#1 - Survivor Series 97 was Bret Hart's last night with the WWF. "We had to get the belt off him because he could've showed up on Nitro the next night with it." The fact is Bret still had roughly 3 weeks left on his contract and even WCW had agreed to let him add another week on top of that to finish things up. The worst thing WCW/Bischoff could've done was announce that they'd signed Bret and he'd be here next month, we're getting their champion but he'll purposely drop that belt soon to come where the big boys play.

Not quite. The fear from McMahon, as is well documented, was that ERIC BISCHOFF would go on air after Surviror Series and say that he had signed the then WWF Champion Bret Hart to WCW. This was to the point that Bret reportedly asked Eric Bischoff to hold off on the announcement until he no longer had the belt. This was about perception of the top WWF guy jumping to WCW while champion and, to be fair, McMahon had zero reason to take Eric Bischoff at his word. He trusted Bret, he knew he couldn't even show up on WCW until December 1st, but he didn't trust Bischoff.

This is mostly unrelated, but might be of value for a future video about times the WWE flat out lied in attempts to change history. The WWE had a weird home video release years ago, and they had Michael Cole provide brand new commentary to the final match between the Ultimate Warrior's team and Andre the Giant's team at the 1989 Survivor Series. During the match, they stressed it was Shawn Michael's "debut" at the Survivor Series, even going so far as to say "... what a debut at the Survivor Series!" when Shawn gets eliminated by Arn Anderson. Apparently, they wanted us to ignore Shawn's true Survivor Series debut from 1988 as a member of the Powers of Pain's team against Demolition's team. I honestly have no idea what the point of this lie was, but it was pretty ridiculous in how aggressive they wanted to spin the false narrative and rewrite history.

The Pontiac Silverdome had 82,000 seats for football games. But then you add all the seats on the floor, as well as everyone working the event (which every sport does count), and 93,000 is very possible. And everyone who was at the event, as well as every picture shows that the place was packed to the rafters. Now how many people paid to be there is a different story. WWF/E comped a lot of tickets to ensure the building was full. That's the number I've always heard was around 72,000.

The nWo was an Eric Bischoff idea and a Eric Bischoff creation...it was nothing to do with the Kliq it just happened to have a couple of members who used to be part of the Kliq when they were in the WWF.

Did you know at WM20 that the main event wasn’t a triple threat anymore. And HHH actually won. Memory may say Benoit. But there was actually no wrestler by the name Chris Benoit ever in WWE

Most of those stadiums wrestlemania was held in the last fifteen years can't physically hold as many asses they say they put in those seats, in some cases there would have to be at least four people per seat to get that number

A lot of this is also because of Kevin Dunn. He has Vince's ear and takes a giant shit on wrestling as a whole.

Sigh...Black Saturday isn't mentioned because it would be like dialogue about trade disputes in a Star Wars film. The slot was re-sold, and those funds were used to launch Wrestlemania.

Some potential honorable mentions: burying almost everyone from ECW and WCW, Reign of Terror, Seth's penis, 2015 especially Rumble, Benoit, Jericho after he went to AEW, etc.

And if you listen to Hulk Hogan, Andre just rolled over and died right after their match. You know, six years later.

Randy Orton besting Chris Benoit to be the youngest world heavyweight champion, they can bring it up, but they can’t bring up who he beat to win it 🤔

I hate the downplaying of ECW. In the 90s there was 3 major promotions in the United States, WWF, WCW, and ECW. They were revolutionary in technical, and lucha libre, as well as hardcore. A long time before WCW, and WWF.

Also....WM3 attendance is legit. A sold out NFL game did about 80k in that stadium. Meltzer even said it was a legit sellout....he just looked at the wrong seating capacity and stuck to it cause he just likes to bury WWE

WWE isn't the only one who rewrites history. Sometimes fan sites do to. What Culture and others rewrite history having Ministry Undertaker as the best time of his career, and how "Taker" or the American Badass/biker gimmick were hated and a low point. The truth is the exact opposite. The Ministry was the last ditch effort to save a stale gimmick that didn't fit the times, fans clearly were not very interested in those segments. Then When Biker Taker as the American Badass, people went nuts! The Undertaker gimmick rarely got the sorts of pops that Taker got nightly. Arguably, this was the height of his career. He acknowledges that the Taker gimmick saved his career.

From his own mouth: “I always felt like, if I started feeling stale, my audience is probably feeling it before me. You get wrapped up in what you’re doing. So, the small changes, the breaks at the right time, but I don’t think I would had made it through if I hadn’t changed when I did to go to the American Badass. The character, I don’t think, would have lasted through the Attitude Era."

Not to mention Harley Race body slammed Andre the giant before Hogan did. And Randy Orton was not the youngest heavyweight champion in history. That was Tommy Rich. Tommy beat Harley Race for the NWA heavyweight title when he was 18. Randy won his at 19.And in all actuality was the more prestigious belt between the two because of it’s longer lineage and muti promotional backing.

8:57 "Numbers don't lie." Who was that mere minutes ago said that WWE exaggerate attendance numbers? Isn't exaggeration a form of lieing.
