zappafrank 0 Report post Posted July 23, 2007 For what it's worth, Comcast in Pittsburgh is showing a Benoit-less version of the MNW. In fact, the episode is listed as lasting 3 hrs, 24 min, but in fact ends before 3 hrs, 10 min. And just today the ep of PTW that expires on Tues showed up. Not that I'll be upset if I don't get around to watching it, but with WWE 24/7 having been around for a few years now, and in my area for just under a year, you'd think they'd have worked out the bugs by now.

cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2007 I didn't care either way since that was one of the worst ECW shows I've seen since getting 24/7. The whole extended fan cam thing was incoherent. And yes, the version I got of GAB 1990 off 24/7 is in fact the full PPV. I much prefer the full show to the clipped VHS tapes. There's some interesting bits like Doug Furnas doing a strongman gimmick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Check out that Florida show as it has a lot of good old footage of guys like Terry Funk and Bob Orton Jr. If Orton had a crewcut in the 70s he would look exactly like Randy.

DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2007 Survivor Series 93 always was (and still as, best I could tell) scheduled to be on for 3 weeks, expiring next week. I know this because I made a point to check the date to see how long I had to find a new VHS tape (the rarest form of recording material on earth right now). Last I checked I didn't have the Bash for Hall of Fame, but had CWF, SNME, and NWA. Somehow I knew I wouldn't get the HOF or Bash (Cogeco and/or WWE is very bad with updating the Legends section correctly and skips certain Big Ones lately).

Guest flairfan Report post Posted July 25, 2007 Ok, I got the HOF 2007.. 176 Min I also got the GAB 90 at 164min. SO FULL PPV Version!!!! I also got the SNME.. Also got the new NWA 11/9/85, BUT REALLY NOT. I clicked to watch it and it was 10/26/85!!! What a load of BS!!!! That one has already shown before. Anyone actually get 11/9/85??? or is it just my stupid COMCAST? if anyone did get 11/9/85 I would be willing to trade for a SP DVD copy of it.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
10 Pounds 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2007 Last I checked I didn't have the Bash for Hall of Fame, but had CWF, SNME, and NWA. Somehow I knew I wouldn't get the HOF or Bash (Cogeco and/or WWE is very bad with updating the Legends section correctly and skips certain Big Ones lately). Same here. I remember Superbrawl showing up a few days after the Wednesday update, so maybe it will be the same for GAB '90. There must be a law forbidding Cogeco to air any 2007 footage. According to them, the footage they air come from a list from WWE. I've emailed WWE three times since the last couple of months, I didn't got any reply. On another subject, Survivor Series '93 has one of my earliest memories of wrestling with the Undertaker/Yokozuna bits, where Taker does the zombie situp after taking a Bonzai Drop and no selling his face being smashed into the stairs and doing the same to Yokozuna....man I thought Taker was INVINCIBLE. Nobody got up from the Bonzai drop and this guy did it like it was nothing. I remember the Yoko/Taker buildup from Rumble '94 where Yokozuna was afraid of caskets and sweated buckets whenever Taker was around. Good memories Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2007 I know when I first subscribed to 24/7 last summer it was shortly after WWE began airing recent PPVs on the channel and Cogeco here didn't have Judgment Day - Vengeance 2006 (not sure about Backlash). I actually thought it might have been a problem with the Canadian DVD distributor since they release them later in Canada, making their 24/7 airing and DVD release very close together, but then SummerSlam 2006 - Royal Rumble 2007 came on 24/7 without a problem.

That 1976 FL show is hilarious, since you can see Terry Funk with one of the wildest 70s shirts you'll ever see. Looks like Jack Nicholson in Five Easy Pieces.
