WrestleManiaVIII Intro

[guy2008rules]

In my opinion, the last good wrestlemania was WM17 in 2001.

[TheMrsuperman2000]

This is my favorite wrestlemania...

[tinkerthecat]

i agree with jim cornette vince did it ... russo that is

[videozfann]

I was there. One of the best times I ever had.

[ericwaffle31]

i can see vince announcing wrestlemania 28 next year: the wwe champion miz flair defends the title against the number one contender, the john morrison. the maniacal snookie shore goes one on one with the undertaker, in what could prove to be the undertakers farewell match

[Saints123000]

I remember being an 8 year old kid watching this and being distraught that it could be Hogan's last match. Now, almost 20 years later, he is still limping to the ring.

[AndrewsOpinion15]

when vince say wrestlemania he sounds heel !!!

[123Sarrah]

@vlsqvtpb...screw you!!

[Stumpfberger]

I was a very big WWF fan when i was a child (90ies) but todays Wrestling (WWE) suck!

The early 90ies where great but Attitude Era was simply awesome!

greetz from Austria

[drlemoncobra]

LOOOOVE this intro!

oooh! Gorilla Monsoon and The Brain - the greatest commentators of ANY era!! brings back so many great memories.

[MotleyKeith]

Best Wrestlemania EVER!! 'It was a hand full of tights' WooOOOOOO!!!

[thedude19766]

wm VIII is the hallmark of gorella monsoon and the brain's commentary

[crassyfrake]

@thedude19766 Agreed! They were in top form here. They were also great at the Rumble earlier in the year with Heenan shamelessly rooting for Flair lol

[sCoryvo]

thx for uploading these intro's!!!

[DreDaDon16]

this was my 3rd fav Wrestlemania 14 and 17 were my two favorites

[radicalman33]

i never really like this WM. i dont know why, but it just didn't do it for me. looking back i think was was because i was coming to the age where i realized that wrestling was scripted, and i was predicting storylines. i also knew from a friend that flair was gonna win the rumble ahead of time, and was dropping the title here. savage did not make a good champ this time around like he did 4 years prior

[ihavethelynx]

Any idea of the name of the theme tune here? Love it. Brings back good memories.

[uncbb89]

I just dont get why they didnt do a Flair-Hogan matchup for the WWF title?

[Edgehead10075]

I think that it was because Hogan was leaving, and therefore they couldn't have him win the title from Flair.

[kidney122398]

I remember going to this Wrestlemania, it was at hometown of Indianapolis, Indiana.

[mab1014]

The last solid Wrestlemania. It all went to hell the next year.

[TheBigwwefan1000]

haha ur so rite. it sucked untill wm 17 now it sux again

[mainsqueeze1977]

Nonsense, Wrestlemania 9 and 10 were good WMs too.

[gothsoul82]

hogan was on theme until he left

[ECWnWWF]

While neither main event on this WrestleMania was as good or as meaningful as the ones at WM3, WM5, and the best one of all at WM6...from top to bottom this was a better WM. And WM7 & WM3 also had "under-card" matches that were super classic. But, WM8 had like the feel like every match was huge! And the contrast of the established stars & the stars of the future.

Too bad the government got on WWF about the roids thing (isn't it funny how Baseball, 16 years later is in the same hot water)

[3089280288]

They don't fill venues like that anymore.

[DALLASDIALLEO]

The Hoosier dome wasnt filled near capacity, and they even had 15,000 + comped tickets.

[MavsFan1982]

And nowadays, the Hoosier/RCA Dome is just a mere memory...

[kidney122398]

Now is Lucas Oil Stadium.

[vlsqvtpb]

i fuckin hate people using their cameras. learn to upload from VHS or DVD properly.

[princesstamika]

I have a bunch of old VHS but I'm a technical retard. I'd upload the stuff if I knew how. Could you help me out?

[vlsqvtpb]

yeah man first download a DVD shrink which basically uploads the entire DVD (once VHS tape is transferred to DVD). Then, download a divX program in which the episode you uploaded can be processed to youtube format.

[princesstamika]

Thanks!

[titan0723]

Bring Wrestlemania back to Indy!

[xobrentox]

I was there!! It was so amazing!!

[Freebleeper]

BEST WRESTLEMANIA EVER!!!!

[SHAN2KING]

are you ure about that

[Freebleeper]

Savage and Flair had one heck of a match, a fun 8 man tag and of course Warrior's shocking return just makes this show kick ass. And and course Hart and Piper had a great match too.

[stonecoldlinz]

i remember i was 17 years old back then, when i watched this one live. it was 4 a.m. here in europe, when the ultimate warrior was surprisingly making his return at the end. my friends an me were talking all night long on the phone after warriors return. i was so shocked, that i ran around in my room, and almost cried like a baby, i also woke up my mom sleeping the room next to mine :( she thought i totally lost my marbles...

[satanasgirl]

definitely one of my favourite wrestlemania's...thanx for posting this, the commentary on this is one of my top favs of any wrestlemania! Great matches, I watched it over and over on my vhs lol I'm thankful I was born in the days of the early wrestlemanias (1-10 are the best I think)

[bensimpson]

probably my favourite wrestlemania ever i used to have it on vhs and watched it all the time as a kid haha good memories :p

[dragoneyes524]

And hulkamania still lives to this day!

[RagingSnake1982]

Hulk Still Sucks

[anil2]

1992 was a good year for wrestling

[brand88]

best intro ever to the best wrestlemania ever!!!!!!

[RagingSnake1982]

Very different from these days. Usually all we get is some crappy little video and a pyro.

[kidkash23]

i can tell u who will main event WM 25 its easy since next year's WrestleMania will be in Texas its only fitting to have HBK be in the main event in his home state.

[RagingSnake1982]

Undertaker is from Texas as well so they could have the both of them in the main event with Stone Cold (who is also from Texas) as a referee.

[bammybound]

lmao..vince introducing the show is hilarious,,,,,its wrestlemaniaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[TrilogyofC]

This has to be my favourite wrestlemania... the good ol days

[quaidnomore]

nothing goes past wrestlemania 6

but yeah these were the good ol days

WWF slowly went on the decline after WMX

[DisturbedErnie77]

hab ich darmals live auf tele5 (german tv ) geguckt.great opener!!!

[bebofilm]

one of the greatest 'Manias of all time!

[50heaven]

Vince McMahon should go back to doing intros

[dmarks270]

miss the old wwf music best wrestling music ever

[odale1606]

the best times of wrestling IMO. The music was great.

[ecmulder]

McMahon was great at these hype jobs, he should do these again

[TrilogyofC]

Wrestlemania 8 was great, I got the video bought for at christmas when I was younger. Dont have it anymore, but that intro brought back some classic memorys

[gamble7man]

This music is hardcore, Vince should start re-doing intro's again.

[paulglory]

good times, good times. but did you film that off your T.V

[teddyshah]

tat music is way too 80's bt i gotta agree it goes very well wit wrestlemania..

[jbolt720]

ya, WWE should bring back that music right now for all Wrestlemania's.... that theme represents Wrestlemania in the greatest way! and so does that logo...

[LoneSoldier51]

That music fits for the 80's and early 90's. it doesn't fit anymore. So yeah you will not see them putting that music for Wrestlemania and ever changing that logo.

[kingmichael1986]

I totally agree, that music is classic but c'mon, anyone who hears that music today thinks of 1980's-early 90's cheesy music. it was classic and great, but remember...you live in the past you die in the past.

[ddrock23]

Yeah that theme but may be outdated now but I think Wrestlemania needs a good current theme they could use evry year that would be fitting to today's standards and not use theme music from these cheesy bands. I hate it when they do that!!! Because they're not that memorable.

[foleynj86]

Hey I was 7 when this took place and I really did believe that this was Hulk's farewell match, what a mark I used to be

[imDAZEDandCONFUSED]

17 years?? can you see into the future haha

[akuma4u]

lol hogans farwell match ya right, some 17 years later he was still headlining the event.

[Edgehead10030]

1992+17=2009. How do you know that Hulk is going to main event WrestleMania 25?

[akuma4u]

my bad on the math LOL (unless of course he does actually main event next year)

[toucansam3]

I heard they put cardboard cutouts of people in some of the higher seats to make it look full.

[monkfish]

THEY MUST BRING BACK THAT MUSIC!!!

[stndrds79]

ive got the theme music its cool!!

[stndrds79]

well i have most of it

[godzilla0083]

I wish Chris Benoit wasn't here any more.

[randys24]

i think first they asked eddie's wife could they do that,.. and she said yea. plus she was in it while the storyline was going if im correct

[mitchellsmith1889]

At the end end of day wen eddie died why did they have to av a 6 month story line about eddies family n rey mesterio. that is in bad taste and cashing in on a death. I never bought into the whole rey mesterio champion thing. it made me fall out wiv wrestling to be honest.

[randys24]

so r u going to tell me that vince did something to cause him to kill his family?

[godzilla0083]

Chris Benoit murdered his own family.

[randys24]

give me a break,...... the wwe will make dvd's and t-shirt,.. but only in good taste of remembering someone. i would want someone to do that for me.

[godzilla0083]

Well Vince will make money off of this. Peroid.

[Edgehead10030]

No, he won't. He hasn't mentioned Benoit's name since.

[randys24]

DONT START THIS CRAP WITH CHRIS! they found him at his house dead. now unless vince went to his house and killed him or made him do something in his house to kill him then blame him, but u and me and everyone who looks at this FUCKING KNOWS!! that vince isnt a bad guy as u claim he is

[godzilla0083]

Now Chris Benoit is dead. Who again is at fault...once again...123...VINCE!!!

[Edgehead10030]

Nope. Chris Benoit is at fault for his actions, not Vince. Jesus Christ, shut the fuck up, godzilla.

[randys24]

give me a break,...... they mighta asked his wife if they could use his name in promos and storylines and all that. if they didnt,.... she coulda sued them for every penny.

[godzilla0083]

WWF(WWE) profits on wrestlers deaths. Example: Eddie Guerrero.

[randys24]

lol! THANK YOU! and yea its wrong to be talking about someone when they're dead.

[randys24]

but did it say that vince made him do it? i mean he coulda had a choice,... and i thought the whole sting flying act was done before the year 1997 was over. why would vince want to make fun of that since is was already a year and 1/2 dead.

[WWF247]

listen all of you ppl are making assumptions about owens death. it was an accident....if you want to blame someone...you blame the suit owen wore. godzilla idk wat r u talkin about buyrate and what now....your not right yet ur not wrong but quit talkin as if u were there on the night owen died. vince aint a idiot in real life or on tv cuz obvisouly he got you hooked on wrestling one way or another godzilla ENOUGH SAID

[godzilla0083]

Yuo wanna know the whole buyrate thing huh! Well assshole Vince told Owen to do that stunt in order to make fun of Sting from WCW. He told him that and also told him that there will be huge buyrates for the company. Didn't you see Owen's biography on A&E Channel. Vince is an idiot in real life and in his character on TV. Enough said.

If I were a wrestler I would never work with the McMahon's. I hate that family.

[randys24]

lol give me a break,...... dont get the vince u see on tv and the vince in real life mixed up. vince wouldnt make someone do a life killer thing without talking with them first. owen coulda said NO!! i dont want to do that, i feel unsure about it, and vince woulda taken the idea of the board, but owen wanted to do it.

ps: u didnt explain the whole buyrate thing to me..

[godzilla0083]

Vince is at fault for everything that happen to Owen Hart, including his death. Just ask his still grieving wife Martha Hart.

[randys24]

haha i bit if one of those playboy junk asked u out u would say HELL YES, and if the parents had sence they would get their kids out the room or change the tv while the divas were wrestling or doing a promo. owen hart got paid money to do that stunt and stay in wrestling. it was his greed of money that kept him in the wwf (wwe), and 1 question how would that stunt bring ratings up and buy rates up? thats like me paying 50 dollars to see a 1 min. boxing match..... so dont blame vince.

[godzilla0083]

I mean that Vince screwed up wrestling by putting Playboy junk in front of children in the audience. Owen knew the industry was headed into something dangerous and wanted to get out but 'genius' Vince had to put him in a blue suit and jump from the roof of the Kansas City arena for no apparent reason. Only for ratings and buy rates.

Again Vince and family screwed wrestling.

[randys24]

WHAT DO U MEAN BY THAT?

[JonnyArmani41]

Great Video Vince McMahon Did the best wretlemania intros and Bobby Heenan and Gorilla Monsoon They were the best announcers.

[godzilla0083]

Why don't you ask Owen Hart's family about how they feel about the McMahon's.

[headley77]

Awesome old school WWF intro....Bring back Vince McMahon voiceovers

[randys24]

hey the wwf (wwe) has to be the top,.. any company in the world has to be the top dog, and they have to do anything and everything to become that. plus! tna doesnt seem right for pro wrestling. the only thing they did was take some of the old wwe superstars who got fired, and gotten some of the old old old,.... wcw stars wrestling for them, and doing some dum promos. what the hell is that macho man act they got going? the only thing they have is christy =]

[godzilla0083]

I think I prefer the wrestling styles of TNA rather than WWF(WWE) now because of the fact the McMahons love to bankrupt other wrestling companies.

[Edgehead10030]

I hate TNgAy because it reminds me of WCW, which sucked. BTW, WCW tried to bankrupt WWE.

[leftyoublueandblack]

Business is Business, you hate wcw for trying to bankrupt wwe but wwe did the same damn thing.

[randys24]

come on,..... if it wasnt for vince and his family,.. the world wrestling federation (wwe) wouldnt be as big as it is.

[godzilla0083]

Vince and family screwed the WWF(WWE).

[Edgehead10030]

That makes no sense, since Vince is the one who made it big.

[Sgrubb1S]

Gotta love these old school WWF intros, with Vince's voiceover and the 80's rock theme.
