Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
Want to give my thoughts on the Clash of the Champions DVD. Now I am pre-ordering this as it just looks like there is some good wrestling matches on there. It certainly appeals to me more than Rock & Edge sets (not that they don't look good). Strange how they have DVD exclusive content I must say.

I was hoping either it had alot of old matches, interviews, Raw/Smackdown/Heat etc appearances... Is it like a documentary about Glenn or more about the history of Kane?

It's a match compilation which also highlights the history of Kane (up until 2008).
Kane himself provides the links between the matches and there is some really good selections on the disk;
Kane vs Undertaker - Wrestlemania 14
Kane vs Xpac - Steel Cage
Kane vs Chris Jericho - Armageddon 2000
Brothers of Destruction vs Dudleyz vs Edge & Christian - No Way Out 2001
Kane vs Triple H - Judgement Day 2001
Kane vs RVD - Steel Cage
the shane McMahon matches
the cage and stretcher matches vs Edge (ah, what a waste their 2010 feud was...)
Kane vs Finlay
Kane vs Undertaker - Smackdown 2008

This is pretty excellent and smokes anything else I've ever seen D.Kid in. I really don't think he's even a good wrestler anymore and can name a good 300 wrestlers I'd take over him, but I can't name a negative thing he did in this particular match. Fujinami was about as good as anybody in the world in 1980.
Only thing else on the set I care enough to remember is the two Tiger Mask matches, which I don't like anymore. I bet I've seen some of those AJ 89 tags but remember squat about them. They have Jumbo, Hansen and Tenryu so they have to be good on some level.

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
Just watched Unforgiven 06, very entertaining PPV! 2006 was quite a good year for the (B)PPV's in general, but apart from WM 22, I can't help but think the other 3 of the big 4 were pretty big let downs.
RR 06 - Enjoyed the RR and that was it.
Summerslam 06 - Foley/Flair was brilliant.
Survivor Series 06 - Meh,

Taker/HHH HIAC w/ HBK as ref has been excellent every week. Even the weakest segment, last week HBK/HHH, was still a great segment. The build up and segments are the complete opposite from last year. All they need is to produce a classic Cell match, and all in all it will have been an amazing feud from top to bottom.
Rock/Cena has been disappointing... Rock specifically has been very disappointing. However this week on Raw, his concert was great. Cena though has been hitting it out of the park each week, but the whole feud is just "meh". It's stuff that's been said over and over again for a year now. I'm looking forward a lot more for Taker/HHH than Rock/Cena, and two months ago I never thought that would be the case.
I'm actually also looking forward to Punk/Jericho more than Rock/Cena as well. I like how they're fighting over who the best in the world is and that the WWE Title symbolizes who that person is. Punk wants to prove he's the best wrestler in the world and Jericho wants to prove he's still the best in the world. But just to keep it from getting to bland I like that they injected the a personal side to this story on Raw, with Jericho trying to break Punk down and get to him. And based on the way Punk sold the promo, it looks like he was successful. They've built the feud up beautifully and I'm looking forward to seeing what Punk has to say next week.
Rest of the card doesn't interest me much. Sheamus/Bryan has the same problem as Edge/Del Rio last year, and it's that there just isn't much substance to the feud. Orton/Kane is... random. Rhodes/Show build up has been decent enough, and I like that the IC Title is on the WM card. Honestly out of all the undercard feuds, Rhodes/Show is what I've liked the most. Team Laurinitis vs. Team Long isn't bad, but we don't even know the full teams yet (or I don't anyway). And I think that's it.

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
How's WM looking? For me, kinda like this:
1] Sheamus-Bryan: I have never let myself forget that "Great White" won his Titles on a Fatal 4-way & a Tables match. Have no interest in seeing him win a HW Title ever again, but will be nice to see him try in a usual singles match against a very good wrestler.
2] Punk-Jericho: Outside of the Rock's "concert", Jericho's bit on the 'Tron may have been what bored me more than anything in the live crowd this week. That said, I have been dreaming of this match since Punk started using the popular phrase, & both are great wrestlers, so am looking forward to this (long as no stips or anything get added to screw it up).
3] Taker-HHH: I was perhaps the only one in Cleveland who literally did not care when Taker came to the ring. To me, he has long seemed like Flair & Hogan, currently living (in the biz) largely on the fumes of his earlier great moments/matches. That said, add a HHH rematch, HBK as ref, "End Of An Era" talk (reminds me of something with Vince &... I think Austin?), & HIAC, & I'm into this as much as I think I ever will be.
4] Rock-Cena: Honestly, I think I saw this discussed online for a long time before it was announced. I thought it was impossible for the match to live up to the promo work both would do. To my surprise, it appears quite possible, as Cena has been stellar, while Rock left much to be (proverbially) desired.
5] Almost forgot about Rhodes-Show... I'm hoping I will between now & the event.
6] GM Teams: Not really sure until teams get confirmed.

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
Always wanted to see HHH/Taker in the Cell. Hopefully they still have enough in them to produce something great. I'd be shocked if it's better than last year's match.
Haven't followed the product in months but glad to hear Danielson is still world champion. The two title matches look good on paper.
What's Christian doing?
