Looks like they're gonna highlight the period where Flair took the WCW title with him to the WWF.

Kind of odd match listings all around, some are necessary I guess, some are left out.

All the matches on disc 3 are pretty good including the Mysterio-Orton match.

I may be getting kinda technical here, but isn't the WWE's current World Heavyweight Championship only go from Triple H in 2002 to present?

The Undisputed was the combination of both WWE and WCW belts, and was then changed into the "WWE" Championship.

Then Bischoff brought back the World Heavyweight Championship with a clean slate.

Oh fuck it, who cares. Cool DVD.

Correct. But it has a lineage with the WCW World Heavyweight title and the NWA World title.

Good lord, what were they thinking with the wwe choices?

The Taboo tuesday one especially, should never be replayed, ever again.

"Here are some matches that aren't likely to make it to any other DVD."

Everything from 02 and after should not be on that list.

Fixed.

I'd be interested in the first 2 disks. The third disc, not so much.

To be honest, always wanted a wrestling dvd that covers more of the history of pro wrestling starting at the beginning up until the change from a "sport" to "show style" (around 1950s). The only problem would be how hard it might be to get those early matches as extras and might end up being boring than something done by the History Channel.

I doubt they will spend more than 10 minutes in the pre-NWA/1950s era based on that Chapters list.
