I don't understand the hate Brock gets, the man has legitimately been a top level collegiate wrestler, a WWE champion, a UFC heavyweight champ and he had a legitimate shot at joining the NFL. The dude is a legitimate athlete with an absolute champions mindset
Its literally the giga chad in real life
i mean hes one of the most popular people in combat sports history. Not sure theres THAT much hate
as a heel, hate and boo = good. brock played the heel card well
He usually plays a heel
Roids abuse is the only reason he ain't respected the way some people think he should be.
Just for the record, Chael can cover as much pro wrasslin as he wants and I'll click every time.
I dont care what he says he is a huge fan
Damn Straight
Chael’s Drive Thru
True
Pro wrestling is determined bcos death will happen he didn't know that
Brock Lesnar is one of those athletes that we won't truly appreciate until he's gone
For real. Probably won't ever be another Brock
I met him years ago when everyone just assumed that he was a jerk and didn't appreciate fans. And the day that I met him was the day before WrestleMania XX, when after the following night, he wasn't sure whether he was going to actually make it with the Minnesota Vikings (which obviously he didn't, and then became UFC Champion as we all know). I was 12 or 13 at the time, but Brock was EXTREMELY KIND to me after The Rock's Security Guards at the New York City Hilton had basically shoved me to the ground attempting to get his autograph. Brock was acting like a human being, not some massive celebrity (which he absolutely was), and had no problem signing the autograph even though he was on his way out of the hotel with somewhere to go (maybe dinner or something). The difference between Brock and The Rock is that The Rock required security guards to surround him so he wouldn't have to interact with more than a couple of fans (small children and attractive women were the only "fans" he seemed to sign anything for). Brock was by himself, walking through the lobby. No cameras, no fanfare. Nobody covered the fact that this guy was a decent human being after a kid like me just had one of his then-heroes (The Rock) treat him like a piece of trash that just needed to be swept away.
I've appreciated Brock since that day, and have tried my best to correct the record regarding what Brock is REALLY like. His true persona is finally starting to come through on TV, but he was absolutely a sweet, affable man when I really did need a morale boost considering what I'd gone through mere moments before.
Brock Lesnar is a VERY down-to-earth guy.
I like to think he's the closest thing we'll see to actual viking combat 😂
Indeed
I will always have massive respect for Brock. That dude is a pure alpha.
? Anyone can inject testosterone for breakfast lunch and dinner. That's all he has
@@suedenim6590 You just have envy that's all.
@@ZacharyDarkes and a double masters, a 6ft2 physique with a black belt. You dont know me son
@@suedenim6590 And I should care why?
@@ZacharyDarkes you cared enough to speculate on my cognitive framework. So I had 20 seconds to set you straight. I'm not "envious" of a guy with no neck looking at a heart attack at 50. People that are mortgage free, own outright, 6 figs in the bank are that are tall and confident don't possess the inherent cognitive fragility that you do. People have a tendency to judge others by their own failings and fragility. Brock is merely an experiment of "what if we took any guy and just juice him to the gills how would that transfer across?" That's all. It transfers obviously, freakish strength granted but zero gas tank. Slow enough moves to see coming from before you got in the ring. Some he seems to phone in a week before. Its as you'd expect. Its not envy its steroids and growth hormone (which if you ask women, they don't find the look attractive) so no thanks. My ego has never felt the need for roids. Your central nervous system gets way too slow. Sorry I've hurt your feelings. Please don't take that oiled up brock poster down he's still an interesting competitor 👍
You gotta respect the dude, not to many people went from WWE to hardcore heavyweight UFC fights.
Ya it's impressive. He looked great before he got sick, and USADA showed up but I would of loved to see him fight when he was right out of college
i did,.... as a fan of the sports
Ya for real that dude is a monster.
It also helped that he was a NCAA heavyweight champ before going to the wwe
@Sub if you are against Antifa and BLM dis you try drinking?
Currently changing the wrestlemania wiki to make sure that chael is always right
💪
Man, I wish you talked about pro wrestling more, just the fact that you call it "Pro Wrestling" and not just WWE or, god forbid, "sports entertainment" warms my heart. But I guess hearing about it once a year is better than nothing, and also keeps it somewhat special, but still...
And you talked about a lot of stuff I liked too, Stone Cold was great, on both nights, along with KO, and Austin Theory and Pat McAfee (my lord he was awesome) and honestly, Vince too, I had a lot of fun watching them.
Ditto Logan Paul, what a performer. The Jackass match was really fun as well, kudos to Wee Man, with THE BEST bodyslam since Hulk Hogan in Wrestlemania 3 😂 Thank god for Sami Zayn, what a legend (got his own back too, kicked the poor little man square in the face moments after 😂😂).
But the highlight of the weekend was Cody for me, and mostly the way they treated him. If you had told me ahead of time that they would keep his gimmick exactly the same as it was in AEW I would laugh in your face, while secretly hoping they would. Must have felt great for him to have it his way, which we all know is the best way, and it was absolutely epic to watch.
Would love to know what you thought about all that...
Thank god I’m not the only one who refuses to say that sports entertainment bullshit
@Sub if you are against Antifa and BLM all I’ve been watching this year is mid south wrestling from the 80s. Modern wwe does give off cartoon skit show vibes
@@boogieap3617 have you tried japanese wrestling from about the same era? Talking about matches such as Kenta Kobashi vs Mitsuharu Mizawa. Would love to know where that falls in the cartoon-simulated fight spectre in comparison to 90's or even 80's. If you try it let me know what you think. I love that match btw 😅
Edit: ok, maybe not really the same era, but still, cool af, any of them, but i think i saw the 1997 version
Why exactly would sports entertainment or wwe offend you. Whatever it is referred to as it remains entertaining and fun to watch. So..
@@lilchappa9209 yes you're right it isn't really offensive if you refer to it either way. But not referreing to it as just WWE means the person you are talking to understands that there is more to pro wrestling than just wwe which, as a hardcore, i appreciate. As for the sports entertainment part, i mean, it's a corporate term exclusive to wwe, and it reminds me of what they do to the people they hire to wrestle, turning them from pro wrestlers into superstars who do not do the wrestling but, rather, do the "sports entertaining" (i guess). And it sucks most of the time (thank God they didn't change Cody, YET, there's still time for them to fuck him up too, i hope i didnt jinx it). So ye, nothing offensive at the end of the day, just a pet peeve
You got me, Uncle Chael. Convinced me to listen to over 11 minutes of talk about the WWE for about 30 seconds of talk about former UFC fighters.
Not a Clickbait.
Stone Cold is worth talking about. Show some respect.
Interesting point; Stone Cold did use to throw drop kicks and came off the top rope. He reworked his routine after breaking his neck. Kept it on the ground after that. Thats when his career absolutely took off. He adapted to the entertainer youre talking about, but it was just by happenstance that he had to do that
Chael has no clue what he’s talking about. The most basic pro wrestling fan knows this as Stunning Steve.
He was a ring technicians before neck injury...
BUT once Austin had to change his entire style.. that’s when he became a even bigger star..
@@kilminster_9676 once Vince started letting him talk and do his own promos is when he took off. Without the talk he was just another short bald guy. More came to watch him drink beer and flip birds than kick or punch.
@@boduke9428 short bald guy? 6’3 252lbs….
Must’ve never seen a WWE street fight before a SUPLEX on the concrete is a staple of them and Austin taking that bump was awesome to see. Tough SOB.
He also talks smack on stuff on the top rope and he praised Logan Paul and couple other matches
Hahaha. Good point. But Logan Paul probably doesn't know that he is a bit of a dork. Hahaha.
Brock is and always will be a goat
Sorry but hes a dude compared to the Rock and the way he entertains.
One of the greatest wrestling matches of all time was between stone cold and booker T in the grocery store
That was awesome
I remember WWE having 2 night Wrestlemanias for the past 2 years, but if Uncle Chael says otherwise....
He has no clue what he is talking about in this video aside from Lesnar
Never happened
@@jrg5315 you’re slow and you’re the one who has no clue what they’re talking about, chael intentionally get things wrong for people like u to comment more and correct him. Funny how u were so confident in correcting chael only to be destroyed by me. Shame. Anyway chael is a very big pro wrestling fan, he knows what he’s talking about. Do your research
@@jrg5315 yeah but thats the point he is a bit of an outsider that understands the business side
He went back to his Country boy roots and blew up even bigger
Brock cut a tremendous promo on D.C. after he beat Stipe! I couldn't wait for that fight...that never happened.
All the fights we really want rarely happen. Khabib vs Tony , Silva vs GSP Fedor in the UFC. Francis vs Jon is another we probably never get
@@Nick-ui3rh Jones fighting in the heavyweight division in GENERAL is probably something we will never get
Dana didn't offer a deserving amount of money and ruined the fight.
@@relentlessmercy8949 it's gonna happen bro he said he plans to fight in HW this year or early next year. He's gonna get the title shot fight with Francis
@@michael-pg8fi he says a lot of things, I’ll believe he’ll make his return when I see it, like religion. Don’t believe he’ll get a title shot ASAP, he need a title contender fight first or simply “interim”
A lot of people don’t want to hear this, but Brock Lesnar was, is, and probably always will be, the most dominant force we have ever seen in MMA, at any weight class. He was so raw, and yet still just so absolutely dominant.
This was, is, and probably always will be the dumbest thing I’ve heard 😂🤣🤣🤣 I hope your just trying to annoy people with this statement on purpose and I’m too dumb to know but if this is how you really feel idk bud. Don’t get me wrong dude was still nice but in the ufc he is not the most dominant by far
@@Dolphland you in drugs bro just stop you young I been watching Brock Lesnar since 2004, and I was born in 2004
Nah man, Lesnar was the most incomplete megastar athlete in the UFC. The man was mobil, sure, but he had little to zero countering ability, and was prone to gassing out at times. If Lesnar was able to fix those issues and stay in the UFC for a few more yrs to prove himself, that's a strong maybe. But lets face it, the reason why Brock won his fights was his size, the man was huge and knew how to use it to his advantage. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think even Chael himself said the same thing about Brocks collegian wrestling back when he was younger. Dunno if he would've been much if he didn't have that size helping him.
You right I’m too young to understand I guess brodie. Lesnar wouldn’t beat the current champ let alone the greats of the past
Brock a legend
Chael it seemed you were a big fan due to your ability to talk and hype up fights and even do stipulations into the UFC it seemed you understood the wrestling business and implemented it into UFC
19 years for Stone Cold Steve Austin. Was the highlight for me
Pat McAfee was by far the best part of both nights. 👏
I was honestly surprised he was so good like he's been doing it for life
Pat is such a cool dude.
@@oguzhankaya3688 he's living every 12 year old boy in 1999's dream!
I love the way you still show Respect to The Wrestlers/Wrestling Overall! So dope to hear you cover & break down wrestling like you do MMA/Boxing/Combat Sports! Keep up the great work!
when someone caught Chael watching porn0graphy :
“I was into this, but not for the reasons you might think”
😆😆
Logan was pretty impressive at Wrestle mania too
They had a 2 night wrestlemania last year as well.
I actually really like pro wrestling, And! I love mixed marshal arts. I watch and care about them both. WWE and UFC are amazing to me
Am I the only one?? Haha
Your misteaking. Chael is write. I two love marshal arts, your knot the only won.
@@boduke9428 i see what you did there mate😂
Brock Lesnar fought Top 10 UFC Ranked fighters straight up from WWE & he became the UFC heavyweight champion, Thats why he's called the BEAST 🔥
I’m a huge fan of both. Both are great sports with lots of intersectioning history
I want Jones vs Lesnar in UFC so bad
You trying to get Brock killed?
@@andrewkielbasowycz1915 Lesnar would most likely get Jones with his wrestling Jones looked as good has he did because he was a huge light heavyweight he’s always been a small heavyweight and Brock doesn’t suck as bad as people try and act like he only lost to the top guys
@@lukemyers1432 Brock is an athlete. Jon Jones is a murderer.
@@andrewkielbasowycz1915 How would Jones "kill" Lesnar? Don't say striking either, because Jones isn't knocking anyone out.
idk chael, if kevin owens was front row, most people would say "whos the fat guy on camera?" its gotta be a star to get recognized in either scenario and i think the ufc has as many high profile athletes as wwe
Almost at 1 million that's crazyy keep up the grind Chael we all appreciate it‼️💯
I was at the Wrestlemania in Seattle when Brock Lesner climbed the ropes and about broke his neck 😂🤣
I respect the time to time WWE commentary, it's cool to see you talk about other things than fights here and there
Chael to 1 MIL
Uncle Chael is almost there 20k more nephews
Awesome to hear Chael talk about the WWE, you can tell hes a HUGE fan. Chael would of been unreal in the WWE
The way he talked about going up to the top rope convinces me he is a huge fan.
Chael still loves the WWE more than ever. Is it too late to see Chael and the Undertaker put their undefeated streaks on the line, at UFC 300?
Actually the 3rd 2-night WrestleMania.. 1st was in 2020 @Wrestlemania 36. But you're right about everything else you said Uncle Chael💪💪
Brock is the real deal. Amazing athlete.
Chael you gotta mention the cody return I wanted to hear what you thought about that moment from a casual fan perspective, I'm a big fan so it was huge for me but I was wondering if it seemed like a big moment for the normal viewer
How can you not love a big beastly Viking like Brock. Who truly lives up to his appearance
Great take by Chael on Wrestlemania. I'd love to hear him and Jim Cornette talk about pro wrestling.
Chael as always being absolutely wrong and absolutely right about his wwe facts at the same time. Undefeated and undisputed 💪🏻
Vince took the idea from New Japan Pro Wrestling's Wrestle Kingdom.
Dana took IFW from New Japan's G1 Climax concept.
Yeah I really enjoyed The Charlotte vs Rhonda match on Saturday night. It would be nice to see a 2 Day UFC event .
They only started doing two night Manias because of the pandemic when they weren't allowed to house an audience. They've carried that on and it's better for the talent because there were points where matches had to be cut from the card from lack of air time. And in recent years, the entire event was like 6 hours long so breaking it into two separate nights makes it easier on the audience.
The two night idea was copied from New Japan Pro Wrestling. Their annual January 4th Tokyo Dome in 2020 still had the usual attendance numbers. WWE only made the change to two nights and strictly personnel on March 12th.
As a fan of both wwe and ufc I like to hear chaels take on both
He is 10000% right, the biggest draws in the history of the WWE, Hogan, Rock, Austin, Cena & Brock. All have about 4 moves each, they made every match look like a fight, they kept it simple & they drew millions.. making a wrestling match look like a real fight is soo much better than the 354 superkicks & high spots in every match. Chael is speaking facts..
And pro wrestlers who actually LOOK like pro wrestlers as opposed to the guy next doors which many do these days
Wwe fans missing a huge opportunity to chant, “head movement” during Ronda‘s matches.
New Japan Pro Wrestling made their biggest show "Wrestle Kingdom" a two-night event a few years ago. That's where WWE got the idea for a two-night wrestlemania if I'm not mistaken. For a number of years WWE has been running a big show featuring their developmental brand before Wrestlemania and other major PPVs. Thus, I don't think international fight week was the inspiration.
are you serious? How can you be so out of touch? Well ... You and Chael...
Wrestlemania 4 was two days... nothing new!!
Wasn't able to find a source that said WM4 was two days. Could you post a link?
The people whining about fighter pay need to take a look at how the WWE does it, which is a solid explanation as to how the UFC works... Vince and Dana GIVE YOU A PLATFORM FOR SUCCESS, it is UP TO THE INDIVIDUAL, TO MARKET THEMSELVES. That is how you make money as an ENTERTAINER.
Professional fighting isn't a career, its a high-stakes hobby that can make you some money on the way.
So why does Dana not allow the fighters to advertise like they used to? If it's just a platform why restrict them?
@@chiquita683 Who is being restricted? Covington? Suga Sean? Paddy? Was Conor restricted?
Bruh horrible comparison. Ufc fights are not just entertaining they’re literally gambling with their lives in the octagon. Sure WWE wrestles can get get hurt but they aren’t taking elbow and knees to the skull. They should pay all ufc fighters a minimum amount to cover camp and hospital fees.
@@andrewkielbasowycz1915 Fighters cant wear sponsors during a fight
@@mariomontoya318 You mean like Big E who just had his neck broken from a belly-to-belly overhead suplex and will likely never wrestle again?
As brock Lesnar almost broke his neck from jumping off the top rope hahaha
As a fan of both the UFC and WWE I find this refreshing that you talked about WWE here
Uncle Chael went from Bad Guy Inc to Straight up Dad Shoes
Look at those shoes! Uncle Chael!
Last year was also 2 WrestleMania days Uncle Chael. :)
I will always respect Vince for what he did for wrestling but we didn't expect much out of Vince due to his age alone we had a good time and was entertained
I watched Kenny Omega vs Okada and that made me realize how good wrestling could be
Even non fans I've had watch any of those 3 match were blown away
CHAEL actually got his WWE review spot on!
Chael actually understands pro wrestling perfectly
Does he though? Another guy up in the comments was saying the opposite, which is it? Seems genuine to me but I was never that into Wrestling until recently. I watched Vale Tudo in the 90s and Pride, but never anything big at the time like WWF.
It doesn't seem all that hard to grasp though, they took the showbiz element of pop music and applied it to wrestling. Seems like a solid formula.
@@DailyCorvid he understands the concept of getting yourself over and that even though it's a work, pro wrestling is supposed to emulate a real athletic competition, not some ballet where everyone stands around waiting for their opponents to land their high spots. He seems to grasp that more than people currently in the business
But what do you expect from one of the best promos in MMA history
Guy: I haven't really been watching pro wrestling too much since like 6th grade.
Also guy: talks about every facial expressions and body movement of all his favorite WWE stars for 12 minutes.
Hahahahaha! 👍👍
I already see survivor series starring Chael P Sonnen The P stands for Goat taking on 7 guys suplexing all of them judo chopping the other !!!
If Chael never fights in the WWE it’ll be the biggest missed opportunity in this business ever
He was supposed to debut in 2014(3?) but the deal fell apart for some reason.
The stone cold return was goat level amazing
Thanks for speaking on WWE...u watch att on Aew? What do you think of that product?
WWE doing back to back wrestlemanias isn't from the UFC. The idea came from New Japan Pro Wrestling who does their equivalent of wrestlemania called Wrestle Kingdom.
the fact stone cold came out for both nights literally made my week but tbh as soon as i seen vince take the coat off i knew austin 3:16 was gonna open a can of whoopass on him lmao anyone else agree
Would love to hear some of your favorite matches in wwe/f chael
that moment when you realize that thee ufc can share the same conversation as pro wrestling and Garth Brooks
I love when Chael talks Pro Wrastlin ❤️
i would LOVE to watch brock fight again. hes 43, dont know if he wants to, but it was cool when he did.
Me and my kids love watching brock . A man mountain.. from England 🏴
*me thinking of stone cold’s second rope forearm drop
Chael: 5:18
Wish Uncle Chael paid some tribute to THE UNDERTAKER. The greatest character of all time.
I relate, I get more wrestling from youtube with Corny and Conrad than I really need from the WWE.
I hear what your saying around the 5:30 mark. However. Find time to watch rey mysterio jr vs cody rhodes wrestlemania 27. Just a beautiful match for the ages
Wrestlemania has been on two days for quite a few years because it used to be a six hour show and that was just ridiculous so they broke it up in the two days. how did you not know that?
Pat had a hell of a night
Chael 3:16 said i whooped your ass! Exhibition,octagon 3 five minute rounds,Coors light tears Austin!
I have been trying to get into prog wrestling but just can't anymore. I was a huge fan back around 2004 - 2012 era but something happened and that was also the time I got into MMA. I still appreciate the in ring actions, although it can get corny at times, but its the story line that bothers me. Some are just soo corny and uninteresting. Especially when they doubled down on not cursing because of kids. I am mostly talking about WWE here. I know AEW and TNA are/were good.
I’d recommend uncle Chael go watch some Timothy thatcher matches since that’s the kind of wrestling you like
Uncle Chael i love you man. I always listen to your cnc-accuracy predictions and elegant pronunciations of fighters’ names, but your criticisms and praises for wwe are incoherent. A fight that is choreographed to look like a real fight is bland, and fans will just opt to watch real fighting or mma. Wwe is supposed to be watched with suspension of disbelief, unless you think it’s real, with which you expect to see moves that are non-replicable in real fights. I agree that too much of flips can devalue wrestling moves, but in moderation and with proper storytelling the suplexes, flips, stunners, cutters, chops, superkicks, dives and so on are really good. Those who dislike them can tune in to ufc, one, bellator or Chael’s fight championship. DC thinks so too.
Roman vs Chael
Next wrestlemania, I'm here for it
New character is a hit well done brock never new u had in u loving it
Great video, though I wonder what Jim Cornette would think of some of these opinions. I tend to agree with you on most of this, though, just to be clear and thank you for the wonderful content.
"dropkicks are for nerds" - GOAT, 2022
I enjoy both ufc and wwe
Ronda isn’t liked any fan base, WWE fans dislike her just as much as UFC. Everyone has been over it since 2015
Stone Cold had been out 19 years LOL come on Bad Guy. Get it right.
“Know if your going up those ropes, your a bit of a dork” -Chael Sonnen 🤣🤣🤣
*you're
*you're
I always just assumed the UFC would get big enough to play multiple shows in multiple cities/countries every Saturday night.
I only watch for Shawn Michaels. He's the true G.O.A.T. HBK!! HBK!! HBK!!
Fuck I enjoy ur shows and the way u express ur views
Pro wrestling was awesome when I was a teenager
Bt not now 🥴
"if you go to the top rope you're a nerd." Incredible lmao
... a bit of a dork.
Chael, Wrestlemania has been 2 nights at least the last 3 years LOL
the business gems
Fun fact, Stone Cold did a dropkick once. Got about two feet off the ground, botched it horribly, looked like a fool, never tried it again.
Brock is my fuckin guy. Solely because I love my state and we share that love. I started lifting because of that dude
Cheal , the back to back wrestlemanias started in 2020 during the pandemic , not 2022.
Vince has been doung3 double shows since the Hogan/St. Slaughter Era in the 80's
[With house show's]
Coach Chael they did it 3 years in a row now 😂 since the pandemic
You're wrong, Chael. Macho Man's elbow off the top rope was majestic. There was almost a hesitation mid air, which defies the laws of physics. He's the best.
All the Slim Jim's he ate also had something to do with that beautiful elbow drop.
