Ordered a bunch of 2002 ppvs from half.com cause it's cheap as fuck. They all had awesome extras. Extra matches, semi-shoot post match interviews, and other backstage stuff.

Meanwhile, I just got the Hell in the Cell DVD, and it has one extra. Cody Rhodes being taken out of the ring on a stretcher. Whoopty fucking do.

They need to go back to having those extras, because they were really cool. Wrestlemania dvd is the obvious exception.

Wrestlemania 22 Collector's edition was the last one I bought. Money well spent. :cool:

Yeah, like I said, wrestlemania dvds are still great. But the reguler ppvs, even bigger ones like summerslam, only offer one extra, as opposed the 7 or 8 of years past. Lazy.

Yeah they dont even bother to put inserts in the DVDs anymore, I mean seriously would it be such a huge hassle for WWE to put them in there?

They need all that paper for (insert something witty about John Cena here).

It's early, give me a break.

Definitely agree.

The Royal Rumble 2000 DVD had fucking loads, including highlights from the '98 and '99 Rumble.

The last DVD I bought that I thought had decent extras was..night of champions 2008? 2007? I believe. It had some matches, interviews with a ton of former champions, etc.

The extras from Survivor Series 2001 are probably the best I've seen. Flairs return in full, and Heymans firing. Good shit. :y:

This past Summerslam's DVD extra was only a highlight clip of the dark match Diva battle royal, not even the whole thing!

Probably has to do with them also running WWE 24/7 as a pay service and a lot of those good matches they give away as extras would make more money if they kept them on monthly WWE 24/7 fee instead. Make people want to pay to watch WWE 24/7 instead of having to give them away to help sell certain dvds.
