Hogan is why wrestlers dont get creative control
HHH has creative control.
Studa Baker he shouldn't, he's no hulk Hogan, HHH has never drew any money his entire life and never will, I've never heard anyone say I can't wait to see the triple h match.
@@dusteedawg2915 so NXT never made any money?
Undertaker Has Complete Control Over His Character And As Such He Could Make Alterations To His Gimmick As He Sees Fit
Jeff Bellefontaine, In fact NXT lost more than 30 millon dollars so
1a. CM Punk wants his WWE Ice Cream bars
New day got theirs.
Cm punk shoves them up his and then eats it
He’d have stayed if they gave him his fucking ice cream bars
Lol. This was kayfabe

25% gross is insane. No wonder a company goes under when one guy is taking 25% of the profit.
And 50 percent of Pay Per Views. Thats crazy
Kenneth Mcintire 15%
It was only 25% of any increased ticket sales/ratings. So if they only sold 50k PPV one year but the next they sold 60k then he got 25% of the 10k added views etc.
Ay, Hulk Hogan WAS pro wrestling at the time. When WCW got Hogan, they took over. It was worth it.
to be fair he was the biggest wrestler on the planet at the time
11. The Bellas asking to wrestle.
12 having the bellas appear on TV
14. Roman Reigns
John Cena Sucks..... John Cena Sucks
Briiiiiii mooooooode!!!
Especially after Brie legit knocked Liv Morgan TF out tonight. That was bad to watch. I hope she's alright bc Liv is way under-utilized.
Hogan: I want a cut of Nitro sales, brother!
WCW: (Gives tickets away) Sure, Hulk.
The comments are way better then the vid.
Flights and hotel should be paid for by the company.
That's what I always thought..Its not a normal job where it's in your state, so I would assume also that the company would pay for road travel
Such a coincedent my password is FAHSBPFBTC plus I do not remember it I wrote it on a paper
BIATCH HATERS
Awais Khan you forgot to put an I in the scrambled word
Yeah because the hundreds of thousands of dollars in pay each year isn't enough. Some make millions. They should pay for their own travel expenses.
@@subzero8679 Only about FIVE wrestlers make millions, and that's for a short time.
Most barely clear minimum wage for the time they put in, and no benefits.
They usually drop out with injuries and go back to grunt-work. Didn't you see "The Wrestler" with Mickey Rourke? That was a docu-drama about various pro wrestlers including Jake Roberts.
So Bret Hart is a bad guy just because he didn't want to lose to Shawn Michaels, but Shawn gets a pass for refusing to lose to anyone
Basically.. Said seeing Bret was by far the better worker and didnt have to flop around the ring all night to get a reaction
Did you miss the time when Undertaker threatened to beat up Shawn, if he refused to lose properly?
Bret was going to put Shawn over at Survivor Series. But then Shawn said he wouldn’t do the same if the roles were reversed. And he basically said it on 2 different occasions. Ofc if I was Bret I would be pissed and refuse to drop the belt to Shawn after that.
If its really bret fault vince wouldnt let bret punch him and take it as a man. And thank god for the DVD coz who knows what the WWE would have spin this on and make bret looked like shit
They actually began work on the anti-Bret DVD before he agreed to work with them. People like Lawler supposedly did interviews bashing Bret.
Hotel and travel (as well as health coverage) should be covered by the WWE. They are employees, not independent contractors (no matter what they are classified as legally).
Yeah it's not like WWE is in debts they're making millions and soon billions!
He said no matter, not that it doesn't matter, and yeah it does, but they don't really have the freedom to work elsewhere... And in that regard, even Rybacks idea of equal pay, is not completely crazy, as they are puppets, that have little to no say in what they do, or how they are used...
Um, they are independent contractors. That's why they have, you know, contracts. This isn't 1980 where wrestlers, especially the mid to low carders, were making peanuts compared to today. These guys can pay for their own travel, expenses, and health coverage(all of which would be tax deductible).
They can negotiate stuff into their contracts but if the offer they receive isn't satisfactory then they're free to go look for work elsewhere.
@@Rockhound6165 For sure they can, after they've already made it big... Let's take Strowman for example and his 250k a year contract... He's definitely one of the main attractions today, but gets pretty much nothing, cos at the time contract was negotiated, he had nothing to negotiate with. And let's be honest, he did not get over cos of WWE booking, but in spite of it!
Simon Miller: Always demanded to give Brie's Theme song a down
I'm not defending Ryback, but this is a very watered down version of his complaint. What he was reported to have said is that because wrestlers don't have the power to determine their wins and losses or where they are on the card, that it's not fair to be paid based on that. He wanted lower card guys to be have a fairer salary as they're putting their bodies on the line the same as the headliners.
Exactly
But ultimately, this is nonsense. Wrestlers should have higher pay because they don't determine where they are on the card? Go into work tomorrow and tell your boss you should make more money because you don't get to determine what job you get to do. Go ahead, try.
Contracts are negotiated, guys lower on the card make less money (which is still higher than they used to make in the early 90s), guys higher on the card make more. You think Shawn Michaels made the same money in 1997 that he made in 1990? Of course not.
Daniel Fraley Okay, but in my job I'm not being thrown around and risking not being able to walk when I'm older. Are you saying that because you can't get a raise in your day to day life then Ryback shouldn't point out an unfair pay issue? Lower and upper card guys are positioned for a variety of reasons, but one of them is promoters make the call who wins and looks stronger. Ryback said that it's not fair to be paid less because someone else decides he's lower on the card when he's taking the same damage and risks everyone else is.
But if Zack Ryder and Roman Reigns both went down with an inury at the same time, which one do you think would have a bigger impact on shows/angles/pay per views? That alone shows a disparity between talents.
Same reason LeBron James and some lesser known guard don't make the same money. "But they both play the same game". See how it sounds in context?
Daniel Fraley But this isn't a real sport. It's fixed. A booker/promoter has decided Roman Reigns is more important than Zack Ryder. And now Roman's a millionaire because of that choice even though Ryder is putting his body on the line the same. You can make as many sport or real world comparisons as you like but wrestling is the only one that DECIDES who wins and loses which is why Ryback was upset. Have Ryder go over Undertaker at Wrestlemania and suddenly he's just as important as Reigns and because of this decision is suddenly being paid so very much more. That's what is not fair, his salary is at the whim of other people.
Read the title and first thing I thought was “Hulk Hogan is probably gonna be on here for at least 9/10 of these” lol
Ralphus was the hero we needed, but not the one we deserved.
Ralphus was a God among men. The terror he brought to WCW in the late 90's would later be inspiration to todays horror films.
Ralphus was pure main event caliber. I do not see how he got skipped over. I have read he was in romantic relationships with all the Nitro Girls.
The women love ralphus. He was the pimp daddy of wcw. When Ralphus walked down the isle panties and room keys rained down. ..
Bret didnt refuse to lose anywhere in Canada. Only in his hometown, in front of friends and family, to a guy who openly said that hed never drop the belt to Brett. Thats not insane.
The Internet Wrestling community doesn't like listening to logic. Only their sheep mentality opinions
But Bret said he would drop the belt to anyone anywhere just not that night in Canada..but people "WWE" twisted it around to make it seem that Bret refused to lose in Canada just cause it was his hometown...whish is b.s. cause Bret has said multiple times that the reason why he refused was cause hbk said that he would never put him over..
@brypete 1021
Except Bret didn't refuse to lose to Shawn Michaels in his hometown because Bret's hometown is Calgary, Alberta and Survivor Series 1997 took in place Montreal, Quebec. And if you're thinking of the Canadian Stampede PPV that did take place in Bret's hometown, there was no refusal to lose to Shawn there either because Bret wasn't facing Shawn at that PPV; Hell, Shawn wasn't even booked for that Canadian Stampede PPV.
As you rightfully pointed out, Bret's refusal to lose to Shawn had nothing to do with the fact that it was in Canada and everything to do with the fact that Shawn was just being Shawn.
THANK YOU! You took the words out of my mouth! People are selective to what they want to know about the screw job. Bret is definitely more honest about that situation than HBK. HBK didn't tell the truth about knowing all along til 2002

Hi everyone. Just to stop any confusion, this video is based on our article whatculture.com/wwe/10-most-insane-demands-wrestlers-ever-made which was written on August 4th. Thanks and enjoy!
Eric Bischoff just recently said on 83-Weeks that the payment for Lanny came out of Randy's Contract when they were renegotiating his deal. The money that was paid to Lanny came Directly from Randy's salary. So really it was Randy looking out for Lanny, not WCW paying for someone who didn't wrestle.
Randy was always about family. I've never heard anything about him beyond what a genuinely sweet person he was
Apparently when Randy got his Break in WWF at the time the first thing he did was ask if they would give Lanny a job
@Danny Isambard ooohh yeah
Cause he never lied about anything ever
Stephanie should have stayed with the macho man, Triple H could never be the man he was
RALHPUS! RALPHUS! RALPHUS! OMG! IT'S OUR HEROIC LORD AND SAVIOR RAAAAAALPHUUUUUUS...!
It's a miracle that WCW didn't go out of business just from Hogan's ridiculous contract.
Was this a Re-upload or did I see this list on a different Pro Wrestling You Tube channel?

There was an AMAZING documenter done on Bret Hart, called Wrestling with Shadows. It goes into detail about a year in a life of Bret, and the Montreal screw job. Love or hate Bret, this doc is a must see.

He was truly a man to be inspired from.

WHAT ABOUT THE ICE CREAM BARS?!?! 😂😂😂😂
Kai BuscusHD WHERE OH WHERE ARE MY ICE CREAM BARS???
Bret Hart is a legend back in the day. He got that Attack Buff when walking the north.
That picture you guys use of that stock girl shrugging her shoulders makes me laugh every time 😂
Nobody at a show in Memphis was confused as to why Jerry Lawler was getting cheered and Bret Hart was getting booed.
Might explain why vince wants heel wrestlers to get booed in their own hometown since this century even though its played out now. 1st time i've seen a heel get cheered in his hometown was Terry Funk in 1989 vs. Scott Hall. Match should be on youtube. It was memorable. And ECW heel wrestlers get cheered in their hometown. Sometimes Ric Flair gets cheers in NC.
Brett's demand makes sense in Canada. There are so few dates in the calendar in Canada and the fans here WANT to see him win here. That is servicing the fans. Otherwise you are going to have a whole arena disappointed that the big Canadian name loses at home. Think of how you feel when your favourite team loses at home? It sucks because thats the game you could see. Even if you aren't a fan of him, which I am not/was no at the time but appreciated him, I still didn't want to see him lose at home. There is absolutely a rivalry between Canada and the USA and it just doesn't make sense to have him lose at home on his final WWF trip north of the boarder.
Wrestlers do their job wherever they are, Bret was just being childish and petty.
@@MorrisseyMuse Bret was not being childish and petty. Bret creative control in his contract which was given to him by Vince McMahon so Bret had the right to refuse losing the belt to Shawn if he didn't want to. Bret would've had no problem dropping the belt to anybody who wasn't Shawn Michaels
Bret Complains because he didn't want to do his job - Childish & Petty.
Dean Ambrose Complains because he didn't want to do his job - Savior of wrestling.
Wrestling fans are weird.
I think Ryback had a point. Not like the matches weren't fixed after all.
But wrestlers don't all bring in the same crowds/cash to their company...
@@MorrisseyMuse True. That really doesn't apply to the argument though.
TaserDellight_
That would be like Larry the Cable Guy asking for Will Smith's salary
Payscale in wrestling should solely be based on DRAWING powerr
Plus if you unionize wrestling, it would also make WWE the ONLY game in the business, and drive the indies out of wrestling. Leaving several wrestlers out of work
EVERY staged event is fixed, that doesn't mean Hulk Hogan got paid the same as Sly Stallone in "Rocky III."
WWE! You don't know me! But if you want me to show up ringside I demand 50.000 USD!
*Rubs hands together exited*
Vince: "Yeah that's what Bret said.... I WANT THE MONEY YOU PROMISED! What a whiner."
I re-watched Survivor Series '95 recently and on the show Vince mentioned the lighting treatment for Goldust and some sort of exit written into his contract which he got but a few weeks later on RAW nothing what happened there ?
The Lawler-WWF/Memphis Bizzaroland angle in 1993 was so ahead of its time. It was awesome to see McMahon and Bret turn bad in Memphis when they were shaking hands and kissing babies all day on national TV from Titan Towers. It was also great to see USWA talent that didn’t go to Connecticut intermingle with the WWF, especially in that territory where everything was turned around. I’ll never forget seeing Vince himself wearing the USWA title Savage took off Lawler!
Losing in Canada wasn't the issue- it was doing the job to Shawn Michaels- whom had told Bret that he would never do the favours for him- that was the problem for Bret. It just so happened that the 1997 Survivor Series was being held in Canada.
As a kid I always got sting and kiss confused 😂
Bret dropped the belt to HBK at WM-12. Shawn refused to return the favor at WM-13; despite Bret offering to drop the belt back to Shawn at SummerSlam later that same year.
Thus Undertaker Getting The Belt At WM-13
Oh man, Simon is the only reason this channel exists still
Did Bret actually said that??? I watched the Wrestling With Shadows documentary and he said it didn't matter if Bret lost in Canada.
It was mostly about Bret didn't want to give the title to Shawn Michaels.
It was dropping the title on such a huge event in Canada, perhaps. He was ready to lose the title to Shawn on Raw the following eve, if I recall Wrestling with Shadows properly
@Bryan Mack wow ... Indeed a tricky situation!
I heard how Bret wanted to end it, in a no-contest, and that would suck.
If I am paying for a PPV (remember there was no Network then, so you paid $50 a pop for a single PPV) you better give me a damn winner, and someone had better go over.
Bret should have just done the job, then he could claim the high moral ground more. But he sunk to HBK's level by refusing to do the job.
Dale Henderson A PPV end in a no contest??? WWE would never do that, would they?
@@dhenderson1810 that sounds familiar. The no contest finish, like a run-in from DX & Hart Foundation members.
Good points.

Best one was the macho Man looking out for his younger brother Lanny. The fact that he sat at home and got paid was an added bonus...
Simon is carrying whatculture on his muscular shoulders
In Eric Bischoff's book "Controversy Creates Cash", Bischoff says that the main reason WCW went under was because they wouldn't do "New Year's Evil" a PPV to be held on Dec 31, 1999, where matches would be bracketed by KISS performing one of their hits.
This list is biased Bret not losing in Canada wasn’t that insane sorry everyone understands Bret’s position
He didn't even really mind losing to Shawn he just didn't want to do in Montreal. He agreed to drop it to him the next week
@@ValSempai it was both actually, he didnt want to lose to Shawn in Montreal.. And i agree with his point of view
It was and deserves to top the list.
+TheJwwinter - How is that an insane demand? If you were there during that era - Bret was a heel in America but a babyface hero in Canada. Shawn outright said he would never put Bret over, and Bret showed up every single day for work and never took a day off for the company. Could not say the same for Shawn. He had contract rights for creative control over his character, so his demand was 100% reasonable. He said he will drop the belt to anyone but Shawn, or he would drop the belt to Shawn anywhere outside of Canada. Sound completely fine to me.
Unggoy Lisser - Because that's like Arnold going to James Cameroon and telling only Kyle should be able to kill him and not Sarah.. Well that doesn't works that way, it happens what James wants to happen. A character does what a character is told to do.
The contract right for creative control is new information to me, if that is true and if the stipulations of the contract were not met, I have to rethink my stance.
In my option, the most surprising part of the Montreal screwjob was that Bret submitted after JUST three seconds in the sharpshooter.
BAH GOD! THAT'S GOTTA BE RALPHUS! THAT'S GOTTA BE RALPHUS!
Bret not wanting to lose in his own country isn’t even that insane. He’s the greatest Canadian in-ring entertainer of all time and inarguably the overall best technical wrestler of all time. Have him lose in the US, not Canada
Derrick Likes NBA he was leaving anyways so i don’t understand why it’s such a hard pill to swallow it’s the guys last request. They screwed Bret that’s it.
Don't get me wrong, Bret is an all time great but he's not the best technical wrestler of all time. However I think that his request of not droping the WWF belt in Canada to Micheals is understandable
Eh. Just listen to Jim Cornette's shoot on it.
If an American wrestler said that everyone would think there crazy.
@@twilightabsol4346 It's not Crazy for Bret because WWE only works in Canada for like 5% of the time.
90% of the time WWE was in the United States. Which is why it's crazy for an American to ask that.
11. Cm Punk asking for main event of wrestlemania
Even with those crazy demands Hogan Nash and razor were the best thing to happen to wcw. The real downfall was letting the nwo gig get way out of hand. Different factions with way to many members along with way too much creative control. If they just kept it as Hogan and the outsiders with a few new additions to bulk up ranks I belive wcw could of lasted a little longer.
A non-wrestling fan would know that Hogan would be on this list.
Well presented
CM Punk demands WWE icecream bars
Ay, I'm not mad at Ralfus at all. Showing up to see if he's needed is just taking initiative. If the guy was a trucker, he couldn't be available to be on tv AND drive across the country. If you want him available for tv, you gotta pay him enough to stop trucking...which is exactly 75000 bucks plus travel.
5:45 Hogan held the WCW title for 15 months, and then had to go with some weird doublecross and disqualification loss to The Giant in order to lose the title. Then he didn't even get eliminated from World War 3 and pretty much ruined Macho Man's big title win. 15 months as undefeated champion and he can't even let Randy Savage have 30 seconds of glory in a battle royal. Hogan never returned the favor of Wrestlemania 5, but was definitely willing to let WCW spend $1million on a rematch so he could win over the Warrior...
It was merchandise bischoff explained that Simmons had such a insane amount of merchandise it made sense
The way he said wcw (dubya see dubya) haha
How is Ralphus wanting a real contract so crazy?
Because besides walking to the ring with Chris and standing there he did nothing
He was on weekly television and big part of Jerichos act
He did what a manager does who has a contract so why not
@@ghw1985 exactly and considering he did get a paying contract how was this a bad move on his part?
The captions at 2:29 “even though this was wheelchair midget wrestling”
Honestly, Hogan's WCW deal could be considered god tier, I mean just with the 25% of the gate for basically every show is genius, not to mention you get to decide what happens when you go out for a match or promo, and the $2 million for just saying you're staying
Saying “Bret won’t lose to Shawn Michaels” is wrong. He put Shawn over in the iron man match. He simply didn’t want to lose to him in his hometown in Canada.
Also, Bret is the goat.
I could imagine u join WWE as Johnny Sins XD
That Pixabay girl in the blue shirt should be an official member of your team by now.
It’s really easy to hate in Ryan I but you have to admit the equal pay thing is honestly pretty nice

Roman: I want to keep the Universe title until 2025
"Oh that was gonna happen anyways"
The letter warrior sent was 7 weeks before summerslam. Vince could have said no and fired him then change the main event
Hulk deserved that contract
I thought you guys knew what you were talking to, "Won't lose in Canada" wasn't the issue. The last match Bret had at a Toronto house show. It was Shawn Michaels disrespectful comments that started the trouble. Losing in Canada was a minor concern because of the move to WCW.
I didn’t get a ralphus 8X10 and now I realize I’m missing something in life.
number 3 isn't true. Warrior didn't hold vince up for money at summerslam 1991. You need to research before making the video. He didn't want the money at summerslam. He wrote that letter 7 weeks before summerslam and vince agreed to everything. Then at summerslam he told everyone warrior just held him up, would pay him but fire him after the match. He wasn't forced to pay him at the event as that's not when warrior wanted more money. Vince could have easily said no and changed the main event just like he did the following year
Mr. DEEDS: If u wrestled worst can we pay you less?
RYBACK: HELL NO
(Deeds gives Ryback a look)
RYBACK: I mean....No
Atm eric prolly agreed 2 1000 crazy demands BROTHER !!!!!!
we all know it was more "won't lose to Shawn" than Canada
We don't 100% "know" either way although from what Bret stated he did not want to drop the title where he grew up.
bret had creative control of his character during those last several months in 97. what part of that dont ppl understand?
He not only did he refuse to lose in Canada but he also refused to lose to Shawn Michaels.
When he knows the difference between a bass guitar and electric guitar 😀
Simon Miller you are awesome and you should have a bigger role on whatculture
I don't think #2 should be on the list because that's not specific to Lesnar (although he benefits from it) that also benefits Triple H, Vince McMahon, Undertaker and other part-time performers who could (and might) take advantage of not having to worry about testing.
at the same time if a given Wrestler only works 4 matches a year (and maybe does a hand full of appearances to promote said dates, how would WWE realistically monitor them?
- set the test Date too close to the Event and you risk a 'card subject to change'...
- set the test too early and you're controlling their life away from work
- Scheduling a Test in the first place essentially negates the randomness
and in the case of point 2, do you really want that slippery slope to end at the door of your Work Place (imagine having to take a Breathalyzer on Friday Night to 'Prove' you'll show up Sober on Monday Morning at a Temp Job?)
and how would an all inclusive policy affect guys like Rock or Foley who make non-wrestling appearances
Tim Janssen I don’t agree with the policy, but what I‘m saying is that this isn’t a Brock Lesnar perk. This is a part-timers perk. Triple H definitely isn’t getting tested and neither is Vince. Brock Lesnar was just the guy caught on something and WWE had to publicly admit what their policy was. If USADA hadn’t caught Lesnar, that provision would still be in the Wellness Policy, but few would probably know about it.
not disputing Brock's "innocence"... simply providing a plausible justification for the Loophole (even if the real reason it was written in if for personal gain for HHH & VKM)
@thekydragon
correction: number 2 should definitely be on that list because lesnar is a piece of shit that thinks he's the exception to everything.
@@@TJ52359
you should dispute Brock's "innocence". he's nothing but an overrated overpaid asshole with no accountability in WWE. They need to stop letting him get away with shit and make him pay for his actions like UFC did. otherwise WWE's Wellness Policy is nothing but a damn joke.
I did not in any way need to know these facts, but I'm glad I do now, I guess...
No John Cena? Huh??
Cena has lost big title matches several times.
geez.how many times was warrior suspended?
It says something really sad about this profession that among the things that are listed as irrationally crazy asks include travel expenses and equal pay for equal work, not even mentioning dreaded things like time off or hazard pay or insurance.
0:41? Lol
To think about it. We criticize the hell outta lesnar for that but if we had an offer like that from our bosses wed take it in a heart beat
Just because we'd all take that sweet deal doesn't mean we have to be entertained when they trot him out for his 100th lazy suplex exhibition. He's making money on his name alone, but it's boring and has gone on way too long.
Young Jerry Lawler looks like JonTron
Take this with a grain of salt, but Eric Bischoff said on his podcast that Hall and Nash didn’t have favored nations contracts.
He says that, but Hall and Nash are very detailed in how it worked, even saying they waved it when Bret Hart got signed. It's a very specific thing to just make up, so I'm not believing Bischoff on this.
Love the WWE. But they need to bring back the US tag team championship
Ralphus deserved his contract. Ralphus was more over than some of the wcw roster at that time...
"that's what she said" popped right up in my brain "that's what she said" lol and then there was Michael Scott Wow 😂😂
"Bret didn't want to lose in Canada" is probably the popular version of what happened. Bret's version is that he didn't want to lose to Shawn Michaels, especially not in Canada. I don't think it was necessarily selfish, I mean what Canadian fan wanted to see a guy like Shawn beat Bret in Canada?
It wasn't that Bret Hard refused to lose in Canada, he refused to give the title to Shawn Michaels because Michaels refused to put Bret over, despite the fact that Hart, in an effort to make peace, went to Shawn and told him that if Vince wanted Bret to put him over he would do it, and Shawn flat out refused to do the same for him. Learn some history.
Shawn Gets Threatened By Undertaker For Failure Of Doing Such LOL
I think Ryback had a point cause if Vince didn’t want you getting over then you won’t and if you make a name for yourself and they didn’t like it they’ll put an end to it so basically it’s like a job with favoritism!
Is there a video on the times that wrestling redid the Montreal screwjob? If not that would be great
The funniest part of Randy and Lanny was Lanny was the better wrestler by "leaps "and bounds
I'm Canadian so of course I'm a fan of Bret Hart (Owens better) but I don't know what the big deal was about Bret losing in Montreal. Like Canadians lose all the time in their hometowns and brets not even from Montreal. DiBiase said it best "it shouldn't matter where you lose a match)
3:57 "The big guy said to the boss that everyone on the card should be paid the same, regardless of whether they won or whether they lost."

One demand that a certain wrestler didn't made (we fans sure did) was not to waste AJ Styles when he comes to main roster. Thankfully , for a change , he wasn't wasted.
Hall and Nash are kind of pricks for creating that pay ceiling for anyone else.
