    WILL SMITH IS FREAKIN' BLACK

  • This is when Michael Cole was still decent. Now he's an ass!

  • fuck you PG!

  • It used to be fun watching WWF every Monday and Thursday night. Now its completely boring!!!!

  • to this day i have no idea what that guy is saying in the intro

  • MAN 2000 AND 2001 2002 WAS BEST YEARS EVER

  • @ThEfAlcOn911 What about 1998 and 1999. 1999 is when the WWF had their best ratings ever.

  • GREAT MEMORIES T_T

  • Get rid of the kids these what WWE fans look like.

  • @Dim4323 agreed. you don't see many of them anymore

  • That small clip have more quality action & content than the current Cena WWPG 13 combine in a whole year.

  • @NoobSoldier2006 you know what's sad? If you look at the intro and compare it to raw thi year, that's actually true. smh

  • when SMACKDOWN! was the rocks show...no not just the rocks show the peoples show.

  • The Rock's show SMACKDOWN!

  • Best smackdown theme

  • this was when smackdown and raw was equally good

  • Damn back then the WHOLE crowd was covered with signs, the crowd was never silent, and now the crowds are almost always silent and WWE takes signs away. I miss the passion.

  • @HBKFuckingOwns hell ya i member dat  i used to get so pumped

  • Damn I miss this.

  • this make me wanna do the rock bottom then the people elbow on somebody.....

  • I miss when the crowds used to FLOOD the arena with SIGNS!

  • Just got chills watching that pyro!!!! Man I miss this!

  • lol smackdown blows dick now.. prob wont be around next year

  • This is how a fucking intro is done, unlike today's RAW (and especially SMACKDOWN) excuses of an intro, where everything is pretty colours and cheery songs!

    God PG makes me wanna throw up.

  • @ESFAndy011 I was watching WWF at the beginning of the Attitude era, awesome times

  • I miss the OLD WWE. All these new wrestlers suck big time. Everybody is leaving. I haven't seen wrestling since 2 of my favorites left, but I've seen it a couple of times and these new wrestlers are nothing compared to the ones 2008 and earlier.

  • Im fed up. WWE needs to drop this PG shit NOW. yeah they have more people, or KIDS viewing McMahons product. but the ratings are lower than vinces tits. the new so called talent arent talented at all, & the storyline writers are shit or running outta ideas. But vince cant help the superstars that retire though, thats their choice. but really vince, swagger, marine cena, Kharma, WTF shes not hot! at least find some one that kinda looks like torrie wilson or stacy. he needs to fix things up. now.

  • I love this.

    Triple H, Rock, Chyna, Foley...

    Everyone was in their prime

  • just by looking at those wrestlers in the video just shows how great the wwf era was

  • WHAT A GREAT ROSTER

  • From the most hardcore wrestling ever to a family show.When i was 10 i never thinked that wwe will be big bullshit like right now...

  • it would be super cool if all the attitude wrestlers like the rock,austin,dudley boyz,hardyz,edge and christian,too cool, steve blackman and all dx members came into the wwe with all kinds of weapons, tables,ladders and chairs. and beat the shit out of all the wwe wrestlers. attitude people would send a message to vince that says "bring the attitude era back"

  • @xdivision100 That would actually make for a very interesting storyline - similar to the wcw/ecw invasion

  • @vvbn7890 Man i just want my childhood back. watching todays wrestling is like an insult to me. usually i would sit in front of my tv and watch the raw and smackdown but now i can't look at my tv for 5 minutes because you see the same wrestlers in the main event. you know its bad when attitude era wrestlers return and not get a big cheer like cena or punk. now when an attitude era wrestler returns its quiet as fuck like DLO andgrand master sexay.

  • back when smackdown is cool they need to bring this theme back alot better than that Greenday crap they have now a days.

  • Comment removed

  • Oh My God, if that 24 second intro didn't get you pumped for the show, you have no soul.

  • @DXMan2330 7 ppl have no soul

  • @ghostflyable23 They Must Be Gingers

  • no wwehd great

  • good stuff

  • I went from Loving

    all the wreslers

    most of them

    half of them

    some of them

    NONE

  • Comment removed

  • back when wrestling was good

  • 6 people prefer the PG Era

  • The Peoples Show, welcome to thursday night SMACKDOWN!

  • no creativity from 2007 and on. wwe used to be the shit in the early 2000's.

  • Man smackdown was badass back then

  • Smackdown is not the same it used to be..,..

  • i wish they still showed wrestling on tv

  • omg i was there i loved that night

  • at like 0:14 or 0:15 who got threwn thru the ring

  • remember when smackdown was cool?

  • @smily180 nope

  • just some lower midcard matches like Bob Holly vs Bart Gunn are much more better that the Main Events for the World title

  • Remember when smackdown and raw were basically two different companies??!?! That was awesome

  • @JoshBroz , no it really wasnt. Worst thing that ever happened to WWE was separating the rosters.

  • @CapHowdy oops that what i meant yeah having every superstar on both companies was really good

  • I loved that pyro opening. It was awesome! Now the WWE has the same titan tron set for both shows. No originality.

  • viejos tiempos, cuando habian buenas luchas y supers stars, no como ahora q ya no keda nada de eso....

  • @Flade155 im not the only one who's complaining on wrestling videos. that quote you put is very annoying. most people say that. the past has been written and done. we can't go back. it's done.

  • @Flade155 btw, I meant early 2000's and Attitude Era when it was called WWF. That was the shit. After 2002, everything changed. By 2005, that was when WWE was bad and shitty. I know it. You know it. Either you don't get it or you are just plain slow. And dude, close the case because nobody cares about our opinions. Move on and that's all. My comment about up with wwf and down with wwe was 3 months ago.

  • @Flade155 lmfao, u crack me up more dude. They changed WWE after the Attitude Era ended. It ended when Austin and Rock left and retired. That was 2002 when they changed the initials from WWF to WWE. I knew that it wasn't their choice to change. Both World Wildlife Fund and World Wrestling Federation had battled for the lawsuit til it ended in 2002. So you're pretty wrong and pretty stupid to understand that.

  • @Flade155 go fuck and suck john cena's dick, u cena loving yabba dabba bitch. WWF was called World Wrestling Federation. That was the shit. WWE sucks. Remember that, Cena lover.

  • @Flade155 U think Im stupid? I know what's wwf meant, u retard. there's world wrestling federation before it was called world wrestling entertainment and there's world wildlife foundation which was there at the same time as world wrestling federation. thanks 2 those stupid wildlife idiots, they now have the rights for the initials. oh, u like wwe, huh? hey everybody, he says i'm a real puss? check it out. he's a real puss cuz he's sucking john cena's dick. lmfao

  • I love this Intro and The WWF

  • This is when I saw Smackdown live. It was so awesome. So sad all the wrestlers except Christian is now longer wrestling and two of them are dead. Miss the WWF attitude era it was better back then.

  • wow this really takes me back.... this was awesome.

  • 0:09 What is that Chyna's match ? You know that's my best moment of Chyna.

    I would like to know , please tell me.

  • its hard not to rape the replay button... it gives good memories back :D

  • I WANT WWF BACK ! ! ! ! !

  • Excellence at its climax.

  • 1997-2001. I would relive those years all over again and go through my early teens just to re-watch the Attitude era. I am WWF all the way but man I do miss WCW also. Nothing like flipping between RAW and Nitro. Ha, back when Mondays were exciting.

  • I miss this Smackdown theme song :(

  • now that is an intro

    a theme songs

    now

    is palayed by some peace of shit

    trendy bands

  • the eyes of taker i the very first second classic

    

  • I remember runing to the tv every thursday night with my fake wwf belt and just watch.

    Those were my childhood days. To bad kids now a days have to see nothing but BS. Is the wwe like banned from doing extreme matches now cuz back then they wold do some crazy stuff especially for the hardcore title which by the way they should bring back.

  • @000500006 you're right about the hardcore title regardless of however they where knockin hell outa eachother it kept the show flowing and kept people watching who would've turned to nitro when al snow has just been brained with a trash can lid HA! good times :D

  • i remember the video game. it was awesome

  • The good days. The WWE needs to drop all these guys with names like "Joe Smith" and "Tom Williams" and get back to the characters, get back to actually trying to convince us that the Undertaker was literally dead. Oh yeah, and better themes and intro music like this and the old RAW is WAR theme. None of this Green Day and Nickelback crap. Way too commercialized now-a-days.

  • @Chase33 THANK U I COULDNT SAID IT BETTER!!!!

  • @Chase33 Couldn't agree with you more man! Especially about the characters, we need some costumes & facepaint out there, somebody looking like Papa Shango or Ultimate Warrior, or even Macho Man, cause all it is now are tights and nicely cut hair. That's why I like John Morrison - long hair, beard, nice ring/entrance wear, he's a good showman.

  • @SquadUp5FDP Morrison has potential and I think that Alberto Del Rio is a step in the right direction also. The Miz has awesome mic skills, just needs to be a bit edgier. After those 3, I dont see anyone else worth spending 2 hours of my Monday night watching. It's sad when Undertaker and Triple H can come back ONCE a year for 'Mania only so the WWE can have an audience. Imagine some of these guys headlining 'Mania...a joke. CM Punk's recent rant was GREAT...lets just give him a "character."

  • @Chase33 I dunno, I quite like that a lot of them just have names now as long as they're catchy enough names, it's the type of thing that wouldn't really be that noticeable of the quality was still there. If you hypothetically had a Joe Smith vs. Tom Williams and they were just great wrestlers and great on the mic, and were allowed to go out and show it who'd care about less gimmicks really? At the moment we get matches where the entrances last longer than the matches themselves half the time.

  • @TopDog69 I agree that the product put on television is more important but I think there was something magical behind the "characters." I mean wrestling was around in the 50's but when you had The Giant, Macho Man, Hulk Hogan type characters in the 80's it exploded. Then again in the mid-late 90's with The Rock, 'Taker, Kane, HBK, Stone Cold....DX...the list goes on. I really like Alberto Del Rio, CM Punk and The Miz right now..potential steps in the right direction.

  • @Chase33 Does seem like the WWE have a bit of a penchant for turning whatever characters they might have a bit more normal and just watered down. I mean Kane before he was unmasked was just a really great character, you bought in to him just being this monster because of the production for him and how he handled himself in promos and in the ring. Then they unmasked him and, honestly, when they did that my first reaction was to laugh, they did it so horribly, it just looked beyond stupid.

  • @TopDog69 ...and look how his career has been since. The second he unmasked I regretted ever desiring him to remove it. The mystique, the aura are gone from the WWE. I remember waking up early on Saturday's just to watch Livewire. Although still popular, i think the WWE and McMahona have rested on their laurels. If TNA would provide any sort of healthy competition we may see a better product out of the WWE.

  • Thank you for uploading this bro!!! It brings back memories! WWE HAS ALREADY BEEN SUCKED!!! LOL

  • These were the days man!!!! Huluhuluhuluhoo hoo hoo hoo hoo!!!!

  • pleasee i want back to 1999 :)

    

  • woooooow from this the gay-arse green day! WTF WWE!?!

  • The 6 people who hated this are fans of gay-ass bullcrap UFC.

  • ahhh the good ol days, when you watch this from 8pm to 10 and the next day friday, talk to your friends about what happened last night

  • waho great quality

  • man

    these days were hardcore and now it makes wwe like a little wussy

    what a stupid change that was

  • ok blond bitch with nice tits at a smackdown event with no kids around her what happen after 05 evrything just openly let gay become gayer...

  • 0:11 Do you smell what The Rock is cookin? #Epic

  • welcome to smackdown im micheal cole and jerry the king at ring side

  • ..What are they saying?

  • the Rock made his return last monday, persannally he should have back on friday, as SMACKDOWN was His Show

  • @axman15 I saw the whole thing

  • it costs more money to make smackdown live than to do surprises on Raw. Not to mention the whole point of smackdown is for the newer talent, so if they botch anything up its much easier to edit. And despite the fact that smackdown is his show, many people dont watch it on fridays. Friday is usually day when viewers catch a movie, go to dinner, and party somewhere. Not to sit at home and watch television, thats part of the reason why smackdown has low ratings. It had higher ratings on thursday.

  • @NANU1115 yeah but people dont leave the house till 10 and smackdown and is on at 8 and by 10 everyone is out the door aleast anyone who is older

  • Ah I remember this intro fondly...

  • When you saw either this or the Raw is War intro you knew you were in for something good. Just not the same anymore..

  • @ :49sec that's me with the WWF ROCK License tag! lol

  • 1:03 thats me to left!!! > :P

  • UP WITH WWF, ATTITUDE ERA, EARLY 2000'S ERA, TV-14 PROGRAMING, DOWN WITH CENA, WWE, AND THE TV-PG ERA!!!!! THUMBS UP IF U AGREE!!!!!

  • @ecuadragon I don't know why you fanboys keep saying down with WWE PG. Smackdown has ALWAYS been TV-PG. RAW wand Heat were the only TV-14 shows. Retards.

  • @b34ntown4life no, u r wrong. smackdown never was tv-pg. u should had watch the wwe in the past and see how it was. there was tv-14 stuff back then. not only raw and heat. and yes, down with tv-pg. that's the reason why they are losing viewers with cena and few.

  • @ecuadragon Dude, there are videos all over youtube with mackdown and the TV-PG rating. Videos way back from 2000 and 2001.

  • @ecuadragon Thumbs up for cheap thumbs up complaining about things you can't change!

  • @fatmanfiftythousand thumbs up for a comment that nobody gives a shit about what anybody says including you. even a comment that was posted months ago.

  • @ecuadragon I can't wait until the day when wrestling fans stop trying to lead their own revolution and just realise that wrestling is entertainment and isn't supposed be debated like it's a World War. It's just a TV program, get over yourself.

  • @ecuadragon HELL YEAH!

  • 1999-2004 were the best years on smackdown. i missed it so much especially the rock, austin, and the helmelsy mcmahon regime saga. that was smackdown!!!! currently now, it totally sucks not only because of the show,but the PG WWE era.

  • 1999-2006 when smackdown was awesome

  • WWF SMACKDOWN IS A HUNDRED TIMES BETER THAN WWE SMACKDOWN

  • WWF WAS THE DAYS

  • 1999-2003 were the best yrs of smackdown ever !

  • This is the times when Cole wasn't a Bitch.

  • @MoxiosZX agreed

  • this made a tear come wow wrestling took a 450 degree turn less then 5 fucking years daam fucking kids have to make everything pg..and there not even fans they just go to watch john cena come out with his faggot ass theme song so they can show off there cena dolls.

  • omg! look at the amount of signs! Thats real WWF! nowadays..well..wwe is now like a kids show :/ wtf!
