SamoaRowe 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2004 I bought No Way Out on Sunday before heading over to my friend's for Wrestlemania. So far I haven't gotten too far into it since I've been busy, but I really liked the Heat match (I saw all those guys in Manchester, NH on monday night as well, which added to the novelty). Hell, I think the only guy on the No Way Out card who I didn't see monday night was Brock Lesnar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest I Got Banned for Sucking Report post Posted March 18, 2004 'Crossing Borders' isn't that bad of a song. Down here, when I purchased (or received) the Region 4 copy of Unforgiven 2003, we got highlights from the Melbourne and Sydney Ruthless Aggression show/s, respectively, Shawn Michaels and Rob Van Dam climbing the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Trish Stratus and Stacy Keibler at the Melbourne Zoo and in the city, Ric Flair playing a bit of AFL, just to name some in the 'A Little Extra Down Under' section, among other extras. Obviously, they didn't think that those shows deserved their own DVD, ala Global Warning. On No Mercy 2003, we get exclusive interviews, and on Survivor Series 2003, we get Survivor Series Moments, and events leading to the matches, just to name a couple. They are released approximately two months after they air - I still have to get Armageddon, and the Royal Rumble shouldn't be too far away, if it's not out yet. Just some notes on some recent WWE DVDs down under. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest I Got Banned for Sucking Report post Posted March 18, 2004 Well, if it was in the Top 40 it would, but considering that it's done by a non-singer, it isn't so bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Anglesault Report post Posted March 18, 2004 I look at it from a different POV. Obviously there was a reason that Rey became a wrestler as opposed to a singer. That song helps make that point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I say that by normal standards for music, he did areally bad job, which is why he doesn't sing professionally. It's all about what kind of standad you place upon it.

Guest I Got Banned for Sucking Report post Posted March 18, 2004 It's all about what kind of standad you place upon it. Yeah, I'll agree with you there. But I think that we're just going to have to agree to disagree. I'll admit the Crossing Borders is no Nineth Symphony, obviously, but it is still an enjoyable tune.

Jericholic82 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2004 The music dubbing really gets on my nerves. The 2 wwe ppv dvds I have are summerslam and unforgiven of 2002. The only music they dub is flairs (his old wwf theme) and edges (you think you know me theme). But on the flair collection dvd the theme is on there. They seem to be selective about that. anyways bookers, and rvds themes are fine on those 2 but I guess it gets selective. and I am shocked that sseries 03 dubbed out limp bizkit as they din't do that with previous dvds did they (like wm x7 and 19). anyways unforgiven 02 kept the adrenaline song from the xxx movie soundtrack so thats cool.

Guest I Got Banned for Sucking Report post Posted March 19, 2004 You have your heavily-publicised WWE DVDs, and you have your small-time WWE DVDs. Wrestler's auto/biography DVDs seem to be one of the latter category. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jobber of the Week 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2004 Gee, I can't think of any WWE DVDs I have that have been edited. Oh, wait. Just one. Scott Hall's entrance for WM18 is edited to have a "static" effect leading out of the black & white (the original show simply went to color without a transition.) Compared to the usual NWO static effect, this one looks really tacked-on and low budget. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest The Shadow Behind You Report post Posted November 17, 2004 seriously, why don't they just slap on *bonus* matches on these dvd's? You got all this AWA, ECW, NWA, WCW, WWF shit in your vault. Slap 2-3 matches on them and they could sell better... like the Bad Blood DVD should have had 12.29.03 on it. (it's not on any dvd and it ties into the Main event) The HIAC was there, throw in another HHHIAC match like the Jericho one or better yet, the Foley one to add to the whole "HHH owns HIAC" sell. It won't hurt them to use a couple bonus matches on the dvd's, hell they do it for the Web-Casts and they offer usually some good matches, slap those on the dvd's as well. I know those offers are supposed to intice more people to order via webcast, but the dvd's come out 2 months later, might as well slap them on the dvd as well.

Guest Askewniverse Report post Posted December 18, 2004 Do you buy every WWE DVD released? seriously, why don't they just slap on *bonus* matches on these dvd's? You got all this AWA, ECW, NWA, WCW, WWF shit in your vault. Slap 2-3 matches on them and they could sell better... I agree. Most of this year's PPVs sucked, so there's no real incentive to buy the DVD. A few decent bonus matches might make an otherwise shitty PPV DVD worth buying.

This is annoying. On, I think, the John Cena DVD, it has 'Eddie Guerrero vs John Cena' listed, as well as something to the extent of 'Eddy Guerrero and John Cena doing......'. How the HELL do you give the man's name two different spellings on the very SAME DVD?!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Just call me Dan 0 Report post Posted December 18, 2004 You skipped GAB, right? But of course. I'm not getting Taboo either. Fuck these extra PPVs. I buy them all. My DVD collection is pushing 100+. I feel that way at times, but there always seems to be one thing about a PPV that makes me want to buy it. As much as GAB sucked, the WWE title changed hands in a ***+ match , so therefore, I bought it. Taboo Tuesday featured Benjamin's 1st singles title win ever, the culmination of what seemed to be a push for an unknown (Gene Snitsky), 2 good main events. Gotta pick it up. Plus after marking out like a little bitch when HHH applied the Figure Four on the CORRECT KNEE, which I haven't seen done in years, I was satisfied in my pickups.

DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2004 I skipped Judgment Day and GAB... I'm going back and forth on Unforgiven because though I recall liking the show when I watched it, the huge amount of negative feedback has mentally made me think I hated it. No Mercy I probably will get as I there were four matches I enjoyed-to-really enjoyed on that show (tag title, CW title, London vs Kidman, Rico/Haas vs Dudleyz). The main event was really awful but that's what power buttons on DVD players are for. Taboo Tuesday is one of those things where I didn't have a chance to see it on PPV but the results sounded good enough to check out on DVD (although there was a lot of negativity there for that one... I'm just interested in HBK/HHH, the IC title match, and Flair/Orton, which seemed to be reviewed positively). Survivor Series will be a pick-up, Armageddon will be a pass. I only picked up the 2003 edition to get my fancy 2003 box - the crappy PPVs from this year have no such incentive so hopefully I find a stand alone version of the tag title match on Kazaa someday.
