What's great about Becky's story is that she was never even supposed to get as big as she is now! Kinda have to thank ol' Nia Jax for busting her face open that night and giving us that amazing shot of Becky's face drenched in blood! The MAN was born!

[@tyrone5969]

Has they're ever been a more profitable botch that's made a bigger star? It became part of Austin's mythology and validated his toughness, but he was already climbing up the cards by then, and was having an amazing program with Owen. What happened with Becky came COMPLETELY out of nowhere, and made her one of the biggest stars in the industry, full stop. She's obviously not Stone Cold, but she's one of the most visible, famous, charismatic, and successful performers of a generation. Her being a British woman makes it that much more amazing.

[@sassou8584]

@@tyrone5969 She was already the most over person on the roster BEFORE Nia broke her nose. Listen to the crowd when she turns on Charlotte at SummerSlam or when she won the last woman standing match at Evolution. She got EDGE booed out of the building when WWE was still trying to turn her heel. People try to re-write history to make it looks like she was an overnight sensation, but she wasn't. The rise of the MAN culminated with that bloody shot, but it was a long built, despite WWE having nothing to do with it.

[@pjr238]

@@tyrone5969 sorry to burst the bubble but she’s from Limerick in Ireland. So much as we like to claim her like we claim Sheamus, or Finn Balor they’re definitely not British stars.

[@mistressgabby1]

I will never thank Nia Jax for anything

[@PansTheCatboy]

Absolutely love when you do your ad's for the sponsor of the video Pacitti, you are excellent in your production and acting of everything. Oh Adam Pacitti, you are indeed a treasure

[@llydrsn]

It should always be mentioned that Hornswoggle had that WeeLC match with El Torito which became the match of the night despite being on the Pre-Show!

[@EmmetRyan]

Adam's faux enthusiasm in the ad promos is a vibe

[@undertakernumberone1]

In regards of Michael Cole - Never forget that it was him calling Mankind's Title Win. "MANKIND HAS ACHIEVED HIS DREAM AND THE DREAM OF ANYONE WHO'S EVER BEEN TOLD 'YOU CAN'T DO IT!'" I find it kinda amusing how often that quite iconic Attitude Era Call gets completely ignored - I think mainly because it WASN'T a JR or King but a Cole call and for some giving him that might make it harder to crap on Cole.

[@pauliewalnuts829]

Spike Dudley as an honorable mention. The dude is 150 pounds and around 5'7. Total underdog.

[@hishark7082]

Becky Lynch , Dean Ambrose, CM Punk, Daniel Bryan and Mick Foley comes to my mind of surprising success stories wining the world champion

[@BasementBubbatunde]

Glad to see someone else say Dean. All I see nowadays is everyone claiming they all saw Dean as the leader of the shield, the one with the biggest ceiling etc. Yet I don't remember any of that in the slightest when they were a thing. Seth was the extremely atheltic crowd popping one, Roman was the Bulldozer and Dean was the gritty "down and dirty" kind of dude and there was no true leader. I'm happy he's had the success he had but out of those 3 he was easily number 3 as far as people talking about him "making it" go.

[@aliyahhussain4553]

@@BasementBubbatunde no that is Seth, the guy is a clown

[@killingragethrowback]

Foley should be number 1. He's the guy that is the most unlike what Vince thinks of as a marketable wrestler. Even Danielson was more his style, just smaller than the ones he had in mind since he was muscular and talented, but Foley only had his charisma and sheer guts.

[@joeboggio4002]

Becky feeling behind the super models or athletes is a heck of a thing. She's the ideal of both those worlds when combined. Glad she was able to climb to the top like how she has.

[@redwolf5047]

Adam does this ad reads like he was given an assignment for his A/V class and he's just taking the piss out of it Love it

[@jimbo_1312]

Pacitti and his mobile game promos dripping with sarcasm never fail to make me chuckle

[@tyrone5969]

Legit thought that that said fascism, and I was so very confused.

[@jimbo_1312]

@@tyrone5969 😂😂 adamito pacolini

[@RipperJack77]

I am someone that values storylines over matches and in-ring psychology over highspots and I think Bryan Danielson will go down as my favourite wrestler of all time. It helps that he also seems like genuinely good person.

[@isabellamorris7902]

Why not both matches AND storylines?? Psychology AND flippy shit??

[@RipperJack77]

@@isabellamorris7902 Well usually you are not gonna get everything. Especially psychology and flippy shit are hard to combine. The reason why I rate Danielson so high is because anything he is involved in gets good matches, storyline and psychology which is rare. Few wrestlers are such a guarantee for quality

[@jdiegoskinny]

I would out AJ Lee instead of Becky. She came in an era in which WWE hired women based on modeling experience and looks. She was told various times that she wasn't hot enough to be a WWE diva, yet she proved them all wrong and became the best divas champion in history.

[@sougotokiwa8439]

Absolutely. The Divas Championship was terrible, tho she was the best champion (tho tied with Paige).

[@omarcoronado2224]

But becky wasnt even suppose to succeed they only put the SD title on her the first time becasue Nikki Bella wasnt fully healed or ready and they didnt know who else to give it to

[@CodeOuch]

it is odd... I usually hate ads in videos, but these ones by Adam have me captivated!

[@ajkostival]

These Adam Ads are fantastic 😂

[@InkedupT-raw]

Becky lynch was suppose to be a heel but Became the most over star in wwe and when she had the blood on her face from nia jax! That cemented her status as ONE OF THE GREATEST!! 💯💯💯💯

[@LordNeos9001]

[@petergreg101]

Huh Michael Cole used to be a war correspondet before he made the jump? Makes sense, RAW is WAR afterall.

[@kyledempsey3693]

Crash Holly too light?! maybe you're forgetting, he weighed in at well over 400lbs!

[@memesurren7036]

i have not laughed at a cultaholic video in a while as i did when the james ellsworth exposed joke came up, good stuff

[@claymathewselevator8121]

I was actually listening to Colin Delaney’s Art Of Wrestling with Colt Cabana podcast yesterday 😂

[@optimus2008]

Cena wasn't supposed to be who he is today. Hell he would've been released if Stephanie hadn't heard his rap by chance. The fact that JOHN CENA was almost fired less than 12 months after his debut just sounds wrong, but hey, here we are.

[@btr9160]

1:59 considering it’s been literal years, since that PSN invite to your PlayStation was sent and not even looked at. I highly doubt this tbh Adam. That’s said, great video nonetheless.

[@brandongordon2392]

That Super Kick of Ellsworth tho

[@Nealuigi]

I may not always be interested in the things sponsoring these videos. But I'm happy they are paying Cultaholic bags of money.

[@j-sac]

NO MIZ????? Literally everyone hated this guy

[@Ken9284]

Crash was awesome

[@MetalGoatSolid]

Only ad I haven't fast forwarded lmao

[@Rookie395]

I’m sorry, but how was crash holly one of the lightest wrestlers during the attitude era? He weighs 500 pounds and has the scale to prove it.

[@Rocketboy1313]

Okay, here is the thing about Michael Cole, I have never watched a match he was commenting on where I did not say, "Jesus, Michael, shut the fuck up."

[@8thFromTheSun_]

The Undertaker. In that era, gimmicks like that didnt last. Ole Anderson even said he would never get over when he was in WCW (yes I know how Ole can be). Even Vince said he 'just looks like a big redheaded basketball player". Anyone being sattled with that would have failed. Considering he went on to be the greatest character in all of wrestling, I think he takes this easily.

[@ryanryanage]

Crash Holly shortest and lightest? He was over 400lbs..

[@ClovissenpaiDotR]

Vintage Michael Cole!

[@style3804]

James Ellsworth exp…. No

[@ian8745]

I remember Becky's debut on NXT doing a very bad Irish jig, it was horrendous

[@martinrubio3084]

Mick foley became a star

[@DevilSurvivor69]

Everytime I see Adam advertise one of these trash mobile games, I feel a piece of his soul die a little.

[@kyledunham7497]

I feel like AJ Styles should be on this list.

[@fatbean2000]

How is Mankind not one?

[@siddharthsen7035]

Weirdly enough, I was huge Becky fan right from the time wwe was pushing Charlotte and paige down our throats

[@gordonjamescowiest]

It's shame Crash Holly died so young.

[@MelonCauli]

Why? You miss out on possibly the greatest paid promotion in history

[@fybslygod7691]

Ellsworth shouldn’t have even been a thing.

[@21til85]

Outside of André, I think everyone that’s famous in wrestling is lucky and “unlikely” to have made it big. If the gimmicks off, that’s a no sell.

[@cortneysears2779]

Love Becky but she wouldn’t have had the room to become a star if it weren’t for AJ’s connection to the fans and starting the woman’s revolution…

[@martinrubio3084]

Cm punk is now in aew

[@NateOvTrinity]

That's not the correct use of "infamous." When talking about elsworth

[@MelonCauli]

adjective "well known for some bad quality or deed" Infamous pretty much sums up his pre-match promos... well known for being so bad they're good.

[@Jbow3607]
