WWE King of the Ring Quiz! 

Damien's Dinner Time is like "Chicago Made" Punk, something made up a long time after the acronym was used.

Couple things 1. DDT is NOT named after Damian, thats an internet rumor that spread around. Its named after the pesticide. 2. Jerry Lawler got his "King" moniker in Memphis. Never won King Of The Ring 3. Kurt Angle won the 2000 King Of The Ring 4. Edge won the 2001 King Of The Ring 5. KOTR was a yearly thing from its creation in 1985 until 2002 (After that it was basically whenever they felt like it)

No biggie about KotR 96, it was only the birth of one of the biggest draws and one of the biggest catchphrases in wrestling history

Jerry Lawler was the King of Memphis, nothing to do with KotR tournament. Also, the DDT was NOT named after Damien, it was named after a highly dangerous chemical pesticide that was being banned when Jake was trying to think of a name and he saw an article in the paper about DDT.

…. Some of y’all really tricked John into believing DDT stands for “Damien’s Dinner Time?”😂😂😂 y’all. It stands for Dichloro-Diphenyl-Trichloroethane. It’s a pesticide. A poison.

Austin 3:16 came from King of the Ring 96. Jake Roberts was doing a born again redemption gimmick, getting super into Christianity and turning from his old lifestyle. So Jake quoted the Bible a bunch during that run (which didn't really go much further than KotR 96), which is why Stone Cold said, "You sit there, and you thump your Bible, and you say your prayers, and it didn't get you anywhere. Talk about your Psalms, talk about John 3:16, AUSTIN 3:16 SAYS I JUST WHIPPED YOUR ASS!"

It's not Damien's Dinner Time, DDT is a highly dangerous pesticide that was banned and Jake saw an article in the newspaper about it when he was thinking what to name his finisher and he thought "That's badass."

Damien's dinner type is an obvious joke and it's funny to me that John fell for that

4:45 Dante stopping himself from saying “I’m killing myself” 😭😭😭

Drink a shot everytime Sophie says "alrighty" haha

John did all that laughing the first 5 questions just to lose 😂

To answer an earlier question: yeah Kurt Angle has won a KotR tournament. It was in 2000

Brock vs Test in the semi-finals of the 2002 KOTR is such an underrated banger that no-one really talks about. Worth going back to watch. Just two big monsters beating the crap out of each other.

Actually as a kid I heard it was Damien Death Trap. Which I've always believed, but now I question it.

Jakes DDT is not what they told you its named after the chemical DDT and the way he got the move is because he was wrestling in I can't remember the territory and he had his head locked in the DDT position and he slipped and he landed the DDT

Bret and Owen were feuding during 1993 and 1994, with the feud ending at their Summerslam 94 cage match. Bret won KoR in 91 and 93, with Owen winning in 94 and declaring himself the "King of Harts".

Jake Roberts being Austin's opponent in the KOTR final was the reason we got the famous Austin 3:16 line. Austin went to hospital after his prelim match, when he got back to the arena (just before the final match) he asked who he was facing and what they had said. Jake was reading bible verses in his promos at the time and had quoted John 3:16

The origin of Jerry Lawler being “The King” was because a fan in the 70s told him he was “The King of Memphis” after a show. He then planned on doing the king gimmick for only a few weeks at the suggestion of a friend, however when his friend passed, he decided to keep the gimmick as a tribute.

Whenever John says “What the hell” in that voice it cracks me up 😂😂

"King of the Quiz" Crown needs to happen

Jerry Lawler has always been known as The King. Nothing to do with King Of The Ring.

This is a Dante type of quiz. John doesn't have a chance!

Hey, just a thought. You could have a screen set up so the guys can see the questions/answers. It might streamline things for recording episodes. Think about it!

Lawler got the title king back in 1974 when he beat Jackie Fargo for the NWA Southern Heavyweight Championship. He won the belt and the title King of Wrestling

Jake was on a bible kick. When Austin won that’s why he said arguably the biggest line in wrestling history “you thump your bible, talk about your psalms 3:16, Austin 3:16 says I just whooped your ass”. Y’all miss some of the biggest moments consistently lol

Edge did win KOTR....Christian got jealous and cracked the huge trophy over Edge's head... that began their feud and launched their solo careers.

Edge won the 2001 KOTR, but sadly no King Edge gimmick; just a Christian heel turn. Finn Balor had a "tournament gimmick" (a gimmick used only during wrestling tournaments) where "the prince wants to be the king" since he used to be known as Prince Devitt.

slow start for the Champ but he could pull it back in the end. all hail King Dante

The last question was a bit of a trick. Both guys were 24 years old when they won, but Brock was 24yrs and 11mths, while Mabel was 24yrs and 4mths. So I guess technically speaking, Mabel was the younger man, but in terms of talking about age, you would usually say they were the same.

2002 king of the ring was one of my all time favorite ppvs. It was just stacked with amazing matches.

0pts #AndStill SCW Champion, Dante! All Hail King Dante!

DDT isn’t named after the snake

yes and no the DDT was actually a move name given to the finisher after jake the snake saw a news article mentioning a pesticide called the DDT being banned and thus the ddt was born but the damien's dinner time lines up with what happens post match in which damien gets to be free for his "dinner time"

6:57 looks like it with that hair Dante 😂

When KOTR was run on a yearly basis between the 90s and early 2000s, it was the way the company would signal to the fans which Mid-card wrestler they would be giving a huge singles push to. You can see from the past winners - Bret, HHH, Edge, Kurt, Brock etc. and even with the less successful ones like Mabel, Billy Gunn

I was certain that Austin's KotR win was 1996 because of a few factors. People usually think his Austin 3:16 promo immediately made him a top name. It didn't. But at WM13 his match with Bret Hart was one of those factors that made Steve Austin. That was 1997 meaning the KotR tournament had to be a long while before that Mania match. Then obviously he won the title from Michaels at WM14

Love all the content

5:50 that's where Austin 3:16 was born. Jake had found God (I guess between addictions) and Austin was cutting a promo based on that.

Can you imagine hearing "My name Is Dante, my name is John..."? I would be confused AF 😁 I am always saying this w them 😁

Apart from the two '96 questions this was REALLY hard!

you guys should do a behind the scenes from the start to when it comes out on RU-vid

Really surprised no Corbin or Shinsuke mention, we all just swept those under the rug 😂

Also, fun fact: Triple H was supposed to win the King of the Ring in '96 until the Curtain Call incident and Austin took his place. HHH won it the next year. I think it worked out all in all.

2002 was also the last time the winner got an automatic title shot. Triple H just revived that stipulation for this year; BOTH the king and queen will get title matches at SummerSlam.

That 1996 Steve Austin answer is the first time in scw history that John got a wrestling history question right that Dante got wrong 😂

Nice. I got 7 going to the wager round. I didn't get the last one right though. I thought it was Brock too.

Don't keep my score but surprisingly got quite a few right. Got the wager right just because something just told me that I had heard that fact before.

Finally a quiz I am KILLING YALL!! 😂😂😂😂 cuz it’s my era and not yours!!!

now i want a SCW Crown beanie.

Funny that they both said they thought the tournament started in 92 and they both answered 92 for when they did the first KOTR PPV and that was one of the years they didn’t do the tournament. How could you not know Austin won KOTR in 96? The KOTR tournament in 2021 took place in October leading up to and ending at Crown Jewel, which was after the ThunderDome era.

13p (got the wager right but I didn't wager anything) the only question I Missed was the Xavier woods question. Almost a sweep city. But I'm real proud of myself. Ngl this was pretty easy.

Man I LOVE King of the Ring! Sure they weren't all bangers but a lot of the PPVs ruled (hell in a cell 98, shane vs kurt 01 anyone?). I was cruising until the wager, so I missed sweep city, but finished with 14, so I'm happy 😊

Love the thumbnail! Hail King Dante!

Fun fact, when Jakes Snake Damien passed away, Alice Cooper gave him the snake he would perform on stage with.

Y'all need to go into the back catalogue of peacock every now and then gahhhhhdamn

Nice final wager question

Lordy. That was very history like video

Dante with another fire comeback 🔥

Good luck everyone and good luck to John and dante

DDT was named after the chemical used in pesticides, Jake read an article about it in a Newspaper while at breakfast in a Tampa diner and thats where he got the name

what a comeback by Dante

wwe king and queen of the ring is this saturday

Something about that wager question is bothering me; cause I think Brock is the youngest. He was 23 when he won KOTR, that was in June, and his birthday is in July. Mabel was already 24 when he won, his birthday was in February

love it

Man, Mabel was just 5 months younger than Brock when he won. I was pretty confident, but Brock was almost 25 at the time. Mabel wouldn't turn 25 until February (born on Valentine's Day, fun fact).

I'm sure DDT stud for Damiens death touch

lmao. DDT is named after an insecticide. dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane.

What was the choir song that was at the end of the vid (15:33)

I was pulling into Sweep City until my car crashed into Mabel 😭😭😭

YOOO I got a sweep!

The first 6 King of the Ring tournaments were never acknowledged on television, they were just a special house show held annually, first in Foxborough, MA and later in Providence, RI. Harley Race won the second KotR so that they could properly acknowledge his legendary status without having to admit there were other wrestling companies in the world. After Harley, the king character portrayed on TV was unrelated to the KotR tournament. Haku took over the crown when Harley had to have surgery, then Hacksaw Jim Duggan won it from Haku, before losing it to Randy Savage. Macho Man did actually win the KotR tournament, but that was 2 years before he started calling himself the Macho King. A month after Savage took on the king moniker, Tito Santana won the annual tournament, but that was never acknowledged on TV.

nice tribute to Eddie, John

Edge won KotR in 2001

If you are gonna do a king of the ring quiz i don't think you can expect an easier question than when did austin win.

Dante at 12:06 just going full Wario

Mabel was a big heavy guy

7:52 yeah, edge did win king of the ring in 2001.

This was tough. So tough I could only answer 7 answers correctly

Edge did win king of the ring against kurt angle it was when kurt was going for king of the ring back to back victories

So Sheamus talks about winning the IC title because it’s the only thing he’s never won because he’s won every other title and then also the Rumble, KotR, and MITB. Edge is the only person to have won everything.

Yeah dates are Dante’s thing. He’s got this. I’m going for the underdog. TeamJohn

Dante, what’s the go-to Dunkin order?

Lesnar was 24 when he won the KOTR but Mable won it when he was younger 24.

7:57 there was no king of the ring tournament in 2003.

Jerry Lawler never won a king of the ring. He was wrestling in Memphis back in the 80s. I think his feud with Bret Hart in 93 was built off of him being mad over Bret being called king however.

the king of the ring final this saturday is gunther vs tama or randy

If I remember correctly Mabel was due for a massive push after his KOTR victory but got shoved down the card for being an unsafe worker

Had time to kill. Played along. Came away with 16 points. 8 on questions, 8 more on the wager. Bow before me, mortals. Or pity me. Whichever. Peasants.

Really how could you not recall it was Jake...that is the reason we have AUSTIN 3:16

Dante boi u were slipping with those first 4 questions...

Jake’s DDT was named after a deadly chemical - Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane, it came way before Damien.

sophie "alrighty" pratt

King of the beanie

12:55 Pinn Balor

I Guess mable for the wager and I was right

Brock was also 24 when he won KOTR guessing Mabel was months younger

Ggs boys

The fact that you didn't know the Austin 3:16 promo was directed at Jake Robert's is sad

Surprise the wager wasn't a Queen of the Ring question

Dante……..that what year did Stone Cold win the KOTR question was a layup smh lol
