- On this episode: "Oh, you didn't know?!" Bruce and Conrad proudly bring to you three hours about one of the greatest tag teams in the woooooorld, "the Badass" Billy Gunn and "the Roaddog" Jesse James -- the New Age Outlaws! How could the Roadie and Rockabilly ever possibly compete for screen time with Stone Cold, the Rock, Triple H, the Undertaker, Mankind, and a locker room filled with Hall of Famers? Bruce explains how an unlikely pairing became bonafide superstars during the biggest boom in wrestling history! How did James get back in "good graces" with Vince after walking out with Jarrett? Rockabilly with Honky, who booked this ish?! Who saw something in this pairing? Where did the intro come from? Did the Road Warriors have an issue with putting over this new pairing? Plus you'll get more details about the Dumpster Match at Mania 14, the first major RAW after Mania, DX invading Nitro, the DX break-ups and reunions, addiction issues, some resentment in the locker room over Roaddog's push, Austin refusing to work a match with Gunn, the Rock sealing Gunn's fate as a singles star, Mr. Ass, Chyna, Billy G, K-Kwik, and somehow we wind up learning about what Vince McMahon watches on television. PLUS a major announcement closes the show: a WORLD CHAMPION joins us in Houston for our live show in two weeks. Join us at www.BoxOfGimmicks.com!

This was back when wrestling was great, and me an my friends would start the oh you didn’t know whenever we walked into any place. Best tag team champs ever.
Starts at 19:30
These always help thanks 🤘🏽
Thank you
@@subarashiiashi3894 I accept all currency lol jk
@@ROSTAFA I might be able to venmo an IOU
They didn't use it a lot, but the Outlaws did have a team finisher, that being the spike piledriver.
I remember them doing that
Iu
I lost it when Vince McMahon is describing Mr. Ass lmao
“Ahh Cartman! You gave him a name!” Dude, Conrad, Vince’s TV interests needs to be a whole show.
1:17:10 awesome story about the legendary Terry Funk 😂 such a good impression too
I saw them in 98 in Cedar Rapids Iowa Billy Gunn was a lot bigger in person then he looked on TV
Prove it
Thats what everyone says. Yes es huge, hes a pro wrestler. A Real one
Greatest thing ever when they put cactus and Charlie in the dumpster and tipped it over the edge of the high stage. Best single angle in a long time at the time. cool to see everyone to pretend to break character and even Vince came out and gave them a dressing down. I was sold on these troublemakers permanently then
I cant believe they didn't touch on the week after the dumpster incident...when the Outlaws did a reenactment with the dolls....funniest skit in WWE history..🤣🤣🤣
Well done, Bruce & Conrad! Really enjoy the show!
This is a great example about how conrad claims he does research but apparently doesn't watch the TV show. Or he would ask such stupid questions.
Just so everyone knows, it was Sean Waltman that started suck it. He started it in WCW and Hall and Nash started doing it. Then Waltman went to The WWF and The New Age Outlaws and DX started doing it. The more you know!
Stony420 it's a shame who couldn't reinvent himself after DX. Dudes just been the same character since the nwo.
HHH & HBK were telling Sgt Slaughter & other wrestlers like Brett Hart to suck it before X-Pac came back to WWF tho
X-Pac started the crotch chop yes, the suck it part was added by Shawn and Triple H, and that was 6-9 months before he came back the night after Mania.
"Bret I have to words for ya...suck it...and I have more words...." HBK told Bret to suck it in 97....
If you listen closely bret or owen say "you guys can suck it" to hhh shawn as he sits at the table with jr off mic on a hot mic they then repeat it just cant remember which raw its 97 im sure
My favorite tag team of all time! Never forget when My grandmother dropped off me and my brother for haircuts, he talked our barber into cutting "SUCK IT" in the back of his head. Needless to say when my grandmother seen it she took my brother back in cut a promo on the barber and had him shave his head! LMAO 🤣
Terry funk is a straight up bad ass...his age...the cumulative abuse...no wonder I loved those guys as a kid. thanks for the memories legend
Starts at 19:30. You’re welcome.
the ncb41 for what Man the damn thing has the timestamp in the description... you're welcome?
jackie thompson the description has been edited since the day it was uploaded.
Not to mention that the timestamps don't work in the smartphone app, so thank you.
Thanks 👌
Thanks, Dude =)
The first time I went to a WWF show was in either 1999 or 2000 and I can’t remember. I live in North Carolina and before the Monday night wars the WWF didn’t come here all the time, it might be once every three years or something , But the new age outlaws were a big part of that show and those two have always been my favorite WWF tag team of all time.
I live in Atlanta and Raw didn't come until the war was basically over in October of 99 but it was glorious... pile of dog shit and all
Probably one of the greatest tag teams in history. When they were over, they were way over there.
Road Warrior Hawk: Well Mr Dogg and Welllll Mr Ass 😂
Beautiful Bobby def had a singles run in the mid 90s in WCW
Road Dog was my favorite DX member. Didn't know his brother Brad passed. God rest his soul and help his family.
Wasn't sure if this one was going to be good but I'm glad I was wrong another great one good job guys alot of things I didn't know about these two
I finally got a chance to listen to that song Bruce keeps singing on here lol. God they played that video EVERY week but it was pretty catchy. Road Dogg can belt it man!
I went to vaule village the other day and in the toys I found 1998 ba Billy gun and road dog , both in a plastic baggy together, I wonder if the employee knew they were tag team partners , had both these figs as a kid ,glad to have em back in my collection
Another great episode.
Love this show but if i hear chat me up one more time im gonna tear my eyebrows off lol
Chat me up, rumor and innuendo, I love u for that, in ma head, Prichard's JR impression, Prichard's Cornette impression, Prichard laughing and talking at the same time. Oh and the worst of em all..."Meltzer said". Love the show.
Chad Pugh what say you
Chat me up. Hypothetically, what would it sound like if jerry jarrett said "chat me up"

*eyeroll*
I remember Bart laying Billy out across the top rope. Young me was absolutely convinced it was real. Been a Billy Gunn fan ever since.
Austin gets pretty much all of the credit for winning the war with WCW for WWF. But The New Age Outlaws, Mick Foley, and The Rock played extremely important supporting roles in this happening. Bret Hart being a heel was awesome as well.
Rock and Foley didn't start getting hot until the Fall of 98. WWF overtook WCW in the ratings in the Spring of 98 mostly due to Austin and DX.
TINKlE TINKLE PISS GODAMMIT!!! 🤣🤣
U better call somebodddy! Best tag team of the late 90s era
I remember watching Billy gunn do an interview after he won the king of the ring. After every word he'd take a deep breath. I always thought that was interesting. Now I see why.
Crack
AT 1:33:00 DX would have got their ass beat if WCW opened up and let out Meng & Barbarian alone. They had allot of badasses working for WCW at the time.
10:40 Funny how times goes and things change. Lol
Great show
1:39:00
I remember the Outsiders had a tag match match before where Scottt attempted pin Nash to win. I believe that was sometime.in 96 or 97.
Is there a "Feed me to Meng" T-Shirt?
Umm Road Dogg cones from a wrestling family. He obviously knows more than you're giving him credit for.
Let truth be told, Billy Gunn is one of the most athletic and agile wrestlers of all time
Lewis Jones Billy Gunn agile? No
He just wasn't good on the mic was his down fall
Not really
Every cruiserweight in the world is cracking up with laughter. 😂
Hey road dogg it's "oh you didn't know, your ASS better call somebody" say ass it's not going to hurt you!!!
Love the green Jello background
39:26 will never get old
Road Dogg was a better worker than Billy Gunn? Bruce Prichard is literally the only person I've ever heard say that. RD was the personality and charisma, but Gunn was the solid worker.
Alexander Hancock Yeah he’s bugging. Gunn was definitely better in the ring and Road Dogg made his living as the mouthpiece
Gunn=better physical worker
Rdog=better overall worker
Omo
From what I remember watching as a teenager I'd have to agree with you. Billy was the better worker, but Road Dogg was the personality and voice of the team. He was also the one that really put them on the map when he'd be on the mic before they even left the backstage area. He was the first one to do this schtick successfully and it really got over with the fans.
Road dog was the better seller but billy looked much better in the ring.
Alexander Hancock the thing is Billy couldn’t work solo because of his asthma.
I chortle every time they say: "Tank"
3:03:25 GIMME THE BELT I'LL BEAT EVERYBODY
This channel is soo great! thank you guys for making my workdays a little easier with you're great insights and humor
Roaddog had decent sized guns. He kind of had a Raven physique.
Kev P raven used to have a good physique back in the day but drugs and alcohol took its toll. Billy had a good physique but he definitely wasn't shredded.
Billy Gunn was a big guy with a smaller guys move set. He's got to be at least 6ft 5.
1:33:15.... Funny how ROAD DOGG was willong to get stretched by "BIG BROTHER BRAD"....LOL
I still have one of those Al Snow figures, somewhere.
Love hearing about the Astros winning knowing now they cheated hahaha. Also Bruce doing the Vince voice talking about pias had me literally laughing out loud. Funniest shit ive heard on him do hands down
Unpopular opinion, but I don't know what the hell it was about Rockabilly that always made me laugh and love Billy in that character. Just that he was doing all these dances like a dork and having a meanstreak then smashing a guitar over someone's head was always great. I liked it during it's brief run. The 2 themes songs for Rockabilly were hilarious too.
I liked "The One" gimmick.. his music was good and that finisher was good
Love this podcast but since when is a jeep a tank? DX was driving a jeep Bruce.
They all say that and that annoys me
I remember hating them so much and then somehow hating them even more when I started to realize how genuinely good they were as a tag team.
Shuli? .... like stern show shuli?
Dat intro 15/10. ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages. degeneration x proudly brings to you it's tag team champions of the WOOOOOOOOORLD the road dog Jesse James, bad ass Billy gun the new age outlaws. timeless man
at 2:14:30, Conrad says Chyna won a royal rumble. I think he meant a battle royale.
Nope it was a royal rumble, they introduced someone every 2 minutes.
Re-listening.... boy this astros celebration didn't age well 😅
what is that music at 1:12:00?
ECW top 5
1- the dudleys
2- Public Enemy
3- the eliminators
4- impact players
5- RVD and Sabu
I'd put The Gangstas in over Public Enemy but yeah I agree with the rest of your choices.
Pit Bulls?
Oh you didn't know???? Your ass better call SOMEBODYYYYYY
A lot of chat me ups this episode
Is there a "well, you know" t shirt?
The Outlaws, in fact pretty much all of DX -- I just never really got the appeal. Billy might be the most viable of all of them. Otherwise -- what's so great?
I thought the Mr. Ass thing was a good idea.
Feed me to Ming
Am I not the only one with a blown mind from the suggestion Billy Gunn is the same size as Hulk Hogan?!
About 15 inches 😝
Road Dogg is a vet?
Yeah some of his tattoos are a giveaway
1:36:57-He slips in a Jim Cornette “Goddam”.
WCW top five
1- Harlem Heat
2- the Road Warriors
3- The Steiner Brothers
4- The Outsiders
5- Luger and sting
Jamal Onley lmao wot
How bout the Freebirds, Midnight Express, Rock n Roll Express, Hollywood Blonds?!?!? I’d put ALL those teams over the Outsiders AND Harlem Heat!
Bruce said on the Demolition episode they are the no.1 tag team but on here doesnt even rank them in the top 5 how the hell does that work?!
Maybe he changed his mind, or simply just thought about it.
Bro wtf lol
Phenomenal. Not quite perfect, pretty close tho.
21:02 hahaha
1- The Dudley Boyz
2 -edge and Christian
3-hardys
4-new age outlaws
5-apa
@@therealsashagray The Dudley Boyz have won more tag team titles than any other tag team in wrestling history. So check your stats before you say that it is a shitlist
Oh you didn't Know
I thought Billy Gunn was a better worker than Road Dogg.
Weird how most fans think so but most of those in the business thought dogg was better. But I mostly agree.
3:40:50 3:43:42 LOL
Best teams of the 90's
1. New age outlaws
2.edge&christian/hardy boyz/dudley boys.
3.rock and sock connection
4.harlem heat
5. The outsiders hall & Nash!
Those were the best teams in the 90's Era hands down.
Terry Brown Outsiders#1 Dudleys are #2 New Age Outlaws #3 Harlem Heat #4 and Rock and Sock #5.
Joseph Selser you named the same teams I did just in a different order. But they are all still top 5.lol
Joseph Selser but the roadwarriors were the best team ever.
Terry Brown well, its a 90s list. lol. Road Warriors? No argument from me on that.
Joseph Selser yes it is,it's my comment and I clearly listed best teams of the 90's at the top. And you only listed 90's teams as well. So I don't see the point of the argument. Lol
hart foundation? outsiders man
Beans "the more you eat them the more you fart" Hart
Houston Asterisks World Series Champions*
You know Road dog was great when I was a younger person but his career probably could have lasted a little longer if he ever did any work in the gym I mean these guys are playing roles like actors you should somewhat look the part you don't need to be jacked like the Ultimate Warrior Road dog was flabby and looked lazy
Never knew road Dogg was such a real life badass.
A Doot Doot Doot
1:39:32-Actually it DOESNT makes sense! Once you tag out, in theory you are no longer a legal man; therefore, you cannot be pinned or you cannot be the one doing the pinning.
You clearly didn’t watch, it was someone else who tagged them in at the time to try and get them to fight each other. It created the outlaw rule that you can’t pin your own teammate.
New Age Outlaws were an example of how the Attitude Era could make anyone into stars. Two journeyman mid carders, and that's being generous, started swearing, crotch chopping and what ever Jerry Springer garbage they did. Boom, overnight they were stars! A terrible time.
1:08:52
I cant stand Conrad and his woke Twitter agenda that he needs to bring up every episode
And tag teams that don't make the list
1 Owen Hart and the British bulldog
2- the World's Greatest Tag Team
3- Owen Hart and Yokozuna
4- Kane and X-Pac
5- the quebecers and money Inc
Eddie didn't break his arm he dislocated his elbow in that match
I'm 18 minutes in and no show yet. Ads and bs. C'mon guys
Do an impression free show
You
Chat me up
Mega tag teams
1- The Brothers of Destruction
2- Rock and sock
3- Stone Cold Steve Austin and Triple H
4- Shawn Michaels and John Cena
5- Chris Jericho and Chris Benoit
Jamal Onley you had a good list but John and Shawn a mega tagteam? No hell no
Amazing tag teams in the late 1990's in The Attitude Era,
1# The LOD
2# The new age outlaws
3# The headbangers
4# The Godwins
5# APA/ acolytes
6# The Hardys
7# Edge and Christan the brood
8# The dudleys
9# Skull & Eightball
10# DX
Man, 6 outta your 10 are overrated.
Horrible list.
Just naming people...smdh
The Headbangers and amazing don't belong anywhere near each other. But yeah there were a bunch of incredible tag teams during that period. Too bad Vince doesn't give tag teams the push/chance he used because there's no reason why we couldn't have a bunch of great entertaining tag teams these days too.
Number one is the Brothers of Destruction
Road Dogg is the main reason why WWE Sucks now!
springer 90 he works on the smackdown brand not raw lol... Plus fun fact Vince has final say you do realize that.
Vince was rewriting everything.
Why does it not surprise me that McMahon is a Redskins fan... jeez... HAD respect for Vince.
Chad Pugh you lose respect for him cuz he likes the redskins? 😂 wtf
Chad Pugh you're an idiot. You dislike him because of his football team-pathetic.
Andrew Kennedy-Reagan most definitely. Don't like it? Your problem.
Chad Pugh incorrect. You being a crybaby bitch is not my problem. It's yours.
I’m a redskins fan too chad ... suck it !
screw the midnight express
keith kelly I feel like you're opinion matters less simply due to that southern flag in that pic.
WHAT?????????
No Bruce, the real reason you're kissing RoadDoggs ass is because of his position in WWE right now
Two of the absolute worst wrestlers of all time
@Wild Hearts I am serious. It's always been my opinion on them. The braided hair and the ghetto dance acting like another race. The smoking Gunn's were a joke and we're only pushed because they were the only team and Brian James was just a roadie. The weakest of of the Armstrong wrestlers. This team only shined because there were no other options. When Bret Hart left WWF it went to Hell.
@@jamesomensen1292
Bret leaving essentially SAVED wwe
Not a fan of these extended shows where Conrad reads from a long list of matches and Bruce comments on each one. Too structured. I'd rather have a about an hour or two show where they discuss key moments and matches and more or less shoot talk on the career.
Chad Pugh that's why you don't have a hit show lol. Let us know when it works out for you.
Stony420 well you know.
Chad Pugh what happen when would probably be more up you're alley man.
