BHK Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 http://www.wwe.com/ppv/ Steve Austin vs. Ricky Steamboat, Bash at the Beach, 1994 Diesel vs. Sid, In Your House, 1995 Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Marc Mero, In Your House, 1996 Rey Mysterio vs. Psychosis, Bash at the Beach 1996 Triple H vs. Mankind, Canadian Stampede, 1997 Undertaker vs. Vader, Canadian Stampede, 1997 Rey Mysterio vs. Chris Jericho, Bash at the Beach, 1998 Miss Hancock vs. Daffney, Bash at the Beach, 2000 The Rock vs. Kurt Angle vs. Undertaker, WWE Championship, Vengeance 2002 The Dudleys vs. Chris Benoit & Eddie Guerrero, Vengeance 2002 Eddie Guerrero vs. Chris Benoit, Vengeance, 2003 Undertaker vs. John Cena, Vengeance, 2003 The PPV itself actually looked quite tempting, now throw in two matches from the greatest non-Wrestlemania PPV of all time, Benoit/Guerrero, and Austin/Mero, which I remember being quite decent(although I haven't seen it in a long time) and I tihnk I'm almost sold. Anyone have star ratings and opinions on any of the WCW matches? I either haven't seen them or can't remember them.
Jack_Bauer Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 Holy crap ! I might think about getting this.
algrim Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 Most of these matches are great,IMO. Instead of the Wedding Gown match, they could've included the blowoff match between Benoit and Kevin Sullivan from BATB '97. Other matches that come to mind are from the '99 edition of ECW Heat Wave: Taz vs. Tajiri and RVD & Jerry Lynn vs. Impact Players.
Art Sandusky Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 Undertaker/Rock/Angle was fun. Angle's demanding attention at the beginning from the other two competitors was golden.
Guest Choken One Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 Benoit/Sullivan is on the Upcoming Benoit DVD. This shit is awesome. If I had a cpu that would handle it, i'd so get this. Three ***1/2+ matches and nothing really bad...Great Listing.
BHK Posted July 7, 2004 Author Report Posted July 7, 2004 However, if you're WWE, how can you put those two matches from Canadaian Stampede up there over the 10-man? HOW?
Guest Choken One Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 More Content by putting up two ***3/4 matches instead of the 10 man. it's like complaining they put on the Angle/Benoit and the TLC Match but not Austin/Rock from wmx7.
BHK Posted July 7, 2004 Author Report Posted July 7, 2004 Ah, I understand now. Didn't think of it like that.
Guest Choken One Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 I want to know if they will add these as DVD extras? You might as well do it since you have such a large Video Libary...they have to utlize it as much as they can outside of the 24/7 channel.
Internet Warfare Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 And they might be holding the 10-man tag for Bret's DVD.
Promoter Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 Does the wwe give away this year's Great American Bash with the Vengence ppv telecast in the United States? They are here. Perhaps the reason for not showing the 10 man was that Owen and Pillman were on it. People might take that as the wwe trying to pocket off two deceased wrestlers. A stretch, but you know how the net can be.
Guest Choken One Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 nah thats not why... In all likihood, it's being saved for The Bret DVD.
Placebo Effect Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 God damn. Has somebody invented a program that always you cap a broadcast that is streaming on your computer?
algrim Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 Benoit/Sullivan is on the upcoming Benoit DVD. That's the match they had at GAB '96. I was referring to the match they had at BATB '97. It had a stipulation that if Sullivan couldn't pin Benoit, he would retire.
The Mandarin Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 How long are the matches on your computer for? Do you get to keep the files on your computer or is it only for a week or so (or however long you're able to keep the VODs)?
Boner Kawanger Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 Rey Mysterio vs. Psychosis is a near-perfect match. I have no business dealing out stars, but I'd give it somewhere between **** and ***** stars. One of the greatest openers of all time (right next to Bret/Owen) and one of the bet cruiser matches I've ever seen. I have the BATB '96 tape, and I watch this match nearly every month.
RavishingRickRudo Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 I was underwhelmed by Mysterio/Psychosis. I had seen it after having watched Mich Pro 10 man tags and Mysterio/Eddie, and the "crazy spots" seemed relatively tame.
Boner Kawanger Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 Well, it was one of the first big cruiser matches I'd ever seen.
Guest Choken One Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 if you ask me...that match was the match that *made* the CW divison.
RavishingRickRudo Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 I dunno if those are defenses of the match or completely indepenent of "this match is relatively tame". It was 8 years ago. Unless you've been watching the WWExclusively and closing your eyes during the Hardy TLC period, there is no reason to be excited by Mysterio/Psi BATB 96.
BHK Posted July 8, 2004 Author Report Posted July 8, 2004 How long are the matches on your computer for? Do you get to keep the files on your computer or is it only for a week or so (or however long you're able to keep the VODs)? I'm too lazy to dig up the thread on the free GAB Bash content, but it's in there. Off the top of my head I believe you can stream the matches for either 7 or 10 days. You can't download or keep them though. I'm not aware of any programs that allow you to cap streaming video. Is anyone else? Also, if this is a monthly thing from now on, which it appears to be, they might want to cut back on match quanity per PPV. If they're restricting themselves to the month of the show, if they put out a dozen matches every time, they'll run out of actual GOOD matches quite quickly.
Guest Choken One Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 I'm already Salivating for the Potential the SummerSlam WebCast could have Bret/Perfect Bret/Bulldog Owen/Bret Shawn/Ramon Shawn/Vader Austin/Taker Shane/Test TLC 1 Angle/Austin Brock/Rock and so many more. Hell, just to be cute...throw in one of the ROAD WILD matches as well.
Placebo Effect Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 I'll ask around about a program that caps streaming video. If so, hell, seven people can throw $5 in, and I'll (or someone else)upload it to WrestlingTorrents the next day.

If so, hell, seven people can throw $5 in, and I'll (or someone else)upload it to WrestlingTorrents the next day. The show, plus those matches, I'd pay $5 for that. 500K has to be somewhat close to DVD quality.
Gert T Posted July 8, 2004 Report Posted July 8, 2004 I'm already Salivating for the Potential the SummerSlam WebCast could have Hell, just to be cute...throw in one of the ROAD WILD matches as well. Hell show the whole 1998 Road Wild card, because it is so hard to rate what shit is worse. How about the Steamboat-Austin match from the Clash in 1994. If that's on there I may get the Summerslam one. Great idea by the WWE, but I can't justify spending 35 bucks for something that I cannot tape/record. (I hope Interpol is not reading this....)
JustJoe2k5 Posted July 9, 2004 Report Posted July 9, 2004 How about Chris Benoit vs. Dean Malenko from Hog Wild '96, didn't Hog Wild become Road Wild or did they change the month of the show with the name?
sluggo Posted July 9, 2004 Report Posted July 9, 2004 If PPVS are still streamed in WMP, you can use WM Recorder 9. Worked great before the big price jump.
BHK Posted July 9, 2004 Author Report Posted July 9, 2004 If PPVS are still streamed in WMP, you can use WM Recorder 9. Worked great before the big price jump. Yeah, they're still streamed in that, and thanks for the info, I appreciate it. How about Chris Benoit vs. Dean Malenko from Hog Wild '96, didn't Hog Wild become Road Wild or did they change the month of the show with the name? Yes Hog Wild became Road Wild, and the month was kept the same.
Lt. Al Giardello Posted July 9, 2004 Report Posted July 9, 2004 Summerslam one better include, Rock/HHH, Summerslam 1998. One of my personal favorite matches of all-time.
