Take off your clothes. 745 00:40:04,452 --> 00:40:05,369 Damn it! 746 00:40:06,037 --> 00:40:10,958 We are constantly pushing the boundaries in terms of taste. 747 00:40:11,042 --> 00:40:12,793 Many things are worth asking questions about. 748 00:40:13,377 --> 00:40:17,590 Kneel like this and you look really beautiful, Chyna. It's almost a natural pose. 749 00:40:18,090 --> 00:40:21,510 This industry takes advantage of women in ways you wouldn't believe. 750 00:40:21,594 --> 00:40:23,763 But how can it be sold? and the viewers are men 751 00:40:23,846 --> 00:40:26,140 Male teenagers have seen women get treated like that. 752 00:40:26,224 --> 00:40:29,310 From a purely marketing perspective It was very successful. 753 00:40:29,393 --> 00:40:33,022 In the Attitude Era Women are not considered real wrestlers. 754 00:40:34,232 --> 00:40:37,193 Food for the eyes They were eye candy back then. 755 00:40:40,488 --> 00:40:44,033 Sable is the protagonist of The pioneering generation of WWE. 756 00:40:44,116 --> 00:40:47,036 She knows exactly what her role is. 757 00:40:48,287 --> 00:40:50,122 Viewers know her as the sexy mother Sable. 758 00:40:50,915 --> 00:40:54,460 But she also showed skills worthy of a sports program. 759 00:40:54,543 --> 00:40:56,963 Which I think her skill has been overlooked. Because it's just plain wrong. 760 00:40:57,046 --> 00:40:59,340 It's not acceptable. It's not something women should be able to do. 761 00:41:00,967 --> 00:41:03,761 At that time, in the late 90s We have a Jerry Springer show. 762 00:41:04,679 --> 00:41:08,641 Just when you think you've seen it all It's even better than that. 763 00:41:08,724 --> 00:41:10,893 We have such a terrible TV show that we can't take our eyes off. 764 00:41:10,977 --> 00:41:12,561 Howard Stern was very famous. 765 00:41:12,645 --> 00:41:14,897 I want to fuck Bonnie, Jill, and Brandi. 766 00:41:14,981 --> 00:41:18,442 The Attitude Era is a reflection of the world at that time. 767 00:41:20,152 --> 00:41:26,284 Society at that time was more suggestive of sex. And we reflect society in every way. 768 00:41:26,951 --> 00:41:28,202 Some of that... 769 00:41:30,121 --> 00:41:34,792 The Two-Piece Battle should be called that these days. 770 00:41:35,418 --> 00:41:38,296 Back then, that kind of thing was allowed to be broadcast. 771 00:41:39,588 --> 00:41:41,799 Vince McMahon's persona reflects his era. 772 00:41:42,466 --> 00:41:45,886 The difference is His presence is outstanding. 773 00:41:45,970 --> 00:41:48,681 And he was the one promoting this trend. 774 00:41:48,764 --> 00:41:53,561 Instead of challenging or changing or transform it into something else 775 00:41:54,729 --> 00:41:58,566 We follow what we already do. In the entertainment industry, more or less 776 00:41:58,649 --> 00:42:01,068 Many times during the peak 15 minute viewing period 777 00:42:01,610 --> 00:42:04,989 The highest rating of that program It's a time when there are women. 778 00:42:06,032 --> 00:42:09,201 The rating received was higher than the available period. Important matches or very competitive periods 779 00:42:10,745 --> 00:42:12,455 We feel the need to be new and challenging. 780 00:42:12,538 --> 00:42:15,041 Because at that time all TV was like that. 781 00:42:15,124 --> 00:42:17,126 This is a live program. 782 00:42:17,209 --> 00:42:21,130 And it's too late for Vince to stop this. 783 00:42:23,132 --> 00:42:26,761 We always want to please our viewers, so we do. 784 00:42:26,844 --> 00:42:30,681 And of course, it goes a little too far in some cases. 785 00:42:40,232 --> 00:42:42,777 Looking back now We can say it's really crazy. 786 00:42:43,361 --> 00:42:45,613 Or say, "God, I shouldn't have done that." 787 00:42:45,696 --> 00:42:47,865 or "It's very inappropriate" or... 788 00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:50,242 which is true 789 00:42:50,326 --> 00:42:54,622 But who is worse? The person who did that or favorite viewers 790 00:42:54,705 --> 00:42:55,539 I don't know. 791 00:42:57,416 --> 00:42:59,710 Welcome to the Warzone, everyone.

Or come and fight? 801 00:43:23,442 --> 00:43:25,986 After I had a problem with Bret Hart. I came to see Owen. 802 00:43:26,070 --> 00:43:28,239 I said, "Owen, you want to stay with us. 803 00:43:28,322 --> 00:43:30,199 Or do you want to go with Brett?” 804 00:43:30,282 --> 00:43:32,493 He replied, "I want to stay." 805 00:43:32,576 --> 00:43:36,622 It's time for me to do what needs to be done. 806 00:43:37,206 --> 00:43:41,919 And that was being at WWE. 807 00:43:42,545 --> 00:43:48,008 When I went to WCW And Owen stayed. Nothing is the same anymore. 808 00:43:48,092 --> 00:43:49,969 He thinks I'm angry at him. 809 00:43:50,678 --> 00:43:53,097 Actually, I feel more sympathy for Owen. 810 00:43:53,681 --> 00:43:57,351 And felt bad that he was in such a difficult situation. The way I used to be 811 00:43:57,435 --> 00:44:00,229 Owen has nothing to do with me or Vince. 812 00:44:00,312 --> 00:44:01,939 But he had to be the victim. 813 00:44:02,857 --> 00:44:06,277 They are discriminating against the characters he plays. 814 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:10,614 Whenever possible for a long time to take revenge on me 815 00:44:11,574 --> 00:44:15,369 Assuming we pressed Owen's head 816 00:44:15,453 --> 00:44:18,080 Because Bret left.

They didn't come to watch someone die. 872 00:47:33,275 --> 00:47:35,402 And as a businessman, I think 873 00:47:35,486 --> 00:47:38,238 "Okay, let's continue with the show." 874 00:47:38,822 --> 00:47:43,160 First of all, Owen Hart.

And we went out and wrestled. 883 00:48:06,392 --> 00:48:09,269 Trying to show it to this group of viewers who don't even know about it. 884 00:48:09,353 --> 00:48:10,771 While we are very sad 885 00:48:12,356 --> 00:48:14,358 Your business is to entertain. 886 00:48:14,441 --> 00:48:17,069 And you let the entertainment continue. 887 00:48:17,152 --> 00:48:19,196 with Owen's blood Hart is still on stage. 888 00:48:19,279 --> 00:48:21,657 That might be disrespectful.
