Here's a question from me. How long is Goldberg's walk from the locker room to the main stage?

The Crippler Crossface us legit one of the best submission holds ever. Nearly paralyzed my cousin with it. Never did it again

I just thought Vince McMahon was a commentary guy...for like 20 years. I had no idea he was the freaking owner

I didn't know Johnny Sins works for WhatCulture

I remember being a kid in the 90s and going to local hardcore wrestling shows. There was one match where they kept trying to put a guy through a table and no matter what it would not break. It looked like the most painful thing I've ever seen.

It took me years to find out that John Cena isn’t a doctor.

Referee putting his finger in your hand and waiting for a squeeze to make sure you're ok.

*intro rolls* *Prays to God it's Simon*

Ric Flair's RED TRUNKS!!! Who knew?

What about the secret of who threw the pie at Kevin Owens?

I actually saw the OG Sheik do the fireball when I was a kid. It was the greatest thing I'd ever seen, until he threatened the crowd lol. Makes me glad I'm old 😳

Video ideas: Most convincing kayfabe injuries Famous Wrestlers who had better careers outside of wrestling Wrestlers who improved significantly in other promotions (such as starting in WWE/F, doing terribly, moves to WCW and clearly got better in ring)

The Undertaker is not an Undead mortician, that's stupid. He's clearly an Undead Wizard.

I call BS on the thigh slap. everyone knows that hitting the thigh at the right time and spot causes a quick spasm putting more jerk into the kick thus making it all the more dangerous a move. Duh, everyone knows that. Next you’re gonna tell me Undertaker didn’t actually come back from the dead.

They DON'T half saw through tables 80-90% of the time. They're pressed wood a 240 lb guy can break one of those like nothing. If the tables were cut then they wouldn't break all randomly Kare jagged. They'd break cleaner.

I went to smackdown in 2019 at the KFC YUM Center and only half the arena was filled. The other half was covered over.

The secret that took years to discover, The Rock & Dwayne Johnson are the same person

Had to pause the video to acknowledge that I too credit Tajiri with the thigh slap. Took me a while to realize what was happening, but I remember witnessing him kicking the crap out of Super Crazy in ECW and wondering how his kicks alone made this sort of noise and how Crazy hadn't died. ...continue

Byron Saxton is CGI & only exists in the digital realm... no real human being could be that incredibly bland & lifeless.

You should of included using the steel chair seat ways up other than backwards during a chair shot

Seeing as it’s Friday night take a shot every time Simon says dubya c dubya😂

I just learned, the undertaker isn't actually dead. I'm in complete shock.

What about why Natalia’s injury on her leg switched legs a couple months ago

The Goldberg DDP match at Halloween Havok 98 was incredible!

I was in middle school in the late 90s and was blown away to learn wrestler's real names. Didn't know about any of this even with the internet. Simpler times.

What about when a wrestler has another one in a hold, say an arm bar, and the guy in the arm bar taps the guy giving it to him a certain number of times to indicate keep the hold on because it's going over well with the crowd or it's time to do something else? It took me a while to figure it out but you can see it a lot in Ric Flair matches.

Why isn't stunt granny ever on these lists?

Jake Roberts thought wrestling was real until he was 26 years old.

Actually, if I'm not wrong in the Bret Hart Table incident, he actually broke Carlos Cabrera's (still spanish announcer) knee when Bret fall over the table. And we always says: "There isn't a good PPV if they don't broke the spanish announcer table."

Another Simon video. I swear he does top 10 videos like 95%. He needs more money from WC

I always thought the wreatlers kept thier eye on the ref sothe can kick out a splitbsecond before the 3. Not to tell the ref when the finish is. I assumed the refs would be told the finish ahead od time or else how do they jump to the end when there are time restraints?

When you said “barbaric” and cut to the picture of the barbarian I burst out laughing 😂😂😂

If you watch when Andre first tells Hogan he wants a title match on Pipers Pit you can see “Vics” body rub on his finger so he could dab his eyes to make him cry.

I! AM! THE TABLE!!

The DY-MA-NITE Kid...I heard that, Simon. 😭😭

A lot of people mistake Strong Style with Shoot/Stiff wrestling, Strong style actually is bringing real martial arts elements in pro wrestling such as using ju jitsu submissions or karate/twd kicks etc.

Holy crap, that Abdullah head scarring

Simon is the reason I still watch and am subbed to WCW

Elbowing/forearming the cheek/side of the head still gives brain damage though. It's basically the same as combat sports athletes tucking their chin to absorb a shot.

Videos like this are great!

; I’ve only ever watched the ref to time a kickout as best I could 🤷🏻‍♂️ might start using that lil trick

The only exception to the attendance rule was Super Show-Down - the MCG would not allow the attendance figure to be inflated. Why? Because that would undermine trust in the other attendance figures used for AFL, Cricket, and other major events.

I love when SIMON does wrestling videos!!! I love the way you say Dub-ya-see-dubya!! Why don't you wrestle?

To be honest I love seeing Ric Flair and Triple H bleed they were awesome

No one remembers that the blader (not a real word I guess) takes aspirin before the match to make the blood thinner. Easier to flow.

thanks for explaining the eyes thing, I always noticed if their eyes were open they'd kick out

I used to think the blood was fake because of how thick it looked

Wow I never thought about the eye to referee one

I believe "woman's" wcw friend:Kevin Sullivan had something to do with the Benoit Family tragedy. BullyBilly

When the ref is counting the pin, when the crowd shot didn't blur, it means it's not yet the finish. If it goes blurred, it's already the finish. 😅😅

I didn’t know Bret stomped when punching someone.... that dudes really amazing 😷😷

I don't want to wait a lot of years to find out who threw the pie at Kevin Owens.

The Dymanite Kid 😂

43 seconds intro, 10:06 final for midroll ads. Well done lads.

WWE covers a lot of things with camera angles and cutting at the right moment

I just relived this is Simon from that heavy metal reaction page

I was at SS 1995. 6 years old it was my first show. Til this day I remember Bret Hart flying through that table

Simon, The Only Reason To Watch What Culture!

Put on Royal Rumble 1991 and towards the end of tye Rockers vs Orient Express match I'm pretty sure I heard someone saying Paul. No doubt a cue for Paul Diamond who was Kato. Then there's a Hogan/George The Animal Steele match from 1984 where halfway through you can hear George talking to Hogan "You wanna do the turnbuckles yet?" or something like that.

Interesting that Paul Bearer (Bill Moody) is a fellow mortician. I met him in a professional capacity. He was a fine practitioner.

Nice video

I always wonder if the referee X sign had a specific way to designate it's a work or not like which arm is in front or what direction the fists are turned.

I knew a lot of this stuff before i watched this video.

Hacksaw Jim Dugan has the best stomps for his punches. That’s when I questioned the “realness” of wraslin’. Still fun to watch...not as much nowadays

The touching or grabbing of an arm or leg when an opponent is put through a table or other object

2:52 just look up botchmania's manny MANNY "i am the table" segments - its mentall how risky that is even inspite of all that gimmicked ways of making it easier

John screama (shouting all spot) 🤣🤣

Jerico did a This is Jerico with Dave Meltzer where they talked about Benoit and you can look for it online and it was done sometime in the middle of 2018.

HBK was a helluva blader.

Here's a trivial secret, Sabu and Sting were on the first few WCW Monday Nitro's at different points but never faced each other..

i love it how simon says WCW

I recently thought that Simon Whistler from Top Tenz hadn't buffed up fast and joined WhatCulture

No joke, I noticed the eye thing in one of the games. I don't remember which one it was but it's one of the older ones before 2K took over. I just noticed that whenever a wrestler kicked out, they had their eyes open and if they had their eyes closed they most likely didn't kick out.

As a Southern American I love the way u say WCW😂😂

The table thing makes me laugh. Not so much WWE but when i go to local wrestling promos around england. some of them make the tables to weak that they legit break when they're just trying to set them up. Botchamania would have a field day if someone recorded that.

wwe has actors in the crowd

Regarding #4, I was just watching a Lince Dorado match and his mask covers his eyes. So how would he do that one? Or other similarly masked wrestlers.

the main issue i have with the hard camera is that everything is done towards that direction. promos, finishers. they constantly have there backs to the audience. what would piss me off. also another secret that my friend and i found was what we called the tap. when one wrestler is about to give a power bomb to another he'll tap his side to prepare for a counter. it can be very noticeable sometimes.

I seem to remember a time when any big movie would inspire the creation of an extremely corny wrestler gimmick. Can you please do a video on the worst movie inspired gimmicks?

ive noticed the eye contact for a long time but never knew it was a signal to the ref, i just thought it was the wrestler trying to watch the count and time the kick out

Did not know about the thigh slapping.... thought there were mics nearby which did some filtering and made the slaps sound relayed on speakers through the arena. Duh!

Can you guys do a video stringing the parallels of Kliq > NWO > Bullet Club and how “Too Sweet” continues to be carried on. Obviously, I know that Hall and Nash carried “too sweet” on from the Kliq to the NWO but how did it get from the NWO to Finn Bálor and the Bullet Club???

Dubbya Cee Dubbya!

The tables aren't gimmick'd, they're just cheap particleboard. They use much thinner ones that they used to, which, while saving them more money, they also don't absorb the impact quite as well. They're just easier to break for modern, smaller wrestlers/performers on both the male and female sides.

KANE and his under hit is one of best slaps!

You’re way too good for this channel

During my training, my coach forbid us from slapping any body part for sound. I just stiff my cohorts now.

Comment 2 lol Cena is so famous for his shot calling, just typing "John" into the search bar on KZfaq gets you "John Cena Spot Calling" XD

Never knew about closing the eyes for the ref

Fireballs are awesome..... and tables 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♂️

A lot of people speak very highly of benoit I'm surprised to hear such strong allegations of bullying, especially in New Japan

After watching this video.I have a question how does the claymore kick make more noise?

*Question...* How do they do those spots where they go through the announce table with the monitors still on it? It looks dangerous and expensive.

i hate hate HATE the "thigh slap!" EVERYONE does it now, and it's so friggin obvious,it takes away any sliver of hope that it could even be attempting to show the fans that it could be "real"... i paused it to make this comment, and ironically enough, it's on the pic of Taijiri, who i was going to mention was really the master of that, and you barely noticed he did it initially...but nowadays, you see everyone doing it so blatantly, especially the women, for almost any damn strike, it's pathetic! If i was in charge, besides instantly banning fully scripted promos, the thigh slap would be the next one i instantly ban, or at least tell people to either practice it before they do it live, so that you dont notice it, or to use it very sporadically...

Half of these I began theorizing right away tho

What's it about a wrestler going through a table that excites us.... We want tables hahaha

Never heard of the looking at the ref during the pin bit, interesting if true. But being you believe tables are gimmicked I have my doubts..

Simon u look buff enough to be on wwe

Crazy you got Johnny Sins to do this video 0:27

This is awesome clap clap clap
