Can't go wrong with the price of $14.95. I would buy it.

I wonder what Benoit/2 Cold match it is.

Vampiro Vs. Pirata Morgan With Super Crazy - A Mexican match that pits the famous Vampiro in the ring against one of his home town enemies. This one takes a while to get going but once it does, it’s pretty fun.

 

Eddie Guerrero And Art Barr Vs. Santo And Octagon - Another Mexican match, this time a tag team that pits the two mulleted men against the masked warriors. This one is pure camp, but sadly the match is comprised of three clips and is not presented in its entirety.

 

Terry Funk Vs. Doug Gilbert - This one is hardcore! Pit Terry Funk and Doug Gilbert in the ring and give them some chains to whip each other with and what you’re left with is an exceptionally brutal and bloody match that proves just why Terry Funk is the king of the ring.

 

Konnan Vs. Perro Aguayo - A very nasty and extremely bloody cage match between these two Mexican stars is full of hurt. Don’t let your kids watch this one, it’ll give them nightmares!

 

Chris Benoit Vs. Too Gold Scorpio - This is a straight up battles of muscles – no flair (aside from the costumes) and no gimmicks, just technique and brute strength.

 

Liger Vs. Great Sasuke - A match that looks like it was shot in Mexico featuring two Japanese guys who look like they walked off the set of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers!

 

Konnan Vs. Rey Mysterio Jr. - This is some seriously berserk riot footage featuring the crowd going ape and tossing chairs and whatever else they can find into the ring. There isn’t really any wrestling here, but it’s still wild footage.

 

Psicosis And Heavy Metal Vs. Rey Mysterio Jr. And Ultimo Dragon - Another solid tag team entry, featuring some great costumes and some flamboyant maneuvering but no real gimmicks or stunts.

 

Sabu Vs. Al Snow Vs. Surprise Wrestler - A great match with a kick ass surprise appearance by a personal favorite (I’m not going to spoil who the surprise wrestler who appears towards the end of this match is, sorry!) of mine mired by poor camera work.

The review does not really sell the matches, it looks like it was done by a person who thinks that WWE is the only company worth watching.

 

Wow, what a mixed bag this disc is in terms of visual quality. Some of the matches were shot by professional crews using decent equipment and proper lighting – other matches were shot on a handheld camcorder under whatever natural lighting was available in the arena at the time. As such, quality is all over the place. Some bouts look nice, others not so nice. Sadly, the majority of them fall into the not so nice category and to make matters worse, the transfer is riddled with compression artifacts and edge enhancemen

Is this a commercial dvd or is this one of those dvd-r comps that is made by a tape trader?

it's not 2 Cold. It's 2 Gold, 2 Cold's evil twin

"2 Gold" was Scorpio's nickname in ECW when he was both Tag Team and Television Champion. Same guy.
