DEADLOCK Podcast #246 (Video)
Following WWE Backlash 2005 where Batista defeated Triple H to retain his WWE World Heavyweight Championship, Eric Bischoff made a new tournament to crown a number one contender for the title. This is the Gold Rush Tournament. It was a mystery on who was facing. One wrestler would make their entrance and then find out who they were facing right in that ring. This features one of the best superkicks of all time by Shawn Michaels. It is the one where Shelton Benjamin does a springboard and eats a ]Sweet Chin Music right to the jaw. It really is something you have to see. The tournament also features Kane vs Christian, Edge vs Jericho, and Triple H vs Chris Benoit. Plus, fallout from backlash where Hulk Hogan and Shawn Michaels teamed for the very first time against Muhammad Hassan and Daivari!

Ahhh that's me yelling
In my mind a gold rush match is a six man match where whoever has the last pin by the end of a timer wins
I think that’s a championship scramble
James with the Whitest Kids You Know reference killed me. "Rewind the play five minutes because that fat piece of shit wouldn't stop talking!"
I hope they watch the episode where Matt Hardy returns to promote ROH.
where's McMahon in durag?
HBK vs Shelton is an all time favorite match of mine. I distinctly remember this match teaching me how to tell a story in the ring. Shawn's slow descent from lovable babyface into "the old Shawn Michaels" because he was facing a younger, more athletic wrestler was a storytelling masterpiece.
The image of Simon Dean turning into Scott Steiner (Bruce Banner/Hulk style) whenever he encounters a FAT SAMM'ABITCH has been cracking me up for hours 😂
Acid bomb.
