STW #137- Royal Rumble 1999


The WWF’s business has never been hotter and the talk of the industry is Austin-McMahon. Vince put a $100,000 bounty to hedge his bets that Austin never becomes Champion again…

plus he finds himself in the Royal Rumble? Yes, Vince competed in this Rumble! This is also the year where we saw the first woman compete in the Royal Rumble for the very first time when Chyna comes in at #30! We cover the news and notes heading into the show, detail the business side of the company, discuss the ratings streak that RAW was on, and of course we can’t skip the infamous “I Quit!” match between Mankind and Rock.

  1. Even though Vince winning seemed stupid, it actually made sense, because in time he got his comeuppance. Thatโ€™s why Shane and Stephanie are both insufferable, because they only want to put themselves over.

  2. Everything is true
    God's an astronaut
    Oz IS over the rainbow … and Midian is where the monsters live.

    On a side note I went to See Bruce in Houston but my Dumbass came to the event late with my Girlfriend BUT I still got to shake his hand.

  5. Why is the Rumble in the Bronx picture used for this video?? The Rumble 99 didn't take place in the Bronx, it took place in Anaheim, CA (my hometown).
