There is a HHH doc DVD on the 2013 schedule for WWE... but its been there for like the last 2 years and keeps getting cancelled. Who knows, maybe 2013 is the year its actually released :p.
I may be wrong on this one, but I think The Game is still the most in-depth documentary on Triple H currently. The various other releases about him have been match compilations with the little documentary profile with others speaking about his career.

Thanks both of you

Was Shows Doc good?

SummerSlam 1997:

Mankind vs HHH - ***1/4
Goldust vs Brian Pillman - **
Legion of Doom vs The Godwinns - **1/4
British Bulldog vs Ken Shamrock - **1/2
Los Boricuas vs The Disciples of Apocalypse - **3/4
Owen Hart vs Stone Cold - ***1/4
The Undertaker vs Bret Hart - ***3/4

Overall: *** out of ***** (Not a bad first impression for the pre-Attitude Era stuff for me. The main event matches are great, the opener is decent but most of the stuff in the middle are standard tag team stuff or skippable.)
I'm just about to watch the Owen Hart vs Austin match but the PPV looks alright so far. Only decent match (As you said) before the main event was the opener. The million dollar winner crap in the middle of the show was a waste of time, although it was nice looking at Sunny and Sable. :cool2 . From what I've heard, the last two matches and the opener saved the show. The finish of the Brish Bulldog - Ken Shamrock match was disappointing as well. I just can't wait for Kane's debut though, I'm like 11 shows behind it :(

Anyone else like Taker/Rey at RR 2010? I thought it was excellent. Wish we saw more matches between the two.
Very good match. Had it at ***1/2 I think on last watch. All of their matches are at least good. Think they have 4 in total:

One in 2003
One in 2009
Two in 2010

Not sure though. The one in 2009 might've been in 2010.

I'm gonna first finish 2004 (and maybe watch 05 too) before I go on with the rest of 97. But yeah, SS 97 has three good matches and some standard tag team matches and two disappointing/horrible one-on-one matches. That Goldust/Pillman match was specially bad. ** is probably too generous of me. Things will likely be awesome once The Rock rises and Austin becomes an official main eventer in 98 and the following years speak for themselves.

I have quite a few dream feuds involving Rey. Most notably Rock/Rey, Rey/HHH, and Rey/HBK.
Happened in 2005 RAW on the Eddie Memorial Show (kinda hard to watch due the circumstances) and Smackdown 2009 go home show to the Rumble. Great Match with a disappointing ending. I actually had it pretty high at about a ***3/4 but that's just me.

Just finished watching it all. What's up with the botched endings? Hart - Austin was botched and the ending of HHH - Mankind looked awkward. What was Chyna trying to do? Also The brawl at the end of the 8 man tag team match was pretty weird. One of the D.O.A members goes on his bike in an attempt to run over the other wrestlers but then nobody hardly moves, they just continue to brawl acting like no one is trying to run them over :lol . One thing that I will give credit for is the amount of tag team/factions. We had L.O.D, Hart Foundation, New Black Jacks, that Puerto Rican faction, D.O.A, Nation of Domination, Godwins and etc.

The Pillman/Golddust match may be good for a RAW show but was poor for the PPV standards. I rate this PPV a 7. Just three good matches and the other matches weren't good enough for a PPV like Summerslam.

That Mankind/HHH ending was just awkward. Mankind was climbing down the cage while HHH played dead and Chyna came over just to check on him instead of doing something to help him win. Then Mankind randomly climbs back up and does that elbow drop and THEN we got a proper finish with Chyna dragging HHH through the door and Mankind climbing down at the same time.

You seen The Ultimate Ric Flair Collection DVD? OOP now I believe, but if you ain't got it, GET IT.

Alternatively I have about... 38 discs of Flair :p.

Edit: 44 discs of Flair including a 26 disc comp, a 10 disc "in japan" comp, a 3 disc "the end" comp (his final run in WWE), and a 5 disc "Vs Ronnie Garvin" comp :p.
