i just watched 'the rise and fall of wcw'

[kareru]

it was great, it wasn't the mirror masturbation fest like the ecw dvd was which i thought was kind of cool of the wwe considering how much they hated wcw being in business.

damn i miss wcw

[DAMN iNATOR]

Mr. McMahon and everyone else in "teh 'E'" could give a fuck less about WCW...as he once said...(\/):

It was a good documentary, but it seemed to not go into much detail. Although, Jericho saying he would have considered buying WCW if he'd known how little Vince payed for it was funny.

[muffalufagus]

what i miss is the fact that wrestling was once the shit to watch. from 1994-2001... it's been a joke since. bring back WcW and ECW!!! PLEASE!@!!!

Well, if you hadn't noticed, it's not about who's better or gets better ratings or even more fans, promoters could give a shit less...if you want to know what the biz is really about these days, refer to the vid in post #2 in here.

It's clearly ALL ABOUT THE MONAYYYYY!

more fans + more ratings = more monay

[kareru]

on another note, the matches on the dvd are great ive only just started watching the matches, but there is some quality wrestling matches

[taker707]

how did u guys get this movie it doesnt even come out till tuesday

[Kami Raki]

how did u guys get this movie it doesnt even come out till tuesday
People who got advance copies leaked it online.

[Indifferent Clox]

not as good as rise and fall of ecw.

[Indifferent Clox]

At least documentary wise

[DAMN iNATOR]

more fans + more ratings = more monay

That monay, monay, yeah, yeah!...

[kareru]

At least documentary wise

but the matches on the dvd are awesome, most of the feature sting and flair.

whats the betting that the next dvd will be......

'the rise and rise of the wwe'


also on the documentary did anyone else see the photo of the old newspaper that clearly mentioned the wwF but they had photoshoped it to say wwE?
i thought that was a bit unnecessary, you can't change the past.

[abec]

Dusty Rhodes forehead is fucking disgusting.

[Londoner]

Just been watching the dvd again, great stuff imo.

[Anybody Thrilla]

So the DVD's available now? Excellent. I'll pick it up with Savage's tomorrow. :y:

[Londoner]

Dunno, ive been watching on the vault. :D think its released tmrw though actually.

[kareru]

So the DVD's available now? Excellent. I'll pick it up with Savage's tomorrow. :y:

it comes out tomorrow

we acquired it illegally.
but i will be buying for my collection

[CSL]

Finally found some Rapidshare links for this (19 parts :|) Gonna watch later

[Juan]

Finally found some Rapidshare links for this (19 parts :|) Gonna watch later

You can watch it via Vault Archives...

[CSL]

Yeah but I can't watch it through my TV that way or make copies for friends etc etc

:kiss: though

[erickman]

best buy has it an fall of ecw for 22 bucks for both.

[Gertner]

Funny listening to Vince spout his crap. Vince's beef with Turner is retarded. Turner kicked Vince off the air because Vince's show was tanking in the ratings. GCW did MUCH better in the rating than the WWF.

The Fall of WCW

http://www.obsessedwithwrestling.com/pictures/a/allenfunk/12.jpg

[CSL]

Just watched it. Documentary was decent enough given what they had personnel wise. As I feared from Day 1, it was way too short (The Horseman doc was like nearly 45 minutes longer than this) Glossed over too much stuff also. Not bad though. Would have been nice to see recent Bischoff stuff, Nash, Sting, DDP, Hogan etc but none of that could be helped (dunno about DDP) Another doc that made me long for the territories after some of the footage and listening to Jim and David Crockett, Flair, Dusty etc. And do ya think Mike Graham wants a job?

[kareru]

they covered a lot of stuff in the monday night wars dvd

Graham does alot of stuff for the WWE. He's on the 24/7 panel frequently, does stuff with FCW. Apparently, he's a close friend of Dusty Rhodes, plus his dad was Eddie Graham, which helps.

[erickman]

they needed a 4th disk, have 1 disk for 70s matches 1 for 80s anthe 3rd for the 90's

Ah, that might explain it then. Thought it was strange a guy with his background was using the terminology that he was

[Gertner]

Wish there would have been some of Raven's matches.

[Gertner]

Mike Graham was also a former AWA Lightweight champ, and used to wrestle in WCW. He's got a vast knowledge of wrestling. I really like listening to him on 24/7. He also worked with Bischoff in the AWA and from what u saw on the DVD worked with him in WCW as well.

[Gertner]

Kevin Sullivan looks like he's aged well. Terrible booker, but he was involved in WCW for ages.

Uh huh. I meant in terms of him not once mentioning the word 'wrestling' or 'wrestlers', a good old Vince tactic

[Gertner]

lol I love how one of the matches is the Rodman/Hogan v DDP/Malone where Rodman is clearly drunk off his ass.

[Fignuts]

Kinda dissapointed.

[Gertner]

The matches on the 2nd dvd are AMAZING. the R&R Express vs the Midnights was incredible. The six man: Windham, Luger, Sting vs Anderson, Blanchard, Flair: amazing. Flair vs Steamboat :amazing. The 2nd DVD is worth the price alone.

[Sixx]

Do they have drunk Scott Hall?

[Gertner]

lol nope, they have drunk Dennis Rodman falling on his ass after every move.
