JustJoe2k5 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2005 I was watching SuperSlams earlier today and was watching Bret Hart and Razor Ramon vs. Hakushi and Jeff Jarrett. Very good tag team match and it got me thinking about some of the other really good matches Coliseum Video put out as exclusives. Anybody have any memories of exclusive matches that you liked?

spman 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2005 The two big matches on the Smack 'Em Whack 'Em tape are highly over rated IMHO. Not bad by any means, just not particularly great either. I don't remember what tape it is, but I remebmer renting some Coliseum Video release that had Bret Hart vs Yokozuna in a cage that I thought was really good at the time. Edit: The tape with Bret Hart vs Yokozuna in a Steel Cage is Inside the WWF Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Trivia247 Report post Posted March 1, 2005 Would love to find an actual List of all the Coliseum Home video titles including the years they were made. I got a good number of them between 91-96 but would love to collect more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest LooneyTune Report post Posted March 1, 2005 To name a few... Hart Foundation v. LOD (WFest 91) The Hart Brothers vs. The Steiner Brothers (WFest 94) Owen Hart's fake World Title win in a Lumberjack Match vs. Bret Hart (Wham Bam Bodyslam I think) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest jm29195 Report post Posted March 1, 2005 Brawl in the Family has Bret vs Owen in a submissions match, 123 Kid vs Bam Bam, and Owen vs Diesel on it, all are above average.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2005 The Bossman/Hogan Steel Cage from the Saturday Night's Main Event video is of course very good. Also has Busters/Rockers on it, which goes to a DCO but is still decent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MillenniumMan831 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2005 The 4 or 5 Hart Foundation vs. British Bulldogs matches released by Coliseum have all been gems . . . even though they weren't "exclusive". While Yoko worked hard in the steel cage match vs. Bret, I could just never get into the match since there was no conceivable reason that at any point, Bret couldn't get Yoko stunned and just casually walk out the door as Yoko would widdle and waddle around.

Drury37 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2005 I can't believe no has mention Bret Hart Vs. Ric Flair from Invasion '92. That match was just a classic. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrainYou42 0 Report post Posted March 1, 2005 The Kliq tag match (HBK/Nash Vs. Kid/Hall) from Slamfest 94 is pretty good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MillenniumMan831 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2005 There's an intense Steamboat/Savage IC Title Match (pre-WMIII feud) from Toronto on Best of WWF Volume 9 that features a juicy Randy Savage bladejob. Awesome match that w/ a clean finish could be argued to be better than the WMIII match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dimensions 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2005 In relation to WWF/WWE, what was Coliseum home video? When I was younger I saw some of their videos but I didn't really become a fan of wrestling until late 98. By that time, if I'm not mistaken, WWF produced its home videos through WWF Home Video. Was Coliseum as separate organization or was it renamed WWF Home Video? And who was that quirky guy who gave the intros to the home videos? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kardo 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2005 Wrestlefest 1993 is awesome. Money Inc vs. Nastys, Terry Taylor vs. Randy Savage and Flair vs. Hennig. All are ***+ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest LooneyTune Report post Posted March 2, 2005 Coliseum Video was just a company that produced the videos for WWF until they started going down the tube, then WWF started marketing the videos themselves (and retailed MUCH cheaper) and have a company called Koch (or something) working on the videos as well. I think thats how it is though. I stand corrected if any factual errors. Off topic: How in the hell did CV get away with charging $59.95 for a 2 hour video?!

Guest The Mandingo Warrior Report post Posted March 2, 2005 Supertape II had some great stuff: the rockers getting DESTROYED by the powers of pain.. and I believe a good rockers vs. hart foundation match.. (or was this match on another tape?- I can't recall) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest LooneyTune Report post Posted March 2, 2005 Wrestlefest '90 I believe hosted Rockers/Foundation. Supertape II had Rockers/PoP (1/90 MSG) and Rockers/Valentine & Bravo (Dark Match). The PoP match was surprisingly good, but the latter match was rather boring as hell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeJordan23 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2005 One of the best ones was Monday Night Raw Prime Cuts from 1993. Great CHV. Had highlights of Shawn/Jannett, Hennig vs. Doink, Luger/Yokozuna Contract Signing with Jim Cornette, Kid vs. Razor Ramon, IRS vs. PJ Walker, Savage/Crush incident (With Yokozuna giving Crush those 4 Bonzai Drops and Savage not helping), Steiners vs. Quebeccers, 20 Man Battle Royal - Razor/Martel for the IC Title, how they make the show et cetera... dope tape. If you pass by it, cop it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2005 Off topic: How in the hell did CV get away with charging $59.95 for a 2 hour video?! Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but generally it was not uncommon $10-15 years ago to charge exhorbitantly high prices on VHS releases. This ensured that the only people who could comfortably afford them were video rental outlets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scroby 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2005 The two big matches on the Smack 'Em Whack 'Em tape are highly over rated IMHO. Not bad by any means, just not particularly great either.

landy1987 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2005 Best of WWF Volume 19 or 20 had a good Bret vs. DiBiase match and a good 16-man Battle Royal too plus Hogan vs. Rude. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest LooneyTune Report post Posted March 2, 2005 I think the Hart Foundation CV has Bret Hart v. Ricky Steamboat from the Boston Garden. Great match, and 1 of the very few times they've wrestled (if they wrestled other than this time). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
