Guest Renegade Posted July 26, 2002 Report Posted July 26, 2002 I know a thread like this was done for opening songs for PPV's but im talking about the video clips before the main event or match. My favorites: -Austin vs Rock @ WM: My fave right now, it made "My Way" sound good. -HHH vs Cactus Jack @ RR 2000. -HHH vs Cactus Jack @ No Way Out 2000. -The double Undisputed Title matches @ Vengence.
Guest Grenouille Posted July 26, 2002 Report Posted July 26, 2002 The two that I'm thinking of right now are ... Austin-Rock-My Way-X7 Undertaker-Austin-Highway To Hell-SummerSlam 98 There's probably more I'm forgetting, nut that's all I can think of right now.
Guest The Metal Maniac Posted July 26, 2002 Report Posted July 26, 2002 I second all of Renegade's. WWF can be so excellent at making video packages sometimes. Most of them are good, but those are the GREAT ones.
Guest kingkamala Posted July 26, 2002 Report Posted July 26, 2002 Just to mention a WCW video package I'd like to say Starrcade 97 had a pretty damn cool opening video with Sting and Hogan, not the best but pretty damn cool. Wrestlemania this year had an excellent opening video package that I'm surprised isn't talked about more. I really liked the opening video for Mind Games 96 with HBK, Mankind and that scary looking laughing skull
Guest The Amazing Rando Posted July 26, 2002 Report Posted July 26, 2002 i would like to say that the little video before TLC 1 got me hyped for the match... ...so did all of the ones listed here
Guest Just call me Dan Posted July 26, 2002 Report Posted July 26, 2002 I really can't remember too many but video packaging rules! A shitty match can look like a million bucks with some over dramatized music and clips of commentary. The slo-mo and sound effects added in rule. I love how the WWE hypes any PPV match and puts time and effort into promoting it with those. Even weekly recaps of a major storyline that has been going on are nicely done. The most recent that comes to mind was the Hardy/Taker package hyping the ladder match. Got me excited.
Guest The Amazing Rando Posted July 26, 2002 Report Posted July 26, 2002 The most recent that comes to mind was the Hardy/Taker package hyping the ladder match. Got me excited. I almost forgot about that one....that was tight
Guest MillenniumMan831 Posted July 26, 2002 Report Posted July 26, 2002 The one before the InVasion ppv got me all fired up!
Guest razazteca Posted July 26, 2002 Report Posted July 26, 2002 Owen vs Brett package that showed clips from the weekend shows.
Guest The Hollywood Fashion Plate Posted July 27, 2002 Report Posted July 27, 2002 I really liked the Backlash 2001 one because of its simplicity. No sound bites from JR, no audio clips from interviews, just one announcer's voice over classical music as he read these simple lines: "He who has the power Has the gold. He who has the gold Has the power. No power, No gold. Know gold, Know power. In the end, some may have the gold... but who will have the power?" Simple but awesome, IMO.
Guest Michael Joel Benoit Posted July 29, 2002 Report Posted July 29, 2002 I LOVED Austin-Rock Wresltemania X-Seven. Check Out My Melody! But, everyone seems to forget the opening package for No Mercy 2001 with Austin/RVD/Angle and who has the belt?
Guest TheBlurricane Posted July 31, 2002 Report Posted July 31, 2002 is this thread about opening videos or videos going into the main event?
Guest godthedog Posted July 31, 2002 Report Posted July 31, 2002 this is slightly off-topic, but have you guys noticed that in the opening 'raw' video package there's footage of 2 girls making out? it's there for no reason whatsoever, and i crack up whenever i see it.
Guest AlwaysPissedOff Posted July 31, 2002 Report Posted July 31, 2002 Mine would have to be from WCW and SuperBrawl 91 with the Sting/Luger vs. Steiners classic. The music and the video clips were just done perfectly and I literally get chills everytime I watch that match.

Guest ravman77 Posted August 2, 2002 Report Posted August 2, 2002 The Montreal screwjob pre-video package. So much hatred between the two and the classic last few seconds of HBK superkicking Bret and the voice over "I'm going to ram the superkick right down your throat"......fantastic.
Guest Si82 Posted August 2, 2002 Report Posted August 2, 2002 I vote for the vid before the Six Pack Match at Unforgiven 1999. The one with "Edgecrusher" & "Timelessness" by Fear Factory and "Sugar" by System Of A Down. Man that video fuckung rules! I love it.
Guest bob_barron Posted August 2, 2002 Report Posted August 2, 2002 You can't be serious. The Unforgiven video is horrible. It doesn't explain how they got a 6 man and stuff- its just HHH kicking ass
Guest Si82 Posted August 2, 2002 Report Posted August 2, 2002 You can't be serious. The Unforgiven video is horrible. It doesn't explain how they got a 6 man and stuff- its just HHH kicking ass I am serious Mr. Barron. True it does feature a lot of Triple H kicking ass and Stone Cold Steve Austin kicking ass too but I really like it. The clips are good and the music is too. I particually like the last bit set to "Sugar" by System Of A Down. I like your sig though
Guest bob_barron Posted August 2, 2002 Report Posted August 2, 2002 I guess me being the biggest Bulldog fan ever I wanted it to be all about his quest for the title. But thanks for liking the sig
Guest Si82 Posted August 2, 2002 Report Posted August 2, 2002 I guess me being the biggest Bulldog fan ever I wanted it to be all about his quest for the title. Hey man, I understand. Being British myself I wanted Bulldog to get a fair crack at the title too. It's just a shame after his match with The Rock at No Mercy that he was jobbed out. Oh well, at least he managed to whack Stephanie with that bin at Rebellion '99 (UK PPV).
Guest y2jailbait Posted August 3, 2002 Report Posted August 3, 2002 Mine would have to be from WCW and SuperBrawl 91 with the Sting/Luger vs. Steiners classic. The music and the video clips were just done perfectly and I literally get chills everytime I watch that match. Yes!!! Did Kane & The Undertaker vs. Kronik have a video package? Hell, i sightly remember one, but im not sure. If it did, it was sure as hell better than the match. The best one ive seen was the Invasion one for the Inagrural Brawl, great great video!
Guest bob_barron Posted August 3, 2002 Report Posted August 3, 2002 The opening package to X-8 with all the stars saying what WM means to them. Fantastic.
