The Royal Rumble 1998

[ryuhoshi23]

The good old heavy metal themes in wwe!

[too66fast]

MVP of the rumble = The Rock!

[jackyorton10]

in 1998 for me the rock didn't was a champion

[BigTheNoodlez]

J/k y would he tell u that...

[jammiewilson94]

RIP Owen Hart

[DiabloFenatic]

Is that Ron Jeremy at 8:12 to 8:16 ? The third guy from the top right hand corner. The one with the long hair and mustache.

[aussiesaint3412]

@DiabloFenatic I think so

[Pooledogg]

Who was the Champion here?

[antsman88]

i loved Foley's 3 seperate entrances in this rumble!

[cstring420]

why are they dubbing cactus jack's music? I have this on store bought vhs. I should just watch that.

[YoungKenny]

@cstring420 I have absolutely no idea why you would feel the need to tell me this.

[BigTheNoodlez]

@YoungKenny Wow what a dickhead...  Ur probably so cool

[TheSilent12]

Thank god for videos like that , videos of shows , series , moments , matches of the past century.Everytime I am bored , I take some snack , something to drink and watch old WWE(WWF) matches that I loved watching as a kid or missed due school.

And now some rich old perverts want to take that away from me? NO WAY!!!!

If they accept this bullshit , I will become the biggest copyrights abuser and I don't care about it! Arrest me , Condemn me , Kill me! I will never be your slave you F*** cunts!

[cryhwks]

I wonder who was 22?

[dirtydierks]

@cryhwks Skull was supposed to be 22. Skull never made it to the ring because he was attacked by Los Boricuas prior to the Royal Rumble match because they had mistaken him for Stone Cold Steve Austin.

[sweatervestking]

I liked the attitude era, but god, a lot of those guys can't wrestle for shit.

[farmer3v3]

because Stone Cold says so.......

[Noohispro]

Soo Mick foley fought in the rumble 3 times?

[2010Speeder]

@Noohispro Yes cactus jack, Mankind, and Dude love!

[redchris33]

this isent from1998...in 98' i twas WWF..not WWE..dubazz

[khrispykhicken]

@redchris33 If you listen at the start the announcer says "1998 royal rumble" its off a dvd -_-

[JACOBXSMITH]

I love these old PPV's it's better than this new age shit they have now

[beatngo710]

Lol I love how crowds can never keep time when counting or clapping to songs...

[checkmebooth]

chainsaw charlie. what in the fuck

[KHII]

what the hell was Marc Mero doing the entire time

[markanderson1988]

i'm guessing the WWE dubbed over cactus jack's entrance theme because it's a character that they dont hold the licensing rights too... beyond stupid

[LifezATrip]

Lol "watch the chainsaw watch the chain saw!!" Even tho theres no blade, Found that funny as a kid

[iDSamZz]

FAAKE

[Nightwing690]

King was such a stupid bastard, he was so annoying with his bullshit commentary back then

[swordmeister93]

They totally fucked up Cactus Jack's theme.

[CleveDavis89]

1:02:23 Cole Stone, Mike?

It's Stone Cold.

What?

Stone Cold.

What?

Stone Cold.

What?

That man's name is Stone Cold

[kunal62431]

[maccai3]

39:34 mark henry is handling the big johnson

[thecompton01]

Nation had the Rock, Mark Henry, D-Lo, the Godfather, and Faarooq. Ah the good old days. One of the best rumbles.

[hhhbrother1]

[ThePosition123]

[ShockedSoundwave]

1998 Royal rumble Intercontinental Champion The Rock make his entrance at #4

2012 Royal rumble Intercontinental Champion Cody Rhodes make his entrance at #4 too!

[SHIZZNITIFIED]

1:02:20 Did Mike just call him Cone Stole?

[ilovewwelottz]

The Rattlesnake vs The Viper for WrestleMania XXVIII. Who's with me?

[Spideymrw]

@ilovewwelottz as good as that would be stone cold isn't going to do a WM match unless he gets the main event like Rock vs Cena....Stone Cold said he wants CM Punk at WM so I think Austin vs Punk WM 29 is going to happen

[nickolasthegame9]

the rock vs stone cold steve austin legendario

[abdou69h]

The Texas Rattlesnake is the winner of the royal rumble. Hell Yeah!

[l3gin2d]

41:34 G string.

[WolfBrother1983]

A few notes after reading other comments:

8 Ball & Skull are better known as Ron & Don Harris. They were most successful in later years WCW. They had also been the Blu Brothers in the WWF in 1995.

To those critisizing the talent in the ring: This is like most Royal Rumbles. Seldom do you have a year where the match is loaded with huge stars.

[MrSwagg1123]

haha we got 4 haters.



[DKrules9]

Why did Jeff Jarrett attack Owen anyway?  Was there some storyline going on between them that I'm missing?

[jeffbrister2004]

@DKrules9 there was nothing going on between owen and jeff before that night. and then there was still nothing after that night. i think they just needed an excuse to have owen be attacked and then have him run back in later. plus jim cornette was doing a nwa invasion thing. maybe that was part of it.

[DKrules9]

@jeffbrister2004 it seems pointless, since HHH&Chyna would later eliminate him. why not have chyna attack him as he came out, then hhh attack him later. i do recall jeff & owen wrestling on WWE superstars after and owen putting cornette in the sharpshooter. i can only assume cornette offered owen a spot in his Nwa stable, owen refusing & thus the attack from jeff, but they never aired that.

[jeffbrister2004]

@DKrules9 i find it kinda ironic because at the next year's royal rumble owen and jeff were tag team champions lol.

[Spideymrw]

@DKrules9 i vaguely remember it but it had something to do with owen not believing the hardys were worth anything as they were new at this time

[DKrules9]

if the 2012 Royal Rumble were this entertaining, it wouldn't have sucked.

[DKrules9]

How did WWE lose the rights to Cactus Jack's theme? They redubbed it for this video

[VanderTheGreat]

44:15

[THEMEGADEVILOFUTUBE1]

cool

[atann6900]

08:52 WTF ?!

[cufsmaster]

[c0ckNockeR]

Mrs. Foley's Baby Boy!

[NotAShitWillBeGiven]

You heard Tyson, everyone... Cold Stone is the man!

[cornafeanlawd]

[brutalturn]

whats Up With All The Hill Billies?

[Fabio1349]

this rumble was really really good!!!

[lego88]

shockin cactus jack music.....

[AALECXSThe]

i wish this would happen in 2012 :D:D

[BreadMan1455]

LMAO@ Handling the big Johnson!

[PaulStevensUK]

This is awesome! :)

[whitfieldjoshua2]

I never even realized that hbk & taker's match came after this RR. Was this the first and only time?

[alserjedocs]

Those were wrestlers not PG models

[barter2056]

I'm watching this before Royal Rumble 2012.

[TheDksj1987]

@barter2056 why would anyone vote down the people wouldnt of voted down if they hadnt watched it cuz you have to have the page running or atleast paused so either way theyve visited this page????? fucking faggots!

[SuperDeadmaniac]

this rumble match was so much better than the 1997 one.

[karl100589]

@SuperDeadmaniac If we're going by everything prior to Bret entering I'd agree with you, but the show jumps up a level once Bret enters. Added to that it was rather unpredictable, compare 97 where nobody really had an idea who was going to win with 1998, where even Ray Charles could see Austin was going to win.

[TIZIANOCONTESSA]

Goldust was ridicoulous

[RumbleT96]

Mark Henry looks so diffrent.. lol XD

[izzybaby167]

The rock and Austin made it hot

[tarantula152]

This is my fav RR

[saintsfan138]

@MrShinSyn Most likely so.

[rndmchnnl]

Fantastic quality, too bad this is the dubbed version :(

[glitchuser4]

45:50 People believe those were punches.....

[Satanslayer]

They never mention of SKULL's absence in the Rumble.

[SuperGilberto1977]

why is JR winking?

[soldierside365]

@SuperGilberto1977

he has bells paulsy, paralysis of facial muscles

[superrobotmunkyman]

0:39:30 lol handeling the big johnson

[Solitude102]

26:50 - Rage Mode Activated.

[cranix2008santos]

man this brings back memorys.fucking miss the good old days of wrestling

[TheDarkDawn3312]

Number 22?

[kRoniKBuD6030]

watching this 14 years from now makes me wonder how in the hell did i think wrestling was real. all i can say is UFC is going to take over and this shit would only be for young kids.

[Saturninefilms]

@kRoniKBuD6030 You are a fucking idiot. Professional wrestling is theater. If you thought they were really getting hurt in there, then the joke is on you. What kind of douchebag likes watching someone get seriously injured? You are everything wrong with the planet, sir.

[locallistener]

@Saturninefilms Hey, Cody, settle down.

[FeneGrenkle]

@Saturninefilms I did not know Cody likes wrestling. I too like Wrestling Cody.

[seannaesseannaes]

@Saturninefilms sorry but you are wrong here, all the athleticism and injuries are real, most blood is fake, and the feud is fake, but if you look into the history you will find that wrestling is in fact real but they where to serious and no one watched, so they made fake feuds and choreographed cooler fights, but if you think a chop does not hurt in real life then i encourage you to come by takedown MMA in Toronto Canada and i will personally indulge you haha but i do agree with your 2nd point

[vandermade24]

@Saturninefilms

Yeah, they're not getting seriously injured, but they're hurting out there. The punches are fake as shit but taking all those bumps takes it's toll. In my opinion ECW had the greatest matches ever and their guys took the stiffest shots.

Just look at any Sabu match. The guy kills himself every time he's in the ring.

I just looked down at the comment you responded to and realized my comment is pointless. I already typed all this shit though so i'm stickin to it.

[IHaveYourSealab]

@Saturninefilms

Cody, you're all indie and shit. You haven't seen The Wrestler with Mickey Rourke? The injuries are among struggling relationships and poverty as the central theme. Ya dope.

[TheDksj1987]

@IHaveYourSealab and did you know the wrestler and the film was fake YA DOPE!

[IHaveYourSealab]

@TheDksj1987 Am I the only one who uses the internet to learn more about things? Roddy fucking Piper among other non famous wrestlers have commented on the similarities of their lives and that movie. They've lived out of cars, they've been poor and old-injured. Piper was a an episode of Sunny in Philadelphia portraying just that! Probably in reference to that time in his life and the movie The Wrestler. facepalm sir.

[IHaveYourSealab]

@TheDksj1987 you just stick to your interbutt for commenting on subjects so less rooms are left in awkward silences

[InterestingFella]

@Saturninefilms Cody's a fan of wrestling? I like you even more now. (No Homo)

[TheDksj1987]

@Saturninefilms people get hurt in wrestling what the hell are you on about? you sir are getting a thumbs down!

[glitchuser4]

@TheDksj1987 If they got hurt, it'd be illegal. I'm sorry you believe this pile of American feces.

[TheDksj1987]

@glitchuser4 who said i believe?? just kmt and stfu please

[glitchuser4]

@TheDksj1987 Congratulations, I had to look up kmt. If you believe people get hurt -"people get hurt in wrestling" - then my stance remains the same....

[Zsmart]

@Saturninefilms Bit harsh Cody?

[LilGRaven]

@Saturninefilms they do get hurt sometimes. you know that right. its all for the money and the entertainment for us :)

[2WaTaNgUy2]

@Saturninefilms and you my friend are stupid for thinking its all fake... its not .. its scripted not fake.. you think body slams are fake and dont hurt? it obv does hurt but they plan what they are going to to do... so everyone its not fake its scripted...

[ilovebadchicks]

@Saturninefilms There's many things wrong with what you just said. There is a reason why they say don't try this at home. Because they are professionals, and they DO in fact get hurt many times, and seriously injured. And plus, there is UFC in existance, and people watch that, and UFC is 100% real.

[kRoniKBuD6030]

@Saturninefilms Your a fucking idiot becasue i was 10 when i first watched this shit and for you to take offence like a little bitch over some bullshit acting. fuck me people just can't grow up.

[TimDJ84]

"And Mark Henry is handling the big Johnson" lol I heard he likes to do that in his free time.

[TimDJ84]

The second person is Terry Funk.....really should know who he is...

[Grayfox4]

this is embarrasing !!! a real fighter like tyson seeing this fake and gay crap! lol

[anthonyteague11]

worst rumble ever.

[anthonyteague11]

DIE ROCKY DIE! i've hated that man since his debut in 1996.i never liked Cena,but i hope Cena brakes the Rocks neck April 1.

[Necrocide187]
