I think it would be tough for them to put matches with him in Japan there, because they would have to put new commentary there. Just saw Flair vs Inoki from 1995 in Korea, that was great.

I went and picked up The Rock DVD today. Pretty much watched today were the list of promos. I was really kind of pissed off that they didn't include the whole Sacramento promo of him singing about how the Lakers were going to beat the Kings in May. That was amazing. Easily one of the best promos ever. Glad the line still made it though in the '1 liners'

anyone looking forward to the Summerslam collection release? I really like the anthology sets, I might pick it up with my saved money for the summer, that's if I don't spend it all on another company.

- The Steve Austin DVD has shipped 177,000 units, while the new HHH DVD has shipped 202,000 units.

Can't say I'm shocked that Preparation H's DVD is selling more than Austin's because people flock to anything that sucks... So with that said, when does The Mountie's DVD come out?

Posted elsewhere in the media section but had no answers....

Anyone got any opinions, reviews or verdicts on the Legacy Of AWA DVD?

Hennig was one of my favorite wrestlers when I was growing up, and I even appreciated his run in WCW (though it was painful at times).

Still, I'm going to wait until I see the match list before saying "MUST BUY!". If they have some of his stuff from the AWA (the Tag Title win with Hall over Garvin and Regal, the World titlewin over Bockwinkel, and the title loss to Jerry Lawler), along with a nice collection of his WWF stuff (all of the "Perfect" promos, maybe even some of his early work with Eddie Gilbert, along with the awesome hammer incident with Genius, and all of his great work from his feud with Texas Tornado on (Bret Hart, Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels, ect.) I'll be all over this collection. If it's just a documentary with a lacking match list of nothing but his WWF stuff, I'll probably pass.


PS: Please, please, PLEASE tell me "Rap is Crap" is among the extras on this DVD.

"Oh, I love NASCAR racing. Richard Petty is still the king. Some call me a redneck, but you know that's a beautiful thing! There's only one thing that I hate, cause its a bunch of crap. I..I..I hate rap!"

West Texas Rednecks 4 life!
