All language subtitles for WWE Untold s02e04 Shane and.Angle Brutal Battle

You're in battle, you're drilling so
high, and again, the crowd is pumping

through your system.

You've always just had the mentality of,
you start slipping, you gotta finish

it.

We just knew we had a lot to prove. We
did everything we could to show that we

could carry a show.

In other words, we weren't the main
event, but we should have been. People

never, ever forget it because of the
sheer totality of brutality.

in that match from two guys that, in
most people's eyes, perception -wise,

shouldn't have had that kind of a match.

They were just hitting each other with
everything. It was just, it wasn't, it

definitely wasn't pretty. Because Shane,
you know, he would have took anything.

He just wanted to prove himself that he
can go toe -to -toe, and he did that

night.

You're in there and just... beat the
crap out of each other and everything

can do, the crowd is behind. That's one
of the things that kept me going.

Let's finish this thing.

I do remember both Kurt and Shane
wanting to actually work with each

other.

trying to come up with a logical
scenario for us to get there. I mean,

medals with Kurt is always an easy one.

Here comes the money!

Here comes the money!

Dollar, dollar, dollar.

Paulus, save me, man!

Kurt, at the time, was...

Kind of goody -two -shoes, you know, the
three I's. And by that time, you have

the entitled kid, meaning me.

You know, just feel like, oh, my God,
you know, make these gold medals a big

deal. You know, which is obviously the
antithesis of winning an Olympic gold

medal. So to come in, kind of interrupt
it, bust his chops, and was like, let's

see where this goes.

It worked well. You know, curve didn't
do.

Too, too much, but then Kurt Demme, the
angle slam off the podium.

Oh, my God! I got the angle slam from
atop the metal stand!

Kurt Angle slamming, and now he's got
the ankle lock on Shane McMahon!

Kurt Angle's got the ankle lock on the
owner of WCW!

And we were off to the races at that
point.

It was the boss's son, and here's a
cocky little arrogant...

Kid that, you know, is going after a guy
that has got credentials out the ass in

Kurt Angle. Kurt, I mean, he was on
fire.

So let's just let him really adapt it
quickly to the business. I mean, Kurt is

just, as everyone is well aware, just
such a natural coming from his, you

amateur background into WWE.

But it wasn't just what Kurt can do
physically. It was also Kurt's

to put himself out there emotionally
that really catapulted him into success.

So Shea McMahon, since you happen to be
from the main streets of Greenwich,

I, Kurt Angle, challenge you, Shea
McMahon, the king of the ring, to a

street fight.

What?

Well, the idea of the match as well was
to give everyone something different and

to make that match unique and a card
full of a lot of wrestling matches.

So they had to pull out a lot of things
that you couldn't do in an ordinary

match.

Al Snow helped put it together, and I
will tell you, he was phenomenal.

Al was really good at those hardcore
matches, and Al was somebody who thought

outside of the box and thought a little
differently.

I remember Shane kind of getting in
touch with me and asking me if I'd be

willing to work with him and train him
in preparing for his upcoming match with

Kurt Angle. I was flattered to be asked
and honored to do so.

Then started to meet Shane to work with
him and get him ready.

And occasionally, Kurt would drop in as
well. And we had a great time.

Again, we both did see this as a huge
opportunity because when you get a

platform to be able to showcase your
talent, well, guess what? You need to

the door down.

Just don't knock on it. Just kick it
down.

It was fish out of water. And Kurt
Angle, the Olympic gold medalist, this

wrestler, to see how he would react.
Now, all of a sudden, you're putting a

weapon in his hand.

And, yes, his body's a weapon, but then
all of a sudden he has a kendo stick.

That's even scarier.

It had all the makings of it to be
something very special. But then again,

know, there weren't a lot of these types
of matches, specifically in WWE, that

people could point to. So it was a
little bit of an unknown.

Kurt is so talented and so open to
trying things and doing things.

Shane is fearless.

He quite honestly is. That really helped
in teaching Shane some of the mechanics

of certain things that he wanted to do
during the match.

I distinctly remember him wanting to
learn to do the shooting star press.

That's a difficult move for an
accomplished person who's pretty agile

used to doing aerial -type moves.

I took Shane step by step.

Through the process, you wouldn't stop.
You wouldn't just go up and try and give

up. You just, you know, would repeatedly
do it over and over again.

And I ended up, was able to learn, you
know, how to be the shooting star

president. We used to have that.

Oh, my God!

Shane McMahon, the shooting star!

Kurt and I had the opportunity. It was
in New Jersey. It was king of the rink.

How do you take on an Olympic gold
medalist? Well, you try to outsmart him.

you put him in two matches prior to, to
tire him out.

I did not prepare for the other matches,
you know, with Christian

and Edge earlier that night on the pay
-per -view.

You know,

I took away his second one, his second
victory.

and second match.

And I felt like if the third wasn't
nearly as good, I still had a good

But I also knew what was in this match.

And if we were able to complete the
match as planned, I knew it would be a

stealer. The following contest scheduled
for one fall is a street fight!

I remember when I got in the ring with
Shane and we started going at it.

He punched me, and he opened up my eye.
I had to get like six stitches of my

eye. And I remember seeing the blood,
and I wiped the blood off my face. And I

said, look what you did to me, you MF
-er.

I'm going to kick your ass.

Kirk came in like a house of fire.

You know, he was ready to go. He was
like, woo -hoo, just going for a ride.

like, endure, endure, endure.

But how, again, do you?

take on someone with such specialized
skill sets as Kurt Angle. Well, you

try to do what he does. I was like, all
right, well, let's switch around to

stuff that he has no idea what it's
going to be like.

And then that's when we started
introducing, as I will say, equalizers.

Kurt has never been hit

with any of those things.

You know, literally, we pulled out
everything.

There was no kitchen sink, but there
might as well have been in there.

And then when we broke out the weapons,
it just took the match to a whole

different level. Here we are, you know,
beating the crap out of each other.

No disqualifications.

No count -outs here in this street
fight.

I just pick him up, boom, suplex. All of
a sudden he hit me. He goes, oh, my

God. I was like, oh. I looked up and I
could see agony.

I mean, you know, we were already beat
to hell, but this was another level. And

I'm looking at him and he says, I think
I just broke my tailbone. And I said,

okay, that's great.

I said, get up.

I remember Kurt was hurt there, too.

At that point, I didn't know if he broke
his tailbone.

I didn't know anything like that.

I remember focusing on Shane at that
time.

It happened at the worst possible time
because when I hit, that's what I

I had was a broken tailbone. It was
cracked.

I mean, it wasn't broken off. I cracked
it pretty good.

But the next spot was me throwing Shane
through the glass.

These men in a very dangerous,
precarious situation in position here,

the expose of concrete floor.

He eventually got me in a belly belly
through the glass, but that didn't work

the first couple of times. So part of
that was Kurt didn't have his usual

because he had just hurt his tailbone.

Right in front of the king of the ring
set.

Shane McMahon thrown with a simplex
upside down.

The problem with that is I had to arch
my hips to get Shane through this glass.

I couldn't do it because it hurt too
much.

So I couldn't give a lot of thrust when
I threw Shane. The second problem is

they had the wrong glass.

The guy that was supposed to have the
right panel there so you would break.

had actually reinforced the panel so
that it wouldn't break during the pyro.

So instead of having a panel that would
have gone easily, they had basically

painted over it with kind of a lacquer
so that it would hold together a little

more firmly for the pyro. Well, it was
reinforced pretty damn well. It didn't

shatter for the pyro, and it didn't
shatter when it was supposed to either.

Gee, screw me.

And I hit that glass, and that glass was
so hard. I hit it, and, you know, not

knowing anything, because it's all
surreal, it was just upside down, and

like a lawn dart came right down on my
head on the concrete.

It was boom, so I was like, you know, I
could hear all the wonky sounds from it.

You know, it was like, everybody sounds
like Charlie Brown for a second. You

know, like, womp, womp, womp. I was
like, real boy.

Shane's head hit the floor. You could
hear it, the whole sound throughout the

whole arena.

It was really loud.

And the fans even responded like... And

then finally, I said something in his
ear. I called him a

wuss, basically, for lack of a better
word. And all of a sudden, he got that

fire in his eyes. I'm like, oh, I know
what I'm going through now.

And I went flying through.

Shane McMahon fell in a belly suplex.

The overhead burst through the blast in
the concrete.

And Angle now, from that shattered
blast, is bleeding from his shoulder.

Vince wanted it stopped.

And his only way to communicate that was
through me.

And the only way for me to communicate
that was to the referee that I'm

And I'm telling them over and over and
over again. At one point in the match, I

went to the entry lane and was yelling
at the referee, don't do that again.

Don't do it again.

Hey, I'm going, damn it. Come on. Oh,
no.

Come on. Come on.

So on the way out, I went to suplex him
again.

He didn't go through again, and I just
decided, screw this, I'm going to throw

face first through.

Dangling man, head and face first right
through that glass.

Probably the hardest thing to watch
because I knew how bad they wanted it,

also knew how painful it was.

But for me, living it on the other side
with Vince wanting to strangle me,

because he had no one else to strangle
me. Couldn't go out and grab Kurt.

So I was the next best thing.

I remember Vince was cussing up a storm
and telling him, don't put him through

the glass again.

He kept saying F words, F bombs.

And I'm hearing Vince in the background.
I'm like, holy shit. I'm like, Kurt, do

not put Shane through this glass again.
Do not try to put him through this glass

again. I don't care if Vince.

Probably would have walked out on stage.

They were going to get that in.

I remember later on talking to Kurt.
Kurt, did you not hear me? I was telling

him 10 times, don't put the glass.

He goes, oh, I can't hear off this side
of the ear.

When did that happen? He's like, oh,
years ago.

He goes, yeah, I can't hear nothing off
that ear.

I put Shane on that cart and I...

carted him down to the ring, and, I
mean, he was bleeding so much.

I beat the crap out of him. He's landing
on concrete floors. I remember him

kicking out of the count.

Angle's got the leg. My God, please.

I've got pain in the hand.

Refuses to lose.

Thank God he kicked because I didn't
want to count him. I was proud of him.

You're really feeling the crowd now.

because they're like, yes, like, it
didn't end. Let's keep it going.

It's one of those things when it's
really working and great. You don't want

to end. You're like, oh, my God, that
was great.

And then we, you know, we finished it up
from there.

You can hear that lumber.

Wood on glass here.

Now what can I go do?

There was a small piece of plywood
board. They put it up on top of the

looked over, and I'm sitting there, and
I'm trying to...

Come on, bring it down, get it down.

And I seen the edge of this board just
falling right off the rope.

And then both them guys, I just grabbed
it, just held it, trying to count it,

make it not noticeable that I'm holding
this piece of wood.

And thank God, because that board was,
they were just going to collapse right

from the top rope.

And that was a really high angle slam, I
remember, because I was way up there.

It seemed like I never was going to hit
the ground.

Oh, no. It's the angle swing.

We're on the top.

Kurt Angle scored with the angle swing.

I remember Mike Keough on the count of
three. One, two, three.

And Kurt said to me, thank God.

He goes, thank God that's over.

And he rolled over.

And I started chuckling, you know,
inside. I was like, man, but we nailed

will sum up in two words the end of the
match and it being over. Thank God.

I just was thankful that the match was
over and that both guys were able to

walk. I never saw Vince.

All I know is that he was pretty pissed
off.

I know that Vince didn't really want to
see me or Shane. He was just going to

let himself calm down.

If he would have talked to us, he would
have treated us like a father, and he

probably would have whipped our butts
and told us that we did the wrong thing.

My dad was not there.

He was so upset that he had to...

excuse himself for a little while i'll
go we'll go cool off a little bit i had

stashed a couple of uh a couple of beers
on ice curbing from pittsburgh there's

this there's this local brand called
iron city light i was like all right i

that man i gotta i gotta clink a beer
with kurt so we're both in the we're

in the trainer's room with the doctors
looking at us

You know, like idiots who are laughing.
All right, you going to the hospital?

Great.

See you.

Like, he's off.

They're probably going to take me. You
know, they get ready. But we're still

high -fiving each other. It was a really
special moment.

I'm glad I did something like that
because it's probably the only thing in

career I probably would have never done.

And I'm not a gimmick guy. I don't like
gimmicks. I don't like doing gimmick

matches.

I like wrestling straight up. That's
what I do. That's what I'm best at.

But I'm very proud of this match.

It went the way they wanted, when they
wanted, did exactly what they wanted,

what they wanted from the audience at
the right time for the reason from

beginning to end. I'm so incredibly
flattered and honored and proud of what

helped do.

I was glad to get through that match.

And the ways that I helped throughout
that match, whether it was the boards or

being there for him. It just makes you
extremely proud. You couldn't have asked

for two more dedicated performers.

This was two guys who were determined to
be the very best at what they did. They

gelled, they got along together, and
they were able to create this memory

people will never forget.

The match for me is one of those things
where Kurt and I bonded. You go through

something like that, and you entertained
to the fullest. That's the ultimate

goal, and man, was it a ride.
