| 0:00.0 | Let us not mince our words. The King of the Ring 1995, but the wrong thing there is meant |
| 0:13.6 | to say that in the King of the Ring, is one of the worst WWE paid reviews ever. It is |
| 0:18.6 | filled with stupid matches, it is filled with stupid finishes, and it is filled with |
| 0:22.9 | a stupid King of the Ring winner, which nobody wanted to see other than Vincent Kennedy |
| 0:27.5 | McPain. If you were looking for ways to fall asleep, this is the show for you, and all you |
| 0:32.0 | need to know is that it actually went off air 11 minutes early, and did anybody complain |
| 0:36.9 | no they didn't they probably sit there going, wow, hey, now I get to go to bed. It just |
| 0:41.1 | sums up all of WWE's problems at the time, because it is quite clear they have no idea |

| 1:04.4 | I want to be president, I want to be president, now look it is really entertaining, and I love |

| 1:13.6 | is the way to do it. Any other real thing to look from this period |
| 1:16.4 | in terms of outside of the show, is that one Dustin Rhodes was about to sign for the promotion, |
| 1:22.0 | here we are all these years later, and he is still kicking ass, what an underrated hero. |
| 1:28.2 | So in front of 16,000 people, even though WWF said it was 19,000 people, and 150,000 people |
| 1:34.9 | are babe of you, it is the King of the Ring 1995, and thanks very much for making me do this, |
| 1:41.0 | I just presume you hate me, let's up those doubts. The best part of the King of the Ring 1995 |
| 1:46.9 | is the opening video, when a crazed Vince McMahon just screams as a blimp flies over Philadelphia, |
