00:00Dzień dobry!
00:08We all know that anything can happen in the wild and unpredictable world of WWE.
00:13And on occasion, action can spill outside the ring into the backstage area.
00:17This matchup spilling all over the arena.
00:20From pull-apart brawls.
00:22One of the most chaotic scenes we've seen in Raw history.
00:25Superlatives cannot describe this, I've never seen anything like this.
00:28To brutal attacks.
00:30Lita and Trish, they're beating the hell out of each other!
00:33Superstars have engaged in all kinds of ruthless and thrilling confrontations,
00:37far from the confines of the squared circle.
00:40Where anything, and I mean anything, can happen.
00:45Today, we take a look back at the most chaotic backstage moments in WWE history.
00:49This is WWE's Greatest Moments.
00:59He's just a man!
01:01Oh my God, what the hell are you doing?
01:05Absolutely unbelievable!
01:07Welcome, the maniac is here.
01:15Welcome everyone to WWE's Greatest Moments.
01:18I'm Michael Cole.
01:19And on this edition, we're looking at the craziest and most chaotic backstage moments in WWE history.
01:24They've taken this fighter out of the arena.
01:26What the hell is going on?
01:29While superstar conflicts are often times settled inside the ring,
01:32certain rivalries can morph into something more volatile.
01:35In these instances, the backstage area quickly becomes the setting for some of WWE's most iconic altercations.
01:42In February 2002, The Rock made an enemy out of the American badass, The Undertaker.
01:48What happened to The Rock will continue to happen every time he disrespects me.
01:52The Great One felt the wrath of the dead man for several weeks.
01:56But one particular backstage moment on SmackDown proved why messing with Big Evil was a grave mistake.
02:05The Rock, revenge and retribution on The Undertaker.
02:09So The Undertaker, this character who has been in such mental control of every situation throughout his career,
02:18is now in this situation where he's beside himself because this guy left him laying and vulnerable.
02:25We damn sure ain't gonna be even, cause I'm foul!
02:28Hey! The Undertaker!
02:30He was running his jabroni mouth and he needed it, he deserved it.
02:34Oh my God, no!
02:36No, no!
02:37A tube stone!
02:38A tube stone!
02:39Into the roof of the limousine!
02:41I'm sitting here and just kinda hoping that we don't go through the roof of the car with The Rock.
02:46It was an exciting time, there was all these things happening and we raised the bar.
02:50What a sick, sick human being!
02:53I thought it was amazing, really, really fun segment in SmackDown and definitely a memorable one.
03:02New World Order!
03:04I'll get you too!
03:05The New World Order were quite literally a pack of wolves.
03:09The NWO!
03:11Ready or not, here we come!
03:13Their attacks on the roster of World Championship Wrestling became some of the most vicious moments in professional wrestling history.
03:20But perhaps none more chaotic than on an episode of Monday Nitro from Disney's MGM Studios.
03:29Whoa, look at this rampant!
03:31Jimmy Hart!
03:32Jimmy Hart!
03:32What, what, what, what?
03:33Please take the camera to the back!
03:35We need help!
03:36The outsiders in the back!
03:37Come on!
03:39We need somebody in the back, please!
03:41What is he talking about?
03:42Need somebody?
03:42He's trying to get a camera man.
03:44I wanted Nitro to feel gritty.
03:46I wanted it to feel alive.
03:48What's he doing?
03:49He's going berserk!
03:50Making the show feel believable was paramount to me.
03:54We came up with the idea to come into it like cops, where the camera guys ran.
04:00Craig Leathers can hear us.
04:01Craig, are you going to send a cameraman back there or not?
04:04Okay.
04:05So when they came around the corner, Arne was bent over and Scott was dropping the bat.
04:11Wait a minute, we go to the back!
04:12There they are!
04:13They got baseball bats!
04:15And then Rey came, jumped, I caught him.
04:18There's the Cruiserweight Champion Rey Mysterio!
04:20Oh no!
04:21Juan darted Rey into the trailer.
04:24Head first!
04:25Into the trailer in the back!
04:26Threw him like he was a dart!
04:28And then we took off.
04:30It was hell like backstage at the time because cameras, you could see them running back and forth.
04:36It was very chaotic.
04:37There's Mysterio.
04:38There's the American Males.
04:40Oh my God.
04:44All of a sudden we hear sirens.
04:46What the hell?
04:48Cops are showing up.
04:50Fire trucks are showing up.
04:52A couple ambulances showed up.
04:54It's like what?
04:54And evidently, some of the people in the local area saw what was going on live and decided they needed
05:01to call 911.
05:02That was one of the most memorable moments that we had.
05:09Heading into the summer of 2023, the American nightmare Cody Rhodes is embroiled in a vicious rivalry with the Beast
05:15incarnate Brock Lesnar.
05:18Oh!
05:19Brock looking for a kimono lock!
05:22Cody popped the hips!
05:25Cody got him! Cody got him!
05:27I do not believe what just happened!
05:31After Rhodes defeated Lesnar at Backlash, the Beast was dead set on revenge.
05:35Going to great lengths to end Cody's career.
05:41The American nightmare Cody Rhodes arriving to Monday Night Raw!
05:47I was so excited.
05:50And then, I'm not sure what happened.
05:54Oh!
05:56Uh-oh!
05:59Running into the absolute beast was scary.
06:05He's a monster.
06:08Lesnar means business.
06:11Possessing the size and power that Brock does.
06:15Oh!
06:15Oh!
06:16I don't think a small army would have stopped him that night.
06:19Go!
06:20My God!
06:21I can't believe what we're seeing!
06:24He's a threat to me.
06:25So I had to take him out.
06:28Go!
06:29Go!
06:31Go!
06:31Go!
06:32Go!
06:33Go!
06:34Go!
06:35Go!
06:46Go!
06:49Go!
06:51Go!
06:52Go!
06:53Go!
06:54Go!
06:54Go!
06:57Go!
06:58Go!
06:58Go!
06:59Go!
06:59Go!
07:00Go!
07:02Go!
07:03I wrote a book called Tietum Brown.
07:07It is a cheap plug. Thank you very much.
07:10His tendency to bring the fight
07:12outside of the square circle came back to haunt him.
07:14Foley would soon become the victim of Randy Orton.
07:20To Vince, good luck.
07:23I had a book out.
07:24I was showing my book to Mr. McMahon.
07:27Next time I see him...
07:29Nice match, Nate. Randy, you really proved yourself up there.
07:31What did you say to me? What did you say to me?
07:35Randy, he and Ric Flair had lost a tag team match
07:38and turned into a three-way brawl.
07:42Randy Orton doing the damage on Mick Foley.
07:45The public is so fascinated with Randy Orton
07:47because he has a attitude.
07:53Mick Foley by Foley's worth at Randy Orton
07:56with another cheap shot.
07:58Busting a bottle right in the head or the face of Foley.
08:00It opens up a big wound in my head that you never see
08:04because I had long hair and it was dark.
08:06Absolutely sickening and uncalled for.
08:10Son of a...
08:15I kick him right in the head
08:17and he goes spilling down a flight of stairs.
08:21And I think everyone can tell,
08:22oh, that's gonna hurt.
08:24And it did.
08:25It hurt for like six weeks.
08:27I could tell there was a shift where the fans started
08:31taking me more seriously after that.
08:34Randy Orton's gotta be a scene of himself.
08:40In the summer of 2024,
08:42two of Monday Night Raw's largest and most physically imposing competitors
08:45were battling for supremacy as the biggest and baddest superstars in all of WWE.
08:50A tsunami meets a tidal wave!
08:55Bronson Reed had taken out several superstars
08:58in route to becoming the most feared man on Monday nights.
09:01The story will be about Braun Strowman,
09:04the victim to WWE's true monster, me.
09:11Braun Strowman looked to end Reed's reign of terror
09:14by taking him out himself.
09:16The battle of the Behemoth!
09:18But when two unstoppable forces meet,
09:21rules are quickly thrown out the window
09:23and destruction is sure to follow.
09:29Oh!
09:31Two just giant guys fighting all over the place.
09:35Backstage is scary enough as it is,
09:36but once they start going near cars,
09:38we don't know what's gonna happen.
09:40And now the fight spills out of the parking lot!
09:43Two bigger-than-life humans.
09:46This hellacious fight, it does not get any bigger.
09:51Good God!
09:52I hope that's not your car, Graves.
09:54These guys are walking houses.
09:57I could live in one of those guys.
09:59It'd be nice.
10:01Oh, my God!
10:02Bronson, what the hell are you thinking about here?
10:05Somebody say a prayer!
10:07A tsunami!
10:08Out of the roof of the car!
10:11And it was something that was, like, groundbreaking,
10:13never done before.
10:15They may flatten all of New England.
10:19He just climbed up there
10:20and jumped off a 12-foot ledge onto a car.
10:23It was terrifying.
10:25The damn craziest thing I've ever seen.
10:28Somebody get Strowman to the damn hospital!
10:31Maybe it would stand out in people's minds and be remembered forever.
10:34How is that for an exclamation point?
10:37Talk to me.
10:38Hey, Jeff, let's clean!
10:40In 2002, WWE was entering a new era.
10:44Several WCW stars made their way over to WWE, including the unpredictable New World Order.
10:50There's only one thing that I've gotta say to you, WWF fans.
10:54You can kiss my ass!
10:56Scott Hall, Kevin Ash, and Hollywood Hulk Hogan made a massive impression upon their arrival to WWE,
11:02targeting some of the biggest stars in the company, most notably, the people's champ, The Rock.
11:08It looks like wrestling's past, about to meet wrestling's future.
11:12And in the February 18, 2002 episode of Raw, the NWO finally got the upper hand on the Great One.
11:18No! Hogan just struck The Rock in the back of the head with that damn hammer!
11:23But while fans thought that was the end, the NWO had different ideas.
11:31Sadistic attack by the NWO and The Rock.
11:33No idea how badly this young man is injured.
11:35Hit him in the head with a hammer.
11:36I did everything I could that had the people boo me out of the building.
11:42Guys have gotta expect that from the NWO!
11:45What the hell's that? Wait a minute.
11:47The hottest heel that the business had at that time, the NWO, we told a pretty damn good story.
11:54Rock's in an ambulance, he's been blocked down.
11:55Wait a minute, that's Colin Nash!
11:58Where's he going?
12:00I'm gonna let the SmackDown on his triple ass!
12:03That door's been changed shut!
12:05The Rock couldn't get out if he wanted to!
12:07No!
12:08No, you gotta stop it!
12:09Oh my God!
12:12Take him outside, we put in an ambulance, we chained the ambulance, I run him over the semi.
12:17Do these animals realize what they've done, King?
12:20We need some help for The Rock!
12:24When thinking of the most daredevilish competitors in WWE history, Shane McMahon is without a doubt at the top of
12:30the list.
12:31Don't do it!
12:32Oh my God!
12:33God!
12:34From massive leaps of faith, to death defying feats, Shane defined his legacy by pushing the boundaries of professional wrestling
12:41itself.
12:42But could Shane's athleticism escape demonic ferocity?
12:46The big red machine, Kane, was on a path to destruction through WWE.
12:50And Shane was quickly identified as his next victim.
12:57Shane McMahon is showing no fear and is going after Kane!
13:02What is wrong? Shane!
13:04Somebody get back there and stop Shane!
13:07Oh!
13:08Kane came from behind!
13:11The monster came from behind!
13:13Kane was a total, total menace.
13:16Oh, for God's sake.
13:18For the love of God, tell me this is not gonna happen.
13:20No, he can't do that.
13:21This cannot happen.
13:21He will not do that.
13:22Fire was the theme of the Kane character.
13:25It led to the creation, the genesis of Kane.
13:29It added a completely different element and a completely different dynamic to the performance.
13:35But fire is, it's a force in nature and unpredictable.
13:39Someone please help this kid!
13:41Ricardo!
13:42Ricardo!
13:45Ricardo!
13:47Kane!
13:50This is just an example of the craziness that goes on in the backstage area.
13:54Us as fans, we're used to seeing brawls backstage.
13:58You know, we're used to seeing weapons here and there.
14:00But this was a whole new level.
14:01This was someone literally being thrown into a dumpster that is on fire.
14:06He was just one of those indestructible characters.
14:10Burn it in hell, you son of a bitch.
14:16Two of the biggest icons in WWE history are undoubtedly the immortal Hulk Hogan and Macho Man Randy Savage.
14:23When they came together to form the mega powers, the entire professional wrestling world was turned upside down.
14:30No way to stop us!
14:31No way!
14:32The duo seemed unstoppable and inseparable.
14:35That is, until the Macho Man grew weary of the relationship between the Hulkster and their manager, Miss Elizabeth.
14:42Hulk to do anything deliberate!
14:44Tensions would be at an all-time high on a February 1989 edition of the main event,
14:50where the mega powers faced off against the Twin Towers.
14:53During the contest, an unfortunate incident left Miss Elizabeth needing medical attention.
15:00Randy Savage hurled onto Elizabeth!
15:03What followed would be one of the most intense scenes fans had ever witnessed.
15:11The Macho Man in the ring, all by himself, nobody to tag off to!
15:16Come on, somebody help us!
15:18The cameras followed him all the way in.
15:21I hadn't really seen that before.
15:22Hulk Hogan, what a good guy, takes him to the back to get to the doctors.
15:27That's what she needed.
15:28Please, God help us, please help us!
15:31Randy, Randy didn't like that. He didn't like that at all.
15:35What is wrong with you?
15:38He was poking me in the face, he got real intense.
15:41Those eyes!
15:42Lost Elizabeth, you understand that?
15:44You got my face!
15:47He definitely made some serious contact with that belt.
15:50Somebody stop that idiot!
15:51The chaos!
15:53The chaos!
15:53He took the boots to Brutus, who comes in.
15:56Brutus!
15:57Somebody get some help back there!
16:00Pat Patterson flies out of frame.
16:04The WWE Women's Division soared to new heights in 2019, with the female superstars proving their passion and skill week
16:12in and week out.
16:12And no three superstars epitomized this passion more than Becky Lynch.
16:16The man has arrived!
16:19Ronda Rousey.
16:20The baddest woman on the planet!
16:22And Charlotte Flair.
16:24I am the face of this whole company!
16:27The trio were on a collision course towards the main event of WrestleMania 35 in a winner-take-all championship
16:33match.
16:33In one week before the show of shows, Lynch, Rousey, and Flair were forced to work together in a six
16:39-woman tag-team match on Raw.
16:42Just like that!
16:43And now Ronda Rousey striking Charlotte Flair!
16:46But as we all know, it's better to keep your friends close than your enemies closer.
16:54These three women now look to beat the hell out of each other!
16:57This is the lead-up to an historic main event. This is the first-ever all-women's main event at
17:04WrestleMania 35.
17:05And what happened on Raw really made us invested in this match.
17:10They are being led out of the arena here, live on Monday Night Raw!
17:15It was feeling like, oh, oh, damn, this is gonna go down.
17:20Handcuffs ain't even stopping these girls.
17:22It was getting real, and I think we hadn't seen that much aggression from the women, especially in a backstage
17:28scenario.
17:29Hey! Hey, guys! Cut it out! Calm down, ladies! Calm down, ladies! Stop it! Calm down!
17:34It really seemed like, are you sure all this is supposed to be happening?
17:38Get the door!
17:39Get the door!
17:39Get the door!
17:40Get the door!
17:41Get the door!
17:43Somebody get this under control!
17:47What?!
17:48What the hell?!
17:49It got people's attention, and it got people talking.
17:52A lot of unexpected things.
17:54It was awesome!
17:57Everybody was just beating each other up.
18:01One of those things that you just can't write, people felt that.
18:04That is the damnedest thing I have ever witnessed.
18:07The main event at WrestleMania, handcuffed and arrested here tonight.
18:13We've now reached our number one moment, and it truly encapsulates just how shocking and vicious backstage
18:19brawls can be.
18:20On the road to WrestleMania 40, Cody Rhodes had his sights set on the undisputed WWE Champion, Roman Reigns.
18:26Although I respect you, Roman Reigns, please understand, I hate your guts.
18:33But standing in his way was the ever-present threat of the bloodline, the family of Roman Reigns,
18:38which included the final boss, The Rock.
18:40You challenge Roman Reigns.
18:42You challenge the final boss.
18:44You don't want none of that.
18:49Oh, shit!
18:51Fuck!
18:52Fuck!
18:53Fuck!
18:57He's a super performer, and he's scary, and he's unhinged.
19:01Look at you now, boy!
19:02And I think that makes for a great heal if there's a layer of fear and doubt.
19:08The Rock's got your attention now, doesn't he?
19:10You pieces of .
19:13You're hearing The Rock cussing, unedited, and it's like, are they supposed to be airing this?
19:19Is this real?
19:20Look at your boy, Mama Rose!
19:21It felt like something we just don't see on WWE programming.
19:25That was something that felt like The Rock had gone over the line.
19:30Your son's blood on Johnson's hands!
19:32Becoming final boss, I can exercise real legitimate power.
19:37So, you know, when The Rock says, he's your boss, he is your boss.
19:43This is what happens when you with the final boss!
19:48It has allowed me to say things that I've wanted to say for years now.
19:58The Rock embraced ultimate savagery to send a major message to Cody Rhodes.
20:08The backstage brawls of WWE are amongst the most thrilling and ferocious confrontations in history,
20:14leaving us astounded and nothing short of amazed.
20:17You never know just how chaotic things can get inside a WWE arena.
20:22Well, that'll do it for this edition of WWE's Greatest Moments.
20:25Thanks for joining us on this wild ride through the best of backstage chaos.
