From BULLETS to BALL SACKS With Buff Bagwell (Dark Side of the Ring Season 5 Review)

[@moe6702]

“From bullets to ballsacks” he actually put that in the title 🤣

[@JamestravisJohn]

The Bagwell family sound like they can be characters from the GTA universe.

[@standardofexcellence]

Dlc for gta 6 when the mods come in

[@hardnewstakenharder]

Just a regular pro wrestling family like the McMahons.

[@kevinlee9929]

The Invasion is not just the biggest missed opportunity in WWE History. It is the biggest missed opportunity in WRESTLING history SMH

[@Slop_Dogg]

Yep. A historic, landmark fumble.

[@alexandru5369]

I try too forget that even existed talk about horrible timing and extreme pettiness combining into that abortion of an angle

[@coolinwithq2405]

Lost my grandfather last night and wow did I need to listen to this today. Very entertaining. Bagwell had quite the life lol

[@claymathewselevator8121]

Sorry for your loss ♥️

[@PTBIC]

Sorry for your loss🙏🏾

[@joemendoza2292]

Sorry to hear that. I lost mine on January 1st, so I feel for you.

[@marquan1976]

Sorry for your loss

[@stevenjames1333]

I’m sorry brother, I lost my grandma in 2000 and it still hurts. It’ll get better it’ll just take time. I know he’s proud of you, keep your head up ❤️

[@g-dub5272]

“Oh hey buddy” 😂🤣 11:08

[@lancethefilmguy9392]

While I have never been a fan of Buff Bagwell in WCW, I am happy for him that his is turning his life around for the better. At least he is alive to tell his story, which is more than what we can for others who are not here with us. Also, God bless DDP for helping these guys get their lives together. That man is a treasure. 🙏✝️

[@TheVampirePredator]

Did you listen to this recap? He did NOT turn his life around. He was swindling people just recently.

[@doubles7533]

The crazy thing is, when you watch that Bagwell Vs Booker T match from RAW, it really wasn't even that bad. There's been dozens of worse matches on WWE tv.

[@4zafinc]

Crowd dint give it a chance. Eddie vs Rey Halloween Havoc type effort couldn't have salvaged it on that occasion

[@146zigzag3]

I didn't think anything could top Marty Jannety, the first thirty minutes of this blew it out the water.

[@Jennifer_Lewis_Beach_Living]

Fans: Marty Jannety has the craziest “Dark Side” story. Buff Bagwell: Hold my beer….

[@armandotorres8962]

“Hold my balls”

[@cwell510]

11:00 Omg! I'm on my lunch break here at work listening to this absolutely cracking up laughing! 😭😭😭

[@mikegames3464]

“I’m buff. I’m tough. I’m the stuff. And if you get in the ring with me, you’re just…………not enough”

[@lordkwazz36]

"From Bullets to Ballsacks" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Trademark that!

[@PsychoticFruitfly]

should be the title of bagwell's biography

[@MerpTime]

When I saw this was a topic for Dark Side, I was like oh man this is going to be boring, it'll probably be about how Bagwell and his WCW years and lost his opportunity with the WWE. OMFG.. when you hear about the shoot out with his dad and manscaping stories.. I was in shock and at the same time was laughing my ass off. This was definitely an entertaining episode to say the least.

[@coresan9956]

From bullets to ball sacks 🤣🤣 What a title

[@IleanaRivera-hr9gi]

I actually met Buff Bagwell a couple years ago, at my nephew's highschool, he was doing an Indy show with Scott Steiner and Billy Gunn. During intermission buff Invited, my nephew, cousin and I in the ring. He let my nephew wear his goofy hat, and we took pictures with him. He was a decent enough guy.

[@majtechtings]

Wholeheartedly agree about DDP needing his own wing in the hall of fame. That man is a genuine angel on earth and his youtube channel? All this man does is be awesome and help not just wrestlers but everyday people. Love him.

[@thedarkemperor9292]

Make an award called the DDP Award dedicated to wrestlers helping out fellow wrestlers and/or the public

[@majtechtings]

@@thedarkemperor9292 I could honestly see WWE possibly doing that one day because they love making segments and documentaries about wrestlers or employees needing help and rising like a phoenix from the ashes.

[@danielwilliamson1577]

Buff Bagwell's dad is ALL ELITE.

[@masonclark4770]

9:15-11:25: I have NEVER laughed so hard at this story. I know I should be deeply disturbed by this story, but I can’t help but laugh so fucking hard.

[@sdd619]

That episode of Raw with Booker T v Buff Bagwell was my first Raw. I just realised this as Jason described Austin & Angle beating them both up backstage. As a remember a huge roller door.

[@williamjones1077]

Mom shaving his balls….I’ll never be able to unhear this.😝😝😝🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@demonictaint4029]

I've been listening to Solomonster for years, and this is the hardest I've laughed at anything in idk how long. This was hilarious.

[@siegmund87]

Bagwell really is one of the more underrated wrestlers I've seen. Before he broke his neck, he really did have potential to be a top level guy and he was a great worker. After he broke it, he wasn't the same in the ring, but he was ready to be a top babyface and WCW just totally screwed it with that double cross on Rick Steiner. After that double cross, he lost all the momentum as a top guy.

[@claymathewselevator8121]

Scotty Riggs story is very uplifting

[@josephdelledonne2098]

I was like you, I was like wtf several times. This story was crazy.

[@robertdoyle5359]

“I’m not sure Steve gave em the best coke.” 😂

[@lb2.0.45]

I'm glad that Buff is starting to get his act together thanks to DDP but man this episode was something else. I'll never unsee the reenactment of Judy shaving his balls 😂

[@jordanbyford2693]

Solomonster you are one of my favourite youtubers absolutely hilarious DDP is a wrestlers angel what a man

[@benespinosa6725]

this was a pretty informative episode of dark side of the ring 2 cold Scorpio still looks the same after all these years I learned so much after watching this episode.

[@Jbgunnerliveshow]

Yep. Still looks like the same crackhead he looked like in 91

[@makaveli4205]

2 cold Scorpio was awesome in ecw

[@mrterp04]

24:29 I’d have been so tempted to ask “Buff, where’s the stuff?”

[@samoanjoseph1457]

My takeaway from this is two things. 1) Maybe Judy was so thankful to have a son that would kill to protect her that shaving his balls was no big thing. 2) I have to wonder how "friendly" Buff and Scorpio truly were if Scorpio is giving interviews that the guy isn't packing. Not a bro move, ESPECIALLY if Buff isn't packing. A bro would lie on camera for you. "I saw him in the shower once and I've never forgotten it." And that's vague enough where it could go either way.

[@cole6843]

Even Norman Bates would be horrified by that bathtub story.

[@rayvenkman2087]

And Chris Chan would get Chris Solid.

[@mr.enrike2564]

I havent laughed this hard in a while. Thanks solomonster

[@evaldasmatulaitis2953]

Emptying a home owned machine gun on a pack of geese sounds like the most american thing ever 😂😂😂

[@mrterp04]

The Bagwells reminded me of every rich family in every small town in the USA

[@janinebrittanica4314]

I was a WWF fan in middle school when the Buff neck injury happened and I remember how bad it looked when they replayed it, over and over in slow motion. I remember Buff coming back heel, and I always assumed it was a work, from that time until now hearing this episode. Because why would you work against the sympathy of a real neck injury? Oh that's right, because it was WCW.

[@King4sshole89]

Holy shit, this episode was amazing! Buff will always be the Stuff!

[@makaveli4205]

Buff daddy 4 life

[@KayfabeGames]

I cried listening to the story about the balls 😂

[@BBRRE]

Bagwell sounds just about as bright as his fellow Trumpers

[@AzureSkywalker]

The title 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 solomonster got me corpsing at work

[@LuckySTR8]

We need a Hurricane vs Buff Bagwell feud on TV at some point

[@ScarFace5566]

Too bad they didn’t cover or Air footage of the shoot of the Airplane fight between him and Scorpio! Also Sean Oliver of Kayfabe Commentaries has quite an interesting story about old Buff 😂

[@mrterp04]

Only in America could a story like this happen.

[@rayvenkman2087]

And only with Bagwell would you have a parent hand your group of friends some dope before going out like they’re a pack of condoms.

[@thecharmcityplayerbrandona8827]

I'm not going to lie I would love to see Bagwell return to the wrestling scene, probably as a manager for a young tag team.

[@jwnj9716]

And if you don't pick him, then I guess you're just not enough. The guy teamed up with Heisenberg to battle a monkey.

[@GeneKing-lz8xg]

Fastenyourseatbeltsfolks!!!!😂😂😂😂😂

[@floridian_reptilian]

one can only wonder what else buff and mama bagwell have done that nobody has walked in on. good god.

[@dawnclark4635]

Growing up I had the biggest crush on this guy. It's a tie between him and,soap acxtor,Michael Easton as to who was my first crush. Needless to say,I'm glad that it's gone and if it wasn't gone before this it would be gone now. Having his mom shave his balls? My God! I've dated guys who have an affinity for their moms but that's a limit I'm glad to have never hit.

[@4zafinc]

😂😂😂 Please tell me you developed better instincts by the time you actually started dating

[@henrikschmidt3964]

If my mom had ever expressed any interest to shave my testicles, I'd find it deeply disturbing. That is bordering sick. Even more-so than the shooting story.

[@Bsnowman22]

Wow this was a WILD episode 😂

[@MichaelSpikes-pv6kl]

Buff bag well is a wcw legend

[@cctitansfan]

That title has New York Times Best Seller written all over it

[@ShootItALBY]

This didn’t feel like a Dark Side episode 😂

[@janeeyx5672]

I was not shocked at all when he said that he became a stripper right after high school LOL. Of course a guy like him would do that.

[@johnenigma8506]

At least you can see the logic in a Custody of Dominic match.

[@4zafinc]

No wonder Ric befriended Judy. Only Bagwells could match Steiners in their insanity

[@Gametester110-qf8vs]

*Regarding the American Male theme:* Anyone else think the guy that sings is the SAME dude who did Hulk Hogan's "American Made"? Which btw, is actually a GOOD theme for Red & Yellow Hulkster. You guys should listen to the next to get this song out of your heads.

[@Tim85-y2q]

This turned out to be one of the most fascinating episodes in the series to me. I knew Buff was a goof but I didn't know he was the Honey Boo Boo of pro wrestling.

[@eptx830]

Buff is the stuff. I still love Marcus Bagwell!

[@claymathewselevator8121]

[@mrterp04]

After all these years we still can’t get enough.

[@theresawebb1968]

This was a crazy story bagwell had a crazy life talking balls & a slap.

[@Lordeightbane]

You should’ve use the bullets to balls as the title . Bagwell was one of my wrestlers as a kid

[@cococinnamon2236]

[@franco727]

To be fair, compared to what too cold Scorpio is rumored to be packing everyone is small.

[@claymathewselevator8121]

Same Eric Bischoff is right Buff Bagwell is lovable

[@claymathewselevator8121]

Buff’s dad should’ve been a character on WCW too 😂

[@jerranspearman3369]

good review

[@BullseyeRey]

I am actually surprised they didn't try to get Shane Helms' side of the story.

[@wa2k99]

What's up with that?!

[@siegmund87]

Generally they stay away from people who are with WWE. Although I wonder if HHH would be okay with it. Obviously Vince wouldn't, so they wouldn't bother.

[@tashrif46]

27:14 did you really expect the Undertaker to question Vince's booking decision on DDP? The guy hardly said anything about his own streak being broken at Wrestlemania even though he felt like Brock Lesnar did not need it. Plus there was a story of how Undertaker and other guys like JBL did not like DDP because he would come in before and try to lay a match out and they were like and given the animosity between WCW and WWE, they didnt take it lightly. So I would cut Undertaker some slack

[@Ricardo_Montegarza]

10:47 😂😂

[@MichaelAlderton]

Buff Bagwell that's a mess opportunity never had the world championship always liked him but you gotta give it up for Scotty Riggs that brother been threw it as well they have both had the life respect them both good talk

[@coreypayne1208]

My question is who didn't Scorpio like in WCW

[@gothsteeze]

Road Warrior Hawk. They got into a fight when WCW was in North Korea.

[@newjerseyan]

just watched the ep on KZbin. never knew about the fight with hurricane

[@alexandru5369]

Yeah Buff's a goof but glad Riggs was mentioned by all accounts he was a solid dude that was dealt a bad hand ( trying too re-do a house too be wheelchair accessible isn't cheap in the slightest) not like he was a top guy so not making top money. He looks amazing for his age

[@navy4181]

Couldn’t he have waited the contract out like the other WCW guys? He should’ve debuted when Steiner did.

[@A1ml33y]

For the Movie about Buff Bagswll you gotta get Chris Evans as Buff Bagwell And for Judy Bagsell you gotta get Melissa McCarthy Cheis Helmsworth as DDP Danny Trejo as Scotty Riggs

[@erniegutierrez410]

Hurricane vs Buff Bagwell will be very interesting

[@johnenigma8506]

They need to cover WCW New Blood Rising as a future episode because there is so much shit to go through.

[@siegmund87]

WCW 2000 in general would be a 3 part episode. But it's also been beaten like a dead horse, so there's nothing new most people wouldn't already know.

[@CDouble28]

Man Me and my two Kids who are 22 daughter and 20 son. We work Indy shows last one I worked the sound for the show. The show had Buff Bagwell as a special guest. My daughter said who the douche with the weird hat lol. Plus she said Drew could ya imagine knowing this before we met him. I miss out on saying Hey who shaved ur balls lol

[@harveymcelroy9332]

He was the stuff!

[@TH0MASBR00KS]

This was wild.

[@nachomanrandysauvage8257]

I grew up in the south around a lot of hillbillies, and they lie through their teeth constantly so I wonder how much of his childhood is a shoot or a work. But a crazy episode , nonetheless. Lol, the calf implants.

This is absolutely hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@PsychoticFruitfly]

with some of the weird facts in this guy's story (specifically the manscaping incident), i wouldn't be surprised to find out there was some serious Freudian shit going on in that household.

[@StanTheMan450]

Personally, I kinda like the outlandish storylines, like the DNA Match or Big Boss Man stealing The Big Show’s dead dad’s casket 🤣🤣

[@Matt-cr4vv]

Biggest missed opportunity? Nah. Disappointment? That’s fair. People have all bagged on it being a missed opportunity while never appreciating why it was the way it was. The size of contracts they woudve had to offer all the top names people wanted to see would have been insane. If a top name guy can stay home for a year or life while they collect seven figures to take time away of the grind knowing that the grid of the WWF schedule of the day is gonna be there in a year what amount of money will it take ti get a guy to decide that instead of getting seven figure to rest and spend time with their family that they should pass it up to be on the road 200+ days? It would be safe to assume that the amount would need be substantially more. Now factor in the effect overall on company pay structure and your roster when your largest downside guarantee is $1M with the pay relying on revenue share if you go out and give WCW guys guarantee much higher to convince them to come in right away. Does it seem like your current roster is gonna be cool on the current max grantee number or will they expect that you increase their downside to that level and lead to a much higher cost commitment for an invasion story? Of would it have been best to wait for everybody to join and risk that people would stil care after a year if WCW being gone? Or consider how when the NWO came Scott and Jevi were out immediately with Hall getting let go or Nash being hurt the away and missing so much time. Goldberg was there because he hated it and Sting just wasn’t interested. The angle was never going ti be what people dreamt it would be and as disappointing as it was the way it actually happened did strong business.

[@SjC420]

The Undertaker let Brock Lesnar end the Streak because Vince McMahon wanted it. U really think Taker had any say so about how Vince booked DDP!? Don't be a mark Jason!

Honestly, the way WCW guys were getting treated on television at this time was the main reason why I just gave up on modern wrestling. I’d become a fan of WWF in 91 but I’ve been a wrestling fan long before, but it just looked like Vince was the world richest Mark. On top of all that why would you do that in Tacoma Washington? It was either the week before or the week after they were going to be like in Georgia or North Carolina, which is straight up WCW country and that’s where they should’ve done it but this was all planned by Vince just so he could get his jollies off. Fuck Vince and I’m glad he’s going through it now.
