I like how Vince Russo is hiding his face and only showing his hand like he's Dr. Claw from Inspector Gadget. 😂

to be fair, Dr Claw was far more creative.

The X Files theme + Vince Russo swerve is so hilarious.

[@ludacrisbutler]

Predicting every WCW storyline to be a swerve is hilarious and depressing

[@DasKame]

Man, even as a 13 Year old i figure that out quick "Oh Man i will help you tonight Buddy pal my friend-HAHA SWERVE!!!!"

[@shadowmagus0413]

"...or is all just one giant swerve, bro" had me laughing every time.

[@SquealPigSqueal]

The smart money says…yes…yes it is. I love that after 200+ episodes of Reliving the War it only took about four weeks of Russo to completely kill our boys enthusiasm for this project lol

[@dasdeke]

Here to take a little survey. Who here is down for "a it's a swerve bro" counter?

[@christosanagn.9041]

Don't you mean a "little swervey?"

[@jtown1022]

Trivia: The Maestro was the son of the OG himself, Gorgeous George. The piano gimmick was supposed to be a tribute, apparently.

Given David Flair's inability to get out of his father's shadow, i think everyone can agree what he needed was something special: The Big Bossman to show up in the Blues Brothers car and call him a bastard.

Just one letter out.

They really let Scott Hall wrestle in that condition. I'm kind of shocked.

then again, they ran an angle a year prior that turned Scott Hall's very real alcoholism into a storyline.

Let me tell you about Bill Goldberg 😂

[@mikem10481]

When Sid died, I realised that he had never had a feud with Kane. That would have been something..

[@DasNordlicht91]

I imagine if Sid stuck around in the WWF for 1997/1998, we would've gotten some sort of Kane feud with him, and it would've been kinda cool.

[@warhoundpp]

I didn't realize rikishi went from new dancing guy to attempted vehicular manslaughter that fast

I honestly thought Rikishi debuted with the dancey ass gimmick ages before went all Carmaggedon on Austin.

​@@deancreambetweensyeah, looking back at it, I feel people just run with the flow when it comes to history. Their were a few gems in WCW 2000 and a few stinkers in WWF 2000 that were either weren't looked at carefully or were blown out of proportion. Overall, it is all about how people enjoyed things in their personal view.

Including ppv's and special episodes such as the thunder and smackdown ones plus the unopposed episodes bring the total number of Reliving The War episodes to the total of 317 episodes . I just love this series. I have everyone of those 317 episodes saved and backed up so I can watch them God Willing with my Grandkids when they get a little older

You sir are a true hero.

[@InsomniacRocker]

It's funny seeing Kane vs Big Show on this episode. I just saw a youtube short earlier of Kane on Taker's pod cast where they were talking about all the heat Big Show had coming into the WWE and how he seemingly carried over the WCW type politics he maybe learned from being around Hogan, Nash, etc.

[@tz4637]

This series will be remembered for a long long time. Thank you WB

[@natedoggcata]

It is quite astonishing to see Vince go from the one of the most hated heels in wrestling history to one of the most over babyfaces on the roster in a single year.

[@Bad_Gazpacho]

And then he goes back again. That evil bastard had a special talent for the business.

[@PhenomsServant4]

Just goes to show how hated HHH had become.

[@OGMan316]

The best part was you making fun of Roddy Piper returning to WCW for the umpteenth time. I know this wasn't the first time you pointed it out but it's still hilarious.

[@freakshowfilmfestival3591]

On the Six Feet Under Podcast Kane said Big Show worked stiff, so before he would hit him he would say "sorry" and one night Kane had enough of that. 🤜💥😵✨

[@dimitrinicomanis]

The PTC brings back some old memories! I studied media at uni from 99-02 and did my final dissertation on WWF! It was called 'Laying The Smackdown: The growing concerns of violence within professional wrestling and the effects upon its audience' - I got a first and was the most interesting topic I've ever written about! 😁

[@daa589]

As much as Bret respects Goldberg ?

[@nicktaylor2657]

He's not been arrested...yet

[@PhenomsServant4]

In all seriousness he’s not going to get arrested with his money. Best case scenario, he pays a few million to the victims, he remains blacklisted from the WWE and his family completely cut ties with him.

[@sharmellkeane3924]

Shame about the run ins but Bret v Jarrett looked a banger. Greatest babyface and the greatest heel since I've been watching wrestling.

I don't remember them ever having a match, you think Bret would have mentioned working with him.....
