That's a stupid catch phrase. Taz is saying his opponent can beat him....and if his opponent can beat Taz, then how is Taz allowing anyone to survive if he is being beaten. "Survive if you can...beat me if I let you" would still sound dumb but not borderline retarded like the slogan Taz actually said.

@@DeanMoxley87 His calling of Foley's world title win is still one of my absolute favorite calls of the Attitude Era and he really helped make that moment something even more special. I respect Cole for that much. The reason Cole has subsisted in that role for so long is because he rolls over and says whatever Vince pipes into his ears, regardless of how idiotic it sounds in context, and because of that same exact reason Cole comes off as a fucking goofball most of the time. His commentary OUTSIDE of the WWE is actually quite competent.

The Smackdown commentary for Taz, with Michael Cole was an audition. "I hate it.' "I don't want them (the WWE) to tarnish my legacy."- Taz Jim Norton, comedian (UFC Unfiltered with Matt Serra), is one funny guy. I liked the Sabu story on RAW. "I don't know why I am angry." - Taz on "living the gimmick" off stage, outside of the arena. He had a passion for radio broadcasting (10 years).

To a degree, yea he probably came up with the decision to start wearing pants but I think it was cuz he started to get out of shape and didn't have the same fit body he had in ECW so he wanted to hide it. Once he changed his look you pretty much knew he was not gonna be a main event guy, hell he was barely mid card then moved onto commentary.

Always felt a certain kind of way how they just doused Taz's flame early in WWF as a wrestler, but really interesting to hear how they pushed to be a commentator. The commentary spot is an extremely important part of the production and it's become a lost art. No match has the needed spark without it, the same as a lack of storyline or controversial meaningful build up to a match.

That german suplex where kurt flips bakcwards is LIT and u can clearly see TAZZ protect kurt. I watched this match earlier this AM before watching this. I saw the protect hiccup before i heard tazz mention it.

Tazz once visited my dad and grandparents old embroidery shop for some hats and towels (Long Island Monogramming) in the late 90s or early 2000s. My dad told me I could come into work that day and meet him I was too shy and didn’t go in. I still have the signed picture Taz gave my dad in his man cave. Unfortunately my father passed in 2013 and while I doubt it, I like to think that my dad was the one who made some of the stuff that Tazz might have worn when he was wrestling.

WOW! I find out a lot about Taz' transitional changes from his ECW days going to the WWF that I always wondered about. I always wondered why they never called him "The Human Suplex Machine" in WWF. If i remember for a short time WWF announcers did call him "The Human Wrecking Machine". Slightly different I know. The extra z in Taz I always thought was WWF's way of avoiding copyright infringement from Warner Bros. but that was never the case! I also thought it was the WWF that made him change to the buttoned sleeveless shirt and cargo pants but again I was wrong all those years! He also had sunglasses as well. So much you can learn from hearing a shoot interview or insider podcast. I still say his WWF run was crap compared to his ECW wrestling days as a pro wrestler.

Jim Cornette has explained this on many wrestlers and Taz is right. Vince was clueless to other wrestling promotions. Cornette said once that McMahon thought no one would know who Terry Funk was and Cornette laughed saying everyone knows who he is. If it wasn't WWE's thing, they didn't want anything to do with it.

I don't think they were saying to vince "Hey vince, this guy, he is going to hurt somebody". I know and i am sure Taz knows as well they were saying "Hey vince, this guy, he is too small to mainstream against the much bigger heavy weights." Those bastards at the wwe office were discriminating against Taz's height. They may bill him as 5'9 but we all can clearly see Taz is really 5,5 maybe 5,6. Chris Benoit was billed 5'10 but we all know he is 5'7 could be 5'8 to 5'9 with boots. Taz wrestled Benoit once and you can clearly see benoit has at least 2 inches over Taz. I am not knocking Taz cause man did he have power, he is my fav ECW wrestler. But it was his height and lack of body mass that made the WWF at the time decide to fodder Taz, eventually, thankfully because of his personality make him an announcer. Eddie Guerrero was about 5'6 to 5'7 with boots 5'8 and they pushed him cause he has the body mass even being shorter then most average heavy weights. Eddie was built and had the figure Taz never had. Shame on the WWE.
