WWE DVD Discussion

[Troy]

The title would have been a way to try to get more mainstream attention since they are using his real name that he uses for acting. It is a terrible name but I like how the hid it in the cover. Cover looks awesome.

 

[Slim]

The cover looks good. I still might pass on it though.

Can't wait for this.

 

[Crippler]

match listing is good.

 

[Dale]

match listing is good.

I thought the same myself even with my terrible memory. Alot of the matches sound familiar to me even if I can't remember how good they actually were.

 

[Slim]

I'm almost certain now that I'll pass. I have most of those matches already on some DVD so the only thing I'd be getting it for is the biography.

 

[Heisenberg]

The documentaries on these dvds that WWE have been releasing lately have been great and I'm sure The Rocks will be amazing too. Match listing looks awesome also.

 

[Troy]

Most of the matches listed are good but were on the previous WWE Rock DVD release that I already have. Might wait on this one to hear how good the documentary part is.

 

[BadBooking]

I'm going to make a broad analogy.

This new Rock collection is to 'Most Electrifying Man in Sports Entertainment' and 'Just Bring It' what 'My Journey' was to 'Heartbreak & Triumph' (and 'From the Vault') to Shawn Michaels. A perfect companion/expansion to previously-released material.

Funnily enough, I was dared by WWE DVD News - Latest WWE DVD Release Dates, WWE DVD Reviews to make a custom listing from my Twitter account. So on my blog, I made one: Bad Booking's Blogs: The Rock: The Epic Adventure of Dwayne Johnson . What do you guys think of this custom listing as opposed to the one that is going to be released for real?

It should also be noted I have a good-sized DVD collection.

 

[InYourFace]

Probably wnt be grabbing The Rock's DVD, more then content with the butt load of matches on his previous set.

 

[Anglemark18]

I'm definitely getting the rocks new set. It's been far too long without a Rock documentary.

 

[Duke Nukem]

We need some more DVD's based on old school 80's wrestlers. I thoroughly enjoy these.

I wish they'd make a Rick Rude one.... maybe a Million Dollar Man one.

 

[The New F'n Show]

All for 80's DVDs.

 

[Duke Nukem]

I finally sat down and watched the entire Bret/Shawn dvd. Pretty good. I also watched the best of starcade 1983-1990 vhs and I must say it is better then I thought.

 

[Heisenberg]

Might watch that Bret/Shawn DVD, I've just been watching some of the matches on the new SCSA DVD.
