Random Survivor Series Observations

[johnnyk9]

Bobby and Vince called SummerSlam 1992 together

[Captain & Diet]

My parents told my sister and I that they were divorcing during the 87 (first) Survivor Series PPV. Ruined the show for me. And Thanksgiving.

Sorry, couldn't resist. That's a crappy story though, I can't imagine.

[chronocross]

For the 87 show:
-I couldn't believe they didn't mention Steamboat's history with Savage and Roberts.

-Harley Race looks like he's getting down to HTM's theme there for a little bit in the ring.

-I do agree with Bruce Prichard's assessment to have HTM get beat, it's non-title so it wouldn't matter much and it could further the storyline with him and Savage.

-Andre telling everyone to shut up used to scare me when I was a kid, also the part where he says he's out for Hogan's "soul".

-Never really watched the women's match aside from the bump Jimmy Hart took.

-Didn't get why Hogan brought out the American flag.

-When Andre tagged in and Hogan was high-fiving Patera and accidentally tagged out, why didn't Hogan just tag back in so he could face Andre?

-Bam Bam looked like a star there, even falling in defeat to Andre.

I disagree about Honky getting beat. I thought the finish they did was the right call as it put over his character of being a coward and kept the heat him so fans would want to see him lose more and it would mean more when someone finally did beat him when the title was on the line.

Off topic a bit but I also strongly disagreed with Prichard's opinion on the Hogan/Andre match finish with him saying how nobody got over from it and they should've had Hogan get pinned. I thought they made again made the right call and it accomplished everything it needed to. Hogan was protected, Bigelow looked valiant, and Andre got the win to give him momentum going into the eventual title match. I always find it ridiculous when people always come with these fantasy booking theories saying how Hogan should've jobbed in these meaningless matches (especially in 1989 where people actually think he should've jobbed to Ted Dibiase who he wasn't even feuding with). What good does it to have your World Champion and franchise babyface take a fall in a meaningless match? It would be a horrible business decision.

1993

Lex: Hi, I'm Lex Luger and this is my family
Wife: Lex, we talked about this, I love you but I'm not IN love with you

Doughy White Guy here to sing the National Anthem

The parallels fight?

Hey, we really f***ed up last year, so here's a real Survivor Series show!

Those whistles make it sound like Tugboat's here

and then a random Atari sound effect to start the show

Bobby Heenan: AM I SHOUTING?

Vince stirring the shit between Heenan and Monsoon for literally no reason. Heenan didn't say anything!

Rick Martel still floating around

Fink: HAM....BOMB!

IRS should have made his entire team wear ties

Marty Jannetty managed to look like a relic from the 90s while still in the 90s

Razor: Remember that guy that I tried to seriously injure last year? He's my partner now!

Razor didn't get the memo that they were all covering their torsos

I was just going to say that there were a lot of empty seats but I realized those were stairs

"They certainly know their furry animals."

Did this Adam Bomb/Rick Martel fight lead to anything later on?

Nash seemed to enjoy throwing Kid around like a rubber ball

Savage basically squashes Diesel

Heenan asking if there's a rest period like it's his first Survivor Series or something

Heenan to Vince: Have you ever cheated anybody?

Savage has literally no self control and screws over his team just because Crush is there. He's like that girl who goes to a party where she knows the girl she hates is gonna be and then gets pissed for her being there.

IRS one of the first eliminated? Wow.

If this was 1991, everyone would have been DQ'd just now

Razor counted out? I really don't remember this show haha

Too many of Kid's offensive moves look like him taking an offensive move

Back to back sunset flips end the match? What is this? the NWA?

They could have done something to explain why Shawn Michaels had knights

Bruce just screams "asshole" constantly. I wonder what would happen if him and Ole Anderson were in the same room

"Look at that ugly little kid" is exactly what I was thinking

It sounded like Combs called him "John Michaels"

Why does he have to talk about Shawn's parents? Doesn't that make him as bad as Shawn?

Hey, Greg Valentine, we're gonna give you work but we want you under a mask

"We're gonna wear matching singlets, okay, Bret?" "Got it!"

Stu Hart got ringside in time for Survivor Series 94

Ray Combs shows he's colorblind minutes into the match

I think they should have gotten guys that had something to do with Bret's past to at least make it more interesting. Have them each get unmasked as they're eliminated. Hell, Danny Davis could have been one.

This match is entirely too long. It should have been a glorified squash to basically embarrass Shawn for all the comments he made about the Hart family.

The last time Owen Hart and Greg Valentine were in the ring together on a WWF PPV it was Survivor Series 88 and Owen was wearing a blue outfit and mask. Now 5 years later it's the reverse.

Bruce Hart kicks out of sweet chin music

Bret goes off in a neutral corner for no apparent reason. Then he hurries up to get into the spot to make Owen look stupid

Meanwhile Danny Davis should be counting out the other 3 Hart brothers

Everyone does the exact same Stu Hart impression

I'm not sure what the heck that guy in the audience is selling but I thought he was carrying a barbed wire board for a second

Shawn is supposed to walk out but Bruce can't control himself and he runs after Shawn ruining the ending. It made no sense that he wasn't able to just grab Shawn and bring him back. Then Bruce randomly shoots the bird in the ring

Stu does nothing to stop his sons from fighting

Owen: I get no respect, I get no respect at all!

JR totally said "Ford Fanatics"

Borga with the one finger pin, a page out of Luger's playbook

Scott Steiner looks legitimately scared of Taker

Cornette: So we're replacing Pierre with Johnny Polo!

Heavenly Bodies vs. Rock n Roll Express. They may as well have told everyone to go buy popcorn.

What song was dubbed here? I haven't watched this show in years.

JR claims this feud has been going on for 10 years

Okay, at least he clarified his remark later by mentioning The Midnight Express

That's an odd shade of grey....beige....taupe?

Very early WWF springboard moonsault by the Gigolo

WWF referee is all "f*** your over the top rope DQ"

Imagine if Doink said his 4th partner was Scott Casey

Afa literally choking to death

Booger seems like he doesn't actually like turkey, he kinda just rubbed it on his face instead of putting it in his mouth

Future Hall of Famer with crap all over his face

The reveal of the 4 Doinks pissed me off so much as a kid. I just wanted 4 Doinks. Not Bushwhackers and Men on a Mission as Doinks.

The least they could have done is worn Doink outfits to go along with the paint and wigs

I remember Meltzer speculating that Macho Man could be one of the Doinks

"We MUST have 4 Doinks"

There's something really frightening about Mabel smiling as Doink

I would have liked to somehow see Sir Mo get converted into Sirmo and that somehow be an MST3K gimmick

He's eating Booger!

Samu jobs to a water balloon

The Red Jacket Squad seems to enjoy this match

How did that hurt Booger's ass exactly?

HE'S GOT A BICYCLE! I don't care that it's a scooter.

Fatu is afraid of water

6 years ago Bam Bam was able to beat King Kong Bundy and One Man Gang by himself while exhausted....

I remember also being pissed that it clearly wasn't Matt Borne as Doink. I was convinced it was Todd Pettingill.

Cornette totally said "f***" instead of "funk and"

Fink: "Rebecca Shock!"

The heels need more managers

They probably could have replaced Jacques as well. He seems like such an odd man out here.

Rick Steiner takes out a cameraman and Bobby Heenan yells "Oh my God!" I think he was honestly concerned

Wow, Rick Steiner out super quick. I don't think anyone expected that.

They throw Randy Savage out of the building yet he somehow gets back in. Hopefully they didn't pay too much for this level of security

Bart Gunn should have just thrown a left hook and knocked Savage out

Billy Gunn looks like a different person

Technically couldn't they have DQ'd Scott Steiner since Savage attacked Crush?

Even with 4+ months of buildup of the Savage/Crush feud the company honestly thought we'd believe that Lex Luger might face Crush at Wrestlemania X.

Luger eliminates Jacques with one of Bret's five moves of doom

Scott Steiner with a top rope superplex on Ludvig Borga that was more of a throw

For a man of his size, Yokozuna was a hell of a bumper

Luger/Undertaker vs. Yoko/Borga is a hell of a main event for the B-towns

Yokozuna with a bit of a running frog splash that Luger dodges

Undertaker sitting up to dodge the Banzai Drop is a great spot

I understand having to protect Undertaker and Yoko but now Luger goes over Borga clean and that kinda kills him.

"The arrogance of Ludvig Borga is appalling." Vince thinks he's Rick Martel

Shouldn't the managers have been sent to the back anyway?

"We could be here all night" followed by a finish

It's snowing....again.

It's Santa....again.

[lildude8218]

1994

The poster makes it look like Taker is teaming with 4 masked cowboys

It shows how sad the Million $ Corporation was that they needed the Heavenly Bodies to fill out their team

Welcome to Vince trying to blow out his voice a minute into the show

Bob Backlund in his "I touched poo" pose

Diesel's theme could have been used as "Heel Tugboat theme"

The WWF spends two years one upping Macy's by having Santa on their show and then they get invited to be part of the parade the next year

Okay guys, let's stand around and not bother starting the match

Fatu don't need no shoes!

Can a Bulldog suplex a Rhino?

Fatu acting like someone set his foot on fire

Weird seeing Shawn all buddy-buddy with Jeff Jarrett

So far Vince has said "Doubleday" Jeff Jarrett and Razor Mamone

Some Mexican dudes in the front row in Survivor Series shirts that could be lost Dudleys

Even though there's 2 referees the heel team manages to cheat behind the main referee's back

Diesel, the biggest man, eliminates Fatu. So let's send the smallest guy to go up against him. That's smart.

The babyfaces do nothing to break up either pin so far

Diesel almost killed the Barbarian with that Jacknife

Bulldog gets counted out even though there's no bell or call from the official

It's Diesel's own fault for not just pinning Razor

Where's the five count, referee?

Diesel gets mad that Shawn kicks him by accident. There's no such thing as accidents in wrestling.

Shawn is the legal man but everyone gets counted out for some reason. I think Razor paid this referee off.

Shawn trying to abduct Todd Pettengill

Gorilla: Vince, do you think I could be related to the dad from ALF?

Diesel so mad and wanting to get his hands on Shawn but he stops to take phone calls

Was it really that hard to round up another 2 midgets to make it 5 on 5? Where's Wheezy and Kink? Err....Sink? Tink?

What if Doink unmasked and it was Andy Kaufman?

All of this free promotion for Burger King now

"Jerry Brawler"

Danny Davis officially gives no f***s

I can't take this match seriously because the clown's name is Pink but his wig is clearly red

Doink probably could have been more serious and eliminated Lawler earlier but now he's mad that he's the first one out

Ass biting = totally legal

Imagine if Wink and Pink came out from under the ring in Killer Bee masks

Cheesy looks like he's trying to bite Lawler's ass at the end

Doink's huge revenge is pie

Alundra Blayze heeling it up in Japan with the American flag

I saw a match featuring a younger Bull Nakano with her hair down and she was really attractive

Weird how they hyped the women randomly when they weren't even on the show

Bret's 2nd reign was a midcard reign

Looking back I should have realized something would be up when it was stated the match would only end when the corner man threw in the towel

"Come on, Bobby" - Owen Hart as a first base coach

Smarks called in to vote for the better finisher

I'm really in the mood for wings right now for some reason

It's amazing how Bret's son grew up to be a hobo who writes for a wrestling site

There's actually some really good psychology in this one. Backlund working over Bret's arm and neck. Guys not just going for their finish but using other submissions.

Gorilla's never seen anyone submit to an armbar. Imagine if he ever watched UFC

The idea of Owen not wanting to throw in the towel for Bob just because he can't get another title shot otherwise is very interesting

Bret performs a bulldog in front of the Bulldog. Blood feuds started over less in the old days

Referee not mad at Owen for getting in the ring but he's disappointed in Davey Boy because he knows better

Bret just calls Owen a son of a bitch....THEY'RE BROTHERS!

I totally thought Owen was going to turn face here. Face/heel turns usually happened after a year or so

Helen: Owen, can't you just throw in Bob's towel and end the match?

Bret tapping out now but that doesn't count!

Two fans just jumped the guardrail and security is doing nothing. i don't care whose mom and dad it is, they're fans!

Anne Meara was great as Bret's mom here

Owen stealing the towel to sell it on eBay

They totally did this just because Foreman won the title that same month

You only had a few days to be pissed off about Backlund as champion

Disappointed Gorilla

It's sad that it took me years to realize why Bundy looked so different during this run. It was his eyebrows.

Why couldn't they have just been The All-Americans again?

Mabel going to the top rope is scary for so many reasons

Oscar just looks happy to be there. Mo looks....invisible as usual

Vince: Please believe us when we say Mabel's head hit the barricade even though his head was nowhere near it

Bam Bam's moonsault was always cheap looking to me

DiBiase spent a lot of money borrowing the Heavenly Bodies and meanwhile his team would have done fine with a 5 on 3 disadvantage

I feel like they just randomly decided Tatanka's finisher was now the End of the Trail

I always hated when Bundy followed up the Avalanche with an elbow instead of a splash, looked weak.

Vince actually making note of pro-heel signs in the crowd

Ref totally fast counts Tatanka

Luger hangs on when it's 3-1 for way too long for how quickly the match ends

Luger getting his ass kicked should have led to some sort of huge babyface turn instead of just having the rest of Luger's team slowly come back. Maybe Diesel could have saved Luger to really put over the fact that he was a good guy now.

Gorilla says that Backlund won the title back the same way he lost it. True but Backlund wasn't in a match where the towel was the only way to lose.

Chuck Norris gets pyro and ballyhoo

Undertaker's music is playing and both Vince and Gorilla are asking "What is that?"

I remember being certain that they just re-painted the Kamala casket to use it here

Grape Flavored Undertaker

Paul Bearer sounding like he got caught in his zipper

Undertaker must have amazing core strength

What is that inside the casket? Velvet?

Chuck Norris vs. Bundy would have sold out the Tokyo Dome

Chuck Norris and Major Payne vs. Bundy and Bigelow would have sold out the Silverdome

Random IRS with a dick kick.

I guess DiBiase was still mad at Taker for Summerslam?

Double J gets kicked and turns into a breakdancer

Danny Davis forced to push the casket while his partner pretends to be pulling

Wonder why Santa didn't want to visit the Undertaker

[Cranjis McBasketball]

I met Bret about a week after this event at a signing, don’t worry, his shoulder was fine.

[lildude8218]

1995

Here to sing the National Anthem....Mr. Perfect!

Oh yeah, Marty Jannetty's back.

Everyone runs past Hakushi like they don't want to be seen with him

I know it wasn't but Dr. Tom being on the heel team looks like a "Scott Casey" move

Razor pulling a Macho Man early on

Shouldn't he have been the Million Dollar Kid when he joined the Corporation?

Just read that Avatar was supposed to be on the Underdog team...oof

We're down to a six man tag just like that

Hakushi finally waking up the crowd

Horowitz pins! Horowitz pins!

Marty is the last guy left on his team? Really?

Sunny interferes in front of the ref and there's no DQ

Kid tries to end it with the Harlem Hangover

Sid n the Kid sounds like a kid's show or a western

Razor Ramon hanging out with Taker's team instead of his own.

Todd's earring is way too distracting

The ring announcer sounds like he's making up these Japanese names

Alundra's partner is in the ring and on the top rope and she gets patted on the ass. Somehow that's a legal tag.

Aja Kong manages to get over with only a few moves

Bertha Faye looks like the little girl from Look Who's Talking Now but blown up to a much larger size

Alundra with a Flair Bump that confused everyone

Mr. Perfect just trying to find something to say during this match incorrectly says it's the first time women have been involved in the Survivor Series

Mr. President should have been revealed to be named Charles President

It's pretty sad that it took me almost 2 years to realize Goldust was Dustin Rhodes

Did Al Snow's Head ever wear the Goldust wig?

This is a dud of a match

I always mis-remembered The Royals as being a team led by Jerry Lawler and not Mabel

Phantom of the Taker

Mabel stars as Brush Man in the new Mega Man game

First instance of someone saying "Triple H" that I can remember

It's amazing how 3 of these guys were at the very least semi-active as of this year

Savio Vega completely no sells the piledriver and tags Taker

Taker would have saved us a ton of time if he just started the match for his team

I forgot that Shawn was a babyface here since he was exactly the same as the previous year

If anything, Razor's team should have the easier time since it's 3 heels and 1 face.

Cornette actually enjoys being spanked

Shawn and Razor acting like they can't fight each other...k...

Watch Shawn Michaels bump bump bump and bump some more

Razor sets up for a top rope bulldog but Ahmed walks too far away so Razor has just jump down and do it. Ugly.

Totally sounded like Vince said the Bulldog was the "wimpy WWF champion"

I feel like everyone had slammed Yokozuna at this point

Bulldog randomly attacks his own partner to keep himself from winning the match. How bizarre.

Super long shot on the random blonde that is super into Diesel

Why didn't Bret remove all the turnbuckle pads?

Why didn't he bring a taser or something for that matter?

"The insertion!" "The what?!?"

Bret finds the microphone that's been recording all of his private conversations and is NOT happy.

Bret definitely playing the heel here.

Bret with a scary looking plancha that misses

Bret sounded like he was going through broken glass when he went through that table

After all of this, Diesel loses to a lazy small package

Diesel shouts "Merry Christmas, Motherf***ers!" or something to that effect, I can't read lips

Santa's definitely not coming out to see Diesel now that he's been naughty

Wow, the show ended but then didn't end! What's this recap?

[chronocross]

Was it for the more effective finisher or best finisher? Still I remember back in school we feared that Crossface as they put it over huge on TV each week.

As for Luger's team vs. Tatanka's team, I think that was the end of Luger's push as he did nothing of note in 1994 after the Rumble match.

[lildude8218]

1996

Wow, those fake buildings had to have been annoying

Marty Jannetty still making appearances in 1996!

Leif Cassidy slowly heading towards THE Al Snow gimmick

Furnas and LaFon? more like Boring and BoRing!

Seriously, how much money would it cost to buy "Don't Go Messin' with a Country Boy?"

Did LaFon just hug Hillbilly Jim? Sup with that?

Furnas and LaFon with an alternate version of Strike Force's trunks

For a 3-man announce team there's long bits of silence for some reason

Marty must have sold his kneepads for coke

When JR calls you a geek it's pretty bad

The sweat on Phineas' back could put out a small fire

Owen and Bulldog don't care that their partner was eliminated

We're in super speed suddenly as it's 3 on 2

That dropkick looked like it really hurt

JR finally realizing that there's 2 officials yet cheating still happens

"What was that?!?" You're supposed to be the expert, Vince

I feel like Owen should have been pinned almost immediately after Bulldog just to make it more shocking

It's weird seeing Harvey on the outside as a ref after him being a manager

LaFon almost breaks Owen's neck with a suplex to win it

"I ain't goin on no plane....I mean in no cage!"

Wow, Taker/Mankind up second

JR: Undertaker made his debut on this very night 6 years ago.
Except that show took place on November 22nd and this was November 17th.

HOLY SHIT, GENE SIMMONS!

Vince insinuating that Paul Bearer is going to urinate all over the ring from the cage

Undertaker stars in Cry Baby, this summer from WWE Pictures

Did Lawler leave?

Mankind looked very shaky on the top rope

GOOZLE! [/Tazz]

Random weapon in Mankind's pants

Very sudden ending

Hey! It's some guy! Oh wait, I guess they already knew The Executioner. My timeline is messed up.

Two geeks running the American Online chat

Hey fans, you can look but you can't touch Sunny. Not for free anyway

Triple H still trying to get that accent over

What an odd team: Goldust, Triple H, Lawler and Jailbird Crush

I guess this was after that whole fiasco with Mr. Perfect where he pretended to come out of retirement to face Triple H but then was really in his corner. Then Perfect left....again so they retconned it to make it seem like Triple H dumped Perfect after he got the title

The Stalker with a throwback to old Survivor Series shows by just wearing the company logo on his shirt

Gotta make Rocky look strong

Marc Mero makes a "Revelation" reference thinking the fans would pop knowing he was talking about Jake but it's met with silence

Jake looks awful here

Thank you JR and Sunny for shouting over Vince while he talks

Barry Windham breaking his own rule by having facial hair while being a babyface

Oh, I guess the actual re-write hadn't happened yet. They're still wondering where Mr. Perfect is.

Gotta make Rocky look strong!

Wow, even a few Dwayne Johnson references in there

Sunny with a "Vince has a toupee" joke that goes over like a fart in church

Jake being assaulted here. He's used to having his assault around the rim of a glass.

Imagine if Jake's demons were like Finn Balor's demons

JR makes reference to Windham's lucky boots but then is really vague about why they're lucky. He sheepishly explains that they're Mulligan's boots. Like that was some scandalous thing to say.

Dustin Rhodes with some revenge over his former partner

Just realized that this match is like WCW circa 1992

Mention of the 1996 Hall of Fame ceremony the night before. I always wonder how different the Hall would look if they didn't skip inductions from 1997-2003

Sable trying to give Mero motivation but looks bored doing it

Sunny fawning over Triple H is getting annoying

Wow, Triple H out early

Mero with a tope con hilo and almost kills himself in the process

A phantom elimination for Mero that they completely miss

And Marlena is still very cold

Crush with the heart punch, Goldust with the dick punch

They gave him a shoulder breaker as a finisher? What is this? 1983?

Stone Cold has a list too

Remember when Livewire was pretty cool?

This is good Steve Austin before he became a parody of himself

JR: "I think it's gonna come down to a Submission match." Way to look into the future.

Austin must have had the scratch logo written on his fingers

"Neither one of these men has submitted in their entire career." I wish I had some fact checkers.

Bret wasn't starting to get boos yet

Vince passive aggressively telling JR he sucks now

They break through the railing and a security guy gets a huge smile on his face

It's kind of a weird decision for Monsoon to say the winner of this match gets a title shot. Sure Bret never got his rematch but it was also his decision to leave for 6 months.

Smark crowd with the "woos" during the chops.

Remember when a top rope superplex was a huge deal and not just a normal thing?

The actually just stole a spot from the Macho Man/Dynamite Kid match with the small package following the top rope superplex

Is Bret the first to kick out of the Stunner?

After all the high impact stuff this suddenly turns into a submission match

Bret loved that kick out of the sleeper into a pin spot

Some woman with folded arms moves out of the way so Bret won't hug her

Adam Goldberg?!?!?

With how long these hugs are taking I'm expecting someone to attack Bret

I thought Sid was wearing a yarmulke for a second

Someone let Captain Lou out of his cage

It's funny how they got two white guys to be rappers for a black militant group. This actually could have been a perfect spot for a heel Oscar, Mabel, and Mo

Looking back, maybe they should have called the fake Razor and Diesel "The Bad Guy" and "Big Daddy Cool" instead.

Part of Razor's pyro isn't working. Sabotage!

They definitely saw something in Glen Jacobs since they tried 3 different gimmicks with him before he finally got over

It's Tom, It's Tom, It's Vader, Tom!

The Funkettes just rubbing up against small children. Gross.

If Flash Funk turned heel would he have gotten The Godfather's gimmick?

Superfly as the mystery partner was such a letdown. You hear one random person yell.

"Not him! Not him!"

Is it really smart to have the smallest guy on your team start off against Vader?

Cornette refers to the fact that Razor's fallaway slam was called the Sack of Shit

Snuka slamming Vader is pretty impressive

Savio Vega completely jobbed out here

Savio just decides to come back with a chair.

They call for a "double disqualification" and the crowd is confused. I'm guessing Bret and Austin went long and they had to cut this match as quickly as possible

I feel like Vince Russo would have insinuated that Sid was responsible for the "West Memphis 3" murders

Shawn looks aggravated just coming out of his locker room

Shawn trying to blow Sid up off the bat

"Did you ever see Jose in his prime? I did." How old are you???

Sid vs. Cameraman

Shawn getting booed suddenly

"Shawn is like a pit bull," aren't they kinda big though?

There's that famous headstand from HBK

Sid going for the Million Dollar Dream after Austin used it earlier

Sid's camera shot to Jose made it seem like he killed him

Ref bump at an awkward moment.

Sid uses the camera AGAIN

I'm actually surprised that Shawn didn't kick out of that powerbomb.

The EMTs waited til the match was over to come for Jose

Sid and Vladimir join forces to end the show

[MolotovMocktail]

It shows how sad the Million $ Corporation was that they needed the Heavenly Bodies to fill out their team

Really, why didn't they have IRS and Nikolai Volkoff take the last 2 spots?

Volkoff was horrible and wasn't even being used at the time as they stopped him using him after the summer and he only popped back up for a one off at WrestleMania to be one of the lumberjacks in the LT/Bigelow match. IRS was left off so his appearance in the Taker/Yoko match would be more of a surprise.

[lildude8218]

1997

To the best of my knowledge nothing important happened at this show and it's mostly been completely forgotten as the years have gone by

Tito Santana has been SILENCED

This is pre-New Age Outlaws.

This is pre-Road Dogg, only one G

Nice "Southern Justice" mention which would be the Godwinns' later gimmick.

An abdominal stretch into a pin?!?!? What is this? The late 70s?

I hate when you zig when you should have zagged. That's what broke up the Spice Girls.

Everything is happening so fast that I can barely comment

A Thrasher and Bradshaw tag team is what happens when you pick random on your Smackdown game

Bradshaw gets his shoulder up but still gets pinned somehow. Hopefully there's no other shady officiating tonight.

"I think he was trying to negotiate some kind of pumphandle slam there" is a phrased I never thought I'd here

The French ring announcer is gonna take some getting used to

"Undertaker is not a homo" Was this ever in doubt?

Jackyl already saying to hell with this military gimmick with the leather jacket

Why would Skull and 8-Ball have "Kona" patches on their vests?

Crush's head tattoo hadn't magically disappeared yet

Is Sniper one of the most forgettable WWF PPV participants of all time?

Jackyl mentioning "heat"

I'm suddenly in the mood to take my shirt off and tweet Kurrgan

Interrogator wants to end the match already. He's halfway in the ring before Sniper gets pinned.

This is the late-90s in Canada, why don't these people look more like early 80s Americans?

Stone Cold looks asleep in the background at first

A fan came into the ring. So this led to us signing him for this match. So fans, try this and you may become a star!

Team America lost the match during the promo. You have a guy who isn't a wrestler and two guys in the midst of heel turns with Vader.

I'm guessing Pillman would have originally been on Team Canada, but who else would have been there?

Hey, it's Kurt Angle...oh, right.

Mero's hood is a little too pointy

Vader and Bulldog loved doing that "catch Vader and powerslam him" spot

Steve Blackman was a huge help here. They may as well have gone in 4-3

That Merosault looked dangerous for everyone involved

Just noticed the weird placement of the corners here. I thought Goldust was just standing in the wrong corner to be a jerk.

They're making Doug Furnas look like a star

Smack in the face should count as a tag

How did the referee not hear the bell being used as a weapon?

Wow, you get dinner with the superstar of your choice. That could be a fiasco.

She picks Steve Austin. He agrees to it and then an hour before he texts her to say he's too tired and maybe next time.

Kane was All Red Everything

That original Kane mask is super intimidating

It's a shame that Mankind and Austin never bonded over their middle fingers

Pretty sure this should have been a countout by now

Some fan calling spots for the wrestlers

Kane with the Lesnar Leap to the apron

It's kinda weird to see someone go down to one finisher

I wonder how many people sent in their cable bill without actually paying it first

Even Vince doesn't know who's gonna win!

Why are you so wet, Rocky?

"Tell em, Hawk"

I honestly thought Shamrock was going to be the next WWF champion

Ahmed manages to not injure himself on the way to the ring

Hawk no sells a piledriver but loses to the Rock Bottom not long after

There's a 2nd official on the outside but he did nothing about D'Lo using a belt

Ahmed is Hulking Up!

And now the referee does nothing about Faarooq interfering on the outside! Bret should have realized shit was going down

An alien has just landed apparently

Low blow right in front of the ref and nothing happens

Owen Hart has a piledriver on his mind because of his former tag team partner

Billy Gunn was the only one who was patient enough to paint his face

Floatover DDT into a northern lights suplex is fun

I think this hype video for Austin is longer than his match

I forgot that Owen had his own music at this point

This was really a non-match that is over quickly

Shawn's gotta boogie

I think Shawn's entrance is longer than the last match

Faith No More Guy with a sign telling Bret to leave now

That ominous walking in the hallway music

Bret hoping some fan takes a swing at Shawn so they get arrested

Bret and Shawn have been counted out

I wonder who's idea it was for the match to start out this way, it gave a good reason for Vince to come down there

Michaels attacks Pat Patterson for no reason

The match has finally started and Bret is using a foreign object and not even getting scolded for it.

Michaels with the flying forearm/kip up out of nowhere

Now Shawn is using the same foreign object that Bret did and the ref is yelling at him

The audience starting to riot for pretty much nothing

They don't make flag poles like they used to

Just once I wanna see a crossbody that rolls through into another roll through

Security still having problems with the crowd

As a former living room wrestler I can tell you, reversing the figure four does nothing but make both of you hurt

Bret clearly taps to the Sharpshooter

Then he accidentally sneezes on Vince McMahon

Shawn gets pissed that Bret didn't even apologize about sneezing on Vince and that Vince didn't say "God Bless You"

1998

Pull Ups = Championships

Push Ups = Championships

It sounds like Roman Reigns reading the voiceover

Elvis Lives With Terry

Arn Anderson?!?!?

Girl, Bye < Undertaker, Bye

It's actually amazing how a relic from the late 80s/early 90s like the Big Bossman could look like a legitimate threat with a slight change of costume

Mankind ready for a tuxedo match

I remember the rumors at the time were saying Shawn Michaels was going to be the mystery opponent for Mankind in the first round

I totally typed that before the crowd started chanting HBK

Foley is God Kane

I wonder why they chose Duane Gill out of anyone they could have gotten

"Duane Gill? Wait...I know him, that's Duane Gill!" What?

I think him being scared of the pyro is what got him a regular gig. It's the little things.

Mankind looking for Socko and pulling out nothing is like a weird Smackdown game animation

JR totally just said "nude champion"

Creepy Kevin Kelly hovering near Sable

Debra was one of my top crushes at the time

I'll also admit that I was a mark for pissed off Jeff Jarrett

Al Snow dressed as half of the Wendy's logo

Proof that Mankind doesn't watch the product since he still can't find Socko even though Al clearly has him. Then again who would watch an Al Snow match?

So many bleeps already

Incoming Debra Head joke in 3..2..there it is

That was a very complicated ending for no reason

Referee calls for the bell but it never rings. The timekeeper has gone rogue!

Great closeup of one of the Stooges' jackets

Bossman sliding to the outside to punch his opponent always looked awkward to me

Vince getting off on Austin getting beaten with a big stick

The man who constantly refuses medical attention and will fight no matter what will definitely not make it to the next round

Fink announcing X-Pac almost sounds like an overdub

Stephen Regal's gimmick is that he joined the WWF in 1995 and then fell into a time machine and came out 3 years later

More like Wolf-Pac with those colors on

A lot of empty seats near the front

No, Prakash Sabar is the X-Pak, King

JR name dropping Jesse Ventura

This is the Jake/Rude match of this tournament

Vince wants an overtime! He gets nothing for some reason! So confusing!

Regal and X-Pac just leave. Should have been fired for insubordination.

Why bother with all of that if you're gonna cut back to Vince screaming about Austin getting a bye?

At this point you clearly know who's winning the Mankind/Al Snow match

The Artist Formerly Known As The Artist Formerly Known As Goldust

What an ugly top rope frankensteiner by Shamrock

Shamrock looked like he was about to eat Goldust's shoe

The skull on the set looks like something from the Double Dare obstacle course

I still remember how it felt like just all of a sudden one day Rock was a face

Patterson and Brisco come out to Triple H's music and no one really minds

Imagine if Triple H wasn't there but he STILL wrestled

Why doesn't Vince just fine him?

Bossman deserves a second chance. They could have easily said that Rock had to beat Patterson and Brisco in a handicap match and accomplished the same thing

A four second pin....screw you Bundy!

Jerry Lawler doesn't listen to JR

Ministry Taker is one of my favorite versions of the character

I had completely blocked his eyebrow piercing from my mind though

A year ago The Undertaker was refusing to fight Kane. That sure went out the window.

Kane just randomly grabs the ref's ankle. Should have been a DQ

Where's the urn?

Paul Bearer is strong enough to keep Kane's leg down

No time! Hit Mankind's music now!

That was a great plan to take Socko away and now we put together a tournament where he's sure to find it....wait...

Outside interference from Head

Kinda thought Mick was gonna hit an enzuigiri for a second

Al Snow puts his head down on a guy who uses a DDT as a finisher

Rock vs. Shamrock. Names are too close, I can't tell these guys apart.

Both of these guys hot pit bull in em?

I hope Bossman is getting paid per appearance. His bonus will be through the roof.

"I don't know if I liked that call" when Shamrock clearly kicked out

Bossman tries to give Shamrock the nightstick. Couldn't he have just attacked Shamrock and gotten The Rock DQ'd?

"We need some oxygen out here for the King" JR looking into the future

Jackie's generic music and wearing part of Sable's weave

Mero interferes and no DQ is called

"Low blow by the Sable"

Sable wins with the missionary pin

If this was Vince Russo's WCW then Mankind's Hardcore title would have been on the line in all these matches

Austin wants to rip off Mick's clothes apparently

Guy in an Austin Jersey that could pass for CM Punk

Referee just stops counting for no reason

Mankind uses a chair and the ref says nothing. On the take!

Stunner while landing on a chair has to hurt your ass

Vince can walk!

Mankind got caught with his pants down!

Shane turns face just to turn heel not that long later. Why ever trust him again?

Slaughter is the 5th Beatle of Vince's Stooges

Grand Theft Auto: Stone Cold

Jim Ross with a fast 7-count

Paul Bearer: Don't worry, Taker. I just have to hold the Rock's leg down and it's in the bag!

Undertaker hates Sprite!

Paul Bearer makes a face while Rock and Taker are in the crowd that makes it look like there's a guy posing as Paul Bearer

A smelly foot joke!

Bossman's Back! And better than ever!

Rock hits the Dick Punch

"Undertaker nailin' the Bossman" Hot!

Kane just happens to help the secret plot

Delayed Rock music

That looks like a Midnight Rose mask on Billy Gunn's ass

Triple H is in China?!?

Mark Henry with a very slow run-in

Someone actually got an airbrushed sweatshirt with Thrasher's face on it? That had to be his wife, right?

Mark Henry and D'Lo Brown still coming out to what is basically The Rock's music

I wonder if any bands either begged for The Headbangers to wear their shirts or asked them not to

D'Lo and Mosh fighting. Lo Down explodes!

Mosh with the Dick Kick to almost win the tag titles

D'Lo with the Sky High....or the Lo Down....which was which? Both names worked for each move.

That Mark Henry splash made me cringe for real

Billy Gunn wins with a piledriver for some reason

This final round match feels like they put the tournament through a randomizer. Like going into the show Rock/Austin seemed like the obvious end, but I guess they were saving that for Mania so it makes sense.

"Vince and his crew are probably in a learjet." Immediate cut to backstage with Vince and Shane

Remember when people actually cared about the Home Shopping Network?

Rock don't wanna work, he wants to bang on the steps all day

How was Rock ever a face? He's kind of a dick to the ref and blows his snot all over Mick

In Soviet Russia table gets thrown through you!

Shane sounds like he's doing a bad Freddie Prinze impression

Rock uses a Sharpshooter for some reason.

Wait a second, this all seems so familiar

He did it for the Rock. He did it for people screwing people!

Toterlly!

I feel like they could have just let Mick in on the plan and he would have just laid down for the Rock

Austin shows up without any music

Mick looks like an absolute fool to end the show

[lildude8218]

1999

Controversy is the theme of this PPV

I don't remember Godfather's music having him say anything before it started

Restaurant quality hoes?

This girl from a local talk radio show got to play a Ho on an episode of Sunday Night Heat. She was a bigger girl (height/build, not really weight) and Kevin Kelly made fun of her on air. They played it on the show a bunch.

The Pimp Bangers....wait....

What would this team be called? The Godfathers?

Has there ever been an explanation as to why the Dudleys dropped the tye dye and the stuttering gimmick so quickly?

Weird Acolyte music here

Can you imagine Gorilla Monsoon saying "Managers, Bodyguards, and Hos are not allowed at ringside during these matches?"

Bradshaw completely kills Thrasher with a clothesline from Hell

Headbangers jobbed the F out

Alright, Bradshaw just decides to DQ himself

If this was ECW this would have somehow turned into a three way dance

Are Faarooq and D-Von counted out or what?

D'Lo kicks out of a powerbomb off the top rope. Why does he need to be protected here?

Odd for Godfather and D'Lo to go over the Dudleys. You'd think they would want to push them hard.

If the Right to Censor had been a group of fishing enthusiasts would he have been The Codfather?

Looking back on this Angle piece it's amazing they were trying to make him a babyface. This seems like a total douche heel promo.

Imagine if Shawn Stasiak's Titantron was just footage of his dad

In Angle's defense they crowd is yelling "boring" after one headlock takeover

Maybe this should have been done on a random Raw or been more of a squash. I guess they were still trying to make Survivor Series the yearly night of debuts

At least they gave him a chance to cut that mid-match promo to see how him being heel would work

Stasiak forgets to go for a pinfall after the F-5. He could have beaten Angle!

Val Venis with the Lethal Lottery Team

Wait...no, I guess Bulldog's team is more random

I feel like the crowd is mostly frozen during this match

Mark Henry tossing Bulldog needs to be a gif immediately

Oh wow, Bulldog actually got an elimination. I figured it was a clean sweep.

A bruised Valbowski is a serious thing

Michael Cole just barges into the women's locker room yet Ivory still comes off as a bigger creep

I'm waiting for the obvious "Sudden Death Match" joke from King here about Moolah and Mae

The Other Tori

And there was the joke

This may be the worst collection of Women's wrestlers of all time

Tori just picked up Mae Young on the outside of the ring, grabbed her hand and tagged her. While both were outside the ring....

This match = workrate

The intros took longer than the entire match

X-Pac rambles through his promo

Don't even attempt to edit out the f*** in X-Pac's song

Little Hose > Little Hoes

I feel like this should have been put into a Survivor Series match and the one on one saved for the next PPV

Sloppy deadweight chokeslam leads to obvious interference that the referee manages to miss anyway

Triple H just got back from a bike race to attack Kane

A Case of the Limber Tail is my favorite Encyclopedia Brown book

Oh hey, it's B.B.

Let's show the replay where the kick clearly doesn't even touch her

Rock and Triple H fighting over who is allowed to wear the outfit with the stripes down the leg

Albert when he was a Prince, Mideon before he was Naked, and Viscera before he was a lover

Mideon with some DX looking facepaint

In Big Show's defense, who would want to team with Kaientai or the Blue Meanie?

But really, how is Big Show is a face here when he's attacking guys that want to help him?

"And his partner opponent..."

I'm glad I decided to watch this in double time to make it faster....oh wait...

Bossman leaves so fast he's gone before the rest of his team even leaves

Triple H is drunk and attacking Austin

Road Dogg and X-Pac running is interrupted by something that is clearly a video

from the driving style it's clear that John Cena hit Stone Cold

"Let's get a camera out there!" why not ask for an ambulance?

Vince tells an EMT to not touch Austin

B.B. makes her second appearance of the night

EMT: Hold still, I'm just gonna put this white Mankind mask on your face

This segment is now longer than 3 of tonight's matches

"Here's a seatbelt! Screw it!" Fred Flintstone would be ashamed

Test almost grabbed Stephanie's ass

It's funny that no one thought to blame Billy Gunn almost immediately for this since he hadn't been seen all night

Miss Kitty attacks Jericho and no DQ is called

Now Jericho is choking Chyna with some cables, Earl Hebner is awful

JR talking smack to Jericho. There's a feud that could have happened.

Now Jericho is going to get fined for destroying the wall

This match feels like a WWF game simulation. Lots of moves, taunts, etc

Jericho puts out an imaginary cigarette on Chyna's back

Jericho kicks out of the Pedigree. No wonder Triple H hates him so much

"Sorry about yours, Gonzo!"

"Grandmaster Sex AH"

Imagine that gimmick: a guy who thinks he has to buy a ticket to a show he's wrestling on and that's why he enters through the crowd

Hardys turn heel to join up with Gangrel as the New Brood, win Terri's services, turn face, go back to being the Hardy Boyz, but keep the heel manager

This show feels incredibly long and we're not even at the 2 hour mark

Sexay takes out a camera man with his foot

What's Edge wearing? Is that velvet?

I blinked and Edge and Matt are gone

Jeff hits a 450 and it looks like it took every ounce of energy out of him

Christian is by himself against 3 guys. Who booked this shit?

What is THE question?

....with all your mamas!

Lawler finally brings up that Billy Gunn has been missing all day

Team Man Snow? Team Al Kind?

They're gonna be thinking about their asses!

Billy Gunn is even wearing all black. Like a person who wanted to hide in the shadows!

Hogan is clearly the 3rd man

I remember the Smackdown where Mick and Al won the tag titles. A kid at school didn't believe me when I told him they were going to win the titles. I had read the spoilers from the taping the night before and told him exactly how the match ended. He finally believed me after it aired. He thought the shows were all live.

Double Dick Kick

I wonder who really drove the car

"Definitely a blonde headed person driving the car" amazing how that worked out to their advantage

I loved Triple H's post-DX heel music.....then they added the lyrics....

Lawler jokes about Shane being the 3rd man. Less than 20 years later he probably would have been

Let's give Big Show a title shot to make up for making him look like a jackass

Should have replaced him with Stevie Richards

Everyone chanting for Austin thinking he's gonna do a run-in...oops

I honestly expected Rock to go for a pin randomly on the outside

JR honestly thinks The Rock blew THAT much snot in Big Show's face rather than water?

Rock totally clotheslines Hebner on purpose

Shane McMahon appoints himself official

So many run-ins

Vince power walked back from the hospital

"McMahon has screwed Helmsley" would become the company motto

Big Show slobbers all over the belt to end the show

[lildude8218]

2000

T&APA

Oh I thought this was gonna be elimination rules for a second

Someone tell Albert to stop yelling so much

Incompetent official Teddy Long

Soooo yellow

The irony of Kurt Angle hoping there's a non-alcoholic version of something

I still think "Lo Down" was one of the laziest team names ever. Just take the name of one of D'Lo's moves and we're done.

Baby R-Truth

"The One" Billy Gunn is still allowed to have lips on his ass, should have been #1's

I always felt like Eddie was the odd man out in the Radicalz

Perry Saturn with the RVD DDT sell

Keep mentioning that the title has changed hands at the last 6 Survivor Series shows....don't telegraph it not happening at all

Once again I must have blinked, all of a sudden Billy is by himself

2 on 1 and the heels still had to cheat to win haha

Lilian looks like a street walker from behind

"This isn't about coffee"

I just don't think these two work well together

And finally it's over

No offense but Regal vs. Holly isn't what I needed after that last one

Bob should have been in the opener with his cousins

The audience agrees with me

This show has really gone down the shitter suddenly

Trish basically saying she's done with T&A without actually doing that

"They're like family members" turned to actual family members

"I need you to take out Stone Cold Steve Austin *phone cuts out* to dinner for his birthday!"

Black Lincoln sounds like a rapper

Rikishi still wearing his babyface gear as a heel is an odd choice

"You'll get disqualified, Rock" except we've already seen much worse be overlooked

This is literally the exact opposite of a civil war, JR

Rikishi stole Triple H's sledgehammer

At least the crowd is into this one

I was expecting The Rock to somehow no sell or block the Stinkface

Well I guess he sorta did

Rock wins but Rikishi gets his heat back

Who let Raven into WWF New York?

Stone Cold Jorts

Mick bars the Radicalz from ringside but then makes it No Holds Barred, which means they can show up

Damn smoke alarms

Lita got busted the hell open, how is beyond me

He's wearing white socks! Hilarious!

I can't believe one little punch actually busted Lita open that badly

Baby Coach

now Jericho is a jerk and attacks Kane backstage. it's more exciting than their actual match

Dogs and Yards

Kurt looks high while he walks out

what was your favorite Kurt Angle Year One Moment?

I wish someone had the balls to tell Taker that those pants were awful

Taker tells Angle he can use a chair. Angle uses it, this backfires on Taker. Shocking.

Taker pulls up Angle during a three count. I guess he deserved to lose.

Spine-first? I think his back probably hit the post first

Edge and Christian just being allowed to hang out after interfering

I love them just using the ring steps to block the damage Jericho did instead of using something else

Earl Hebner screwed Undertaker!!!!

There's 2 Kurt Angles!

They left the XFL commercial in here

Fink always said "Christian and Edge" for some stupid reason

It was always weird to me how Godfather and Val Venis just went along with the Right to Censor after a while.

Also I hated when Val just switched to black pants like everyone else

Nice touch with the Hardys having camo on

Bull never kept his tie on

Another Lethal Lottery ending: Jeff and Bubba vs. Goodfather and Christian

Matt Hardy teleported to save his brother after the match

Very weird having the heels go over but then the face team come back and do all this nonsense

Walking through the hall music

Rikishi's accomplice was so underwhelming and too obvious to even be obvious

Triple H music without lyrics, nice

Ugh, THAT Austin music

There's a guy in the crowd who could have passed for Austin's brother

This match is brought to you by Pepsi

Austin just getting drunk during the match now

JR calls the Pedigree a piledriver before correcting himself

Austin takes the Undertaker's lead and doesn't go for a cover

Check out that ice cream machine. I guess it was cheaper in the long run than having to go out for ice cream after the shows all the time.

Sgt Slaughter vs. Eddie Guerrero happening in the background as Benoit beats on Austin

Triple H sounds like a voiceover here

Austin has a license to operate a forklift?!?!?

AUSTIN! NOOOOOOOO!

Austin wins via homicide to end the show

[cjh]

"Don't even attempt to edit out the f*** in X-Pac's song"

It's actually "luck." The song goes "I'm not the one they try their luck with."

[lildude8218]

Really? All these years I thought it was "f*** with." I never actually listened to the song when there wasn't crowd noise and announcers talking over it

[lildude8218]

2001

So many Wrestlemania clips in a video about the start of Survivor Series

DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE

Looks like Faith No More Guy decided to just go to WWF New York instead of travel to this show

CHRISTIAN! CHRISTIAN! AT LAST YOU'RE HONOR ROLL!

Al Snow coming out to generic Tough Enough music

This PPV is weirdly booked because of the whole immunity thing. It also kind of telegraphed the ending of a lot of these matches.

Kurt in the Alliance still looks weird as hell

Shane deserved to lose for putting himself in the match instead of picking someone else

Vince: Shit happens Venkman: And who ya gonna call?!?

Michael Cole calls him "Vince" oops

I just realized that Al Snow being on the Alliance would have made more sense than Christian being there

Regal could have passed for Vince's bastard son

"The first Alliance Raw" but wouldn't they have changed the name of the show too to get rid of all WWF things?

"Reprehensible" sounded like "Referee Hensible"

"The Commissioner of the Alliance" sounds like "Assistant to the Regional Manager"

Imagine if Regal's nosebleeds were a gimmick. Total Russo thing

Wow, that was quick. I'm guessing they cut it short because of Regal's nose.

Torrie looked like she had been released from a cage or something

Test vs. Edge in a "You Stole My Face" match

Test and Stacy together before they join up on screen

Surprised to be hearing Rob Zombie right now

Oh, there's an ad for his CD, now it makes sense

JR: "This is Smash Mouth....check out their NEW album where all CD's are sold"

Test used up 2 charged finishers to steal Edge's Spear

Edge kicked out of the pumphandle slam!

Test loses to wrestling

Edge is the Undisputed Unified Champion now according to Finkel. The WWE and WCW champions have some questions

Stephanie: If we lose tonight I'm gonna do something stupid like get drunk and make out with the first guy I see!

Lita: I know this is not the time to bring this up but you never gave me your third of the toll money

Matt is acting strange....if they only knew....

It looked like Matt was going to kiss Jeff after he kissed Lita

Lita suspicious of Trish coming out of Team WWF's locker room after Matt. Even though it's not The Hardy's private locker room.

Also how funny is it having Lita be suspicious of Matt and Trish...

Tags in a cage match is weird

Hit R3 to have Stacy shake the cage again

Why wouldn't Nick Patrick just allow Stacy to open the door and put the table in since he's an Alliance referee?

Matt was so scared of the Dudleys that he left the cage and left his brother alone

Wait, pinfalls count? Then why would Matt ever bother leaving the cage?

Jeff couldn't resist jumping off of a cage

JR actually asked Mick the question I had on my mind

Test: Hey Scotty, why would you run those stairs for no reason? Save your energy for the battle royal!

It's a bunch of actual WCW and ECW guys....and Test

Raven and Stevie having a faceoff, somehow I feel like that wasn't a work

Stasiak was eliminated before the bell rang. He should still be legal!

Tazz cheats by entering late

Random ass Chavo and Hugh Morrus just show up after tons of guys are already out. That's fair.

Booker T don't trust Austin....cuz he's from Houston!

Ivory comes out to a monkey playing a drum machine

Lita not happy about Jazz coming out

Ivory winds up from several feet away and hits Lita with a forearm while she's on the apron, Lita doesn't even think to move

What were Team Extreme always hollering for before the Twist of Fate? Just hit the damn move!

JR "Trish comes in the back door, I'm sure you would like that"

Some kid who looks like Chris Tucker right behind the announce table

Buddy Rogers...WHAT...Dr. Jerry Graham....WHAT...Gorilla Monsoon....WE KNOW HIM...Andre The Giant...WE KNOW HIM TOO...High Chief Peter Maivia...WE KINDA KNOW HIM

The Rock must REALLY have to pee

Holy boobs, Steph

Kurt Angle's love for Austin led him to the Alliance

Vince sees Rock and Jericho having problems but still keeps them both in the match anyway

It's amazing that Booker T and Van Dam didn't just get jumped by their partners at the beginning

Let's make fun of Jim Cornette for no reason now

It's kind of amazing that in a match like this the "dud" of the 10 guys is either Rob Van Dam or Shane McMahon

Who IS Pete?

Angle not going for the pinfall after giving Big Show the Angle Slam makes sense once you realize he's a double agent but not so much for anyone else

Kane completely no sells the frog splash. RVD then pins Kane with a jumping kick. That makes sense.

Stop calling him "Booger Red"

Maybe if Vince had let in just one of his team members in on the whole Angle thing they may not have spent so much time trying to eliminate him

Rock pins Booker with a lazy roll up even though Booker's shoulder was completely off the mat

Jericho pins Van Dam with "that face first maneuver"

Angle taps but wouldn't it have been easier for him to get Austin eliminated first?

Undertaker/Jericho should have become a feud after this

Kiss my ass and call the match!

Cool continuity with the Sharpshooter coming into play at the Survivor Series

Nick Patrick comes down NOW?!?

Why didn't Nick Patrick go for a fast count? This makes no sense

Kurt does now what he should have done 20 minutes ago

Bradshaw high fiving Lombardi should be a gif

Rock celebrating with a title that no longer exists
