Chunk 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2002 As you will know, silvervision are selling off all of their wwF tapes and DVD's at half price, due to the wildlife fund ruling. I have bought a good few, and my collection of wwf tapes now includes: PPV’s and Complete Shows: No Mercy 2002 Unforgiven 2002 Summer Slam 2002 Wrestlemania XVIII (18) Royal Rumble 2002 Vengeance 2001 Survivor Series 2001 Rebellion 2001 No Mercy 2001 Unforgiven 2001 Summer Slam 2001 Invasion 2001 King of the Ring 2001 Judgement day 2001 Insurrextion 2001 Wrestlemania XVII (17) DVD No Way Out 2001 Royal Rumble 2001 Armageddon 2000 Rebellion 2000 No Mercy 2000 Unforgiven 2000 Fully Loaded 2000 Insurrextion 2000 Backlash 2000 Wrestlemaina 2000 No Way Out 2000 Royal Rumble 2000 No Mercy 1999 Unforgiven 1998 Wrestlemania XIII (13) Canadian Stampede Survivor Series 1996 Wrestlemania XII (12) Wrestlemania X (10) Wrestlemania IX (9) Summer Slam 1992 Survivor Series 1992 Royal Rumble 1992 Survivor Series 1991 Wrestlemania V (5) Wrestlemania III (3) Wrestlemania 1 (1) WWE Biographies and Documentaries: WWF: Wrestlemania: “The Greatest Hits” WWF: “Hardcore” WWF: “Wrestling Super Heroes” WWF: “Eve of destruction” WWF: “Wild in the UK” WWF: “Viewers choice – best of 2001” Chris Jericho: “Break down the walls” TLC: “Tables, Ladders and Chairs” Steve Austin: “Lord of the Ring” Hulk Hogan’s Rock ’n’ Wrestling Volume 1 (Cartoon) Wrestling Superstars: Before they were famous Anyway, the reason for this post is that I still have some money left to spend and im really not sure what to get. I have bought every thing that I have a preference for, and so would like anyones input into any classic shows that are missing from my collection that I should definetly get before they are no longer available. I am also interested in compilations, focuses on wrestlers and best of's etc. I have posted this message in this folder, as the viewers in this folder will know more about WWF, and this question could just as wll be "What are the best shows ever?" rather than "Which tapes should I get?" Thanks in advance for the help, ChUnK! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ISportsFan Report post Posted October 27, 2002 SummerSlam 2000, Judgment Day 2000, SummerSlam 1991, WrestleMania 8 (VIII) at least. Jason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BAR Report post Posted October 27, 2002 Well, my favourite WWF show is IYH16, but you've got that. You need SummerSlam 1994, for the cage match. How about Shawn Michaels 'Hits From The Heartbreak Kid' I think it's been deleted already but it's got the classic Kliq tag match from 30/10/94. I'm not sure if this one's gone already but Monday Night Raw - Prime Cuts has my favourite Raw match of all time Perfect vs. Flair. Erm, WrestleMania VIII is probably my favourite WrestleMania, get that. It's got the classic Bret/Piper match and another classic, Savage/Flair. My favourite WWF matches (not my all time favourites) of all time are... 1. Owen Hart vs. Bret Hart - WrestleMania X 2. Bret Hart vs. Steve Austin - Survivor Series 1996 3. Randy Savage vs. Ricky Steamboat - WrestleMania III 4. Razor Ramon vs. Shawn Michaels - WrestleMania X 5. Bret Hart vs. Owen Hart - SummerSlam 1994 Those aren't my top 5 favourite matches, just my favourite WWF/E matches, hope they help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest wwefan4ever_brethartrulz_18 Report post Posted October 27, 2002 I'd get King of the Ring '93 or '96, both have historical value. SummerSlam 2000 is one of my favourite shows ever, with the awsome TLC match, a great main event and a 2 out of 3 between Jericho and Benoit. I also loved 1998 PPV's, so you might consider WrestleMania 14, King of the Ring '98 or Summerslam '98, three great shows. I don't have much to spend so I got Fab 4 from Amazon.

Guest kingkamala Report post Posted October 27, 2002 A No Mercy took place in England in May of 1999n but it was a UK only PPV. The card was... Tiger Ali Singh pinned Gillberg (1:05).(Ugh) Farooq, Bradshaw, & Viscera beat Gangrel, Edge, & Christian (13:49) when Bradshaw pinned Gangrel. (Surprisingly good about **1/2-**3/4) Steve Blackman beat Droz (7:53) via submission.(don't remember this match) Kane beat Mideon (4:36) via DQ.(YEARGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH) Nicole Bass pinned Tori (0:27).(Squasharoonie) WWF European Champ Shane McMahon pinned X-Pac (8:21).(Better then there Wrestlemania XV match in my opinion about ***-***1/4) Billy Gunn pinned Mankind (11:27).( Wicked boring brawl) WWF World Champ Steve Austin beat The Undertaker and Hunter Hearst Helmsley (15:07) in an "anything goes triangle" match when he pinned Helmsley.(Boring boring BORING match) Overall unless your a Russo era mark I wouldn't get the tape but whatever floats your boat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest jm29195 Report post Posted October 27, 2002 D'OH I've already brought it but at least I finally get to see a GILLBERG match!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest kingkamala Report post Posted October 27, 2002 Well the Ministry Vs The Brood is decent and so is Shane McMahon Vs X-Pac but other then that you wasted your hard earned money Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest jm29195 Report post Posted October 27, 2002 Ah well it was only 4 pounds, but how the hell did Mideon get to have a mtach with Kane and Billy Gunn with Mankind- Weren't Foley and Kane considered legit main eventers back then and Mideon and Gunn definitely aren't/weren't????

Chunk 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2002 What about Dinamit Kid Singles matches? Which show scould i get with classic matches from him on them. thanks for all the help by the way, much appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest jm29195 Report post Posted October 27, 2002 There's a very early Colliseum video called 'The British Bulldogs' which (not suprisingly has some devent dynamite kid stuff on it. Some matches I remeber include their match from Wrestlemania 2 and also Bret Hart vs Dynamite Kid. I don't think this is available on the website anymore but I was lucky and picked it up through second hand for 1.50. I don't really think wwf ever really showcased any really good Dynamite Kid stuff so you'll have to look at some old Japan compilations for that - try to find anything with him vs Tiger Mask, they are supposed to be v good!

Guest BAR Report post Posted October 27, 2002 What about Dinamit Kid Singles matches? Which show scould i get with classic matches from him on them. thanks for all the help by the way, much appreciated. Dynamite didn't have any 'classic' singles matches in the WWF, but if they still sell the British Bulldogs comp, that's worth getting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BAR Report post Posted October 27, 2002 ...If you're looking for the best of DK, go to http://www.strongstyletapes.com and get '100% Pure Dynamite'. It's two tapes with a front cover and professionally made and is only something like £12. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Old Me Report post Posted October 27, 2002 I'd go with WM 8. Flair vs Savage plus the return of the Ultimate Nimrod and Hart vs Piper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest DJ Jeff Report post Posted October 27, 2002 I'd recommend to get Wrestlemania 14, Wrestlemania 15, and SummerSlam 2000. Those are 3 of my all-time favorite PPVs, since I started watching back in 1998. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chunk 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2002 Thanks guys, Im still open to more suggestions if anyone has them, but that should be enough to Max out my credit card for now. Cheers, ChUnK! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Billy Gunn was one month away from winning KOTR and fresh off a heel turn so maybe that's why he fought Foley but why Mideon fought Kane....how the hell should I know?

Chunk 0 Report post Posted November 5, 2002 Thanks for all the help. I still have a few questions that someone may be able to help me with. Ive decided to get the Foley Hardknocks and cheap pops DVD, But im not sure weather to get the Best of Raw DVD. It is volumes 1 and 2 combined for £12.50 and has over 7 hours of footage. Im not sure if it is worth not spending the money on a ppv tape for, and getting this instead (if you see what i mean). Is this DVD any good, and how many volumes of "the best of raw" are there? Also, does anyone know if the "three faces of Foley DVD" is any good, bearing in mind im going to get the hard knocks and cheap pops one? I still have a little bit of money left, so im still open to other suggestions of good shows missing from my collection. Many thanks, ChUnK! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
