That's a big reason why I thought the match was so great. Too often do guys have a great match then the rematch comes and they try to top the original but it ends up coming off as rushed or not nearly as good.
I thought Edge & Taker did a great job of being content with the rematch not being nearly as good because lets face it, they weren't going to be able to duplicate the original no matter what, so why bother trying to force it and end up having a sloppy match? They were loose and comfortable which i thought transitioned into the perfect rematch.

Re: Official WWE DVD Help/Discussion/Review Thread
I probabaly enjoyed Taker/Edge II more than the first. Although the first was better, which is odd. I wasen't bored during the opening of the Backlash match either.

Well, I would love to see these matches:
Piper/Valentine(83)
Magnum TA/Tully(85)
Rhodes/Flair(85)
Flair/Luger(88)
Windham/Bigleow(88)
Flair/Sting(89)
Doom vs Arn Anderson/Windham(90)
Vader/Sting(92)
Steamboat/Douglas vs Windham/Pillman(92)
Flair/Vader(93)
Liger/Benoit(95, even tho it won't be on there)
Kanemoto/Wright(95)
Ohtani/Guerrero(95)
Flair/Sting/Luger(95)
Malenko/Dragon(96)
Eddy/DDP(96)
Sting/Hogan(97)
Kidman/Rey/Juvi(98, this might be the 98 MOTY for North America)
Benoit/Jarrett(99, again this great match won't be on there)
The Race/Flair match is already on the Flair DVD and the other Dusty match as well. It's a shame the 2 Benoit matches won't get on there, both are classic matches.

Wile I loved Kidman/Rey/Juvi I don't know if it was better then highway to hell, ladder rock and h, foley-taker HIAC or Foey-Austin over the edge
Nice list though!

Re: Official WWE DVD Help/Discussion/Review Thread
ARRRRGGHHHHH i really could slap people sometimes. How hard is it to have a calm, mature debate/conversation?! We're talking about wrestling which we all like but as soon as someone disagrees with you there are words like 'retard' and 'gimmick poster' thrown around. Just because someone has a different opinion?! Give me a break, this place makes me nuts sometimes.
Oh, i wasn't talking about anyone in this thread either. Just some blind fools in another thread who aren't mature enough to have an intelligent conversation.
Anyway, what have we been talking about? I don't fancy reading through the 20 pages i've missed

Great predictions; your right about Benoit also, I can't really see them getting put on.
