Guest Askewniverse Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 I do think it's funny that Benoit's greatest rival (at least on American soil) isn't on the dvd (Jericho). I really think they should have shown a Benoit/Jericho match in place of the Angle/Benoit Rumble Match... I know they had a supposedly ***** match in Japan...not sure if they have access to it but they had many **** matches in WCW and WWE... Super J Cup 1995 is their only Japan match I know of and it is barely ****. Nobody calls it *****. I agree. Personally, I think the J-Cup '95 match isn't even the best Benoit vs. Jericho match. Plus, the finish to the J-Cup Benoit-Jericho match seemed a little messed up. The move ended up looking more like a powerslam than a tombstone.
Scroby Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 No one answered my question..is this coming to the U.S. or is this another U.K. only release? I think Kido sorta answered it, I know there's a Beniot one coming out on July 27th but is it one in the same?
Guest Askewniverse Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 Yeah, the U.S. is getting the same DVD. Here's a link to the listing at Highspots.
Scroby Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 OMG YES, YES YES YES YES INSTANT (BEEP)ON, YES!
NoCalMike Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 I have November to Remember '95, and there is no Benoit vs. Sabu match on the card. Maybe they got the show mixed up. Also I have Double Tables, and yes the Benoit/Al Snow match was epic. It will be nice to see the WWE production crew tighten the production quality of the match, since it was during the old days of ECW before they got decent looking quality for their home videos. It is a shame they left out Chris Benoit's Triple Threat days in ECW, but I am guessing they didn't want to have ANYTHING to do with Shane Douglas who was the leader of the group. Oh Well.
Scroby Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 I'm pretty sure if they did have Shane Douglas in it, Shane would want money for having his image shown for selling WWE product. Actually I take that back WWE would have to ask Douglas to let them use his image for anything since Shane owns his name, his gimmick, etc..etc...etc...
Guest Choken One Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 But WWE can still show the Dynamic Dude stuff right?
Guest wildpegasus Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 I have November to Remember '95, and there is no Benoit vs. Sabu match on the card. Maybe they got the show mixed up. It's just a mistake. It's November to Remember '94.
MARTYEWR Posted June 2, 2004 Author Report Posted June 2, 2004 I have November to Remember '95, and there is no Benoit vs. Sabu match on the card. Maybe they got the show mixed up. It's just a mistake. It's November to Remember '94. Yup, and was that not the match that Benoit broke Sabu's neck? Or am I thinking of something else?
Lord of The Curry Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 That match rules simply for the fact that Jericho tells Benoit "Come on motherfucker!" and Benoit gives him this look that says "Oh, I'm fucking this guy up real good now". Jericho almost killing himself on his inside-outside moonsault is fun too.

Jericho almost killing himself on his inside-outside moonsault is fun too. The firs time I saw that match, I thought Jericho was going to land on his head with that moonsault to the outside.
pochorenella Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 It'll certaintly outsell the Mysterio, Cena, Brock, Shawn dvds but it won't be able to approach Flair's #'s. I understand HBK's DVD sold really, really well, so I wouldn't be too sure about that. Ditto for Foley's (the latest one), it even placed in the top 75 overall for Amazon.com, which only Flair's had done before. Can't really say for Mysterio, Brock, or Cena. Of course, Cena's being the worst of the bunch.
Guest Cheech Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 This is going to be great. I have all the Japan and WWE matches (minus the Benoit vs. Angle cage match in full), but I'm really looking forward to the other stuff.
Mystery Eskimo Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 I have November to Remember '95, and there is no Benoit vs. Sabu match on the card. Maybe they got the show mixed up. It's just a mistake. It's November to Remember '94. Yup, and was that not the match that Benoit broke Sabu's neck? Or am I thinking of something else? I'm pretty sure its that match. Just pre-ordered my copy...c'mon August...
Guest Askewniverse Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 Even though most of us seem hyped enough, here's a trailer for the DVD.
RavishingRickRudo Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 They don't have Austin vs. Benoit or Brock vs. Benoit or any Dynamite Kid matches??!?!??!?! God this company hates me. Beautiful.
ChrisMWaters Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 Even though most of us seem hyped enough, here's a trailer for the DVD. Anyway to download it to your hardrive?

Guest Real F'n Show Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 Chris Benoit vs. Eddie Guerrero WCW Monday Nitro (16.10.95) Anyone know if this is the first or second match they had on Nitro? I know they had two matches close together when Benoit debuted, just can't remember the dates...

The Dames Posted June 3, 2004 Report Posted June 3, 2004 I would just like to say as one of the first things I do now that I am back 100%.... Thanks to this thread, which I had just began to read about 5 minutes ago, I am now the owner of this DVD. Thanks, TSM. Dames

Speaking of DVDs, what about the Part 3 review of the Ric Flair DVD set? No rush, just a reminder. Take your time on it.
Dangerous K89 Posted June 3, 2004 Report Posted June 3, 2004 ....right. Anyway, it would be AWESOME for them to put Malenko/Benoit on there from Hog Wild 96 and include all of the bikers booing the entire match. Great times. Also, Raven/Benoit Souled Out is overated. Nice match, though.
Guest Real F'n Show Posted June 3, 2004 Report Posted June 3, 2004 Now if only the Eddie DVD, the Bret DVD, and the ECW DVD were ALL coming out in July...

The Answer To Your Question That's for you and everyone else who's curious, ChrisMWaters. Dames
Shanghai Kid Posted June 3, 2004 Report Posted June 3, 2004 A Benoit DVD outselling HBK/Foley dvds? Do some of you have this impression that Benoit is over to a point where general marks will shell out 20 bucks to watch some of his old matches? I guarantee this DVD doesn't outsell Foleys or HBK's.
Hektik Posted June 3, 2004 Report Posted June 3, 2004 A Benoit DVD outselling HBK/Foley dvds? Do some of you have this impression that Benoit is over to a point where general marks will shell out 20 bucks to watch some of his old matches? I guarantee this DVD doesn't outsell Foleys or HBK's. Well, fans are under the impression that Shawn Michaels is a legend. Most didn't even watch Michaels during his original run. It was the WWE propaganda machine that force fed this idea to the newer fans to the point where it is now widely accepted. My point is if you say something enough times people will start believing it. If they promoted Benoit better it might do better. I think it could do good if they release it in Canada the same day as in the US. I think most fans, even casual, want to see older matches from places other than the WWE. That will have to be one of this DVDs selling points.
deancoles Posted June 3, 2004 Report Posted June 3, 2004 *Wonder if they'll include any eggs and if so...what should they be? They should include the promo from October 2002 where Eddie Guerrero was ranting at Benoit for a few minutes and Benoit just stared at Eddie then walked away. Edit: Will most likely be on the Eddie DVD.
ChrisMWaters Posted June 3, 2004 Report Posted June 3, 2004 One Egg that I would like to see is, if it's been taped, Chris Benoit's FIRST match.
