Wrestling DVDs Thread

Watched a documentary on netflix (America) tonight called "Card subject to change" about independent wrestling.

I enjoyed it and would recommend it if you have netflix.

Yeah saw that a while back. Really sad to see the deterioration of Trent Acid throughout.

Ordered Bret's DVD off Silvervision last night for £7.99. Macho Man's is on sale too.

Ric Flair and The Four Hoursemen is €6 in GoldenDiscs. Might be something for the younger generation if they dont know why they're being inducted, or something to refresh us older minds ahead of the induction.

Time to rename the outdated thread title. :P

Chikara is now offering digital downloads of shows:

If you ever act on anything I will say. Download all three nights of King of Trios from last year.

Most of the DVDs I discussed on here were digital downloads anyway

On the latest episode of the Art of Wrestling CM Punk finally confirmed the news we hinted at last year: he's getting the three-disc DVD set treatment.

According to Punk himself, he's in charge of the project from top to bottom. All the way from the biggest stuff like deciding who will be interviewed for the documentary portion to what matches will be included and even down to the small, inconsequential details like what music is used. He said he hated the music the WWE offered up -- something crappy "like Switchfoot" as he put it -- so the whole thing will definitely have a definitive Punk feel to it.

Naylor, Bix and Prazak are on the wishlist of talking heads.

Andy_rse

Only £1.99 + shipping (which I think is £2.98 to Ireland, £1.99 in UK)

Batistas is only £2.99 as well. Feckers charge P&P per item though.

Netflix usa is great to view wresting DVDs

one that was mentioned earlier on that I also watched and thought was great was " card subject to change " shame about Trent Acid I did not even know he had passed away.

Also watched a documentary on the Hart family which was very good cant think of the name of it right now but worth watch if you have Netflix USA

Hart and soul?

Yeah that "card subject to change" documentary is great.

Do yourself a favour if you have the American netflix though and don't watch a documentary called "The backyard" about backyard wrestling. Its absolutely terrible. I should have turned it off after the first few minutes.

Me too.
Dammit cactus, got me interested now. Watch some of that while NXT is on tonight.

Lads honestly its worst than you can imagine.

Featuring a loving mother that films one of her sons power bombing another son on to a board of fire.

Also includes RVD saying that he is "pro backyard wrestling" :rolleyes:

I use the term documentary loosely because its mostly just clips and interviews with the backyard wrestlers.

Backyard isnt THAT bad. If you are hard up for something to watch it is fine. Very much of product of its time which obnxious nu-metal background music. Everyone needs to be aware of The Lizard. The English lads are something else too.

Cherry_Cola

The Backyard is hilarious for all the wrong reasons.

rovert

The Lizard backyarding as late as July 2010

All the McDonalds he ate caught up with him.

Watched tis and Cactus you were completely right it was trully awfull some of those backyarders have serious mental issues

Recently watched " Breaking the code " Chris Jericho story got to say this guy was always my favorite wrestler but after watching this he only went up in my estimation

also watched the triumph and tragedy of WCCW - This was a tough watch as the Von Erichs have been through so many tragedies and Fritz always seemed more interested in having one of his kids be a world champion then he did in there personal life

Controversial, out-spoken, brash…those are just three words that describe the man known worldwide as CM Punk, and during his tenure in Ring of Honor, he more than lived up to those labels. He also established himself as one of the finest professional wrestlers in the world today with historic bouts against the likes of Samoa Joe, Homicide, Bryan Danielson, & Christopher Daniels, and will forever be considered a legend in ROH. But for three months in the summer of 2005, Punk shocked Ring of Honor fans & officials alike and it all began one night in June when ROH gathered to bid farewell to one of their own as Punk challenged for the ROH World Title one final time. What happened that evening kicked off three months of chaos as Punk took the World Title hostage and left ROH scrambling to find the man he would dethrone him. Be it Roderick Strong, Samoa Joe, or Christopher Daniels, they each faced off with Punk in hopes of reclaiming the title for Ring of Honor. They were three of the most exciting, unpredictable, chaotic months in ROH’s history, and they have since come to be known as “The Summer of Punk”…

I've already put together a nice little home made version of that. Still though, I'll more than likely pick it up.

Your version likely has copyright music and this probably doesnt.

jaykhunter

I hope they include lots of promos, that'd be more of a draw than watching a collection of matches; to see how ROH do a big storyline. Definitely keep an eye out for reviews.
