Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
Am I the only one who doesn't rate Benoit/Angle from the Rumble? I don't know , I'm not a massive Angle fan but I can name a lot more matches from both that I rate higher.
On the topic of JBL/Eddie it's one of my favourite Eddie matches ever and that's saying a lot. JBL was such an underrated worker. I wish he was a singles wrestler for a lot longer. He's everything Bobby Roode wishes he was. So simple but yet so effective. I;m gonna rewatch the Eddie/Rey tv match because it's been ages since I've seen it.

Yes, its a great series and they are all at least good. 1997 with Cornette is probably the best so far.

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
Surprised at all the love Benoit/Finaly JD06 is getting around here. And speaking of Regal/Benoit, has anyone seen their match in Velocity in 2005? I think it's better than the No Mercy 06 one although Josh Matthews sounded awful when it came to commentating back then. But he can call the moves correctly, so that's something.

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
Their velocity match is excellent. #22 on my top 100 WWF/E matches ever list. No Mercy was... #47 I think.
Eddie/JBL JD is incredible. #15 on my list. Benoit/Finlay JD was #20.
Shame Eddie and Finlay never really did anything together. I recall a short match on Nitro in 98 and that's about it. Man, if only Eddie didn't die in 05  . SD 06 was incredible to begin with... but if Eddie was there too? Eddie/Regal, Eddie/Finlay, Eddie/Henry, Eddie/UNDERTAKER, Eddie/Kennedy (during the brief year period where Kennedy was good), Eddie/Benoit... FAPFAPFAPFAPFAPFAPFAPFAPFAP.

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
Yep, NWO set looks like shit. Will say the Legens of Wrestling roundtable is a pretty cool inclusion in the blu ray extras though.

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
Whey fucking hey - they are least recognising Sting's massive involvment in the fued, although it'll be "Yeah Sting was great for us"
Massive shame for me that the Roundtable is blu ray only, although I did DL it anyways so its no biggie I suppose, I just hope the doc has involvment from everyone involved, otherwise what's the point tbh.
I agree about the matchs Cal, not much to shout about which we knew anyways,
I may just wait for a sale or sumet tbh.

Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
No Hogan or Bischoff for the doc, and likely no Hall either, leaving just Nash, Show and Waltman as the big(ish) names. Maybe DiBiase too.
