Between being hanged by Undertaker and The Brood at WrestleMania, killing Al Snow’s dog and feeding it to him, wrestling Al Snow in the Kennel From Hell match at Unforgiven, and feuding with The Big Show over Show’s dead dad, Big Bossman had a wild 1999 to say the least.

[@Spacewizzard090]

A true Hall of Fame performance, if ever there was one

[@claymathewselevator8121]

[@brainofwombat]

He would be such a great guy to have around as a wise old veteran in 2022. Gone way too soon.

[@Cursed_Mark]

Don't forget that he beat Steve Austin, in his prime, in a gauntlet match with the Corporation.

[@wezleeclinton5850]

You rarely hear people talk about Bossman these days. I always thought he was extremely underrated. Definitely gone too soon.

[@trmptboy2007]

Speaking of Teddy Long's weird character development through WCW and then redoing it in WWF, I remember that weird time about 10 years ago how Nunzio was a ref in WWE.

[@num1Jaysta]

Wow I missed that happening

[@redbigun]

Stephanie's reason for turning on her father was probably one of the best character motivations for a heel turn in WWE history because she definitely had a point that her father used her and put her in danger all for his war against Stone Cold Steve Austin. And she manages to be one of the most hated heels in the company which adds so much to the drama and anticipation for her inevitable comeuppance. The Authority angle definitely needed this version of Stephanie because she was willing to humiliate herself to get people over much like her father did unlike what we got where she rarely, if ever got her comeuppance.

[@kevinramsey417]

It's for my money the most logical heel turn ever.

[@ZackBlackwood97]

I think her Authority comeuppance was being arrested, and an accidental spear. Definitely wasn't enough because she always came back like nothing happened

[@zoraizasim2459]

what are you talking about? her comeuppance in the Attitude Era was Rock/Jericho encouraging people to call her a slut/whore. It was really not a good time for female heel performers. "willing to humiliate herself" , you just want to call her $2 slut,admit it. Rock used to beat her ass aswell. That kind of stuff would not fly in the PG era.

[@steveharvey2102]

Agree 100% But in general, you do have to give her ctedit for her insane match against her father, a few years later! What a crazy family! Thanks to all of them for the entertainment. We got our money's worth back then! Story wise of course, not when it comes to actual wrestling. Cheers from Canada

[@michaelsinger4638]

Stephanie’s heel turn here was done brilliantly. And when she explained her motives on Raw the next night, it made total sense as well.

[@steveharvey2102]

I agree, it was almost perfect. The only thing I would have changed, actually has to do with Jeff Jarett. When Jeff was getting heat for his match against Chyna, he put almost every woman into the figure four, even the makeup lady and Lilian Garcia! It was like, he had lost his mind! He had Steph set up for the move but either Test or shane saved her :( I think they passed overv a great opportunity. It would have got Jeff insane heat for his title match. And Stephanie would have got a lot more sympathy and could blame Vince for not paying enough attention to keep her safe! Wasted opp. IMHO Cheers from Canada

8:59 Good point on Teddy Long's Hall of Fame WWE career, Zane. This is like if Bill Alfonzo returned to the WWE or debuted in TNA (Impact) as a referee and not as a manager blowing his whistle. You called it right down the middle, Z-man.

Yeah that storyline was so official! I really miss the days when there was actually some suspense and you would actually be surprised when you seen some of these matches. Nowadays it's so predictable that I literally can call exactly what's going to happen 2 weeks before the Pay-Per-View. Also WWE has this thing where nobody can take a clean loss, so it's always some b******* some interference or roll up! What happened to the days when m************ would just count the lights, then the next night you count the lights for them! If you're good enough character those losses don't matter.

[@th3gr81]

I wasn't surprised. The things Vince did to her made me wonder why she was still "Daddy's little girl".

[@CryingLord]

Triple H is probably one of the most layered characters in wrestling. From his attitude, the theme music, and his trunks design. He was always ahead of his time, that man is definitely one of the GREATS

I used to own the original UK VHS copy of this PPV, and yes. Miss Kitty was shown uncensored before Sgt. Slaughter covered her up. Also, Val Venis probably learnt that Spanish due to his time in CMLL in Mexico as their World Heavyweight Champion. He had worked in Mexico and Puerto Rico prior to being signed to WWF.

[@Obscusion2]

It's so amazing to see just how horrible & unforgivable a heel the Big Bossman could be during the Attitude Era, simply because by all accounts Ray Traylor was one of the nicest men ever seen in pro wrestling. You can only imagine that doing all of this abhorrent stuff was so much cathartic fun for Traylor, because he'd never be anything like this in real life.

[@tvolution1]

As ludicrous as the story for the main event was-I totally brought into it. And I think the pre-match promo was really nicely done with some great music choices. This just felt like a very special time in WWF when things were really starting to cook. The making of HHH as main eventer which he solidified a month later in the street fight, Kurt Angle new on the scene, Jericho’s first title and that tag-team Battle Royale really highlighted the depth in that division. Also like JR referring to Australia’s Greg Norman as one of South Africa’s finest golfers.

I actually didn't remember it at the time this video came out, but rewatching this review finally flipped a switch in my head about it. I actually first started watching Smackdown, and thus wrestling in general, literally the episode before the Raw with the wedding, which was a hell of a time to try and learn what all was going on. Hearing about the wedding the next week on the Smackdown afterwards, my first thought was "Yeah, that sounds about right for how it felt like this was gonna go." Thanks for helping me remember that little bit of personal history, Brian.

Awww, agreed. I was always an HHH fan. I was the only female wrestling fan I knew as a kid. All the males who watched loved Rock or Austin. I was SO EXCITED when Stephanie turned. I was like "Finally, someone sees in him what I've always seen!" Even as 9yr old, I knew they were meant to be. You can't fake the way Steph beams when they exchange stares. He blushes every time he looks at her. Deeper when he grins. So sweet and evil. #MHE4Life
