I can't wait for the Rumble box set, just so I can play the Royal Rumble drinking game like every night.

:drool:

[Crippla]

Marking the fuck out right now. Especially excited about the Rumble Anthology.

[Dorkchop]

Wow, all of these sound pretty damn awesome.

[Chuck Jones]

I'm getting the Stone cold one for sure...

[ron the dial]

The only one that I'm not looking forward to is Great Families of Wrestling. The rest should be great.

[Crippla]

Great Families of Wrestling sounds interesting to me. Mostly because I'm a mark for The Harts, Von Erichs, etc.

[FourFifty]

THE HORSEMEN DVD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :drool:

[Crippla]

They should just sell all these DVDs in one big collection.

[mrslackalack]

Only DVD's I am not suprised that made the list were Hennig and one on the Terrotories.

[mrslackalack]

ECW Extreme Rules- Heh, They should have just made a Bloodsport II and added several of the WWECW matches on that.

DX- Id like to see Disc 1 be documentary, Disc 2 be matches, and Disc 3 be promos/skits

RR Anthlogy- I hope they divide them up in seperate volumes like Wrestlemania

Horsemen- See DX^

Families- This sounds quite interesting

Ladder Match- Great comtemplation, but many of the matches that will be on here will be already out on DVD

WCCW- Should be a great documentary

Rey- Hope they include more WCW, ECW and WWE main event matches of his than they did 610.

Cena- Might be alright, I wonder if they will use the OVW footage in some of it

Austin- Finally he gets a complete set like the others

[Hanso Amore]

................This means.....


Tully will be on DVD.


The horsemen dvd needs to cover nothing after 1991. If I see Mongo or Roma, I will kill myself.

The New & Improved DX - 3 DVD set (2/20/07)
"The New and Improved D-Generation X will be a 3-disc release covering the reformation of the group that includes promos, matches and the chaos the duo of The Game and HBK caused Mr. McMahon."

OK, so they put every match and promo since the revival on there, and then had to come up with 3 more hours of crap? I'll pass. They shove it down our throats every Monday, I'm not going to spend money on it.

................This means.....


Tully will be on DVD.


The horsemen dvd needs to cover nothing after 1991. If I see Mongo or Roma, I will kill myself.

They should minimize their roles but stopping at 91 means skipping over guys like Pillman, Benoit and Malenko.

ECW: Extreme Rules - 2 DVD set (1/30/07)
"A two-disc compilation that showcases some of the best matches of the return of ECW, as well as vignettes about the newest Extremists. Hosted by Tazz and Joey Styles, ECW: Extreme Rules highlights both the new Extremists (such as Big Show, C.M. Punk, Test, Kevin Thorn, etc.) as well as the ECW Originals (including RVD, Sabu, Sandman, Dreamer, and Balls)."

Unless something drastic happens in the next couple months there won't be enough material to fill out 1 disc with decent material, let alone 2.

The New & Improved DX - 3 DVD set (2/20/07)
"The New and Improved D-Generation X will be a 3-disc release covering the reformation of the group that includes promos, matches and the chaos the duo of The Game and HBK caused Mr. McMahon."

If you want this, I hate you

Royal Rumble Anthology (3/13/07)
"January 28, 2007 will be the 20th Anniversary of the Royal Rumble. WWE fans have always loved this unique match, and when a WrestleMania championship opportunity sweetened the winner’s pot, the Royal Rumble became one of the most important annual events on WWE’s calendar. This DVD set will depict, in their entirety, the first 20 Royal Rumbles in a handsome collector’s box. The first 12 Royal Rumble events have never been available on DVD."

Lies, they've been available on R2 for absolutely ages now. If anybody *really* wanted them they'd import

Ric Flair & The Four Horsemen (4/10/07)
"One of the first, and coolest, factions in sports-entertainment was The Four Horsemen. This multi-disc release will cover the creation of the Horsemen and is filled with exclusive iterviews from many of the Superstars who were part of this groundbreaking group as well as rivalry highlights and complete matches."

I fear some revisionism somewhere in here but they treated Flair's set with respect so hopefully this should be ok

Great Families of Wrestling (6/5/07)
"Some of the greatest WWE Superstars have come from family legacies that include the names McMahon, Von Erich, Funk, Hart, Guerrero, Orton, Gagne, Colon, DiBiase, Rhodes and more. Relationships and long held secrets from fathers, sons, brothers and grandsons of sports-entertainment will all be explored in the Great Families of Wrestling DVD."

I doubt there will be anything revealed here that isn't already known or has been put on record in interviews already, but it's an intruiging idea

The Ladder Match (8/28/07)
DVD compilation looking at the evolution of the ladder match over the years.

Pretty much all the ladder matches that would ever make a best of DVD area already ON DVD, so this seems a waste of time. It's not like the cage matches DVD where there was/is material dating back to the 70s, ladder matches only really happened more than once in a blue moon post 1992

The Triumph and Tragedy of World Class Championship Wrestling (9/18/07)
Documentary on the Von Erichs and WCCW.

If it's better than Heroes of World Class I will eat my hat. Seriously, this just strikes me as blatant opportunism

Rey Mysterio: The Biggest Little Man (10/23/07)
"Relive some of the Rey Mysterio’s classic rivalries with Superstars like Eddie Guerrero, Kurt Angle, Mark Henry, Randy Orton, JBL, Chris Benoit. Also, Rey Mysterio: The Biggest Little Man will showcase some of the high-flying Superstar’s most memorable tag team matches with partners RVD, Eddie Guerrero and Batista."

Again, pretty much every single match on here will be on DVD in some form. If you like Rey then I guess this is for you but meh, they already covered his background and home life and everything else so if there's anything other than matches on here I'd be surprised. Plus do you *really* want to go through the whole neverending Eddie angle again?

John Cena: This Is My Life (11/6/07)
"John Cena is more than just a WWE Champion. In 2005, Cena released his highly successful debut CD, “You Can’t See Me” and in 2006 he starred in his first major motion picture, The Marine. Cena has reached the next level of Superstardom, and John Cena: My Life will chronicle his meteoric rise to the top of the sports-entertainment world with highlights from his biggest matches and exclusive interviews."

Meh, I can't see too many people being interested in this tbh. I will be proved wrong but unless you're desperate to hear what going to his own movie premiere is like I can't see any reason to buy this

Steve Austin's Life and Legacy (11/20/07)
"A career-spanning retrospective of the Rattlesnake that highlights Austin’s amazing career and his legendary rivalries with Bret Hart, The Rock, Mick Foley, Triple H, Kurt Angle, Undertaker, Kane, Scott Hall, Eddie Guerrero and more. Stone Cold Steve Austin’s Life and Legacy will also include footage and matches from WCW, ECW, and his Smokey Mountain days.

Now this is the sort of thing they should be doing more of. About time the man who made the most money in US wrestling history got the treatment he deserves

[Avenger]

Holy shit the Austin one, the Families one and the FUCKING Horsemen one will be awesome.

[Rammsteinmad]

They all sound really good. Can't wait.

[Hanso Amore]

They should minimize their roles but stopping at 91 means skipping over guys like Pillman, Benoit and Malenko.


Pillman was a horseman for all of 5 minutes, and all of his greatness while a member took place in his own storylines, without anyone else involved. This is about the Horsemen, not their individual careers.

As with Benoit, a member yes, but no great Horseman storylines. The only thing that really might make the DVD post 96 years will be the Double J and Mongo crap (I wish I could forget it), The Curt Hennig turn (that was good though) and Arn not wanting Malenko( Which had great matches, but I doubt will make it)

One thing no one has mentioned.....


Do you realize that this has the chance to have a DVD full of....











War Games....


Im cumming

[Chavo Classic]

The Biggest Little Man? WTF kind of title is that?! :rofl:
