buffybeast Posted January 24, 2004 Report Posted January 24, 2004 Cena getting a DVD before Benoit or Jericho is just absolute bullshit. Not really. John Cena's DVD would probably be more commercially successful than Benoit's or Jericho's. I hate to say that, trust me. But I think the release of a Cena DVD makes sound business sense.
Guest Deebo Posted January 24, 2004 Report Posted January 24, 2004 I don't think it would be a better seller. A Benoit DVD for example, would get purchased by the regular WWE fan, "smart marks", and by a lot of people who don't watch the WWE any longer but are still Benoit fans. A Cena DVD would get purchased by the normal WWE fan, and probably very little else. Especially after the awesome Ric Flair and Shawn Michaels DVD's that have come out, it's impossible to do something like that with Cena. They would be best served to wait, at least until he gets his first Title Reign.
Lord of The Curry Posted January 24, 2004 Report Posted January 24, 2004 I tend to wonder if the same people in this saying that a Cena DVD would sell more then a Bret, Jericho or Benoit DVD are the same rubes who were saying that the Trish DVD was a smarter dvd business-wise then the others. Cena can get a wrestling dvd when he learns to wrestle. Don't get me wrong, I dug his match w/ Benoit and Taker and his work against Rhyno last week was fine up until he hit the FU but come on, trying to justify this dvd makes people come off dumber then they already are.
El Psycho Diablo Posted January 24, 2004 Report Posted January 24, 2004 Benoit will never get the massive Flair/Hogan style DVD you people are hoping for. He's just not high priority for them, obviously.
Guest Retro Rob Posted January 24, 2004 Report Posted January 24, 2004 The only matches that could be considered for the DVD if it is indeed wrestling-based are... vs. Kurt Angle (WWE Debut - June 2002) vs. Brock Lesnar (Backlash 03) vs. Undertaker (Vengeance 03) vs. Kurt Angle (No Mercy 03) Plus he had a few other decent-good ones with Angle, Jericho and Benoit. The main problem is that he won very few of those matches, so why put them on *his* DVD?
Masked Man of Mystery Posted January 24, 2004 Report Posted January 24, 2004 It's way too early for a real Cena DVD. I'd rather they do something else, like maybe a best of Ultimo DVD since they apparently feel that Ultimo's wrestling days are behind him just like Ric nFlair. Whoops, sorry about that, this the WWE where they make the Twilight Zone seem logical
Guest Anglesault Posted January 24, 2004 Report Posted January 24, 2004 vs. Brock Lesnar (Backlash 03) HUH? Brutal, BRUTAL match. Completed the Trifecta of Suck that was the Brock/Cena series where they never really got any higher thn **. And Personally, I hate vs. Kurt Angle (WWE Debut - June 2002) Just when Kurt finally looks good by making Hogan tap, they have some nobody go toe to toe with him and Kurt wins with a BACKSLIDE??

I can only think of a handfull of matches where someone lost to a backslide. So that proves Cena sucked.

Actually, Cena lost to a three quarter nelson or some other amateur style roll up. Didn't you spend like 4 pages of a thread bitching about a match ending on a roll up after that?

Rather than, you know, soundly defeat the guy he had to squeak by.

I spent three pages bitching about backslide because that's what it was, damnit. People tried to give it some fancy name and went as far as to say it made Angle look good, but in the end it was more or less a backslide.
AndrewTS Posted January 24, 2004 Report Posted January 24, 2004 It was sold as a desperation move by Angle. Rather than, you know, soundly defeat the guy he had to squeak by. Well, that wasn't as bad as when Kendrick almost beat Angle.

Guest Stunt Granny Posted January 24, 2004 Report Posted January 24, 2004 You really can't put out a Jericho or Benoit DVD becuase they NEVER WIN EVER! It would be like watching an Iron Mike Sharpe DVD.
Dangerous A Posted January 24, 2004 Report Posted January 24, 2004 Fuck a Cena rap or wrestling DVD. The motherfucker has had one good match in the company. (vs Angle,***'s IMO, and that's generous) While his pre match rhymes are nifty at times, I wouldn't pay any money for a fucking DVD about John Cena making a fucking rap song. He is ok for a pre match spiel, but he is not God's gift to hip hop and he is not as charismatic as people make him out to be. My prediction: The Cena DVD will suck balls, whether it be about his wrestling or his rapping.
humongous2002 Posted January 24, 2004 Report Posted January 24, 2004 You really can't put out a Jericho or Benoit DVD becuase they NEVER WIN EVER! It would be like watching an Iron Mike Sharpe DVD. Hey you could put RVD on that list too, imagine the title:"RVD 4:20 SAYS I JUST DID THE JOB".And about the Cena DVD, screw him i'm here waiting for the Orton DVD.
Elbarto997 Posted January 26, 2004 Report Posted January 26, 2004 They already did put out a Jericho video. Plus, I think that an RVD, or another Dudleyz DVD is in order...
