Most replayed pieces of WWE footage?

[chazraps]

Whenever people discuss Mankind's fall from the top of the Hell in a Cell, it's often followed by referring to it as "one of the most re-used pieces of footage in the WWE library."

That thought crossed my mind during the most recent video package with Shawn Michaels where we saw his Summerslam '96 dive over the top rope at Vader which has been played a great deal, especially in the late-90s when Hall wasn't with the company and it was their go-to replacement for Michaels jumping off of the ladder.

Also, around Wrestlemania we always get the Hogan-Andre staredown as well as Edge spearing Jeff Hardy from the ladder and the slow motion of Liberace can-canning with the Rocketts.

Which else can you think of?

Andre choking Bob Uecker at WrestleMania IV seemed to be played quite a bit when referencing WrestleManias of the past or Andre the Giant. Two items WWE loves to bring up. Probably the most played moment involving a celebrity up until Tyson shoving Austin.

[Magic knows Black Lives Matter]

Hogan actually body slamming Andre is probably the most replayed wrestling footage ever.

Shawn Micheals descending on a zip line at WM 12 is played frequently in HBK tribute videos.

Pretty much any clip of Austin stunning Vince McMahon.

Vince welcoming everyone to Wrestlemania 3.

Taker throwing Foley off HIAC comes directly to mind.

Great call, I think this might be even more played today than the Tyson shove.

[Andrew is Good]

Hogan and Andre definitely, especially watching the older Wrestlemanias. Not as much when WCW was on top though I noticed. They usually buried Hogan if he was mentioned on WWF television.

Austin with the actual 3:16 glass shattering at WrestleMania
Bret walking down the aisle with the shades on slapping hands
Michaels off the ladder
Michaels on the zip line
Hardy Swanton through a table was used for a good while
Undertaker coming in on a hearse (despite the hate...'Mania 9 with the chariot and vulture was sick)

Lots of WrestleMania ones

Austin lifting the belt at WM 14
Bret lifting the belt at WM 10
Rock/Hogan faceoff at WM 18
Rock standing on the ropes with the belt at WM 15

I feel like I've heard that Michael Cole "Tonight, heroes will be made and careers and lives shaped forever!" line from WM 15 a bajillion times.

Stone Cold, handcuffed and being lead away up the ramp by the "cops".

[Zaq "That Guy" Buzzkill]

I swear that they have a requirement for the Austin-McMahon beer bath to be shown on every single DVD.

One that's always bugged me was for YEARS AND YEARS until he got unmasked, I swear in the intros, no matter how much the other clips changed, they ALWAYS played Kane dropping the arms and his pyro going off at some climactic moment of the song. Then when he was unmasked, they did it again. And I'm pretty sure they're back to it with him back in the mask. I'm pretty sure it's just three clips, one for each respectively.

[kidglov3s]

You guys got a lot of them.

Bret's reaction to the screwjob, him spitting on Vince, and Vince reacting to getting spat on.

Bret getting attacked by Lawler at his KOTR coronation was used a lot and is still a shorthand clip used whenever KOTR is brought up.

Savage holding up Elizabeth at Wrestlemanias IV and VII.

Was Randy Orton being un piggybacked via thumbs down and then beaten out of Evolution used a ton back around 2004-2007? I wasn't really watching at the time but it seems like they did as much as possible to make that the kind of image they like to go back to again and again.

Piper breaking a coconut over Snuka's head.

Punk on the ramp shootin' has already been used a billion times and it seems like that will forever be the go to CM Punk image. Him blowing a kiss to McMahon at MITB is also used a lot. I'm kind of let down that they don't use his return/holding up the belt to Cena in this way.

EDIT: I was really trying to rack my brain for a John Cena one... I think they show him coming down in the middle of all the Cena clones a lot, also him trolling the anti Cena fans after his match at WM26.

[Bub (BLM)]

Hogan and Andre staring at one another in the ring at WrestleMania III.

[Totorob101]

Bret Hart lifting the WWF world title at WMX usually gets shown doesnt it?

[Sir Woodrow]

Piper spraying Morton Downey Jr with the extinguisher

[HBL]

Yeah,most have been mentioned.Especially Hogan and Andre footage.

And it's worth mentioning that Cena's title defense at WM 23 has been replayed a lot too.
