WWF Survivor Series 1998 | DEADLOCK Sumn Gonna Happen #55

'CAUSE IT'S A DEADLY GAME!

On this edition of SGH, we take it back to 1998 with the Survivor Series: Deadly Game! There isn't really much to do with the Survivor Series concept on this one, as more important matters are at stake; like crowning a new WWF Champion! Many men in many matches (for not much time) compete to find ourselves a new champion of the company. There is a tag match at some point, but maybe it would have been better off without it. All of that, and so much more!

“No Heat and No Story” Born to edge forced to cope

Man, this show was something. Really fun to see the whole story play out. Poor Mankind at the end so confused because he's just a puppy. Austin shit canning the title had me howling. Shamrock vs Rock. All timer show.

Cali Jester

Ima need that scooby doo & shaggy bit on the regular LMAO

CJExtreme98

Rock having top surgery is one of my favorite fun facts to piss off transphobes with

TheDman0310 actually is here to fuck spiders, mate

Tracksuit Rock is coming pretty soon after this. He got breast reduction surgery and wrestled in the tracksuit to cover the scares. Also in my head Corporate Rock was a long running year long angle but it only goes from here to Mania 15. That's what four months?

Gerard Smith

so confused when brisco and patterson came out, was expecting Real American...

Cousin Jasper

Russo should have known better than to do that BEFORE the Austin program then, of course he’s not going to feud with the top guy after that

Vera T

“Kane is a dentist…YOU SICK SONS OF BITCHES” had me dying lmao

Guane Dill vs. Gill Boldberg in a ForHims on a pole match

Funny part about Mero being sable bombed, Stone Cold refused to go into a program with him due to this.

Philos Cult

The funny thing is, I think Bossman was supposed to actually be the one to hit Steve with the chair. Hahaha. Steve told a story that Bossman was supposed to hit him, but never came out because he was bullshitting and hanging out (no pun intended) with Undertaker backstage. 😂😂😂 He didn’t say which show, but I think it was this one after putting two and two together.

Jawnny Smells.........Gooooooood.........Lord! He smells like DICK THE COCK JOHNSON'S perverted cousin RICK THE CHEESE REESE

If Shaggy and Scooby show up during the I Quit Match, I'm going to lose my fucking mind.

BigJ

Jim Johnston was fuckin' cookin' with this theme.

No Gimmicks Needed, Steve the Samurai

Actually they're probably cleaned up versions of the WWE home video releases. Hence the censoring but no blurring. As Tagged Classics were by Silver Vision the European distributor who had the masters so they're copies didn't have the WWF logo blurred out. As when the network launched it was too much footage to go that way. The OSW lads did a good explainer on one of there New Gen reviews either Survivor Series 92 or Mania 9. Even has its own subheading on the wiki page https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/WWE_Tagged_Classics

Kai Eastwood

Between this event, a possible 99 Rumble in January and a possible Saint valentines day massacre in February, the next few SGH episodes are going to be all timers!

Happy Tiger Snugglefur

I don't think a PPV that was done JUST to push a single story has ever been done more successfully than this one, a true all timer event!

Happy Tiger Snugglefur

We need Royal Rumble 99’ or Wrestlemania XV SGH soon.

DUUUVALL LOVES DEADLOCK! COMES TO FLORIDA SOON

How is al not champion by now

Scotty too hottie Dudley

I always figured Head WAS a concept taken from a comic, DV8, the crazy janitor Sideways Bob talks to and is in love with a mannequin head, that started not long before Al started doing this act

Vera T

Makes me want Wrestlemania 15 for SGH

CJExtreme98

The Head gimmick is that lame ass gimmick a high school kid would come up with because he saw something similar in a comic. Another problem was that they introduced this character to the masses cold. They still do that shit today with indie guys. They would be better off resetting them, but then again it’s one of those mental things where once you do something , and you try to do it one more time, your heart won’t be in it again. That last bit goes with Bookers who never created the gimmick in the first place. They’ll never have the heart to actually go through it one more time. But if you truly think about it. The territories had no issue with it. Recycling videos from other territories, and slowly going through the gimmicks just to get the fans used to it. That shows the difference between a creative writing process, and a territory booker who just wants this hot act on his program.

Don Knott Steiner

If I recall correctly, Mankind switched from the brown shirt to a dress shirt because Dude Love started to wear that when he went corporate. But Dude Love got fired, but Mankind… didn’t get fired? So Mankind just decided to wear that from after that. Foley lore goes crazy man

Malek Douglas

Okay, if you want to see a Rock and HHH match you might enjoy, you can try out their ladder match at Summerslam '98.

BigJ

I feel like y'all are being too harsh to Al Snow. After all, according to the best-kept secret in wrestling Al Snow, Al Snow is the best-kept secret in wrestling. The head gimmick was so genius and transformative and entirely due to Al Snow's wrestling iq.

Dexter LeRuez

"Mark Henry's two biggest claims to fame: the 1996 Olympics, and his sexual harassment lawsuit filed against Chyna" is the wildest call of JR's career.

Darren Williams

I have that Deadly Games chair!

Juan Ramos

The weird ass sound in Al Snow’s theme is supposed to be Head saying “I am the one in control” or something like that but it’s backwards. I swear to God that I vouch for him being good in ECW the same year, he was so fucking over

Malek Douglas

ok ive heard you guys and jawnny on nl talk about triple threat 3 legal matches and still thought it could be done with some care but that WORLD TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH had me dying laughing how bad everything was down to the finish

truth

I'm in fucking tears from the Scooby Doo impressions holy shit.

Samoa Joe Mama

i believe for this PPV, Rumble 99, Wrestlemania XIV and a few more PPVs they're using an old VHS rip or the tagged classics version that has the middle fingers censored. In some of them it cuts out any mention to WWF as well.

His career and legacy are so different if Vince doesn’t fall for his wife

Vera T

Vince introducing Duane Gill is one of my favorite moments ever in wrestling, he couldn’t have possibly given more undue gravity to the endeavor.

Vera T

He’s a student of the game!

Armando J. Mendoza

Scummy Mankind shoot pinning Guane Dill just because he didn't wanna put the kid over. SMH.

Jordan gold

It's nice to know that there's a definitive match to point to that demonstrates why multi-team matches with one in from each team don't work

FalconX9K

“By the way, if you run into stone cold, give him one of these 🖕for me” Bossman loved that shit!

SteveBlackmanIsABitch……….HahaNowImGonnaClipThatAndSendItToSteveBlackmanAndHesGonnaKickYourAss
