40 minutes of pure wrestling education. Beautiful.

The amount of research, time and hard work this must have taken to make is absolutely mind blowing.

the no escape title sounds more ACTION PACKED than elimination chamber even though they are the same thing

Brock using the Shooting Star Press as a finisher is just satisfying

WWE 2k: can't upload Chris Benoit Also WWE 2k: can upload Osama Bin Laden, EDP445, Vladimir Putin, and a KKK member

If the Sasha banks Eddie story is true, that’s one of the saddest things I’ve ever heard. Could you imagine?

Brock Lesnar: Wins the NCAA Championship for Wrestling Kurt Angle: Wrestling Olympic Gold Medalist Taz: Just enjoyed the sport

Who the hell would watch a 40-min video about this? … Me. I would.

My man straight up started spitting out facts

Actually the smoking is legal in the UK if it's part of a performance.... you can go and see play that involves smoking etc. So was perfectly legal for him to do it the way he did.

Future kids: Grandpa, who’s Chris Benoit? Me: *He only exists in my memory*

The way you educated us on Kallisto’s mask symbology was mind blowing

This is the best 40 minutes of my life

Starting out hot with the Germany No Escape facts. The title No Escape is so funny because No Way Out had the same meaning and is just way better

Wow Alexa Blliss' mother only looks around 5 years older than her, she must've been young.

40 minutes of my life not wasted

Brock couldn’t perform the Shooting Star Press properly because it was way to far from the turnbuckle to his target ‼️

40 minutes I love it keep it up and keep these coming

You can see why Brock never hit that Shooting star press on Kurt Angle, you can see he hesitated for a split second and bent his knees twice when jumping off and therefore he didn’t push off with enough force to gain enough momentum to complete the rotation. I’m pretty sure the hesitation came from the fact that he was well aware of how fatigued he was

No escape should actually be the name of the paperview

12:40 LOL Bigshow! He's a Showrunner while fans still trying to figure out whether you're a heel or face

Kalisto vs Mystery at WrestleMania would be so Badass

Tony Ferguson is the type of guy that drives in the rain without his wipers on so that he could condition his eye focus

Shawn Michaels' return in 2007 was the first thing I saw about wrestling. I remember pressing buttons on my remote to find something to watch on a saturday night (I am french and in 2007, Raw was on saturday nights, in a 45 minutes cut and broadcasted 3 weeks after the live broadcast in the US), and I see this old man in the ring with that young champion, talking about a "Triple H guy" and asking him to come to the ring. Seconds of silence, the champion goes outside the ring to look for the guy, then a music hits, and I remember my first thoughts when I saw HBK coming on the scene. I was like "Yo, this mfkr is gonna beat the living shit out of the champ. I guess it is not that Triple H guy but something really bad is gonna happen". They fight, then the Sweet Chin Music hits Orton. It was beautiful, and I remember watching the rest of the show because I was like "I want to see more of that HBK dude. He is badass and his music is just so cool". No need to see I cried like the little bitch I am when he retired. He was God to me

I watched the entire vid, really shows how you manage to keep me wondering whats next lol

"Did you know the pov elimination chamber is not called elimination chamber in germany?" me, a German: *Y E S I K N O W* *confused laughter*

We need more/another of this type of educational content ! Thanks for all the facts in a single video.🤝🏼

Angle was also way too far for Lesnar to hit that press.

Ahh, 40 minutes of hearing the best wrestling reporter on KZfaq. 💪🏾🔥

There is a 2007 episode of Smackdown that uses a signature intro with Benoit it *after* his death. Dont remember what ep it was, or if it were Raw or Smackdown, may have been Raw actually, but out of nowhere it used that intro. My guess was that the initial broadcast may not have had an intro and they chucked it on for whatever reason and didnt notice Benoit

1:19 😂😂 what a legend

Every holder of the original Women's Championship after Moolah was born during her 28 year title reign.

Kurt was way too far across the ring for Lesnar to stick that landing. It's not really Brock's fault. Had Angle rolled over once towards the corner that Lesnar was going to jump from, while pretending to writhe in agony, Lesnar would have connected with the move.

I would also say another reason why the shooting star press didn't work for Lesnar is because Kurt Angle wasn't close enough for Lesnar to land safely on him.

Never knew about the background of Alexa Bliss since I had missed a few years of Raw due to moving. The cheerleading background explains a lot.

This should be a podcast lol

Of course Hogan wouldn't agree to put young Lesnar over, it didn't work for him, brother.

It was pretty much Petty of 2K to ban people just because they created Chris Benoit as a CAW

Best 40 minutes of wrestling facts ever

When Lesner tried the Shooting Star at Mania you can see Angle was also too far away from him to hit it successfully if Angle had of been closer to the side Lesnar was Lesnar could of hit the move successfully.

Wow this was super interesting and informative, personally I found the Alexa Bliss and Great Khali ones most fascinating

THIS IS ONE OF THE GREATEST WWE FACT VIDEOS!!!! I like these videos man; you and Andy and What Culture give me so much WWE History, I love it!

Never thouch anything so fast

Funny how Shawn would later face Vladimir Kozlov on an episode of RAW back in 2009 or so and it would've been pretty nice if his cousin warned him about Kozlov and even give some tips when facing him

Really appreciate this kind of education. 40 minutes and aint feel boring at all

I got to go to Corpus Christi, Texas for my first live event since my parents divorce. I was 14, excited as hell to see what happens in this big storyline they had going about Vince McMahon dieing in a limo explosion etc. It was June 25, 2007. Up until that point, Chris Benoit was tied for my favorite current wrestler with Undertaker. Watched the show, heard the news, went home upset. Honestly, I don't remember much of the show, just bits and pieces. Then I got home a couple days later, and heard what had actually happened. I was so confused. Like, how could someone do that. I deleted my background on MySpace, as it had been Chris Benoit themed with lightning crossing through a black background and him jumping from the top rope. I stopped watching for a few years after that, just recently getting back into it after my dad gave me his collection of memorabilia(he is a super fan). It's very different from the wrestling that I grew up with, but I'm learning a lot from these videos and I'm starting to enjoy it again so, thank you for making them.

Best 40 mins ever

Not the biggest Sasha Banks fan, but imagine trying to see your favorite wrestler in person only to find out he passed away

I clicked on this vid by accident and ended up watching the whole video. Beautiful.

It’s not illegal to smoke in public in the UK, just inside work venues. Rule of thumb: if it has more than 2 walls, and somebody works there, you can’t smoke. If it has 2 walls or no roof, or no one works there, you’re good.

You weren’t kidding when you said 40 minutes

40 minutes of pure, unadulterated voice cracks. Phenomenal.

Hulk Hogan and not wanting to put people over...what a great tag team

To the person reading this: Even though I don’t know you, I wish you the best of what life has to offer.

Man I love you when you mentioning little details about banned in Indonesia

I was at the Raw episode (2011, O2 arena, London) when R Truth stubbed a cigarette on John Morrison while the fans (Including me) were chanting ‘That’s a Regal’ 😀 I don’t know how they got that past Vince, as one of his pet hates is cigarettes…

This is a very good list. I consider myself an informed fan, and I didn't know a lot of these. Great video.

“they couldn’t use hell in a children’s toy” real missed opportunity to call it “heck in a cell” 😂

Why can't I find someone like Sasha found Kidd Mcarzie? That's a real beauty and the beast story right there. Made for each other!

Who guy who offered to help R-Truth quit smoking doesn’t seem to realize it’s scripted

The facts and stories from 13:49 to 16:28 are so good

Well researched, good narration, nice rare early photos - Excellent work! 🙂

Fun Fact: Most of the music WWF/E used for themes and promos is actually production music for movies and commercials.

Man wwe should have just stayed with Hasbro for the toy line, these wrestling action figures are way too big for the ring, its ridiculous! As a kid I loved having those action figures that actually fit in their rings.

These types of wrestling shows are great.

also it wasnt larinitis persay that made the decision, it was kurt angle asked/suggested to do it. and kurt to this day feels bad about it

I seriously clicked this video without reading the title I swear and when the video finished I was like how damn I watched 40 min video now am shock, ur contents are very addictive like specially the end of all ur videos when u are like click this if you want know blah blah am ur biggest fan man keep it up ❤😁

1:00 I was at that show, what makes it even funnier is that people started chanting "that's illegal" as he lit the cigarette.

Bruh why is this the most education I have gotten all year?

I mean, Eddie gurrero v undertaker would’ve been a *BANGER*

Till this day I still don't understand why people hated Reigns for that

Alexa's mom: no don't become a wrestler, is not safe nor guaranteed *alexa's mom after her daughter is signed* : omg I'm so proud, I knew you could, when is that paycheck tho?

R Truth smoking was not cut from the UK broadcast, I saw it live and on the repeat three days later. It was cut from that clip show they used to show called experience or something.

When I was 9 I had a Billy Gunn action figure and on the back of his tights instead of saying Mr Ass it said "Mr B.A." (referencing when he was originally called "Bad Ass" Billy Gunn). I was always annoyed by that.

40 Minutes of Chris Benoit Facts

Alexa is a great performer she could make any character work, tho her current Fiend inspired gimmick is not that well received, she actually nailed it...

Mr. Perfect was absolutely right. Acrobatics should be left for the Light, Cruiserweight and Women's Divisions, as they are much lighter and nimbler than the Heavy and Super Heavyweights.

I completely forgot about the Jinder and Khali storyline. That makes Khali’s return to WWE to help Jinder against Randy Orton make more sense.

You honestly think there's even a 1% chance Ric Flair went into business for himself kissing Becky? Becky's cliche 'i'm trying to pull away but not really trying to pull away" reaction wasn't enough proof? away eaction

One of the best wrestling videos I've seen. Great job.

Actually the tv station in Indonesia actually already move the show in the midnight even in 1 am morning, but there are so many parents still afraid about their kids to watch that show, actually when it's aired in Indonesia in that time WWE already got mature rating for 18+ but still there are so many kids watch that without parents permission or assist the kids to watch, but the parent blame the tv stations and the show 😂

Kanye West is one of my favorite artists 💀 can’t believe Sasha Banks was inspired by him

UsA? Yep were going to the UsA Network! Wow I can't wait to go to UsA 😂

Bliss' sparkles idea was actually based around her love for Disney.

Nailed it dude for Ur dedication on this video!

İn Germany actually no one calls it no escape here, we just stick with the original name

Not going to act like I didn’t want this

Wow I'm part of the 1% lol

Straight to the point! I put respect on it

This video just made me subscribe. Love this type of stuff.

Why would Germany ban the Elimination Chamber, the Germans did it

I remeber that fact of southern Alexa Who was doing that promo with? The girl on the phone Alexa told to apologize with everyone Great vídeo saludos desde México

Its funny to see my country (The Lativi one) mentioned, its all bcs negligent parents, kids, and a lot of people living in rural area barely understand english (even Bahasa, the main languages) or know any kayfabe/pro wrestling works. So it leads to multiple injuries and deaths. After the backlash, Lativi tried to move the show to dawn time, even at 03:00AM just to make kids to avoid watching it, eventually they let it expires and gone from local tv. And few years later Lativi also stop airing (bought out and turn into TVOne that more to news/political than international entertainments). The cable network still aired (MNC), but all of those is ppv compilations/random episodes that not following international/real WWE airings at the time. Now many still huge fans but watch on WWE official youtube and watch ppv in Disney Hotstar. But no official relation anymore. So Technically Indonesia watch Early Attitude era (My brothers said so, from Stone Cold rise to The Rock winning Royal Rumble becoming Scorpion king then the local TV lost license and stop airing), WCW when NWO vs Sting is the main story (not a lot known since it aired to lesser known tv station and WWF ruled the views) and near end of Ruthless Agression era (My era the Lativi one). So PG-Current era is never aired, fans just followed youtube, instagram, twitter, etc. I remember SD 1st airing is around after Eddie Guerrero passing, Batista return from injury, Undertaker vs Kurt Angle. RAW around Edge vs Cena, DX reunites, Kane & Big Show tag team champion. ECW invasion also airing, and ECW one night stand RVD vs Cena is so legendary. Sad to see how it goes, but when WWE aired. A lot of Undertaker, John Cena, Batista, Edge, MnM, Lita, Mcool, Matt Striker, Matt Hardy, DX, Psychosis, Paul London, Brian Kendrick, Shelton Benjamin, RVD, Sandman, Tommy Dreamer, CM Punk, etc. fans still present. Even theres some local Indonesian youtubers covering the current wrestling news today (Bloodlines, Bray Wyatt, LA Knight, etc.). So Indonesian wrestling fans still there today including me. They still leave legacy.

I remember as a kid Wwe had a channel called WWE 24/7 it played classic wwe matches and new ones all day long

Best wrestling video I’ve seen in forever

40 minutes of joy

Brock makes shooting star press look so easy wtf is his size and he did that move🙏🏻👑🔥

A Lesnar, Angle and Tazz faction would have been INSANE!

This was amazing. Thank you!

Maaan the Triple H not being allowed to look weak in the game is the most small PP energy thing I've ever heard, lol.
