Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
SD 11' EC is epic. McIntyre is awesome and as a whole the match is wonderful. I have it 4th on my list after Raw '08, Raw '09 and Raw '05.

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
McIntyre totally stole the show in the SD 2011 Elimination Chamber, it came from nowhere as well, great performance. The match as a whole was really good
For me the original Chamber at Survior Series 2002 stands as the best just because everything was new, jericho had a great performance, Kane was a beast, HHH did most of the match unable to breath properly and it had a great ending with Michaels winning the title (although his tights were horrendous that night!)

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
I literally ONLY remember McIntyre from that EC match. NYR 05 is still my favourite. 02 one is really good but I get bored as shit with HHH/Y2J Vs HBK at the end, and Booker T is just terrible and should never have been in the match imo  .

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
I understand where you're coming from with Booker, he really didn't anything to the match.
I'd forgotten about NYR, might rewatch that later because I can't really remember it

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
Summerslam 1998
Triple H vs. The Rock - ****1/4
Stone Cold vs. The Undertaker - ***3/4
Really dug the two main events. You had guys at the top level on this show with Trips and Rocky just about breaking through the main event caliber. There was something about Taker/Austin which I loved. I thought the pace was immense, really dug the booking, nice table spot and with no help from Kane. Would of hit the full 4 if the ending was better but it came off as sudden and was over in a flash. Helped the feud develop though.
Don't have star ratings for the rest of the show from memory but it's an attitude era show that sticks out in memory as its a lovely, polished show.

HHH/Rock bored me mostly, and I thought Undertaker/Austin was total trash. Sloppy brawling, botches... and that was the match  .

Wrestling DVD's
Where do people on this forum get their wrestling DVD's from? Does anyone make DVD collections to sell?

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
I know, it's weird. A lot of people think its sloppy but I was watching it and actually getting really into it, I loved it. Felt it flowed nicely with the ring work then into the crowd then a table spot ready for the finish. I was a little pissed when it suddenly ended but overall found it enjoyable.

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
My thoughts on a few things:
1] Mayweather-Show = Not sure I ever saw this match. (Cody showing Big Show clips was my first time seeing a ton of that.) Having celebs on the show is usually fine, & even in matches... But at Wrestlemania?! Ultimate stupid. (Though no complaints about this year's tag.)
2] Miz headlining Mania = Was a fan of his on the MTV "Challenge" shows before WWE ever signed him. That said, never thought he deserved the belt, nor to headline the "biggest show of the year". (I understand a "night of Champions" or something, but the Title match is not necessarily your main event... Like this year's Mania.)
3] I agree it is too early for Bryan or Ryder DVD, & especially Sheamus. (Title means nothing in that case.) I still find I enjoy some of "Word Life", though I also felt that was too early. (Later ones seem over-packed, on the other hand.) That said, anyone waiting for DVDs of Regal or Christian? Don't hold your breath.
