The REAL conspiracy is WHY was Kane even in a first blood match? How can you make him bleed?
That’s the point lmao
@@theghostreckon69420 You get it. I can't believe how many people don't.
There was an episode of raw in 1998 where kane was bleeding
Rotfl. You can’t be serious
@@bugsyproductions3140 Deadly Serious.
Some of these myths What Culture helped spread.
yep and now they wanna pretend like they aren't marks and knew all along. theyre "reporting" about some reddit posts LOL ultimate marks
It’s irrelevant
So your saying someone can’t believe a myth and then get corrected with the facts. Then share that knowledge on here. You mean that people can’t be wrong and learn what’s right. Bit delusional really
@@tdsthedevilsadvocate7111 fuckin agreed. I don't see why people aren't allowed to correct their mistakes
Look at all the proof you didn't bother sharing.
WrestleMania 7 or 12 ? Damn it Johnny Sins I mean Simon
Simon You just made the list of botchamania
Glad I wasnt the only one who picked up on that "botch"
OMG lol
Wait. That's not Johnny Sins?
Obvious mistake though. He's probably got it written down as Roman numerals. XII and VII don't look too different.
Here's a myth... Simon used to have hair.
Joooeeey lol can’t imagine him with hair
and he's also Johnny Sinns
That joke my friend gets an up in fact a golden up
I thought that was the old WWE/F belt myself
All bald people had hair at one point in their lives
does anyone else thinks Simon is the only thing keeping WHatculture Wrestling alive??
It's certainly not Adam...weird...pause...Cleary
because the channel consists only of one guy in front of the camera?!
He's carrying this company on his massive shoulders
@Lil LG Totally agree. Adam Cleary is occasionally funny and the others are ok, but just ok. Jules on the other hand is unbearable.
No.
Myth: You can see John Cena and you can smell what the Rock is cooking
"Watch Roman Reigns introduce the Undertaker to his yard" LMAO i cant stop laughing!
Ikr?!! 😂🤣
I remember years ago their was something on CZcams about Kane being multiple people not Glen Jacobs for the entire run.
Cashmaster21, really? I’ve never seen that before. Imagine if that myth is real.🤔
There
Would be pretty hard to find multiple people that big to play Kane.
I remember when they were doing buildup to Summer Slam 98. Kane dressed up like Undertaker, his left arm had tattoos. Glen Jacobs has no tattoos, explain that.
Technically, that claim is true. In the spring of 2006, there was a Kane impostor, dressed in the "classic" pre-2000 Kane costume and stalking the real Kane. It led to the storyline of Kane finally defeating his lookalike nemesis and taking his mask back. The man behind the mask was Drew Hankinson, who later went on to become the "Luke Gallows" character. So Kane WAS multiple people, but WWE never pretended they weren't.
Tna was created cause Vince McMahon rejected Jeff Jarrett when he purchased wcw in 2001
Because Jarrett was a complete douchebag in 99
Which was one of his best ideas to this day. Jarret was, is and always. will be a looser.
And now AEW was created by Cody Rhodes, who has frequently stated that he hated most of his time in WWE (mostly due to the Stardust gimmick he was given and how WWE treated the Rhodes family (Dusty getting underused, Goldust never being anything more than a midcard guy his whole career, and finally not allowing his wife Brandi Rhodes to wrestle))
@@mjstory1976 Jarrett could have no-showed No Mercy 1999 if he wanted to. His contact was up. He was smart when he demanded big money. Vince doesn't like being outsmarted.
Elsa Vargas he didn’t reject him, he fired him
Myth: you can see John Cena
I thought for sure the Randy Savage/Stephanie McMahon "fling" would be on here. I see people talking about that way more than half the myths that made the list.
That was true though
That's not a myth tho
Yeah that plus Kevin Sullivan killed Chris Benoit, the Montreal Screwjob was a work, the original Ultimate Warrior died in a car crash and a lookalike came out at WrestleMania 8 the list goes on
Are we sure she didn't snap into his slim jim?
Haven heard that in 15 years
Orlando..not Miami
Damn so their is more than 1 mistake
They also said it was last year.
I was going to put the same thing smh
They also said last year's wrestlemania last I checked that was in New Orleans
Nah that's a myth. Everyone knows it was Miami. All you have do do is watch this video for confirmation.
Over half of these myths I exclusively have only heard here... as you presented them as facts 😂 embarrassing
No.4 you did nothing to dispel the "myth".
You just said "no he wasn't coz he was good.
That's opinion. Not fact.
@Robert Reitalit was never even legitimately rationalized as to why it was a myth in the first place though.
Before this video I believed Rey only got that push because of Eddie's death. After the video I feel exactly the same way.
GoldenGoose It’s not an opinion that Rey Mysterio was good, that actually is a fact in fact he’s great
@@JoshuaD.Howard but he still most likely got the run cuz of Eddie. Vince would never have put the World HEAVYweight title on a cruiserweight, and the way he was treated after winning the belt (constantly losing to bigger guys like Mark Henry, JBL, etc.) and not winning the title in the main event of Mania despite winning the rumble (this was one of the first times the rumble winner didn't main event mania) further cements that point. Sure Rey is good. Great even, but he wouldn't have gotten the nod if it wasn't for Eddie passing away. Let's be real here.
@@bigc181 beeruswentqueeronusandthegoosegotlooseandyelledizzydizzycusheinthebuttancanthearus.!
@@JoshuaD.Howard No that's still an opinion, not fact. If someone doesn't like Rey Mysterio's matches, they are entitled to that opinion.
Camping World Stadium is in Orlando
@Adam L it's not the name that's the problem he said the wrong location
@69hotdragon Citrus Bowl. Orange Bowl was in Miami.
@@SkipperBobsBreakDowns at least one person on here has gotten it right. Citrus bowl is what is now known as camping world stadium, and if I remember correctly, the name change happened right around the time Mania was in Orlando.
Juat remember this: Roman was in a match so good fans started chanting "You STILL suck" which means rhey acknowledged that he was good, but didn't want to give up the bullshit.
Here's a myth non-fans still seem to believe: Wrestling fans don't know that wrestling in a work.
Yes yes!!!
Non-wrestling fans also seem to not see that their criticism of wrestling being fake, also extends to movies, and TV, particularly "reality" shows.
How could you tell if Kane was busted open? 🤷🏻♂️
he was busted open everyone knew even the commentary but the referee didnt.
Myth: Wrestling is fake.
*It’s still real to me dammit*
😂😂😂
Don't stop believing!
Hold on to that feeling!
yeah real fake LMAO!
its not fake, Just Scripted, as the rock has said many times, the chair shots hurt, going through the tables hurt,
I saw an event in November 2001 where they said there was 25000 of us, the MEN arena only holds about 17000
The Hardcore belt is supposed to be the smashed up WWF belt but I don't think anyone thought it was the actual real belt..
And Hardcore Holly, a consummate professional? Hahahaha.
There's more to this list that's nonsense(Rey's Eddie push was definitely a thing) but those 2 stand out.
Hardcore Holly beat up a "Tough Enough" trainee backstage for real. Real professional?
"Vince Russo was a double agent". Man that's funny 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
But this was a strong myth. That he went to wcw to kill it lol
@Junior Sanchez he was in TNA too. Idk if he was there at all but he did join TNA too lol
If the Hardcore belt was made from the shattered belt, wouldn't it be in more pieces? It was pretty well and truly shattered, but the Hardcore belt looks to be "assembled" from three or four large chunks, like someone took the WWF belt and hit it, once, in the center of the disc.
Miller!!! The Miller man's back. Love it
Vince McMahon may not have sent Russo, but he didn't stop him.
He knew what would happen.
yep, quite possibly. Although. since Vince caused owens death maybe he isnt nearly as smart or clever as sum ppl like to think.
There's no way in hell that Holly didn't sandbag that powerbomb.
That Winged Eagle/Hardcore title was one of my favorite myths.
one myth I believed for many years till a shoot interview proved it wrong once and for all, that Rick Martel actually damage the eye of Jake the Snake Roberts when Rick sprayed Jake with "Arrogance" back in a 1989 segment of "The Brother Love Show".
I remember that! That's why they had that blindfold match at Wrestlemania 7.
The thing I remember most vividly though was Randy Savage attacking Ricky Steampoint with the ring bell and supposedly crushing his larynx. That was intense for a 5 year old.
@@BiggieTrismegistusI was just starting to watch wrestling, and I thought it was real.
Steamboat sold it so well, I thought the stunt went wrong and he was injured for real.
@@dhenderson1810 I thought it was real too. It's one of those things I remember where I was and what I was doing when I saw it. It's that strong a memory for me.
Most of these myths are things you've told us lol
I'm bummed to hear about the Hardcore Belt. I've thought it was the OG Belt since the 24/7 days. Alas, yet another Nail driven into the Coffin of my Youth.
4:40 His match against Big Show was amazing as well
hey Simon, How many channels do you present?
What about the Blue Meany and JBL?
Mahissimo 😂😂😂 every time
Why what happen
Was X-Pac there?
Real
Best friends apparently.
Bob Holly, one of the industry's most notorious hazers both in the locker room and the ring, is a "consummte professional"?
Oh God STFU u pathetic whittle baby
@@midevlegameingshoo1588 why are you blowed?
Holly beat up a "Tough Enough" trainee once.
The RAW after Kane won the title was in Cleveland. I was there curtesy of Mick Foley, a friend of mine. I remember it like yesterday. That was the one time that Mick was in Cleveland, Youngstown, or Pittsburg that Mick couldn’t hang out after or stay at my house because he was hurting so bad from that Hell in a Cell match. Kane also picked a guy up out of the crowed and beat the crap out of him. Rough night for that fan! That’s when Kane was completely jacked and with Mark Henry considered the strongest man in Wrestling. He picked up a 200lbs guy like he was a child then threw him like a rag doll then beat the hell out of him.
The myth that Kerry Von Erich actually played the Ultmate Warrior in Jim Hellwig's absence. The WWE themselves addressed that one PUBLICLY.
A myth wrestling fans never believed:
"Jeff Jarrett drew a dime"
JJ couldn't draw a dime if you gave him a pencil and a picture of FDR
“Industry experts”... shows Meltzer’s mug. I’m in tears over these marks
Camping World Stadium is in Orlando. Other than that, solid video.
Myth: That Tony Khan is a good promoter and knows how to run a wrestling company.
Notice they didn’t put Stephanie and Macho Man on here cuz it’s not a myth
No... they didn't put it on here because it's stupid. Do you think for one second that if that had happened, that Vince wouldn't have taken legal action?
@@brucecallan5024 Is that the same Vince who wanted an angle involving incest wit Stephanie?
@@354allday angle-real life quit being stupid
@@Ckypwnd You're just an idiot who believes the McMahons have morals.
Huh? Stephanie smashed Randy?
I refuse to believe Vince didn’t send Russo to destroy WCW
He did. Same with Bret Hart.
It was already failing.
It wasn't failing until Russo. WCW was by far the superior product for several years.
The _bowl cut_ at 6:08 😂😂😂
Good shout out
I will never NOT believe that the old WWF belt was the Hardcore title.
The only thing worse than stupidity is willful stupidity.
You are wrong then. They are not the same belt.
Paul Bledsoe yes they are search it up
I've fallen asleep on most of Cena's matches because he's that damn Good!
Love that no one rewatches videos before being uploaded for mistakes.
This was a great video
1:12 - WrestleMania SEVEN?
SEVEN? Seriously?
Could have swore Triple H faced Warrior at Wrestlemania 12
Do a video on top 10 custom made belts by the title holder!
I've had issues with how Roman's booked/pushed, but that's more on creative than him. He's still a good wrestler and seems to be a great guy even away from the ring.
Warrior vs Triple H Wrestlemania 7??? Really???
wrestlemania 12 it was supposed to be
Wrestlemania VII (7) was Warrior Vs. Savage in a retirement match. Awesome match sadly everyone involved has since passed. :(
People commonly mistake that match to be the cause of the burial of Triple H, but it wasn't, Warrior did not want to lose to Triple H at the time and put him over, which was a damn shame.
HHH was not wrestling back in the Wrestlemania 7 days LOL
@@Cashmaster21 Sad that Randy, Elizabeth and Sherri are dead for sure.
Myth: Stephanie is perfectly capable of running the WWE.
Triple H does a good job alongside William Regal in NXT, so once Vince steps down, we might be in a good spot.
@@theamazingcj2748 , as long as Trips is the one really calling the shots and not her.
Bigger Myth: Triple H is perfectly capable of running the WWE.
@@krystallovesclassics508 , Triple H has made better decisions than she ever did, so sorry... facts don't jibe with what you are thinking here.
@@krystallovesclassics508 biggest myth: your comment is accurate
How could you ever think that Mysterio wouldn’t get to the ring he got? The man has so much experience in the Luchadoras way before he ever came to WWE. That’s preposterous to think he wasn’t that good
Me watching the beginning of Whatculture videos "Please be Simon, don't be Wilbourn or Andy Murray"
4:46 for many years I actually thought that the hardcore championship was actually the old WWE/WWF old school federation era championship
Here's a myth, HHH, Stone Cold, The Rock, Undertaker and Shawn Michael's used to have hair
Here's a fact: Shawn Michaels has no apostrophe in his name.
@@0ldFrittenfetthere's a myth, I'm only human
@Roger Smith teach me your ways!!!!
Taker still has his hair right
Pretty sure but it's almost gone^_^
Actually the hardcore title WAS the Wrestlemania 5 belt that they smashed up on live TV (Hennig & Poffo), which was then used for the first WWF hardcore title as if you look at the title strap, it's not got paint spills on it like the other hardcore titles because that was actually given to Foley on raw (who said that he had to take the title back to Stephanie to get it fixed because Dewey at the time removed all of the duct tape and everything fell off of it) and the "newer" hardcore title was a replica winged eagle belt that they smashed up to make it look like the hardcore title that Foley was awarded on Raw before Survivor Series '98, and then the "older" hardcore title was sold online via an auction hence why as I said before, you don't see the actual paint stains on the title belt strap.
I love this channel these guys are the best! My ADD notices dumb shit tho I think he referred to it as wrestlemania 7 at one point by accident for triple h and ultimate warrior. Not that it matters at all lmao. Simon you are the man and head slap champion!!
1. The Blue Meenie being punched isn't a shoot
Yes it was a shoot
The Hardcore Champion Belt Is One Of MY Favorites. It’s Definitely Valuable.
A first blood match is a very easy way to make a champ lose their title without looking weak in any way. They can’t help it if they bleed and if the rules were different it might not have ended this way
Simon makes me believe in a positive future.
Simon is the best, Simon number one!
Yeah Roman Reigns is a great wrestler, he can spear people, and he can superman punch them and he can...he can...he can superman punch them AGAIN.
Truly one of the greats.
that is another myth Roman only does 2/3- moves
there's more to wrestling than just moves lol
So have you only seen the finishes of his matches? Is that why people think he's so bad, because they only see the part where he wins and skips the rest?
@@MinimiMax Yeah. Because he's boring.
@@conradkellog926 Yeah, except he can't do any of those things either. He still gets gassed after about 5 minutes.
Regarding #2 there's also the fact that WWF during Russo's time as booker was a hyperactive trainwreck and we're remembering it through rose-colored glasses, and Russo did the same stuff in TNA.
better than today i assure you i was there i experienced it because i was alive at the time
All of Russo's worst tendencies were there when he was in WWF but they were held in check by the other creative people. Calling his time in WWF a "hyperactive trainwreck" is looking at things with whatever the hell the opposite of rose-colored glasses are.
Funny how people discredit Russo and say that he was only good in WWE because he had Vince McMahon as a filter.
Vince McMahon is the same guy who rewrites scripts two minutes before RAWs and books terrible shows, whereas when Russo was writer, you had the compelling "Stone Cold" v Mr McMahon feud.
@@dhenderson1810 Someone was clearly filtering Russo if you compare his WWF to his WCW and TNA. Maybe credit should go to Pat Patterson instead of Vince?
However, the idea that Vince was a good filter circa 2000, but senile and incompetent during the last five years or so isn't a contradiction. All talent eventually fades with age, including Vince's. There's also the matter of whose ideas he was filtering. 20-25 years ago Vince wasn't hiring former soap opera writers, and he didn't have sycophants around him.
Whatculture is *so* full of it!
4:10 kinda looks like Trips has an autograph on his elbow band there.
What about the Myth of Vince and Shawn were a Couple? or was that a Joke? Lol
it's true ^ ^
@@barry1185 no it's not you moron
@@garyevans4516 are u jealous of shawn?^^
I think he purposely avoided the myths of bad taste, including murder, death, drugs, sex, cover ups and shit like that
@@barry1185 what's wrong with you
I think the most prolific myth fans still believe is actually the Hardcore belt, is the old smashed up champion belt. Some of these myths I've heard of and some of them I haven't but there is not a single myth I've heard more from other people than where that hardcore belt came from, and maybe there is a lot of fans who know it's not that smashed up belt now, but I bet at least at one time it was at least the most popular one people believed.
I believe it was Orlando's camping world stadium, Miami's is the hard Rock stadium
When the ultimate warrior died in 1991 and was replaced by Kerry von erich.
Oddly enough I remember in 1996 my local newspaper running Ultimate Warrior's obituary and citing the cause of death as a steroid overdose.
Whether Bob Holly was sandbagging Brock or not, he was at many times very unprofessional in the ring and backstage. It's not outside of Buttplug Holly's character to do something to remind a rookie where his place is.
Bob Holly couldn't draw money with a green crayon, so who is he to tell anyone where their place is, you simpleton?
Actually it was the other way around, Brock sandbagged Holly a lot, hence why he "botched" the F-5 and caused Holly to break his neck.
some of this "myths" were presented by WC as "facts" in quite few videos 🤣
I never believed HHH lost at WM 7 to the Warrior as punishment let alone at all Simon
I like how OP often has no evidence to support his claims but we are just supposed to take his word for it lmao
The hardcore title is the winged eagle belt in kayfabe not physically it’s designed he same way with the plates and everything
It was a smashed winged eagle replica after Bossman had won it.
It was a smashed ring used belt but not the one Hennig destroyed.
Heres a myth a lot of fans stupidly believe: Chris Benoit was innocent
Facts!
So if he was how'd they all die? and who left the notes like the one that explains he killed is family and gonna kill himself?
Im not going to say that he is innocent, but I am not going to say he's guilty either. I dont know, I wasnt there.
No one was there, and all the police's evidence is circumstantial.
The police would need more if they had to take it to court.
No-one knows for sure. Besides, there are unanswered questions the police never answered, and one source said that police contaminated evidence at the scene.
Kevin Sullivan had a known gripe with both Chris and Nancy, and Daniel is a product of their love, so Sullivan had motive to take out all three. He was jealous of Benoit's legacy, and tried to destroy it, so he could have framed him. Yet Sullivan was never even interrogated, even if if was to dismiss him as a suspect.
Vince McMahon apparently also could have wanted Benoir out the way, as one anonymous source reports that Benoit blamed Vince for Eddie dying due to the sham Wellness Policy, and he would go to the media and tell them everything. This was two weeks before that weekend. Also, a WWE official supposedly did a welfare check the weekend the Benoits died and called police.
Also, someone edited Nancy's Wiki page to include her death date, eight hours before media and the public were informed of her death, meaning either a police leak, or it was the doer or someone who knew she was dead. Yet police didn't follow this line of inquiry.
I see some myths a few contradictions about the list. Still love ya simon
Well actually you can dispute wwe's live attendance figures if you know how many people it actually holds, because that stadium doesnt hold that many people (according to architectural specifications of the stadium from 1990)
Triple H was beaten by the Warrior at WM 12 not 7.
Camping World Stadium is in Orlando, not Miami.
Double botchamania from Simon
I wonder if the stadium or the CAMPING company would let us camp in their stadium??
Is that the stadium where the Ultimate Warrior squashed Triple H at Wrestlemania 7?
Camping World Stadium is in Orlando, not Miami. Miami has Hard Rock Stadium.
You have to admit that the Hardcore title was made to look like it was the destroyed WWF title
Vince even said he embellishes the attendance numbers for entertainment purposes.
When people say the Hardcore title was the old smashed WWF title they are talking in story line. EVERYONE KNOWS IT'S NOT LITERALLY THE SAME BELT!
No some people are saying that out of storyline. That's why he mentioned the thread on Reddit
The Brock/Bob Holly bit was in one of your videos
69,300 seats in the Citrus bowl, but 75, 400 are in attendance. Meaning 6,100 people over capacity are standing, and causing a fire hazard.
There's no way to know how many fans are in attendance? Ever heard of tickets sold?
Yeah but some people don't go
Ever heard of ticket resellers? People buying whole rows of seats, hiking up prices, and not being able to sell them all
@@jesusbarragan601 I mean from ticket ripping.
@@BranRiffs that's your closest estimate, but even then, who's keeping track of how many tickets were torn in half?
That's why he said unless you're going to count each person 1-by-1
Attendance is not just sales, ever heard of complimentary tickets?
O thank god it's Simon.
Triple H vs Ultimate Warrior happened at WM XII in 1996 not WM VII in 1991
Yea that confused me LOL
Only Bruce Pritchard believes offical WWE attendance figures
Damn. Didn't know in Roman numerals XII equals 7.
X=10, I=1
VII not XII
*XII not VII
I still believe the hardcore title is the WWF title to this day simon
It isnt. The one hennig destroyed was sold to a private collector. The hardcore title was made as a knock to the belt maker.
thank u @@paulbledsoe3392 for that info I needed that
Dave Meltzer says that the Wrestlemania 36 attendance is bogus.
There wasn't 0 people in attendance, there was - 12,000 people.
Didn’t you guys do a video similar to this a few years ago with the other Simon?
Hey I think that the WWE should bring back the WWE Hardcore Championship who ever is the champion will have too put it on the line agisnt RAW or Smackdown Live.
Hardcore isn't pg
@Samuel Giam Sure, but you can't call that title the Hardcore Championship meaning my premise is still correct.
Sadly they won't because of the name.
WWE says "in attendance" which means everyone working for WWE and the venue works, security & off duty police.
Simon your the best bro
When you run out of content that you LITERALLY have to troll around reddit 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Or they were bored and went, "Reddit has good memes" saw a WWE myth and went, "Huh, this is interesting" and dug around until they went, "gasp, FREE CONTENT"
