Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Lita: It Just Feels Right is a documentry based on the flame haired divas time in the WWE. There is also lots of childhood pictures and personal footage of her home. It is a nice program which covers her rise to fame, highlighting her greatest moments, alliances and title wins. If you are a Lita fan this is definately worth buying. The DVD contains a wealth of good extras, ranging from a huge total of 10 extra matches to some video packages. There is also some amusing home video clips. The boxart is quite attractive, with a picture of Lita surrounded with a pink background. There is an insert card inside telling you all the chapters and extras. I will run through both the chapters and extras:
Main Feature:
Who is Lita? - This chapter has comments on Lita from the Hardy brothers, Trish Stratus, Stephanie McMahon and Jim Ross. It then has some introductory talking from Lita and then the music opening hits.
Big Break - A good chapter, focusing on Litas break into the independant scene. Lita then shows a collection of masks she keeps in her home kitchen. There is some fascinating OMEGA footage, and it then disscusses Litas big break into the WWE, along with her alliance with Essa Rios.
Lita Teams Up - This chapter is all about Litas alliance with the Hardy Boyz. It has several match clips from Fully Loaded and Smackdown, and also feautures the big kiss angle between Lita and Matt Hardy.
Superstar - An intresting chapter which includes Wrestlemania footage of Litas Wrestlemania debut, along with comments from Lita.
vs. Stephanie - This covers Litas feud with Stephanie in mid 2000. It shows most of the match, along with commentery from both Stephanie and Lita. Steph disscusses a injury she almost got, and Lita talks about winning the strap/
Bumpy Road - This has lots of Survivor Series 2000 footage of Lita battling Ivory. This was when Lita got a nasty cut above her eye, but still finished the match. It has some unique footage of Lita talking to her Mum after the match, and footage of Lita and her dog at home.
vs. Trish - A video package of the feud between the two divas, and highlights of the HHH/Trish vs. Rock/Lita Raw tag match. Includes comments from Trish.
vs. Chyna - Short chapter which just reviews Litas match with Chyna at Judgment Day.
Love and Hate - One minute music video covering her feud with Dean Malenko.
Diva-Licious - Lots of Hedonism footage of the divas shoot, with lots of nice swimsuit scenes with Lita. Lita also describes how she came up with the thong sticking out of pants look.
Admirers - Lita talks about her fans, and shows all the scrapbooks and merchandise she has recieved off fans. Look out for a very artistic portrait of Lita.
Bright Future - Final comments from everyone, with Lita describing what she would like to acheive in the future, along with some good in ring footage of Lita.
The main feature lasts around 60 minutes.
Extras:
Matches:
Hardy Boyz and Lita vs. T & A and Trish (Fully Loaded 00)
Strap Match - Lita vs. Trish (Raw, July 00)
Edge, Christian and Jackie vs. The Hardys and Lita (Smackdown, August 00)
Hardcore Match - Lita vs. Jackie (Raw, October 00)
Bra and Panties Match - Lita vs. Trish (Raw, October 00)

Chef,Girl,Hardys - Behind the scenes footage of Litas Chef Boyardee commercial.

There is roughly 80 minutes of extras.
Obviously, this is a must have for Lita fans. The main feauture is great and very informative on Litas career. The extras aren't too shabby either, with over 80 minutes of extra footage. It gives a nice insight on Lita, and it is well worth adding this to your DVD library.
Final Rating - Five Stars (*****) Excellent.

WWE: Elimination Chamber 2010 (2010) Review

WWE: Elimination Chamber 2010 (2010)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This was a very nice and solid ppv, i thought that both chamber matches lived up to expectations. Well thanks for reading and please rate.
Elimination chamber match for the WWE championship
Sheamus vs. John Cena vs. Triple H vs. Kofi Kingston vs. Randy Orton vs. Ted DiBiase
This was a dissapointment. When i saw the participants in this bout, i thought that this match would be a classic, but all this did was just dissapoint me. Orton and DiBiase pratically dissected Kofi Kingston. All hope was gone in this match for this match when Orton was the first one eliminated. This match never matched expectations until it came down to the game and the white rapper they call John Cena. I was a little happy until Mr.McMahon called for the next match on this card. 3.25/5
WWE chamionship
John Cena vs. Batista
This was just another screw job to the WWE and was pure domination from Batista, all this was just for Batista helping McMahon with attacks from Bret Hart. This match SUCKS!!!!!!!!!! 1.5/5
Intercontinental championship
Drew McIntyre vs. Kane
This match was a little of a surprise. This match was had some dirty work from McIntyre and some huge ground and pound from Kane. This match could have been better but the WWE was just really misusing Kane here, why would they put McIntyre to beat the former WWF champion Kane, but anyways, this match was alright, but could have been better. 3.5/5
WWE Divas championship
Gail Kim vs. Maryse
This match was changed into a just terrible match.
Le Cool vs. Maryse and Gail Kim
This was, you know what, no comment. no rating.
United States championship
The Miz vs. MVP
This match was actually enjoyable. This had some pretty nice moments and was back and forth for some moments. But this ended up with The Loser, the miz to get another cheep win. But this match is watchable and is pretty solid. Nicely done. 3/5

Eliminaton chamber match for the World Heavyweight championship
Undertaker vs. Chris Jericho vs. R-Truth vs. CM Punk vs. Rey Mysterio vs. John Morrison
This match i thought wouldn't live up to expectations, but i was wrong, this was better than the WWE title chamber earlier that night, but was evenly matched with last years world title chamber. This was very good and was hardcore at some times. Some huge moments like the 2 pods being smashed, another is the chokeslam to morrison on the steel, and another is the shocking, yet predictable ending with a sweet chine music delivered to taker. I really did like this match and thought it couldn't be any better. This was enjoyable and does have OH MY GOD! moments, very well done by all superstars and well played out by each and everyone of them. 4.5/5
Over all, this was a very nice ppv, well, mostly for the chambers, but other than that, the ppv stinks, but this is recommended(only for the chambers).

WWE: Royal Rumble 2010 (2010) Review

WWE: Royal Rumble 2010 (2010)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
"Royal Rumble 2010" is nothing special. Plain and simple. Most of this PPV lacked originality, and by the end of the broadcast, I was underwhelmed.
1) ECW Championship
Christian (champion) v. Ezekiel Jackson
---Undoubtedly the best match on the card, and I think the Atlanta crowd's participation will confirm that. I confess I haven't watched the SyFy program in a long while, but I think I will give it another look if it's going to produce solid matches like this. Christian has always been a great in-ring performer, but Jackson really stepped up to the plate. For some reason, his brutish strength is more appealing than most superstars with this kind of dominant gimmick. The action was back-and-forth, with both men coming up with some good counters to familiar spots. The pace was always quick, and the slower moments were still intense. I am very surprised at how much I enjoyed this match, and look forward to these two mixing it up some more.
"7.0 / 10"
________________________________________
2) United States Championship
The Miz (champion) v. MVP
---This match was added to the card because Teddy Long tired of Miz's backstage cockiness. Well...actually I later learned it was because of the squash Women's Championship Match, but more on that later. I like how The Miz has come along in recent months, and MVP usually entertains me. But tonight, these two seemed off. Miz was in top form, when he used his quick offense to impress the crowd, or when he sold MVP's attacks as well as he did. But MVP somehow didn't impress me. Even the Atlanta crowd started to cheer for Miz, especially when MVP's "babyface revenge" failed to get some fan sympathy. The match was pretty short, and it's not bad or anything. Just unremarkable.
"5.5 / 10"
________________________________________
3) WWE Championship
Sheamus (champion) v. Randy Orton
---This is a strange match to talk about, for a few reasons. First off, there were some neat backstage segments where Orton had heard from Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase (separately) that the other was acting odd. Because of this, Orton decided to compete alone. Another strange factor is that we have two villain characters who are forced to somehow entertain a crowd, when neither has deserved any kind of heroic sympathy. It's a tough feat, and I credit the two men for trying. Did they pull it off? To me, they did. The physical showdown was a believable performance from both men, with sensible & patient strategy. But I think after Atlanta realized that Randy Orton refused to acknowledge their strong cheers --- true to his character, by the way --- the crowd lost interest until the end. I've heard many interviews from Orton, where he admits that he likes when people chant "Boring", and likes making a crowd agitated. I thought Orton's use of psychology was excellent; Sheamus again bores me as a character, but entertains me as a competitor. The disqualification finish will annoy most people, but I see it as a sign of things to come. I like this match, but I won't recommend to anybody.
"7.0 / 10"
________________________________________
4) Women's Championship
Michelle McCool (champion) v. Mickie James
---After a well-done video package and some smacktalk from McCool, we are treated a match that lasted less than 1 minute. Now, I normally hate squashes. I would've preferred a longer match from my two favorite Divas currently in the WWE. But frankly, I thought this victory from Mickie James was short and sweet. It was time for the "Piggie James" storyline to have its happy ending. I know this was a bait-and-switch from the WWE, but I was alright with it.
"No Score"
________________________________________
5) World Heavyweight Championship
Rey Mysterio v. The Undertaker (champion)
---This title bout has the right beginning, and the right ending, but is missing the middle. You will get to see Mysterio's struggle to gain an advantage over the larger Undertaker. You will get to see Mysterio's inspiring comeback, and Undertaker's impressive victory. Unfortunately, this match was missing that middle chapter, where you see Taker and Mysterio gain a series of advantages in order to make us believe that the championship is on the line. I've become sick of the shorter Undertaker matches; his health and age are no longer an acceptable excuse for me. This problem has made challengers like CM Punk, Batista, and Rey Mysterio look unimpressive, when all of those men are capable of entertaining the crowd. It is time for Undertaker to have his marquee matches free from the championship spotlight. This "SmackDown" main event is good while it lasts, but we deserved and expected more. And why the hell was Batista in the pre-match video when he never made an appearance?
"6.5 / 10"
________________________________________
6) 30-Man Royal Rumble
---These Rumbles are hard to evaluate, so let me tell give you the Pros/Cons list.
PROS
* CM Punk was easily the best part of the Rumble. He entered at #3, and used his Straight-Edge Society propaganda on numerous occasionss. He tried to convert a few, and he ended up suckering a few. If you remember Diesel's impressive 1994 appearance, or Steve Austin's 1997 dominance, then this will be a fun treat for you.
* Beth Phoenix became the first woman to enter the 30-Man Rumble since Chyna's 2000 appearance. It was a short but very sweet showing. How she eliminated The Great Khali is one for the history books.
* Some of the newer talent to the Royal Rumble got to show off a bit. Dolph Ziggler, Evan Bourne, Kofi Kingston, R-Truth, and of course CM Punk made an impression. Granted, these appearances were mostly short ones, but they were the most memorable.
* The DX showdown between Shawn Michaels and Triple H was thankfully not held off until the very end of the Rumble. Unlike a lot of this 30-Man Rumble, the timing was unpredictable.
* I credit WWE for not taking the obvious route of having Shawn Michaels win the Royal Rumble to get the much-anticpated HBK/Taker "WrestleMania" rematch. I have no doubt we will see it. I believe most fans believe it will happen anyway. And HBK's final role in the contest was memorable.
* Edge is back! One of the greatest performers in pro wrestling history has returned months before he was rumored to be healed from his injury. Although there was a been-there-done-that feeling, seeing the Ultimate Opportunist sneak into another victory is always a pleasure.CONS
* About halfway through the 30-Man Rumble, there was very little pileup of wrestlers. At the most, you'd see 4 men in the ring from about #19 onward. I was disappointed to see this happen, because the past few Rumbles had a lot of exciting action with tons of guys in the ring. This time, they took a page out of the 2002 Rumble in Atlanta...fewer guys in the ring. Both times, I've been underwhelmed.
* John Cena was F___ing HORRIBLE! He got his tail whipped for pretty much the entire match, and the fact that he was the last guy eliminated is criminal. He tried the Attitude Adjustment like 8 times. He barely got any offense in. I like John Cena, but this was an embarassment.
* Nothing ever resulted from Legacy's involvement in the Orton/Sheamus title bout. Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase just entered the Rumble, competed like a tag team, and got eliminated like a tag team. I wish their participation earlier in the evening would've resurfaced in some way.
* Quite frankly, the action got stale towards the end. Big Show and Mark Henry made little use of their giant-vs-giant showdown. A handful of eliminations were sloppy, espeically the most pivotal one in the match: Shawn Michaels'. No one really got to be the "star" of the Rumble, except for CM Punk in the early part of the Rumble. Gifted veterans like Chris Jericho and HBK didn't get much of a reaction out of me, while some other reliable guys like Batista and John Cena lacked a spark. Edge's surprise return (good as it was) didn't involve much action from him because he entered at #29.I think my overall reaction to the 30-Man Royal Rumble is that it started great, with some creative action and humorous spots. But then about halfway, it became a plodding affair with quick eliminations and no real rhythm to it. I felt like the 2010 Rumble was on cruise control.
"6.5 / 10"
________________________________________
OVERALL
"Royal Rumble 2010" continues two WWE PPV trends: familiarity and averageness.
You've seen this stuff before. An ECW Title Match that won't matter much after all is said and done. Impromptu matches that don't really entertain. A WWE Championship showdown ending in disqualification. Undertaker delivering another shorter PPV appearance. A squash match that develops storylines more than delivering the anticipated in-ring action.
Everyone responds differently to the 30-Man Royal Rumbles, but I was disappointed.
The PPV's quality was middle of the road. You're not thankful for spending your money on the event, and you're not angry to demand a refund. You admire the effort, but condemn the shortcomings. It's sad to see my love for WWE start to diminish.

WWE WrestleMania 24 (2008) Review

WWE WrestleMania 24 (2008)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This years show did indeed have it's good, and it's bad. Although my hopes weren't too high for this years "Showcase of the Immortals" as the build up wasn't very well done in my oppinion, for a Wrestlemania anyway. Was it a good PPV? Answer: Yes, it was a BRILLIANT PPV! A good Wrestlemania? Well, for the most part, yes. A solid 4.5/5 in my oppinion. Now let's have a look at the matches while staying completely spoiler free.
John "Bradshaw" Layfield VS Finlay (w/Hornswoggle) in a Belfast Brawl
-It seemed suitable to open the show with this match as I always had fears the fans interest would wan during it. JBL is quite boring in the ring, and while I love Finlay as a wrestler, he isn't completely "over" yet. So I feared this match would be met with silence. Opening the show prevented that as it meant everything was freash for the fans. Unfortunately the match sucked. After the most build up out of any match (It dated all the way back to last year and the whole "Who is Vince's son?" angle), the most emotional storyline... we got, well we got nothing really. The "brawl" was nothing. Finlay's emotion leading up to WM was wasted. The match completely failed it's purpose.
CM Punk VS Shelton Benjamin VS Chris Jericho VS Carlito VS Montel Vontavious Porter VS Mr. Kennedy VS John Morrison in a Money in the Bank ladder match
-Good bump showcase. Not as good a match as previous years, but some awesome bumps. Seemed a bit unorganized though. Still, the winner truly deserved it, even if he was underused in the match. Shelton takes a bloody killer bump. I shared the same expression Carlito wears when it happened.

Umaga VS Batista
-This match didn't stand out at all. I don't think it was expected to though. Easily could've been done on a usual PPV or RAW/SD. Not WM worthy.
Kane VS Chavo Guerrero to win the ECW Championship
-Really, there was no one else that would've won this. And it's revealed early in the night so I don't consider it a spoiler. Kinda odd they didn't show the hyped on TV battle royal, but then again, WWE doesn't make sense often. Quick match, pretty pointless.
Ric Flair VS HBK in a career threatening match
-What an emotional match. Longtime wrestling fans are sure to be overcome with emotional during this match. A fantastic story is told in the ring, backed up solid ringwork. Besides the Money in the bank, this is the only other match so far that has had that unique WM feel.Beth Phoenix and Melina VS Maria and Ashley in a Playboy BunnyMania Lumberjill match
Lumberjills: Cherry, Eve Torres, Michelle McCool, Victoria, Mickie James, Jillian Hall, Katie Lea Burchill, Kelly Kelly, Layla and Maryse.
-I took a toilet break at the start of the match as I knew this match would be crap. A boring match made worse by a mishap during the match. Only worth watching for Snoop Dogg's entertainment. He's one cool cat.
HHH VS Randy Orton VS John Cena in a Triple Threat match to retain the WWE Championship
-The match was, alright. Didn't really tickle my fancy but I can see some people really enjoying it. Just fast forward John Cena's entrance... it's some goofy marching band entrance. Ergh! The end is quite unexpected and was well done.
Floyd Mayweather, Jr. VS The Big Show in a No Disqualification match
-This match was way better than I expected. Slow, but it had a big feeling to it. Which I found impressive, that they gained that bigtime feeling. A real shocking ending. Pure wrestling fans will despise it, but it's more entertaining than expected.
The Undertaker VS Edge to win the World Heavyweight Championship
-THIS is what Wrestlemania is about! What a main event! It had the big feeling to it and truly gave off the feeling anything can happen. The false finishes, reversals, everything was done beautifully. This match saved the show from being a 3 star Mania, to making it a 4-4.5 star mania!
As for the promo's and backstage segments... they were alright. Some entertaining ones. They all pretty much added to the WM feeling.
...Also, it looked SPECTACULAR in High-Def!!!
If possiable it should be watched in HD!
Every current wrestling fan should watch this, to see what the Mania "feeling" is. Because by the main event, the show is oozing that bigtime feel. Past fans... watch it for the classic Flair/HBK match and Edge/Taker match (Both 4- 4.5 star matches in my oppinion). Plus you get several good 3- 4 star matches. Skip the belfast brawl (which could've been good, considering the 2 wrestlers are excellent brawlers) and the Diva match.
The DVD/Blu-ray should also come with the Hall of Fame ceremony which makes this a worthy buy as we see the end of an era.
4- 4.5/5 Stars.

One of the best Rumbles I've seen for a long time.
The ECW Championship match with former champ Matt Hardy vs. then champion Jack Swagger. It was back and foward and good opener for the PPV and for me it gets a 3.5/5
Now we go to the Women's Championship match with Melina vs. Beth Phoenix, the girls always do a good job with Beth domonated most of the match with Melina coming from behind giving this match a 3.5/5
Now the WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match with John Cena in his 4th championship run vs. his old rival JBL w/ his new "employee" HBK in his corner. Not much to say in this match cause like always John Cena wins until losing the title the next month in the Elimination Chamber. 2/5
Now we move on to the WWE Championship Match with Jeff Hardy in his first run as a World Champion vs. his old TLC "buddy" Edge. Before the match even stared then Smackdown GM Vickie Guerrero makes the match no DQ so her nephew Chavo can get involed in the match for Edge. In the end Matt turned on his own brother so Edge can win his 8th world championship. 4/5
And now the MAIN EVENT the ROYAL RUMBLE MATCH with Rey Mysterio(who lasted a long time in there)and John Morrison staring at #1 and #2. This was an interesting Rumble because Orton kicked Vince McMahon in the head so it was unknown what will happen if he won or not. When Triple H who entered at #7 and Randy Orton #8 they got a huge pop from the fans like always. But to my surprise Rob Van Dam was a guest entrent at #25 and crowd went crazy! But in the end with help of Ted DiBiase and Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton wins the match and will main event The 25th Anniversary of WrestleMania!!! 5/5

It's the dream of every superstar--to headline WrestleMania. For one man out of 30, the dream becomes reality at the Royal Rumble. Whoever outlasts 29 other competitors earns himself a championship match at WrestleMania 24. The superstars of Raw, Smackdown, and ECW, including past winners John Cena, Undertaker, Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Rey Mysterio, and Batista, and superstars looking to add this impressive goal to their resume, including Jeff Hardy, Matt Hardy, Edge, Kane, Mr. Kennedy, Randy Orton, CM Punk, MVP and more will do everything in their power to overpower and outlast the competition.

This Wrestlemania is pretty good here. Triple h vs orton shouldn't have been the main event, but still good ppv. Thanks for reading and please rate!
Money in the bank-Christian vs. Finlay vs. CM Punk vs. Mark Henry vs. Shelton Benjamin vs. Kane vs. MVP vs. Kofi Kingston
This match is great and very fast paced. I didn't think that it was worthy of being the opener. Great spots in this match like Benjamin doing a dive off the ladder on to everyone, kofi getting world strongest slammed on a ladder, hornswoggle doing the tad pole splash on everyone, christian saving himself and the ladder, and a huge cokeslam off the ladder. The wrong man won though later cashing in his money in the bank and screwing Jeff Hardy. This match also includes a lot of highflying moments and ladder use.
4/5
25 diva battle royal/miss.wrestlemania title
no comment.
0/5
Chris Jericho vs. Jimmy Snuka, Rowdy Roddy Piper, Ricky Steamboat
This match is pretty good. It could have been better, but still good. I didn't like the stipulation to this match(elimination) Not very good with jericho winning. But great moment when jericho got punched by Mickey Rourke.
3.5/5
Jeff hardy vs. Matt Hardy-Extreme rules
Great match here. A good use of weapons in this mach like a, trash can, vacuum cleaner, tables, chairs, ladders, creches, Kendo sticks, and a wm 25 poster. What a moment when Jeff missed a leg drop off a 16 ft, also, if you look closely, you can see Jeff go through the ring some. Also, awesome moment when Jeff dived off the top rope and made Matt go through tables. A very sick ending.
4/5
JBL vs. Rey Mysterio-Intercontinental Championship
This match is a total waste and is just a filler. This match is only 21 seconds, and was dominated by JBL before the match was even started, and mysterio finally wins the intercontinental title. Great moment when JBLOSER quit. FINALLY!!!!! No more blubber.
2/5
Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels
I hope you can say the word classic because that is what this match is. This match is fast paced through the entire match and is never boring, and was like all their other matches, really good, except this was a classic. This match totally deserved to be the main event, but sadly wasn't. This match is defanatly match of the night and match of the year. I really liked the buildup for this and that these two had a very good rivalry going. Great moments when Shawn missed the moonsaulet, and when undertaker dived on a camera man. I loved that the streak continues to 17-0. Awesome moment when taker kicked out of the sweet chin music and michaels kicked out of the tombstone. Best moment in the match when taker countered the moonsaulet into the tombstone for the win. This match is very entertaining and is one of the best WWE and Wrestlemania matches ever. It is also the second longest Mania' match ever.
5/5
John Cena vs. Edge vs. Big Show-World Heavyweight Championship
Good match, but a little short for a triple threat, but still good. This match was surprisingly brutal with Cena pulling off the win with a attitude adjustment on big slow and edge. Also, great moment in the match when edge made big slow go through the barricade. Also, who can forget the super human effort by cena when he picked up slow and edge on his shoulders. Good triple threat here.
4/5
Triple H vs. Randy Orton-WWE Championship
I don't have much to say about this match it is so stupid. This match is almost watchable, but not very good. This is more like a brawl than a match and didn't deserve to be the main event. I like how hhh kicked orton in the skull and hit him with the sledge hammer when the ref was down and got the pedigree for the win to retain. The only good thing about this match was the orton goes too far and eliminates the McMahon factor buildup.
3.5/5
Good Wrestlemania here. I recommend getting this and adding it to your wwe collection.

WWE - The Ladder Match (2007) Review

WWE - The Ladder Match (2007)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
It's amazing how a simple concept for a match (climb up a ladder & grab the belt) has spawn so many memorable moments in the history of professional wrestling and WWE picked out a wonderful collection of matches here to illistrate how the ladder match has spawn off so many memorable to classic moments in wrestling & was also the catalist for so many versions of this match including TLC, Stairway To Hell in ECW, and King Of The Mountain in TNA.
North American Champion Jake Roberts vs. Big Daddy Ritter (Junkyard Dog) - This was joined in progress and it was using a one sided ladder with the referees holding it steady while the wrestlers climbed up. Nothing special past the historical factor.
Stampede Wrestling '79
Intercontinental Champion Bret Hart vs. Shawn Michaels - Eventhough many remember WrestleMania X to be the first Ladder Match, this was truely the first one. For this match being the first of it's kind in WWE at the time, it's really something to see with how the ladder was used at times along with the "X" factor of Sherri getting involved at times.
July '92
Intercontinental Champion Shawn Michaels vs. Razor Ramon - I'm glad they put this one on here instead of their WrestleMania X one since most people forgot about it. This match was completely different than their previous on in that they didn't use the ladder as a weapon while both men knew each other so well that they were able to avoid each other's signature moves throughout the match. This one won't disappoint and if you want an idea of how comical WWF was back in '95, watch the HBK intro when they have a guy trying to sell you his merchandise at ringside (ala Home Shopping Network).
SummerSlam '95
Intercontinental Champion The Rock vs. Triple H - Eventhough Undertaker/Austin was the main event, this was the match that stole the show. HHH was selling a knee injury that he got earlier in the night while the Rock was just ruthless here with both Chyna & Mark Henry getting involved here. This was the highlight match of both men's career before they would go on to each win the World Title.
SummerSlam '98
Edge & Christian vs. New Brood (Hardy Boyz) - This was the match that put both teams on the map that would eventually plant the seeds for the future series of ladder/TLC matches featuring various members. Since this was the first tag team ladder match, it was non-stop action & never a dull moment.
No Mercy '99
(Hardy Boys: Leap Of Faith, Edge: Decade Of Decadance)
TLC Match: WWE Tag Team Champions Edge & Christian vs. Dudley Boyz vs. Hardy Boyz - The first TLC match and this was the one that topped their WrestleMania match months earlier. Again, this is one of those matches that I can't describe in words that you just have to watch.
SummerSlam '00
(Allied Powers: World's Greatest Tag Teams)
Shannon Moore & Shane Helms vs. Jamie Noble & Evan Karagis vs. Kaz Hayashi & Jimmy Yang - If you only know these guys from their runs in WWE then you don't know what your missing. This match was the match of the night at that PPV as it was the crusierweight division that was saving the WCW product at that time. It wasn't as crazy as the TLC matches in WWE but these guys put on one hell of a performance.
WCW Starrcade '00
Intercontinental Champion Chris Benoit vs. Chris Jericho - They took from brutal bumps & the chairshot delievered when Benoit went though the ropes was "hardcore" to say the least & is a classic in quality.
Royal Rumble '01
TLC Match: WWE Tag Team Champions Dudley Boyz vs. Hardy Boyz vs. Edge & Christian - TLC II followed the same patterns as their pervious matches with the exception this time being the involvement of Lita, Rhyno, and Spike Dudley. This match has the highlight reel of Edge (off the top of the ladder) spearing Jeff Hardy (who was hanging from the belt hooks) all the way to the floor that WWE still uses in some promotional videos today.
WrestleMania X-7
(Hardy Boyz: Leap Of Faith)
TLC Match: WWE Tag Team Champions Chris Jericho & Chris Benoit vs. Dudley Boyz vs. Hardy Boyz vs. Edge & Christian - This match is known as the "forgotten TLC" for various reasons such as Edge not acknowling this match when he kept saying "I never lost a TLC match." Jericho & Benoit pulled off some spots not seen in the previous ones such as a headbutt off the top of a ladder though a table that led to his eventual neck surgery.
"SmackDown" May '01
Intercontinental Champion Christian vs. Edge - With both men having so much experience in a ladder match with each other, this match certainly had it's moments when they went against each other. The ladder here was used as a weapon various times along with making a regular move more impactful. This had it's various moments like Christian getting crotched & later being snapped off the top rope onto the ladder, both falling off the ladder onto the floor, and Edge getting his reciepts on all the acts Christian did to him over the past two months.
No Mercy '01
Intercontinental Champion Eddie Guerrero vs. Rob Van Dam - This match had a style of both of them using the ladder to make their normal moves more high impactful with Eddie heavily dominating while constantly targeting RVD's face. These was very intense and was without a doubt one of the best matches on WWE TV for that year.
"RAW" May '02
(Eddie Guerrero: Cheating Death, Stealing Life)
WWE Undisputed Champion Undertaker vs. Jeff Hardy - The story behind this match was Undertaker just delivering a beating to Jeff Hardy who just refused to quit & give up...to the point where Taker just had to do what he had to do after the match.
"RAW" July '02
TLC Match: World Tag Team Champion Kane vs. Rob Van Dam & Jeff Hardy vs. Bubba & Spike Dudley vs. Chris Jericho & Christian - They advertise Hurricane for this match but he wasn't in it. High spots all over the place along with high impact moves to the point to where Bubba Ray suffered such a concussion that he doesn't remember the match to this day.
"RAW" Oct. '02
(RAW: 10th Anniversary DVD)
Intercontinental Championship Match: Chris Jericho vs. Christian - These two were feuding with each other for months over Trish Stratus but after going through regular matches, handicap matches, and cage matches (where Christian injured his back & was out of action for months) they settled their score in a ladder match for the Intercontinental Championship after Edge had to forfit the title due to injury. This match was more about trying to tell a story throughout the match instead of doing a bunch of "highspots" & turned out to be a great match.
Unforgiven '04
Money In The Bank Ladder Match: Chris Jericho vs. Chris Benoit vs. Shelton Benjamin Kane vs. Edge vs. Christian - I was here LIVE & to quote Joey Styles "OH MY GOD!" The showstealer here though was Shelton Benjamin as he looked like Spiderman with the majority of the moves he was pulling off involving the ladders. As a side note, watch Kane's intro because that was something to see with the ladders on fire.
WrestleMania 21
Rey Mysterio vs. Eddie Guerrero - It was a great ladder match eventhough the storyline got stupid with the whole "Dominic is my son" thing going on (well, it did result in the "I'm Your Papi" shirt so I guess it's not all bad). Lots of interference from Vicki Guerrero & Dominic himself but it didn't ruin the match itself.
SummerSlam '05
Loser Leaves RAW Match: Matt Hardy vs. Edge - The final encounter between these two in this very personal feud against each other and as you expected, this was a fight with weapons like a table also getting involved here while Lita played a big role in this match from beginning to end. This doesn't live up to the previous ladder matches these two have had but it was still good. "RAW" Oct. '05
TLC Match: WWE Champion Edge vs. Ric Flair - At this stage in Flair's career, this was a completely new enviroment for him as this was his very first ladder match with his daughter at ringside. This match was more about "how can Flair take this punishment as his age" than anything else as Edge targeted Flair's head after he suffered the concussion the week before resulting in his entire face being the classic "crimson mask". Flair gave out the much punishment here as well as he recieved it & this was a very impressive performance from Ric Flair in this being his first time doing this type of match.
"RAW" Jan. '06
WWE Champion Edge vs. John Cena - Cena was of course booed out the building due to the fact they were in Edge's hometown but that's when Cena is at his best (remember One Night Stand). Again, both men brought their A game & resulted in a great main event with plenty of highlight moments including the final "F-U" to Edge towards the end.
Unforgiven '06
(John Cena: My Life)
Intercontinental Champion Johnny Nitro vs. Jeff Hardy - This was the match for me that put Nitro on the map as a "superstar of the future" as he was able to hold his own & surpass the previous RAW ladder matches with the ladder match veteran in Jeff Hardy. This was just another match in their great series of matches but look out for the swanton on the ladder by Jeff Hardy.
"RAW" Nov. '06
WWE Tag Team Champions Paul London & Brian Kendrick vs. William Regal & Dave Taylor vs. MNM vs. The Hardys - We all know what the Hardys & MNM can do based on their past so mix that with the daredevil style London & Kendrick adapted along with the fact that Regal & Taylor didn't look out of place with their mat wrestling style as well. And watch out for that SICK spot where Joey Mercury's face gets crushed...Read more›

It Might Get Loud (2008) Review

It Might Get Loud (2008)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Caught this film yesterday and all I can say is wow. If you like music, guitars or any combination of the two catch this one on the big screen. Then you can easily decide if you need to add this dvd to your music archives. The progression of stories and how they are told is excellent, as well as the music presented. [...]
I came here yesterday after getting home from the matinee to see if there might be a "soundtrack" available to accompany this movie. There's probably enough material here (Link Wray, Son House etc.) to make a sweet multi-disc collection. It may seem like an odd combination of guitar players, but all three are well represented and there are too many highlights to mention. Seeing these guys playing bottleneck slide guitar together on "In My Time Of Dying" is worth the price of admission by itself. Seeing this film was a joyful experience for me and my heart does a little happy dance just thinking about it.
