Raw vs Nitro "Reliving The War" : Episode 77 - March 31st 1997

[@billbrasky555]

Nitro should get a bonus point for Savage lining up the lighting bolts on his bandana and glasses PERFECTLY.

[@mckennadoyle6415]

I’m sure he’s consistent with it too

[@ALR3]

I second this. Consistent macho madness points.

[@irighterotica]

He really did and it looks awesome.

[@BlueLighteningGojo]

The Davey boy chinlock is the most dangerous move to ever have come into existence.

[@speakingmoistly9912]

Only because by this point in time the Fire & Ice Double Shoulder had been retired.

[@jeremyburnet4855]

Closely followed by the Fingerpoke of Doom

[@caarrll7117]

Because he was taught by Chuck Norris

[@Yaboiwilsonnnn]

The recurring jokes crack me up every time, especially Davey's chinlocks, "Horsemen Business", Too Legit To Quit, and No Not The Quebecers. I love the numerous video game references too, Ron Simmons Mega Man had me in stitches

Somewhere in an alternate timeline, Vince McMahon calls for the bell to be rung after Owen applies that chinlock. This is the headcanon I accept lol

[@rhysredin3030]

"Conducting Horseman business" has become part of my daily lexicon.

[@trondrew]

I remember that Owen/Davey/Bret Segment like it was yesterday. One of the few things my dad and I had in common back then was our love for wrestling and the Harts, and we watched it together as it happened. Oh, the memories.

[@PlatinumRoseLady]

I will never forget that look Bret gave the audience when he was rebuilding the Hart Foundation - if looks could kill the first four rows would have been going up in flames.

[@PlatinumRoseLady]

@j d I totally agree. Makes me wish he'd do more acting.

[@thethairishsun]

Has anyone else noticed that while Alundra Blaze looked like your mates mum, Madusa looked she was a wild partying bachelorette? WCW also did a great job of making Miss Elizabeth look much hotter than her WWF days.

A friend and I were rewatching some old wrestling matches and decided to fire up Michaels/Bulldog at KOTR 96. He has no idea why I started marking out so hard on the third Davey Boy Smith Chinlock (TM), so I had no choice but to show him the greatness that is Reliving the War. We have another dedicated fan. Well done as always, Mr. Bios.

[@grammysworld5449]

WB at it again with the relentless Rocky attacks lol

[@Extreme4LYF]

HBK and HHH wanted Bret to beat Rock to stop the latter's momentum, as both saw him as a future threat. But always loved that Bret refused to beat Rock, and took him under his wing in 1997.

[@jabroni_z2686]

It was actually a match that would have benefited both Shawn and Hunter. If Bret would have won it would have took him out of the world title picture and it would have keep Rock from his push(even though it was failing at the time)think about it, why would Bret be in this position anyway? He was already IC champ like 4 years before this and was just WWF champ a couple months before this. The match made no sense but I’m glad Bret gave Rock a rub just by being in the ring with him.

[@cyrus2546]

jabroni_z that’s why Bret hated those two and why Rock refused to work with hbk after Rock became a star.

[@jamesabernethy7896]

I haven't been watching these at the time of release lately. I save great videos to work out to as they are always engaging and entertaining. I have made these same points before but I need to say it again. You do have a great sense of humour, but when cover specific events or career you give a great deal of honesty. When it comes to covering careers you give the stars their due respect, especially when they have had troubled lives / periods. That respect come through in, not only your choice of words but your delivery. You passion is also so clear which makes this one of the best channels I follow. I admire the work and best wishes for the coming new year.

The opening match on Raw was great on its own but the ending oddly improves it because at the time no one expected it.

The hart family reunion was one of my favorite wrestling moments of all time. I followed their stories all the way to that point and hearing brett recount everything and bring the group together to kick some ass was just great, it's really not every day especially in the WWE when story beats are followed up many years after the fact.

That Bret Hart promo really was beautiful and gives ya the feels , i hate how 97 ended for the guy , it was his magical peak in the WWF in my opinion , the greatest technical wrestler in the company but can also make you react emotionally and put glitter in your eye , take a moment to think about that , best there is , the best there was .... you know the rest.
