[@coconyt3623]

Yes! Please bring back retro ups and downs! There are so many gems throughout the years! The good, the bad and the goddamn hilarious!

[@Mike6BITW]

You've already done this one, but I'm happily gonna watch a new one 😅

[@wyattangle]

Bro I said the same thing 🎉 As much as I love Simon, there's nothing better than having him review terrible wrestling! It brings out the best in him lol...

[@OTJ8995]

It boggles the mind that Jake is the only guy from that main event still alive. His intoxication on this night is the stuff of legend but the three other guys who had to carry him all went before him. When humanity is long gone, it’ll be Jake The Snake and Keith Richards ruling two waring factions of cockroaches.

[@mrrizzla4961]

I thought Retro Ups and Downs has disappeared again. Glad to see it's back!

[@lightmasterj]

Finally Retro ups and downs is back

[@markphillips8668]

Yes it is

[@MBSchultz311]

Can we make this an annual thing, where Simon is forced to watch and review Heroes of Wrestling? 😂

[@foxfireinferno197]

My favorite bit from Jake's promo is when he says "If you've got 21, then I've got 22." Uh, Jake? If you have 22 in a game of blackjack, you lose.

[@michaelbreen7865]

First, it's "You wanna play 21? I've got 22." Second, Jake was drunk during that interview. All logic went out of the windows of Casino Magic for him.

[@ThomasMHead]

Simon! You're the REAL Hero of wrestling! Thank you for entertaining us, even when it's reviewing the worst show ever!

[@JL-sm6cg]

Also: "Nobody wins with the figure-four. It's the old-skool blue thunder bomb." Tito Santana, Greg Valentine, and Ric Flair: "Are we jokes to you?"

[@SpanishFly120]

My condolences for having to watch this twice, Simon. Maybe you should go and rewatch Wrestlemania X-7 again as a palette cleanser to cheer yourself up.

[@ernestgouker5939]

This had me laughing the entire time . Thanks Simon for reviewing it

[@JK-qx4xf]

YES. PLEASE BRING BACK RETRO UPS AND DOWNS. PLEASE!

[@TheLandofObscusion]

Stan Lane becomes Stan Lee, while Lou Albano becomes Lou Albino, so maybe Simon should have simply altered everyone's name for this video under the "The names have been changed to protect the innocent" excuse...

[@totz_the_plaid9625]

Dutch Manatee, Randy Rosenbroom, Shamu, the Mild Samoan, Marvin Janetty, Tony Rodgers, Fred Valentine, Sensational Terri, Joe Steele, Tuco Scorpion, Julian Fantastic, the Bushwalkers, Nicholas Volkoff, the Iron Squeak, Tully Brancher, Abdullah the Baker, One Gang Guy, Jimmy Snuka (no change since he's a murderer), Rob Orphan Jr., Doug the Slug, Tim Neidhart, Godzilla Dunphy, and Yoshi.

[@michaelbreen7865]

Don't forget 2 Cold Scorpio was called 2 Cold Scorkum at one point.

[@killercroc99]

Simon... Why did you subject yourself to this torture a second time?

[@MrMegaManFan]

"You've got 21? I've got 22." Any show with a promo that hilarious can still get a watch no matter how objectively "bad" it is.

[@MrNatethegreat54]

Let’s goo retro ups and downs is back!

[@BZM18]

Are retro ups and downs back? YES

[@InYourWalls101]

RETRO UPS AND DOWNS ARE BACK. I’ve been rewatching this series all week hoping it would be back. Thank you Simon 👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@albertmoreno6947]

To THE MOST ELECTRIFYING SPORTS ENTERTAINER IN ALLLLL OF KZbin- you deserve 10 GOLDEN UPS for reviewing this dumpster fire pay per view a SECOND TIME 😭😭😭

[@andrewjustandrew]

My favorite commissioner, captain Lou Albino 😂❤

[@edwardmorgan5373]

One positive about watching this show: contrasting Jake Roberts from this as to how he is today. An absolute inspiration to anyone who is struggling and wants to change.

[@nightbirdds]

It's been 25 years since that trainwreck? I'm feeling old. I watched it live on PPV back then. While this is pretty disastrous, the story behind it is fascinating. Kim Justice did a fantastic and updated doc on this a while back, getting comments from some of the folks that put it together. Worth a watch, if you're curious.

[@Jessica_Roth]

Sad to see that Neidhart was reduced to this; I thought he was still with WCW in 1999, but I guess his contract must have ended. Ironic that Yokozuna and Jake were teamed, given that Rodney had earned my undying love by "killing" off the "Damien the Snake" gimmick, which was at least 5 years past its time when WWE finally dropped it. (Yoko sat on the bag and squashed Damien, that was the story.)

[@johnalbent]

It was 6 years since you did this?! Or am I being literal? I watched your ups and Downs of Extreme Rules 2019 a few weeks ago. Time flies aand things change. Summerslam 1992 please

[@sharon012490]

I miss retro ups and downs so much!!! They need to come back! You get a golden up simon for rewatching it.

[@timkelly6065]

Simon should make this an annual thing. Redo retro ups and downs every year on this show

[@caseym9656]

I missed Retro Ups and Downs!

[@thepunkrocker4093]

I still don't know why there hasn't been an episode of Dark side of the ring about that show yet. It's the perfect show for that

[@totz_the_plaid9625]

"U.S.A!" chants in a match where an Iranian and a (fake) Russian fight two New Zealanders... the audience get a Down from me.

[@JL-sm6cg]

Hey, we used to chant "USA, USA" when a Puerto Rican and a Mexican (Pedro Morales and Tito Santana) would fight them. lol

[@dylanogg347]

Legend has it that this show was cooked up by the Devil.

[@chriswho4232]

I'm so happy to see this series make a return

[@KHWrld999]

Omg are they trying retro ups and downs again, I know Simon is already really busy and I feel kinda selfish asking for more Simon videos and content but please bring back all the cancelled ups and downs

[@patrickmcandrew6631]

The Power of Positivity has never been more direly tested than reviewing THIS show!

[@timbloch]

Thank you Simon for your take on the horrible PPV. Had me laughing so hard. It made my day

[@ilovebbw2573]

Can we get retro ups and downs back I very much miss them

[@Dr_1212]

I believe in supporting all wrestling even if i.m no big fan of certain promotions but Heroes of Wrestling should never be supported 😆🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[@GradeaFlicks]

If retro ups and down are back, please do summerslam 93 and Bret harts king of the ring victory

[@nlangley92]

Yessss! More ups and downs! Love the idea, please don't ever stop Simon

[@arnaldomedina3961]

Can we do WWF Fully Loaded 1999

[@Chalk0073]

I love how Flash Funk just had a spare WCW title belt with him.

[@jehseerahme8152]

i need more retro ups and downs, please !!!!

[@dylanogg347]

Lane and Blanchard deserve some kudos for putting on the only competent match on the card.

[@CRIZZEX]

So I have two recommendations so far. . .there's the Royal Rumble 2003. . .and Summerslam 2004. . .but then again, since we just had bad blood. . . Let's start with the 2003 version of that. . . Goldberg vs Jericho amd Nash vs HHH Hell in a Cell. Thank You Simon. . .

[@danw4490]

The first time Simon reacted, it was epic. I have higher expectations for this one and I know Simon won't let me down.

[@matthewjohnson1290]

I laughed out loud for real when I saw the title of this video. Can't wait to watch😅

[@derekfuiten204]

Did you say "Captain Lou Albino"? 😂

[@danielholmes-nj5nq]

Oooh is Retro Ups And Downs back again?!

[@evanmino]

I wish there was a way to go back in time and tell everyone who watched that show that Jake Roberts would be alive (and relatively well!) 25 years later. I doubt a single person there would have believe it.

[@awelcruiz]

25 years later, and Jake is somehow the only one from the main event who's still alive. And that's why DDP is the REAL Hero of Wrestling!

[@brandonnewby178]

1:10: Man. That's kinda like being half-blind and finally going to a pay-per-view---premium live event (a Royal Rumble, no less) having no idea you won't at least be able to hear the commentators...

[@judithchaney3744]

Thank you Simon

[@mirroboylx]

Wait Simon you already done this one!

[@arnaldomedina3961]

Today's the 25th anniversary of this event. So that's why

[@mirroboylx]

Poor Simon

[@AmpsWorld420]

I watched this on PPV back in 99 with my good friend. Its so bad thatvive had to watch it a few times sinthen to remind myself how bad wrestling can really get. Its entertaining in the way you can't take your 16:19 eyes off of a car wreck. You just have to look at it.

[@Sg81win]

Any original ECW PPV. Pure gold

[@josephr5556]

I like all the retro ups and downs.....Simon is extra entertaining for terrible shows though😂

[@MrParker-ux2mh]

Sounds like they patterned the booking for this from Russo & WCW 2000

[@jeffreydodson2653]

I think we need one of those men in black flash things

[@neilcoatham]

Let's have a series of wcw 2000 ppvs retros ups and downs

[@JL-sm6cg]

Why don't you do the 2011 Halloween edition of Monday Night Raw with the Muppets?

[@frankhoward6645]

If retro ups and downs return awesome well done Simon my suggestion for next time is Halloween Havoc 98

[@CarlosAguilar-zq7cx]

Simon miller losing his mind for our entertainment. A true hero

[@troybannish2656]

Why? Why would anybody go to an old school Wrestling event without knowing what's going on? Rather than Why? Let's go with HOW! How do ya not know George "The Animal" Steele!?!

[@edvinrosenqvist524]

Is Retro ups&downs back? In that case, please do Survivor Series 1987. The first Survivor Series.

[@WolfpackEntertainmentYT]

"Lou Albino" Lol.

[@petefrenzel7296]

NO ONE should be FORCED to watch this twice, my definition of "torture" for sure! I only watched it once, just to say that I watched it & I am NOT proud of that. Be Warned: Only watch it if you want to see what all the "hype" is about & they are understating the god-awfulness of this farce. I love 2ColdScorpio, he is one of my all time favorite Wrestlers. But he shows up with a Championship Belt that as far as anyone can tell DOES NOT EXIST, he must have gone to Walmart to buy a belt since it means NOTHING! I am so glad that Jake got his life back together since he was an awful, awful mess back then.

[@Jamal-bl7yh]

My Least Favorite Wrestling Show Was Wrestling Society X (2007) "It's The Biggest Piece Of Dog Shit" : Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson

[@skeltonpitts7121]

And there was actually some talent there too! MTV couldn't figure out what they wanted and kept picking with it, it didn't work well with the demo so... same thing happened in Lucha Underground

[@RGF91]

SIMON, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!!!!

[@giantnerd14]

Why did you pull down the original video?

[@foeud]

please do wrestlemania 3--hogan vs andre, savage vs steamboat

[@redeye7pg]

We need more retro

[@mr.flaxonwaxon9283]

Ohhh man it's back!!

[@brandonnewby178]

Yay! Let's watch a Retro. 😁😁

[@ronwashington7589]

Most mismanaged wrestling show EVER!

[@RjD.Panda67]

You still do retro ups and downs?

[@hedonisticvanity]

How you just gonna drop a retro ups and downs and not announce it on other videos!

[@rondoughhowell6442]

Well this came from people trying to eat off of the success of the Monday Night Wars with washed up wrestlers

[@marvelsProtege]

Who was meant to be gay back then, the Cowboy or the Superfly?

[@tflwulf69]

Can't wait for next years review....

[@Thato-y1t]

Are you bringing it back?

[@j.b.gruberiiiesq6582]

You never did this one? I swear you did.

[@shaqitchyogucci822]

next retro should be 2016 summer slam

[@DJones1812]

So great, this is as good as the show was bad.

[@goddess_of_crows]

[@Doc_Rob38]

[@Steven-og5qx]

[@Swish0111]

[@gregmartin114]

Lou Albino

[@superhakker3198]

Wow, you finally remembered that you do Retro episodes.. It's too bad it's just a repeat..

[@danielholmes-nj5nq]

It's not a repeat, it's a brand new video, it's just a re-review.

[@foeud]

why not retro ups and downs an event you havent already done--this waste of time? would rather have a retro ups and downs for wrestlemania 3 for example--why havent done that one is a mystery

[@OmarAli-gp3yl]

Do summerslam 1992 next Don't know how you haven't reviewed it already !!

[@ChristopherJohn4389]

Gotdamn how many channels are gonna cover this show? Oh, a million? And some of them twice? To get views? Gotcha
