@@danieldrayet2364 But to be fair Bruce and Vince have a completely different relationship. If you worked with your best friend for 30 years you would be hesitant to dog him in public. Bruce has his moments of honesty.
This Royal rumble match is my favorite of all time, so much variety and story telling going on throughout, watched it live, so amazing! This, with no way out and Wm17 was a gold standard of WWF
I love coincidence, I just watched this Rumble with my kids two nights ago to get them ready for the 2021 Rumble, great PPV and really fun Rumble match to watch.
Fun fact the guy that made that iconic 2001 Royal Rumble poster is a graphic designer that currently teaches at Kean University in NJ. He said working with WWE was a pain in the ass, to no one's surprise
It's insane that HHH in late 2000/early 2001 during his quarter hour segments was pulling in the highest viewership out of anybody. That man was hot and over as fuck as a heel, kinda wish we had one today.
@@theredcomet1994 2002 as well, yeah. Even though he wasn't quite as overly muscly in 2000, he looked leaner and more athletically impressive, which I think was his best look purely as a wrestler. 2000 HHH was straight money.
@@theredcomet1994 2002 Triple H was a far inferior performer, clearly due to the massive muscle gain. His matches often seemed slow and clunky, even for a Triple H match. I don’t think he ever again reached the high standard he set in 2000 and early 2001.
Start the podcast. Drag the slider to the final 10 seconds or so. Let it play to the end. Then hit replay. No ads. I have no advice on the popping and clicking throughout, other than to check Jim Cornette's podcast instead.
To skip the ads: at the beginning of the video slide the track marker all the way to the end and the video will reload with no ads. I can understand a few ads but one every 3 minutes or so is ridiculous.
Imo the greatest Rumble ppv ever. 92 might have a better Rumble match but top to bottom this is the best ppv. Kane was a beeeast in this match with his "Diesel" spot.
I loved the 1995 rumble as well. Michaels hanging on by one foot and pulling himself back up was amazing. Especially with him and Davey boy being the first two and the last two to survive.
Not to take anything away from that Rumble, but it was very predictable just like 93….everyone knew Yoko would win. In 95….even coming in at #1…..everyone knew HBK would win. Also….it’s the shortest Rumble match in history shortly over 40 mins…….compared to all the other Rumbles
I had a neighbor who would tape the ppv’s for me. This PPV is one of my favorites from top to bottom. The storylines were clear, solid, and delivered in the matches advertised. This PPV featured the most memorable Benoit vs Jericho match ever. Big Show’s return made me pop so huge. I’d say that this Royal Rumble match is probably one of the top 3 or 5 greatest of all time.
OMG at 1:46:40 when JR says "Shit no. Fuck, you kidding me?" he sounded just like my Uncle Larry, who despite being born in Tulare, CA, talks with that all-recognizable Oklahoma drawl, as my grandpa (not Larry's father, but his dad, as he the the man who raised him. Larry is my dad's maternal half-brother) was born in Hobart, OK. Larry's biological father was also born in OK, so the accent is natural. 💯 JR made me bust a gut. Good shit LMAO
As disappointing as it was to many fans for Kane to not actually win that Rumble after being so impressively dominant, it made sense in a narrative way in that it's like, "what the hell will it take to eliminate Kane this night?" Austin finally does it, with 3 chairs to the head as an answer to that question; thus, the mountain is toppled, yadda yadda.
Start the podcast. Drag the slider to the last 10 seconds or so. Let it play to the end. Hit replay. No ads. Can't advise on the popping and clicking on the audio, other than to check out Jim Cornette's podcast instead.
Anyone else remember the guy in the white shirt and black tie (kinda looked like an RTC Steven Richards) who did random stuff during the show and held up a sign that said "my crap is bigger than Taz"?
Vince, Bruce, and JR have a bitterness about how Joanie left. Quite frankly, I believe Joanie got railroaded because A she was a woman in a man's world and B her ex boyfriend is now the boss's daughter's boyfriend.
I think he holds a lot of anger and resentment toward her because of how many times he, along with many others, were there for her to try to help her. But she couldn’t get out of the heartbreak. He comes across as bitter but I think he’s really mad at himself a little bit.
The problem with austin was that his career was cut short because of owen hart. He was never really the same after summerslam 97. He was limited to being a brawler rather than a ring technician
I remember this PPV for the atrocious angle with Chyna, and her bad acting with the neck injury. On the other side, there was the Ladder match which was fantastic.
I was so pissed as a kid the Rock didn’t win the rumble I never watched this match again until a couple days ago. I forgot how great it was. Maybe the best of all time.
For some reason, JR's podcast always has a popping sound in the background of his shows.. like feedback from the microphone or something. Wish it would be fixed. I don't notice it in any of Conrad's other podcasts..
For the record, and this would be the pre curser to my favorite Wrestling era... I never wanted to pay to see Triple H get beat up or watch a Triple H match tbf
In the early 2000s the work Jericho Benoit and Angel put out was of the charts those three had amazing chemistry and could have been used together wven more in bigger roles but hard with Austin and Rock with Taker still there
Angle was a big deal right from the off. He won all three singles titles and King of the Ring in 2000, they couldnt have pushed him much harder. Benoit had two title shots on PPV which is great for a number 3 heel, and Jericho was in a tough spot with Rock permanently on top and even tougher when Austin came back. Not sure they could have done much better booking than what they did.
At one point in Jericho/Benoit, the ladder falls sideways, closed, and Benoit is clearly "feeding" for the damn thing to land on his head in that position. That it missed was considered a botch...

It would be nice to go 1 podcast without hearing Meltzer brought up in every single podcast, multiple times throughout the podcast. All we hear is, "Meltzer wrote.... Meltzer said..... Meltzer thought.... Meltzer gave....." Someone that was never in the business and is only known because he bribes people for information by putting them over in his newsletter.... He's the main focus of every single podcast. You aren't reviewing the RR 01. Your reviewing what Meltzer thought in 01. That's pretty much how it is in every single podcast..... We have an opportunity to listen to people that were actually there and done stuff in the business, but Meltzer gets brought up non stop.
Thanks for the update. You've served your country well by attempting to troll in TH-cam on an almost 2 year old post.... Without your service, no one would've ever one I was "crying" and being a "baby" over the fact this 500lb man done nothing but talk about Meltzer on his podcasts. You're a true hero.
I saw a shoot with Ivory where she was LIVID about this match. She said that basically Chyna Ultimate Warrior'd her and refused to give her anything here or at Wrestlemania. I guess by this point that Joanie was in a state over the Stephanie/HHH relationship but Ivory deserved better.
@@AW-kr9fl A lot of people who knew her said she was basically a nice person but she was deeply messed up and went through massive mood swings. Squashing Ivory was basically a power trip from her, sulking because she wasn't allowed to wrestle the guys any more. Nobody was allowed to come anywhere near giving her competition apart from her buddy Lita, and even that wasn't a particularly difficult win for her IIRC. Imagine if Chyna had stuck around, we'd never have seen Trish rise to prominence like she did. Probably no Mickie James or Jazz or Molly or Victoria either
Sadly HHH didn’t understand that he needed to lose in order to put the other guy over. He had booked himself into the top slot but this is further than he should’ve ever been. To make it worse he beat the likes of sting for example, the worst business decision that could’ve been made. Firstly it killed a huge drawing power in sting, secondly in winning nobody came out better off, maybe HHH, but not the company, not sting, nobody else gained anything. It’s why matches like bulldog vs Brett, For example will be remembered so fondly, not because of who won but because of the story told, the winner was a feel good moment. Hhh beating sting was like “oh ok, glad I didn’t pay to see it now”
You talk about simulating realism, so wouldn't the most logical thing be for Taker and Kane to keep eliminating everyone till they're the last two left?
I love Conrad and Jim Ross's work but this 37 year old born and raised 🙌 in Chicago Illinois must keep it real. Its Royal Rumble number one and WrestleMania number two and its simply because a lot of those WrestleManias aren't the 3 hour extravaganzas theyre promoted as and the WrestleMania matches arent exactly what the fans want nor something the fans bargained for
I love the podcast, however there is one thing I would change. Before anybody starts crying, this is just my opinion and I'm not forcing anybody else to agree, I'm just commenting mine. I click on these podcasts to hear about certain WWE PPV's from the past. Yes, it's also great hearing how Jim is currently doing, however what I don't like is the constant AEW references during the talky bit before we get to the PPV. Everything usually seems to end up being a "and that's why I like what we're doing at AEW on TNT on Wednesday nights". It just gets so boring to hear and I'm not clicking these podcasts for a AEW commercial on every subject. Again, that's just my opinion. You're still allowed your own.
Mental illness is a serious issue. People, I’m one of them, choose to remember the positive side of Chris before things got bad. His son also chooses to do the same thing.
@@StrikeTeam0316 the difference between you and JR is that one minute he (and most podcasters) will act like everyone should hate 1 wrestler because he's racist or something, but then the next minute he's sticking up for another wrestler who did the same thing, or even worse. So what he's indicating is that racism is bad, unless he really likes your in ring work. Then it's okay to be racist or even a murderer. If Goldberg and Benoit switched places, suddenly murder would be bad again.
Nobody really knows what happened to Chris Benoit his family nobody knows who did it they might as well have had Barney Fife doing that investigation or Andy Griffith actually Andy probably would have did a better job
I love ya jim but holy god so many ads. first ad in 4 mins over and over in a hour plus video really takes me out.. plus I see like 15 more within like 40 minuets.... you don't need so many ads just nitpicking here but seems unnecessary

Royal Rumble 2000 and 2001 were very good. Good old days.
2002 wasn't bad either. Except for the son in law winning.
@@Rschr101 Love him or Hate him, but Triple H definitely was the right man to win that rumble even if it was predictable.
Except the end of ECW for me
I like how JR tries to paint Vince in a fair light. Critical when needed and defends him when negative assumptions are made.
Exactly, he doesn't kiss his ass like bruce does
@@danieldrayet2364 But to be fair Bruce and Vince have a completely different relationship. If you worked with your best friend for 30 years you would be hesitant to dog him in public. Bruce has his moments of honesty.
