.
Speaker 1: I legit thought that when I was young, Dude, like
the same location that Rock fucking did the Primo. But
then you take the fish and shingle threatening to thirsty
of Austin off. I thought that was the same fucking area. Yeah,
that's like in the video games when you go to
the same fucking area. Yes, I thought that was what
it was in real life. Was that was the same area.
Speaker 2: It should be that way.
Speaker 1: That would be funny as shit. They have a show
in Toronto and they go to like New Jersey or something.
Speaker 2: Well, Kurt loaded them up in the truck. He extit
drive through the WWF fridge.
Speaker 1: Well look at this, Steve, We're in New Jersey. Now
what ship. I don't have a dear fuck. I've been
a lot of these, dude. The rockway throws them off.
Speaker 2: Austin is hanging on for dear life and he winds
it up. Go fuck yourself. You be trag good hell.
Speaker 1: I mean that one's funny. Man. That was good.
Speaker 2: He should have he should have did the people's elfaw
with Austin haging there, I would have have his video game.
Austin stands on the ledge.
Speaker 1: The little hands, he said, the little hands just hold
it all. He's looking up ship Man.
Speaker 2: And then Austin's back the next week on Raw.
Speaker 1: Later and it's still funny.
Speaker 2: It's I mean, it's legendary.
Speaker 1: We head on over to the intro for the show
Why am I the thorn in your eye?
Speaker 2: It's my life in a box, dude.
Speaker 1: This is legendary to me. Hardcore Holly, trash can lid smashes,
yes into Scottie two, hotty Face, the rock Eyebrow, Kurt Angles, scream,
Steve Austin smile. I'm telling you this was like, this
is the one very important of an era to me
as a kid. Yeah, legendary intro.
Speaker 2: Here, Yeah, like this is the one here and one
The only thing I noted here was wow. They had
a lot of dudes getting hit in the head with
weapons in these intros and it was awesome. It was sick.
I mean, the fucking is the Bob Holly one, the
trash can lids, the double trash can lids, Yes, where he.
Speaker 1: Hits them with one and it hits them with the
other yes, and it goes into the Scotti two hotty face.
Speaker 2: This intro is fucking awesome, and dude, I mean, good lord,
the amount of signs I feel like every time we
watch these is like a bajillion.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, especially this one because they didn't go
to Canada often. Oh yeasa coming up and like this
was a big deal. You know, they're doing a raw
before they do Mania the next year. So yeah, I
mean there's a lot of people there that are excited.
Speaker 2: There's a lot of RVD signs.
Speaker 1: Dude, I mean, he's the man.
Speaker 2: Come on, he's the man, period.
Speaker 1: He looks awesome here. Yeah, we'll talk about him later
in the evening, but man, he's awesome. Yeah, he's great.
Speaker 2: Well, Stone Cold, Chive, Wasshington and Kurd Angle are both
expected to be here live tonight, and we'd love to
eric Canada Center in Toronto. Eighteen thy and nineteen sold
out in ninety minutes and what a main event tonight. Yes,
it's RVD and Rhino taking on HY two j in
the returning Jeff Hardy, And I was like, oh the
fuck happened to Jeff Hardy? We find that out later,
of course, but it's a very Jeff Hardy reason why
he's not here. We get a shot at WF New
York where everyone's fired up. I figured they would have
done like at least one week where this was like
Alliance New York or WCW New York or something, but
I guess not.
Speaker 1: My favorite part here is that all the fans at
WWF New York were very excited, specifically for the Rock
defending the WCW title and it's against Christian.
Speaker 2: Dude, big fight. Feel he and the Rock cared about
the WCW title so much that he did not take
a picture with it, so they had to photoshop at
all to them.
Speaker 1: Of course, this isn't even the real big goal. This
is the replica from the movies.
Speaker 2: Dude, I always fucking forget that. Wow, that's so weird.
So wait, who had the real one then?
Speaker 1: Well, I think at the time Scott Steiner had it
and he didn't want to take it on the road,
so he just used one of the replica titles. I'm
not sure who would have it at the time. I imagine
Steiner probably still had it at the time, sure, or
maybe WWF when they got the assets they just didn't
even care to look. I don't really know how the
ending of that goes. I just know that WWF always
used the replica. They never used the real Big Gold
on TV.
Speaker 2: They did not fuck with Scott Seiner so much that
that they were like, oh fuck it, just chalk that
one up to a loss. We'll just get a new one.
Speaker 1: I even think about that. Scott Steiner doesn't come to
this company for a minute.
Speaker 2: Oh we got a couple of years still. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well, we go to the first match of the evening
here Undertaker versus Test.
Speaker 2: We just watched this on the Long Way with Macho.
They did a pay per view match in like two
SUMMERSLAMO two Undertaker and Test. So this is one of
many between the two big men.
Speaker 1: You know what's crazy on this show. Vince McMahon is
not here.
Speaker 2: No, Yeah, that is weird. I don't do they explain
it either.
Speaker 1: I mean, I gotta say, we've watched a lot of
this shit. It is nice to have a week where
Vince McMahon is not fucking here.
Speaker 2: Don't worry, you'll get the other McMahon's though.
Speaker 1: That's fine. Honestly, they don't go into the ring to
start the show and do the same promo every single time.
Speaker 2: That's very true. In this very rig.
Speaker 1: Well Taker of course comes out to roll in by
limp biscuit mm hmm, and he is super over. He's
got the motorcycle. He's the WWF and WCW tag champ officially. Yeah,
of course, I mean he's got both the bells. Who's
to say otherwise?
Speaker 2: Well, Taker wants to shinn his good wishes to his
Brodac Kane from the injuries he suffered ATCHUMMERSLAMB because I
thought this was gonna be a tag match. I thought
Ca was about to get his own entry, but no,
Kane got his shit rock that uh at SUMMERSLAMO one
here and he's not here. He's at home in full
gear watching the show with his dad.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, just fathering son. Things. Gotta support the family.
Speaker 2: Of course, it's the family business, which they all know about.
Speaker 1: I gotta say, also, dude, how fun does this shit
look like? The show kicks off? Fucking Pyro show. Everyone's
having a good time, screaming or whatever.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: The first dude that comes out here is on a motorcycle,
coming out the limp biscuit, right, I knew nothing about
this fucking show. And two thousand and one, I go
to a sold out arena and the first thing I
fucking see is a motorcycle come out with Pyro and
Limp Biscuit. I'm nine beers deep. I'm going fucking nuts,
you know what I mean, Like, if you're twenties, now,
if you're your twenties, this has got to be like
the funnest shit ever.
Speaker 2: Dude, going to this with the boys had to be
like super equivalents like going to the Boys and seeing
like UFC in like two thousand and six.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just gotta be fucking awesome. I mean, it's
just got to be the coolest shit ever.
Speaker 2: I mean, how how do they funck this up? Is
really what I think of anytime I think of shit
like that, Like they they have all the pieces.
Speaker 1: Also, I was surprised here that we started with the match.
There was not a fucking promo from someone from the
McMahon Helmsley regime alliance. Yeah, I'm surprised, Like we started
with a match and they just went straight into the
match and it was a match with like a real shine.
I was, I know, kind of thrown off. I was
like Wow, okay, damn.
Speaker 2: Dude, Yeah, and like I gotta give it to him,
like Taker was moving in this one.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Taker actually starts the match off here with some
arm drags, drop toe holdz Test into an STF.
Speaker 2: What the fuck was that? That was insane? I was like, wow,
I don't know if like they were like saying, hey,
let's go out here and work a little or something.
But yeah, hip toss, arm drag, dropped to hold STF.
These were Undertakes moves. This like a fucked up two
K move. Said, I don't know what's going on here,
trying to learn some MMA, buddy, Tested. Taker just got
done watching Pride and we're really fired up.
Speaker 1: Taker scares the referee when the ref gets on him
for holding during the rope brak, So the ref literally
powders to the outside yes, which allows Tests to get
up and hit a line to take over. I thought
that was very cool the ref, like I was great
backing off and powdering is like, I don't see that
very often, so that was cool.
Speaker 2: Taker chasing the ref is always great. I feel like that.
The ref's always like slide out on Undertaker looking at
them like we triple hs are they you know, fuck
triple hs but Taker, oh fuck, we're not fucking with
the Undertaker.
Speaker 1: Test hits a sidewalk slam in the middle of the
ring and it sounded like the ring was about to
fucking break.
Speaker 2: This ring sounds like shit. I don't know if I
just got used to it the rest of the night
or if they tighten the ropes or something, but like
he would throw them into the buckle. It sounded like
it was about the like everything was stripped, the canvas
sound like the board sounded fucked up. I said, what
ring is this?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I liked it because it was so much different
than like the way that WWF at the time usually was.
They would use their own ring. Yeah, I think they.
I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't bring a ring
for this and they just like used a.
Speaker 2: Local maybe yeah, because it's Canada, right, Yeah, so bringing
a ring like over the border or whatever, Yeah, it
might be annoying.
Speaker 1: Test hits a back elbow from the second here, and
then hits two side Russian leg sweeps. He goes for
the third one here, but Taker trips him up and
grabs a leg submission. Holy shit.
Speaker 2: Yeah, rolls through and puts him in like a rolling
leg lock, almost a knee bar, and Test has to
fight for the ropes. I'm like, wow, they are this
is the complete not the match I thought it was
going to be.
Speaker 1: Reminded me of a prime Frank Mirror. You want to
do this? Are you trying to do this?
Speaker 2: Frank Meer should have came to WWF. But then he
saw Austin get symbolized.
Speaker 1: Do you remember that the the brock Lesnar Undertaker UFC deal?
Speaker 2: I do remember what it is? Like, you want to
do it? Like, yeah, man, give me five years, I'll
show up and I'll beat your streak.
Speaker 1: So Taker hits a string of moves here and he
sets up for the last ride. But wait, who is
that on the ramp? Who's running down to the ring?
Speaker 2: I was stunned. I was like, super stunned by this.
Speaker 5: It's Stephen Richards, the former right just sit and it
said fucking stalker.
Speaker 1: Look at it.
Speaker 5: He just stalker, Stephen Richards. Stephen Richards just hit to
Stephen Richards kick.
Speaker 2: This is fucking crazy. Okay, one I have to say,
Taker does the big leaping larryt in this. I love
that move. It's one of my favorite moves takeshta kind
of does it now, great fucking.
Speaker 1: Move, Yes, he does do it. Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 2: Two, there was a big go Leaf's go chant during this,
which I thought that was yes. Yeah. It took me
a minute to figure it out, but it was go
Leaf's go shout out to a team Pride. Then yeah,
Taker calls for the last ride. Stephen Goddamn richardson All
black comes out and not only does the Stephen kick,
lays out the Undertaker with the Stephen kick and stomps
him out. Stephen Richards gets one up on the Undertaker
because the Undertaker and Kane just killed the Right to Censor,
so he's back for revenge.
Speaker 1: Dude. The Stephen kick on Undertaker was so funny. I
couldn't believe it.
Speaker 2: I love it, Like I'm put fuck here, I'm pushing
Stephen Richards, get this man a win over the Undertaker.
Speaker 1: Now, dude, I love that. Stephen Richards also wasn't in
the Right to censor White here. He was in the
funeral of the right to censor Black, Dude. He was
in the all blacked out. This is what Cody Road
was trying to do. An ae W.
Speaker 2: The dev oft Superman brother. Holy shit, dude, I want
to bring this up too, because I don't know if
we'll have another chance to talk about it, have you,
because Dom just sent me this and I totally forgot
about it. Do you know the story of Stevie Richards
winning a million dollars from MLB?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I actually have heard about that. It was the
MLB two K eleven game that he plays, that's right,
and he could have won a million dollars, but I
think he did it a little bit too early.
Speaker 2: So it was a million dollar giveaway for the first
person who could record himself pitching a perfect game and
MLB two K eleven h and he did it and
recorded and posted it. But so I guess they've done
this contest a few times, so like it usually started
when the game came out, but this time it didn't
start till April first. So he does it, and they
did not give him the win because he posted it
too early.
Speaker 1: And then Steven Richards gets an Undertaker's face here and
I don't know what happened here, so take her like
he like pushes his hand back and it like whiffs
complet Yeah, he was trying to like punch Steven Richards
from the ground or like at least push him out
of the way. Yeah, and he just kind of whiffs.
And of course the camera shot, I mean we're talking
the worst possible shot they could have got on this.
I mean they are right on this shot. And Stephen
Richards sells it like he got punched in the face
and there is just no there is just no contact here,
none at all. Yeah, it was it was rough man,
but uh, I mean, I will not forget the night
that Stephen Richards returned to hit the Stephen kick on
the Undertaker.
Speaker 2: I mean, Stephen Richards, he's got some balls. He gave
it to him, hit him with a Stephen kick and
then he powders and and take her gives up. But
that's not done because Test hits him the running big boot.
Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, I mean Test hits the big boot. His
music plays, Test and Stephen Richards stand tall on the Undertaker,
and Stephen Richards is smiling on the ramp.
Speaker 2: The New Brother's a destruction.
Speaker 1: We go to a pre tape in the back here.
Christian is backstage in the Oakley two thousand Glasses and
he's talking to an arena employee about how much he's
a freaking celebrity or in Toronto.
Speaker 2: Dude, it's killing him to be a celebrity here in Toronto.
He says, I know you don't have any idea about this,
but you know, at the hotel earlier I going to
go anywhere, the people were all over me. And it's
escalated because now everyone knows I'm gonna beat the Rock
for the w CITB Championship. And Christian looks over and
a couple of people walk up and Chris is all,
here we go again. And they walk up and say, hey, dude,
can you help us with our seats?
Speaker 1: Hey, you know where we're sitting.
Speaker 2: And the lady looks at Christian and says, oh my god,
it's at his brother.
Speaker 1: Holy shit, dude, Yeah that was good, and.
Speaker 2: He says, that's right. I'm I'm edge. He said, that's right,
I'm Christian. How you did you got some good seats there?
He says, yeah, front row. Chris says, that's well, that's great.
I hope you know you got good seats for uh,
so you can watch me beat the Rock for the
w CITB title and I hope you have a good time.
So they leave and go to their seats, and Christian
looks at the security guy and says, listen, those rikazoids
out of the front, right.
Speaker 1: You got it. Ugly people here in Toronto, dude.
Speaker 2: He says, I don't want to be my shot of
when I beat the Rock for the title. There's gonna
be a lot of people to taking pictures and I
don't want it to be marred by any ugly people
in the background. That's fucking awesome, he says. You know,
I'm proud to be Canadian all but there's a lot
of ugly people here in Toronto, man brutal boom. Of course,
you know, no one, no one gets heat on Canada
like Stephanie though on this show.
Speaker 1: Oh my fucking god, this is Tephany Heat later is
so fucking funny.
Speaker 2: It's insane.
Speaker 1: So we go to a pre tape here. During the break,
Michael Cole approaches Stephen Richards, who has his bag and
he is leaving.
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, Steven, he stops him, Michael Cole and he says,
Stephen Richards, we haven't seen you in months and you're
back any attack the Undertaker, and Steven says, hell, yeah, hell,
you're goddamn right. What the fuck well, goddamn, he says,
with all the people that were unsuccessful in disbanding the RTC,
only one person was successful. And that person's laying in
the center of the ring. And you know you ax
so surprised. Well, here's another surprise for you tomorrow. On smackdowns,
the Undertaker.
Speaker 1: Told one on one match, Oh my.
Speaker 2: Dude, that is nuts.
Speaker 1: You think the Undertaker accepts his challenge.
Speaker 2: The Undertaker doesn't even know this guy exists.
Speaker 1: Well, Vince Carter from the Toronto Raptors is here. Hooray, dude.
I mean when I was growing up, Vince Carter and
Tracy McGrady, those guys might as well have been superheroes. Dude.
Speaker 2: See, I knew, I know the name Vince Carter, but
I know like nothing about basketball.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think Tracy McGrady had already left the Raptors
by this point, so that's why Vince Carter was there
by himself. Okay, but uh yeah, dude, I mean Vince
Carter and Tracy McGrady were were just I mean, they
were just so sick. Vince Carter, I think won the
two thousand Slam dunk contests changed the game. People still
talk about that slam Dunk contest do this day. And
it also didn't hurt that the Toronto Raptors at the
time had the coolest jerseys ever. They were like the
very nineties Dinosaur Raptors jerseys.
Speaker 2: That makes sense.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we have the WrestleMania eighteen press conference. The Rock
is on the stage with his Nochia cell phone attached
to his belt. Moot, who wants to go to WrestleMania
with the rock.
Speaker 2: Y'all out here smelling numb? Yeah? Mike Harris, who I
assume has something to do with the city or whatever,
says every other city wanted the hosts wrestleman E eighteen,
and we put the smack down on all those other cities.
Fuck them well, of course, James. Of course, when you
introduce something to a new town, the Undertaker has to
be here.
Speaker 1: I save wrestling New Jersey, and I did again in Toronto.
I saved taxes in New Jersey. Bring t Mac back to.
Speaker 2: And also, while I have the stage.
Speaker 1: That's enough, Jo BRONI off the stage. What the hell?
Speaker 2: You can't talk to me like that?
Speaker 1: Rock? These always made the WWE seem so big to
me as a kid. The press conferences, Yeah, like whenever
they would have the wrestlers not on the show, like
when they were out in real life and they would
play the press conference. Yeah, yeah, they would always these
shots they would do. I remember like being a kid,
and like they do those shots where everyone's lined up
outside the building and they would shot down the shot. Yeah,
where it's like real blurry and they're running down the shot.
And they'd always talk to the people. They are like, oh,
I love the rock and I'm like, oh my god,
Like these guys are the coolest guys ever. Yeah, Like
they would do all this ship right, It's just smooth dude, right.
Speaker 2: And like they would tell you know, oh fuck, all
these people went there to buy tickets just for this show.
Like that's how big of a deal this is. And
I don't even understand the scope of it. Yeah, we
just showed out one hundred thousand in twenty minutes. I
don't know they could have said in twenty days. I'm like, wow,
that's a lot of tickets.
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, Like they were so good at like doing
this deal here. I just whenever we look back at this,
it's always just a time capsule part that I like
to experience again because I just remember as a kid
being like, wow, I wish I was there. I know,
I know, that's dude.
Speaker 2: They got you a lot with those I mean you
were talking about the live and men experience too. I mean,
as a kid, goddamn hell y, I want to go there,
and I want to get the goddamn DX foam fingers,
and I want to see them come out, and I
want to see the Undertaker.
Speaker 1: We go backstage to Jerry's here with William Regal, Commissioner
Regal in his office.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he uh to Jerry's of course, speaking in Japanese,
and Regal understands them and he uh to. Jerry fires
off a sentence and Regal says, yeah, I feel dreadful
about it.
Speaker 1: What happened to you?
Speaker 2: And that match of Landstorm is horrible, and I uh
it was probably boring you shit, that was what the
bad part was boring.
Speaker 1: Boring, dude. I gotta say, Man, Regal's face here when
to Jerry is speaking to him in Japanese is so
fucking funny.
Speaker 2: It's Mike Tinay esque.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he has the most concentrated face ever when he's
speaking Japanese. And I feel dreadful about.
Speaker 2: What happened, and I told you you couldn't trust that
bloody tart toy, that slapper, damn, damn. And that's why
he's my influence. Tonight, if you can get a partner,
you could face the Dudley Boys to find out who
the number one contender is for the tag titles, all
of them. And Regal says, so, who have you picked?
And the jury speaks Japanese and Regal says who. Then
the door opens very loudly and the jury points over
and he starts rubbing his stomach. Now he doesn't do that.
The jury points over. It's the big show.
Speaker 1: Big show comes through it. He's hyped up.
Speaker 2: He's speaking Japanese and the jury they're firing off. They're
going nuts.
Speaker 1: Backstage, Steve Austin with the WWF title is here with
Deborah and he's talking to her about people from Canada, saying.
Speaker 2: Hey, yeah, Debra's carrying his bags of course, which I
always thought it was funny. And Austin says, every time,
well of these Canadian people tell you something, they got
to follow it up with, eh, E, what's to do
with dad?
Speaker 1: Eh?
Speaker 2: And he's walking backwards to open his locker room door.
Speaker 3: For some reason, and the Alliance are on side and
that y're surprise. Whoo oh you got me off guard there,
and he should have started throwing bunches.
Speaker 1: What tells? What tells me doing in my room? Dude?
All the stars are here, man, I mean the allot
How did the how did the invasion not work? James?
Speaker 2: Look at this locker room.
Speaker 1: We have Stephanie McMahon, Mike Awesome, Tommy Dreamer, Rhino, Raven,
Stacy Keebler, Sean Stasyac Chuck Plombo, Taz Chavo Guerrero, Hugh
Morris and just incredible.
Speaker 2: I mean, this is w CW and ECW as I
finally remember it at the top and.
Speaker 1: Dud this was the company, the two companies that were
kicking WWF's ass.
Speaker 2: The WWF still has a problem beating these guys. They
can't stop this invasion to this day. Well, Stephanie says,
Stone Cold, we're here to all honor you, and I
said on Austin Appreciation I that you were an inspiration.
And then Kurd Angle comes in Dowas's milk all over us.
Speaker 1: All of us were milked by Kurt Angle during Stone
Cold Appreciation night. Oh that's that has never been spoken
until that moment.
Speaker 2: But in act of brilliance, who dows Kurt Angle's hopes
and dreams? When he threw his medals in the bridge
and stone Cold, it wasn't just inspiring, it was life altering.
You lead by example, and I hope any of us
could even come close to following that example. And Austin says, well,
when I took those gold medals from Kurt had chucked
them into that river, I didn't just do it for myself.
I did for each and every member of the Alliance.
I did it for you guys. And he points Java's face.
Speaker 1: I did it for you right here?
Speaker 2: Hey, what the hell is there?
Speaker 1: Hey? Son? You spelled your name wrong. You spelled it
with a wah. There's a ah there specially to be
a ah. And there's no team in the alliance?
Speaker 3: Didn't you have Pete? What's And look at you? Hey,
Mike awesome? You look fool brother, And I know I
know that. Ain't me back there? Just a rib, Tommy dreaming.
Speaker 1: Was just a rib.
Speaker 2: It just incredibles face?
Speaker 1: Is this a rib? All right? So? Just want you
get up here?
Speaker 2: No, it's just talk what you're right? Sorry? Steve you're
back in line. I'll be back in line.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, Josh, stand right here right in front of me. Yes, Steve,

Speaker 1: Thank you back in line.
Speaker 2: I'm in your team. Okay, Stephanie, tell me how good
I am. Great, Steve, You're one of the best.
Speaker 1: Thank you, Yes, I am so.
Speaker 2: Austin says, you know, that's all fine at all.
Speaker 1: But Joe, you haven't seen curd, have.
Speaker 2: You, and says, you know, I find a guess he's
probably taking scuba lessons at the bottom of the river
and everyone, I mean they're all laughing. Everyone's having a
good time in Austin. I mean, he winds his whole
body Backwards's fucking insane.
Speaker 1: That was probably taking scooba lessons at the bottom of
a river.
Speaker 2: That's the funny he's ever heard of his life.
Speaker 1: Ship. Chevvy fucking dying. I legit had to. Like everyone's
just having a good time.
Speaker 2: He's like holding his stomach his head as far back
as possible.
Speaker 1: Man, that's Chevy dying. Man, Like I love heal Steve
Austin I love heal Steve Austin.
Speaker 2: Before dude, Like people point to this as being a
downswing of the like w w F when he turned heel.
This is fucking quality.
Speaker 1: Yeah, man, this was very very good.
Speaker 2: He is the most obnoxious man in the world.
Speaker 1: Dude. The ending is super funny too, Like, I love
that Steve Austin's emotions are just one second he's on,
when second he's off, one second he's on, Like, I
love how quickly it switches, Like Stephanie says here at
the end, she says that they have a huge surprise
for Stone Cold. Yeah, stone Coldly, he has this big
smile on his face. I can't wait. I love you guys.
Speaker 3: And then everyone's standing there, like he starts clapping, so
everyone else starts clapping too, and they're just a roomful
of people clapping at each other.
Speaker 1: Dude, that is.
Speaker 3: I love you, guys. I can't wait. Not you, just
not you, just their son. You make me sick. You
look pathetic?
Speaker 2: What I look like? You? What you look? You stand
back there looking like a jackass. I'm dressed like you Stack.
Speaker 1: I'll just play with your son. I love you, you
love stoy Holds.
Speaker 2: I love you.
Speaker 1: So we have our next match of the evening here,
the Dudley Boys versus to Jerry and Big Show to
Jerry runs down to the ring here and the Dudley
Boys attack him. I love that Big Show and too
Jerry both came out together to Big Show's song and
to Jerry ran down to the ring.
Speaker 2: By himself and Big Show was not running, so like,
you know, I'll get there when I get there.
Speaker 1: Yeah. My first thought when I saw this happen was, man,
I hope these guys do the rocket launcher.
Speaker 2: Oh. I mean, like there was a litany of things
they could have did that they just don't.
Speaker 1: Do anytime I see like a very huge guy and
then a small guy. I first thought is, man, I
hope they do the rocket launcher and it should be
the finish did Jerry comes in and starts punching the
fuck out of Devon in the corner here, and then
he locks in the tarantula to a massive pop.
Speaker 2: It's super over. Hayman loses his mind on commentary over it.
I I mean, I love this move.
Speaker 1: Bubba's stun guns to Jerry and the Dudley's take over here.
Speaker 2: That look good?
Speaker 1: It did? He got him way up there for it.
Speaker 2: He was up there crazy and then Tory Wilson runs
down with the stomach ache.
Speaker 1: Jr. Says Tory might have feelings for Tajerry's so I
guess that's kind of where we're at here. He is cheat.
Speaker 2: No, don't do that, Tory Wilson, you should have feelings
for me.
Speaker 1: Paul Haman, I love that Bubba does the falling double
axe to a down. Heyd love that move, dude, me too.
It's so good, Like I don't see anyone else doing that.
It's always just Bubba Ray. He does the double axe
and he just goes belly first and hits it. It's
so sick.
Speaker 2: It's a couple elbow drops and then the falling double
axe and then it's a pinfall, Like what a great move.
Speaker 1: Devon misses an Alabama jam here and to Jerry hits
a drop kick for a double down.
Speaker 3: I thought Devon going for a leg was nuts, and
it didn't look like he was very familiar with it
because he lands on his fucking tail.
Speaker 1: Vote dude, Okay, it looked like he was going for
something else and then decided maybe just leg drop, and
either way that looked like it hurt really bad if.
Speaker 3: I forgot that to Jer was moving, so he said,
oh shit, dude, fuck Big Show hot tag.
Speaker 1: He comes in, he does a double line comeback.
Speaker 2: Holy shit, dude.
Speaker 1: I don't know what I was expecting, but double line
comeback with the double back body drops was not the
Big Show hot tag I expected.
Speaker 2: There was a the road agents are telling everybody to
go back to basics. He told Taker that Big Show's
going back to basic baby face tag shit like we're
dialing it in here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you know, Big Show goozl.
Speaker 2: I think it's hitting the balls.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Big Show goozles Bubbaret Dudley here and Devon Low
blows the Big Show to Jerry goes to missed Bubbaret
but misses and he missed the Big Show instead.
Speaker 2: No, he's got that goo all over them. It's green right,
was it the green mist?
Speaker 1: It was the green misted?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: What one was that?
Speaker 2: What does that do.
Speaker 1: That temporarily disorients you? Oh?
Speaker 2: Is that that one?
Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
Speaker 2: Also, the camera, the hardcam that they show here, did
not catch this. I had to rewind to figure out
why the crowd reacted so much to the Big Show
hitting the ropes.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: It turns out he knocks Tory off the apron.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: At first, dude, it's crazy. He gets missed. Big Show
stumbles into the ropes and the crowd goes, Oh, I'm like,
what did the fuck something just fucking.
Speaker 1: Snap, Irish whips are over.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Tory gets bumped off the apron.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so they pushed Big Show into Tory here on
the apron, she takes a bump, Big Show gets shit canned.
Speaker 2: Dude.
Speaker 1: The crowd yells three, I love this finish Yeah, me too, man.
Uh to Jerry, I love the way to Jerry is
able to work into the three D here instead of
just turning around. My first thought was like, he's gonna
turn around here, but he does. They work it into
a spot here before the dulllies hit the three D
and they end up winning the match.
Speaker 2: Dude, it's so fucking good to Like you said, they
call for the three D to Jerry fucking gets out
of the way that he goes for the handspring back
elbow Divon moves out of the way of it. To
Jerry stumbles into the ropes and bounces off the ropes.
Three D kill him with it. Oh my god, that
was so hot. I loved it.
Speaker 1: Big Show carries Tory Wilson out to get some help.
She took a big bump off the apron there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean she fucking went apron to the floor.
She died and the Dudleys were a little confused at
Big Show leaving. But it left to Jerry all on
his lonesome, which of course means it's time to get
the tables, which is what Devon does. He gets the tables,
he gets a table, sits in the ring. They load
to Jerry up on Bubba's shoulders in the corner and
power bomb him directly through the table to Jerry folds
up fucking crazy.
Speaker 1: He really does a big show, then runs back down
after the power bomb and the dove powder.
Speaker 2: I thought that we're gonna try to like recruit to
Jerry here because like, hey, your boy's gone. We won't
kill you, just so you know your boy took your girl. Though.
Speaker 1: Fuck that, we gotta pop to get hit the tables,
and a pop we will get. We got backstage. Christian
is cleaning Edges King of the Ring trophy before Shane
McMahon and Booker t walk up.
Speaker 2: I love the Christian King of the Ring trophy. Shit,
that's just awesome.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this was a good deal here where Christian was
just being an asshole and saying he also won the
King of the Ring.
Speaker 2: So yeah, Shannon Booker walk in and Shan says, Booker,
check this out, and Chris Sai's up, Christian Nights trophy. Listen,
we're here to talk about the w CIB Championship. You
have an opportunity to become WCB champion. And here's Booker T.
You won that bell five times and you know, no
one knows the Rock better than the Booker T. And
the Rock robbed Booker of the WCW title, and we
want to make sure that doesn't happen to you. So
we have a proposition tonight, Booker and I and the
interest of fairness. We'll go down to the ring and
make sure the whole match is fair. And when you do,
become WCB champion tomorrow and SmackDown Booker T your first
title defense, and Christian says, I can dig it, and Booker,
of course says his classic line.
Speaker 1: Do you smell what the book is? Cook it? The
crowd gives him huge booze for that.
Speaker 2: By the way, they do not fuck with that at all, dude. Yeah,
the Rock is a hero here in Toronto until WrestleMania,
of course, then it's Hogan.
Speaker 1: I mean that Hogan Rock match is crazy.
Speaker 3: Woooo.
Speaker 2: I mean that's uh. That might have been the first time,
as like a kid, that I saw something like that happen.
So yeah, Christian inhales and says I think that I do,
and chances all, I'm smelling it. And then Christian goes
back to wiping that thing down and he says, Goldige, Yeah, Goldige,
He's still a fucking dork.
Speaker 1: We head over to WWF New York where the WCW
United States Champion Canyon is here.
Speaker 2: Holy shit, Yeah, he's got the Invasion shirt on a
Liance MVP. That is so that is so fucking awesome, man,
it is. Kenyon maximized his minutes any time he was anywhere, Dude, like,
this guy was a valuable piece to me.
Speaker 1: Well, who better than Kenyon?
Speaker 2: If you don't mind answering for the worldwide audience, sir?
Who better than Kenyon? Actually, guys, I didn't want to
have to correct you. I've renamed the I thought this
is where he was going to say. He renams of
New York to WCW New York, but he says the
Alliance New York, which I think they missed the mark Heroldad.
But that's okay. He says, who better to be here
on a US holiday Labor Day than you're a US
champion Canyon? And my only regret is I can't be
there with the rest of the Alliance to give Stone
Cold his gift. So, Steve, when you finally get your
gift tonight, please just think who better than?
Speaker 1: That's the first thing you should think anything something good
happens to you. First thing you should think, who better
than Kenyon? WBTK excuse me? Who better? The Canyon?
Speaker 2: He says, No, No, I think who better than the Alliance? No, Steve,
I want you to think who better then you? Still,
because he wasn't Kenyon? This guy is awesome, man.
Speaker 1: I love that. When it was like panning away from
the shot, he says, nobody.
Speaker 2: He is so fucking good man.
Speaker 1: We go backstage. Stone Cold is here with Deborah watching
the show. Who was that? And I love his I
love his first response here is you hear what that
man said about me? That's right?
Speaker 2: Did you hear what that man said about me? At
first I thought it was like, oh, he doesn't know
who this is, okay.
Speaker 1: Which was super fucking funny. He's just sitting there with Deba.
Did you hear what that man said? You hear that?
Speaker 2: That's why Kenyon has a future in the Alliance, That's
why he's the US champion. And you know, someday, shan
ch ive take him under my wing. That dude, Canyon
being stone Cold second would have been awesome, by the way.
Speaker 1: It really would have. Yeah, that would have been pretty sweet.
Speaker 2: It would have been he like, he could have been
goddamn Austin's like Stevie Richards like, it would have been
awesome too. And yeah, so he says, shun day, you know,
since I'd taken him under my wing. He uh, he
looks at the dome BF title, Well, he ain't taking.
Speaker 3: This from Stone Cold with the kids out of your shirt.
That man has a future. And then the door opens
and Austin like shits himself. He jumps to his feet
and it's Stephanie.
Speaker 1: What the hell are you doing? Steph? You mind? Didn't you? Steph?
Barrel rolls through the fucking door here, I mean literally
like pops it open, Stone What the fuck. Was that?
What the hell are you doing? I love the way
that he responded here was, what the hell are you doing? Steph?

just so you know, I cannot even talk about this
match anymore because all I could think about is smart
Seohn Stasiac starts the match off here. He's the heel.
He hits a mean power slam here on Spike.
Speaker 2: He looks good.
Speaker 1: So Staziac lifts Spike up into the air here and
does the dropping military press.
Speaker 2: That's cool. I mean again, he's in great shape here.
He's got some power moves on him. You know, I
can I can dig it.
Speaker 1: So Spike gets down from a souplex here. He starts
firing up, but Stacy ends up tripping him. I thought
that was perfect, by the way.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the timing of Stacey there was was awesome.
Speaker 1: Here, Stacyac sends Spiked to the corner and goes for
a corner clothesline, but he fucking just trips over his
own feet in the center of the ring.
Speaker 2: Dude, Oh my god, Yeah, he's he actually is an idiot.
He's not a super genius.
Speaker 1: That is the gimmick. That's pretty good. I like that.
Speaker 2: That's fantastic, Dude. Even funnier, he trips himself while running
to Spike in the corner, and Haymon says, oh moll,
he just trips Stacey.
Speaker 1: She's like on the complete opposite side of the ring.
Speaker 2: She couldn't be any further from him and that Spike
hits the Dudley Dog. Great movie.
Speaker 1: He picks up the wind too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Dude Jr. Celebrated just like it's wrestling here.
There's a huge jump shot.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yes, Stacy comes in. She confront Spike after
the match here. Of course, this leads to Molly Holly
coming in and they have a little spot here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Molly gets in and Stacy goes for the Women's
special slat. Molly ducks in dexer, Molly sends her the buckle,
Molly hits the Razzle Dazzle and Stacy pulls Stacy outher
ring to make the save, and Hayman says, I told
you he's a super genius against Stacy away from the
bully of Dudleyville and is corrupt, mean spirited girlfriend dudley Ville,
the bully of Dudleyville and his corrupt, means spirited girlfriend
that didn't do anything.
Speaker 1: That's good man. We got backstage. Christian is back here.
When Edge walks up, he's the Inner Connill Champion and
he's talking him up for his big match tonight.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he says, hey, big night. Huh. He says, we've
been through a lot of strange things lately, but it's
still be totally awesome if you walked away with the
Golden Night in our hometown. Out just said it would
be awesome. I know you want to come out there
for support, but there's something I gotta do on my own.
It's something I gotta win on my own. And also,
I've been thinking this trophy belongs to you. And he
gives them the trophy and he says it says it
right here, Edge, you're the king of the Ring, not me,
doesn't say Christian, I don't know what I was thinking.
I'm sorry. But after I totally annihilate the Rock and
become the w CIT champion, you know, just because my
title might be a little more prestigiuous than Euros, we
can sy'll be brothers and it's Goldish time, and yeah,
it says shiit all right, good luck Edge, it says alrighty.
Then that's yeah. I mean I didn't realize what this
up like that this was on this episode. No I
didn't either, Yeah, which is a pretty big deal that
like kind of changes the trajectory of both their careers.
Speaker 1: We go backstage here, Perry Saturn is here talking to
somebody off camera.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Perry Saturn has a flyer in his hand that
looks like it has you know a bunch of letters
that were cut from different magazines to spell out stuff.
And Perry says, and then Commission to Regal gives me
this note. It's one hundred thousand dollars or I'll never
see Mappy again. Mobby's been kidnapped and I don't have
one hundred thousand dollars. And I know you're with the Alliance,
and I don't know what to do. I figured it
would be good at something like this, and please help
me find MOPy. And it pans over and it is
European Champion Hurricane.
Speaker 1: This is really early Hurricane too, no mask, he's got
the face paint and yeah he's the European Champion.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, And Hurricane says, So the kidnappers want one
hundred thousand dollars. He kind of talks like the rock
or one hundred grand if I'm not mistaken. Last week
on Raw was in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Seeing as the
kidnapper didn't leave a name. They want their identity to
be a secret or a mystery. And if my alphabet
skills are correct. Mystery starts with an M. M is
in mystery, EM is in MAPI m as in Matt Hardy.
What's up with that?
Speaker 1: Dude?
Speaker 2: I love?
Speaker 1: What's up with that?
Speaker 2: Perry says, are you saying Matt Hardy knows something about MOPy? Well,
my her senses are telling me that young Matt Hardy
is not what he seems to be. Good luck Citizen Saturn,
and then he just, I mean, he doesn't even try
to fly off screen. He legit just kind of jumps
to the side. We were super early here and Perry
Saturn in a frenzy, says you're welcome, and he runs off,
and Jr. Says what the hell was that about?
Speaker 1: Yeah, so Perry Saturn Mapy has been kidnapped. Yes, the
hurricane tells him it was Matt freaking Hardy. The hurricane
flies away, and Perry Saturn instantly without hesitation, You're welcome,
and Lee's.
Speaker 2: Didn't we like, didn't we just see like we watched
something where Terry stole MOPy.
Speaker 1: Or something and put it in the Woodschipper. We didn't.
Speaker 2: Actually, I don't think we've seen the wood Chipper one yet, though,
have we We got to see that that's an important
moment in wrestling.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it really is. We have the Rock
versus Christian w c W Championship match up next here.
Speaker 2: Yes, uh, but a first to Booker T and Shane
come out to the ring and Booker has a mic
and says, ladies and gentlemen, the following contests will be
for the w CW title. Oh oh, now he's a
ring announcer.
Speaker 1: He's doing a great job too.
Speaker 2: He can be whatever he wants to be. E j
are you bitch? Okay? Damn introduced it first, your special
guest ring announcer. He is none other than the five
time WW champion me Booker T and introducing the special

what's the guy who times the thing? The ref is timekeeper? Timekeeper? Oh, timekeeper.
Introduced to your special guest timekeeper for the evening. That
will be Shane McMahon. Shane's not here, probably wearing a watch.
And now the challenger. He's none other than your very
own Christian and Christian comes out to Edges theme he

fucking days.
Speaker 1: I mean, good lord, I love that his tron has
him acting as Elvis in it. Dude. It's like, here's Christian,
He's gonna challenge for the world title tonight.
Speaker 2: Will That's one of the big moments. And then Booker
of course introduces this so called w c W Champion,
the man who wishes he was more talented than the book,
a man the sucker who's gonna get his ass kicked
all over Toronto if you smel Here comes the Rock.
The Rock comes out and Shanan Booker surround the ring
and Booker jumps on the apron. The Rock goes after
him and Christian glombs from from behind.
Speaker 1: To start this match, we switch over to the war
Zone by the way, Oh shit, put the fucking kids
to bed, bitch. Booker distracts the Rock to his entrance,
Christian glombs and we get things started here. Uh sha
mcmhan kicks the rocks ass here on the outside. That
shit was funny.
Speaker 2: He is a little fucker man.
Speaker 1: The Rock kIPS up and he starts walking down Christian
until Christian hits a spinning heel kick. Here Booker slams
Rock into the announced table on the outside and Jim
Ross is screaming, hey, ref.
Speaker 2: Look, wait a minute, Raf, what the hey, and Hayman says,
don't you be going? Hey, ref? You pull that crap
in school? Hey, ref, this guy's cheating.
Speaker 1: Rock hits a SAMO and drop here for a double down.
Booker slides the belt in for Christian, but Rock ducks.
He hits the overhead, belly to belly and a DDT
for a two.
Speaker 2: All the Rocks classics here.
Speaker 1: Man Rock hits a spinebuster. He locks in that sharpshooter.
Aw booze, Well, I mean you just locked in the
sharp shooter. That's Brett's shit.
Speaker 2: Ain't Canada, dude, I didn't even fucking put that together?
All these shit?
Speaker 1: Yeah, hands off the merchandise. Rock, come on a Shan
McMahon pulls the ref Here, the Rock lets go of
the sharp shooter. He walks outside the ring and he
proceeds to kick Shane McMahon's ass. Dude.
Speaker 2: He does. The Rock punches the Shane and Shane legit,
jumps in the air and falls down like a crazy
bump on this.
Speaker 1: Booker distracts the Rock here, which allows Christian to hit
the reverse DDT for a two point nine. The crowd
bit hard here.
Speaker 2: Super hot crowd for that. Yeah, they want it that
so bad. I don't know how many matches Christian was
winning that at the time, but I think they just
wanted a reason it year.
Speaker 1: Rock hits the Rock bottom here and he beats Christian
and the crowd is neutral. Very cool moment, but also
fuck you Christian should have won. I know, I know.
Speaker 2: I mean they hit the Rocks music, so you don't
get to hear the crowds real reaction. I'm assuming there's
a lot more booze than I heard. H But the
Rocks tears down Booker who's on the outside, and he
tells him to just bring it, and Booker brings it.
He gets in the ring, he's fired up. Rock goes
after him and then Shane jumps Rock from behind and
they're stomping the Rock out and then the APA hit
the ring and Shane powders in the craziest way I've
ever seen anyone powder before. He runs out of the
ring and like the APA are so fast, they're about
to cut him off before he can get to the guardrail.
So Shane runs over the announced table and jumps over
the rail.
Speaker 1: It pays to have protection.
Speaker 2: It's fuck I love the APA, dude.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're dope, dude. Backstage segment here, Deborah and Stephanie
are outside Stone Cold's office or locker room or whatever
that's supposed to be on the phone.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Stephanie is on the phone and says, h mm hmm, great,
well you know what to do, see you soon, and
they both jump for joy, and Deborah opens the door
of the locker room and says, don't come out, so
what we tell you too, and they both leave. Sadly,
they didn't realize that's just incredible sitting in there, and
he was gonna come out anyway. He was not invited.
Speaker 1: Hell no, they have snacks here in Milk. We have
the Stephanie McMahon town Hall. Stephanie comes out to let
dumb bodies at bodies.
Speaker 2: I actually thought that was cool as fuck. I thought
the whole alliance was coming out. But no, this is
Stephanie's theme.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it has drowning pool man like drowning. So here's
the deal, man, this is crazy as fuck. They have
a lower third here drowning.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm glad you're saying this.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, dude, there's so much here. So Stephanie comes

has a lower third for Drowning Pool's new album Center.
It has a Drowning Pool Stephanie McMahon music video on
the trun Yes, oh my fucking god. Uh just you know,
completely nothing to do with w w F right now. Sure,

Speaker 1: So Stephanie comes out here with let the Bodies of
the floor and then tests her stand up routine for
some reason. Dude, what's the deal with Canadians?
Speaker 2: You Canadians?
Speaker 1: You are? You got the A? You say A? Why
you do that?
Speaker 2: Also, you guys celebrate Thanksgiving?
Speaker 1: What's that about? Where are the Canadian Pilgrims?
Speaker 2: Where are the pilgrims? You could at least celebrate it
on the right day.
Speaker 3: And another thing, and the Canadians are the laziest people

Speaker 2: That guy mega heat. Yeah. Wow, that shit was hilarious.
I mean it was the dude, it was legit like
the easiest thing ever. Yeah, you guys are lazy. America's
better and you guys are weirdest shit.
Speaker 1: Uh So, Stephanie introduces stone called Steve Austin here and
he comes out with his Alliance theme song.
Speaker 2: Dude, this song is hard as fuck.
Speaker 1: I love this theme song. It's got the distorted glass break.
Speaker 2: Yes, Oh it's awesome. And Stephanie said, Steve, this is
a proud moment for me and is for the Alliance
and your wife Deborah. Without further ado, let me show
you surprise a brand new truck.
Speaker 1: I want a truck. Oh my god, A.
Speaker 2: Truck is outside, and then for the next five whole minutes,
Deborah describes every part of this truck to a very
quiet audience in like, I would love to know that,
like the minute by minute of this segment. This had
to fucking make people tune out. This is insane what
I was watching here.
Speaker 1: My favorite part here was it kept cutting back to
Steve Austin and he's standing in the ring just smiling huge.
Speaker 2: Fig Smiley's like trying to find something to say to Stephanie.
I mean, she goes over every part of this, the mirrors,
the antenna, the fucking the.
Speaker 1: Paint. Dude, Okay that shit, have me die? And Devera
points to the bed of the truck and says, and
we got the six foot pickup truck parts.
Speaker 2: You put all your beer and animals in there. Okay, right, theo.
Speaker 1: Oh that was of you?
Speaker 3: Well, why don't you come out of the ring and
take your sweet little wife here on a ride and
your new truck.
Speaker 2: So that's what Austin does. Him and Stephanie leave and
they head to the back, and the crowd is befuddled.
They cannot understand what is happening. So Debra's wiping the
truck down. As we get to the back in Austin
and Stephanie walk up.
Speaker 1: It's beautiful. I love it. Devra's wiping down the truck
and she says, I got all those scratches buffed out,
the new truck with the scratches prey installed, like she
drove us through the woods to get it here, all right,
sucked it up.
Speaker 2: How to test it off?
Speaker 1: Rude?
Speaker 2: You know, to make sure it was good. You guys
shouldn't have. I'm glad you did, but you shouldn't have.
I'm gonna put a stone cold license plate right here
on it. I love the white leather weight letter tires.
He opens the door, he's filling the interior. He goes
to the back. He opens up the bed and he
climbs inside and he's jumping around on the back like
a little kid. And he looks at him. Hey, you
you remember that movie Titanic.
Speaker 1: Big pot from the crowd too, Hell yeah, yeah, they
know what's coming.
Speaker 2: So he walks off. He's at the front of the
bed or the back whatever you described. As he's against
the car and he puts his arms up.
Speaker 1: I'm the kick of the world.
Speaker 2: Kurt Angle jumps out a door busts open, he jumps
out from a fucking side truck, and he smashes Stone
cold in the back of the head with a big
ass pipe.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, horright, fuck god.
Speaker 2: That was insane, dude, Like he nailed them with this thing.
Dude also had this super prepared. He puts a cinderblock
with chains all on on the back and closes the
bed and Kurt says, oh, you're going for a ride, Austin,
but you're going with me. Kurt gets in the truck
and kidnaps Stone called Steve Austin in the middle of
the show.
Speaker 1: Dude, he skids out the fucking parking lot. That shit
had me dying laughing.
Speaker 2: Bro.
Speaker 1: Kurt Angle got in the truck.
Speaker 2: Sayde wow, it made that exact fucking sound.
Speaker 1: You're right. Oh yeah, man, yeah, I mean I hear
that every single night outside my house three am.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's true.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this was awesome. Like I said, I remember this
whole deal very vividly. This was a big part of
wrestling for me when I was a kid. So uh yeah,
I was super locked in and Kurd Angle kidnapped Steve
Austin is so fucking funny, and it leads to like
the funniest thing ever at the end of the show.
Speaker 2: I'm the King of the World is like fucking unreal.
Austin is such a goofball.
Speaker 1: So we go to Matt Hardy and Lita versus Ivory
and the Hurricane up next.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we get a little recap of I think last
week on Raw it was Ivory attacked Leada's leg with
a crow bar and then Matt went to grab her
from inside the ring as she was outside in ivery
dex Matt with the crowbar, which led to Hurricane hitting
the eye of the hurricane. I don't think he has
a name yet, but Hurricane did win the Intercon Intercon
European title this way. Uh so that's that brings us
to this and of course James stand up Beck there's
a hurricane coming through wanmam.
Speaker 1: Remix. What the fuck?
Speaker 2: This is crazy, dude.
Speaker 1: I actually liked this theme song a lot.
Speaker 2: It's I mean, it's it's ridiculous. His tron is insane.
It's him flying past Statue of Liberty, Dude.
Speaker 1: That is so funny. I like all of this. Actually
like this presentation of the Hurricane too, where it's a
little more low key Yeah, it was awesome. I liked it.
Speaker 2: The version of the Hurricane that exists when he fucks
with the rock is like great too. But like I
love this, like we're not in on the joke yet.
Speaker 1: Thing, Like he still felt like a wrestler here. Yeah,
he feels a lot more like a character, which you know.
I mean, it's over and it works, and I have
a lot of hard memories with the Hurricane when he
becomes that character, But he still feels like a wrestler
that would be wrestling on the show here. And yeah,
I don't know. There was just something to this. I
was like, wow, I like this. It felt stripped down,
there's a charm. It was dope.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Jr. Said how long you think before you guys
in the line she get this man from counseling what
he thinks she's a superhero?
Speaker 1: Well, well he is.
Speaker 2: He's the European Champion. Oh she'll being a European Champion
makes you a superhero. Well, if Matt Hardy were to
win the title, beck I would say he's a superhero.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Hurricane is already over. He's got signs, he's got chance.
I mean that's crazy.
Speaker 2: That's very quick, dude, I mean he they they especially
here on this show, like they want him to win
this match. He's the fucking heel.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So we get started here. Matt Hardy cuts himself
off with the moon sawt. I love that him and
Hurricane just went for it here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, you know, I imagine these two have
wrestled each other fifteen hundred times in the backyard, so.
Speaker 1: Dude, you're right. I mean, like they were doing the
Omega deal togain.
Speaker 2: O Mega represent hell.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Lida hits a scorpion death drop for a double down. Here,
Matt comes in off the hot tag, hits his comeback.
Ivory comes in, but Lida tackles her. Here we go
back to Matt Hardy and Hurricane. Matt hits the well.
He goes for the leg drop on Hurricane. Yes, but
Perry Saturn runs down and pulls him off the top
to talk. I've never seen that pulls him off the
top to talk, right.
Speaker 2: I thought he was gonna like jaw jackham right, like
give him the hangar.
Speaker 1: But no.
Speaker 2: The ref was attractive, of course, because Ivory and Lida
were fighting in the ring and Perry discusses Matt Hardy
off the ropes and that leads to Hurricane hitting a
running kne to Matt from behind and bumps Perry off
the apron, and then he hits the eye the Hurricane
on Matt once again to get the win. And then
after the match, Perry Saturn wants to talk to the Hurricane,
of course, because he's like, what the fuck what? He literally,
what's up with that? And he points with Matt and
Hurricane just offers him handshake and Perry goes to Perry
takes it and then fucking clothes lines the shit out.
Speaker 1: Of the HR. Dude, come on, dude, don't do this, dude.
Speaker 2: Belly to belly Hurricane Hurricane rolls out and dude, for okay,
one thing, Perry Saturn is huge, Yes, dude, he is.
Speaker 1: He's like the King of Souplex is here. Sorry, daz one.
Speaker 2: The belly to belly was cool, and Perry side looks huge. Two.
Hurricane is selling on the outside, but he's still holding
his hands on his hips in the superhero pose as
he leaves. Dude.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think JR. Even mentions it. He's like, look
he's got the pose.
Speaker 2: Yeah that is I mean, Hurricane he was going for it, dude,
he wanted to keep his job.
Speaker 1: Should have hit this motherfucker with the vertebraker. I wonder
has he ever talked about that, Like did he come
to WWF and they were just like, no, fuck away,
no way, dude.
Speaker 2: He definitely does it, like I don't know if he
does it on raw or what the deal was. I
swear he done it. He did it early, but yeah,
it had.
Speaker 1: To have been.
Speaker 2: They were like, oh, fuck that, like if you want it, like, no,
top guy's taking that, so you might want to fucking
figure it out. And he was doing the sugar smack
right the super Cake can't do that here either.
Speaker 1: Sorry, Yeah, that's just Incredibles deal.
Speaker 2: That's Landstorm's deal, that's Stephen Richard's deal, that's Shawn Michael's deal.
You can't do it here, that's deal. Just just not you, buddy,
I'm sorry, just not.
Speaker 1: Just not happening.
Speaker 2: That's funny as ship.
Speaker 1: We got backstage here, Christian is staring into space as
Edge walks up and uh, Edge tries to tell him,
hey man, you did good tonight.
Speaker 2: Yeah he's sulking, and uh he says, you give your
best Edge says, you give your best shot and maybe
afternight we can and Landstorm walks up and says, nice
job loser.
Speaker 1: Dude, that was so funny. Holy shit, hey man, you
did good Tonight. Landstorm walks up.
Speaker 2: Great job loser, dude, he's so his voice is like
so stern. Nice job loser. You're almost as big of
a loser as this city. At least you're keeping a
shriek alive. Toronto lost its bit in the Olympics. You
lost your match edge. You're gonna make it three for
three when you lose the intercindal title. To me later tonight,
nothing good ever came out of Toronto. Know this place sucks, dude.
Speaker 1: You have a great Lance Storm.
Speaker 2: I mean he's super stern dude. Yeah, Like, you're almost
pick of a loser as this city, he says. Tonight
and show tonight, you're gonn gonna have to worry about
any off beeat Shenanigans because I'm gonna straight up kick
your ass. And Lance says, yeah, we'll see about that.
Speaker 1: That says, yeah, we will. And Christian is.
Speaker 2: Still staring into space. He's, uh, he's not too sure.
Speaker 1: What's the next little disassociating man. I mean everyone goes
through it.
Speaker 2: He heard that TNA was about to start, and he
was thinking about all the things he could do there,
like win the title.
Speaker 1: Face Serotonin.
Speaker 2: Holy fuck, I mean listen, come on now, give Serotonin
some credit. They had my main Kaz, they had my man.
Speaker 3: Uh, Billy Foves, Johnny Divine, Johnny Divine, Havoc.
Speaker 2: He was just Havoc. It was just Havoc.
Speaker 1: Yeah. For some reason, Johnny Divine's name to me was
Billy Five's for like twenty seconds, player like, I couldn't
think of anybody else but Billy Fives.
Speaker 2: That's so funny, what a good idea theory.
Speaker 1: We go backstage. Deborah is on the phone trying to
tell the police what happened. So Stephanie grabs the phone
and says, okay, listen, Canadian police.
Speaker 2: Which is how you have to address them here.
Speaker 1: That is so fucking funny. Holy shit.
Speaker 2: They should have had a Canadian on the other side,
South Park style with the big bubble heads with the.
Speaker 1: Mouth going up and down.
Speaker 2: Here, not one Terrence and Philip reference on the show
at all.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, right, I guess we had to wait
five more years for them to reference Kenny dying.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, oh great, that's fucking great. So Stafa, he says,
you have to listen carefully. It was a black pickup truck.
It was a gift for stone Cold Steve Austin. She's
telling the cops this. His name is stolen Cold Steve Austin.
Krodangle ambushed Austin from behind and drove away. It was
a kidnapping. Then somebody says, oh my god, look.
Speaker 1: It was Rhydo it was Ryder. I swear to god
it was Rhyana. Oh my god, look I swear it
was Rhino. It could have not been. My first instinct
was holy fuck Rhino. Definitely, SA should have said motherfucker's Look.
They all turn and look at the CRT and it's
kurd Angle pulling up somewhere. So Kurt that we get there.
Wait wait, wait, wait wait wait what TV?
Speaker 3: Were they watching? What's happening? They just have the Alliance CRT.
That ship is so fucking this feed.
Speaker 1: They're looking at the TV and Kurt Angles getting out
the truck with kidnap Steve Austin. As we're watching the show.
What the hell?
Speaker 2: They have the kurd Angle surveillance camera that we now
get to tap into as well directly on the show. Wow,
thank you for showing us Like WWF camera people found this.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know how they played this off, but
uh whatever, you know, it doesn't matter. Fuck, it's cool.
Speaker 2: So Kurt goes to the back of the truck and says,
actually ride Austin. Hope it wasn't too bumpy for you.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 2: Also other question, James, on top of how are we
seeing this? At what point did Kurt angle stop and
get out of the truck and blindfold and chained Steve Austin?
Speaker 1: Well that was just about halfway to where they were going.
Speaker 2: Or did Austin do that to himself or the stuff
is in the back, like in the bed of the
truck and he was rolling around so much that it
just kind of tangled him up that way.
Speaker 1: All right, Steve, he's trying to play a game. Oh no,
holy fuck.
Speaker 2: So Kurt says that little son you pulled last week
throwing my gold medals over a bridge. You think I
could ever forgive you for that? And he's dragging Austin
out of his fucking truck says, you know what, asctounts,
how you what inspired me to do something special for you?
Speaker 1: It's over, man, Take the change off. Dude. I love
that he didn't like cover his mouth or anything. He
just had his mouth open his eyes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Kurt says, I spent two days here in Toronto
trying to find the perfect location for you. Holy shit, Kurt, Yeah,
to find a spot to kill stone cold. What are
you talking about? He said, I'll show you what I'm
talking about. He grips Austin up and he drags him
out the truck. He drags him over to a bridge
and he takes his blindfolt off and Austin immediately starts panicking.
Speaker 1: Ah gent.
Speaker 2: And Chrit says, you see that, Austin.
Speaker 1: Just think about this. You see that, Austin looks like
my animal crossing saved on at Austin, look at that
good river. Huh No, I'm playing Pa GOPI.
Speaker 2: Kurt says, you think it's funny throw my gold batters
over a bridge. I'm sorry, Kurt says, what, I'm sorry?
Speaker 1: What I'm sorry? You hurt me? I'm sorry. He slaps
the back of his head.
Speaker 2: The crowd laughs out loud at that too. Chris says,
I'm gonna do the same thing to you. I'm gonna
do the same thing to you. That you did to
my gold medals. And he fucking grabs Austin. He's gonna
throw him over the bridge. He's going to kill stone cold,
and stone cold just as he is about to die, yells.
Speaker 1: You crazy son of a bitch.
Speaker 2: Ah, God damn it, Gert Card Okay, got you, bitch.
Speaker 1: Goddamn stop.
Speaker 2: And Kurt stops.
Speaker 1: You don't want to do this. You don't want to
do this. I promise, I'm.
Speaker 2: Sorry, and Kurt Kurt stops, and Austin starts to calm down.
Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 2: Kurt says, you're absolutely right. I don't want to do this.
You're right. I don't know what I was thinking. This
bridge isn't nearly high enough. Let's go for a ride.
Speaker 4: Whoakurt, you bitch, you fucking motherfucker.
Speaker 2: And he drags him back. You can only hear like
the clanging of the fucking chains and shit is he
drags him to the truck because we only look at
the shot of the bridge, and I guess he is
taking him somewhere else.
Speaker 1: Jr. Says, I hope Kurt Angle doesn't do something that
he will regret for the rest of his natural life.
Speaker 2: What is natural life? Well, Jr. Your friends, stone Cold
is going to die.
Speaker 1: Oh no, I hope not.
Speaker 2: They're going to kill him.
Speaker 1: Here on raw, we have Lance Storm versus Edge Inner
Cottineal Championship match here.
Speaker 2: By the way, just before that they showed the Alliance.
They were all obviously concerned about Stonecold's kidnapping and what
was gonna happen to him. And Stephanie's there and she says,
we are y'all just standing there. Somebody somebody go do
something and they all rush out of the room. Is
Stephanie's freaking out? What the fuck are they gonna do? Well,
they know, I go. You know what, Maybe to your
point earlier, James, maybe they know where the WF Bridge is.
Speaker 1: Dude, it's the same one. Yeah, they do know where
it is.
Speaker 2: They know where to go.
Speaker 1: So we started this match off here. Edge comes in
for his entrance. He takes the buckle for his pop
and lance Storm glombs them from behind.
Speaker 2: Son of a bitch. This, by the way, good match.
Speaker 1: I like this match. Lance Storm hits the air pillman
for a two here. That was good. Storm hits a
jawbreaker and somebody had like a trumpet or something in
the crowd. I don't know what that happened, darre I
don't know what happened.
Speaker 2: It was the clown under the ring that they squashed.
Speaker 1: So Edge hits a double line here into a spinning
heel kick for two. He follows it up with the
edge of Maatic for a two.
Speaker 2: The didn't even call it. I don't even I don't
even know if they called it the edge of Maatic.
I don't know if that was, like, not an established
thing yet. But I mean that sticks with them forever.
Speaker 1: It does, Yeah, it does, And I like the move.
It's cool.
Speaker 2: I do too.
Speaker 1: Storm goes for the Stephen kick here, but Edge grabs
his leg.
Speaker 2: That's the sugarspack. Fucky, what's the respect over here?
Speaker 1: That is the Fote kick.
Speaker 2: That's the goddamn swit shit music.
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, that's one half of X Marks
the Spot.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, nobody knows what that is. Nobody knows
what that is.
Speaker 1: Somebody knows the X marks the Spot is.
Speaker 2: Come on, somehow I knew what it was, which is
really I mean, that's pathetic.
Speaker 1: Edge goes for the educution here, but Lance Storm chop
blocks him and locks in a single leg crab.
Speaker 2: This combo is a main event combo. This is a
fucking finished chop block single leg crab. This is where
champions are fucking made.
Speaker 1: That'll win you a couple of titles somewhere.
Speaker 2: God damn yes it will, Yes, it will.
Speaker 1: Edge makes it to the ropes here he's able to
roll Lance Storm up quickly and picks up the wind.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean cool pin a little flashpin. I don't
know because this is actually like the same exact finish
of the next match as well, So I don't know
if maybe they didn't talk or one of these got
cut short and they had to kind of do something,
but I like this finish. He was sucking his leg up,
his leg was obviously like shit, and he had to
do what he could to get a pinfall.
Speaker 1: Storm immediately drop kicks Edges leg and grass chair sick,
fuck you and Toronto buddy.
Speaker 2: Yeah get fucked, and he's about to kill him until
Christian runs down with a chair to save his brudda,
And you know they just made amends, so Christian is
here to save him. Edge gets to his feet and
Christian checks on him, and they hug and Christian goes
and he grabs a trophy for Edge. And he gives
it back to him in a nice moment here and Edges,
you know, obviously hurting with his leg and boy, oh boy,
Christian hits him so hard in the head with this chair.
What a goddamn shot.
Speaker 1: Has betrayed his own flesh and blood. That's his brother.
What the fuck? What the fuck is wrong with you?
You're not the kick of the ring. You're a brone.
What are you doing. You're killing a hot act.
Speaker 2: You're killing a hot act, you fucking idiot.
Speaker 1: He's in a SmackDown six and you or not. Get
out of the ring. Go to Chne, go to GNI.
Speaker 2: Now, dude, Christian nails him with his chair.
Speaker 1: He does, man, great shot. I mean you had to
lay it in there, yes, because it's a big angle
with a big pivot point here. Had to go for it.
Speaker 2: Christian grabs a trophy and eels. He says, you did
this to me. He's already blaming Edge for him, turning
on Edge. He picks up the trophy, he kisses it,
and he throws it on Edge's stomach, and then we
see the one man concerto. Great visual they cut this great,
made a cool sound. Crowd goes ho shit, he killed
Edge here. This is awesome, great fucking job here, dude.
Speaker 1: I love the one man Concerto me too. I'm also
an advocate here that the one man Concerto should take
you out for a substantial amount of time.
Speaker 2: I think I don't know why they didn't. The one
man Concerto should have been as like you're dead as
the Orton punt.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Like, this is like when I saw this growing up,
I thought he died. I legit thought he killed it.
Speaker 2: It's insane. It's an insane fucking move. Like the the
concerto alone is crazy, right, but this you are getting
your head smashed into smithereens. This is disgusting. This should
be a kill move.
Speaker 1: Even if you're not out for a substantial amount of time,
there should be some like character withdrawal. There should be
something that happens where like your character now has taken
like a beating and needs time to figure out what's next.
It's insane.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is a killer fucking move, man, I love it.
I love this whole turn. I was super excited we
got to see this turn here. Actually I didn't know
that this was this episode. By the way, I do
want to know by the way. They kept multiple times
saying when he was doing stuff, Jr. Was like, well,
this mestro is a madman. Where did this meistro thing
come from? Is that from the concerto thing?
Speaker 1: Oh? I have no idea.
Speaker 2: And then well I was like, meestro, because then he
gets the theme that he gets. I didn't know if
that came from this or like where this whole deal?
But the Meestro thing, I didn't know if there was
something I was missing.
Speaker 1: Well, we know he's got that theme song coming. So
he's the my stro.
Speaker 2: Now, oh man, we shine the Maestro. That's the Mystro.
The Maestro had quite a run in WSW.
Speaker 1: You know, I don't watch that product. They fired me.
You know.
Speaker 2: He was also gorgeous George. Holy fuck, there really was
a lot of gorgeous George is.
Speaker 1: What the fuck? And now we have the main event
of the night, rv D and Rhino versus Jeff Hardy
and Chris Jericho. So RVD comes up here with the
hardcore title, Oh my god, looks awesome. He's the man.
I love this singlet.
Speaker 2: Yes, dude, he is so fucking cool. Man.
Speaker 1: It's got the bones on it. Man, This shit is
so cool.
Speaker 2: So here we see that two weeks ago, RVD and
Jeff had a return match. That's a term they're using
a lot here, by the way, return match, which I like.
I don't know when this stops being used, but I
did enjoy that. So they had a return match with
the Hardcore title on SmackDown and Jeff on the top
of a ladder outside the ring went to Swanton. Rvady
throw a table. Rready moved and Jeff died, and that's
why he was gone for two weeks, which I thought
was cool. I like that, but there's a chance he
also was like shoot banged up, so you know, uh,
but this is Jeff's return against doctors' orders.
Speaker 1: James, dude, he missed the Swan time bomb and like
the table blew to smithereens it gets obliterated.
Speaker 2: This like it might as well. He just went right
to the floor.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he jumps off the top of this fucking ladder
and like, no one's hold him the fucking ladder or anything.
It's shaken all over the place. No, he just takes
one table and blows it to smitherly. One.
Speaker 2: It wasn't like a double table setup or anything yet.
One table and it splits and I'm like, it's insane,
like it had. I don't know how this guy is alive.
I'll be honest with you.
Speaker 1: It was so fucking awesome though.
Speaker 2: It was cool as fuck, dude, Like it's so fucking sick.
Speaker 1: Yeah. They have a great shot of Jericho's entrance here
that goes from him on the tron down to him
on the stage. They timed that up very well.
Speaker 2: I love that. I also like Jerco shirt here, the
Y two J in the barb wire That was cool.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's got the purple barbed wire pants on two
very cool RVD and Jericho start off with the International.
That leads to an inzigiary from Jericho. Earl Hebner's the
referee and they're chanting, you screwed Brett.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, dude, see you are way more locked
in with this Canada shit. Dude, I knew that you
screwed Brent, and I was like, oh, okay, they just
want to get their Brett shit off. I wasn't even
thinking about Earl Hebner.
Speaker 1: That makes I do it again. Screw your mother too.
Speaker 2: He should have turned him and gave him a little
fuck you, cronch chops fucking.
Speaker 1: Jeff Hardy pulls RVD off the second and screams, tarrone
tone does the leg drop between the legs, big fucking pomp.
Jeff Hardy hits a swanton on RVD and fucking crushes him.
I mean, oh my da god, he crunched the shit
out of him.
Speaker 3: Here.
Speaker 2: I mean we're still on the ra where Jeff is,
you know, full sending that too, and he lands all
on him and I like that he did like the RVD.
Oh shit, that hurt me.
Speaker 1: So yeah, they get a double down out of it, actually.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I was like, wow, this is really early
on to be doing that. But I was like, okay,
there is more here. And then Rhino fucking gives him
the old souplex onto the ropes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Rhino comes in, he hits Jeff with the belly
to belly. He sets up for the gore. Here he
goes for the gore, but Jeff Hardy falls and Rhino
eats the buckle. They have a great camera shoy here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he eats it crazy. I like Jeff dropping down,
like the timing list is really well. And then we
get a double tag out and Jericho house a fire.
Speaker 1: Yeah. RVD comes in, Jericho rolls him through into the
walls of Jericho here. I love that. Yeah, every time
he does it, especially in this area, it's always just
so cool.
Speaker 2: It was what like rvdy going for like a kitchen
sink and he kind of like rolls through as if
he's going for like a schoolboy, but he gets him
in the walls. Yeah, that's fucking so awesome.
Speaker 1: Rhino gets on the apron, Jericho hits the triangle dropkick
to send him to the floor. Yes, he tells Jeff Hardy,
come on, so Chris, Jericho shits down on all fours here.
Jeff Hardy runs, he jumps off Jericho's bag. Oh my god,
and I swear to god. He almost crashes and burns,
but he gets over the ropes and he lands on Rhino.
Fantastic shot.
Speaker 2: It's like he got too much air and he was
like getting lost and landed like he lands like he
jumps forward and lands back first on Rhino. I don't
know how to explain this. It's a crazy visual RVD.
Speaker 1: In the ring follows up, he hits the rolling lightning
the handstand moon.
Speaker 2: Yes, I forgot that's what that name was called. That
move is called that is what I want to sick name.
Speaker 1: Jericho rolls RVD through with a victory roll and he
picks up the win. Yeah. I this kind of came
out of nowhere. I don't know if this was again
like a time thing. They needed more time for Devra
later in the ending town hall.
Speaker 2: Dude, Okay, so there might be credence to that, and
I'll explain once we get to the rest of the
other because there is an explanation for the events that
happened there. But yeah, RVDY or sorry, Jericho gets to
roll through and gets the win. Fun match. I love
all four of these guys. I can't say enough how
much I think Rhino also should have got more in
WWF WWE. I thought he was fucking awesome, But them's
the breaks I did like him in TNA, so I'll
take that.
Speaker 1: We go backstage. Kurt Angle now has Steve Austin on
a huge bridge.
Speaker 2: He's walking Austin, who is blindfolded and chained up across
a sidewalk, and Kurt says, I should have went with
my gut instincts. You're not so tough now are you.
Let me show you what I'm talking about. Austin, and
of course, once again, he takes a blind hole off,
and now Stone Cold is staring over an even higher
bridge and he's going to die.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this reminds him of the Rock. Throw him over,
go to Hell. I've been here before. Cart I don't
want to go to hell. I don't want to. Why
he was so scared like this is like the only
person that would be super scared of this, because like
other people would be like, no way, Kerdigle was gonna
do this, but I'm sure Stone Cold felt the Rock
wasn't gonna do it.
Speaker 3: Either, TSD Yeah right, yeah shit. So he takes the
blindfold off and all that shit, and Kurt says, I
got you. You ain't going anywhere.
Speaker 1: Wooh.
Speaker 2: He's like teasing throwing him over, and he says, don't worry,
You're not going over, not just yet. Look at that
two hundred feet I imagine what that's gonna feel like.
And Austin says, cart Card, if that's just about the
gold medals, I'll go back and get him.
Speaker 1: Take the change off. I'll go and get him. I'm
so sorry.
Speaker 2: I didn't want to do it in the first place.
And Kurt throws a fake throwing him over, and also going, oh,
I got your metals back, I'll get him back. Kurtz says,
you know what, Austin, I think it's too late for that.
They say, your life flashes before your eyes the second
before you die. And you know what, Austin, You're You're
not gonna throw me. Oh no, I'm not gonna throw
you over. But I'll tell you what. I'm gonna give
you a couple of minutes to think about it. And
he puts the blindfold back on. I want you to
think about begging. I want you to beg you know what.
I want you to think about crying. Oh yeah, I
want you to think about crying, Austin. And if you don't,
I'm gonna throw you over faster then you threw my
gold medals went over last week. Oh it's true. This time,
the truth's gonna hurt. So we're watching a man live
on TV threatened to kill another man via throwing him
over the bridge. No cops called the well, I guess
the cops were called. The cops don't care. The cops
do not give a fuck about the situation.
Speaker 1: We got back to the ring. Oh my god, and
now it's time oh my god, for the Deborah town hall.
Speaker 2: You know how I was talking earlier about how the
truck thing was weird. I thought they were trying to
just do that again because this is bad.
Speaker 1: Okay, let me talk about this real quickly. So my
first thought was, Wow, they did not give her any
fucking lines here. This is crazy, dude, Like they didn't
tell her to do anything. They had no idea what
to tell her. I thought it was a rib or
something like a rib.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, like they threw her to the wolves, like
Austin is not there or whatever, and they're like fucking
They're like, oh, that's like rib Deborah.
Speaker 1: My second thought here was Okay, they're trying to eat
up as much time as possible so people will tune
in to see what happens here.
Speaker 2: I thought, okay, So my third list of things here
I was like, Okay, whatever they're doing with Kurt and Austin,
they have not set up yet, Like something went wrong
and they are stalling for time because Austin and Kurt
aren't ready.
Speaker 1: They don't have enough water.
Speaker 2: They are trying to figure out the kiddie pool and
they just can't figure it out. That's what I was
thinking so, and I will explain what happens as well
once we'll get to the end here. So we're in
the arena. Debra's in the ring and she's pleading. She says, Kurt,
if you can hear me, I'm bagging you. Please, please
don't throw Steve over that two hundred foot bridge. And
I know Steve hasn't been nice to you. He just
threw your medals over the bridge. They could be replaced,
but Steve can't be which is a great line, by
the way, I will give her that this is a
great line. And this actually wouldn't have been so bad
if they didn't fuck this up. Please, she's pleading, and
then there's like you can hear rustling on the headset
and jarishs, oh, well, I guess Paul's going up there. Okay,
Haymon goes onto the apron and he's telling her to
calm down, and he tells her to calm down for
a really long time, and I'm like, Okay, Hayman's gonna
do like a pep talk for Deborah. And he has
a phone, because of course he does. He's poly dangerously
and it's a it's like a really awkward amount of time,
and I'm like, Okay, whatever the fuck is going on here?
They're trying to figure something out. Hayman now has a mic.
He takes the mic from Deborah and he says, do
you see the mic stops working? We're a wide shot
facing the tron forever, like for a super long, like
for so long that Jr. Explains the entire arc of
this angle and what's happened tonight on commentary.
Speaker 1: The long angle shot caught me off guard.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's forever, dude, like one still shot forever,
no one talking.
Speaker 1: JR. Trying to fucking get through this angle. On the mic.
Speaker 2: You can now see Lillian Lillian Garcia, the ring anouncer,
go over to Hayman and give him another mic, which
isn't working. Then a producer walks up up to them
and they're just all talking, and the crowd's like, what
the fuck boo boo? Right, Yeah, I don't have I've
never seen something like this on WWF.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, it goes to the commercial and comes back
and they do the segment over again entirely, So I
wonder like, yeah, I wonder like if they were just like, oh,
we fuck that up, let's try it again, or oh,
we have more time than we thought something like that.
Speaker 2: You know, right, So dude, yeah, you're right. So Hayman
does have a new mic here before the commercial break,
and he starts going off. He says, first of all,
shut the hell off, you sick Canadians. This woman is
distraught and you're standing there chanting. Now, each and every
one of you are gonna show Deborah the respect she deserves.
Or I'm personally gonna teach each and every one of
you a lesson. I'm gonna kill you. I'm gonna kick
the fucking shit out of all you. And if one
more person shows sympathy for turd Angle, you're gonna have
a problem with the Alliance. Shut up, shut up now.
Speaker 3: And then we go to commercial and yes, James says,
we come back. Deborah legit does the entire promo over.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so she does do the whole promo over like,
she literally does it almost word for a word. Yeah,
please don't throw Steve off that two hundred foot cliff.
Speaker 2: Yeah you can't replace him, Yeah right, he's he's you know,
you can replace your metals and you can't replace him.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 2: Yo, Yeah, I heard this, Deborah, What the fuck, Kurt,
I know.
Speaker 1: You think he's a piece of trash. Wait a minute
on on what what what she said about me?
Speaker 2: I know everyone hates stone Cold and they want him
to die. Hey, what is a real second? What the
hell's on?
Speaker 1: Heeople really think that?
Speaker 2: So then the show on the tron, Kurt is standing
so close to Austin's face, He is so close to
his face with Austin unfolded, and then we just shut
Devra's feed off. We don't even hear her anymore.
Speaker 1: No, all yeah, So.
Speaker 2: Kurt is standing there in front of Austin. He says,
all right, you had enough time to think about it. Now,
let's hear it. Beg for me, and Austin kind of
slowly shakes his head. Come on, Austin, beg. I'm sorry,
I'm sorry, it's all it's all big misunderstanding. I didn't
mean to steal what. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to
take your gold medals. I know they mean more to you.
What I know they mean more to you than anything

so pathetic, you're so pathetic and begging, I want you
to cry, cry for me, Austin, come on, I can't cry. Cry, Austin,
I can't cry. Kurt grabs his face and Austin says,
A right, I'll cry. H curtis.
Speaker 1: Sorry, sorry, go on and cry. I'm sorry he is
a person.
Speaker 2: Fucking cry like this?
Speaker 1: A jackass the best one. Holy shit, I didn't need
a fish off I should have done.

Speaker 1: You got it, you got it?
Speaker 2: What you want?

Speaker 2: I want Pittsburgh, Pa, my hometown. We talked about this

Speaker 2: You can't do this, so Austin.

Speaker 2: I give it you what you want.
Speaker 4: D James off me and let me go. Let me go,
let me go, I can if you want, you want.
Oh no, you're still going in the water.
Speaker 2: So Kurt shoves him backwards and Austin falls into a
kiddie pool. I don't know where this came from. It
wasn't in the bed of the truck. How he got
the fucking water, Like Kurt really put this together well,
and Austin falls into this He's crawling around in it.
You son up a bitch, You stupid son of a bitch.
I'm gonna get you. He's like falling out of the
fucking He's soaked.
Speaker 1: Austin is chained up. What he is waddling around in
the Toronto Street bridge. Goddamnit, Card, son of a bitch.
Speaker 2: What the hell?
Speaker 1: Card, Give me the case, Give me the case, Cart,
I dave you what you want to. Let me go.
Speaker 2: Eventually he rolls out of the pool and he's just
rolling around in a puddle on the bridge.
Speaker 1: He's just waddling around, just water everywhere. Fuck, what do
I do? What do I do?
Speaker 2: Cart? Give me the case, Give me the case, you
son of a bitch. It's so fucking funny this visual.
Kurt sorry, Austin rolling around the water, Kurt drives up
with the truck, he slows down, he stops, and he's son.
Speaker 1: Of a bitch. I at jud It's like one of
the end of Hoffman's traps where you can't smike. God,
I did what you wanted, and it's doing like the
slow head turn pan up. Holy holy shit, Oh my.
Speaker 2: God, someone needs to fucking do that. Put the end
of this with Kurt pulling up and leaving and put
game over and he drives off and oh my god,
please do that.
Speaker 1: Holy ship.
Speaker 2: This version of stone Cold, like Kurt was already kind
of you know, made like he was a main eventor
but this made Kurt angle like top baby.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes it did.
Speaker 2: This is fucking fantastic. It's so fucking funny. Austin is
super down to look like a complete idiot. Uh, this
is this is great. This is great work man. I listen,
the more we watch of Invasion stone Cold, the more
I think everyone else was the problem. It wasn't Stone Cold,
it was everything else. Yeah, step up, you gotta fucking
step up. The rest of the show is the problem.
Heel stone Cold did not kill this company. It was
everybody else. It was me.
Speaker 1: It was me, Austin. It was me the whole time, Austin.
Speaker 2: So I do want to say this part here, James,
before we wrap this up. From The Observer, September tenth,
two thousand and one, Meltzer says at this point in
the show, the show went to hell. They went to
a commercial break at ten fifty seven pm, although clearly
teasing Angle and Austin on another bridge, this time over
the Don River, the guy handling the satellite apparently figuring
the show ended. At eleven pm, cut off transmission and
a TVPG rating flashed on the screen, likely for another
Star Trek episode. Then the screen went blank, then a
bunch of commercials until eight minutes or so later in
the building, it was bad because fans started leaving in drove,
certing the show was over. Lily and Garcia had to
tell the fans to stay and that there was more so. Actually,
that transmission being out was a good thing for a
few seconds, since people were leaving and coming back. Debor
came out to do her plan speech, but the floor
director gave her the signal to stall. She wasn't good
at it and was dying out there trying to keep
the crowd before the signal came back. Finally, in a panic,
they signaled for Haymon to do an interview since he's
good under pressure. Well he probably is, but his mic
didn't work. Garcia eventually figured out to give him her mic,
and he yeld at how sick the fans were for
wanting to see Austin thrown over a bridge. Finally, the
signal came back on, with Debora in mid speech about
doing some of the worst acting even by raw standards,
crying and begging Angle not to throw Austin over the
bridge since he's her husband. Should be noted that there
was a major rainstorm in Toronto Live, but because this
was pre taped, no such problem. But it confused the
hell out of the people leaving the acc not figuring
out why it was pouring and it wasn't where Austin
and Angle were. Somehow, in all of the physical comedy,
Austin either jammed or broke his left thumb, but was
still able to work the next night. Wait really, yeah,
so I think either in like the pool part or
something here, Austin broke his thumb.
Speaker 1: Dude, Wow, holy shit, he went for it. Yeah, man,
you got to give it your all.
Speaker 2: So that's what happened there. So, like what we saw,
I don't know if that was like the version that
like ended up on the network I'm assuming, which wasn't
cut with the commercial shit or stuff like that, you
know what I mean? So like this in person, I
don't know, and maybe someone can find like the someone
va like tape this on VHS or something. What how
this actually aired? I'd like to see that actually, But yeah,
so like this was they got fucked, they got fucked
by the show going off air early or or they
went over. Is really what happened?
Speaker 1: Damn, dude, that's not what I expected.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's crazy. It is actually crazy that
it was super fucking awkward though. Man, good lord. Well
