Guest Choken One Posted December 1, 2003 Report Posted December 1, 2003 I don't know. The IWA show that runs cuts in old USWA footage with Austin all the time...and someone other than WWE has released 2 Austin DVDs worth of stuff prior to his WCW time...so I'll guess WWE doesn't have it. I was refering to Savage's run with Memphis...
DMann2003 Posted December 1, 2003 Report Posted December 1, 2003 ^^^^^BLASPHEMER!!!!! Edit- I'm referring to BPS's post btw
Guest Choken One Posted December 1, 2003 Report Posted December 1, 2003 I can't see that... They were in essance the same character at all points... the mega babyface (Austin in 98, Savage in 1992)...The Rebel Bad ass (Austin 1997 and Savage in Late 90s) the wife beater (Savage in 99...Austin in real life)...The Paranoid champ(Savage in 88/89 and Austin Summer of 01)...
Guest M. Harry Smilac Posted December 1, 2003 Report Posted December 1, 2003 One thing I noticed about this dvd is that all the matches are Flair victorys with only a few exceptions. The matches he did lose like the Dusty match and the first Steamboat match ended up being overturned because of some controversy. The only untainted loss is the HHH match and that's only on there for the post match skit. This maybe explains the lack of more and better sting matches as he did the job in most of them?
Guest M. Harry Smilac Posted December 1, 2003 Report Posted December 1, 2003 Cool,that's why I put the question mark. Can only hope it will be on the next one.
Guest Choken One Posted December 1, 2003 Report Posted December 1, 2003 avtually he didn't win either...It was a Draw as well. Flair/Sting I believe only had like 3 BIG TIME matches (Clash, Title Unification and Final Nitro)...They were supposed to have a big run in 1990 i think and sting got hurt so they ever REALLY had that huge match that was supposed to happen.
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted December 1, 2003 Report Posted December 1, 2003 Choken they had a big match at GAB90 where Sting won his first belt. And fuck Austin, I wnat a Savage DVD! IF tehy put one of the Savage/Steamboat cage matches on there I'd buy 50 copies.
razazteca Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 I want a Best of DDP DVD 3 disc set.
Guest Dynamite Kido Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 I want a Best of DDP DVD 3 disc set. Now honestly, do you think they could pull 3 discs out of that? I didn't think so..........
Guest Choken One Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 Disc One The Badd Years (his greatests hits with his greatest rival...Johnny B. Badd) Disc Two How I carried Goldberg to a **** match Disc Three How I carried Goldberg to a **** pt. 2
Downhome Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 Come on, it'd be easy as hell to have a three disc DVD set. I could make one for just about anyone if I really wanted to.
Guest Goodear Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 I want a Best of DDP DVD 3 disc set. Now honestly, do you think they could pull 3 discs out of that? I didn't think so.......... Seriously? Disk 1: DDP manages Badd Company, Freebirds, sucks as a wrestler Disk 2: DDP versus nWo/Raven/Benoit Disk 3: Jersey Triad/WWE 'It's Me' promos
Guest Coffey Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 Not to mention it could show his upbringing, being a bouncer and a night club owner, meeting Kimberly, etc. You know, all the non-wrestling shit that was talked about in his book. Then you have his managing, wrestling, WCW, WWE, retirement, etc. Easily three discs.
notJames Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 DDP's career does not warrant a 3-disc DVD set. No one outside of the dwindling die-hard wCw faithful even know or care who DDP is. To even think that DDP's career can parallel the greatness of Flair is laughable and best, and seriously deluded at worst. Sorry for the harshness, but it needed to be said.
OldSchoolWrestling Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 I agree DDP doesn't deserve his own dvd. But I don't think any of them said his career paralleled Ric Flairs. At least I hope they didn't say that. He got his own WCW Superstar Series tape, so something like that would have been ok, but a few others deserve the Flair treatment before DDP such as Bret, LOD, Piper, Savage, Steamboat.
Guest M. Harry Smilac Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 DDP may not deserve it but some of us can dream. Just curious,What actual matches would people put on a DDP 3 dvd set? Three off the top of my head DDP Vs. Curt Henning-Starcade 97' US Title Win DDP Vs. Sting-Nitro 9/27/99 DDP Vs. Chris Benoit Vs. Raven-Uncensored 99'(?) Didn't they also job The Big Show off to him before he left for the WWE which resulted in at least one top rope diamond cutter?My memory is fuzzy but I wouldnt mind that one too for nostalgia.
notJames Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 I agree DDP doesn't deserve his own dvd. But I don't think any of them said his career paralleled Ric Flairs. What I meant was that only a career like Flair's would warrant a 3-disc DVD set, which DDP's doesn't. Sorry if that was taken the wrong way.
Guest Coffey Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 Just because we want a DDP DVD doesn't mean we think he had as big an impact on the sport as Ric Flair. What the fuck. I just want to see the "history of the Diamond Cutter" and some of his stories and good matches on DVD. Shoot me. EDIT: Ok, he cleared that first part up. Still the number of discs shouldn't mean anything. How many discs would Dynamite Kid or Bret Hart get?
notJames Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 If you're talking about a DVD set marketed by Vince and Co.: 1. You'd maybe get two discs for a British Bulldogs retrospective. One would highlight some of their individual accolades, while the other would center around ther tag work. As much as Billington was a god in the ring, not many casual WW_ fans are aware of his singles work as much as that of Davey Boy, especially in light of the latter's recent death. 2. Bret could easily get three discs. His greatest matches alone could fill six hours of DVD time, not to mention a whole block dedicated to the SurSer97 debacle. You have to remember that you're filling each disc with close to three hours of material. Some wrestlers, though beloved by some, don't have as much in their resume to fill one disc, let alone three.
Guest Dave O'Neill, Journalist Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 God Bless Amazon I finally got my Flair DVD (and Bloodbath), because they aint released here till January, so I had to buy them through Amazon.com. as opposed to .co.uk, and they arrived this morning A WEEK EARLY. So, dont expect much posts for the next 24 hours
Jack_Bauer Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 Man, I hate buying from the net, so I doubt I'm gonna see much of this stuff.
DerangedHermit Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 Who could have a 3 disc set (retired or not wrestling in TNA or WWE)? - Foley - Bret Hart - Owen Hart or Bulldogs? - Randy Savage - Legion of Doom - Ricky Steamboat As for current wrestlers: - Chris Benoit - Undertaker - Eddie Guerrero - Booker T
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 Book? I'm not he deserves nor can fill out 3 discs. What'll be on it? Few tag matches, few Benoit matches and....Jarrett? Austin? Steiner? HHH? IMO the guys worthy(and with enough material to actually sell) 3 discs are: Bret Savage Piper Foley Steamboat Current: Taker Benoit Austin Rock POSSIBLY Eddie, Jericho or someone else.
Downhome Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 I still want WWE to release a big DVD set of WrestleCrap/gimmicks.
ChrisMWaters Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 I still want WWE to release a big DVD set of WrestleCrap/gimmicks. So...the 1993 Royal Rumble would be on it then? Let's see, you had Max Moon, El Matador, The Model, Papa Shango, High Energy, Giant Gonzales, Damien Demento, Irwin R. Schyster, Repo Man...

There is no telling what you could put on it, go back to the 80's as well. I'm not talking about shit that made fans sick, like some of the stuff from the past few years either. I'm talking about the GOOD crap, if that makes any sense.
Guest Goodear Posted December 2, 2003 Report Posted December 2, 2003 Right ... HonkyTonk Man = YES Bischoff not seeing Warrior in the mirror = No
