  1. If I remember correctly, xpac beat Kane on raw after this so she had to spend New Years with him. When she came back, she betrayed Kane. All part of the women are possessions to be won in wrestling matches thing that went on back then.

  3. We ought to talk about how awesome the set looked; would love to see a future Survivor Series War Games get something reminiscent of of it. DDPY references are always appreciated; I did my session earlier today. I remember HHH and Stephanie's story the most; it still is off-putting to me she being unconscious from one segment (otherwise, she has been effective as heel since then). Kane had a great performance no doubt; the finish with the flying clothesline from the cage was incredible leading to the Tombstone (it is a shame he celebrated the fall of Roe v. Wade on Twitter years later).

  4. "…if they did it felt tacky." In what world did a plot from a terrible soap opera not feel tacky? This storyline was garbage. The only thing that saved it was down the road them retconning it to be intentional.

  5. No the gate going up when vince's head is being rammed into it, i like to believe some worker tried to lift it up fast enough that vince doesn't hit it but it doesn't work and made it worse and is just "shoot i'm getting fired…"

  6. Whenever my non wrestling fan friends argue with me, saying that wrestling is not a soap opera, I tell them to google the Test/Stephanie wedding night. Poor Test. Still feel bad for him 20+ years later.

    Probably, top 5 OMG, outside of the ring moments Ever!

    Anyone who complains that this is insulting, disgusting and demeaning towards women, I just look them in the eyes and say, "yup", "and there's nothing you can do about it".

    Cue the Million dollar man laugh!

  7. 'With the deepest regrets, and tears that are soaked
    I'm sorry to hear that your dad finally croaked
    He lived a full life on his own terms
    Soon he'll be buried and eaten by worms
    But if I could have a son as stupid as you
    I'd have wished for cancer so I would die too
    So be brave, and be strong, get your life on track
    'Cause the old bastard's DEAD and he ain't never comin' back!'

    Big Boss Man was a riot in โ€˜99! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ The whole Big Showโ€™s dadโ€™s funeral is something Iโ€™ll never forget for as long as I live. Also Big Show cosplaying as Morpheus from The Matrix gets a big thumbs up from me. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
