@kellyremple8982 Год назад

SO DISAPPOINTING! I was so excited to hear Conrad and Jim's perspective of the amazing Bret Hart performance of KOTR 93. There was about 3 minutes spent talking about the matches. No mention of the confrontation between Bret & Hulk. No mention of the 3 completely different matches Bret did. Little mention of the lame finish in the title match. They spent more time talking about sauces than wrestling. 😢😢😢

Great King of the Ring event … to me Bam Bam Bigelow was the best super heavy to ever do it and him and Bret put on the best kotr finals match in the tournament’s history…. It would be 7 years after this event that I’d watch my first wwf ppv live from my living room.

@jesseguzman7800 Год назад

Another great Grilling JR. Listening to these videos while working, always a great combo. Was hoping during the ppv a Sensational Sherri and Luna Vachon match or even a segment during the ppv considering how their rivalry was on fire on TV and was pretty much one of the first female rivalries in really quite sometime. (i know a planned ppv mix tag match was planned for Summerslam, but something here at the King of the Ring would have been great to see).

@chico1680 Год назад

Probably could have happened if not for the tournament nature of the show and I matches seemingly running long.

@jesseguzman7800 Год назад

@@chico1680 i think so too. i also thought why didn't Sherri come out and go after Luna during her run-in, but that may have taken away from the main event. i think maybe when the finals were revealed, Luna could have been interviewed backstage before the main event regarding Bam Bam Bigelow and Sherri could have attack her in the backstage area like how she was attacked backstage (and at ringside) at Wrestlemania.

The problem is that the majority do not talk about Hulk Hogan helping Vince McMahon when he testified in his favor in the Steroids case in court. Hogan saved Vince McMahon from prison and thus saved the future of the WWF and all wrestlers such as Bret Hart, Undertaker and Shawn Michaels. So Jim Ross should be grateful instead of his bad manners here

@JackQSmith Год назад

I always assumed the time limit draw between Lex and Tatanka was to give Bam Bam a bye into the final match, making Bret more of an underdog. Also, it kept both strong. After WM9, it seemed like Lex was being built for a feud with Bret and Tatanka was still undefeated at this point (at least on TV) after being in the WWF for over a year. Didn't get pinned until that fall against Ludvig Borga thanks to some interference. Didn't lose again (and the first time he lost clean) until next year's KOTR when Owen Hart beat him in the first round.

@gstcomputing65 Год назад

I wouldn't expect Conrad to know because he is a Meltzer mark. But JR should have a clue. Hogan worked many house shows in 93. He worked between Wrestlemania and even after King of the Ring. His last match was just before Summerslam on August 6th in a European tour. There are plenty of places you can go to find this information. Hogan deserves criticism for some of the things that he's done and said over the years, but not wrestling during this time is being intellectually dishonest.

@Aizenborgman Год назад

WrestleMania Nine had the highest earnings of 10, 11, 12 and 13. Also, King of the Ring 93 had higher sales than 94, 95, 96 and 97. Thanks to Hulk Hogan. Any major wrestling star deserves to be criticized. Bret Hart refused to lose to The Undertaker in Bahrain and to Shawn Michaels in Canada.He criticizes Hulk Hogan, but he does not criticize himself for his childish actions .

on all american wrestling and mania they would have a feature match during this time and Gorilla and the wizard did the commentary , maybe a month if that lasted, then was gorilla and jim ross ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qorIJmkv9Mg.html

@jmendoza2003 Год назад

He did commentary during All American Wrestling with Gorilla monsoon as the Wizard. He was never shown but he was still being heard. I think I did it for a couple of months until they dropped the Wizard thing. Then it was just Monsoon and JR after that.

@cpesq.5884 Год назад

I'm here to listen to what Ross says about the European tour after king of the ring 😅

@chico1680 Год назад

I think it was just a case of wanting to keep both Luger and Tatanka undefeated at the time so when either eventually does lose, it would hopefully mean something for whoever ended the streak.

@Gary-su8sb Год назад

Ahh yes! One of my favorites WrestleMania 9! I dont dislike it as much as others, yoko was a super heel and shit, I was 9yrs old, I wanted yoko to lose. Wish Bret would have won but, it's cool.

Hulk Hogan did the right thing for Business and lost to The Warrior before. As for Bret Hart, the agreement between Hogan and Vince was that Hogan would lose to Yokozuna, not Bret Hart. Bret Hart, in an interview in 2000, said that his problems with Hulk Hogan in 1993 were caused by Vince McMahon's lies, as he did between me and Shawn Michaels. But when Bret Hart's relationship with Vince improved in 2006, he returned to attack Hulk Hogan again. this is what happened . Jim Ross is ignorant of all this and yet acts as if he knows the whole story

@Realest636 Год назад

I always contend that Hulk Hogan and Bret Hart would not have clicked in 1993. It was a different time. “Small Technical good guys” did not just battle Hulk Hogan. From a visual standpoint it would look weird, as well. Their colors would also clash. Bret looked cool. Hogans style was becoming very dated as well. The technical guy back then, would have been the heel against Hogan. I never thought Shawn and Hogan meshed well either, but it was 2005 and all rules were out the window by that point.
