'Through hellfire and listerine' is my personal highlight here😂
What's hell. Fire and listener
Dude, looking at Minoru Suzuki in his 20’s is like looking at the arc of the covenant.
Great comment
Look at all that hair!!!
love this series. Never smashed the like button so quick.
Cringe sauce 7000
@@daedaethomas47 If you use the word "cringe sauce" unironically, that makes you even more cringe
@@syria0110 do u see the irony here?

"sources have Orndorff as clear winner" lets not forget that Orndorff took down Vader while wearing flip flops
Mr. Wonderful should NEVER be underestimated!
Single handedly if you will
A handicap, if you must.
Rocko Rock was my cousin. I love watching these and hearing y'all yell his name still! He ran Philly and Pauly's promotion lol
Finally I've been waiting for another wrestling timeline video. 1996 & 1997 is gonna be extremely interesting. 95 overall was a bad year for WWF but a successful Kickstart for WCW and ECW
WCW was terrible in 95. WWF was more watchable ngl
Eddie Gilbert not making it to 40 still bums me out almost 30 years later
RIP
Sam, simple correction. Royce Gracie’s named is actually pronounced Hoyce! It’s a common mispronunciation across the board, even within the MMA community! 🤷🏼♂️ great vid and thank you for your hard work, the content is great as always!
Does that mean the luxury car manufacturer is actually Holls Hoyce?
@@jeanpaulsinatra No, it means he's Brazilian.
Rolls Royce isn’t Brazilian
@@jeanpaulsinatra Uneducated white guy comment of the year goes tooooo
as someone who didnt watch wrestling in 1995, this was a great summary
Thank you all for this! Favorite series. Know it takes a lot of research and time to do a video like this. Cultaholic is appreciated! 🙏🏽
I have said this before and will say it again, Sam has the perfect voice for voice overs
1995: the only KotR thus far where the two schoolboys they hired to stand at the top of the stage are bigger wrestling legends than the winner
I started a binge watching journey in January promising myself to watch most of all wwe and wcw content starting in 1995 and since then im at the year 2000 survivor series quite a experience watching this era.
I keep tellin myself i should do something similar and learn some wrestling history. Kudos to you dude 👏
Fantastic job on this video of Timeline 1995 Cultaholic. I can't wait to see Timeline 1996.
97 is gonna be very interesting 👀
I might incorporate 'creme de la crap' into my lexicon after this video.
The Fink wearing that green cap made me laugh way too hard 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I cannot even list my favorite series on this channel. You guys put out incredible work! I love how everyone has their own thing on this channel!
Yassa!
I'm in a rush to get outside now, but I'm having this on in my background 😃 wrestling history is fascinating... especially the progress of women's wrestling
Awesomely well-researched video. Thank you for the time and effort.
Suzuki... with hair? 🤯🤯🤯
It's clear that these can take a very long time to make. But I also hope that you continue to make these timeline videos. Love to see them for most of the early 2000s makes me very nostalgic. I started watching wrestling on July 4th, 2002 and I did not realize that until your timeline video. I knew it was somewhere in that year but I wasn't sure when until I remembered everything that you started talking about after that point
Appreciate the research you do for these. Cant wait for more.
Love these videos was waiting for the next one to drop
This deserves so many more likes views and comments guys. Just to appease the algorithm because this is pure class
Thank you for this. Appreciate the work
Love these, thanks Sam
i absolutely LOVE this,. Im hoping to find other years available in your library which im pretty sure will be found. very clever u guys,. cheers!
Excellent addition to the series, and the channel!
Love these videos. Great work , please do more ❤️
This is a great format. Please continue 🙏
Best series on the channel, thanks for this!
Happy to see this series is back. Can’t wait to see what other years you guys do for this series.
Royce is actually pronounced as "Hoyce" for anyone that is unfamiliar with the man.
I really enjoyed this video. I’d love to see some timeline videos from the golden age of wrestling in the 80s. Those would be some interesting videos.
Krush was severely underrated. Especially when he turned heel in the mid 90s. Could have been a decent opponent for the Undertaker or a heel challenger to Diesel during his run in 94/95.
Good big man for Bret to work against too. Bret always did best when he could build the story with himself at some clear disadvantage.
I’m begging for more of these. I like the mid to late 2000s but I’m willing to wait. Just don’t give up on the series please
Thanks for this because 95 is a underrated year! Now I know business wasn’t all that great in all 3 companies but between Bret Hart, Undertaker, HBK, Goldust, and Mankind work in WWF, Sting, Flair, Savage, Pillaman, and Arn work in WCW and Raven, Shane Douglas, Austin and the introduction to Lucha in ECW 1995 was a great year far as what was on the tv in my opinion. Not everything was great but damn sure 100c better than what we seeing today
*Please do 2003 next 🙏🏽. These are AMAZING.*
Great video guys, loving these timeline videos 🙂
great job as per usual
I watched that UFC event live !!!! When Tank knocked out Matua (in an annihilating crushing fashion ) after the ref stoppage , Matua's arms and legs were sticking straight up in the air convulsing , and Tank mocks him doing the stiff arms like poor Matua was doing on the ground !!! What a bastard !!! HAHAHA !! Track it down if you havnt seen it !
i think this series is great, i think an episode about lockdown would be really intersesting
I do like these deep dives a lot.
This series specifically feels like content i should be paying monthly for. Keep them coming
Wow! I never knew that Taker had a debut match in Pikeville, KY.? This place is so small and unknown, it's very rare to hear anything about my hometown.
Yessss been waiting on a new one
51:20 “the glove don’t fit” 😂😂😂😂 I almost choked on my drink
40:08 Tiny Toons _and_ Batman TAS _AND_ Original Flavour Goldust in one frame.
Be still my beating heart!
This is one of the best series you make. Please keep them going.
Mark
@@daedaethomas47 accurate
@@feltyone takes 1 2 kno 1
These timelines are great....1989, 1984, 1990 and 1994 would be excellent
I really hope we get more of these
That J Cup was awesome ! I played that VHS tape so much it got ate . If you younger fans have any idea of my words here lol !
ECW in 1995 was truly Revolutionary Ravens ECW Debut Ravens Feud with Tommy Dreamer is a classic that Chairshot @ ECW Heatwave 1995 is the craziest Chairshot I've ever seen I'd say ECW was 10X Better than WWF And WCW Combined sabu Returning @ November to remember 1995 was awesome that entire Feud with Taz was perfectly done Paul Heyman was a creative Genius in ECW.
If it wasn't for the ecw revolutionary storylines and anti heros there will never be an attitude era
@@vampirascoffin870 Correct 👍
@@vampirascoffin870 that along with the NWO being born
Wait, so Paul Orndorff legit won a shoot scrap with fkn VADER?! Mr. Wonderful, indeed, damn...
And basically with 1 arm.
Damn I was in 8th grade in 95. What a flashback. I remember alot of the WCW and WWE stuff. The long ago when dirt was just starting to get old. 😂
I was in year 9 (UK) remember being totally disheartened by WM 11. Absolute Dog 💩
Yes. More of these
Discussing about the Monday Night Wars from 95 - 01 episodes would be fun.
I refer u to wrestling bios.
Wow that's a crime about Pedro not being able to attend his own HOF induction!
I remember watching Eddie Gilbert on USWA back when I was a teen.
I'm not sure if you forgot or just didn't want to mention it, but Bash at the Beach also had some footage taped after the show that would be used in an episode of Baywatch.
This is great
This was epic
Love this series
Also like how you incorporated the ufc as well
14:04 "IM FEELING GOOD ABOUT THE ROUND SYSTEM!"
Geez I sure hope one of those titles Dan Severn had was for a FANTASTIC mustache a title which he still has
I love this!! ♡♡
Damn Sam, you can do a good voiceover
Imagine how things would have ended up if Benoit had joined wwe back in 95 and never went to WCW... dang
Yooo, awesome to learn more about wrestling. However, even cooler to learn about the wrestling that took place the year I was born 😁😁😁
That white intercontinental belt is a thing of beauty
17:54 - I always love that the former home of the Hartford Whalers once hosted WrestleMania. [Brass Bonanza intensifies]
PLEASE COME TO OUR GAMES (UrinatingTree would be the one to thank for that reference)
This was great, do you have plans for 1998?
oh, i thought we gotta wait for the start of next year for a new episode
90s rocked in every way
Is that Paul Heyman rant on CZcams? I want to watch that.
23:46 Minoru Suzuki with a full head of hair!?, And looking like a proper stud with it!? No it can't be.
This series is the best ! ... 1995, not so much....although I did have the pleasure of attending a house show that year and seeing the 5 star classic of a match that was Mantaur vs Man Mountain Rock,so there was that I guess
1995 was more about WCW and ECW whearas in the World Wrestling Federation Ratings were extremely down the toilet
I remember listening to Jim Ross' podcast grilling JR with him mentioning that there were too many wrestlers unwilling to lose matches because of how it would look in Japan.
while Tony Shivane calls him "THE YET-TAY" for some god damn reason🤷♂️
oh my fucking god, i'm crying
I know they are a pile of work but I wish we got these more often
At that May 13th show in Boston, Rikishi was double-booked as Kwang and Fatu. Did he do that a lot? I wouldn't think big men would ever work more than one match in a night.
Do a 2006 pro wrestling timeline
1:45 due to Pat Patterson desire to reduce his output into the ringboys 😂
I went to my first ever pay-per-view in 1995 and it was SummerSlam I met Chris candido Tammy Bret Hart Rikishi Duke the dumpster droese and others a ladder matchbetween Shawn Michaels versus Razor Ramon
I thought the 16 bit versions of WM the arcade game came before the PlayStation and Saturn versions, not sure about the 32x but I must be wrong
As someone who attended that mess in-person: my WORD, was Summerslam 95 godawful
Love almost everything about this video and this series........ but....one thing..... its Dan Sevr-an not Dan 7. 😂
Hot damn this awesome 👌
1995 was certainly an … interesting year in wrestling
Steve Austin's first WWF match was against Matt freaking Hardy?!?!?!!!!??
WHAT!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!!???!??
Can you do 2007 next
Ah Yeah! It's the Sheriff and once again he is the cool host with the most history than your local high school teacher, Sam Driver! Let's drive down memory lane with Timeline: 1995! ( My apologies again Sam! I was at work when i was watching and typing this! Stay Awesome good sir and please don't hate me for the R-Truth levels goof up!)
Let's Ride Cowboys! Ya-Hoo!
I really thought the Renegade was the The Ultimate Warrior for a while
32:29 My Birthday!!!!
Me2!!!
Weird year for WWF and WCW, but still (mostly) watchable.
theres a strange whining pitch coming from the video from after the intro to around 15:00, not sure what it is but its disrupting
kinda wild how great 1995 was for everyone not named WWF or WCW.
Noti gang
Timeline from 1997 please
