06. Hogans Versus City Hall
The Hogan family is at war with the town of Bellaire, Florida over the number of pets they have. The onetime menagerie of more than a dozen has been whittled down to five animals plus a permitted rooster after their next-door neighbor complained to the town. But Bellaire officials are playing hardball: They send the Hogans a letter saying the family is in violation of the town code, and a hearing is scheduled. After another heated confrontation between Linda and the neighbor's gardener, they go to the hearing. Will the Hogans have to give up their precious pets? Or will the family stand strong on principle?
07. Hulk's Hobbies
After 25 years on the road wrestling, Hulk has always had an outlet for his energy and aggression by body-slamming people nightly.

HOGAN KNOW`S BEST Season 2
The Hogan family returns to VH1 for a second season chronicling their family adventures. Part time wrestler, full time stage dad, Hulk Hogan is still trying to help daughter Brooke get a record label contract and finish her album. But offstage, Brooke's pushing hard for more independence - she feels stifled by Hulk's overprotective nature and meddling in her personal life and has threatened to move out of the house once she turns 18.

But Hulk and wife Linda would prefer to see their son enjoy childhood a bit longer.
This season will follow the ups and downs of Brooke's career, her fight for independence as well as her first relationship with a boy.

08. Brooke Breaks Away
Fed up with the craziness of the household and her family's constant interference in every aspect of her life, Brooke pleads to go on a trip to LA or Miami. Instead, she is allowed to spend the weekend with a friend at the nearby family beach house while Hulk and Linda promise to respect her privacy. But Hulk's overprotective gene acts up immediately and he begins spying on her every move. When he finds something he's not supposed to, family tensions erupt.

Hulk and Linda fret about Brooke's disappearance and the fraying family ties. Hulk will do anything to bring the family back together, even if it means going to a drag show!
11. Nick Gets The Bug
Nick has always admired his Dad's career in the wrestling ring. While at a professional match, Nick gets a first hand lesson from some world class wrestlers and asks Hulk if he can get into the family business. After Dad shows him the tricks of the trade, Nick gets the bug and pushes Dad to set up a real match. Linda and Hulk fear what might happen to a 15 year old in the ring.

Nick, now interested in an acting career, plays a leading villain. Linda is a sexy secretary and Brooke performs a song at a high school dance. They're all in the limelight, but things aren't perfect on the set. Brooke attracts the attention of an older man and choreographs a risque dance routine. So Hulk needs to spend more time watching over her than working on his own lines.
13. Anniversary Surprise
Hulk and Linda are celebrating 22 years of marriage and Linda wants to mark the occasion by taking ballroom dancing lessons. Hulk reluctantly agrees but walks out on Linda when she jokingly insults his technique. He becomes even more incensed when she continues to go to class without him. Can the children reconcile the couple before the big anniversary date?
14. The Hogan Boyfriend Test
Brooke is practicing her songs for a big showcase at a Miami nightclub and she asks Jerry, a fellow touring musician, to come to Florida to help her prepare.

So he decides to put Jerry through various tests of manhood to see if he's Hogan material.
15. Twilight of a God
Hulk's wrestling career is winding down and it takes more than ever to stay on top, including nerve injections to reduce pain in his back and laser treatments to keep a youthful look. After a particular bloody match, the family begs Hulk to find a new way to make a living. Hulk decides to try the corporate route, doing commercials, endorsing energy drinks and creating a new product where he can finally make peace with a lost opportunity from his past.
16. Rent-a-Guru
Linda's feeling lethargic and overweight and thinks she needs advice beyond Hulk's "train hard, say your prayers and eat your vitamins." She hires a new age guru to visit the house and give all the Hogans a healthy lifestyle makeover. The guru tries to replace all the items in the Hogan refrigerator and helps cleanse the property of "hungry ghosts." But when the guru suggests colonics for everyone, Hulk decides he's had enough and schemes with the rest of the family to break free of the guru's hold.

WWE Divas Undressed (2002) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For those of us tired of the current senseless trend by the wwe of imposing no talent models upon the fans, this will be your most treasured diva dvd.
You will see real divas like Ivory and Teri in fantastically skimpy lingerie. Let's face it , the wwe will probably never again have the "testicular fortitude" to make this kind of dvd again. For those true fans of true divas, I recommend buying it before it goes out of print.

WWE: Summerslam: The Complete Anthology (2008) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)*****Nov. 2008 - I just want to go on record and say that I think SUMMERSLAM 2008 is a great PPV. I have a more detailed review somewhere in my Profile, if you'd like to read it. My ANTHOLOGY review is below. *****I'm gonna give you two reviews for the price of one:
* SUMMERSLAM ANTHOLOGY REVIEW
* AN EXTRA TWO CENTS ON WWE DVD SETS
[Better sit back. This is gonna take me a while. Hope you like!]
SUMMMERSLAM ANTHOLOGY REVIEW
---I'd wager that most haven't seen the first few SUMMERSLAM PPVs. While they're not very memorable, they're still worth a look. For example, from the first SUMMERSLAM back in 1988, everyone knows how Ultimate Warrior squashed Intercontinental champion Honky Tonk Man in 30 seconds. But hopefully, newcomers will be more awed by the excellent Tag Team Titles Match between The Hart Foundation and Demolition. Plus, the main event between "Mega Powers" Hulk Hogan & Randy Savage against Ted Dibiase's "Mega Bucks" team is an entertaining star-power showcase. 1988 was a solid event, and definitely warranted a follow-up the next year.
Sadly, I think 1989 is best remembered for its outstanding opener and for its cheap finale. The Hart Foundation against The Brain Busters (Tully Blanchard & Arn Anderson) is a classic that Tag Team fans will love. But I always thought that the main event (Hulk Hogan & Brutus Beefcake against Zeus & Randy Savage) felt like an expensive plug for the movie 'No Holds Barred'. Besides, it wasn't an entertaining match.
Ultimate Warrior and Rick Rude have a solid Steel Cage Match for the WWF Title for 1990's SUMMERSLAM, and Hulk Hogan against Earthquake ain't too bad of a co-main event, either. But Demolition and Hart Foundation once again stole the show with another Tag Team Titles masterpiece. Man, tag action was the real deal back then.
Bret Hart and "Mr. Perfect" Curt Hennig were never boring to watch. But in August 1991, their technical classic was one of their best ever. If Hitman wasn't yet a superstar, then August 1991 was his biggest push. His IC Title victory got people almost as excited as the main event: a 3-on-2 Handicap Match with Sgt. Slaughter's "Iraqi" team against Hulk Hogan and Ultimate Warrior. Although Warrior's alleged backstage powerplay might cast a dark cloud over things, the match is quite entertaining in its own right. Oh, and I don't care what anyone else says...that Savage/Elizabeth wedding is touching...even if it was a few years late.
Big props to the World Wrestling Federation for letting Bret Hart and British Bulldog close the 1992 show with their IC Title masterpiece. Wembley Arena wanted to see this once more than any other on the card, and Hitman has always called this match his favorite. But another highlight you'll want to see is Randy Savage defend the WWF Title against Ultimate Warrior, a showdown I consider to be better than their 1991 Retirement Match. The storyline involving Mr. Perfect and Ric Flair is quite bizarre, but overall, it's good stuff. Also bizarre is some "no-face-hitting" encounter between Shawn Michaels and Rick "The Model" Martel. Don't ask...
So far, SUMMERSLAM has been an exceptional PPV series. But 1993's was probably their least successful at the time. There is some good stuff to watch, still. Mr. Perfect and Shawn Michaels delivered an outstanding IC Title Match. Bret Hart's grudge match against "Burger King" Jerry Lawler was hilariously delayed, as Hitman had to face Doink The Clown before he could get his hands on Lawler. Sean "1-2-3 Kid" Waltman's PPV debut against IRS is an admirable showing, as is Razor Ramon's opener against Ted Dibiase. Where most will disagree with me is on the Taker/Gonzales and Luger/Yokozuna matches. Even with his poor outfit and in-ring ability, I was never bored with Giant Gonzales when he faced Undertaker. And although I agree that Lex Luger never achieved the "American Hero" status WWF wanted, everyone got behind Luger during this summer. I think we all wanted to see Yokozuna dethroned of the title; at the time, Luger was the man for the job. This was a decent PPV amidst a subpar year for the WWF.
1994's presentation in the United Centre (my hometown of Chicago) was an excellent card, but also included two ridiculous scenarios. The first dumb thing is the Taker-vs-Taker main event. As Mark Calaway once said, "On paper, I thought it was a good idea, but we didn't get the mileage we wanted." The other problem is that Leslie Nielsen and George Kennedy bumble around trying to solve the mystery of The Undertaker......huh? This must've been a 'Naked Gun 33 1/3' promotion; I can't decide if I want WWE to edit this out or not. But the 1994 event features the priceless Bret/Owen Steel Cage Match; those two could steal the show by just looking at each other. Their rivalry remains a pinnacle among wrestling feuds. I also really enjoyed Razor Ramon challenging IC champion Diesel for his title, with HBK at ringside. A great PPV with a little WWF family-friendly garbage.
You only need to watch 1995's SUMMERSLAM for the HBK/Razor Ladder Match. Other than that, you can just break this disc into pieces to sell as knockoff jewelry. It's that bad.
1996 features a very good HBK/Vader main event, and a pretty solid undercard. What might hold this one back is the Boiler Room Brawl between Undertaker and Mankind. While this remains an awesome rivalry, the action hasn't aged well. At the time, these 30 minutes of violence were off the charts by WWF's standards. But now, the overall atmosphere and shocking finish are the best highlights. Still, 1996 warrants a peek.
The very first live PPV I purchased was 1997's SUMMERSLAM, in which the new Hart Foundation had a stipulation for each of their matches. Brian Pillman is still a frightening individual, which helps keep his gold-dress angle against Goldust entertaining. The British Bulldog's dog-food-eating angle with Ken Shamrock wasn't too bad, nor was the match itself. However, the last two matches are the real reason to watch. Sadly, this was the night that Owen Hart accidentally broke Stone Cold Steve Austin's neck via piledriver. However, it's still a very good contest with a sad finish. As for the main event, I'm not the biggest fan of Bret Hart and Undertaker's matches together, but this is an exception. Perhaps it was having Shawn Michaels as guest referee. I dunno, but out of all of the Taker/Hart encounters, this was easily my favorite. Oh, I almost forgot about the HHH/Mankind Steel Cage opener...in a word, awesome! One more thing, I hope that WWE doesn't cut the cash-giveaway-sweepstakes that happened in the middle...it was corny and funny as hell.
We kick off the Attitude Era of the package with 1998's edition. I was never a fan of the Attitude Era, but for this one, I really enjoyed myself. While The Rock and Triple H stole the show with their IC Title Ladder Match, everyone can look forward to the best Undertaker/Austin encounter in history. Those two men must've had to bust their tails when they had to follow the Ladder Match; they succeeded and then some. Throw in an X-Pac/Jarrett Hair-vs-Hair Match and a good opener between Val Venis and D'Lo Brown, and 1998 is a year you can look forward to.
You can also get revved up to watch 1999's SUMMERSLAM. Jesse Ventura officiates the Mankind/HHH/Austin main event with no particular set of rules. If he doesn't like what he sees, "The Body" makes the wrestler win under fairer methods. Also on this card is the Greenwich Street Fight between Test and Shane McMahon, where Stephanie McMahon's relationship with Test is in jeopardy. That's right: The Billion Dollar Princess was romantically tied to someone on TV before Paul Levesque entered the picture. Basically, Shane-O-Mac never had a better match until facing Kurt Angle in a Street Fight a couple years later. One more compliment to the PPV: Doesn't Undertaker & Big Show against Kane & X-Pac sound like a terrible match? Trust me, it's a most enjoyable showdown. The card gets rough during the 0:30-1:30 time period, but it's still a very good event.
2000's card is also pretty solid. It includes the first triangle TLC Match (my all-time favorite Ladder Match). Also included is a kicking 2-out-of-3 Falls showcase between Chris Jericho and Chris Benoit. And the Angle/HHH/Rock main event, while mostly a one-on-one affair, is still entertaining. There are a few stinkers (like the repetitive and pointless Undertaker/Kane slugfest). But overall, I like this one.
The 2001 SUMMERSLAM featured the second PPV showdown between the WCW/ECW Alliance and the WWF. The "Invasion" angle has its critics, but the talent was rarely stronger, making this PPV one of the anthology's best. You get to see Edge's first singles title victory, The Rock's first WCW Title victory, Jeff Hardy and RVD in a Ladder Match...do I really need to go on? Well, I'll also let you get excited to watch Kurt Angle and Steve Austin just tear the house down. Angle (to my knowledge) has never received a stronger crowd reaction. Just watch the PPV; you won't regret it.
My favorite SUMMERSLAM of all time is easily the 2002 presentation from Long Island, NY. Kurt Angle and Rey Mysterio almost steal the show with their fast-paced opener. But even better is Shawn Michaels' return to the WWE, as he faces Triple H in a classic Street Fight. Nobody thought HBK could still deliver a match this great, let alone just survive without killing his body. However, my strongest praise goes to Brock Lesnar and The Rock for their stellar main event. They put in a lot of hype and build-up going in, and the two men delivered the blockbuster we expected. The crowd went nuts for this, and I...Read more›

The Self Destruction of the Ultimate Warrior (2005) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)First things first, I am was and still am a HUGE Ultimate Warrior fan. I got back into wrestling from 1997-2002 (I still watch it here and there but no longer consider myself a fan any more) and cheered for wrestlers like The Rock before he was big all the way up until he left (probably the single biggest reason why I lost interest in WWE again). Before that time I was a WWF fan from 1987-1993 and I absolutely loved the Ultimate Warrior. Bar none, he is my favorite wrestler of all time, as short a moment in time as it was.
I state this to make it known that I was extremely excited when I heard that WWE was releasing an Ultimate Warrior DVD, scouring the Internet for news on a daily basis to learn more about what was being released regarding my favorite wrestler of all time. I knew that this was not going to be any love-fest by the WWE brain trust, but I didn't care. Just the ability to see the warrior in the DVD format and have others talk about the individual that made moments of my sometimes crappy childhood filled with joy... it took me back to happy moments that you cannot easily feel again.
After having rushed out to pick up "The Self Destruction Of The Ultimate Warrior" and watched the 1.5 hour special about his career in the ring, I find that it was a very FAIR assessment of Warrior's wrestling legacy. Other Ultimate Warrior fans have written online that this DVD badmouths the former Mr. Hellwig and puts him in a light that isn't completely accurate. In a situation of "he said she said" usually the truth lies somewhere in between so I am sure that this DVD isn't 100% accurate, but my overall impression of this disc is that it is very FAIR (and again, I remind you that I was about as a big a fan as there is of The Ultimate Warrior).
Starting off with the origins of the Ultimate Warrior from Rock to Dingo Warrior to Ultimate Warrior, this DVD speaks of UW's quick rise from a house show wrestler to beating the Honky Tonk Man in 30 seconds at SummerSlam 1988 in Madison Square Garden. Following Warrior's rise in popularity, the UW does the unthinkable on April 1, 1990 in Toronto, Canada at WrestleMania VI as he CLEANLY beats Hulk Hogan in the middle of the ring in what is the penultimate moment of my wrestling fan "career". From this point on we learn how the Warrior defended that very title as best as he could (and I truly believe the Warrior did the best he could do), until he eventually lost it to Sgt. Slaughter and arguably then had the best match of his career with Randy Savage at WrestleMania VII. The Ultimate Warrior's 1st run with the WWF came to an end in 1991 when (as the WWF and Vince claim - Warrior himself says this isn't true) during the SummerSlam PPV Warrior demanded more money or he wouldn't perform. After a 7 month hiatus we see The Ultimate Warrior make his incredibly shocking return at the end of WM VIII to begin his 2nd run with the WWF which would only last a mere 8 months or so. Warrior's last 2 runs at wrestling for major promotions are covered in his 4 month 1996 WWF run and his 3 month 1998 WCW run (he hasn't wrestled in a big promotion since that time).
Throughout the history of UW's wrestling career we get comments from Vince McMahon, Eric Bischoff, Ted Dibiase, Bobby Heenan, Gene Okerlund, Jim Ross, Hulk Hogan, Bruce Pritchard, Jerry Lawler, Christian, Chris Jericho, Ric Flair and many others. To say that these fellow wrestlers put Warrior in a bad light is like saying that rotten eggs smell bad. It's quite evident that Jim (most of these guys refuse to call him Warrior unless it's with their eyes in the back of their heads) wasn't very popular in the back room, and never will be.
But as I have said numerous times in this review, IT'S FAIR.
You generally get the impression when someone is lying, and it's pretty evident that everyone on this DVD is speaking from their hearts. They truly believe what they are telling the camera about the Ultimate Warrior and it is highly entertaining to say the least.
As an individual that prides themselves on knowing as much as possible about The Ultimate Warrior, I learned new things about the man from Parts Unknown, more so than anything else, how little he was respected in the back room by "the boys". As much as wrestling is for the fans, when it comes to the end of the day, the most important thing is how you interact with your little wrestling family in the back room. The fans you see maybe 20 minutes a night, your fellow wrestlers the entire rest of the day. It's a shame that as loved as the Warrior was from 1989-1991, he was so disliked by everyone else.
If you read any of Warrior's posts on his web site (ultimatewarrior.com) he'll tell you over and over again how much he can't stand the WWF and that they are liars, but when you have so many people saying 1 thing and 1 other person saying another, you can't help but think that maybe the problem isn't everyone else. Mr. Hellwig (sorry, WARRIOR) would have you believe that Vince has "brainwashed" his entire stable, but after watching this DVD you will probably feel otherwise.
My only complaint is that as good as 1.5 hour feature is, this collection could have been even more. It's quite clear that no "double dipping" will be done for another Ultimate Warrior DVD, so why not have matches on here like Warrior/Slaughter from Royal Rumble 1991, the complete Super Posedown from RR1989 with Rick Rude, more interview segments like when he gets hits by Honky Tonk in summer 1988, Rude at WMV, Hercules at WMIV, the whole Jake feud in 1991 and so forth? There are a handful of matches on here including the 2 big ones with Hogan at WMVI (sadly Jesse Ventura's commentary had to be cut out) and Savage at WMVII, but this set of choices feels lacking.
Overall, a very entertaining DVD that any Warrior fan should take a look at, and any wrestling fan that wants to learn more about the Ultimate Warrior shouldn't ignore (especially if you are ignorant of the story of Warrior).
**** HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

WWE - Hollywood Hulk Hogan - Hulk Still Rules (2002) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)"Hulk Still Rules" is a fairly comprehensive look at the career of wrestling icon Hulk Hogan. The feature proper is an hour rundown of his career. This two disc set also contains almost four hours of bonus material including some of his most significant matches as well as classic promos and skits from WWF programming. In all, it's probably THE BEST video put out by WWE ever and is surely a must-have in any wrestling fan's collection.
THE FEATURE:
The main feature is a "cliff notes" version of Hogan's wrestling career. Among other things it chronicles how he broke into the business in the Florida independent circuit through the Brisco Brothers and how he initially entered the WWWF as a heel with Freddie Blassie. From there it follows his career through the AWA, his phenomenal and history making second run in the 80's WWF including his feuds with Piper, Bundy, Orndorff, Andre and Savage to his second history making stint in WCW with the N W O to his recent return to the WWE. In all, a lot of ground is covered and a lot of it is incomplete (no mentions of his feud with the Ultimate Warrior, Lex Luger or Sting) but it hits most of the major highlights.
THE EXTRAS:
If you like extras, this DVD BRINGS the extras like no other. By far, this is THE most loaded wrestling DVD ever put out as it takes two discs to hold all the extras. The extras are a mixed bag of classic (and non-classic matches), miscellaneous skits and some classic Hulk promos. In all, some of it's great, some of it's not great but it's definitely stacked. Here they are:
Disc 1:
1.Hogan's debut WWWF match against (a non-Million Dollar Man) Ted DiBiase at MSG on 12/17/79. Kinda weird seeing Hogan as a mega-heel and DiBiase as a clean babyface. Decent match.
2."Heel" Hogan vs. Andre the Giant at Shea Stadium, 8/9/80: 7 years before their historic showdown.
3.Bob Backlund vs. the Wild Samoans (Afa and Sika), 12/83: Hogan's WWF return from the AWA as he helps Mr. Backlund. Post-match promo from both afterward.
4.Hogan vs. the Iron Sheik, 1/23/84: Witness the birth of Hulkamania as Hogan captures his first WWF title. Post-match promo by Hogan with Mean Gene (and the locker room).
5."Mean Gene" training vignettes from Tuesday Night Titans. Funny and cute stuff.
6.Hogan vs. Mr. Wonderful, The Big Event in Toronto, 8/28/86: Awesome, big money match.
7.Hogan vs. Andre, Wrestlemania III, 3/29/87. The match itself wasn't much, but this was THE biggest match in the history of the sport.
8.Tuesday Night Titans vignette as Hogan teaches McMahon and Lord Alfred Hayes about nutrition.
9.Hogan and Brutus "the Barber" Beefcake w/Elizabeth vs. Zeus and "Macho Man" Randy Savage, Summer Slam '89. Another classic!!
10.Easter Egg: Title 1, Chapter 10. "Real American" music video. Cool and funny at the same time.
Disc 2
1.Hogan vs. 2 jobbers, All-Star Wrestling match, 1/2/80: Token jobber squash match.
2.Hogan vs. "Nature Boy" Ric Flair, Bash at the Beach '94: The historic first MAJOR big meeting between the two 80's legends. One of the best Hogan matches as Flair carries Hogan to a good match. The one lone WCW match on here.
3.Another Tuesday Night Titans skit
4.Interview with Mean Gene that leads into...
5.Hogan and "Mean Gene" Okerlund vs. George "the Animal" Steele and Mr. Fuji. Fun match
6.Hogan vs. Undertaker (champ), This Tuesday in Texas, 12/3/91: Hogan's rematch for the belt.
7.Hogan vs. Big John Studd from Puerto Rico in the rain.
8.Hogan vs. Nikolai Volkoff from Saturday Night's Main Event, 10/5/85.
9.Hogan vs. Mr. Perfect (w/ The Genius) from SNME, 4/28/90
10.Hogan and Andre vs. Big John Studd and King Kong Bundy from SNME: Classic WWF style big man collision
11.Hogan vs. Piper, WrestleVision, 11/7/85: Another classic feud.
12.Royal Rumble '90: Joined in progress as Hogan enters featuring his confrontation against the Warrior.
13.Survivor Series '88. Team Mega-Powers (Hogan, Savage, Hercules, Hillbilly Jim and Koko B. Ware) vs. Team Mega-Bucks (DiBiase, Bossman, Akeem, Haku, Red Rooster). Great Survivor Series action!!
14.Classic Hogan promos: 1) King Harley Race, 2) The Genius, 3) Big Bossman, 4) The Honky Tonk Man, 5) "Cardboard" Rock
15.Easter Egg: Title 1, Chapter19, Mean Gene sings "Tutti Frutti" with Hogan on Bass from TNT.
THE VERDICT:
Overall, this is by default a thumbs up as this collect some of the best matches, promos and skits and reviews the career of wrestling's biggest star. This collection though is by no means perfect. A lot of ground is missing and a lot of Hogan's biggest matches are not (and in my opinion should have been) included. Some other things they could have put in are:
1.Hogan vs. Ultimate Warrior from Wrestlemania
2.Hogan vs. Savage from Wrestlemania
3.Hogan vs. Sting from Starcade
4.Hogan vs. Goldberg from Nitro
5.Hogan and Rodman vs. DDP and Malone
6.Hogan and Bischoff vs. DDP and Leno
There are more but as is the DVD is stacked great as is but they definitely could have done more. Also, the feature itself while well done is just too short at an hour. A lot of ground is left out (like his feud with the Warriors and his WCW activities)..In all though, as is, the DVD is well done and the extras are more than enough to make any wrestling fan (Hulkamaniac or not) happy.

WWE Tombstone - History of the Undertaker (2005) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Tombstone: The History Of The Undertaker tells a roughly 6 hour story about this WWE Superstar's rise to main event status from 1991 until 2004. Aside from the bad packaging, I was very pleased with this DVD. Now, here is what you'll find on here:
Disc 1
Undertaker Vs. Hulk Hogan (WWE Championship) - The Undertaker wins his first WWE title after being in the organization for only a year! Guest appearance from "Nature Boy" Ric Flair.
Undertaker Vs. Yokozuna (RIP)(WWE Championship Casket Match) - This ends up being more of a gang mugging as several WWE stars help out Yoko! Still significant as it shows the fighting spirit of UT in a losing effort.
Undertaker Vs. Diesel - This was from WrestleMania 12 and one of Kevin Nash's better bouts!
Undertaker Vs. Mankind (Buried Alive Match) - Foley, as usual, takes a beating from UT! UT wins the match but ends up getting buried alive by Mankind, The Executioner (Terry Gordy in a mask/RIP) and several other heels!
Undertaker Vs. Mankind (WWE Championship Match) - Undertaker had just won his second WWE title a month earlier. Foley takes another beating including a head first dive into a table!
Undertaker Vs. Bret Hart (WWE Championship Match) - "HBK" Shawn Michaels is the special referee in this one as this was otherwise a classic bout! Guest appearances from Paul Bearer, Owen Hart (RIP) and Brian Pillman (RIP). The ending leads up to the brief but brutal Michales/Undertaker feud!
BONUS MATCH: Undertaker Vs. Bret Hart from One Night Only in England! Awesome bout! Perhaps better than their Summerslam encounter.
EXTRAS ON DISC 1
Undertaker attacks Hogan in the Funeral Parlor
Undertaker builds a casket for Yokozuna
Undertaker talks about Diesel in the graveyard
Undertaker talks about Mankind in the graveyard
Undertaker interrupts Mankind's interview
DISC 2
Undertaker Vs. Shawn Michaels (In Your House: Ground Zero) - This was the first bout and it is a wild affair with guest stars HHH and Chyna!
Undertaker Vs. Shawn Michaels (Hell In The Cell) - The first ever Hell In The Cell! Set the bar for future HITC bouts!
Undertaker Vs. Kane (WrestleMania 14) - This bout was the first ever meeting between these two and probably the best between these two!
Undertaker Vs. Kane (Inferno Match) - Not a great bout BUT does have an awesome dive by 'Taker over the fire onto Kane and Vader!
Undertaker Vs. Mankind (Hell In The Cell) - The worst beating of Mick Foley's life. People can talk about HHH ending Foley's career in this same type of match but, in my eyes, it was UT that shortened Foley's career as the beating he gave Mick was far worse than what HHH did to him!
Undertaker Vs. The Rock (WWE Championship Match) - Very entertaining in that The Rock is his usual defiant self against UT! Guest appearance from HHH in this one!
EXTRAS ON DISC 2
Undetaker interview right after SummerSlam '97 concerning Shawn Michaels
Undertaker talking to her parents' tombstones
Undertaker interview where Kane burns their parents' tombstones
Undertaker breaks into Paul Bearer's house and mauls him!
DISC 3
Undertaker Vs. "Stone Cold" Steve Austin (WWE Championship/First Blood Match) - Your basic brawl! Interference from HHH, The Rock, Shane McMahon and Vince McMahon.
Undertaker Vs. HHH (WrestleMania X-7) - Probably one of the best WM bouts ever!
Undertaker Vs. Hulk Hogan (WWE Championship Match) - This is a rematch 12 years later for the same championship!
Undertaker Vs. Brock Lesner (WWE Championship Match/Hell In The Cell) - One of the top 5 HITC bouts ever! Taker bleeds like a stuck pig! Not for the squemish!
Undertaker Vs. John Cena - Interesting to see John in heel mode here! Actually does a good job staying with 'Taker.
Undertaker Vs. Mr. McMahon (Buried Alive Match) - Not much of a bout but McMahon takes a HUGE A** WHIPPIN' HERE! 'Taker loses when Kane interferes.
Undertaker Vs. Kane (WrestleMania 20) - Nowhere near as good as their original encounter BUT the entrances make it worth viewing.
EXTRAS ON DISC 3
Undertaker talks about HHH
Undertaker promo on Hulk Hogan
Undertaker talks about Hell In The Cell
Undertaker in the graveyard promo on Mr. McMahon
BONUS MATCH: Undertaker Vs. Kurt Angle from Smackdown in 2003!
This a good set even if the packaging was not up to par! I would also recommend getting Undertaker: This Is My Yard as well as it goes more into UT's career BEFORE WWE! Between those two DVD's, you'll have his whole career up until 2004! Recommended set!

From 1985 through 1992, WWE fans turned to NBC (and then Fox) for some of the biggest matches of the year. While WWE's syndicated programming displayed WWE Superstars easily dispatching overmatched opponents, fans had to turn to PPV events for the settling of major scores - until SNME. For the first time since the 1950s, professional wresting returned to network television and scored huge ratings.

The Monday Night War - WWE Raw vs. WCW Nitro Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)While I don't really pay attention to wrestling like I did in the past, I started getting into WWE (back then known as the WWF) right when the Monday Night Wars were at their most intense peak. This was when Stone Cold was the most popular WWE superstar and his rivalry with Vince McMahon was getting out of control each week. This was also when The Rock was a heel that quickly grew on you, as the crowd would always repeat all of his sayings when he'd try to talk. Bash the crowd, he would, but that wouldn't stop the crowd from "singing along" with him. I admit that I didn't really pay attention to the WCW, but I knew of the battle between the two corporations.
"The Monday Night War" finally reveals to you the complete (or as complete as it's going to get) story about the rivalry between the two giants, the WWE and the WCW. Here, you get all of the dirt and the low-down tricks that were implemented by each group. In one corner there's Vince McMahon, who takes his Monday night programming to new and subtle heights. In the other corner is Eric Bishoff, who manages Ted Turner's WCW company. Determined to bring new blood and a new flavor to the game, Bishoff takes it up a notch by offering unpredictable wrestling programming that would endanger Vince's empire. The changes would force Vince to change the face of wrestling entertainment as we now know it. The fight between the two was brutal, vicious, and threatened the careers of hundreds upon hundreds of wrestlers on both sides.
This DVD was really interesting to watch, as I had no idea how close the WWE was to going out of business, and I had no idea of the impact that Bischoff had on the WWE. Now that the two corporations are joined into one, both are able to reveal their stories and candid commentary without restraint. You hear comments from McMahon, Bishoff, wrestlers, and other former employees of the two giants. The program proves to be very honest and straight to business. And, as intense as the battle was between the two, no matter how vicious or brutal it was, it definitely had a positive impact on Vince's corporation. In a way, I wished the two were still going at it today as opposed to being all lumped into one organization. If that were the case, maybe I'd still be intrigued to watch today.
The DVD has some cool things to offer, other than the original program that runs about over an hour and a half. Extras include about 86 minutes of bonus footage that includes matches, events, and other benchmarks that intensified that Monday Night Wars between the two organizations. It would've been cool to have some more extra footage, as there were TONS of things that could be included in the wars between the two giants, but 3 hours of programming isn't too shabby.
"The Monday Night War" is a thought-provoking and energized look into the wrestling industry like never before. Learn about the betrayals, the back stabbings, the fear of losing jobs, and much more on this very entertaining DVD. Former and recent wrestling fans will want to include this in their collection. A great feature that isn't a waste of time by any means. -Michael Crane

WWE - The History of the WWE Championship (2006) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you notice most of these matches have already been placed on, "Best Of" DVDs, hell.... I already have ALL of the third disk matches on different DVDs that I collected over the years! For me I am spliiting the collection with a friend of mine and am keeping the older matches while he gets the newer ones [new fan]
However if you are a new fan of wrestling, or who doesn't mind buying matches you already own [like me] this is still a strongly recommended DVD collection
Heres the list of matches:
DISK 1
Ivan Koloff vs. Pedro Morales
Bruno Sammartino vs. Killer Kowalski
Bruno Sammartino vs. "Superstar" Billy Graham
"Superstar" Billy Graham vs. Bob Backlund
Bob Backlund vs. Greg Valentine
Bob Backlund vs. Sgt. Slaughter
Iron Sheik vs. Hulk Hogan
Steel Cage Match
Hulk Hogan vs. King Kong Bundy
Steel Cage Match
Hulk Hogan vs. "Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff
Hulk Hogan vs. Andre the Giant [Wrestlemania 3]
Hulk Hogan vs. Andre the Giant
Randy "Macho Man" Savage vs. Hulk Hogan
DISK 2
Wrestlemania
Hulk Hogan vs. The Ultimate Warrior [Champion vs. Champion]
Summerslam 94
Steel Cage Match
Owen Hart vs. Bret Hart [One of the best steel cage matches ever! After the match all of Bret and Owen's family members try to climb the cage to stop Owen from beating up Bret, its pretty crazy.]
Wrestlemania 12
Iron Man Match
Bret Hart vs. Shawn Michales [Great match but which longtime fan doesn't own this already?]
Mind Games
Shawn Michales vs. Mankind [Same comment for the Iron Man Match. Shawn does a cross body to Mankind at one point and both men fall through a table at ringside! The Undertaker makes an apperance near the end.]
Wrestlemania 14
Shawn Michales vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin [The Austin Era Has Begun!!!...to quote Jim Ross. Mike Tyson was funny to watch during the match.]
DISK 3
Royal Rumble 2000
Street Fight
HHH vs. Cactus Jack [Great, great match. Thumtacks, chairs, steel steps, barbed wire baseball bats, handcuffs....great match. The Rock makes an appearance as does Stephanie McMahon near the end.]
Summerslam 2000
Triple Threat Match
The Rock vs. HHH vs. Kurt Angle [Great match that had a lot of interference with Stephanie McMahon and a botched table spot near the beginning...watch the crowd explode when the Rock appears. Great moment when Angle turned on HHH after telling Stephanie he'd help her husband.]
Wrestlemania 17
The Rock vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin [The second of the three times the two fought at a Wrestlemania, and their best one of the three. Austin's heel turn is pulled off greatly]
Vengeance 2001
Undisputed Championship Match
Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Chris Jericho [Finally, Jericho wins the title he deserved more than once! Hopefully the celebration at the end will also be included!]
Vengeance 2002
Triple Threat Match
The Rock vs. The Undertaker vs. Kurt Angle [Three of the best made a fantastic match, one of the match of the year candidates of 2002. Each one hit the other's finishing move on the third man! Try to envision what I just said! ha ha. The Rock wins his last title]
Summerslam 2002
Undisputed Championship Match
The Rock vs. Brock Lesnar [Okay match to show Brock become the youngest [at that time] champion in history] Paul Heyman gets Rock Bottomed through the announce table!]
Royal Rumble 2003
Kurt Angle vs. Chris Benoit [The best one on one wrestling match in 2003. This is the match i watch over and over again. Best moment was when Benoit german suplexed Angle all the way over so Angle did a 360 turn in midair!
The crowd appreciation for Benoit at the end of the match SHOULD be included to show how much Benoit and Angle entertained the audience]
Vengeance 2005
Triple Threat Match
John Cena vs. Christain vs. Chris Jericho [Good match, this was when Cena was untouchable but the crowd was evenly split for all three men. A great Tower of Doom moment in one corner of the ring.]
There you have it. For me, I would have liked to have seen different matches rather than getting HBK/Mankind, Iron Man Match at WM12 again. And also there were way too many Hogan matches for my taste. I would have liked to have seen other rare matches such as:
The Rock vs. Mankind - I Quit Match
Cactus Jack vs. Triple H, Hell in a Cell - No Way Out 2000
Chris Benoit vs. The Rock - Fully Loaded 2000
Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Chris Benoit - Smackdown 2001
Rob Van Dam vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Kurt Angle - No Mercy 2001
The Rock vs. Chris Jericho - Royal Rumble 2002
The Undertaker vs. Jeff Hardy, Ladder Match - Raw 2002
Brock Lesnar vs. Kurt Angle, Iron Man Match - Smackdown 2003
And why aren't there any matches with Eddie Guerrero? What about these matches:
Eddie Guerrero vs. Brock Lesnar - No Way Out 2004
Eddie Guerrero vs. Kurt Angle - Wrestlemania 20
Eddie Guerrero vs. JBL, Steel Cage Match - Smackdown 2004
Oh well, maybe these will be on other DVDs one day. If you are an old fan of wrestling, probably the only matches you might be interested in are in the first disk, but I still recommend this DVD for the collection of great matches. Show your friends who think wrestling is stupid this DVD collection and prove them all wrong!!!!
Highly Recommended

WWE: New World Order (nWo) - Back in Black (2002) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)'N W O: Back in Black' chronicles the rise and fall of the New World Order in WCW in the late 90s and its recent resurgence in the WWF in 2002. The 83 minute feature covers the beginnings of the group very well but is incomplete as glosses over A LOT of ground in between.
THE FEATURE:
The actual feature covers the following:
1.A rundown of the WWF careers of Hulk Hogan, Razor Ramon and 'Big Daddy Cool' Diesel.
2.The origins of the 'Monday Night Wars' and the first appearances of Scott Hall and Kevin Nash on WCW Monday Nitro.
3.The formation of the N W O at the Bash at the Beach 1996.
4.The N W O's running roughshod over the WCW roster during the Summer and Fall of 1996 including the parking lot attacks, in-ring attack on the Horsemen and Dungeon of Doom and the Giant's joining the N W O.
5.From there the feature TOTALLY glosses over the rest of the N W O storyline alluding to the tons of members that later joined and completely ignoring the rest of the angle. It also quickly glosses over what the WWF did during this time.
6.The feature picks up in the present with Ric Flair joining the WWF in November, 2001 and talks about how the Flair vs. McMahon feud led to McMahon brining back the N W O at February's No Way Out PPV. The rest of the feature talks about the N W O's short-lived WWF career up to Wrestlemania X-8.
THE DVD SPECIAL FEATURES:
Once again, the WWE is putting that WCW video library to great use with some GREAT extra matches on here. Here are the DVD extras:
1.Scott Hall and Kevin Nash vs. Randy 'Macho Man' Savage, Sting and Lex Luger from Bash at the Beach 1996: The landmark match and promo that started it all Hogan turns heel and joins the Outsiders to form the 'New World Organization.' 16 minutes. 4 stars.
2.Hall, Nash, Hogan and N W O Sting vs. Ric Flair, Arn Anderson, Lex Luger and Sting from War Games 1996: The match that started the whole 'Crow Sting' angle. 20 minutes. 4 stars.
3.Kevin Nash vs. Bill Goldberg from Starrcade '98: Landmark match as Nash buries Goldberg, killing his heat and winning streak. 15 minutes. 3 ¾ stars
4.Hogan, Hall and Nash vs. 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin and The Rock from Raw, 3/11/02. Decent Raw Main Event. 9 minutes. 2 stars.
5. Two WWE video promos, one for the N W O, one promoting the No Way Out 2002 Pay Per View.
6.4 hidden promos including one of the original N W O propaganda promos from '96.
THE CRITICISM:
While the feature is okay, the one limiting thing about it (and this applies to just about ALL WWF/E DVDs) is the hour time limit. There is just SOOOO much more that they can include on this but didn't. The beginning of the feature was just awesome with the chronicling of the 3 men's WWF careers and the origins of the N W O. Everything afterward is ALRIGHT but not that great. I REALLY did not like how they just skipped over everything else that happened in between. To me, this chronicling of the N W O storyline is incomplete for it. They fail to discuss the N W O feuds with Sting, Luger, the Horsemen, Piper and DDP and the split of N W O. Sure as the angle dragged on it sucked, but this 'revisionist' history of the angle is just bad. Some of the other things they could have included:
1.More bonus matches. They could have included more WCW matches including the War Games where the N W O killed the Horsemen. What about the Starrcade '97 match between Hogan and Sting which was the big payoff (though how underwhelming it was') to the N W O angle? What about the celebrity matches with Rodman or Jay Leno? Sure they weren't great matches, but they did big business.
2.More WCW footage, less WWF footage. The bonus promos were almost all WWF produced. The N W O was a WCW ANGLE. The focus should have been on the WCW side. More of the WCW promos should have been included including those t-shirt commercials.
THE VERDICT:
Well, the first half of the feature ruled; the second half did not. The included bonus matches were a great extra although that Rock/Austin match didn't really belong, imho.
Overall, the video, while disappointing, is good for historical value as it is an OKAY recap of one of the biggest money making angles in wrestling history. For that reason this is recommended although the product itself could have been WAY better.
Somewhat Recommended
