Just got done reading Jerry Lawler's book, and now I'm in the mood for some SuperClash III action! My copy stinks, so I'm looking for someone who's got it in very good to excellent condition (no jumpiness or awful tracking) - if anyone has it, and would be willing to sell a copy, let me know what you want for it and what kind of quality it's in.

The "a heel reign is only good to put a face over" thing doesn't hold much water for me . . . what about some of Flair's title reigns? Some of those were pushing a year before he lost to someone else . . . . and just because he's beaten someone once doesn't make them "ineligible" to take the strap from him on their 2nd attempt, so to speak.

Yes, HHH will be World champ for the next 1000 years, surpassing great title reigns of Sammartino, Backlund, Hogan, Thesz, Gagne, and also past stars such as Abraham, Moses, and Methuselah himself. Get a grip, people, he's gonna lose the belt eventually. And I'm sure, when he does, you'll find something else to complain about then too . . .wishing death and misery on whomever the next champ is, and moaning that you'll never watch WWE again, and FUCK VINCE! Seriously, quit watching if you don't like it. I want HHH to lose soon too, but I just don't have the bitter hatred and loathing for him that most of you seem to have, that's all.

OK, before I go off on this tirade, let's get one thing clear - I'm not a big HHH fan, and am anxious for the moment to come that he loses his beloved title. That being said . . . . . . You guys need to chill out A WHOLE DAMNED LOT. I honestly think it's a breath of fresh air that the title hasn't been changing hands at every PPV - I don't know how you guys acted (or for you young whipper-snappers - would have acted) when Hogan was champ for 4 years with a thimble full of the talent HHH has possessed over his career. Yes, HHH isn't nearly the wrestler he was two or three years ago, but c'mon - this is the SAME GUY that worked his ass off night in and night out back in '99 and '00 putting on four-plus star matches on almost every PPV - the SAME GUY that, no matter how you want to look at it, at least hasn't left to go do a bunch of damned movies and TV shows - the SAME GUY that everyone was SO anxious to see when he returned from his quad tear, then crucified him when he wasn't as good as he was before the injury. I think we all need to realize that to 95% of fans, HHH winning will NOT affect their ability to sleep tonight, unlike some of you who will probably still be living in the basement of your parents' house at 40 years old. And if you're blaming HHH on ratings decreases over the last year or so, I think you need to take a long, hard look at how the economy, increased ticket prices, the complete lack of competition, and the usual "roller-coaster" ride that wrestling always takes has played a large role in where the product is today. Yes, it's got it's problems - yes, there's too many McMahons on TV, and not enough Jericho, Benoit, and the guys we really love to see perform. But overall, I still love to watch this crazy stuff - good times and bad - and realize that overall, in the course of my lifetime, HHH still having the title doesn't affect me ONE BIT. Take some valium and calm the hell down about it. And if it upsets you THAT BADLY that HHH is still champ, then all I can recommend is to just quit watching . . . period. No more RAW, no more PPV's, nothing. If I were you, I wouldn't even come into this forum, after all - it seems that HHH is turning you guys into angry, bitter, ever-complaining souls, and your hatred of him seems to rival that of people that actually DESERVE your distaste. Wishing someone would DIE or become permanently disabled just because you didn't want him to win? That's a little harsh, don't ya think?

Hey everyone, Just wanted to get your opinion - do you think, if ever, a WrestleMania DVD Box Set will be released? Has anyone heard any possible news about it, or if/when it may be coming? I feel certain that it will happen sooner or later, but I want it NOW! What do you think something like that will cost, and is it even feasible? One more thing - needing to blur out the WWF logos from WM 15-18 - do you think that will make a huge difference, or will they even attempt to blur it on the DVD's? I know it's kind of a miniscule thing, but I would think watching WM X-7 with the WWF logo blurred out all the time would be a little annoying to say the least. Just wanted to get some thoughts. . . .

I'd think that the DVD's in a WM box set would be like the "Attitude Collection" series they put out a couple of years ago - the DVD's will have NO extras on them, each one would just have the PPV itself and that's it. I'm thinking what they might do, instead of a box set, is a 2 or 3 DVD set of the "greatest matches" and extras like interviews, promos leading up to the WM's , and so forth. That would sell as well, but I'd love to have some of the older WM's (like 3, 8, and 10) on a perfect quality DVD. There were way too many good PPV's back in the day (cheezy as some may have been) to ignore a DVD market for them in some form or fashion. But it's probably damn near impossible to make everyone happy with DVD releases.
