This event was definitely what forced the WWF to go into the Attitude Era after this. Vince Russo saw the ECW guys on this show and went "These guys are are so cool and 90's bro. I'm gonna copy this shit bro. I love the 90's bro. Then I'll go to WCW and ruin it bro".
To be fair, WcW was already shitting the proverbial bed before Russo jumped ship. Him taking over as head writer just added buckets of concrete to help sink it.
Big homies. I have been suffering from covid the last few weeks, and have been binge listening to the deadlock podcast. you guys are giving me joy in my otherwise crappy day. Just wanted to say thank you.
I recall that Shamrock was gonna work for NJPW and become there World champion during that point in 97 but once he signed his deal with the WWF those plans that NJPW had for him went in smoke but man imagine Shamrock in NJPW around that time would of been crazy cool.
With Jawnny being such an OG ECW guy and being from Philly, I think he needs to convince James to look into hiring Joel Gertner to do color work. Aleast introducing the DPW Pay Per Views with limericks. Joel was one of the most loyal and last remaining original ECW guys before the company folded. One of the greatest on the mic in the history of the business. He gets the heat.
"Mimicking the clothing line of the NWO." It quite clearly means the BWO copied the NWO's T-Shirts. I really don't know how all three of these guys were confused by that, it wasn't rocket science lmfao
Won't lie. I used to work with a small indie fed in Central Pennsylvania around 2013 and we had booked honky tonk man for a show. I was working small floor security and walked up to him to see if he needed anything like water or anything like that. He was drunk as a skunk and told me to f*** off.
Vince didn't even have his WWF Wrestlers engage with them. They were stuck backstage doing Interviews watching this.😂 Won't engage until 2001. Then 2005. Or was it 06?🤔
the nWo is alos just a t-shirt company?? So, you're either a t-shirt company or a minor league wrestling company working the bingo halls or work in Japan or Mexico according to WWE if you wrestle somewhere other than the WWE
....... And then Tommy dreamer was gonna KILL PAUL HEYMAN AT WRESTLEMANIA
Alternate Title: "That Time DEADLOCK Slowly Went Insane Over An Hour"
I've been listening to their stuff for the first time. Isn't that every episode?
21:11 - That point onwards when they were talking about Sunny taking somas before cutting a promo made me laugh so much lol.
At this point, I just want a full Tony version of "No chance in hell" WITH ALL DUE RESPECT
Let’s take No Chance in Hell out of the equation. BOOM ITS A NON-FACTOR,

The one time I look forward to every week the deadlock retro reviews. Thank you boys for the laughs!
@@thrawnsbane God, I don’t understand the internet anymore.
You’re actually correct! Honky Tonk man and Jerry Lawler are actually related! They’re cousins and Jerry was instrumental into bringing him to WWE
Anthony: "GET OUT OF OUR COMPANY!!!"
Yet another of Jerry Lawler's crimes
We’re all up against a machine too strong........ PUPPETS!!!

Can't believe Shawn's dead RIP 1997-1997

shoutout to hog and pig showing up on survivor series
That's Mark Canterbury
The show becomes Raw is War two weeks after this and it is drastically different.
Best segment on ALL of youtube. I love this.
As a kid who grew up in Brooklyn and also watched this 10000 times back the I can promise that is a woman calling sunny a “fuckin’ bitch!”😂
This Raw legit took place one day before my first birthday. I also keep forgetting how good Johnny's Hogan impression is.
This has gotta be one of the best episodes yet
damn that's crazy Pulse and Tony had Kazuchika Okada on the show! AHHH DAS HOT
I like how ravens entrance music was the offspring come out and play
top 3 promotions I want to wrestle:
3.WWE
2.AEW
1.Deadlock pro wrestling
DPW needs to bring Mideon in as Dennis I. Knight and give him a kayfabe brother named Charles O. Knight.
ITS THE NEW JOHNSONS! BY GAWD LOOK AT EM
Hog And Pig DPW Tag Team Champions
during the LOD match they were chanting "THIS SHOW SUCKS" not Bischoff Sucks 😭😂😂
Jesus I didn't realize the Godwins were still a thing in 97. I thought they must have been done after the New Gen
Apparently many of WWF/E's talent was overseas on tour.
The next episode was in Berlin and most of the top talent was doing a tournament there for the inaugural European Championship.
If I was ever going to take a Total Elimination, I’d do the Home alone scream before impact
It was heyman saying this show sucks ecw rules watch my pay ppv
Watch my pay pay per view?
By Jawnnys picture, I wonder what is the name of his Limp Bizkit tribute band?
Cam you guys do the episode where Heyman disemboweled vince on national television??
Yeah, you couldn't tell anyone in early 1997 that WWF could beat WCW and that they could outlast ECW, but we all know how things played out.
Snow Cone Steve Austin
How come New Jack never teamed up with the New Blackjacks?
New Jack and Bradshaw on the same team? Somebody would've died.
This podcast will never not be funny. 😂😂😂
Didn’t realize this Raw took place four days before I was born
Tony reciting No Chance gave me a fucking heart attack bro
25:07 Steve Austin became Stone Cold right around or after King of the Ring 96 Jawnny... Get your shit together
This show always reminds me how much lyrics in wrestling themes fucking suck
Jim Johnston words are crazy. “Now tie a string around your finger boy”
you guys are awesome man
I thought they did this so they could have first go at signing the talent as well as sending them some.
UP AGAINST A MACHINE TO STRONG
PRIZZE POLIE SPITTA BUYA SOLZA...UPPETS!
"Mimicking the clothing line of the NWO."
It quite clearly means the BWO copied the NWO's T-Shirts. I really don't know how all three of these guys were confused by that, it wasn't rocket science lmfao
I mean, going up a machine too strong is weird...

This segment went off the rails REAL quick
Crowd was chanting Nitro sucks then Hogan sucks then Bischoff sucks
Shamrock was a wrestler before he got into MMA just fyi

Vince didn't even have his WWF

Bradshaw pounding on his hog
La FemNakita Koloff
