That actually could've been an interesting storyline. If he showed up without the belt, they could've set up a rat race event where all the wrestlers competing for the title race to that tow lot to retrieve the belt.
Yeah... But that would have required that he let Vince know that he lost the belt. Vince is, well, he's not exactly known for having a lot of patience when people annoy him.
I'm a bugger fan of maven as a wrestler now than I am back than... went back and watched some of your matches. In context, watching the channel, I appreciate it more now.
It was an extra fee he had to pay for waking the lot owner up to give him access before they were even open so he could make his flight. Do you pay attention?
Maven you deserve much more viewers your content brings such a fresh insight into the business and your entertaining you got humor and most importantly honesty which wrestling fans love keep up the good work i honestly never really knew who maven was and what exactly his character was but ever since i found your youtube channel i starter watching your wrestling you were pretty underrated man
Hey Maven, im not like a "Maven mark" or anything, but man your channel is SUPER informative, and gives great perspective on the "behind the scenes of kayfabe". I appreciate it!
I saw Paige's divas belt in those videos that leaked. I'm shocked they actually let them take it home. I can't imagine the things some of them would do with it.
Well they do put up a deposit for the big gold ones AFAIK. Also it limits the responsibilities to one individual, can you imagine having an intern/backstage guy or two assigned to take those belts from place? It could quickly get lost conveniently or simply get left behind in the shuffle. Chris Jericho said in an interview that when he won both world championships (undisputed champion) he posed naked wearing only those. He made it seem as if it's a thing most if not all of them do.
Lmfao why wouldn't they let them take it home? That's ignorant as hell of you to say. If you're a child I get it if you thought that as a kid. The belts belong to the wrestlers and it's not just for show and kept under their ownership I guarantee you many wrestlers wouldn't be scratching tooth and nail for the title shots if they didn't get to wear it personally. It will get taken away from you if you do something very dangerous or stupid in your personal life with it.
Honestly the Hardcore Titlebelt was My favorite one out of the entire Belt line of the WWE. Unique in its Bizarre design and as well as its rules of how one was to win under its conditions.
Did you get a replica with it? I thought wrestlers get two belts, one for televised shows and one is a replica you could keep even if you lose the belt
@@user-zv5jd6yg7zthe replica he is talking about is a copy of the original that wwe gives the wrestlers so they can keep it kind of like a trophy, the likes of Eddie guerrero and Kurt Angle were shown having those copies of the undisputed wwe title in their locker room during 2002-2004 same as john cena who had the us and wwe spinner belts at his house during the segment where edge went to his home to beat up his dad in 2006.
Championships and stuff like that they have replicas because when you see him in their houses you see championship belt sitting behind them yeah it's just a replica just like what you would buy but a little higher quality
It’s quite funny hearing stories of when people have taken belts when the design has been retired or they just needed a cleaner one for tv. Usually they end up taking them purely because they weren’t told not to take it.
I always thought they took it with them. Look at Logan now going everywhere with his but i remember reading or watching somethings few years back where production do take it/use a different one for TV just so that it cant be lost or misplaced by the wrestler but i could be wrong
Bruh, talk about perfect timing Mav, cause they would've chewed your ass up if you came in "see what had happened was, my car got towed" 😂 funny story and congratulations on all your success 👏🏽🎉
Funny thing is, they do confiscate the belt and tell them it will be at the next show now. Because the belt you see on TV is not the belt you see at a live show or a media appearance.
I’m sure WWE has alternate options like other dummies or identical replicas. Sure there would have been atleast handful of wrestlers who either misplaced the belt or simply forgot to bring it
Idk where he was, but Texas has restrictions on how much you can charge for tow services. $500 is crazy for a night. Even if he went past 12am, they shouldn't be charging more than $200.
I’ve heard that WWE will give a replica belt to someone who’s won that championship. Like them giving an Intercontinental Championship replica to Gunther for example
I always thought they just made more cause so many people get so many belts and keep them so long in cases and out sn about it only makes sense to have more than 1 of each
Maven certain his mark in the WWE. Eliminating The Undertaker from a Royal Rumble as well as winning a title (Hardcore) at Wrestlemania 18 while hijacking the former champion (Christian’s) cab out of the arena! I was in the crowd that night in Toronto and laughed my ass off.
Maven was the main eventer of course wwe let him keep the belt… no one tells maven no. He even ran the the locker room for a bit He almost had to stomp the undertaker out but he didn’t want to embarrass him in front of everyone, that just shows how humble Maven really truly is and despite being a main eventer. Truly a great guy we love you maven keep it up. And if you ever decide to make a return to wwe they better put the wwe championship on you!
Imagine holding a belt that other greats have held. That alone is pretty sick.
malt liquor!
What if it's a new design and you're the first to have it? Will it still count as something other legends had?
@@coltonwilkie241 that's probably a yes and no same title but different belt
@@user-ws2iv9ch6i malt licky
Then you've got Logan Paul posing with it wrapped around his naked waist...
Lol the tow guy went hardcore on his wallet!
and new hardcore champion "Tow Truck Driver"!
Didn't have to get thrown off a ladder 3 times to get it either
Lmfaoo 😂😂😂
He literally cashed in his Money in the Bank for that belt
@@whaduzitmatrhis wwe name would be something like “Driver Dave” knowing Vince at the time lol
Plot twist the tow truck driver was the Repo Man.
Or it was Simon Miller time travelling, dressed like the Repo Man.
@@teresaravenshaw5477 🤔 Now you are thinking!
Lizard truck trowing?
Underrated comment
😆 😆 😂😂😂😂
Oh I get it
WWF “new” generation era Humour I see
Maven look like The Mummy in full form
Maven is wearing more makeup than a 70 yr old on Easter Sunday!
@@manofsteel3396😂
u wrong for that, lmao.
I honestly think he looked better when he had the bushy eyebrows or he should get them done but not so skinny. He’s just got Italian eyebrows.
looks like a lesbian auntie
One of the many appeals of Maven is he owns up to his mistakes.
That actually could've been an interesting storyline. If he showed up without the belt, they could've set up a rat race event where all the wrestlers competing for the title race to that tow lot to retrieve the belt.
That championship scramble would’ve been so dope at the lot haha
Yeah... But that would have required that he let Vince know that he lost the belt. Vince is, well, he's not exactly known for having a lot of patience when people annoy him.
if he'd come to him with this idea at the same time, there would have been a chance. @@RandomPerson-nd2ey
How about a hardcore match at the tow lot.
Brilliant!
I'm a bugger fan of maven as a wrestler now than I am back than... went back and watched some of your matches. In context, watching the channel, I appreciate it more now.
*then
500 bucks?? Geez he definitely gave ya a stone cold stunner on that one 😂😂
It was a great fee
ive paid worse in San Fran..

What happened to him?

Paige already answered this question for me 💀
Fellow man of culture... lol
Lol took me a second
imagine getting the belt after her knowing what has been on that belt lol
@@newyoricanboyI remember when those videos leaked coincidently NXT got new belts the next week.
This is such a great channel. I remember your comeup in WWF very well. This is such a great insider/outsider perspective, thanks for sharing.
My Brother once said he met you and you were one of the coolest guys that you actually talked to the fans thats why I follow you
Hey Maven, im not like a "Maven mark" or anything, but man your channel is SUPER informative, and gives great perspective on the "behind the scenes of kayfabe".
I appreciate it!
Listen I thought that was Jada in the thumbnail till I put my glasses on 😅
😩😂
That is a cool thing to know maven when I grow up I want to be a wwe superstar and that is useful information!
It is not useful lol
Maven is such a humble man. Love his contents!

Brother… you’re about as real and cool as a person can be. I always enjoy your videos and you always remain respectful to the sport. 👍🏽
I feel like every single Maven video I watch starts with ‘I almost got in trouble for..’ 😂
Always loved the look of the hardcore title,Like it was destroying and taped back together 😂
been following Maven for a couple of months.. great TH-cam channel..

Did you get a replica with it? I thought wrestlers get two belts, one for televised shows and one is a replica you could keep even if you lose the belt
I think it is a more recent trend. When Maven wrestled, that belt was it. Online shopping was not as convenient either in the early 2000s.

@@the_sam_strongyeah they probably didn’t do that with the hardcore champion hahaha
I know that stone cold got one of the classic ones from the 90's when they changed the belt during one of his title reins.
@@rj6thstreet yeah, with how often that belt got passed around like a hot potato?
Maven has always come off as down to earth. I remember when he was wrestling.
Championships and stuff like that they have replicas because when you see him in their houses you see championship belt sitting behind them yeah it's just a replica just like what you would buy but a little higher quality
YEAH, NO
Great we got Maven explaining wrestling to us. The man's career was so short, if you blinked you would have missed it.
Seems like such a wise man
Good to see
no one is taking my belt. it holds my pants up for crying out loud.
Now a days they have belts on deck at the show. In case somone happens to forget theirs or somthing happens to one of em they dont run into a problem.
It’s quite funny hearing stories of when people have taken belts when the design has been retired or they just needed a cleaner one for tv. Usually they end up taking them purely because they weren’t told not to take it.
Maven looks more and more like the killer winnie the pooh
Bro forgot to clean off last nights make up
I think the big championships have multiple renditions like one for photos, one for live events, and one to travel with
This zesty mf rly was a hardcore champion
Lmao
A lot of them were secretly gay, queen or feminine back then believe it or not.
lol
vince got to him
he's a lesbian lol
I think it makes it cooler that there is one belt and not duplicates. It makes the reward more meaningful
Maven with them eyebrows.
Thank Stephanie for that!
*other wrestler wins the championship match*
Ref: Where’s the belt?
Maven: 🤷🏽
Wish WWE gave him more promo microphone time, he's actually very well spoken with a good speaking voice
Do more of these segments maven!!
Maven should have kicked the tow guy like he did the undertaker in royal rumble
You had a phenomenal build.
Jericho comes to mind hahaha
I can imagine Maven pulling into the spot yelling *"The Hardcore Champ parks wherever he wants!"*
I always thought they took it with them. Look at Logan now going everywhere with his but i remember reading or watching somethings few years back where production do take it/use a different one for TV just so that it cant be lost or misplaced by the wrestler but i could be wrong
Belts and bars never mix well.
He's evolving into looking like someone great aunt eye brows, makeup and all.
I've never heard of this guy but he seems chill
Maven looks sus af
That translation 😅
he been a fruitcake
The stomach does look sizzling! Well said.
Bro went to a bar with the hardcore title lmao
Nowadays they have 3 titles. 1 for television, 1 for house shows and 1 to keep home. The other 2 stay at WWE headquarters.
$500 for being towed?! These ppl r evil thieves.
This is probably why they have 2 replicas and keep the real one secured
One for media and appearances, another for show and the real one for tv
My buddy Melvin. I loved you as a wrestler when I was a kid
“Not having the belt ain’t an option, huh…?” -Tow guy
Bruh, talk about perfect timing Mav, cause they would've chewed your ass up if you came in "see what had happened was, my car got towed" 😂 funny story and congratulations on all your success 👏🏽🎉
Maven the type of bloke u can sit down at a bar with and talk for hours
I always forgot how badass the Hardcore belt was. Now I want to own one.
I've heard some wrestlers say it's actually kind of a rib being a champion cause now you gotta travel with that thing from town to town.
Jericho should have learned that lesson as well 🤣🤣
I love Maven. He's piercing the vail.
Cool. What about all the other titles?
Funny thing is, they do confiscate the belt and tell them it will be at the next show now. Because the belt you see on TV is not the belt you see at a live show or a media appearance.
I always thought they got to keep them and a new one was made every time.
And this is why WWE has 3 belts made of each belt one for champ to take everywhere, back up, and a photo shoot belt
I heard that now there are replica of every belts in case a superstar forget or lose his belt.
the audio so crispy
Maven is a joy to listen to
I have the big green belt that Bob Backlund, Iron Sheik, and Hulk Hogan had. Even has the names of the former champions on the small plates
Plot twist: the tow truck driver was Mick
I’m sure WWE has alternate options like other dummies or identical replicas. Sure there would have been atleast handful of wrestlers who either misplaced the belt or simply forgot to bring it
wrestlers get replicate of belt forever
Youd think wwe could afford it , ufc fighters get their own belt made when they win o.O
HBK kept the Intercontinental belt...He didn't send it back.
The wwf had to make a new one for Razor.
I thought this was gonna be an ad for RuPauls drag race 😂😂
When you wrestle for the WWE and win a Championship, you can order a copy of whatever belt you're currently holding, for yourself.
Idk where he was, but Texas has restrictions on how much you can charge for tow services. $500 is crazy for a night. Even if he went past 12am, they shouldn't be charging more than $200.
Numerous guys have said to the contrary. Rock, austin, and hogan all talk about keeping SOME of the belts they had "won"
Yes, they keep their belts..
My dad still has his belt from the 70's
Imagine you keep the Hardcore Champ, being recognised and there is the barkeeping Referee in the bar.
Get smacked and pinned by a local bruiser
I’ve heard that WWE will give a replica belt to someone who’s won that championship. Like them giving an Intercontinental Championship replica to Gunther for example
Mavens transition into a woman is coming along nicely
He probably could have been great if WWE could have found the right character for him.
They don’t get to keep the actual belts. They get given a replica of the title they have and that’s what they get to keep
I’d forget it the next day
I know MMA fighters, specifically UFC fighters keep their Championship Belts.
Austin has some of them. I believe the IC belt he won from Owen and the last winged eagle.
I always thought they just made more cause so many people get so many belts and keep them so long in cases and out sn about it only makes sense to have more than 1 of each
Miz has all his belts still, same with Edge. You can see the Belts on Miz TV show and Edge belts was show at the Chris
Thanks for sharing.
The questions lol. Do wwe wrestlers get hurt?
I'd imagine unless the whole thing is a green screen animated work😂

All you need is a wig and boom , Madea lol
I remember when Walters now known as Gunther United Kingdom championship belt was stolen
This is not the come down I was expecting after Wrestlemania
I see some of the more popular wrestlers with their belts at their homes long after not being the champ anymore
the greatest championship in wrestling history
I assumed they had spare belts
