On This Day in WWE History

The way he calls Vince “DAD” gets me every time lol

There's a very daft YouTube channel that's slates Hunter for stealing Shane Douglas look with the cap he has on in the video above. Makes me laugh as to compare them is really stupid.

December 6th
1998 – WWF Capital Carnage, a UK-only PPV took place at the London Arena, London, England. The main event was a fatal-four-way match pitting ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin, The Undertaker, Kane and Mankind. Austin took the win with an assist from the special enforcer, actor and former footballer, Vinnie Jones.

2004 – Lita defeated Trish Stratus for the WWE Women’s Championship. It was the last time a women’s match took the main event spot on Monday Night Raw until 2016.

That pop for Austin will never get old, and that call from Michael Cole is great too.

Really was a privilege to live through that era of wrestling

I'm assuming it was just because of my age but it's funny to remember how damn obsessed I was with wrestling at that time period and then go back and watch stuff like that just to think, "eh it's ok i guess"

Not that it's bad but wrestling today is so much better than what it was back then but we still seem to think that was the good ol days

I'll second that. Great times.

During an interview with Chris Van Vliet, R-Truth revealed the impromptu segment from his WWE career that he’s most proud of…

“Probably Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar. The thing with that was, I come to Gorilla and Paul was there. He’s like, ‘Hey, we got a bet going on.’ I was like, ‘What bet?’ He’s like, ‘That you can make Brock laugh.’ I said, ‘What do you mean?’ He said, ‘We’re not going to tell him what you want to say, we don’t want to hear what you want to say. We just go.’ I said, ‘Man, I think we should let Brock know what we’re gonna do.’ He said, ‘Nope, we’re not gonna let Brock know it all.’ And that was the most impromptu thing that just came off like sliced bread. It was just great.”​

It’s crazy that wasn’t supposed to happen and they just happened to land at the same time.

And of course Vince tears both quads and is sitting in the ring yelling and everyone lol

After over an hour in the match Kofi lost. But KofiMania was born
