1
00:00:00,001 --> 00:00:02,435
[Gorilla Monsoon] Wait 'til you
hear this explosion
2
00:00:02,436 --> 00:00:03,603
as soon as they hear that music.
3
00:00:03,604 --> 00:00:05,038
??
4
00:00:05,039 --> 00:00:06,105
[Michael Cole] There's nothing
more electric
5
00:00:06,106 --> 00:00:08,609
than a WWE Superstar's entrance.
6
00:00:08,610 --> 00:00:09,675
The music-
7
00:00:09,676 --> 00:00:11,644
[nWo music intro]
8
00:00:11,645 --> 00:00:12,965
[Michael Cole] -the pyro,
9
00:00:12,966 --> 00:00:16,115
the swagger to the
ring enroute to do battle.
10
00:00:16,116 --> 00:00:18,351
[Gorilla Monsoon] The roof about
to explode here.
11
00:00:18,352 --> 00:00:21,020
[Michael Cole] An entrance sets
the tone for the excitement
12
00:00:21,021 --> 00:00:22,956
you're about to witness.
13
00:00:22,990 --> 00:00:26,126
From glass shattering to
heightened senses.
14
00:00:26,159 --> 00:00:27,594
[The Rock's music]
15
00:00:27,595 --> 00:00:28,761
[Michael Cole]
Today, we look back
16
00:00:28,762 --> 00:00:31,164
at the most exciting
entrances of the 1990s.
17
00:00:31,165 --> 00:00:33,199
[Jerry Lawler] That's what I
call making an entrance.
18
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:36,203
[Michael Cole] This is WWE's
Greatest Moments.
19
00:00:36,204 --> 00:00:38,704
[WWE's Greatest Moments' music]
20
00:00:38,705 --> 00:00:40,173
[The Rock] If you smell-
21
00:00:40,274 --> 00:00:43,044
[Michael Cole] Oh, my God, what
the hell are you doing?
22
00:00:43,510 --> 00:00:45,579
[Jim Ross] Absolutely
unbelievable.
23
00:00:45,612 --> 00:00:47,714
[Gorilla Monsoon] Hulkamania is
here.
24
00:00:52,719 --> 00:00:55,721
[Michael Cole] Welcome,
everyone,
25
00:00:55,722 --> 00:00:57,957
to WWE's Greatest Moments,
I'm Michael Cole,
26
00:00:57,958 --> 00:00:59,992
and on this edition, we're
taking a look back
27
00:00:59,993 --> 00:01:02,930
at some of the most adrenaline
inducing entrances
28
00:01:02,963 --> 00:01:04,831
during one of the hottest eras
29
00:01:04,864 --> 00:01:07,634
in professional wrestling
history, the 1990s.
30
00:01:07,635 --> 00:01:10,603
The entrance is one of the most
important elements
31
00:01:10,604 --> 00:01:12,639
of a superstar's presentation.
32
00:01:12,673 --> 00:01:15,342
Once that music hits, the crowd
gets deafening
33
00:01:15,442 --> 00:01:19,446
and your entire WWE trajectory
is off and running.
34
00:01:19,447 --> 00:01:23,916
[Jerry Lawler] JR, that's what I
call making an entrance.
35
00:01:23,917 --> 00:01:27,788
[Michael Cole] Now, I just have
one question for you.
36
00:01:27,821 --> 00:01:30,057
Are you ready?
37
00:01:30,058 --> 00:01:31,123
No, I said-
38
00:01:31,124 --> 00:01:34,361
[Triple H] Are you ready?
39
00:01:34,394 --> 00:01:35,862
[D-Generation X's music]
40
00:01:35,863 --> 00:01:37,396
[Michael Cole] Perhaps no
entrance in history
41
00:01:37,397 --> 00:01:39,766
could get audiences to rock out
more than
42
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,970
the Hall of Fame group,
D-Generation X.
43
00:01:42,971 --> 00:01:45,171
DX brought the party wherever
they went.
44
00:01:45,172 --> 00:01:47,441
[X-Pac] Raise some hell, make a
lot of noise.
45
00:01:47,474 --> 00:01:48,875
[crowd cheers]
46
00:01:48,876 --> 00:01:50,076
[Michael Cole] Take it from me,
it was a
47
00:01:50,077 --> 00:01:53,981
literal rave inside the arena
every night.
48
00:01:53,982 --> 00:01:56,182
But it was at SummerSlam 1998
that the leader
49
00:01:56,183 --> 00:02:00,053
of the D-Generates, Triple H,
shook Madison Square Garden
50
00:02:00,087 --> 00:02:01,137
to its very core.
51
00:02:03,657 --> 00:02:05,492
[Chris Warren] Are you ready?
52
00:02:05,493 --> 00:02:08,361
[Jim Ross] That's Chris Warren
and the DX Band-
53
00:02:08,362 --> 00:02:09,294
[Jerry Lawler] Whoa.
54
00:02:09,295 --> 00:02:10,363
[Jim Ross] -performing live
here.
55
00:02:10,364 --> 00:02:11,564
[Peter Rosenberg] This was a
really cool moment
56
00:02:11,565 --> 00:02:13,555
because we had not gotten to the
era yet
57
00:02:14,701 --> 00:02:17,804
of bands performing
before a big match.
58
00:02:19,006 --> 00:02:21,875
[Brian James] It was so super
cool to see to see the guy-
59
00:02:21,876 --> 00:02:23,442
You think you're better than us?
60
00:02:23,443 --> 00:02:24,823
And he's walking to the ring.
61
00:02:24,824 --> 00:02:25,711
You better-
62
00:02:25,712 --> 00:02:28,281
[Chris Warren] Bow to the
masters.
63
00:02:28,282 --> 00:02:29,448
Break it down.
64
00:02:29,449 --> 00:02:30,082
D-Generation X-
65
00:02:30,083 --> 00:02:35,722
??
66
00:02:35,723 --> 00:02:37,323
[Paul Levesque] Sold out, people
hanging from the rafters.
67
00:02:37,324 --> 00:02:42,029
The reaction was so over the
top, incredible.
68
00:02:42,996 --> 00:02:44,398
[X-Pac] It sounded great.
69
00:02:44,431 --> 00:02:46,800
So loud in there, like I'm
getting tingly
70
00:02:46,833 --> 00:02:49,870
just thinking about it.
71
00:02:49,871 --> 00:02:51,871
[Chris Warren] D-Generation.
72
00:02:51,872 --> 00:02:52,938
[Paul Levesque] I've been very
lucky in my career
73
00:02:52,939 --> 00:02:55,241
to have some of the
biggest moments.
74
00:02:55,242 --> 00:02:57,444
This one was really special.
75
00:02:57,985 --> 00:03:02,615
[Michael Cole] One of the most
popular stars in professional
76
00:03:02,616 --> 00:03:05,452
wrestling was undoubtedly the
man called Sting.
77
00:03:05,485 --> 00:03:06,787
[Sting] Whoo.
78
00:03:06,788 --> 00:03:09,188
[Michael Cole] The bright face
paint, the neon ring attire.
79
00:03:09,189 --> 00:03:11,324
Fans worldwide loved Sting.
80
00:03:11,792 --> 00:03:17,631
[Sting] I have given my blood,
my sweat and my tears for WCW.
81
00:03:17,632 --> 00:03:19,565
[Michael Cole] But over time,
82
00:03:19,566 --> 00:03:21,267
the Stinger's
appearance changed.
83
00:03:21,268 --> 00:03:23,636
A more mysterious and dark
broody persona began
84
00:03:23,637 --> 00:03:25,471
to emerge out of the icon.
85
00:03:25,472 --> 00:03:29,376
The vibrancy was traded in for a
plain black and white look.
86
00:03:29,409 --> 00:03:32,879
After lurking in the shadows for
a year, we saw the Stinger like
87
00:03:32,913 --> 00:03:36,883
we've never seen him before at
Starrcade 1997.
88
00:03:39,406 --> 00:03:43,122
[Tony Schiavone] You have to go
back to the end
89
00:03:43,123 --> 00:03:45,725
of the summer of
1996
90
00:03:45,726 --> 00:03:48,376
to remember the last time this
man walked to the ring.
91
00:03:48,377 --> 00:03:51,030
[David Shoemaker] His return to
the ring was a just huge event
92
00:03:51,031 --> 00:03:53,433
regardless, but his entrance
that night,
93
00:03:53,533 --> 00:03:54,801
I'll never forget it.
94
00:03:55,602 --> 00:03:59,206
[Sting's intro music]
95
00:03:59,239 --> 00:04:02,309
When a man's heart is
full of deceit,
96
00:04:02,409 --> 00:04:08,014
it burns up, dies, and a dark
shadow fights over his soul.
97
00:04:08,015 --> 00:04:10,282
[David Shoemaker] It was like a
child's voice, and it's like-
98
00:04:10,283 --> 00:04:11,818
it starts off in shadows.
99
00:04:11,819 --> 00:04:12,685
[Sting's intro music]
100
00:04:12,686 --> 00:04:14,387
This is Sting.
101
00:04:14,955 --> 00:04:19,559
[Sting] Me being the face of WCW
for so many years,
102
00:04:19,593 --> 00:04:21,228
I knew I had to change.
103
00:04:21,261 --> 00:04:24,364
A little bit more cutting edge,
a little bit more hardcore.
104
00:04:24,831 --> 00:04:26,600
Wrestling fans wanted to see
that.
105
00:04:26,601 --> 00:04:30,536
[David Shoemaker] And he sort of
like walks to the ring,
106
00:04:30,537 --> 00:04:32,606
but the whole thing
feels so weighted
107
00:04:33,907 --> 00:04:37,109
[Peter Rosenberg] The dark,
brooding, ominous Sting
108
00:04:37,110 --> 00:04:39,445
was really the beginning of
something that would be
109
00:04:39,446 --> 00:04:41,914
a big part of defining his
career moving forward.
110
00:04:41,915 --> 00:04:44,316
[Sting] There was an aura that
night that was in the audience,
111
00:04:44,317 --> 00:04:46,547
it was in the locker room,
it was everywhere.
112
00:04:48,188 --> 00:04:51,424
[Tony Schiavone] That's a cold
stare, is what that is.
113
00:04:51,425 --> 00:04:53,159
[Lex Luger] He was really
excited about it.
114
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:54,394
I thought it was great.
115
00:04:54,427 --> 00:04:55,996
The crowd reacted incredible.
116
00:04:55,997 --> 00:04:57,963
[Rey Mysterio] The presentation
that Sting walked out to-
117
00:04:57,964 --> 00:05:00,033
For years we had bright colors,
118
00:05:00,066 --> 00:05:02,669
all of a sudden more
grimy, more dark.
119
00:05:02,769 --> 00:05:04,905
It was a huge transition.
120
00:05:05,005 --> 00:05:09,642
[Sting] Just to hear the crowd
react, to see the interest that
121
00:05:09,643 --> 00:05:12,779
people had, and to hear the buzz
all over the place.
122
00:05:12,813 --> 00:05:15,115
One of the greatest times that I
had.
123
00:05:15,850 --> 00:05:21,353
[Michael Cole] Talking about the
greatest entrances of all time,
124
00:05:21,354 --> 00:05:22,889
we cannot leave out-
125
00:05:22,890 --> 00:05:23,989
[Gorilla Monsoon] The phenom.
126
00:05:23,990 --> 00:05:25,724
[Jim Ross] The prince of
darkness.
127
00:05:25,725 --> 00:05:27,835
[Michael Cole] The immortal
Undertaker.
128
00:05:27,836 --> 00:05:31,564
For three decades, the Deadman's
entrance was a sight to behold.
129
00:05:31,565 --> 00:05:35,435
Completely awe inspiring.
130
00:05:35,468 --> 00:05:41,374
The ominous walk, the lightning,
the thunder.
131
00:05:43,610 --> 00:05:46,780
Everything about the Phenom sent
chills up your spine.
132
00:05:46,781 --> 00:05:49,148
[Jerry Lawler] I don't think
there's any doubt that
133
00:05:49,149 --> 00:05:51,718
is the most awesome entrance in
history.
134
00:05:51,719 --> 00:05:54,386
[Michael Cole] It was inside
Madison Square Garden
135
00:05:54,387 --> 00:05:56,589
where the Deadman would make
entrance that would make
136
00:05:56,590 --> 00:05:59,259
and the Dark Knight himself
beam with pride.
137
00:06:01,522 --> 00:06:06,332
[Undertaker] I tried to keep
people off guard, like,
138
00:06:06,333 --> 00:06:08,235
"W-What's he gonna do next?"
139
00:06:09,769 --> 00:06:15,208
I had envisioned this entrance
where I would descend
140
00:06:15,242 --> 00:06:16,943
into the building.
141
00:06:17,043 --> 00:06:18,778
My vision was dragging a
142
00:06:18,812 --> 00:06:23,583
demonic-looking,
dragon-esque type creator.
143
00:06:23,683 --> 00:06:26,393
You'd think, "That- that's kind
of way over the top,"
144
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,588
somehow or another, it worked.
145
00:06:28,622 --> 00:06:32,391
[Vince McMahon] Welcome to the
Survivor Series.
146
00:06:32,392 --> 00:06:33,993
And we are going to
see an Undertaker
147
00:06:33,994 --> 00:06:36,162
like we've
never seen before.
148
00:06:36,163 --> 00:06:38,831
[Damian Priest] Survivor Series
'96 was hands down one of my
149
00:06:38,832 --> 00:06:40,165
favorite events that I ever
attended.
150
00:06:40,166 --> 00:06:42,569
[Undertaker's music]
151
00:06:42,570 --> 00:06:45,037
[Vince McMahon] He is the
Undertaker, and look at that.
152
00:06:45,038 --> 00:06:47,207
He's descending from above.
153
00:06:48,308 --> 00:06:51,745
[Damian Priest] Seeing Taker
come down like a bat was creepy,
154
00:06:51,845 --> 00:06:53,847
but I thought it was cool in a
way.
155
00:06:53,848 --> 00:06:55,981
[Vince McMahon] Sending chills
up and down
156
00:06:55,982 --> 00:06:59,085
the spine of this
capacity crowd.
157
00:06:59,086 --> 00:07:02,154
[Undertaker] I was really trying
to put something out there
158
00:07:02,155 --> 00:07:03,757
that people would remember.
159
00:07:04,591 --> 00:07:06,893
[Vince McMahon] Now that's the
Undertaker.
160
00:07:07,568 --> 00:07:11,664
[Michael Cole] There's no
question that one of the most
161
00:07:11,665 --> 00:07:14,166
influential groups of all time
is the New World Order,
162
00:07:14,167 --> 00:07:15,634
led by "Hollywood" Hogan.
163
00:07:15,635 --> 00:07:18,071
The nWo had a swagger that
resonated
164
00:07:18,171 --> 00:07:19,551
with audiences everywhere.
165
00:07:20,073 --> 00:07:23,109
[Hulk Hogan] Here's the nWo.
166
00:07:23,110 --> 00:07:26,045
[Michael Cole] The black and
white gear,
167
00:07:26,046 --> 00:07:27,681
the pompous attitude.
168
00:07:28,148 --> 00:07:30,198
The New World Order had that
cool factor.
169
00:07:30,984 --> 00:07:35,355
Everyone wanted a piece of the
nWo, including basketball icons.
170
00:07:37,337 --> 00:07:41,627
[Tony Schiavone] The limousine
has pulled up here
171
00:07:41,628 --> 00:07:45,332
to the United Center, the home
of the world champion
172
00:07:45,365 --> 00:07:47,500
Chicago Bulls, tonight,
173
00:07:47,534 --> 00:07:51,471
is the home of professional
wrestling's number one program,
174
00:07:51,504 --> 00:07:53,340
Nitro Live.
175
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,242
And, oh my goodness, that is an
nWo limousine.
176
00:07:56,243 --> 00:07:59,244
[Hulk Hogan] The city of
champions.
177
00:07:59,245 --> 00:08:01,775
[Tony Schiavone] Dennis Rodman,
The Worm is here.
178
00:08:01,776 --> 00:08:03,482
[David Shoemaker] Just actually
one of the coolest
179
00:08:03,483 --> 00:08:04,584
entrances of all time.
180
00:08:04,585 --> 00:08:06,685
The single camera shot from the
limo,
181
00:08:06,686 --> 00:08:08,736
all the way through the
back, to the ring.
182
00:08:09,389 --> 00:08:11,199
[Tony Schiavone] What a duo this
is.
183
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,392
Well, they are making their way,
apparently,
184
00:08:13,393 --> 00:08:16,363
right to the entrance way, right
to the ring area here.
185
00:08:16,364 --> 00:08:18,330
[Bobby Heenan] They're coming
right out here.
186
00:08:18,331 --> 00:08:19,999
[Liv Morgan] I feel like they
were like the first guys that
187
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:21,667
was like, "We're gonna take
over, and we're gonna do
188
00:08:21,668 --> 00:08:24,378
whatever we want, and we're
gonna look cool doing it."
189
00:08:25,605 --> 00:08:29,142
[Tony Schiavone] Hulk Hogan,
Dennis Rodman, together,
190
00:08:29,242 --> 00:08:30,477
Eric Bischoff in tow.
191
00:08:31,244 --> 00:08:34,280
[Hulk Hogan] This super cool
brand of bad guys,
192
00:08:34,281 --> 00:08:36,815
that still sold merchandise,
that still were cool.
193
00:08:36,816 --> 00:08:40,006
[Tony Schiavone] You see this
capacity crowd on hand standing.
194
00:08:40,007 --> 00:08:42,321
[Dennis Rodman] It's, uh, one of
those things where people
195
00:08:42,322 --> 00:08:43,556
just-just get hooked on.
196
00:08:43,590 --> 00:08:47,559
??
197
00:08:47,560 --> 00:08:49,595
[Michael Cole] One of the most
fun things about a WWE
198
00:08:49,596 --> 00:08:52,006
entrance is the interaction with
the audience.
199
00:08:52,198 --> 00:08:54,033
No one did that better than-
200
00:08:54,034 --> 00:08:55,834
[Road Dogg] "The Road Dogg"
Jesse James,
201
00:08:55,835 --> 00:08:57,370
"The Badd Ass"
Billy Gunn.
202
00:08:57,371 --> 00:09:00,239
[Michael Cole] The tandem known
as the New Age Outlaws presented
203
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,042
a different style of entrance
where the crowd that was able
204
00:09:03,043 --> 00:09:05,512
to play along while the
D-O-Double G
205
00:09:05,545 --> 00:09:07,546
did his thing on the microphone.
206
00:09:07,547 --> 00:09:10,016
[Road Dogg] Welcome to the Dogg
House.
207
00:09:12,018 --> 00:09:14,008
[Michael Cole] And if you didn't
know,
208
00:09:14,054 --> 00:09:15,955
your ass better call somebody.
209
00:09:19,759 --> 00:09:23,863
[New Age Outlaws' music]
210
00:09:23,963 --> 00:09:26,332
[crowd yells
"Oh, you didn't know?
211
00:09:26,366 --> 00:09:32,839
Your ass better call somebody"]
212
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:34,740
[Road Dogg] Oh, you didn't know?
213
00:09:34,741 --> 00:09:36,675
Your ass better call somebody.
214
00:09:36,676 --> 00:09:39,078
This was all stuff we were
saying to each other backstage.
215
00:09:39,079 --> 00:09:42,029
We were doing things at this
point to entertain ourselves.
216
00:09:42,030 --> 00:09:44,583
It just so happened that it
turned into being entertaining
217
00:09:44,584 --> 00:09:45,634
for the fans as well.
218
00:09:45,635 --> 00:09:49,588
[Billy Gunn] Every single night,
we would turn it up to 100 and
219
00:09:49,589 --> 00:09:50,969
try to blow the speakers out.
220
00:09:50,970 --> 00:09:54,259
It was like being able to hang
out with your best friend
221
00:09:54,260 --> 00:09:56,096
and act like a complete idiot.
222
00:09:56,563 --> 00:09:58,798
How much better than that does
it get?
223
00:09:58,832 --> 00:10:01,301
[Road Dogg] Those New Age
Outlaws always kick
224
00:10:01,401 --> 00:10:05,437
tha shiznit doggy style.
225
00:10:05,438 --> 00:10:06,673
They were raucous.
226
00:10:06,773 --> 00:10:09,075
The crowd was electric.
227
00:10:09,076 --> 00:10:10,843
Everybody in the crowd was
standing,
228
00:10:10,844 --> 00:10:14,914
and everybody in the crowd was
reciting every word I said.
229
00:10:14,948 --> 00:10:18,351
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and
girls, children of all ages,
230
00:10:18,384 --> 00:10:21,920
D-Generation X proudly brings to
you its soon-to-be
231
00:10:21,921 --> 00:10:29,996
WWE Tag Team Champions
of the world,
232
00:10:30,029 --> 00:10:32,164
"The Road Dogg" Jesse James,
233
00:10:32,165 --> 00:10:37,403
"The Badd Ass" Billy Gunn,
the New Age Outlaws.
234
00:10:37,404 --> 00:10:41,640
[Billy Gunn] Me and Road Dogg,
that's what solidified us,
235
00:10:41,641 --> 00:10:45,812
is "Hey, these guys are
here, and we are badass."
236
00:10:46,746 --> 00:10:51,050
And if you're not down with
that, we got two words for you.
237
00:10:51,084 --> 00:10:53,219
[crowd yells "Suck it"]
238
00:10:53,220 --> 00:10:57,689
[Michael Cole] We've already
seen the eerie presence
239
00:10:57,690 --> 00:10:59,758
that the Undertaker makes each
time he enters an arena.
240
00:10:59,759 --> 00:11:03,363
Trust me, there's nothing like
that feeling of witnessing
241
00:11:03,396 --> 00:11:04,764
an Undertaker entrance.
242
00:11:05,398 --> 00:11:08,835
The Deadman has risen.
243
00:11:08,868 --> 00:11:12,138
The grand stage of WrestleMania
14 saw one of the most
244
00:11:12,172 --> 00:11:14,707
eerie appearances of all time.
245
00:11:18,845 --> 00:11:26,386
[Undertaker's music]
246
00:11:26,387 --> 00:11:28,554
[Undertaker] You hear the roar
of that crowd and the love
247
00:11:28,555 --> 00:11:30,789
that they're throwing out,
it was pretty cool.
248
00:11:30,790 --> 00:11:32,392
It was a pretty cool feeling.
249
00:11:32,393 --> 00:11:35,127
[Jim Ross] The Druids
representing the creatures
250
00:11:35,128 --> 00:11:38,031
of the night worldwide.
251
00:11:38,032 --> 00:11:39,431
[Joe Hendry] I think what's
amazing about Undertaker's
252
00:11:39,432 --> 00:11:42,702
entrance, is over the years,
being able to add elements
253
00:11:42,802 --> 00:11:45,238
to that entrance, like by adding
the druids,
254
00:11:45,271 --> 00:11:47,473
it adds to the legend
of the Undertaker.
255
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:49,641
[lighting strikes]
256
00:11:49,642 --> 00:11:50,843
[Jerry Lawler] Whoa.
257
00:11:51,878 --> 00:11:53,313
[Jim Ross] There he is.
258
00:11:54,714 --> 00:11:55,854
The Prince of Darkness.
259
00:11:56,783 --> 00:11:59,313
[Mick Foley] There was an
element of magic at hand.
260
00:11:59,314 --> 00:12:01,720
[Jim Ross] The Undertaker
already playing some mind
261
00:12:01,721 --> 00:12:03,923
games with his younger brother.
262
00:12:03,924 --> 00:12:06,425
[Kane] It was really, really
intimidating.
263
00:12:06,426 --> 00:12:09,162
My disbelief was suspended.
264
00:12:09,195 --> 00:12:11,905
And I'm the guy standing in the
ring, and here he comes.
265
00:12:12,065 --> 00:12:15,068
[Undertaker] The druids, my big
robe that I had on.
266
00:12:15,101 --> 00:12:17,570
At that point, it was one of my
bigger entrances.
267
00:12:18,137 --> 00:12:20,067
[Jim Ross] My God, what an
experience.
268
00:12:20,173 --> 00:12:21,493
The arrival of the Deadman.
269
00:12:25,378 --> 00:12:26,512
[door knocks]
270
00:12:26,513 --> 00:12:30,515
[Michael Cole] There's one man
in professional
271
00:12:30,516 --> 00:12:33,118
wrestling history that can
define the word intensity
272
00:12:33,119 --> 00:12:35,255
with just one note
of his theme song.
273
00:12:36,923 --> 00:12:38,358
[Goldberg's music]
274
00:12:38,391 --> 00:12:41,281
[Tony Schiavone] We have never
seen a man quite like this.
275
00:12:42,202 --> 00:12:47,165
[Michael Cole] The myth of
Goldberg is legendary.
276
00:12:47,166 --> 00:12:49,268
This man literally walked
through fire on his way
277
00:12:49,269 --> 00:12:50,709
to spearing the competition.
278
00:12:52,405 --> 00:12:56,109
[Goldberg] Do I look like the
kind of guy to mess around with?
279
00:12:56,622 --> 00:13:00,445
[Michael Cole] And one thing was
for certain.
280
00:13:00,446 --> 00:13:03,583
By the end of the night,
everyone would be chanting-
281
00:13:03,683 --> 00:13:07,754
[crowd chants "Goldberg"]
282
00:13:10,456 --> 00:13:13,159
[Tony Schiavone] As the fans
are standing in unison
283
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,460
and the most famous chant in
professional wrestling
284
00:13:15,461 --> 00:13:17,897
is filling up the MGM
Grand.
285
00:13:17,898 --> 00:13:20,999
[Rey Mysterio] When I would
watch Goldberg's entrance,
286
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,137
it was probably one of the most
original entrances
287
00:13:24,170 --> 00:13:25,220
that I had seen.
288
00:13:27,273 --> 00:13:30,209
Door would open,
security would line up,
289
00:13:30,243 --> 00:13:33,179
he would walk right by security.
290
00:13:33,212 --> 00:13:34,714
It made him a star.
291
00:13:34,715 --> 00:13:39,217
[Tony Schiavone] You know, this
is an intimidating sight.
292
00:13:39,218 --> 00:13:41,353
[David Shoemaker] He stood out
in such stark contrast
293
00:13:41,354 --> 00:13:42,404
to everything else.
294
00:13:42,989 --> 00:13:45,958
He's just this larger-than-life
badass force of nature.
295
00:13:47,660 --> 00:13:49,362
[Bobby Heenan] The man is here.
296
00:13:51,030 --> 00:13:53,860
[Rey Mysterio] The entrance was
captivating by itself.
297
00:13:55,234 --> 00:13:58,871
[Commentator] As Goldberg's
somewhere lost in that fire.
298
00:13:58,971 --> 00:14:02,775
[Goldberg] You always hope that
your entrance would make
299
00:14:02,875 --> 00:14:04,805
the biggest splash
humanly possible.
300
00:14:05,812 --> 00:14:08,642
And that night I took it to a
completely different level.
301
00:14:08,643 --> 00:14:11,383
[Bobby Heenan] There's not a
butt on a chair in this place.
302
00:14:11,384 --> 00:14:12,718
[Eric Bischoff] All that had
kind of a prize
303
00:14:12,719 --> 00:14:14,220
fight feel to it.
304
00:14:14,687 --> 00:14:17,757
[Tony Schiavone] There's nothing
like a Goldberg entrance.
305
00:14:17,758 --> 00:14:21,026
[Michael Cole] During the late
1990s, Bret "The Hitman" Hart
306
00:14:21,027 --> 00:14:23,730
was in a war with the United
States of America.
307
00:14:23,731 --> 00:14:26,365
[Bret Hart] I've been all over
the United States of America,
308
00:14:26,366 --> 00:14:29,902
and the one thing that I've been
particular look forward to
309
00:14:30,002 --> 00:14:31,237
is leaving it.
310
00:14:31,238 --> 00:14:33,605
[Michael Cole] As backup, The
Hitman recruited his own family
311
00:14:33,606 --> 00:14:35,874
to join the cause, the Hart
Foundation.
312
00:14:35,875 --> 00:14:40,980
July 1997, WWE presented In Your
House, Canadian Stampede,
313
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,016
held in Calgary, the
birthplace of the Harts.
314
00:14:44,017 --> 00:14:48,920
[Jim Ross] It's absolutely
phenomenal the popularity
315
00:14:48,921 --> 00:14:51,491
for the greatest wrestling
family in the game.
316
00:14:51,991 --> 00:14:55,121
[TJ Wilson] Those entrances at
Canadian Stampede are insane.
317
00:14:55,122 --> 00:14:57,996
The Hart Foundation make their
entrances separately.
318
00:14:57,997 --> 00:15:01,667
[Howard Finkel] Brian Pillman.
319
00:15:01,668 --> 00:15:05,070
[Bret Hart] This was like the
pinnacle, like maybe the
320
00:15:05,071 --> 00:15:07,974
greatest moment of triumph to
come back to our hometown.
321
00:15:09,075 --> 00:15:10,410
It was like a magical time.
322
00:15:11,377 --> 00:15:14,680
[Howard Finkel] Jim "The Anvil"
Neidhart.
323
00:15:15,515 --> 00:15:18,785
[Jim Neidhart] That was
probably the largest pop
324
00:15:18,885 --> 00:15:19,935
I've ever gotten.
325
00:15:20,753 --> 00:15:23,289
[Howard Finkel] The British
Bulldog.
326
00:15:23,290 --> 00:15:25,524
[Kevin Owens] Every entrance
would get louder,
327
00:15:25,525 --> 00:15:28,694
and I remember the reaction to
Owen was really crazy.
328
00:15:30,096 --> 00:15:32,397
[Howard Finkel] Owen Hart.
329
00:15:32,398 --> 00:15:36,035
[Bret Hart] I mean, everybody
was so happy to be in Calgary,
330
00:15:36,068 --> 00:15:37,570
and we were the heroes at home.
331
00:15:39,205 --> 00:15:44,877
[Bret Hart's music]
332
00:15:44,911 --> 00:15:46,878
[Howard Finkel] Leading the
charge-
333
00:15:46,879 --> 00:15:51,417
Bret "Hitman" Hart.
334
00:15:51,418 --> 00:15:53,084
[Bret Hart] It actually hurt my
ears.
335
00:15:53,085 --> 00:15:54,719
I remember this is the loudest
sound I've
336
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:56,122
ever heard in my life.
337
00:15:56,123 --> 00:15:58,190
[Jerry Lawler] This building is
shaking.
338
00:15:58,191 --> 00:16:00,241
[Jim Ross] You gotta be here to
feel this.
339
00:16:00,242 --> 00:16:01,426
[Bret Hart] It gave me
goosebumps
340
00:16:01,427 --> 00:16:03,357
and just was such a-a
powerful moment.
341
00:16:07,333 --> 00:16:10,736
[Vince McMahon] There is a
celebration for the entire Hart
342
00:16:10,770 --> 00:16:13,272
family and the Hart Foundation.
343
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:18,276
[Michael Cole] Sometimes, all
you need to make a lasting
344
00:16:18,277 --> 00:16:19,417
impression is a sound-
345
00:16:19,445 --> 00:16:20,912
[glass breaking]
346
00:16:20,913 --> 00:16:22,347
- -that lets everyone know
who you are and
347
00:16:22,348 --> 00:16:25,551
what you're all about, and that
a tall glass of whoop ass
348
00:16:25,651 --> 00:16:27,720
is about to be served.
349
00:16:28,321 --> 00:16:31,724
I'm talking about none other
than "Stone Cold" Steve Austin.
350
00:16:31,725 --> 00:16:35,427
[Jim Ross] No champion has ever
entered Madison Square Garden
351
00:16:35,428 --> 00:16:36,963
with that kind of ovation.
352
00:16:36,964 --> 00:16:39,030
[Michael Cole] When that glass
shattered,
353
00:16:39,031 --> 00:16:41,200
you knew that hell was about
to be raised.
354
00:16:42,068 --> 00:16:45,138
And with that take no prisoners
walk, Austin meant business.
355
00:16:45,972 --> 00:16:48,341
[Steve Austin] If you want to
see Stone Cold,
356
00:16:48,441 --> 00:16:49,609
give me a hell
yeah.
357
00:16:49,642 --> 00:16:51,377
[crowd yells "Hell yeah"]
358
00:16:51,378 --> 00:16:54,513
[Michael Cole] I'll never forget
sitting at ringside
359
00:16:54,514 --> 00:16:56,883
on January 4th, 1999,
360
00:16:56,916 --> 00:16:58,917
when Mankind was battling
The Rock
361
00:16:58,918 --> 00:17:00,753
for the WWE Championship.
362
00:17:01,754 --> 00:17:04,290
I've been in WWE for almost
three decades,
363
00:17:04,323 --> 00:17:07,926
and I've never heard a reaction
like when the Texas Rattlesnake
364
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:09,494
made his presence felt.
365
00:17:12,832 --> 00:17:15,634
[Michael Cole] The WWE
Championship is up for grabs.
366
00:17:15,635 --> 00:17:17,602
Mankind has locked in
the Mandible Claw.
367
00:17:17,603 --> 00:17:18,403
[Jerry Lawler] Yes.
368
00:17:18,404 --> 00:17:19,604
[Michael Cole] Oh.
369
00:17:19,605 --> 00:17:20,872
[Peter Rosenberg] Mick Foley has
his back against the wall,
370
00:17:20,873 --> 00:17:23,763
and you think the deck is
completely stacked against him.
371
00:17:23,764 --> 00:17:24,910
[Jerry Lawler] Look out.
372
00:17:24,911 --> 00:17:25,911
[Michael Cole] There's Billy
Gunn.
373
00:17:25,912 --> 00:17:27,444
[LA Knight] One of the corporate
members came in.
374
00:17:27,445 --> 00:17:29,715
Billy Gunn nailed the hell out
of him.
375
00:17:29,749 --> 00:17:31,979
They let it hang for like
about five seconds.
376
00:17:32,785 --> 00:17:35,615
[Michael Cole] DX and the
corporate team are going at it.
377
00:17:36,188 --> 00:17:37,623
[Stone Cold's music]
378
00:17:37,624 --> 00:17:38,323
[crowd cheers]
379
00:17:38,324 --> 00:17:39,404
[Michael Cole] What?
380
00:17:39,881 --> 00:17:41,927
[Jerry Lawler] Oh, no.
381
00:17:41,928 --> 00:17:43,295
[Michael Cole] Stone Cold is
here.
382
00:17:43,296 --> 00:17:45,163
[LA Knight] Place went crazy,
and you thought,
383
00:17:45,164 --> 00:17:48,000
"Wow, that was a crazy reaction
from the crowd."
384
00:17:48,001 --> 00:17:48,833
[Jerry Lawler] Oh, no.
385
00:17:48,834 --> 00:17:50,836
Stone Cold is here.
386
00:17:50,837 --> 00:17:53,238
[Stone Cold] As soon as that
glass breaks,
387
00:17:53,239 --> 00:17:54,499
it's a shot of adrenaline.
388
00:17:54,500 --> 00:17:56,641
[Jerry Lawler] The Rattlesnake
is here.
389
00:17:56,642 --> 00:17:57,676
Look out.
390
00:17:57,677 --> 00:17:59,847
[Michael Cole] Oh, Stone Cold
with a chair.
391
00:17:59,912 --> 00:18:01,647
[Jerry Lawler] Don't do it.
392
00:18:01,681 --> 00:18:03,349
[bell rings]
393
00:18:03,350 --> 00:18:06,084
[Stone Cold] It was just like a
wave of voices
394
00:18:06,085 --> 00:18:08,653
that just wouldn't stop the
entire time I was out there.
395
00:18:08,654 --> 00:18:11,184
[Jerry Lawler] Every single soul
is on their feet.
396
00:18:11,185 --> 00:18:12,958
They love "Stone Cold" Steve
Austin.
397
00:18:12,959 --> 00:18:14,260
[crowd cheers]
398
00:18:14,261 --> 00:18:18,363
[Michael Cole] It is now time
for our number one moment,
399
00:18:18,364 --> 00:18:21,254
and it's one that has been in
highlight reels for 30 years.
400
00:18:22,234 --> 00:18:27,073
[Shawn Michaels' music]
401
00:18:27,074 --> 00:18:28,206
[Michael Cole] Shawn Michaels.
402
00:18:28,207 --> 00:18:29,474
The Heartbreak Kid had it all.
403
00:18:29,475 --> 00:18:32,378
The looks, the athleticism, and
the entrance.
404
00:18:32,379 --> 00:18:33,712
[Vince McMahon] What charisma.
405
00:18:33,713 --> 00:18:35,147
What athleticism.
406
00:18:35,247 --> 00:18:37,683
Shawn Michael, Mr. Flamboyant.
407
00:18:37,684 --> 00:18:39,784
[Shawn Michaels] But one thing
is for sure, The Heartbreak Kid
408
00:18:39,785 --> 00:18:41,854
is gonna be kicking it
with The Klique.
409
00:18:41,855 --> 00:18:44,522
[Michael Cole] But perhaps none
of HBK's entrances can top the
410
00:18:44,523 --> 00:18:46,292
one at WrestleMania 12.
411
00:18:46,293 --> 00:18:48,593
[Shawn Michaels] And if you
wanna see a slammin' jammin'
412
00:18:48,594 --> 00:18:51,897
entrance, what I've done in the
past is nothing
413
00:18:51,931 --> 00:18:54,533
compared to what I'm going to
do tomorrow night.
414
00:18:56,311 --> 00:18:58,603
[Shawn Michaels' music]
415
00:18:58,604 --> 00:19:00,071
[Howard Finkel] Introducing
first,
416
00:19:00,072 --> 00:19:03,442
"The Heartbreak Kid"
Shawn Michaels.
417
00:19:03,443 --> 00:19:07,045
[Jerry Lawler] There's no Shawn
Michaels.
418
00:19:07,046 --> 00:19:08,726
[Vince McMahon] What's going on?
419
00:19:08,727 --> 00:19:09,714
[crowd cheers]
420
00:19:09,715 --> 00:19:10,315
[Vince McMahon] Wait a minute.
421
00:19:10,316 --> 00:19:11,349
[Jerry Lawler] Whoa.
422
00:19:11,350 --> 00:19:12,617
[Vince McMahon] Is that who we
think it is?
423
00:19:12,618 --> 00:19:13,918
[Shawn Michaels] Vince came up
to me, and he was informing me
424
00:19:13,919 --> 00:19:15,687
about this was gonna be my
entrance.
425
00:19:15,688 --> 00:19:17,590
And I was like, "Yeah, okay."
426
00:19:17,591 --> 00:19:18,590
[laughing]
427
00:19:18,591 --> 00:19:19,591
I'm like, "Are you
kidding me?"
428
00:19:19,592 --> 00:19:20,458
[crowd cheers]
429
00:19:20,459 --> 00:19:21,393
[Vince McMahon] Shawn Michaels,
430
00:19:21,394 --> 00:19:23,144
ladies and gentlemen,
high above.
431
00:19:23,145 --> 00:19:25,597
[Liv Morgan] It's just such a
cool visual, too,
432
00:19:25,598 --> 00:19:29,235
just to see this man, like,
parasailing down to the ring.
433
00:19:29,702 --> 00:19:32,471
[Vince McMahon] Unbelievable,
what a ride.
434
00:19:34,740 --> 00:19:36,275
Wow, baby.
435
00:19:36,276 --> 00:19:38,410
[Kevin Owens] He's doing a show
up there, too, you know?
436
00:19:38,411 --> 00:19:40,701
You know, he's not just holding
on terrified.
437
00:19:40,702 --> 00:19:43,548
[Bret Hart] I remember thinking
there's not a chance in hell
438
00:19:43,549 --> 00:19:46,139
they could've talked to me into
doing that that day.
439
00:19:46,140 --> 00:19:48,586
[Shawn Michaels] Certainly, in
practice, I mean,
440
00:19:48,587 --> 00:19:51,417
it seems all like a good idea,
and it was a fantastic idea.
441
00:19:51,418 --> 00:19:54,559
[Vince McMahon] He said at the
Slammys just last night,
442
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,828
"You ain't seen nothing yet."
443
00:19:56,829 --> 00:19:59,065
Little did we know, he meant
this.
444
00:19:59,066 --> 00:20:00,632
[Shawn Michaels] It was, sort
of,
445
00:20:00,633 --> 00:20:02,263
it felt like my
coming out party.
446
00:20:02,635 --> 00:20:07,073
[Vince McMahon] There's only one
"Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels.
447
00:20:07,074 --> 00:20:08,073
Oh, no.
448
00:20:08,074 --> 00:20:09,124
Look at that.
449
00:20:09,148 --> 00:20:12,077
[Michael Cole] One thing is for
sure,
450
00:20:12,078 --> 00:20:14,580
there is indeed only one
Shawn Michaels.
451
00:20:15,414 --> 00:20:18,117
Being a part of a WWE entrance
and being surrounded
452
00:20:18,150 --> 00:20:21,587
by that energy from the crowd
is an indescribable feeling.
453
00:20:21,588 --> 00:20:24,756
It not only sets the table for
the in-ring performers
454
00:20:24,757 --> 00:20:26,691
but brings you into the show and
hooks you
455
00:20:26,692 --> 00:20:28,527
into a live event like no other.
456
00:20:28,528 --> 00:20:30,195
Well, that'll do it for this
edition
457
00:20:30,196 --> 00:20:31,997
of WWE's Greatest Moments.
458
00:20:31,998 --> 00:20:34,232
I hope you've enjoyed this look
back at some of the most
459
00:20:34,233 --> 00:20:38,204
memorable entrances from the
rocking era of the 1990s.
