WWE 2K15 video dropping next few days, WWE Battlegrounds launch stream Friday at midnight. Nonstop quality content coming. Lets go! No more fun and games!
Ah yes the middle to late 2000s. Smackdown vs Raw 2006 and 2007, MW2, Jackass Number Two, Superbad, Stepbrothers. Lil Wayne and Wacka Flacka Flame. PSP and PS3 days. Good times.
Armageddon 08 holds a special place in my heart simply because of Jeff Hardy’s WWE Title victory. I legit was the biggest Jeff Hardy fan during that time. I was so happy when he finally won.
so in india in 2008 not many people used to have a PC which has a good internet. and many people use to go to the cyber cafe to access the internet and i was only 12 years.. and when i saw the result that jeff won the wwe champion.. i went out of the cyber cafe just to celebrate and screamed like an idiot
Same here. I remember watching SmackDown every week, watching all the PPVs up to Armageddon, watching Jeff constantly have the odds stacked against him, it was just an amazing moment when he won. Quite possibly the best underdog world championship win build in WWE history.
2005 will always be my favorite year of wrestling they have HBK versus Kurt Angle,Triple H vs Batista, undertaker versus Randy Orton and edge versus Matt hardy which kind of trash but look, John Cena versus I don’t know literally everyone inside the med card and I just love this year so much
2008 & 2009 were the last times we got some ppv names ( for the time) Backlash, No Mercy, Unforgiven, No Way Out, Armageddon, Vengence, Judgement Day! Truly an end of an era
2005-2008......where the YEARS, they bring me back to watch wrestling, I wasn't watching wrestling since Taker beat Hogan for the WWF tittle.....yeah that long, for me Wrestling was a childish thing and I missed the entire Monday Night wars, the rise of WCW and the birth the the Attitude Era, even I knew that Goldberg, Stone Cold and the Rock were killing it, I didnt watch any of it...................until 1 day, I stumble into a PPV, I dont remember the name, I just watch EDDIE GUERRERO vs REY MYSTERIO fighting for a kid.........I was ike, WTF? but I watch it, and I never saw a Rey Mysterio or Eddie Guerrero match ever in my life, and for 10 or 15 minutes, my jaw drop to the floor......I tune that week Smackdown and I watch Batista destroy some guy with a Batista Bomb......and UNDERTAKER was still in SD and he was the most badass man I have ever saw, putting down fools, then Eddie pass, and I couldnt stop watching and You Tube was a thing back then, that allow me to catch up, I start playing matches of the Attitude Era, the streak, Brock Lesnar, Orton and the rest was history. I watch every Wrestlemania , every Rumble (2007 man, my favorite RR of all time), every Cena vs Edge, oh man this period of time, sooo good, and I was a University freshman student, and still love every bit of this time, ruthless agression era is my favorite era of WWE.
You captured everything I wanted out of part two.2000-08 were my favorite years as a WWE fan a still loved it until 2016 but I appreciate you as a RU-vidr because your a true wrestling fan and you have your facts straight these two parts are a Dave Meltzer 5 star classic in my opinion
Same I grew up in the pg era and Punk was my GOAT as well but even tho we didn't grow up in the ruthless aggression era that doesn't mean we didn't have fun but yea the rise of Cm punk, the pipe bomb and the Cena vs punk feud will always hold a special place in my heart that was my childhood I actually started watching WWE in 2010 my first match I watched was streak vs career that made me a WWE fan
You made me feel old af lol. When I was a kid wwf was going through the new generation era and the attitude era. I was in my teens when the ruthless aggression era began and the wrestling was excellent
It was truly awesome. From 2002 until 2009 I was glued to the television twice a week every week. It was once in a lifetime and being there was even better.
2009 stands out to me because Rey and Jericho had a awesome series of matches that were like WCW level and that was the year where Punk became the Straight Edge Messiah that Seth Rollins's gimmick clearly rips off.
@@DougieYT And don't forget we had smackdown vs raw 2010 And NBA 2k9 and everybody hates chris was still coming on and we had gta 4 and ufc undespuited 2009 and I was 13
09 was the last good year for wwe imo. after that year most people became part timers such as hbk,taker,jericho, etc. Smackdown was always better than raw during that time its just that raw always had the star power.
End of absolute peak WWE like end of 2007 if you were born in 1998 or lucky enough to be born in middle or earlier 90s and remember all the Austin rock stuff and everything the tag teams making it legendary and everything your lucky !! but from that time to about end of 2007 man oh man.. You had to live through it to understand the greatness of it can not be explained not to say there weren't more great matches more great moments and even years but from 90s to 2007 was something DIFFERENTTTT
Backlash 2009 is one of my favourites of all time, I first got exposed to WWE through video games & DVD’s. I remember watching Backlash 2009, Extreme Rules 2009, Attitude Era Collection dvds, Royal Rumble 2010, Unforgiven 2006 & WrestleMania 27.
Armageddon 08 always holds a special place in my heart because I used to be and still am the biggest jeff hardy fan and I remember seeing that match and when jeff won i got so hyped!
I'm 28 now. So as someone who's peak years we're also 2005-2012 I really appreciate your content. Nostalgia for the older fans. And showing the new generation our era, like our parents showed us, their era. Keep up your work brother
I stopped watching wwe in 2010 cuz i started middle school and now im about to graduate university and getting back into it since my little brother loves it. This just brings back such good memories of being a kid 😢
This was era of great manias that was the time people world get hyped for mania and it always dilevered, Mania 21, 22, 23, 24 were all extra ordinary great and fresh matches bigger things happened on mania. After maina 25 i girls the quality decresed for WM standard and ita has never been the same
Wrestlemania 23 was so hype bro bow you gonna pick backlash over it.. undertaker vs batista is one of my fav matches of all time, no cap. The money in the bank was insane this year. John cena pulling up in the mustang and beating Shawn Michaels. Such an iconic PPV and the theme song slaps too!
backlash 09 was amazing u had edge vs cena in the last man standing match ending their rivalry and orton finally winning the title back with the punt on hhh edge promo alone was amazing, and edge vs hardy 2009 extreme rules was lit
Man this brought back memories going to watch all these ppvs back on the network . When its all put together like this makes u see how 2005-2009 were special times and we didn't even know it as it was happening
WrestleMania 22 was my first ever WrestleMania and as a 9 year old I was mind blown. Still get goosebumps thinking about it, still my favorite WrestleMania of all time. Unforgiven 2006 is my all time favorite WWE PPV, felt so good seeing Edge get sacrificed.
0:37 That superstar yearbook just brought back fond memories, remember having to come home early from school and having that to read at home, hard to replicate that feeling
I briefly watched WWE in 2009 and then just officially became a fan of wrestling in 2010 and the rest is history. oh and WrestleMania 26 is and always will be my favorite first wrestling pay-per view that I've watched during my preteen days.
2005 was the year I started watching I mean I kinda watched a little bit in August but I really started watching fully when Eddie Guerrero passed away and my first ppv was Armageddon 2005 because before hand I played the smackdown games and my favourite matches to play was the hell in a cell match and when I heard undertaker and randy orton we’re gonna fight inside hell in a cell I asked my mom to order it and she did and the ppv was ok but the hell in a cell match was pretty damn good then i saw every ppv (except ecw one night stand) onward in 2006 and a lot of them were and some of them were not (summerslam,cyber Sunday,survivor series and December to dismember). But 2007 is where things were turned upside down I mean this whole heartedly the only ppv’s I liked were New Years Revolution,royal rumble, wrestlemania, backlash and survivor series I’m sorry but 2007 was my least favourite wwe year I mean the year started off on shaky ground we had John cena vs Kevin Federline, triple h tearing his quad and 2 people dressed as Donald trump and Rosie O’Donnell WHAT THE FUCK?!?! 🤦♂️ then it just kept going downhill stars like edge,undertaker,Bobby Lashley,Shawn Michaels got injured hornswoggle was Vince McMahon’s illegitimate son great khali was the world heavyweight champion and my interest was hanging on by a real short thread the only thing keeping me interested was John cena as wwe champion then he got injured and I just threw my hands in the air and just quit watching from October to January around the royal rumble
I used to play with my WWE action figures while watching RAW and SmackDown. Happiest time of my life. Then of course I'd rewatch them the next day, and play with my action figures with them.
Summerslam ‘09 was an amazing PPV. Minus Cena and Orton’s overbooked fuckery, Mysterio and Ziggler’s IC title opener was a banger, DX vs Legacy was a straight up excellent tag team match and Punk and Hardy tore the f*cking house down in Hardy’s last PPV match for 8 years, not to mention Taker returned for the first time since mania to close the show.
Solid list!! I'd put armageddon 2008 on the same pedestal as No Way Out 2003, it was a one match show but seeing Jeff Hardy finally win the title is just as special as Eddie's moment. plus, the personal build for hardy was a really good long term storytelling!
Triple H was in a Survivor Series match where he didn't have a complete team (Matt Hardy was out with a busted appendix) and his two teammates, Kane and Jeff Hardy, had grudges against Triple H (after all, Kane was a victim of the whole Katie Vick fiasco and Jeff Hardy was a victim of HHH's beatdowns)
Man, around this time wrestling wasn't that amazing, but it still felt like they were trying. Matter of fact, without SD in 2009, I probably wouldn't become a wrestling fan!
