Personally I think it is their best, but other people will disagree with me no doubt. They always had good matches though.

Re: Official WWE DVD Help/Discussion/Review Thread
DAMN~!! I meant Survivor Series 2003!
So...
I just ordered Rob Van Dam - One Of A Kind and Survivour Series 2003. +32 (or higher) rep for an overview rate, and a donation (amount depending of the depth of the rate) for a match-by-match rate.
Ps. A really good in-depth rate will get 100,000 points!

I didn't really like the WCCW DVD. It should really have been called "The Von Erich Tragedy DVD", as it was based mainly around all the terrible things that happened to their family.
Do you have the AWA DVD? If not, I would recommend that DVD instead. The documentary is WAY better than the WCCW one.

In that case...
Survivor Series 2003
Kane/Shane: **3/4 - ***
Bischoff/Austin SSeries: ****1/4
Vince/Taker: 1/4* (Don't recall McMahon getting in any offense... at all... correct me if I'm wrong...)

I only downloaded the documentary (I can't afford to buy it just yet  ), so I don't know what the matches are like. And yeah, the documentary is pretty depressing.

Re: Official WWE DVD Help/Discussion/Review Thread
Does anyone know how long DVDs from Silvervision take to arrive? (UK Shop)
I've ordered tonnes from them before, but I can't remember.

From all the times I have bought DVD's from there, they have taken no longer than 2 days. Great service, especially for free delivery.

I think I prefer the AWA match listings lol  But it is entirely up to you, if you prefer the WCCW matches, then buy that one instead. It does have a good set of matches on there, but I think the documentary is the worst part of the DVD.
