Vince McMahon’s ICONIC “Life Sucks (And Then You Die)” Promo | WWE SmackDown 5/13/00 Review

This week on Tales from the Attitude Era, former WWF writer Tommy Blacha and co-host Rob Pasbani review the May 11, 2000, episode of SmackDown from New Haven, CT. With The Rock away filming The Mummy Returns, Vince McMahon takes center stage to deliver his iconic, scathing “Life Sucks (And Then You Die)” promo to the live audience.

The McMahon-Helmsley regime books a chaotic night, culminating in one of the most absurd main events of the era: Rikishi & Too Cool vs. DX & Pat Patterson. The match features The Dudley Boyz getting revenge, and in a moment you have to see to believe, Rikishi shoves Patterson’s infamous “skid mark” underwear right into Triple H’s face!

We also dive into:

– Chris Benoit and Chris Jericho setting up their brutal Submission Match for Judgment Day.

– The APA getting into a wild, pre-taped bar fight with Boss Man & Bull Buchanan.

– Big Show finally turning face after being mocked one too many times by Shane McMahon.

– The formation of a new heel alliance as Kurt Angle teams up with Edge & Christian.

– The Dudley Boyz getting screwed by Shane McMahon and Gerald Brisco (who is fighting for “women’s rights”).

Join us as we break down an episode filled with great midcard wrestling, iconic comedy, and major setup for Judgment Day.
