I still think Simon reviewing some old ECW would be pretty entertaining.. Lets try Barely Legal 97 this week Taz vs Sabu RVD vs Lance Storm Terry Funk vs Sandman vs Stevie Richards for a title match against Raven
Do WCW Nitro from Jan 1999, the Fingerpoke of Doom Episode. (Also the same episode where Tony Schiavone gave away Mankind’s Raw title win causing 600k viewers to switch channels).
The main event is a prime example of Triple H's failed ego booking, literally everyone knew that Taker vs HBK should've closed the show but HHH booked himself to win in the main event
As someone who was there in Houston and saw this live, HBK vs. Taker is is not only 5 star, I doubt 10 better matches ever could be found. It had everything you could ask for, and delivered on it all. The energy in the arena was undeniable.
Next should be "Summerslam 2002"...One of the best wwe ppv.The in ring return of shawn michaels after 4 years,Brock becoming champion by defeating The Rock,Angle vs mysterio,Flair vs jericho,edge vs eddie,rvd vs benoit...The ppv was full of awesome matches
@@sagnikmustafi2374 Agreed. Shawn Michaels vs Undertaker was the GREATEST WRESTLING MATCH EVER! Not the one that WWE called the "greatest wrestling match ever" which was just a good wrestling match.
Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels is a Five-star match. Next week, please, please Let's Do Judgment Day 2000 - Rock vs HHH (Iron Man Match) - Shawn Michael on Referee duties and The Biker Undertaker makes debut!! COME ON PEOPLE, VOTE FOR JUDGMENT DAY 2000!!!
Raw is War 04 January 1999 the show where Mick Foley won his first World Championship. It wasn't the highest rated show because Nitro was still good at the time but it was one of the most memorable.
I always look forward to ups & downs videos. Even if the pay-per-view is a disappointment, Simon always brings a level of entertainment to this approach that just works so well for me. At this point, I watch just about anything that he makes. I don't have to worry about whether it will be worth my time or not.
Honestly, the Wrestlemania HBK vs. Taker was every main NXT event from 2017-2019. Near falls, “shocked faces”, finisher spamming. With no real character or story reason for anything happening. In terms of how Meltzer grades matches it should be 5 stars. In my opinion, the match has good wrestling but it’s not this perfect match. The name value carried it more than the in-ring story.
I really just can't grasp the fact that a match that spams a dozen finishers is rated higher than this classic. It kills the suspense that maybe Wrestler A or Wrestler B is at risk of losing.
Was the only Wrestlemania Ive attended. Even the nosebleeds, the atmosphere was on fire. Alot of us gave all our energy to the Shawn Michaels vs The Undertaker match. It was unreal
So many good matches in this PPV Jeff Hardy vs Matt Hardy Extreme Rules That 21 sec Joker Mysterio vs JBL was funny and great! HBK vs The Undertaker (Probably the Best Match ever!) The Triple Threat with Cena vs Edge vs Big Show (That AA picking both of then up was insane) Jericho being an absolute heel of heels. And the Kid Rock concert was pretty freaking cool IMO. And let's no forget the MITB match! (Where it should always be... at WM)
How about a review for AAA When World’s Collide, when Mexican wrestling tried breaking the United States market. Bloody good show as well, and basically led to several wrestlers (especially Eddy Guerrero, who was in one of the main events) being signed for ECW and later WCW
I traveled to Houston from NJ with a couple of friends who bought a Wrestlemania travel package with me to go see this one and while most of the card is forgettable, I'm so grateful that I was there live for Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels. It was the best match I've ever seen in person and my 2nd favorite WWE match of all time.
I dont remember what the ppv was but whenever I think about vintage wrestling the first that comes to mind is when Lex Luger bodyslams Yokozuna. Also, Simon, your the only reason I watch this channel tbh. Your the GOAT lmao.
Undertaker vs Michaels match is the 5 🌟 classic of classics. I still say it's the greatest wrestling match ever. Including the build, nothing can ever out do this. Heard Meltzer didn't give it 5 stars cause of the guy not catching the Undertaker as he drove over the top ropes. Which is trash complaint.
Heroes of Wrestling is still my top pick, but I've seen lots of ECW suggestions & I'm fully up for that 👍 1997 ECW Barely Legal, anyone? Just please... not another WWE event
For me Taker vs HHH at WM25 is the best modern wrestling match ever. This was two Icons at their absolute prime go at it. That to me is true wrestling, not just physicality and moves... I'm from Africa... I remember that Sunday like yesterday. Everyone in my neighborhood knew About this😂😂😂😂
I still think Simon reviewing some old ECW would be pretty entertaining.. Lets try Barely Legal 97 this week
Taz vs Sabu
RVD vs Lance Storm
Terry Funk vs Sandman vs Stevie Richards for a title match against Raven
Finally getting some votes. He needs to do any ECW PPV lol
Plecase say triple threat. Three-way sounds to interesting
Interpromossional 6 man tag as well
I have said for years that the best HBK vs Taker match was the Bad Blood fight which was overshadowed by Kane's debut.
Ahhh the hockey guy! Love ur videos, keep up the good work sir.
Shut up. No more World Wrasslin Entertainment
@@muneebazhar2219 No. Lol
Cool. But I like the WM25 battle
That match was just a squash lol
Do WCW Nitro from Jan 1999, the Fingerpoke of Doom Episode. (Also the same episode where Tony Schiavone gave away Mankind’s Raw title win causing 600k viewers to switch channels).
WCW Nitro and WWF Raw 26th March 2001 - double ups and downs for a night no one expected
The last WWE show to air before Simon started Ups & Downs
Wrestlemania 32 I believe
Tna victory road: the one with Jeff hardy. You know the one
2011?
We all know the one
The forbidden PPV
☝️ this
@@ericperry1683 Yes. THAT one.
The main event is a prime example of Triple H's failed ego booking, literally everyone knew that Taker vs HBK should've closed the show but HHH booked himself to win in the main event
Bh
well to be fair the build for randy and HHH was really good
WWE called what Kane did to Christian a choke slam only because they didn’t want to admit, at that point, that Christian would ever get a push.
😂😂😂
😂😂
Thanks for all of these retros mate. Really gotten me through some crappy days this year. Very much appreciated
Simon hated women's battle royale so much that he turned into Phillipin Marks 😂
Suggestion: The last WCW Monday Nitro ever (2001)
Double ups and downs for January 4th 1999 edition of nitro and raw, the finger poke of doom and Mick Foley wins the wwf title
Where was the UP for the MITB ladder match?
Yeah no kidding
Vanished
Heroes of wrestling. Cmon we need this one reviewed
I was there! No joke, I was at Reliant Stadium for the event. That Taker vs. HBK match is one of the best ever. Period.
I'm pretty sure Steamboat was the first recipient of the "you still got it" chant.
I believe so too.
I think the taker Vs hbk is the first to have the "this is awesome" chant before it was overused lol
As someone who was there in Houston and saw this live, HBK vs. Taker is is not only 5 star, I doubt 10 better matches ever could be found. It had everything you could ask for, and delivered on it all. The energy in the arena was undeniable.
Heroes of wrestling ...and this time it should win
Since the next friday is on Christmas,Review the Raw where Alberto del rio hit Santa claus with his car.
He was mick Foley
Bruh.
Next should be "Summerslam 2002"...One of the best wwe ppv.The in ring return of shawn michaels after 4 years,Brock becoming champion by defeating The Rock,Angle vs mysterio,Flair vs jericho,edge vs eddie,rvd vs benoit...The ppv was full of awesome matches
Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels seemes like one long storyline fued that finally came to a close at wrestlemania 28.
Starrcade 1998 (end of Goldberg's streak). It was December 27th and my first PPV.
Heroes of wrestling, the worst event of all time
You can't get away that easy Simon
so we try again!
Yes
I agree with you on that one!!
You're fantastic, Simon. Thanks for all you do!
You should do Wrestlemania 30
The best wrestling match that still didn’t get 5 stars 🤦🏻♂️
There are lots of matches that didn't got 5 stars but this truly is the best Wrestling match ever
@@mickieb2409 Meltzer was high on Omega before Omega was cool
Its almost like meltzer opinion sucks
@@MahdiRanger it does suck.
@@sagnikmustafi2374 Agreed. Shawn Michaels vs Undertaker was the GREATEST WRESTLING MATCH EVER! Not the one that WWE called the "greatest wrestling match ever" which was just a good wrestling match.
So let’s finish the Shawn Michaels wrestlemania trifecta with wrestlemania 26.
NO NO NO
Did simon forget to give an up or down to the mitb match
yes he did. he probably did it on purpose to
Why would he have done that on purpose
@@rottenrose121 cuz he is bias😀😀
Do wrestlemania 30 ups and downs where Daniel Bryan overcomed all members of evolution in one night please
NO NO NO
Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels is a Five-star match.
Next week, please, please Let's Do Judgment Day 2000 - Rock vs HHH (Iron Man Match) - Shawn Michael on Referee duties and The Biker Undertaker makes debut!! COME ON PEOPLE, VOTE FOR JUDGMENT DAY 2000!!!
Wrestlemania 26 next please: it has streak vs career my favourite undertaker Michaels match
Yawn, more wwe fanboy stuff. Oh joy
@@Bonesaw_McGraw boo hoo.
NO NO NO
AJ Styles vs Samoa Joe vs, Christopher Daniels at TNA Unbreakable 2005 is the GOAT in my view
Welcome to day 5 of my petition to have Starcade '98 upped and or downed

Meltzer’s refusal to give Taker HBK five stars is exactly why his opinions shouldn’t be taken as gospel.
Agreed
Honestly, the Wrestlemania HBK vs. Taker was every main NXT event from 2017-2019. Near falls, “shocked faces”, finisher spamming. With no real character or story reason for anything happening.

Was the only Wrestlemania Ive attended. Even the nosebleeds, the atmosphere was on fire. Alot of us gave all our energy to the Shawn Michaels vs The Undertaker match. It was unreal
Can't believe it took Simon nearly 23 minutes to mention his tum tum
Didn't give the money in the bank match an up or a down, Simon!! I'd say it was an up ☝
Wrestlemania 22. Great matches from start to finish. Great crowd and city. And the last thing to say is an amazing Eddie tribute
Royal Rumble 2002, where Undertaker kills Maven.
Happy to say I was at this wrestlemania
Ground zero 1997. Taker and Shawn before hell in a cell!!
Royal Rumble 2014: CM Punk's last match; Batista wins RR; Bryan vs Wyatt
So many good matches in this PPV
Jeff Hardy vs Matt Hardy Extreme Rules
That 21 sec Joker Mysterio vs JBL was funny and great!
HBK vs The Undertaker (Probably the Best Match ever!)
The Triple Threat with Cena vs Edge vs Big Show (That AA picking both of then up was insane)
Jericho being an absolute heel of heels.
And the Kid Rock concert was pretty freaking cool IMO.
And let's no forget the MITB match! (Where it should always be... at WM)
Next retro ups and downs Lucha Underground's Ultima Lucha 1! Penta vs Vampiro is pure brutality. Thumbtacks light fixtures etc.
WCW Hog Wild 96 please
I tried thst at the beginning but it fell on deaf ears. Next week I'll vote for it
How about a review for AAA When World’s Collide, when Mexican wrestling tried breaking the United States market. Bloody good show as well, and basically led to several wrestlers (especially Eddy Guerrero, who was in one of the main events) being signed for ECW and later WCW
I remember that show!!! Perro Aguayo vs Connan was a bloody (pun intended) match too!!
Money In the bank 2010 (first MITB PPV. Nexus invasion, Kane finally winning the world title and getting a meaningful run, etc).
Simon forgetting he had on the wig is me forgetting to take off my mask inside 🥴 😂. I hate quarantine.
TLC 2009, DX vs Jeri-Show, Cena vs Sheamus... underrated event
That's the one event I don't ever watch, but then I be like "Why didn't I watch it?", pretty weird
Fully Loaded 1999, the end of an era first blood match
The introduction of RepoMan, you deserve this Simon
Travelled from Chicago to Houston for Wrestlemania 25, I was 9. Great times
Sept 13th episode of Smackdown, the first big event after 9/11. It was a really special show to look back on.
Now Chris Jericho is the 50 year old that is doing crazy spots
That's just what I was thinking too. Time is crazy...
victory road - sting vs jeff hardy
Backlash 2004. Orton vs foley in a hardcore match. Need I say more?
Retro ups and downs from Wrestlemania 26 🤘.
Favorite Mania
The first ever episode of TNA.
My bathroom trips either get a Golden Up or a Brown Down.
😆😆😆
Your not trash Simon you are gold. My favorite Michaels vs Taker match was the casket match from the 1998 Royal Rumble ppv
This made me want to watch Steamboat vs Jericho at Backlash 2009. Steamboat could put on a 5 star match with a block of wood...at 60 years old!
“I am loving this journey”
Sounds like it bro. We are too
OMG WHAT HAPPENED!? DID YOU GUYS SEE THAT? At 9:11 someone just came in and replaced Simon Miller! Thats crazy!
W25 Taker vs HBK was legendary!
Would love to see Simon rate Royal Rumble 2010, Undertaker vs Rey
When WWE is on, it's on. And HBK vs undertaker at 25 is peak wrestlemania. It's just the best.
I traveled to Houston from NJ with a couple of friends who bought a Wrestlemania travel package with me to go see this one and while most of the card is forgettable, I'm so grateful that I was there live for Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels. It was the best match I've ever seen in person and my 2nd favorite WWE match of all time.
Omg I love Simon Miller so much lol, he makes me laugh every video
Suggestions:
Starrcade 1997
Halloween Havoc 1998
Bash at the Beach 2000
WrestleMania 13
Have you not watched this channel lol? He did Halloween havoc 98
Review your favorite Shwan Taker match Simon,
Bad Blood 1997 first ever HIAC and Greatest Debut of all time.
can we have a retro TNA once?
Nope. Wwe fanboys won't vote for that
I dont remember what the ppv was but whenever I think about vintage wrestling the first that comes to mind is when Lex Luger bodyslams Yokozuna.
Also, Simon, your the only reason I watch this channel tbh. Your the GOAT lmao.
2006 Royal Rumble : Rey Mysterio Shocks The World!
Bad blood hell in a cell match was something I watched on VHS as a kid I love it so much
TLC 2011 cm punk vs the miz vs alberto de rio. Triple treat tlc match. Some good bumps was taken by all three men and the finish was great too
TNA Destination X, 2006, one of the greatest Ultimate X matches of all time. Samoa Joe v The Fallen Angel v AJ Styles
WWE Monday Night Raw. "Countdown to the New Millennium" Chris Jericho WWE debut.
Do ECW one night stand 2006: John Cena vs RVD
Steamboat turned the clock back. Unreal. Like he never retired. And Jericho is a perfect opponent.
Simon thank you for giving that Kid Rock concert a down.
I guess the money in the bank match isn’t an up or a down.
Hero’s of Wrestling must see
Next: Royal rumble 2015
HELL NOOOOOOO
No more wwe for the millionth time.
I’d love to see WCW, maybe Starrcade ‘97.
Uuuu\
The build for orton and HHH is still the best build ever. The match just never happened so lets agree there
WCW Starrcade 1997
Hogan vs Sting
Yeah man. I said that too
Undertaker vs Michaels match is the 5 🌟 classic of classics. I still say it's the greatest wrestling match ever. Including the build, nothing can ever out do this. Heard Meltzer didn't give it 5 stars cause of the guy not catching the Undertaker as he drove over the top ropes. Which is trash complaint.
Heroes of Wrestling is still my top pick, but I've seen lots of ECW suggestions & I'm fully up for that 👍
1997 ECW Barely Legal, anyone?
Just please... not another WWE event
9:10 Bah Gawd its Philip N Marx!!! He is here at WhatCulture!!!
We gotta bring this back! Retro ups and downs please!!
Holy sh*t guest appearance by Phillip N Marx. I was just here to watch Simon Miller! What a flippin surprise!?!?!?!
Giving HBK vs Taker 4.75 while giving Omega vs Okada 7 is the biggest load of shit I have ever registered in my brain.
Let’s watch Collision in Korea. It is such a fascinating thing!
For me Taker vs HHH at WM25 is the best modern wrestling match ever.
This was two Icons at their absolute prime go at it. That to me is true wrestling, not just physicality and moves...
I'm from Africa... I remember that Sunday like yesterday.
Everyone in my neighborhood knew About this😂😂😂😂
" Hell Yeah i'm bangin' the General Manager " my fucking sides xD
Now I'm wondering is wrestlemania 26 taker and micheals the 5 star match?
Let's get wrestlemania 26 next week.
11:19 Simon Miller returns, I wonder who the guy was with the hair
Phlip n marks
Or Backlash 2009 (Ricky Steamboat vs Chris Jericho)
