- This turned out to be one of the craziest video that The Hawk has made in a while. In 2006 Billy Gunn & The Road Dogg decided to relive their New Age Outlaws days from the WWF attitude era. They formed a new tag team called the Voodoo Kin Mafia and they would somehow feud with DX Triple H & Shawn Michaels. The feud involved VPM invading Titan Towers and WWE Raw house shows.

I was actually at that house show in Knoxville 😆 They were literally standing above me while the matches were going on
Many chants? Chaos? Etc
@@Markyd123 I’m 23 now but I was like 7 when this all happened and from what I remember it was pretty chaotic man😂 My dad met John cena that night too cause he randomly sprinted into the crowd and bumped into him then shook his hand
Same here!
This rivalry made no sense because they rejoined WWE years later
That million dollar challenge promo was fire aff though
You know 2 teams truly despise each other once it comes down to a "yo momma" battle.
Yo momma jokes are fighting words in the streets 🤣
Yo mama's so dark, she went to night school and got marked absent.
Im going to be honest that segment got over with me
That’s why the world is so soft today. We stopped doing “Your Momma” jokes.
@luccirobbins6675 Yeah, well, your momma is so dumb she brought a spoon to the super bowl... and the fat one brought cereal.
Dixie freezing the million dollars and expecting WWE to accept is the most TNA thing ever.
It's also the most Dixie thing ever too
The best part of the Alamo deal is that a bunch of fans actually showed up Wednesday at noon, but VKM went on a Saturday to film the skit
Hahahaha Jesus Christ
LOL fans really are stupid
Fun fact: According to Trevor Murdoch, when VKM showed up to that house show, Triple H pulled Cade and Murdoch aside and asked them to wait out in gorilla and watch his back in case VKM jumped the barricade
So, they WERE aware of this. Interesting.
It makes sense. Trip knew them and figured they were so far gone they'd do anything to get some attention from him and WWE
@Cairo Lee He said it on some podcast about 2 years ago
That's actually true BECAUSE I WAS THERE! I was about to whoop everyone and get that F@ck money from Vince & get some 🍝
@@WWFSuperstarVirgil h
I love how triple h doesn’t hold this against them because “they were on drugs”
I mean, have you ever seen people on drugs? It makes them do insane shit.
@@Shlumbus69 I’ve been a person on drugs and I wasn’t being sarcastic. That’s behind them and he’s letting it be. It would kind of be a dick move to hold it against them even after they’ve clearly made a change for the better
That's simultaneously a class act and the most Triple H shit ever
@@Shlumbus69to be fair triple h doesn’t give anyone else a pass bc they were on drugs
Best part about this feud:
“SEE YOU AT THE ALAMO”
“HICKENBOTTOM!”
HIGH NOON
What's funny about this I was on holiday in Spain and tna was on I never seen it before I knew road dogg and the ass man it was in the bar and as a kid I was like what is the alamo why is he calling out hhh and vkm I was so confused

"See ya at the Alamo!"
I found it funny when Booker T acknowledged Bad Ass Billy Gunn being a janitor and said "what happened to you man?! You used to be somebody."
Groundskeeper Billy was unironically one of my favorite things about TNA in 2008.
4:39 "Pirate on Crack" could've been a great gimmick in the attitude era or ECW
Every time "A wild slapnuts appears" i Instantly pop like it's a major return in wrestling 😂 R.I.P Jerry Jarrett
In real time this was entertaining. I didn't realize they were in such bad shape.
I met road dogg and billy Gunn at a show in March last year and I asked road dogg if I could ask him a question off the record and he leaned away from billy and said sure and I asked “looking back at your career, what is your opinion on your time in TNA?” And road dogg said “it was a lot of fun, I got to work with a lot of good talent, Jeff (Jarrett) gave me a chance when no one else would and I’ll always appreciate him for it, but it was a dark point in my life and I was going through a lot of personal problems and I couldn’t contribute as much as I wish I could.” Pretty solid answer and this video makes the whole “dark point in my life” thing make sense. I assumed it must’ve been pills since lots of attitude era stars got hooked on pain pills from injuries
"At least Jim Cornette seems to be enjoying it"......he recently said he HATED it, what a trooper to try and put it over anyways lol.
That nonce hates everything. Well other than watching men ream his pig of a wife
That puts some perspective on how much he hated ICP... watch back those Raw episodes where he was forced to put them over, you could hear the pain in his voice as he said "The crowd seem to like the Insane Clown Posse"
This is one of the most embarrassing things TNA ever did. They were having literally a one-sided feud with Shawn Michaels and Triple H and they didn't even acknowledge their presents and they continued to do it for a while. You would think they got the message the second time around.
On a later shoot interview, both Billy and Brian (Dogg) did acknowledge that WWE did the smart thing by not paying attention to them.
It's crazy to see Road Dogg go from bitter ex WWE employee constantly taking shots at them to becoming a cooperate stooge for them. Definitely shows the type of person he is

@@bullock4211 people who sell their souls for money have no principles
90s and early 2000’s were fkn wild man lmao
I was at the infamous house show in Knoxville TN when VKM made their presence felt. I didn't know at the time they were there until I saw TNA the following week. But I did hear them yelling on the Mega Phone prior to the show & I seen when HHH waved & acknowledged them after his match
Shawn:"I don't understand. I have my keys, my wallet, and my gear. What am I forgetting?"
Hunter:"Shawn."(Points at the Alamo)
Shawn:😱
What are you referencing?
@@madnomad3861 I don't know, tbh. It was a video that I was shown.
@@FloridaGuy53 it was a DX segment?
@@madnomad3861 No, some dudes in front of the Alamo.
Shit like this in the 2000's kept people watching (and entertained), so many memories from the 90's and 00's thanks to silly stuff like this 😁
“OH MY BROTHA TESTIFY” im black and that cracks me tf up. Like wtf was he wearing that. He looks like he is covered in chocolate 😭
Prior to this, TNA had segments running throughout the Turning Point 2004 PPV (I think) in which impersonators of Vince and Triple H were backstage. The Vince character always had his back to the camera while the Triple H one was shorter, had a towel covering his head, and was sucking up to Vince, calling him "Dad".
Woah! That's exactly what your mother calls me!
@@ConanVictor pfp checks out, edgy boi
Billy Gunn in full black face is ... something
He's daddy scissors now 😁
Cosplaying
I found that funny for some reason
It was funny back then for some but nowadays the network would be cancelled 😂😂
Holy shit im dying at the blackface segment, what were they thinking
At 6:43, I actually watched that episode of RAW with a couple of friends at my house and we were all kinda surprised that the fans chanted for the Voodoo Kin Mafia & TNA as well. Granted that "Trump vs Rosie" match was the drizzling shizznizzles, but damn I remember not expecting those chants!
Good God is that the match with the cake? Such garbage.
Seemed to have the same impact as when the Young Bucks invaded a Smackdown taping parking lot and no one cared.
This was the era I got into TNA and started following online forums and commenting on CZcams videos. I remember people actually went to the Alamo and were freaking out when VKM didn’t show up.
John cena sang rocky top at the Knoxville house show and ran into the crowd. Then (swear to god)bumped into my dad 😂😂
It was kind of entertaining to say the least, TNA in their prime right here.
Markyd single handedly keeping TNA alive & I love it 😂🔥
2:21 I'm not sorry, this segment is hilarious.
"this guy is in AEW nowadays" I'm dead !
A look at Big Bossman's second WWF from the Hawk. Be it Vince's bodyguard, Kennel from Hell, or Big Show's a Nasty Bastard, Big Bubba was involved in a lot of things in such a small two year run.
he even got hung!
@@higler. That's still probably the weakest Hell in a Cell match next to Triple H v Kevin Nash.
AMEN. I've asked OSW Review to do a Big Boss Man arc in the future. Early 90s BBM is my ultimate boy.
@@rugalb98 HHH/Nash HITC is Bockwinkel/Hennig compared to that match. Fiend/Rollins I think is worse.
I remember this…. They even dressed up as 2 guys they used to be in a group with lol. It’s funny because no one really paid much attention to this “feud”
They were so desperate to get noticed by WWE that they mentioned them at every turn...but they are soooo badass they didn't use their wrestling names HHH and HBK because they didn't want to be sued...such rebels huh?
@@American-Zero yeah kinda like WWF with the Billionaire Ted skits with The Huckster and Nacho Man aimed at WCW. I totally get what you mean.
@@SuperHyphyOne Oh my God that entire angle was embarrassing and only made WWF look bush league. You'd think TNA would learn from the same mistakes Vince made...but I guess not.
Saw VKM in the title and had to immediately like 😂😂
Help me! They're in myDUN DUN DUN DUN DUNDUNDUNDUNDUNDUNDUNDUN
Wild Slapnuts! 😆 🤣 that meme will NEVER get old! Love it!
TNA/VKM was actually picking up momentum at this time in mid to late 2006. They were making an impact.
AT THE ALAMO!
Please do a video of Rhino challenging Vince and ECW, and burning the title, in a trashcan.
I remember when i saw that video on TNA website, horrible quality of video back then 😂
That was just a single segment.
Levesque! Hickenbottom! See you at The Alamo!
Would love to see Ludvig Borga (WWF run) enter to roster of hawk. Also AOP main roster run would be cool
I was at that house show and Billy didn't want to leave when Road Dogg did. I was by the doors talking to him and Borash about TNA when they had me grab Billy and tell him they needed to go. It wasn't nearly as crazy as the dirt sheets made it out to be. They had about 20 fans waiting to get inside that taped the segment with them then went in for the taunt, Hunter reacted and gestured towards them then they left.
What did Trips gesture to them?
@@2die4_93 I really wish I could remember but I'm pretty sure he just threw the big X for dx over his head like he used to.
911 Operator Whats Your Emergency
HELP ME THEY'RE IN MY HOU...
It’s not even a bad idea to have guys not wrestling but generating heat. Reminds me a lot of Jake Hager and Dutch Mantell taking shots at Congress.
Dude that stuff was so fun
You just described MJF.
Fun Fact: Christie Hemme’s feud was actually written for/intended for Chyna. But Vince Russo couldn’t get her at the time
That's so fucking stupid! Why not just NOT do the angle then? Russo's such a clown.
I always thought the name the James gang fit them very well going from the new age (outlaws) and Billy had a history of outlaw / cowboy tag teams and the James gang made sense for me given it was based off of Jesse and Frank James (19th century gang of outlaws) I enjoyed it anyway
RIP Jerry Jarret
Time for another great video from the hawk 🕊🦅
Hickenbottom, Leveck! High noon! The Alamo!
AT THA AL-LA-MO!
Levesque! Hickenbottom!
So considering their name was literally just based on the initials, VKM it is genuinely hard to think of a worse name. They somehow managed to chose the worst name possible using those letters lol
and Kip James is also one of the worst ring names ever lol.
@@taterbiscuit247 kip James is his actual name but you're still correct
I think you're confused. Kip is Gunn's middle name and James is road dogg's surname.
@@Duzykutas shit you're right...billy Gunn's name is actually worse..Monty sopp??!
@@tapset Billy's real name is Monty Kip Sopp.
Old school VKM was some of the most hilarious stuff I ever seen in TNA. They were the true reformed DX back then in my eyes. It was crazy seeing DX back in WWE with HHH and HBK and then the other half of DX in TNA who as many did hated what WWE was doing with DX. This was a great time to be a wrestling fan.
I always seen this attempt as they putting way to much focus on what the WWE was doing and mentioning them at every turn. For me if you have to constantly mention others and say how much better you are all the time it comes across as you are trying to convince yourself as much as those watching. It's one of the main reasons WCW got bad they focused on what others were doing too much.
WWE is such the name brand that I understand why they focus on them.
AEW IS DOING IT NOW
@@BonifideGreatnessWWE and AEW taking shots at each other it’s the norm now
That's the problem with this kind of booking. WWE is THE name in wrestling, in the US at least for the majority of people. Constantly mentioning WWE, even if you're putting it down, just reminds people that they're NOT watching WWE. And, for most people that means they're watching some small time also ran. Taking a shot at the big E gets a pop from your fans sure, but in the long its not going to bring anyone new in and it just reinforces that your product is bush league in comparison. Its much better to focus on your own strengths and your own product than to constantly compare yourself to the biggest name in the industry.
@@DragoEpyon WWE always had about 6 hours of TV since 2000. The only people who are going to watch are the people who want something different from WWE so it makes sense.
I literally forgot that The Heartthrobs and The Bashams were in TNA!!! 🤣🤣🤣
On today's episode of: "WWE Lives Rent Free in Every Other Promotion's Head"!
The yo momma segment was gold, thanks for the reminder 😅
I’m Fucken dying I’m glad you added SLAPNUTS😂
At Da AL-AMO! Michael Higginbottom!
13:12 X-PAC
lmfao that was hilarious
80% of this was very entertaining from your view. If only they could have had triple h and Shawn sign on with going on with this idea. How crazy that would have been
The DX Civil War would be interesting 😢😢
The lady bringing her kid to Billy Gunn's attention is so freaking hilarious. 🤣🤣
At the Alamo!! Higgenbottom!! Levesque!!
To his credit...
Thats probably the best blackface I've ever seen
This is the first time I’ve heard of this this is why I like this channel man
Nice timing Marky
As always, another great video. When will you do a review of the X-Factor faction in WWE? I'm actually a fan and I would love to see your letter grade on the faction.
15:00 Wow, Man times were different 😂
You know, as stupid as the VKM/WWE stuff was, in hindsight at least it was memeworthy.
The Christy Hemme feud, however, was the absolute pits.
1:05
Iirc, this was when WWE was doing that commercial for the 2005 Royal Rumble.
Said commercial was a musical number, to somehow tie it up neatly for Wrestlemania 21.
That damn Voodoo Kin Mafier.
I thought that was The Undertaker and Jeff Hardy in the thumbnail 😂
road dogg dressed as triple h looks like balls mahoney lmao
balls looked like an elderly woman towards the end of his life lol
Wonder if the sudden end of the invasion stuff, the sudden heel turn and then the sudden break up of the team was because TNA felt they needed to put an end to all of it since it was becoming obvious these guys were not in the best place at this time of their lives.
Are you familiar with the TNA from that era at all? They hired Kurt Angle at one of the lowest points of his life and basically said "pop all the pills you want, we don't give af lulz"
@@makeitthrough_Heh very true.
It was because Road Dogg didn't want to work in the ring and take anymore bumps, which is why their blow off match was so short and underwhelming.
Oh My Brother... Testify 🤣
This is phenomenal never knew any of this. The hawk does it again kawwwwww
I’m embarrassed but they got me to finally watch TNA.
Billy Gunn as D-Von was funny. I thought he had a lot of spray tan on at first.
2:51 That was actually pretty clever, I don’t think I’ve heard that one before 😂
R.i.p the father of slapnuts 😪
Rip Jerry Jarret we have him and Jeff to thank for the creation of TNA
@pengyzin agreed, a lot of stars would have different careers without them
Funniest part is most people seen it more as a jab at Vince McMahon not as a kid thought up the name
I remember seeing the clip of Billy Gunn, sorry Kip James, and Road Dogg, I mean BG James, at that backstage shoot that they crashed.
HICKENBOTTOM! LEVESQUE! HIGH NOON AT THE ALAMO!
Jesus Christ, I thought blackface Billy Gunn was a fucking fever dream, the strangest one I've ever had
Part of me thinking that all 4 was in on this angle.
VKM - Vincent Kennedy McMahon.
6:42 What's funny is that VKM also stands for Vincent Kennedy McMahon
All right time for the Hawk to talk!!
It’s crazy that Road Dogg is a person in charge at WWE now. Awesome he was able to turn his life around
Yes. Thank god. Cause most of this silly bs he did back then was when him and Billy were on a downward spiral in their personal lives and careers
Not really. Just shows how toxic wwe is
I remember the vkm but I literally remembered nothing from their antics until this video lol. Guess I'm getting old.
Marky has to make a video on the briscoe brothers
I thought a lot of these segments were Fever Dreams I had as a kid. I was like why am I seeing WWE stuff on TNA
I think the lead gets buried on this angle a bit.
The name chosen "Voodoo Kin Mafia" imo is James & Gunn implying something more about the McMahon family. Much like people have also implied about other celebrity figures such as Jennifer Lopez and Sean Combs for example.
It was chosen by a 6 year old. It isn't. It's nonsense a child thinks sounds cool.
The reason it was called the Voodoo Kin Mafia was just to make it so the initials of it spelt the initials of Vincent Kennedy Mcmahon mate
Well yea I know. But the corresponding words were bad choices
I was so excited and wanted this to go off so bad, knowing it wouldn’t…
6:54 Some wrestling tag team today needs to use the name "Cease and Desist"
9:13 Dixie Carter kind of doing a Norman Smiley taunt
1:20 Are those "No Introduction Needed" shirts merch for the stable they were in or something? Don't they know the initials NIN are already pretty much synonymous with Nine Inch Nails? For a second, I honestly thought Billy Gunn was wearing a Nine Inch Nails shirt, and was thinking to myself "dude has better music taste than I expected".
Or worse than expected
This is too funny
I like that they were both called "James" as their surnames, making it seem like they're married. XD
They aren't?
Or family? Weirdo.
They tried to copy Mario Brothers
@@user-fe8gx3ie5v To be fair, OSW Review said the same thing I did.
Love how The Hawk said that Billy Gunn's career was "Winding down" at this point; meanwhile he is in the midst of his "Daddy Ass" run in AEW rn and is arguably his best one and also he's in the best shape of his life at this point.
I remember this it was back in 06 it was kinda cool . I remember they cut their mics.
Wow I was just on a markyd marathon while at work and then I look up and he dropped another video 😏
