Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:02,035 --> 00:00:03,269
I'm back boys.
2
00:00:03,270 --> 00:00:05,037
In the world of WWE,
3
00:00:05,038 --> 00:00:06,172
it's never goodbye-
4
00:00:06,173 --> 00:00:08,307
There was never anyone any
better.
5
00:00:08,308 --> 00:00:09,275
-it's see you later.
6
00:00:09,276 --> 00:00:13,112
It's the Hall of Famer
herself.
7
00:00:13,113 --> 00:00:14,046
From the unimaginable-
8
00:00:14,047 --> 00:00:15,848
What?
9
00:00:15,849 --> 00:00:16,950
Holy [bleep].
10
00:00:17,584 --> 00:00:18,951
-to the unbelievable.
11
00:00:20,988 --> 00:00:21,587
No.
12
00:00:21,588 --> 00:00:22,656
No way.
13
00:00:23,390 --> 00:00:24,424
Edge is here.
14
00:00:25,659 --> 00:00:27,560
Today we look back at the
greatest professional wrestling
15
00:00:27,561 --> 00:00:29,796
shocking comebacks in history.
16
00:00:30,330 --> 00:00:33,433
This is WWE's Greatest Moments.
17
00:00:37,070 --> 00:00:38,838
Acknowledge me.
18
00:00:38,839 --> 00:00:40,072
My God.
19
00:00:40,073 --> 00:00:42,275
Stone Cold with beer bath.
20
00:00:42,276 --> 00:00:44,911
This is surreal.
21
00:00:44,912 --> 00:00:46,078
Look at this.
22
00:00:46,079 --> 00:00:47,514
He slammed him.
23
00:00:52,819 --> 00:00:56,456
Welcome, everyone to WWE's
Greatest Moments.
24
00:00:56,556 --> 00:00:58,659
I'm Michael Cole, and on this
edition,
25
00:00:58,759 --> 00:01:00,427
we're looking back at some
of the greatest comebacks
26
00:01:01,128 --> 00:01:02,362
that professional wrestling has
ever seen.
27
00:01:03,697 --> 00:01:04,630
He's back.
28
00:01:04,631 --> 00:01:06,033
He's back.
29
00:01:06,533 --> 00:01:06,566
Let's kick things off in an
electrifying manner.
30
00:01:07,601 --> 00:01:10,269
Let's kick things off in an
electrifying manner.
31
00:01:10,270 --> 00:01:13,072
The most electrifying man in
Sports Entertainment, The Rock,
32
00:01:13,073 --> 00:01:15,708
had left WWE in 2004
33
00:01:15,709 --> 00:01:18,111
to pursue a very successful
career in Hollywood.
34
00:01:19,146 --> 00:01:21,381
The Scorpion King number one
again this week.
35
00:01:21,481 --> 00:01:24,951
Indeed, the number one movie
in America.
36
00:01:24,952 --> 00:01:28,255
But when WrestleMania 27
needed a guest host,
37
00:01:28,355 --> 00:01:30,823
The Great One couldn't
pass up the opportunity
38
00:01:30,824 --> 00:01:33,160
to come back home.
39
00:01:36,897 --> 00:01:40,066
We've been expecting the host of
this year's WrestleMania to
40
00:01:40,067 --> 00:01:43,704
to arrive here on
Monday Night Raw.
41
00:01:43,804 --> 00:01:46,272
The rumors of who was
going to host WrestleMania
42
00:01:46,273 --> 00:01:48,442
were, you know, everywhere.
43
00:01:48,942 --> 00:01:50,043
We didn't want this getting out.
44
00:01:51,078 --> 00:01:53,446
Whoever they bring out, he
gonn to be that dude,
45
00:01:53,447 --> 00:01:54,948
and lo and behold.
46
00:02:00,821 --> 00:02:02,955
Oh my.
47
00:02:02,956 --> 00:02:04,391
The Rock is here.
48
00:02:05,826 --> 00:02:06,926
The goal to come back-
49
00:02:06,927 --> 00:02:09,996
The reason was simply the fans.
50
00:02:09,997 --> 00:02:14,101
And to watch them respond the
way they did.
51
00:02:14,201 --> 00:02:20,307
Finally, The Rock has come
back home.
52
00:02:22,209 --> 00:02:24,510
People were talking about and
making fun of John Cena.
53
00:02:24,511 --> 00:02:27,279
You come out here with your
bright ass purple shirt,
54
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:28,314
your bright green shirt,
55
00:02:28,315 --> 00:02:29,515
before that, your bright orange
shirt.
56
00:02:29,516 --> 00:02:31,218
You're running around here
looking like a big fat bowl
57
00:02:31,318 --> 00:02:32,552
of Fruity Pebbles.
58
00:02:34,287 --> 00:02:36,822
Rock called me a Fruity
Pebble.
59
00:02:36,823 --> 00:02:38,992
Got a [bleep] ceareal
sponsorship with that.
60
00:02:39,459 --> 00:02:40,894
That's excellent.
61
00:02:42,029 --> 00:02:44,431
He came back, and it was so
special.
62
00:02:46,466 --> 00:02:47,867
The connection with the
audience
63
00:02:47,868 --> 00:02:49,903
after seven years of
being away
64
00:02:50,003 --> 00:02:51,304
was very, very special.
65
00:02:54,341 --> 00:02:56,543
There's no question that one
of the biggest superstars
66
00:02:56,643 --> 00:02:59,278
of the modern era
is Becky Lynch.
67
00:02:59,279 --> 00:03:02,515
The Man is, quite simply, done
it all and conquered everything
68
00:03:02,516 --> 00:03:04,383
she sets out to accomplish.
69
00:03:04,384 --> 00:03:06,185
In May of 2020, Lynch announced
to the world
70
00:03:06,186 --> 00:03:07,586
that she was pregnant-
71
00:03:07,587 --> 00:03:09,656
will be stepping away from the
squared circle.
72
00:03:09,756 --> 00:03:11,858
You go and be a warrior
73
00:03:12,626 --> 00:03:14,361
'cause I'm going
to go be a mother.
74
00:03:15,595 --> 00:03:19,266
But just how long would it be
until we saw Becky Lynch again?
75
00:03:22,602 --> 00:03:24,270
There was a, I believe,
a medical issue
76
00:03:24,271 --> 00:03:26,972
that caused Bianca's
opponent to have to pull out
77
00:03:26,973 --> 00:03:28,441
of SummerSlam,
78
00:03:28,442 --> 00:03:31,311
and it was a huge moment and
extremely unexpected.
79
00:03:31,912 --> 00:03:34,981
Sasha Banks is unable to
compete this evening.
80
00:03:36,016 --> 00:03:38,752
Las Vegas is incredibly
disappointed.
81
00:03:41,121 --> 00:03:42,189
What?
82
00:03:46,059 --> 00:03:47,026
Yes.
83
00:03:47,027 --> 00:03:49,996
One of the biggest stars on the
planet.
84
00:03:53,033 --> 00:03:55,235
Becky was the one that I
always wanted to work with.
85
00:03:56,069 --> 00:03:57,070
What do you say
86
00:03:57,170 --> 00:04:01,674
The EST and The Man
blow the roof off this joint?
87
00:04:03,076 --> 00:04:05,311
As happy as they were to see
me,
88
00:04:05,312 --> 00:04:08,447
at the beginning of the match,
89
00:04:08,448 --> 00:04:10,749
26 seconds later, they were
gonna wish
90
00:04:10,750 --> 00:04:11,984
that I never returned.
91
00:04:14,387 --> 00:04:15,422
And Becky Lynch.
92
00:04:16,156 --> 00:04:18,624
Becky Lynch is taking care of
business
93
00:04:18,625 --> 00:04:21,094
with a Manhandle Slam
94
00:04:21,194 --> 00:04:22,061
cover on Belair.
95
00:04:22,062 --> 00:04:23,296
Lynch wins the title.
96
00:04:23,396 --> 00:04:24,664
Lynch wins the title.
97
00:04:25,298 --> 00:04:29,302
For Becky Lynch to go away and
have a baby
98
00:04:29,402 --> 00:04:31,871
and come back and it's like she
never missed a beat.
99
00:04:31,872 --> 00:04:33,439
That was so inspiring.
100
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:34,708
What the hell just happened.
101
00:04:35,308 --> 00:04:38,745
She showed that women do not
have to stay in a box.
102
00:04:38,845 --> 00:04:40,446
You can have it all.
103
00:04:40,447 --> 00:04:42,716
Baby, I'm back.
104
00:04:45,452 --> 00:04:49,055
At the 1994 Royal Rumble, we
saw the unthinkable.
105
00:04:49,156 --> 00:04:50,990
The Undertaker was locked inside
a casket
106
00:04:50,991 --> 00:04:53,993
by several WWE superstars.
107
00:04:53,994 --> 00:04:56,162
But a resurrection was upon us.
108
00:04:56,163 --> 00:05:02,903
I will not rest in peace.
109
00:05:03,003 --> 00:05:05,305
Hoping to pull the wool over
everyone's eyes.
110
00:05:05,405 --> 00:05:08,107
The Million Dollar Man,
Ted DiBiase
111
00:05:08,108 --> 00:05:10,710
brought the Dead
Man back to WWE.
112
00:05:11,444 --> 00:05:12,444
Or did he?
113
00:05:12,445 --> 00:05:14,947
Paul Bearer, he's
claiming that you
114
00:05:14,948 --> 00:05:17,483
don't have
the real Undertaker.
115
00:05:17,484 --> 00:05:18,517
Heading into SummerSlam,
116
00:05:18,518 --> 00:05:20,186
longtime manager Paul Bearer
117
00:05:20,187 --> 00:05:22,189
promised to deliver
the real deal.
118
00:05:22,956 --> 00:05:30,230
You're Undertaker against
my Undertaker at SummerSlam.
119
00:05:35,001 --> 00:05:36,869
Surely a one of a kind
matchup,
120
00:05:36,870 --> 00:05:38,004
ladies and gentlemen,
121
00:05:38,638 --> 00:05:41,707
as Ted DiBiase's
Undertaker
122
00:05:41,708 --> 00:05:43,610
makes his way to the
squared circle.
123
00:05:44,311 --> 00:05:47,446
Ted DiBiase claimed that he
had acquired
124
00:05:47,447 --> 00:05:49,983
the services of The Undertaker.
125
00:05:50,083 --> 00:05:53,385
But the rest of us are waiting
for the true Undertaker.
126
00:05:53,386 --> 00:05:54,988
Where's The Undertaker
McMahon?
127
00:05:55,455 --> 00:05:57,057
I just remember it being the
spectacle,
128
00:05:57,157 --> 00:05:58,858
the production, and everything
was done so big.
129
00:05:58,959 --> 00:06:02,161
And I remember Paul Bearer with
the urn and the giant light.
130
00:06:02,162 --> 00:06:03,829
The spirit of the Undertaker.
131
00:06:03,830 --> 00:06:04,630
Wait a minute.
132
00:06:06,166 --> 00:06:08,602
And oh my goodness.
133
00:06:12,872 --> 00:06:14,674
Now, that's, The Undertaker.
134
00:06:15,275 --> 00:06:17,076
Man, when he came out in that
purple and-and
135
00:06:17,077 --> 00:06:19,311
stood up to The Underfaker,
136
00:06:19,312 --> 00:06:20,480
I thought it was awesome.
137
00:06:20,914 --> 00:06:23,183
Ted DiBiase's bogus-
138
00:06:23,283 --> 00:06:27,220
grey glove Taker versus
the original Undertaker
139
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:28,320
in the new purple-
140
00:06:28,321 --> 00:06:30,422
The Undertaker.
141
00:06:30,423 --> 00:06:32,759
Oh yeah,
the suplex.
142
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:35,295
Oh, yes.
143
00:06:35,395 --> 00:06:37,030
That could do it right there.
144
00:06:37,731 --> 00:06:39,231
Bogus Undertaker gets exposed
145
00:06:39,232 --> 00:06:40,366
in a matter of minutes.
146
00:06:40,367 --> 00:06:41,267
It was exciting.
147
00:06:41,268 --> 00:06:42,067
And it was uh-
148
00:06:42,068 --> 00:06:44,104
It was great to be back.
149
00:06:48,074 --> 00:06:49,909
To be a WWE superstar,
150
00:06:49,910 --> 00:06:52,278
one must possess a certain
grit to be the very best.
151
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,681
On October 2007 John Cena
suffered a completely torn
152
00:06:55,682 --> 00:06:56,849
pectoral muscle.
153
00:06:56,850 --> 00:06:58,183
I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm fine.
154
00:06:58,184 --> 00:06:59,219
Here we go.
155
00:07:00,353 --> 00:07:01,821
The prognosis was that he
would miss action
156
00:07:01,922 --> 00:07:03,923
for at least six months.
157
00:07:03,924 --> 00:07:06,793
And as they say, you can't keep
a good man down.
158
00:07:07,827 --> 00:07:10,897
And at the 2008 Royal Rumble,
the WWE universe
159
00:07:10,997 --> 00:07:13,599
counted down to our 30th entry.
160
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,469
It's a moment that still has
Madison Square Garden buzzing.
161
00:07:22,142 --> 00:07:23,944
Who's number 30?
162
00:07:25,278 --> 00:07:26,045
What?
163
00:07:26,046 --> 00:07:27,080
Wait a minute.
164
00:07:27,714 --> 00:07:28,681
What the hell?
165
00:07:28,682 --> 00:07:30,150
What is this?
166
00:07:31,051 --> 00:07:32,285
It's John Cena.
167
00:07:34,187 --> 00:07:35,988
He was standing like this.
168
00:07:35,989 --> 00:07:37,657
And he looked up and he
smiled.
169
00:07:37,757 --> 00:07:40,026
I've never heard anything that
was louder.
170
00:07:41,561 --> 00:07:45,565
The roof is exploding off of
Madison Square Garden.
171
00:07:46,199 --> 00:07:48,233
He was supposed to be out for
a year,
172
00:07:48,234 --> 00:07:49,970
and he's back in three months.
173
00:07:51,104 --> 00:07:53,172
I made extreme gains very
fast,
174
00:07:53,173 --> 00:07:54,606
and called everybody up and was
like,
175
00:07:54,607 --> 00:07:56,276
"Hey, I think I'm ready to go."
176
00:07:56,943 --> 00:07:58,611
There is no tough Guy award.
177
00:07:58,978 --> 00:08:01,414
It's down to Cena and
The Game.
178
00:08:02,182 --> 00:08:04,417
The whole time we were in the
ring, I just had goosebumps.
179
00:08:04,517 --> 00:08:06,085
So bad ass.
180
00:08:06,086 --> 00:08:08,822
Tons of strength and Cena does
it.
181
00:08:09,255 --> 00:08:10,657
Whoa ho.
182
00:08:11,491 --> 00:08:16,161
WWE superstars have an amazing
tendency to prove the experts
183
00:08:16,162 --> 00:08:20,967
wrong by coming back much sooner
than anyone else would.
184
00:08:22,235 --> 00:08:27,774
A superhuman display of
physical strength by John Cena.
185
00:08:31,378 --> 00:08:33,346
When you think of the greatest
tag teams of all time,
186
00:08:33,446 --> 00:08:36,182
you have to put the Hardy Boyz
right at the top of that list.
187
00:08:36,816 --> 00:08:39,018
Matt and Jeff literally changed
the game
188
00:08:39,119 --> 00:08:42,422
and became a beloved fixture of
WWE for decades.
189
00:08:43,423 --> 00:08:45,824
But in 2010, the Hardy Brothers
left WWE
190
00:08:45,825 --> 00:08:47,794
and pursued other career
opportunities.
191
00:08:48,228 --> 00:08:51,663
This is not goodbye forever.
192
00:08:51,664 --> 00:08:54,200
This is only goodbye for now.
193
00:08:54,834 --> 00:08:58,438
But would we ever see The
Hardys in WWE again?
194
00:09:00,707 --> 00:09:03,308
Welcome to WrestleMania.
195
00:09:03,309 --> 00:09:05,844
The title is hanging high
above the ring.
196
00:09:05,845 --> 00:09:09,315
In this Raw Tag Team
Championship ladder match.
197
00:09:10,984 --> 00:09:14,720
Ladies and gentlemen, this
ladder match
198
00:09:14,721 --> 00:09:20,726
has now become
a fatal four way.
199
00:09:20,727 --> 00:09:23,162
It's very rare that you have a
legitimate surprise
200
00:09:23,163 --> 00:09:25,364
where people don't know this is
going to be happening.
201
00:09:25,365 --> 00:09:27,566
We made people think that we
were coming out
202
00:09:27,567 --> 00:09:30,269
in order to be in this
three way match,
203
00:09:30,270 --> 00:09:31,770
but then all of a sudden.
204
00:09:33,673 --> 00:09:34,273
What?
205
00:09:34,274 --> 00:09:35,842
Oh, my.
206
00:09:37,477 --> 00:09:38,844
Matt and Jeff.
207
00:09:38,845 --> 00:09:40,680
The Hardy Boyz are here.
208
00:09:41,314 --> 00:09:42,882
You got to be kidding me.
209
00:09:43,316 --> 00:09:45,150
When you hear that reaction,
you don't just hear it,
210
00:09:45,151 --> 00:09:46,385
you feel it.
211
00:09:46,386 --> 00:09:48,353
It's just like exactly where
we were supposed to be
212
00:09:48,354 --> 00:09:49,389
in that moment.
213
00:09:50,657 --> 00:09:53,560
The Hardys have completely
turned this match on its head.
214
00:09:54,761 --> 00:09:55,861
Twist of fate.
215
00:09:55,862 --> 00:09:57,564
From the top of the ladder.
216
00:09:58,865 --> 00:10:01,767
Jeff Hardy, the thrill seeker.
217
00:10:01,768 --> 00:10:03,970
Swanton Bomb.
218
00:10:04,904 --> 00:10:06,438
And now Matt Hardy
219
00:10:06,439 --> 00:10:07,841
at the top of the ladder.
220
00:10:08,708 --> 00:10:12,444
The Hardy Boyz are seven time
champions.
221
00:10:12,445 --> 00:10:15,280
It was at Charlotte whenever I
pull down that first title,
222
00:10:15,281 --> 00:10:16,783
you just see everybody standing
up in the back.
223
00:10:16,883 --> 00:10:19,284
and they're so
genuinely excited.
224
00:10:19,285 --> 00:10:21,821
One of the greatest
WrestleMania moments ever.
225
00:10:22,222 --> 00:10:25,591
Everybody was just so cool and
happy that we were there.
226
00:10:25,592 --> 00:10:27,392
When it comes to moments,
that's up there, man.
227
00:10:27,393 --> 00:10:28,795
It might be number one in my
opinion.
228
00:10:29,262 --> 00:10:31,396
But to walk back out there
into our home where,
229
00:10:31,397 --> 00:10:33,432
Matt and Jeff Hardy was truly
born.
230
00:10:33,433 --> 00:10:34,967
And to get that kind of
reception,
231
00:10:34,968 --> 00:10:36,035
it's really amazing.
232
00:10:36,536 --> 00:10:38,304
Welcome home
233
00:10:38,404 --> 00:10:39,906
Matt and Jeff.
234
00:10:44,444 --> 00:10:46,311
The 1980s saw a boom period
for professional wrestling
235
00:10:46,312 --> 00:10:47,312
across the board,
236
00:10:47,313 --> 00:10:52,018
including WWE's biggest rival
promotion WCW.
237
00:10:52,118 --> 00:10:55,822
One of WCW top stars of the day
was the total package,
238
00:10:55,922 --> 00:10:57,022
Lex Luger.
239
00:10:57,023 --> 00:11:00,626
But in 1993, Luger left and
joined WWE,
240
00:11:00,627 --> 00:11:04,430
and it's successful prime time
cable show Monday Night Raw.
241
00:11:04,998 --> 00:11:09,034
Not to be outdone, WCW began its
very own prime time cable show
242
00:11:09,035 --> 00:11:11,970
to go head to head with WWE on
Monday nights.
243
00:11:11,971 --> 00:11:14,973
WCW Monday Nitro.
244
00:11:14,974 --> 00:11:17,876
In the very first episode, one
of the most shocking comebacks
245
00:11:17,877 --> 00:11:23,049
ever took place in a moment that
made WCW a must see television.
246
00:11:25,418 --> 00:11:26,785
The Mall of
America
247
00:11:26,786 --> 00:11:28,887
the only building
big enough
248
00:11:28,888 --> 00:11:31,823
to hold the
debut edition.
249
00:11:31,824 --> 00:11:33,660
The element
of surprise.
250
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,062
The spontaneity of the show.
251
00:11:36,162 --> 00:11:37,997
That's what Nitro represented.
252
00:11:38,731 --> 00:11:41,600
They flew me in that same day
and did hide me at a hotel,
253
00:11:41,601 --> 00:11:43,035
and they waited till like 30
minutes
254
00:11:43,036 --> 00:11:44,304
before the show
started.
255
00:11:44,404 --> 00:11:46,605
Brought me in with like, towels
around my head to a back door.
256
00:11:46,606 --> 00:11:50,677
And it was definitely a big, big
shocker for wrestling fans.
257
00:11:51,144 --> 00:11:54,147
Later on in this live debut
broadcast.
258
00:11:55,248 --> 00:11:58,984
Oh, what in the hell is he doing
here?
259
00:11:58,985 --> 00:11:59,952
Get the king off of-
260
00:11:59,953 --> 00:12:01,186
Who?
261
00:12:02,889 --> 00:12:03,522
Get him outta-
262
00:12:03,523 --> 00:12:04,223
Get the camera off of him.
263
00:12:04,224 --> 00:12:05,190
What is this?
264
00:12:05,191 --> 00:12:06,425
Very well kept secret.
265
00:12:06,426 --> 00:12:08,026
He had jumped his ship.
266
00:12:08,027 --> 00:12:09,395
People were freakin' out.
267
00:12:09,696 --> 00:12:10,862
He's cleaning house.
268
00:12:10,863 --> 00:12:12,231
Wait, Luger's in there.
269
00:12:12,232 --> 00:12:13,766
Lex Luger in the ring.
270
00:12:14,534 --> 00:12:16,034
Lex Luger-
271
00:12:16,035 --> 00:12:17,035
He's helping Hogan.
272
00:12:17,036 --> 00:12:17,869
-clearing the ring.
273
00:12:17,870 --> 00:12:19,004
He's helping Hogan.
274
00:12:19,005 --> 00:12:19,906
Luger.
275
00:12:20,006 --> 00:12:21,773
Whoa, wait a minute.
276
00:12:21,774 --> 00:12:25,510
It really set us up for great,
great success
277
00:12:25,511 --> 00:12:27,347
because there was
already controversy.
278
00:12:27,914 --> 00:12:30,950
This is the most amazing turn
of events I have ever seen.
279
00:12:32,719 --> 00:12:36,755
In 2016, personal differences
between Cody Rhodes and WWE
280
00:12:36,756 --> 00:12:40,359
led to Cody leaving the company
seemingly forever.
281
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:42,394
With Rhodes thriving in his
outside ventures,
282
00:12:42,395 --> 00:12:46,232
many fans thought they'd never
see him back in WWE again.
283
00:12:47,266 --> 00:12:48,368
Or would they?
284
00:12:51,270 --> 00:12:55,273
Seth Rollins has no clue
who his opponent
285
00:12:55,274 --> 00:12:56,409
will be here tonight.
286
00:12:56,943 --> 00:12:59,277
There are so many rumors
swirling
287
00:12:59,278 --> 00:13:01,247
about who my opponent
was going to be.
288
00:13:02,448 --> 00:13:04,217
Come on, let's go.
289
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,428
Cody.
290
00:13:16,429 --> 00:13:17,897
Oh my God.
291
00:13:22,235 --> 00:13:24,670
My eyes met a lot of people's
eyes
292
00:13:24,671 --> 00:13:27,774
and it was just a
beautiful experience.
293
00:13:28,308 --> 00:13:31,077
The prodigal son has returned.
294
00:13:32,712 --> 00:13:36,882
I was in some ways a fan like
everybody else, trying to-
295
00:13:36,883 --> 00:13:39,585
soak in the surreal nature of
the scene that we were seeing.
296
00:13:40,753 --> 00:13:42,321
Special thing to be a part of,
297
00:13:42,322 --> 00:13:44,790
and I was very happy to be
able to facilitate it
298
00:13:44,791 --> 00:13:46,225
in some way, shape, or form.
299
00:13:47,860 --> 00:13:48,960
I sort of like looking around,
300
00:13:48,961 --> 00:13:50,762
and everyone's face was just
like-
301
00:13:50,763 --> 00:13:51,831
Cross Rhodes.
302
00:13:56,135 --> 00:14:00,707
And Seth 'Freakin' Rollins'
Wrestlemania dreams
303
00:14:00,807 --> 00:14:03,309
became a nightmare.
304
00:14:04,510 --> 00:14:08,213
I had anticipated I would
never come back to WWE.
305
00:14:08,214 --> 00:14:09,482
It's still surreal to me.
306
00:14:10,316 --> 00:14:13,419
What a moment for Cody Rhodes.
307
00:14:17,056 --> 00:14:19,224
It's clobbering time.
308
00:14:19,225 --> 00:14:20,625
The best in the world,
CM Punk,
309
00:14:20,626 --> 00:14:22,928
is certainly no stranger
to controversy.
310
00:14:22,929 --> 00:14:23,662
Oops
311
00:14:23,663 --> 00:14:25,198
I'm breaking the fourth wall.
312
00:14:25,598 --> 00:14:27,632
The outspoken Chicago
superstar has made a legendary
313
00:14:27,633 --> 00:14:31,169
career by sticking to his guns
and speaking his mind.
314
00:14:31,170 --> 00:14:34,639
I am the best in the world.
315
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,843
So when CM punk left WWE in
2014,
316
00:14:37,844 --> 00:14:39,345
it was all but a certainty,
317
00:14:39,445 --> 00:14:41,047
we'd never, ever see him again.
318
00:14:41,914 --> 00:14:44,217
But with Survivor Series 2023
taking place
319
00:14:44,317 --> 00:14:46,151
in his hometown of Chicago,
320
00:14:46,152 --> 00:14:49,722
one must learn to never say
never.
321
00:14:56,796 --> 00:14:58,397
Me coming back in Chicago-
322
00:14:58,398 --> 00:14:59,899
It's a scary, daunting thought.
323
00:15:02,702 --> 00:15:04,103
Cross Rhodes
324
00:15:05,204 --> 00:15:06,439
Cover.
325
00:15:07,140 --> 00:15:08,373
Orton and company win.
326
00:15:10,910 --> 00:15:11,643
Do I still got it?
327
00:15:11,644 --> 00:15:12,911
Are they gonna remember me?
328
00:15:12,912 --> 00:15:13,946
Are they going to care?
329
00:15:19,185 --> 00:15:21,319
Whoa.
330
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:22,722
What?
331
00:15:31,764 --> 00:15:33,865
Him returning to WWE after all
these years,
332
00:15:33,866 --> 00:15:35,133
like while his music was
playing,
333
00:15:35,134 --> 00:15:37,170
it was like, "What's happening?"
334
00:15:38,871 --> 00:15:41,307
It has been quite the night
in Chicago.
335
00:15:42,742 --> 00:15:43,909
Electric-
336
00:15:43,910 --> 00:15:45,144
to say the least.
337
00:15:46,312 --> 00:15:47,680
Who's town is this?
338
00:15:49,515 --> 00:15:51,149
I don't really have the words
to explain
339
00:15:51,150 --> 00:15:54,186
how that moment makes me feel.
340
00:15:54,187 --> 00:15:56,488
There's a big part of me that's
still there.
341
00:15:56,489 --> 00:16:00,426
I left a huge part of me in
that moment.
342
00:16:12,805 --> 00:16:16,074
There's no denying the sheer
toughness of one Triple H.
343
00:16:16,075 --> 00:16:18,210
The Game has certainly made
a Hall of Fame career
344
00:16:18,211 --> 00:16:19,679
out of being the very best.
345
00:16:20,146 --> 00:16:23,215
So in 2001, The Cerebral
Assassin pushed through a career
346
00:16:23,216 --> 00:16:26,152
altering quadriceps tear and
finished the match.
347
00:16:27,954 --> 00:16:30,823
Triple H went through eight
months of intense rehabilitation
348
00:16:30,923 --> 00:16:32,391
to get back to the stage he
loved.
349
00:16:33,392 --> 00:16:36,962
It was indeed a beautiful day on
January 7th, 2002,
350
00:16:36,963 --> 00:16:41,032
when The Game made his
triumphant comeback to WWE
351
00:16:41,033 --> 00:16:45,471
to a thunderous ovation inside
Madison Square Garden.
352
00:17:12,698 --> 00:17:15,835
I remember just getting a
rush, like it was just so loud.
353
00:17:16,469 --> 00:17:17,969
It was overwhelming.
354
00:17:17,970 --> 00:17:19,971
You know, it really was
emotionally,
355
00:17:19,972 --> 00:17:21,040
for me, overwhelming.
356
00:17:23,476 --> 00:17:24,744
This is as loud
357
00:17:24,844 --> 00:17:26,611
as any sustained roar,
358
00:17:26,612 --> 00:17:29,882
I have ever heard in Madison
Square Garden.
359
00:17:31,951 --> 00:17:33,518
The crowd went nuts for him.
360
00:17:33,519 --> 00:17:35,954
They showed him that they love
him and they appreciate him.
361
00:17:35,955 --> 00:17:38,757
That crosses over into a very
real territory of how much
362
00:17:38,758 --> 00:17:40,792
the wrestling fans
appreciate you
363
00:17:40,793 --> 00:17:43,528
as a humannbeing and a
performer.
364
00:17:43,529 --> 00:17:46,832
I am The Game.
365
00:17:48,668 --> 00:17:52,004
It was a validation of
everything else I'd ever done.
366
00:17:52,872 --> 00:17:54,006
You just can't top it.
367
00:17:55,007 --> 00:17:58,810
And you can bet your ass
I'm back.
368
00:18:04,417 --> 00:18:07,352
It's now time for our number
one comeback of all time.
369
00:18:07,353 --> 00:18:09,688
And it's a moment longtime fans
like myself
370
00:18:09,689 --> 00:18:11,424
will never, ever forget.
371
00:18:12,158 --> 00:18:14,993
There is no bigger WWE superstar
in the mid 90s
372
00:18:14,994 --> 00:18:16,629
than Bret "The Hitman" Hart.
373
00:18:17,296 --> 00:18:19,864
The Excellence of Execution
proved on a nightly basis
374
00:18:19,865 --> 00:18:21,399
that he was certainly-
375
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,601
The best there is,
the best there was,
376
00:18:23,602 --> 00:18:25,438
and the best year ever will be.
377
00:18:26,138 --> 00:18:29,508
But controversy surrounded
Bret in his last WWE match
378
00:18:29,608 --> 00:18:31,711
at Survivor Series 1997.
379
00:18:33,346 --> 00:18:34,112
What?
380
00:18:34,113 --> 00:18:35,080
McMahon said ring the
bell.
381
00:18:36,248 --> 00:18:37,283
Wait a minute.
382
00:18:37,383 --> 00:18:40,986
Bret Hart had been screwed out
of the WWE Championship,
383
00:18:40,987 --> 00:18:42,788
and out of WWE.
384
00:18:43,389 --> 00:18:48,561
Bret Hart I ran his ass out of
the World Wrestling--.
385
00:18:49,061 --> 00:18:51,964
Many fans thought we'd never
see The Hitman back home.
386
00:18:54,867 --> 00:18:59,204
Making his first appearance
on Raw in over 12 years-
387
00:18:59,205 --> 00:19:05,044
Bret "The Hitman" Hart.
388
00:19:19,892 --> 00:19:22,662
The time that he had away from
WWE,
389
00:19:22,762 --> 00:19:24,697
I know it was really hard on
him.
390
00:19:24,797 --> 00:19:28,033
I got 12 years of things that
I wanted to get off my chest.
391
00:19:28,034 --> 00:19:30,001
The very first thing I want to
do
392
00:19:30,002 --> 00:19:31,870
Shawn Michaels to come out here.
393
00:19:34,607 --> 00:19:38,243
I didn't speak to Bret or see
him easily more than a decade.
394
00:19:38,244 --> 00:19:41,713
Carrying that burden for both of
us in different ways was,
395
00:19:41,714 --> 00:19:42,914
you know, was heavy.
396
00:19:42,915 --> 00:19:45,483
You're not the only one that's
been carrying this around
397
00:19:45,484 --> 00:19:46,519
for 12 years.
398
00:19:47,386 --> 00:19:48,887
Both are tired of fighting
each other and-
399
00:19:48,888 --> 00:19:51,423
and having this ill
will.
400
00:19:51,424 --> 00:19:53,591
My career and your career
shouldn't always
401
00:19:53,592 --> 00:19:56,761
be tagged by what happened
at Survivor Series.
402
00:19:56,762 --> 00:19:59,432
If you want to bury the hatchet,
let's bury it right now.
403
00:20:08,474 --> 00:20:10,442
It was like a big, giant
weight
404
00:20:10,443 --> 00:20:12,812
carrying around all
that anger and grief.
405
00:20:14,113 --> 00:20:16,315
The best thing I ever did was to
make peace with it.
406
00:20:21,220 --> 00:20:25,223
A moment many WWE fans never
thought they would ever see
407
00:20:25,224 --> 00:20:27,259
The Hitman back
where he belongs.
408
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,628
One thing's for sure-
409
00:20:30,629 --> 00:20:32,298
there's no place like home.
410
00:20:33,199 --> 00:20:36,201
That'll do it for this edition
of WWE's Greatest Moments.
411
00:20:36,202 --> 00:20:38,603
I hope you've enjoyed this look
back at the greatest comebacks
412
00:20:38,604 --> 00:20:42,073
ever seen in professional
wrestling.
