00:29Polka media, destroy you!
00:33The pop culture phenomenon.
00:35Who do you think you are?
00:36That's Hulk Hogan!
00:38The 24-inch pythons.
00:41The immortal Hulk Hogan.
00:43The greatest professional athlete in the world today!
00:46What you gonna do when we take a look back at the iconic career of WWE Hall of Famer Hulk
00:52Hogan?
00:53Train, say your prayers, eat your vitamins, and believe in yourself, brother.
00:58This is WWE's Greatest Moments.
01:05He feels so mad!
01:07Oh my God, what the hell are you doing?
01:11Absolutely unbelievable!
01:13Polka media is here.
01:21Welcome everyone to WWE's Greatest Moments.
01:24I'm Michael Cole.
01:24And on this edition, we are paying homage to the man that took professional wrestling to a new stratosphere, the
01:30immortal Hulk Hogan.
01:31What you gonna do?
01:32With a career that would span an incredible five decades and earn him 12 world championships, Hogan became the blueprint
01:38for what it meant to be a global superstar.
01:41Look at all the Hulkamaniacs!
01:42Can you hear a mean gene?
01:43With legions of royal Hulkamaniacs standing behind him, Hulk Hogan was undoubtedly the most recognizable star in all of sports
01:51entertainment.
01:51Leading him to headline the showcase of the Immortals, WrestleMania, an astounding eight times.
01:57And it all started with the very first WrestleMania.
02:00The immortal one would come together with another television legend, Mr. T.
02:04You dead meat! You dead meat! I pity you, fool!
02:07To battle Rowdy Roddy Piper and Paul Orndorff in a star-studded main event for the ages.
02:1525,000 plus on their feet! The electricity is unbelievable!
02:20That crowd that night, that was the highest, highest point of electricity.
02:27I came up on the ring and I pointed right at him.
02:29He said, we're gonna have a war tonight, boys.
02:31Here comes the Hulk! And all four of them are going out at the corner!
02:35And it's one of them already!
02:38A slam by Mr. T!
02:40Then I tag it off to Hulk Hogan. He's the closer, because it's still his show.
02:44And tags the champ!
02:46In comes the Hulk with a right hand, driving quarterback!
02:49People knew the wrestling business was changing that night.
03:06All in all, it was a perfect springboard for what we needed to launch the WWE into the stratosphere.
03:11The night could not have been better.
03:16While Hogan was a juggernaut in the ring, he also had the gift of gab with a microphone in his
03:20hands.
03:21Often preaching the three commandments of Hulkamania.
03:24When you train, say your prayers, eat your vitamins, believe in yourself, and believe in Hulk Hogan, you believe in
03:30Hulkamania.
03:31His impassioned speeches made it clear where the power lies.
03:34This is where the power lies!
03:36When it came to defending the good ol' USA against the American turncoat Sergeant Slaughter.
03:41I used to be proud of my country, but not anymore!
03:47No one rallied the troops better than the Hulkster.
03:53You know the only thing that's more dangerous than nerve gas going up through your sinuses, brother?
03:59Is when Hulkamania starts creeping up on you, brother.
04:02And it's getting ready to eat you alive, Sergeant Slaughter.
04:06WrestleMania 7, I did have America really behind me when I had the feud with Slaughter.
04:10You know something, Sergeant Slaughter? You talk about all-out war, brother, at WrestleMania 7. You talk about playing by
04:18your rules, which are none at all. Well, let me tell you about rules, brother!
04:22Here's this former G.I. Joe who turned against his country.
04:26They wanted Hulk Hogan to knock my head off.
04:29At that particular time, a lot of people were great in the ring, but they weren't great on the mic.
04:33He had it all.
04:34Hulkamania is running wilder than it's ever been.
04:37As a kid who lived that era, he was six years old and Hogan was preaching to me.
04:41It was like he jumped right through his TV screen and talking directly to you.
04:45The pythons are pumped. The mania's ready for the WWF title.
04:49He was fighting for the USA, a hero to so many people, me being one at a young age.
04:56So what you gonna do, Sergeant Slaughter, when the largest guns in the red, white, and blue run wild on
05:03you?
05:06After years of success at WWE, Hulk Hogan would join competing wrestling promotion WCW.
05:12Welcome Hulk Hogan!
05:15For decades, loyal wrestling fans yearn for the day they'd see the legendary Ric Flair face off against the immortal
05:21Hulk Hogan inside the squared circle.
05:23They're gonna rule out any doubt as to who was the best. You can't beat Ric Flair.
05:30Hogan would make his highly anticipated WCW in-ring debut at the 1994 Bash at the Beach for the WCW
05:38World Heavyweight Championship.
05:44It's the match we all talked about as wrestling fans. The match we always waited for.
05:49Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, 1994 Bash at the Beach. That was a dream match. It really represented WWE versus WCW.
05:58I had a bunch of celebrities kind of come in when I wrestled Ric that first night.
06:02High five Shaquille O'Neal!
06:04Ric was a monster, and I was a monster, and him and I together made each other bigger monsters.
06:10Every eyeball in the world is glued to this.
06:13Don't go split!
06:14All he needs to do is just let me bring him down to one knee, and we'll own this joint.
06:22Never have I seen a match where fans were responding to every move.
06:38And the Hulkster become the WCW Heavyweight Champion of the World!
06:46I loved working with Hulk. It didn't matter if we won or lost. I was wrestling Hulk Hogan.
06:51And Rick put me over, which gave us that huge shot in the arm we needed.
06:57Still to come. History in the making now. This is a Wrestlemania moment.
07:04Here's the NWO!
07:06Since the dawn of time, man has been plagued by itch and irritation from not wiping clean.
07:11What man didn't realize is that wetter cleans better.
07:14See how wet dude wipes completely clears while dry teepee smears?
07:17Ditch the itch and switch to wet extra large dude wipes for the best clean.
07:20Pants down.
07:21Bet you can't run as fast as T-Mobile.
07:23Bet you I can.
07:25Well, you better pick it up, because T-Mobile now has the fastest 5G home internet.
07:28Watch this!
07:30I'm okay!
07:31T-Mobile now has the fastest 5G home internet. Just 35 bucks a month.
07:36Always running out of liquid detergent?

10:04Ain't nobody prepared to lose their freedom.
10:07I don't want to go to prison.
10:09You're looking at the death, tell me.
10:10I can't even think right now.
10:12The First 48, new episode Thursday at 8,
10:14followed by a new season of Accused, Guilty or Innocent at 9.
10:18Part of Crime and Investigation on A&E.
10:22When Scott Hall and Kevin Nash left WWE for rival promotion WCW in 1996,
10:29it sent shockwaves throughout the wrestling world.
10:31The two would wreak havoc every week,
10:33interrupting matches and accosting management,
10:36all the while hinting that a secret third man
10:38was the ringleader behind all of their unrighteous acts.
10:42The big man and the medium-sized man and our surprise buddy are gonna carve them up.
10:51The identity of Hall and Nash's Accomplished would be revealed at Bash at the Beach 1996
10:56and changed the landscape of professional wrestling forever.
11:03I don't see three men here tonight.
11:06Where is your partner?
11:08All you need to know, little man, is he's here and he's ready.
11:13You know, we're doing this who's the third man thing.
11:15This big angle at the Bash at the Beach.
11:16We're gonna launch the NWO.
11:18They have said the third man is here, but he is not in the ring.
11:21Hulk is in the air, flying to Daytona Beach, where the play-per-view is originating.
11:26And we still don't know if Hulk agrees or not.
11:29Hulk Hogan is here! Hulk Hogan's here!
11:32When I went out, it looked like I was coming out to say Macho Man.
11:36Yeah, sir!
11:37Who's bad now, boss?
11:39Hulk Hogan arrives!
11:41Hulk, Hulk, Hulk!
11:42What is he doing?
11:43Oh my God! Is he the third man?
11:45He's the third man!
11:46I wanted that natural reaction from fans.
11:49How could our heroes stab us in the heart?
11:51You can call this the New World Order of Wrestling, brother!
11:57I know there was none more shocking moment than Hulk Hogan being the third man.
12:02That move changed everything.
12:05We have seen the end of Hulkamania.
12:09After years of reigning in the red and yellow, Hulk Hogan turned his back on his fans and
12:14donned a grim black and white color scheme, joining the infamous New World Order.
12:20Here's the NWO!
12:22His new look came with a new name, Hollywood Hulk Hogan.
12:26And he'd go on to turn the wrestling world upside down.
12:28This is NWO country!
12:33But if Hollywood really wanted to take over, he needed the WCW title.
12:38The only thing standing in his way was a giant.
12:54Hogan, you know, and the giant, that was a major, major match.
12:58Two of the most dominant figures in our sport.
13:01The giant in WCW was such a physically impressive athlete.
13:08Hogan can puff up and do everything he wants to do.
13:11There's guys that work out that are strong.
13:14And then there's natural giant strong.
13:16That spectacle was part of the drama and the emotion.
13:20It was amazing.
13:21Don't slam that gigantic niche!
13:24He laid him out!
13:25He laid him out with a one!
13:27I can't believe it!
13:27One, two, nine!
13:29We got a new champion!
13:30We got a new champion!
13:32Hulk loved to cheat to win.
13:34Dirty cheat and heel, he took to it.
13:37He liked it.
13:38He had fun doing it.
13:40Oh, that's spray paint.
13:41Oh my God, they're going to spray paint.
13:44I cannot believe this.
13:45This is unbelievable.
13:46I got a knot in my gut about this situation.
13:49To get them to really buy into the storyline and really hate me,
13:53I felt like I accomplished something.
13:56The NWO is the only way to go.
13:59And what you're gonna do?
14:03Still to come.
14:05It's like you stuck a blade in my gut.
14:07You make me sick, macho man.
14:11It's time to raise the bar on the bazaar.
14:15Might as well make it worse.
14:16With real arrests and very unreal behavior.
14:19It was criminal wearing that bathing suit.
14:22Stop running.
14:24My Strange Arrest.
14:24New episodes Wednesday at 9, only on A&E.
14:27Watch next day on the A&E app.

15:08Park it in a high yield savings account.
15:10And voila, we're on vacation.
15:12Time is America's number one choice for banking.
15:14The three for me, only at Chili's, is now available with the big crispy chicken sandwich that's so big,
15:19the McDonald's McCrispy has nowhere to hide.
15:21Oh, never mind.
15:23It was hiding right there.
15:24Hey, little fella.
15:25This Chili's three for me is the best $10.99 you can eat.
15:29New Modelo Chalada Suprema.

15:44I've been working on my glow up lately.
15:46Not just on myself, but my credit score.
15:48PerPay is making that part easy.
15:50For just $5 a month, they report up to a $1,000 spending limit to all three major credit bureaus.
15:56Payments are made straight from my paycheck, automatically.
15:59And for myself, I started drinking more water.
16:02Finally replaced my cracked phone screen with my PerPay spending limit.
16:05Even started saying, I'll just stay in tonight and actually meaning it.
16:09But seeing my score actually move, that's the real glow up.
16:11Start your financial glow up at PerPay.com.
16:16My soothing lavender used to be a calming force around here.
16:19Back when people were melting down over workforce planning, it was hot stuff.
16:24Budgets burned up, employees burned out, and I was their aromatherapist.
16:28Then they got more real help with Bamboo HR.
16:31Now there are no fires to put out.
16:33And my job's extinguished.
16:37Need a better way to infuse calm into your workplace?
16:40That's Bamboo-able.
16:41That's Bamboo HR.
16:44We know why you've put off your best smile, the time, the cost, the anxiety.
16:50That's why Aspen Dental is changing how dentistry is done with leading implant and denture technology
16:56and on-site labs that get you in and out.
16:59No more waiting for tomorrow.
17:01Now's your time to experience the Aspen Dental difference.
17:05Get 20% off dentures and implants.
17:10Aspen Dental.
17:12It's time to smile again.
17:15There's no doubt that in the 1980s, few could match the captivating charisma of Hulk Hogan.
17:20One superstar who came close was Macho Man Randy Savage.
17:24Macho Madness is on a roll and it can't be stopped.
17:27These two powerhouses would come together to form the Mega Powers,
17:30a widely popular tag team force, accompanied by Savage's manager, Miss Elizabeth.
17:36I love Elizabeth just as much as the Macho Man does, but in a different way.
17:42However, Savage's jealousy would lead to the Mega Powers exploding.
17:46Those eyes lost Elizabeth.
17:48You understand that?
17:49You got my face.
17:51And Kogan, you got rust in your heart for Elizabeth.
17:55Yeah.
17:55And you got jealousy for the World Wrestling Federation champion.
17:59You make me sick, Macho Man.
18:02WrestleMania V, the two former friends would face off in a volatile main event
18:07for the WWE championship.
18:12This is truly what the word main event was meant for.
18:17Once the bell rang with Randy, the chemistry was just like a constant flow.
18:22Concerned look on the face of Miss Elizabeth.
18:25It was not only just about the championship, it was about Elizabeth.
18:30How much lower can you go than go after your best friend's woman?
18:34Macho Man plays that jealous card.
18:36It's simple storytelling.
18:38Everyone gets relationships.
18:40Elizabeth is gone.
18:42Now we'll get down to wrestling.
18:44The elbow.
18:44He got it.
18:45He nailed him.
18:46No.
18:52The hard form of storytelling and Liz's participation, I didn't realize how special it really was.
19:00The Hulkster, once again, holds up the gold.
19:05The monstrous Yokozuna wreaked havoc from the moment he entered WWE.
19:11Always on his side was the devious manager, Mr. Fuji, who had a few dastardly tricks of his own.
19:17At WrestleMania 9, Mr. Fuji did the unthinkable to help the mighty Yokozuna
19:21in defeating Bret Hart for the WWE championship.
19:25Fuji, what'd he do?
19:26Look at this.
19:27Yokozuna, look so loud.
19:29We're going to do that.
19:30This isn't what the title is supposed to represent.
19:34Would anyone come to the aid of the Hitman and stand up against this atrocity?
19:41What?
19:43Hulk Hogan here.
19:44I felt an immediate roar when they saw me come out.
19:47I was like, all right, something crazy is going to happen.
19:49Yoko's going to learn his lesson.
19:53Hi, Yokozuna.
19:55It's your challenge.
19:57Let me go.
19:58Let me go.
19:58Right now.
19:59And you cover the ring.
20:00Right now.
20:02Hogan's around the arena.
20:03The fans getting behind Bret.
20:05I rolled in there.
20:07Hulk Hogan to the ring.
20:08Big.
20:10How can anyone defeat this man?
20:15He is that big.
20:20Oh, in the eyes of Yokozuna.
20:24Hogan, that title's game.
20:26And there goes Yokozuna.
20:28Hogan.
20:28Back to Yokozuna.
20:30Back to Yokozuna.
20:31Hogan to the cover.
20:31Oh, no.
20:32That's to Yokozuna.
20:33Oh, Hogan.
20:34Oh, Hogan.
20:35Oh, Hogan.
20:35By the time.
20:36Believe it.
20:37And to hold the belt up.
20:38All right, we got him again.
20:40It's felt right.
20:41The fans were so locked into Hulkamania.
20:48In the history of professional wrestling, there have been a handful of superstars that transcended
20:52the business and became megastars.
20:55The 1980s had Hulk Hogan.
20:57And the Attitude Era had the great one, The Rock.
21:00If you smell what The Rock is cooking.
21:07In a 2002, over 68,000 fans packed the Toronto Sky Dome for WrestleMania 18 to witness an icon versus
21:15icon dream match.
21:19History in the making now.
21:21Hulk Hogan was the guy in the 80s and 90s.
21:25The Rock is the guy now.
21:27This is a WrestleMania moment.
21:29It felt like the roof was going to blow off the Sky Dome, you know, and it was, like, really
21:33intense.
21:34You know, the stare down at the beginning, none of that stuff was planned.
21:38Most of it was listening to the crowd.
21:41That was one of the most incredible nights I have ever had in my career.
21:46Because the audience was 100% invested in our match.
21:51Listen to this.
21:52This is amazing.
21:54I don't know if The Rock knows what to think.
21:57It is.
21:58He switched roles with me and did something a bad guy would do to somebody.
22:03We were not anticipating what the crowd's reaction was.
22:07And Rock and Hogan ran with it.
22:09He most electrified move.
22:11It's sports in a day of today.
22:13People don't know.
22:14On Hogan.
22:15Hogan.
22:15Rock will the people tell them all.
22:17On Hogan.
22:18And the Rock wins it.
22:20To be able to have this incredible match with him was very special.
22:27He had done so much for our business.
22:30It was an honor to pass the torch to him.
22:33What an emotional ride!
22:37Up next is our final two moments of the countdown.
22:39It's Brad at the Fleet Center at Boston on its feet.
22:42What will take the number one spot?
22:43Look at the size of a giant.
22:45Good morning, buddy.
22:47My breath is bad.
22:49Bad breath ruining the morning?
22:51That yuck feeling is bacteria that grew overnight.
22:54New Crest Mouthwash actively controls bad bacteria for 12 hours.
22:57So you get your cleanest, freshest morning ever.
22:59Crest.
23:00When you give someone your word, you keep it.
23:03When you guarantee you'll be there, you show up.
23:06When you pledge to protect someone, you do it.
23:10Over a hundred years ago, a group of soldiers made those promises when they started USAA.
23:16And today, we're still taking care of those who served, their spouses, kids, and then grandkids.
23:22Because we're doing more than insurance and banking.
23:27USAA.
23:28Taking care of our own.
23:31Hey, I got her a little something.
23:33A little something, Dad?

25:24He needs to tell us what we need to know.
25:26I got a cool car innocence.
25:28That's when I fired the shot.
25:29I just want to be with my family.
25:31It's a living hell.
25:32We've got him in custody.
25:34All right, there's a jury.

25:46Throughout the 1980s, no one was more popular, more enthralling, or more successful than Hulk Hogan.
25:52No man could topple the Hulkster's empire.
25:54The greatest professional athlete in the world!
25:57But a giant might.
25:59At over 7 feet tall and weighing over 500 pounds, the endodell Andre the Giant challenged Hogan's status.
26:06I'm here for one reason.
26:08To challenge you for a world championship match in WrestleMania.
26:12With over 93,000 screaming fans in attendance at WrestleMania III,
26:17the irresistible force was set to face off against the immovable object
26:21when the immortal Hulk Hogan put his WWE title on the line
26:25against the undefeated Andre the Giant.
26:30Look at the size of a giant.
26:33I mean, Hogan is 6'8".
26:34Andre is 7'5".
26:36I was worried because I didn't know if I could get him up, to tell you the truth.
26:41Go for a slam!
26:42We almost got him up!
26:44You know, when you hear these legends of Andre and seeing Andre so larger than life,
26:48it almost seems mythical.
26:52That's the first time I think that the Giants ever got knocked off his feet like that!
26:56You can feel it when it's happened.
26:58You can feel it was going to be huge.
27:02Look at this!
27:04He slams his giant!
27:05When he got Andre up with all of his might and got him turned over and gave him that slam,
27:11I think that was kind of a slam heard around the world.
27:16I don't believe it!
27:17Hulk dropping a big leg!
27:19Over for the cover!
27:21He got it!
27:22And I think that was such a big moment for the company, for the Hulkster, and for the
27:27movement of Hulkamania.
27:29What can I say?
27:30I never thought it could be done!
27:32I'm very proud of that WrestleMania.
27:34It was a defining moment of Hulkamania.
27:37And that guy right there has made history all over the world.
27:43It's now time for our number one moment, and it's one that changed the trajectory of professional
27:48wrestling forever.
27:49In 1984, when Iranian nationalist the Iron Sheik held the most coveted plies in all of
27:54sports entertainment, WWE needed a hero.
28:01Enter Hulk Hogan.
28:02Be a real American.
28:04And when the two would face off at a sold-out Madison Square Garden, the power of Hulkamania
28:10would be born.
28:14History could be made in Madison Square Garden.
28:16They have a lot of hate in their hearts for this man.
28:18The minute he stepped out into the aisle, the roof was coming off.
28:23It is the main event!
28:26It is for the World Heavyweight Championship!
28:30Pointed at the Sheik.
28:32I just looked at him.
28:33It was already there.
28:34The place erupted.
28:35He ain't waiting for a moment!
28:37He is on top of the Sheik!
28:39You know, this is patriotism.
28:41This is Hulk Hogan with the American flag against the most hated villain.
28:45A vicious clothesline!
28:46Sends him down!
28:48Sheik going for a slam!
28:49Gets him up!
28:50No!
28:50Backbreaker!
28:51Camel clutch coming up!
28:53When he put the camel clutch on me, I knew if I broke the hold, the place erupted.
28:58Hulk Hogan now stands up for the Sheik and rams it!
29:03Sheik going up Hulk Hogan and he drops a big leg on him!
29:08He's down for the cover of the leg!
29:09One, two, he's got it!
29:15A new World Wrestling Federation Heavyweight Champion, Hulk Hogan!
29:23That's when Hulkamania was born.
29:26Hulkamania has taken over!
29:27I mean, it was the perfect storm.
29:29It does not get better than that.
29:32Hulkamania is here!
29:35The immortal Hulk Hogan's impact in professional wrestling is unmatched.
29:39Hulk Hogan launched sports entertainment into mainstream pop culture, where it still stands today.
29:44And though the Hulkster may no longer be with us, there's no doubt that Hulkamania will live forever.
29:49Well, that'll do it for this edition of WWE's Greatest Moments.
29:53I hope you enjoyed this look back at the very best of Hulk Hogan, brother.
29:59Over 80,000 fans, welcome you to SummerSlam!
30:06SummerSlam, the hottest show of the year.
30:08WWE Summertime Spectacular has thrilled audiences for nearly four decades, and has produced some truly iconic moments.
30:16Here comes Hulkamania!
30:18From massive title changes...
30:20From massive title changes...
30:20And he got him!
30:21He got him!
30:22...to legendary clashes.
30:25No!
30:26Let's take a look back at the biggest party of the summer during one of the most prolific decades in
30:31professional wrestling history, the 1990s.
30:34This is WWE's Greatest Moments.
30:38Ooh, yeah!
30:44It's your summer!
30:46Oh, my God!
30:47What the hell are you doing?
30:50Absolutely unbelievable!
30:52Welcome, baby!
30:53I'm a fancier!
31:00Hello, everyone, and welcome to WWE's Greatest Moments.
31:04I'm Michael Cole.
31:05And on this edition, we're reminiscing about the most jaw-dropping and exciting moments from the SummerSlam of the 1990s.
31:12Are you guys ready for the hottest night of the summer?
31:15Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to SummerSlam!
31:19As we entered the 1990s, the ultimate warrior's rise through WWE was one to behold.
31:25Steamrolling through opponents en route to a WrestleMania showdown with Hulk Hogan for both the WWE and Intercontinental Championships.
31:33We have a new World Wrestling Federation champion!
31:37Warrior's victory cemented him as a top star in WWE, and soon became a target for many superstars to go
31:44after, including one ravishing Rick Rude.
31:47I'm coming to get you, Ultimate Warrior.
31:52Verishing Rick Rude!
31:53You will build the full fury of the Ultimate Warrior!
32:00And the two were set to clash at SummerSlam 1990, inside a steel cage.
32:09The Ultimate Warrior defends the championship!
32:12In a cage!
32:14In a cage, baby!
32:16SummerSlam 1990, a steel cage match.
32:20It was a grueling match.
32:22Oh, no!
32:24Working with Rick was just an absolute joy.
32:27Once you get so comfortable in a match, you can just do it without even thinking.
32:30Just show up at the ring, and it just happens.
32:32We have to have a victory here!
32:34We could be here all night!
32:35From the top!
32:36No!
32:37Oh!
32:38It was the perfect match-up.
32:41There was no one you loved more than the Ultimate Warrior, and probably no one you hated more than Ravishing
32:46Rick Rude.
32:47Going for the door, he's going, and he's going to be out!
32:50Trying to pull Bobby Hedon in!
32:51He just won't do that!
32:53Oh!
32:56The Ultimate Warrior, he's in control, he's about to win this match.
32:59Right before Warrior wins, he does the hip swivel to Rude.
33:02Look at Joe Rush, he's been down!
33:06Just shows how dominant he really is.
33:08I'll never forget that night, and he was great to work with.
33:14The Legion of Doom's emergence during the early 1990s sparked a new era for tag team wrestling in WWE.
33:21The LOD were physical, aggressive, and a damn fun tandem to watch.
33:26Doom is what you're going to receive at the hands of the LOD!
33:30Pocket Animals' immense popularity quickly launched them into the tag team title picture,
33:35where they would ultimately meet the champions, the Nasty Boys, at SummerSlam 1991.
33:40Under Street Fight Rules.
33:45Not wasted any time!
33:47Attacking immediately!
33:49I remember wrestling there first, a SummerSlam.
33:52Madison Square Garden against the Nasty Boys.
33:54Look out!
33:56It's such a reaction and a feeling, you really can't put it into words.
34:00Oh!
34:01Get beat up!
34:02You get in the ring with them, you're in trouble.
34:04Everything they ran into, they just wiped them out.
34:07So this was our first real test for the Nasty Boys.
34:09Nasty Boys pulling out all the stops here.
34:13Woo!
34:14Chips are here, baby!
34:16Oh, look at this!
34:18He got the run!
34:20Oh, welcome to the head!
34:22Hulk gets up there!
34:24He's out there!
34:27We got the champion!
34:29We got it!
34:34Our biggest title win today, because the reaction that people gave you was like second to nothing.
34:40It was just nuts.
34:42What a moment for Legion of Doom!
34:45It's mayhem here in Madison Square Garden!
34:50There may be no greater superstar manager duo than The Undertaker and Paul Bear.
34:55The World Wrestling Federation has become his personal barrier ground!
35:01These two terrified audiences and superstars alike, with their otherworldly presence and imposing demeanor.
35:08Mankind, if it was your aim to get my Undertaker's attention, you'd certainly accomplish that!
35:14But there was a strange feeling in the air heading into SummerSlam 1996, where The Undertaker would take on the
35:20freakish Mankind in the first ever Boiler Room Brawl.
35:29Mankind is in that Boiler Room someplace.
35:37I love that the Boiler Room match is different, it's gritty.
35:41They were beating each other up.
35:44They were fully falling off the ladder.
35:51They were beaten up and banged up.
35:53But you didn't just have to get out of the Boiler Room into the ring, you had to claim ownership
35:58of the urn.
36:02I've got him down, and all I've got to do is for Paul Bear to give me the damn urn.
36:06Nothing will stop The Undertaker!
36:09All he has to do is take possession of the urn!
36:13Give him the urn!
36:14He turns his back on me.
36:17Wait a minute.
36:19Give him the urn!
36:20Mankind!
36:21Driving that man to the car!
36:24Nobody thought Paul Bearer would ever turn on The Undertaker.
36:29Go, go!
36:30Ha!
36:31Ha!
36:32Ha!
36:32No!
36:33When he hit me with that urn, you could feel the heat coming from the audience.
36:39Mankind is the winner!
36:42Those are the kind of moments that you live for in the business when you can get that gasp and
36:47that, no way he did that.
36:49And, uh, that was one of those moments.
36:51My God, I don't believe what I'm seeing here!
36:55Till they come.
36:59Briar's made us a new treat.
37:01There's a whole sundae in there.
37:03Now my favorite vanilla has chocolate swirls and brownies.
37:07Now she can just scoop faster.

39:46Sibling rivalries are often one of the more unique and complex stories in WWE history.
39:51This was certainly the case during Bret Hart's year-long clash with his brother, Owen.
39:55At the 1994 Royal Rumble, Owen shockingly betrayed the hitman, tired of standing in his big brother's shadow.
40:02I don't need you, Bret Hart, and I've proven that.
40:04And I don't need my family.
40:06If they want to turn their backs, go ahead.
40:08I'll stand on my own.
40:09Owen's envy and jealousy furthered their conflict all the way to SummerSlam.
40:13Owen, how do you solve something like this?
40:15Well, I'll tell you how, in a steel cage match, there's only one heart that's going to walk
40:20out of there with the World Wrestling Federation Championship belt.
40:24Ladies and gentlemen, this contest is for the World Wrestling Federation Championship.
40:31It was a story that everybody could understand.
40:33It was brother versus brother, and that is a match that is truly a clinic.
40:38These two brothers have come here to SummerSlam to battle it out.
40:43Just like when they were kids, I mean, they're pulling out all the stops here.
40:47That match is really the psychology of the cage and trying to get out.
40:52He's out!
40:53He's not, he's not out!
40:54And they get a head start, both legs are open!
40:58Oh, unbelievable!
41:00It was an interesting contrast seeing them removed from their technical backgrounds,
41:04being forced to fight it out inside a steel cage.
41:07Oh, wait a minute, look at that!
41:09And Bret runs it!
41:20I've always said it, I think it's the best cage match I ever was part of, for sure.
41:24Bret Hart has done it!
41:26They're in SummerSlam!
41:30In 1999, Stone Cold Steve Austin reigned as WWE Champion,
41:35stomping a mud hole into every superstar he came across.
41:38But the biggest party of the summer was right around the corner.
41:41A triple threat match was set for SummerSlam, live from Minneapolis,
41:45between Austin, Triple H, and Mankind.
41:48I ain't gonna give a rat's ass who's in the ring with me.
41:51Let's ring the bell and let's get to it.
41:52That's all I got to say to you, so get your little ass out of here.
41:55And if the stakes weren't high enough,
41:56the match's special guest referee was none other than wrestling legend
42:00and then governor of Minnesota, Jesse the Body Ventura.
42:04We all know who is the power in Minnesota.
42:11The title at stake!
42:13The first personal score pinball wins this match!
42:17Going into back end of 99, man, I was on fire.
42:21I was hauling ass.
42:22The business was crazy.
42:24McFoley, and Triple H, at that point, had the best year of their careers.
42:27And they both stepped up and knocked it out of the park.
42:31We had this really great chemistry together in the main events, Bob.
42:36We wanted to be great and willing to do anything to make it great.
42:43It was fun to break the monotony of politics.
42:47In terms of hell, no!
42:49You're not gonna win it that way!
42:50Jesse rules!
42:51Jesse rules here!
42:53And plus the opportunity to interact with three of the greatest of all time.
42:59There he is!
43:00That's the start!
43:01That would be it!
43:02Now mankind interrupted the count!
43:04Summer Slam, 1999.
43:06There was kind of magic in the air that night.
43:10Mankind's got the land hook!
43:12Can't beat!
43:13Yes!
43:14Mankind is a champion!
43:16I'm lucky that I became a part of that story.
43:19This is only baby boy!
43:21He became the WF champion at Summer Slam!
43:26Still the count!
43:28What a matchup this is going to be!
43:31Ooh, yeah!
43:34I like the work on Night Shift a lot better.
43:38This could be a dangerous situation.

46:12DealDash.com.
46:18All right, let's go.
46:20Ha-ha.
46:21What?
46:22Coming back home.
46:25In the late 1990s, The Rock and Triple H led their own distinct factions.
46:30Game with the loudmouth D-Generation X.
46:34And the great one with the imposing Nation of Domination.
46:38The Rock has Triple H exactly where he wants him.
46:41Maybe you smell what The Rock is cooking, Tabroni.
46:44The groups battled it out for months with their respective leaders fighting over the Intercontinental Championship.
46:49The People's Champ is gonna enter Madison Square Garden, the Intercontinental Champ, and he's gonna leave the Intercontinental Champ.
46:58With a better time and place to settle the score than at the biggest party of the summer in a
47:03ladder match.
47:09The Intercontinental title at stake.
47:11In 1998, it was Madison Square Garden.
47:14We had a ladder match.
47:15It was our big moment.
47:17Here we go.
47:18This should be a real dandy, ladies and gentlemen.
47:21The Intercontinental title was very, very important to the both of us.
47:25Two great young athletes putting their bodies on the line.
47:28We fight over the Intercontinental title to get yourself to that next level to become the top guy.
47:34What else is gonna happen for this son of a guy?
47:38Both of us wanted that spot.
47:40And we were so fired up.
47:42I don't think I've ever seen any more intense competition for two young guys like we're seeing here.
47:48The ladder match was the tip of the iceberg, but their meteoric rise as superstars made it special.
47:57Yes! Triple A's did it!
48:00It projected both of us into that main event here at an event as big as SummerSlam at Madison Square
48:06Garden.
48:06That ladder match to me was something special.
48:09What a hell of an effort!
48:14Wrestling's greatest couple is undoubtedly the Macho Man Randy Savage and his one true love, Miss Elizabeth.
48:20The duo captured the hearts of the WWE Universe for years and remained fan favorites throughout the Macho Man's legendary
48:27career.
48:28I love that man.
48:30Whoa!
48:32And headed into the suburb of 1991, Savage wanted to solidify his relationship with Elizabeth.
48:37Elizabeth, will you marry me?
48:42Ha ha!
48:43Oh yeah!
48:45Yeah!
48:47The WWE Universe saved the day for SummerSlam.
48:51As Macho Man and his bride-to-be would take to the altar in one of the most emotional moments
48:55in WWE history.
49:01We are gathered together in the presence of this company to join this man and this woman in the bonds
49:07of matrimony.
49:09Randy loves Elizabeth unconditionally.
49:12I mean, he was so madly in love with her.
49:15Elizabeth, you take this man as your lawful wedded husband.
49:20I will.
49:22How long were people craving for that moment?
49:26And boy, oh boy, did Elizabeth deliver.
49:29Do you take this woman as your lawful wedded wife?
49:32Ooh, yeah!
49:36Macho Man and Miss Elizabeth.
49:38That wedding went to perfection.
49:40Now I pronounce that you are husband and wife.
49:44You may now kiss the bride.
49:47It is the greatest love story of Romeo and Juliet of all time.
49:52What a woman and what a man!
49:58The Intercontinental Championship is one of the most prestigious titles in WWE history.
50:03But only one former champion could classify himself as perfect.
50:08I'm the greatest athlete.
50:09I got the coolest hair.
50:10I got the best body.
50:12And I got the Intercontinental Championship belt.
50:14The aptly named Mr. Perfect reigned as Intercontinental Champion heading into SummerSlam 1991.
50:20What a great champion this man is!
50:23But a new challenger emerged in the form of one breath the hitman heart.
50:27Mr. Perfect.
50:28You're not going to be perfect after you step in the ring with the excellence of execution.
50:33The tag team specialists look to launch a singles career.
50:36And who better to take down than the perfect one?
50:45The match I had with Mr. Perfect at the SummerSlam, I thought it was the best match on the card.
50:51Both of these guys in tip-top physical condition.
50:54But that moved the actual ring!
50:56Kurt Hennig was a bump machine.
50:58Kurt Hennig was able to go out and make any and everybody look great.
51:12It's going to sound so cliché, but I don't think there was a more perfect opponent for Brett that night
51:16than for him.
51:18The fingers work!
51:19No, he got it!
51:20I can't believe it!
51:22Nobody's ever kicked out of that!
51:25Perfect goes for a leg drop and Bret Hart smoothly reverses it into a sharpshooter.
51:32Oh, for Cogler!
51:34He's got a new champion!
51:35He's got a new champion!
51:37Oh, no!
51:38This is just such perfect Bret Hart.
51:42Kurt Hennig did it.
51:43SummerSlam turned me to put the torch right in my hand.
51:45Tears in the eyes above the dead!
51:49Mr. Perfect, you just weren't good enough.
51:51You're looking at the World Wrestling Federation Intercontinental Champion.
51:57Up next is our final two moments on the countdown.
51:59What will take the number one spot?
52:03Uh-oh!
52:04Oh, no!
52:05Bet you can't run as fast as T-Mobile.
52:07Bet you I can.
52:08Well, you better pick it up, because T-Mobile now has the fastest 5G home internet.
52:12Watch this!
52:14I'm okay!
52:15T-Mobile now has the fastest 5G home internet, just $35 a month.
52:20When you don't use Bounce, Stryer Heat can be a real monster.
52:24I steal the freshness from your chest-washed laundry.
52:28Bounce!
52:29It's like Stryer Heat static and makes your laundry fresh again.
52:33Put the shit on it with balls!
52:35You've never had Breyers like this before.
52:38Yeah, that's a whole Sunday, ready to be scooped.
52:40Creamy Breyers Vanilla, now with truffles, our thickest sauce ribbons ever,
52:44and none of the effort of making it yourself.
52:46This is how you Sunday.
52:48New Breyers Sunday Swirls.
52:50At Popeye's, we gave shrimp a bold Louisiana twist.
52:54Try eight crunchy butterfly shrimp served classic or dusted in bold Popeye's seasonings.
52:59Now available on Faves for only $5.
53:01Love that chicken from Popeye's.
53:05And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
53:08There's a better day coming.
53:10I know, I know.
53:12Oh, oh, oh.
