*WHAT HAPPENED TO THE VENUE?* Opening in 1974, Kansas City's Kemper Arena hosted the NHL's Kansas City Scouts for 2 seasons before their relocation to Denver, Colorado in 1976 (where they later moved from again in 1982 to become the New Jersey Devils), as well as the NBA's Kansas City Kings until their relocation to Sacramento, California in 1985. It was the site of Owen Hart's tragic death in May 1999, 3 months before the first episode of Smackdown aired, and it also hosted the Chris Benoit/Bret Hart tribute match to him on WCW Nitro later that October. Events at the arena declined following the opening of the Sprint Center in 2007, and in 2016 the arena was closed and turned into a youth sports center, reopening as such in October 2018 under the new name Hy-Vee Arena.
A number of "Captivating Careers" you should do: Harley Race El Santo Giant Baba Antonio Inoki Hiroshi Tanahashi Mick Foley Terry Funk Minoru Suzuki Vader Dusty Rhodes Rey Mysterio Bubba Ray Dudley/Bully Ray
Albany NY had alot of the huge moments happen at it. Rebirth of DX after WM14, the Austin beer truck, the tag team buried alive, the 1992 royal rumble. All apart of the great history known as the wwe
imo Terrific vid. Vids like this really highlight how much women's wrestling has improved. That said, there were some awesome women wrestlers on SDL back then. imo
Nice video alot of great talent have passed RIP also had no idea Finkel wasn't doing well hope he can pull through. The ones that are alive seem to be doing well. Look at Debra doing her thing. Congrats
Its really nice to see most of these people doing well for themselves! Even though they didnt necessarily do well in wrestling, its really heart warming to see most of them succeeding in life post-WWF
Drink every time Adam says "and now they host a podcast"
Name Explain was wondering when I was gonna see you in the comments on a wrestling video my man
Hyasconi one of these days I’ll make a video about wrestler names.
directrl from an overdose
*looks at clock* 8:30 am
Challenge accepted
So, can you explain Smackdown in your channel?
Raw is red
Smackdown is blue
I came for the theme song
And so did you
🎶 What happened to that Wrestler 🎶
I did!
💦 💦 💦 💦 💦 💦 💦 💦 💦 💦 💦
This is very true
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Lillian Garcia also cage announces for LFA an MMA organisation as of early 2019.
She's amazing at it. And truly ageless.
The 6 dislikes are from Kai En Tai memebers since only the manager was mentioned in the song
michael williams and the other 2 are fans of those members
Jerry Lawler just completed his veterinary degree. He specializes in puppies now.
Lol. Very clever
hahaaaa. that was good
Isn't it weird he was obsessed with puppies yet married Ms Kitty
Doctor: Beardless Big Show isn't real. He can't hurt you.

Well I mean you just explained what happened to those venues so why would they want to make a video about that now
@@KlaugKnaughrt - Who said anything about wanting them to make a video about it?
Nifty.
I stopped what I was doing just to listen to the theme tune and watch the video.
The patient can wait.
Did the patient survive?...
@@cristiannavarro7035 We all have to take a loss every now and then.....
A number of "Captivating Careers" you should do:
Harley Race
El Santo
Giant Baba
Antonio Inoki
Hiroshi Tanahashi
Mick Foley
Terry Funk
Minoru Suzuki
Vader
Dusty Rhodes
Rey Mysterio
Bubba Ray Dudley/Bully Ray
You forgot to mention that Lillian Garcia is now the ring announcer for Professional Fighters League (PFL).
Bossman was 41 when he passed?! And of a heart attack? Wtf!
@@RealDSmithCincy Nah probably because he had been massively overweight for 20 years
Sweater vest > Shield bullet proof vest
I'm a simple man. I see What Happened To.... and click for the song
Same.
The coolest intro in the history of mankind. Probably ever.
So a combination of....
Still with WWE,
AEW,
Dead,
Podcasting,
or the obscure odd thing you wouldn't expect
Basically. Or the Mayor.
"Existing shows with rating woes."
You're a poet and didn't even know it.
I wonder how many are either backstage producers or have a podcast.
I'll never be able to put into words how much I love that theme song, gawd bless you Pacitti
Can’t believe Y2J Is older than the Big Show!!!!!
Shane McMahon still involved in WWE? I'd not noticed!
Seeing Pacciti’s head bobbing up and down while on that piano makes my day every day. Brilliant 😂😂
Best intro on TH-cam
1:09 is when the theme song starts
When your favorite superstar of all time is covered last... 😁
Me: I need a great intro.
Adam: *inhales*
That intro truly doesn’t get old.
It’s like he didn’t start the fire, but...
So many greats gone. RIP Luna and Sherri, & Chyna. Also, would like to see Shamrock on Smackdowns anniversary show
This is possibly my favorite intro of anything ever..... even better than game of thrones
🤔 perhaps if they combined them somehow...
The buried alive match big show and under taker against mankind and rock is best of all time
A really fun match. I think it's also Taker's last match before going on his hiatus?
MrAzmatMahmood yea
I was there live for that.
Will Conrad dude that would be insane

Terrific vid.

I saw this the night it aired as a kid. Thanks for the video, really takes me back.
Congrats to Maffew! Botchamania got a mention on the GM Mode finale episode by Woods and Breeze. Timestamp 53:13
Thank you I enjoyed this program very much.
As always the channel produces a very good product that is extremely well researched and presented.
Best video series on any wrestling channel. Keep up the great work fellas!
Nice video alot of great talent have passed RIP also had no idea Finkel wasn't doing well hope he can pull through. The ones that are alive seem to be doing well. Look at Debra doing her thing. Congrats
As soon as the title says "what happened" on a cultaholic vid...I'm here just to hear the theme and see Mr pacitti's troll Face
12 likes 2 views proves how good you are!!!
Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker are the only two WWF wrestlers to both appeared on the very first Raw and first SmackDown.
These videos are more must watch than the wwe this year
Miss all the smackdown wrestlers
taka michinoku gail Kim and
D Lo Brown.
I miss late 90's and early 00's women's wrestling. I also love today's women's wrestling
What happened to every wrestler in "What Happened To That Wrestler?" song, DO IT PLEASE PACHEEZY!
I randomly sing "what happened to that wrestler!" When I'm at work. I hate you
4:42 Did King Kong Bundy and Big Show fuse into one being while I wasn't watching?
I was at the pilot when the Corporate Ministry was born. The New Haven Colosseum isn't even there anymore.
Best Theme ever.
Lol what song did u remix 🤣🤣🤣 I love it
We didnt start the fire is what it sounds like
Quite surprising how many of the superstars on the list are still with the company in some capacity
Its really nice to see most of these people doing well for themselves! Even though they didnt necessarily do well in wrestling, its really heart warming to see most of them succeeding in life post-WWF
Lmao something bout the intro always makes me laugh. Like it.
What Happened to every competitor of the cruiserweight classic
That damn intro song is catchy.
I still have the wwf smackdown 1/2 games for ps1
Gotta love the classics
I love the intro song!
Wasn't this guy part of whatculture ?
SmackDown was first broadcast on the exact day of my birth.
I was 5 when Smackdown first aired. That’s crazy.
I was 3
Damn both of you.
I was 16...😭
The "What happened to that wrestler" song is so cringey.......I love it
I'm more shocked that, Billy Gunn is a year older than, The Undertaker.
Billy is in better shape
The intro always makes me smile
I think they need to have Austin be a talent scout also
Who else watches mainly for the intro song?
Jericho is also the front runner of a band. Not going to mention that?
There must be an alternate Universe out there where Test married Stephanie, Triple H retired and Test manages NXT.
What Happened To Every Wrestler From WWE Smackdown's
First Episode?
Mason Ryan, Stevie Ray, Earthquake, Alundar Blayze
That intro will never get old
Are there any Earthquake vs Bam Bam Bigelow matches on TH-cam? I would like to see them!
Whatculture=WWE
CULTAHOLIC=WCW
OSW REVIEW=ECW
Is the opening song on iTunes?
I need to download that bad boy
I turned 3 the day smackdown debuted that's amazing didnt know that
Sometimes I come to these videos and just start screaming
*”MASON RYAN, STEVIE RAY, EARTHQUAKE, ALUNDRA BLAYZE”*
If smackdown is on fox on october 4th will they still have a SD on tuesday october 1st?
You one of my favourite youtuber keep it going on
Wait, so how many wrestlers got a podcast?
Anyone else watching this in 2020 when Howard Finkel passed away 😢😢😢😢😭😭😭😭
What song is that beat from in the beginning
I can't be the only one who A) needs a full version of that theme song, and B) gets a little emotional during it.
Very eye catching thumbnail
No mention of Sean Waltman's injury, disappointed.
I’m really glad that you’re my friend
Title: what happened to every wrestler
First two entries: Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler
Both have wrestled. Its not called "everyone that had a match"
@@FGHHJazz HMMM
WWF smackdown first episode!
Can we get the what happened to every wrestler in our intro song video please?
8:31 BCW Isn’t just a filler company in 2k19 career mode!
Does everyone have a podcast these days?.
Where is Ross when you need them for the Shane segment
Triple h is the new john Laurinaitis
Lol “what’s a crown jewel”😂
Is the theme song to what happen on iTunes??
And rip all who have missed!!!! Love you
This song is such a bop.
Its not Conrad Thompson its Con-Artist Thompson...
tripple H as god of war in live action remake
AWESOME SONG
I think you should have counted the Smackdown pilot and did that first.
They already did I'm pretty sure
Nvm that was Smackdown Draft Picks my bad
Here for the song, and whatever the hell else they said after it.
Time to hear the theme again. :)
Very good
Ken Shamrock and Al Snow, talk about two dudes who still look great for their age
Where was all the wrestlers that we don't know about kianti Adam bomb ect.
