Chris Benoit DVD

Glowingmind

Being released in the states in july, so hopefully over here in time for christmas, should be pretty damn good

Provided they don't mess it up! If they don't go lax on the WCW stuff, it will be an amazing DVD.

However given how they've used their WCW material in the past, i have my doubts

check out play.com for those type of dvds. they are usually very competitive price wise, quick, and free delivery

"WWE will be releasing a Chirs Benoit DVD on 7/19 documenting his career through the indies, Japan, WCW and his long road to becoming WWE champion." - from rajah

Hanza

Yes...

As long as WWE give the relivent amount of kudos, recognition and money to the various indies.

The wwe own a massive video library, not just the wwe,ecw and wcw stuff, and anything else they'd want to use from japan etc. they can just buy/liscence is a similar way to how music is bought for compilations.

The WMXX DVD:
The DVD for WrestleMania XX will be a three disc set. The set will feature the PPV itself, the Heat broadcast, Hall of Fame footage, bonus interviews, the 'Greatest Matches in WrestleMania History' TV special, and 'The Mania of WrestleMania' special.


Also silvervision have done a wm3 and wm4 double disc set, and a double royal rumble set too

Wasnt that Mania of Wrestlemania filmed at WM19 last year? I heard its gonna be a really big documentary about the back stage feel of Wrestlemania. SOunds good. Even though the PPV was nothing special, Im still gonna get the DVD.

Will be expensive, but I dont really care.

Same here, (yeah Xero, you read right, eventhough the PPV was complete toss!), even if it is just to complete the collection, the extras will topple the actual event!

Yep, it was filmed backstage at WM19, and I believe it's a documentary in the style of Beyond The Mat rather than Confidential. It actually aired in the States last week.

And as usual we dont get to see any of the good WWE stuff over here. :mad:

Speaking of DVD's, the Monday Night Wars came out in the states and Canada, Scott Keith reviewed it earlier this week. He wasn't impressed as the DVD fell into the same lines of the rest in the sense that it skipped a load of chunks and vital stuff that could have made the DVD.

I'm still interested in seeing it all the same.

i was looking it up. the actual dvd is only 90 minutes long ffs. theres another 90 mins of wrestling which is 2 matches from raw 2 from nitro (cant remember which)

i betcha that this is largely made up of the nwo dvd, and 1 or 2 new interviews. why couldnt they make this a 20 hour 5 disc monster. could have been amazing

NeroTheExtreme

And yet again, WWE drop the ball.

Well, it's the first ever Benoit DVD, so maybe they're testing the waters a little seeing if there's actually a demand for Benoit DVDs. It would make sense to test it now after his big title win when he's at his most popular, instead of throwing a whole load of footage on it in what could amount to a waste if it doesn't do well.

i was talking about the monday night wars dvd. 90 mins of dvd. 90 mins of wrestling footage

says "86 minutes of the matches and events that changed the face of sports-entertainment." but lists the Duration as 3 hours (approx). shockingly short imo

I downloaded Monday Night Wars - was good for me cause i missed all those years of wrestling. I'm sure for people who were watching wrestling at the time it would be nothing new. The best parts were when Flair was saying how he hates Bishoff. There's one bit when the 4 horsemen re-unite and Flair comes out to a huge pop. Then Bishoff shows up and Flair lays into him, calling him a no good son of a bitch - classic stuff, really raw emotion - Flair had just come back after being sued.
