New Wrestler-themed WWE DVD announced at Amazon

Recommended Posts

Apparently, the WWE plan to follow up the awesome classic match based Rey and Michaels DVDs with a Brock Lesnar one. May I be the first to say, what the fuck? The WWE has a dream collection of matches and footage, and when it looks like they've taken a step in the right direction with the From the Vault series w/Michaels, they pull this shit.

 

"Watch an "oldie, but goodie" as Brock Lesnar takes on the Undertaker at Unforgiven 2002"!

Could include NCAA stuff, OVW footage.....there's a lot they could do with this, although I agree it's a bit too soon to make one for The Next Big Thing.

Amazon lists WWE DVD's six months into the future, (despite most of the stuff not even in the planning stages) as they already have a page set-up for No Mercy 2003, Fully Loaded 2003 (?), Survivor Series 2003, and the imaginary History of the WWE Championship DVD.

 

Everything under that search is merely tentative, subject to change, and should be taken with a grain of salt.

They'll have his segment from confidential about his childhood and his early matches against the Hardyz with the Goldberg chants edited out.

It takes a strong willed person to sit and watch six hours of amateur wrestling.

It'd be cool if they had a segment with other wrestlers who have comments on Lesner.

 

Kidman: He stole my SSP. That's just disrespectful man! I don;t care who he is.

In several years, when Brock will have a long list of classic matches, then we'll have some DVD material.

 

As it is, they're just trying to cash in on Brock's popularity at the moment.

 

Did anyone really buy the Rey DVD for the Confidential crap?

I'd perfer a best of Kurt Angle, given the fact that the WWE never released a DVD version of his 2000 VHS comp special. But I have no complaints about them doing a Brock Lesner compilation....

 

Besides it could be worse: We could be getting a "HHH" best of. Or worse, Undertaker best of...

Brock doesn't have a lot of really good stuff for a WWE, but he is fairly popular and a DVD would propably be picked up by most of the nonsmark fans.

Whoa, too old school for me.

 

A Brock DVD? I'm sure the WWE could make it work but, I'd rather a Doink DVD. Seriously.

I'd just like to take this oppertunity to say, I hate the spines of the new WWE DVDs. I couldn't find WM XIX for a few days because of the big "2003" design on the sides. Like anyone wants to buy the Judgment Day DVD anyway. Jeez!

My big complaint is that I have WMs 16, 17, 18, and 19 on the shelf and 19 looks completely fucking different.

Brock has had Three GOOD matches (singles) that I've seen on TV. Vs. Undertaker (No Mercy), Rock (Summerslam), and Angle (WM).

 

The rest of his matches were crap.

 

 

GIVE THE DVD TO TRIPLE H! (Footage of when he ruled, and wasn't completely unmotivated)

 

Or Ric Flair (or for the dreamers, a Bret Hart One)

Guest Smell the ratings!!!

Not only does Brock not have enough good matches to fill a DVD, I'm not sure if he even has enough PPV matches to fill a DVD. Maybe they'll cut the SSP out of Wrestlemania and show OVW matches instead.

I wouldn't mind seeing a DVD of The Rock or Bret Hart's greatest matches.

Actually a HHH Best Of would be MUCH better.

 

 

And I think Taker has had more DVD-worthy matches than Brock at this point even. Of course he's barely ahead with a 15+ year head start

Why do you guys think will be a FROM THE VAULT thing ala Shawn/Mysterio?

 

I'm thinking it will be along the lines of those ROCK dvd's...

 

They have a follow Brock around and have him tell his lifestory and his rise to stardom and have 4 bonus matches on the dvd...

Even if this DVD is in the works, it won't see a release until September or October, based on the WWE's release schedule.

 

That'll leave time for Lesnar to have 2 or 3 more good matches with Benoit, Angle or Rhyno on future Smackdown shows.

I know. You guys never cease the opportunity to jump the the worst possible conclusions. Holy shit.

4 Bonus Matches? That isn't a extra. Do a DVD of a guy that has actually had about 7 memorable matches, not 2 or 3.

Im not joking. All of this Mr. McMahon vs Mr. America stuff, in addition to the Hogan crap from WM 19 stuff probably gives them enough material along with all the old stuff Like Austin vs McMahon to put out a new DVD.

4 is the number of extra matches they had on the 'Just Bring It' DVD. Those matches were:

 

-Handicap match for the Wcw title The Rock vs. Shane McMahon and Booker T at Unforgiven 2001

-Wcw title match The Rock vs. Shane McMahon at Raw is War

-WWF title match The Rock vs. Kurt Angle at No Way Out 2001

-a hardcore title match The Rock vs. Rvd

 

Not exactly a great list, huh? I can think of more than 4 bonus match possibilities for the Lesnar DVD that would far surpass Just Bring It:

 

Lesnar vs. Hogan - SmackDown

Lesnar vs. Rock - SummerSlam

Lesnar vs. Undertaker - No Mercy HIAC

Lesnar vs. Big Show - Survivor Series

Lesnar vs. Angle - WrestleMania

Lesnar vs. Big Show - last week's SD, ring collapse (I don't care if it had no finish. That spot should be on a DVD, where people who don't get SD can see it)

 

I don't think they'd put the WrestleMania match on there as the WM DVD is still relatively new. I can see them putting an OVW match as one of the bonuses.

 

Point is, marks are going to buy a DVD that has Brock Lesnar on its cover, no matter how shitty the bonus matches are. Are you actually suggesting they NOT make a Lesnar DVD and lose out on all that potential revenue?

 

But hey, smarks are getting their fix too with the From The Vault line.
