This weeks wild wednesday:

Charlie Haughy

Definitely getting that WM25 set. Never saw the event and its the only WM DVD from like wm15 that I dont have.

Is it a good event?

CMpunked

It is quite a good event, i cant watch it owing to it being constantly replayed by my nephews.
But for 7 quid its a steal.

GTR63

Hbk vs Taker alone is worth the price. That English event has Nash vs Trips best match in their forgetable series, flair does a huge juice job if i'm not mistaken.

the groutch

a few blurays here

tempted by the DX one

This could be a bit of a stupid question but if I get a blu ray player would my standard DVDs work on it as well?

Not liking these blu rays now with added extras. Even though it wasn't the best match I was annoyed the Bret vs Shawn Survivor Series 97 match wasn't on the DVD release of the greatest rivals set.

michael.etc...

For me, that's a beguiling match listing. Far, far, far too many title matches, and non-tourney efforts. I'd have shoved on far more of the qualifiers that are lesser seen keeping the focus on the actuual KOTR.

jaykhunter

Yeah, it looks more like the Nitro DVD (where it's just a quick word before matches, as opposed to a documentary). Not interested. I'd rather they talked about the story of the KOTR and go through it year by year and talk about what the winner went on to afterwards. it'd be hilarious when they got to Shamrock and Billy Gunn :P

Lord TSC

Asking for the Bret vs HBK and MITB DVDs as gifts for Xmas. Not got a WWE DVD for years but both of those are must buys for me...

Any WWE footage pre-2008 will be standard definition so you're not benefiting quality wise on a BluRay

If you paid me a fiver to watch December to Dismember I would still cry.

starviewadams

Mania 18 was pretty good,aside from Triple H vs Stephanie w/Chris Jericho.

CMpunked

Aren't tag classics supposed to have two ppvs in the box?

Yeah that was one of the most forgetable matches ever. Stephanie ruined it like the McMahons tended to do for a period after the turn of the century I hated that McMahon in every corner WM 2000 Main Event.
Btw December to Dismember must be the worst ppv/dvd in wrestling history avoid it like a annoying ex girlfriend.

messi1985

well lads, anyone know of any dvd that has the invasion storyline?? i got "wwe action" today thinking it had it all but only had half of it.. invasion ppv and survivor series 2001 ppv only have the matches.. looking for something with the whole storyline. really wanna see it again.. cheers

MitchKoobski

I'd love to find the same, but I don't think it exists. Really all you can make do with is a bunch of PPV's from the storyline.

Yep same here, highly recommend searching the deep blue seas for this golden treasure.

Attitude Era FTW :cool:

MitchKoobski

....could em...someone....definitely in no way direct me via pm to where it is....so I can report it........I've searched for over a year and found nothing.

FreezeUp

Watching this and it is brutal in how bad it is - which makes it very watchable for me : )

But my question is, does anybody know what the independent promotion featured throughout is? Looks like early to mid 90's with Bob Orton, Sgt Slaughter etc
