You wake up Sunday morning. You’ve got to work Yokozuna and Bulldog in a six man tag. Yoko can barely move. Bulldog’s out of his mind on pain pills. And then you see rather than wash his singlet, Vader’s just wearing it back to front.

Vader, Bloody Vader.

Anyone have any idea what 'Vader, Bloody Vader" is referencing? Feels like it's a pun or a play on something famous, but I can't place it.

There was a callback, too, with

, in which a smile was infamously lost.

Or it might well have been the U2 song “Sunday Bloody Sunday” but I like my attribution better ?

Someone at WWE’s media team definitely read the thread on videos didn’t they?

Disappointingly it's just all the Coliseum Videos they've already uploaded to the channel anyway.

It's safe to say a lot of us will be happy with the latest WWE Vault release ?

4 and half hours of Terry Funk.

Ugh that WWE Vault channel. Reuploading Coliseum Videos they've already got up, BUT THEN putting up a 4 hour Terry Funk compilation. Gaslighting little shit of a channel.

Well, just watched the greatest match either Flair or Funk had, then a segment of Shotgun Saturday Night that I rushed to tape off DSF back in the day, now a mostly uncensored (except for Lance's quick drags) empty arena match!

It's not technically from the vault but this 40 second clip on X stunned me for a moment:

Triple H's calf (19 seconds) looks absolutely horrific. I remember Triple H vs. Cactus Jack at the 2000 Royal Rumble being a brilliant watch at the time but not as brutal as the injuries suggest. I haven't seen it since so I'm going to give it a watch later on. 

I do enjoy these snippets and footage of the happenings backstage (back in the day) fascinating.

That puncture wound was from a stray bit of wood on that wooden pallet he gets suplexed on. You can see where it happens and it's absolutely rank!

That footage of Foley & HHH was an extra on the Rumble 2000 DVD, there was also one of Hunter getting the puncture wound sewn up and explaining to the doc how it happened (on the pallet as Chili says!) 

That Funk compilation should be made mandatory viewing for anyone who decides they want to train to be a wrestler. Or indeed, anyone who wants to critique wrestling on TwitX.
