King Kamala 0 Report post Posted October 5, 2007 Got this DVD that features the ill-fated IGeneration PPV from '00/'01ish for a dollar at Wal-Mart. For those who can't remember (who could forget), it was a pay per view from Australia that was main evented by a street fight between Curt Hennig Vs Dennis Rodman in a street fight. In other "action", Tatanka fought The One Man Gang for the International title, Brutus Beefcake fought The Barbarian and The Legion of Doom went against Public Enemy in a tables match. I'm expecting some Heroes of Wrestling level crap here- is my assumption correct? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Brett Wolverton Report post Posted October 5, 2007 I watched it and all I can really remember of it is Johnny Grunge basically walking backwards into a table to go through it. Rather anti-climatic table spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Smues Report post Posted October 5, 2007 Isn't the commentary team on that show Mark Madden and Jeremy Borash? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Smues Report post Posted October 5, 2007 I must have been thinking of something else, because apparantly the commentary team is Ted Dibiase and Vince Mancini. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Kamala 0 Report post Posted October 5, 2007 You guys are thinking of the WWA PPVs from '02. I actually still have the first one with the title tournament on tape and maintain that it's a fun little show. And I don't see how I can get ripped off on a $1 wrestling DVD. Especially if it features The Barbarian on it! I'm about to pop it in and watch the first match or two. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted October 6, 2007 It's not a bad deal considering you'll routinely pay $1 for a soda you only piss out the next day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Kamala 0 Report post Posted October 6, 2007 Watched the first segment of this (not even the first match) and I have to say I'm mildly impressed by the production levels on this PPV. Not WWF or WCW level but just a rung below it (and a rung above the original ECW and about 50 rungs above Heroes of Wrestling). There's also a surprisingly large crowd (in the 10,000 range), I guess Australians are starved for entertainment. Also mildly interesting to note that Dennis Rodman is playing the heel and Curt Hennig the face. And the commentary thus far is horrible. DiBiase is playing a lame babyface color commentator and the other announcer is awful, not as bad as the Heroes of Wrestling guy but almost. And it's so obvious that they dubbed the commentary in from the States later on and that they're standing in front of a green screen during the "live shots". Just really really cheesy. And ten minutes in, there have been two attacks at a press conference. Looking forward to watching the rest tomorrow morning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
