Btw about that Xmas episode. Alberto turned babyface before that episode. Almost like WWE were trying to fuck up his faceturn before it started. Or it was incompetence

Minor correction Olli: sheamus wouldn’t have been the 1st person to win consecutive rumbles. That accolade belongs to stone cold who won in 97 and 98. Despite the 97 match being controversial due to him being previously eliminated by Bret hart the ringside officials failed to catch it. Stone cold reentered the ring, eliminated the remaining competitors and was awarded the match. The controversy surrounding his recently led to the promised title match being stripped and instead the final 4 competitors, stone cold, Bret, the undertaker and psycho Sid competed in a mini tournament to decide a new wwf champion. However, the strange circumstances don’t change the fact that in the official record books stone cold Steve Austin is the winner of the 97 rumble. Evidenced by the fact he’s constantly touted as a 3 time winner of the match. His wins being in 97, 98, and 01. Meaning he won 2 straight in 97 and 98. And he probably would have also won in 99 had they not had 11 more weeks of attitude era raw to write, so, that distinction instead went to Vince McMahon with stone cold being the runner up/final elimination. Also another minor correction: not sure if Luke’s mistake or the commentary but no 3MB would NOT have a 30% chance of winning they’d have a 10% chance of winning. 3/30 isn’t 30% it’s 10%

I actually do think Orton's a decent shout for someone who's "actually cool." He's rich and successful, but still has that slight disaffection, but unlike someone like CM Punk, the platonic ideal of "unable to be cool because he wants it too badly," Orton doesn't seem to have frozen all his shite mid-20s opinions in amber. I think being cool is being open to change at any point in your life, it's why James Dean still works, but 95% of the crap he inspired doesn't.

I was always confused by Jericho's response to "you've still got it" being "I never lost it"... Yes Jericho, that's what the word 'still' means...

They did the tumbler last year, I popped hard. They had those GIANT balls for some reason (maybe a certain booker compensating idk), Jimmy Uso coming real happy, YEETing before saying No YEET when he saw he was #2 Btw, I agree with Luke, we had too much fun at the Rumble watch party last year to call it a bad event.

To my understanding, the People’s Elbow was more protected than the Rock Bottom, so while I’d have always called both of them ‘finishers’ overall, the People’s Elbow is more of a match ender. Could totally be wrong though.

The reason Henry and Kurt main evented the Rumble in 2006 was cause Undertaker returned afterwards and "broke the ring with lightning"

I went to this show with my kids and have two memories of it. 1) The pop for Jericho's reveal was the loudest I've ever heard a crowd in that arena, and I've seen the Suns win Conference Playoff games to go to the NBA Finals there. 2) Standing at a urinal during the Rock's lame promo and hearing enough of it to say, "What? He's ripping off Dusty?" Like, the Rock is one of the greatest promos ever and instead of something original, he just straight up copied someone else's homework.

Dylan Campbell

Honestly whoever left that comment about not respecting out time has it wrong u guys spend 1 hour talking about the best bit and 3 hours talking about less fun part - the wrestling

I always thought it was Bottom because I found it weird/disrespectful (in a good way) when he pinned Cody last year with Elbow after Bottom instead of the other way around.

I will never stop loving your hatred for Jon Cena during this time period. Yes it's fun to see him now in his final year, but that's only because deep down we know he's leaving & the C-Nation will finally be over. Much love from Chicago!!

Adam Norton

As a music theatre fan, the Les Mis discussion pained me. "Jabert, that's Russell Crowe". Me Screaming at the Pod: "Before you say another word JAVERT..."

Jason Hughes

Fun fact! When it comes to the Bret Hart segment. That same night of that rumble. The Bret hart interview of the "hhh has 4/10 matches" aired on wrestletalk TV on challenge in the UK. I remember watching it that night before watching the rumble ppv.

I'm pretty sure Sheamus as "The Great White" was meant to be a shark, not Moby Dick, least thats how I always took it.

Edward Economous

Btw this is for Luke Charlotte won from 27 this year but he is correct that the last winner from 27 was Austin in 01🙂🙂

Hurf Himself

Cena was my childhood guy but going back and seeing him posing with anti cena fans... Ollie is right! He was always a heel! 😂

Wait seriously? Wwe is why they've stopped doing the fan watch alongs fucking hell that's bullshit

It made me cringe every time Luke said they were in Vegas. I know he doesn’t know better, but they were in Phoenix Arizona.

Rich LeClaire III

#votestobottom In regards to the a.j styles quote about Vince, he was actually saying that he tried to wrestle differently for WWE and after that match, Vince said he had 1000 guys who could wrestle that match like that, what makes you different as in show me why we hired you. Listen I hate Vince as much as anyone but its just not correct the way Luke said it. Also little side note, you have the show open on the PC... if you wanna show the video package, WATCH IT. Show it to us, I know literally all of us would like that.

And also some people are too lazy to use the fast forward button lmao

Edward Economous

Don't worry about what you talk about during these videos. Some people apparently haven't heard of the fast forward button. But me personally these videos are a good way for me to kill about 3 hours. And also because 2012 was when i stopped watching WWE untill 2017 so hearing your perspectives on this time is good stuff. Looking forward to WM 29 not a good Mania.

glad my "what's an ippv" got noticed. lol. guess there is no question as to if you are reading the comments

Alistair Martin Stewart

A counter to the ‘Not Respecting Time’ comment: I adore the insights into the life and times of Oli and Luke, peak radio host banter and it always gets a laugh out of me! Also, Oli never actually getting the movies and music reminds me of the contestants you sometimes get on Mastermind that utterly fumble the specialist subject round.
