Guest TajiriMark Report post Posted September 21, 2002 Hello everyone. I don't have many of my 2001 video's labeled (I tape all RAWs/SDowns/Heats) and I don't have the equipment needed to dub videos currently, but when I do have these things ready, I would really like to create a "Best of 2001" compilation video and am curious to know all your thoughts of which matches should be included (including PPVs): from the much talked-about classics like Chris Jericho/Chris Benoit vs. Triple H/Steve Austin for the Tag Titles and Benoit vs. Austin from SmackDown in May to the Benoit vs. Eddy Guerrero match from RAW and the Rock vs. RVD matches from RAW that were great, but aren't talked about all that much. Pretty much any match that was great to beyond awesome (and even just enjoyable) from RAW, Smackdown, PPV, and Heat in 2001, please list it here. Bascially I'm just curious to what your opinions are. Thanks to all who reply. P.S. I know there have been many "Best of 2001" threads and I hope you don't mind one more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest godthedog Report post Posted September 21, 2002 austin v. angle, january raw austin v. angle, october raw (austin regains title) austin v. angle, summerslam edge v. storm, summerslam tlc 2 and 3 benoit v. angle, wrestlemania benoit v. angle, raw cage match rock v. austin rock v. angle, no way out benoit v. jericho ladder match, royal rumble royal rumble match angle v. shane, king of the ring rock v. jericho, no mercy rock v. jericho, vengeance austin v. angle v. rvd, no mercy rvd v. jeff hardy, invasion (important--the hardcore match, NOT the ladder match) benoit v. austin, raw and smackdown matches i would buy this comp in a second. i also highly recommend that you include the best promos and skits from 2001, cause all the austin/angle stuff and all the austin heel stuff i'd pay for as well. there was also eddie and the hardy boys (which i personally enjoyed a lot), and the spike/molly saga (which was my favorite storyline of last year).

Guest TajiriMark Report post Posted September 21, 2002 Hey godthedog. Thanks for replying. It would take me a while to get my videos dated with match/segment listings (maybe by Christmastime it could be done), but my friend has equipment needed to dub, so I would probably be able to ask him to help me make the compilation. I was planning to include the segments/promos from 2001 as well, but wasn't sure if people would want to list all the ones they liked. Feel free to do so though. Also, what month were the Hardy Boys and Eddie Guerrero segments? I remember the Austin/Angle, Austin heel skits, and the Spike/Molly segments, but can't seem to recall the Hardys/Eddie segments. I just thought of also including the Mick Foley promo from RAW the Monday before Survivor Series 2001 and the Paul Heyman promo about Vince the following Smackdown.

Guest godthedog Report post Posted September 22, 2002 i'm pretty sure eddie/hardys was april-may. i'd check the SK raw archives just to be sure. oh, also, i forgot that eddie had a very good match with xpac on...i think it was smackdown, but i'm not positive. but it was during the eddie/hardys thing. how long is this thing shaping up to be?

Chunk 0 Report post Posted September 22, 2002 i duno if you know, but the wwe actually released a show called "the viewer choice - best of 2001" i have the tape in Pal format, if you want to trade for a copy, as well as making your one. ChUnK! p.s. would the tape you make be pal or ntsc (iif you dont know, then where are you from?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TajiriMark Report post Posted September 22, 2002 godthedog: I remember the Eddie Guerrero vs. X-Pac match (almost positive it was on SmackDown) and I know I have it on tape. I'm not sure how long the video is going to be, but maybe even two 6-hour tapes. I still have to get all my tapes labeled for the entire year of 2001 and go through them before I create the compilation, which is going to take a while. chUnk: I never actually heard of a released "Viewer's Choice: Best of 2001" video. I'm pretty clueless on what exactly PAL and ntsc mean...I live in New Jersey though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chunk 0 Report post Posted September 22, 2002 chUnk: I never actually heard of a released "Viewer's Choice: Best of 2001" video. I'm pretty clueless on what exactly PAL and ntsc mean...I live in New Jersey though. in america, you have ntsc format videos, and in the uk we have PAL. Simple as that :-) Over here in the UK, we had a show on tv put on by the wwe/f called "The viewers choice - best of 2001" I have that show on PAL tape. If you want, i can get a match listing for yuo, of exaclty what is on the tape. I would be only to happy to trade the tape with you, but the thing is, i only have the tape in PAL format. If you know anyone that has a pal to ntsc converter (or if you have any other ideas) i would be glad to trade with you. cheers ChUnK! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TajiriMark Report post Posted September 23, 2002 Hey ChUnk. Thanks alot for explaining the difference between the PAL and ntsc videos. I've been wondering about PAL tapes for a long time now, but never asked about it, lol. I don't know anyone with a pal to ntsc converter, so I wouldn't be able to trade, sorry about that. If you could post a match-listing for the "Viewer's Choice: Best of 2001" video, I would really appriciate it though. Thanks in advance! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest TajiriMark Report post Posted September 25, 2002 Anyone wanting a Best of 2001 compilation could certainly get it from BretHart4Ever way before I would be able to make one, which probably wouldn't be until around late December. I mainly just wanted to post and ask what you all think I should put on it...wasn't even thinking of making any to sell truthfully, although I would be glad to if you wanted one.

Guest AlwaysPissedOff Report post Posted September 26, 2002 I'm shocked the IC Title match from No Way Out was left off since it was pretty much the second best match of the night. Also Jericho/RVD from Unforgiven. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TajiriMark Report post Posted September 26, 2002 Hey ChUnk. Thanks alot for posting it...I really appriciate it! As soon as I started to read it, I realized that they also showed this show on TNN in the US on the New Year's Eve RAW, and I also have it on tape. I'm very sorry to make you go through it and type it up when I already had it, but I actually totally forgot about some of those moments that they had on the show that I want to put on the Best of 2001 tape (the Edge promo on X-Pac and the Kurt Angle milk-bath segment). Sorry again about asking you to type it up when I already have it, but I hope you didn't mind. Thanks again! ~Pac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
