WWF UK RAMPAGE 1991 ALL GOES WRONG AT THE START

[SuperSpanishChicken]

Loved this PPV I still have it on VHS.

[awferfuksake]

My best memory of watching this, was when Hulk Hogan's theme came on and the crowd just went mental!!

[senorleemond]

I was there!! this makes me feel really old!! but also brought back a few memories! I still have my HULK RULES UK flag

[tinkerthecat]

its amazing as sky sports 9 years ago aired summerslam for free yes thats right summerslam 2002 a big four ppv was aired for free on sky sports

[DoobyStew]

@tinkerthecat does that mean they're now PPV in UK? I stopped watching wrestling about 11 years ago and up until then every single WWF PPV was free on Sky Sports. The only exception was about 3 UK events that were on Box Office

[FilmItYourselfTV]

@TheKBEES

he was also billed from hull, halifax and manchester. take your pick to which is the right place?!

[RhodesLives]

Damn i was just gettin in2 that lol i remember seeing this years ago.

[MrLittleBARON]

I was ringside for this... Happy memories and I was a legend at school after my step dad came through with tickets for me and 3 of my friends! At the end of Hogan's match against Sergeant Slaughter when Hogan is milking the crowd I through a cardboard banner I'd made of him from pages I'd cut out of my WWF magazines. It bounced off the ropes, hit an unaware Hogan in the back and ended up under his boot as he cupped his ear for the roars of the crowd. I was willing him to spot it and pick it up!

[FilmItYourselfTV]

@MrLittleBARON

[FilmItYourselfTV]

Respond to this video...

i seen that on the dvd - good throw!

[Lloydgo]

Sky Movies + and The Movie Channel, Memories :-), Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe Summerslam 92 was the first ever WWF PPV shown on Sky Sports.

[ECWnWWF]

if Roddy was on coke, I'm sure Vince supplied him with it ... but, if law enforcement found out about it, Vince would fire Piper and claime WWF had a drug policy - if the charges were dropped, then Vince would rehire Piper and supply him with more coke.

[craigt1981]

This was when wrestling was great!

[dyingfly]

It also went wrong during the Bulldog vs Bezerker match - The lights went out and the arena became pitch black - thank God this was before Health and Safety - They would have evacuated everyone from the building.

[1060893]

3:20 "I'm the WarLord, Dumbass!"

[ESSJ333]

wat a blooper LOL

[CenobiteVictim]

Roddy is hilarious as ever here. Wish he would just host his own show!

[123Sarrah]

piper lol!

[pearljam619]

Whats the mistake?

[NYCMESBRNX]

@pearljam619 The Bret Hart music came on and the announcer began to announce Jim The Anvil Neidhart when The Warlord was walking down the aisle. I have been a wwf/e fan for over 25 years and this is the first time I've ever seen such a production botch.

[josephD32]

The "Bret Hart music" was also Neidhart's at the time (I'm sure you know that but you'll be surprised at the number of people who don't).

I've seen these kinds of mistakes at house shows, but yeah, it's extremely rare to see something like that on a televised event.

[YouTubed]

err - they called the warload - jim the anvil from the hart foundation. Just got them back to front.

[driller007]

"how hairy is sherri?" fucking pair of pervs

[LOLWEISER]

I went to this event, bloody hell brings back memories!

[blueberrywine69]

damn Rowdy lay off the cocaine

[RNC200707]

Do you have this whole event? Sounds like it was quite a good show

[tygress1uk]

Sadly i was there and it wasnt a very good show at all. Anvil and the Warlord match stunk, Superfly v Barbarian was funny as the lights went out during it, credit to them tho they kept going, and Hulk Hogan wrestled the same match he has done for his entire career

[RoyStantz]

Well, what about the Rockers vs Orient Express match? Surely, that was a good match, right?

[tygress1uk]

It was passable but not good, they had a much better one at the Royal Rumble a few months earlier

[RoyStantz]

Good point.

[LordHeath1972]

It is available on both VHS and on DVD.

The DVD is on the "Tagged Classics" series with Battle Royal At The Albert Hall (which was on 13 October 1991).

[RNC200707]

I bet Vince was seething at the ring announcer's mistake

[landinmycourt]

@RNC200707 I think Vince was seething more when he found out about the stuff he was doing outside the ring.

[RNC200707]

@landinmycourt

What was he doing outside the ring?

[landinmycourt]

@RNC200707 Mel Phillips was fired from WWF following allegations of sexual misconduct with underaged ring boys.

[homertime97]

the warlordddddddddAAAAA!

LOL

[GreenArrowM]

GREAT the WWF comes over 2 the U.K and we cant get it right from the word go. NICE GOING.

[MikeMcGrathBryan]

From Reno, Nevada... The Warlord?

YAYYYY!!!

[netoon151]

There was no Sky Sports or Sky box office back then. Only EuroSport which showed Prime Time Wrestling & Sky One showing Superstars & Wrestling Challenge. Sky Movies plus also showed the big boxing fights.

[x2xtreme360]

McMahon looks like Bob Saget here

[81runFROMwhat]

omg!

At 4:00 when it shows the crowd and theres that kid being held up wearing the black Ultimate Warrior t-shirt, Ive got the same shirt that I bought on the European Rampage back in 1991.

Ive still got it! Its all faded and stretched but ive told my girlfriend if she ever throws it out ill drive her car into the river!

[xplaybwoix]

hi i was wondering if anyone knew if there was a cllip on youtube showing the beginning bit to every wwf video i used to have...it showed all the wrestlers and had music in the background and came on everytime before the ppv started...i cant remember anymore than that except one bit in clip has hogan shaking his head..duno why im remember that bit..i think it happened at certain point in the music..anyone know what im going on about? its in all old wwf videos...in uk anyway..thanks

[MotleyKeith]

I know the footage your talking about. Its at the beginning of every old skool 'Silver Vision' video. Has some really old skool music and clips of the rockers, hogan etc. And some guy talking over it, telling you to grab the latest Silver Vision videos for each PPV. I have so many of these videos, but no equipment to upload :(

[HugoRune1976]

A year later he sold out wembley stadium for summerslam

[ndbailey666]

I went to the house show before this up at whitley bay, good times. I remember the sky movies stuff now, it's something that is blocked out and makes no sense as a child.

[johnnyafairbanks]

You mean Wrestlemania 3; he filled 93,173 people there!

[cipas01]

93,173 is a made up figure by WWE. It was actually 78,000

[johnnyafairbanks]

Yeah, you're right, it was 78,000. But the REAL attendance record for a Wrestlemania would be 20 years later, with 80,103 packing Ford Field when the event returned to Detroit.

[cipas01]

Again 80,103 was a made up figure by WWE. The actual attendance for Wrestlemania 23 was 74,867

[johnnyafairbanks]

78,000 or 93,173; either way, Wrestlemania III still holds the indoor attendance record for a wrestling event.

[AaronApolloCamp]

The WWE has made up attendance figures that are larger than the real attendance for the past 25 years. In recent years, they've also billed some of the larger wrestlers as weighing lighter than they actually do...the Big Show is actually over 550 pounds, not 500 pounds.

[123456789adams]

the record for the largest wwe attendance is for summerslam 1992 at wembly

[tidykris]

its strange they had this on sky movies, i would have thought it would have been on sky sports!! Did all WWF events used to be on sky movies in those days?? I started watching in 1993 when they were on sky sports

[MotleyKeith]

yeh this was before Sky Sports was around, All WWF events were on Sky movies Plus ....SOOOO many great memorys. the good ole days :)

[ravelicious]

wwf mania,challenge,and superstars were on sky one

[MotleyKeith]

yeh ...they werent 'EVENTS' tho. I'm talking PPV stuff...brap!

[domthehedwaffmag]

I loved wwf back tin the 90s

[swordmeister99]

haha I loved when piper wrestled but he was really funny when he broadcasted. lol those retards screwed up the theme music to throw the ring announcer off

[kdmfc]

when wrestling was good.

happy days

[alyndavies]

lol, i dont remmeber that happening

[ThePhunckyOne]

Fucking hell, look how small Vince's hands are. I bet he's only got a 4" dick.

[RickModelMartel]

Great music for the UK Rampage 1991, 91 was a really great year in wrestling!

[RickModelMartel]

Yeah I remember this fault whilst watching it live on Sky Movies, I bet vince went nuts after lol. It wasn't the ring announcers fault, poor man lol, where is that ring announcer anyway, bring him back!

[SheriffTankStoner]

Mel Phillips will never be back. He had a fetish for boy's feet which was part of the infamous ring boy scandal that also involved Pat Patterson and Terry Garvin.

[Keepitgreasy11]

oy vey!!! I was gonna mention that too about Mel Phillips.

Bret Hart's book "Hitman My Real Life In The Cartoon World Of Wrestling" either about Mel Phillips or Terry Garvin that he befriend one of the boys in the locker room and told one of the boys something naughty long story short...word got around the back about him and what he wanted to do or has done I'll get back to you on what was said lol

[Risaddum]

knowing vince he wud have fired the guys who fucked up with the entrance of the warlord

[SherriMartelFan]

Piper rules

[nu2life80]

All this for ONE fuck up... all they did was play the wrong music

[kurupt25]

at 4:14..WTF??..LMAO Piper rules

[stevecorino]

lol, agreed

[soundofdapolice]

Ha ha wots with the little pig squeels

[ec0nac0i0fi0]

lol. they left it this way on the tagged classics dvd

[toosweet4285]

Doesn't surprise me. WWF always changed things last minute at most high profile shows.

[LordKain666]

It wouldn't surpise me if both of them were high Vince was a known cocaine user back in the day as well.

[spade121981]

I remember seeing the warlord workout at powerhouse gym in San Francisco...fucking monster.

[driller007]

awesome music, warlord must have been thinking "wow they love me over here i even have music"

[bobbydazzler77]

This is the 1st WWF event I ever went too! Great memories!

[TheUndertaker07478]

TRAViDiddy84 I Agree LMAO!

[dogbluerocky]

Kudos to every British wrestling fan. You guys always provide such hot crowds and can make even the most lackluster matchup better because of the heat you provide.

[Dan97LHS]

Boy, Piper was really messed up that night. Maybe that is how he really was back in the days.

[redwhiteandtrue]

anybody else think tht the warlord looks kinda like snitsky

[Plushtar]

The warlord actually bathes and looks more ilke a walrus.

[ImanHitman]

I want to have the Rampage introduction song. Its amazing :)

[ArnoldSwarzeneggar75]

How did it go wrong?

[netoon151]

Ring announcer called the Warlord, Jim The Anvil Neidhart & played the wrong entrance music.

[MeAndMyRC]

Piper is flying higher than a 747

[Carlitojohn1]

i live 5 mins from the arena this event took place. it got knocked down now.

[ashes1one]

Where was it mate?

[LeeDaBeeV2]

lol

[rangel20]

I love Piper having the balls to be out of his mind on coke in front of the boss.

[travdiddy84]

Cocaine's a hell of a drug

[dansun757]

@rangel20 hhahaha so true

[dillkid2000]

I wonder if they edited it out for the VHS release. But anything can go wrong...LIVE! I remembr at Backlash 2006 when Carlito just beat Chris Master's, and aria was interviewig someone, and she said u must be up set that Carlito just lost

[Kenmega]

OMG! I remember when the WWF PPVs were shown on Sky Movies in the early 90's! MEMORIES! :)

[salader1]

I bet The Fink wouldnt have got it wrong. LOL

[helmsly2010]

lol oh wow. Cool to see the old sky movies logo again too.
