So after viewing, what do you think I should get. This, COD8, Hurt 2007, or NYNO.

Instead of picking up House of Hardcore 2002 I wouls suggest getting "IWA:MS Best of 2002" It features the Punk vs Hero TLC Match along with a phenominal Fallen Angel vs Styles match and a very good Ace Steele vs Rey Mysterio along with a pretty good Whitmer vs Hero match.

I havent seen house of hardcore but that to em sounds tons better then their card.

For people in the UK which site is best (i.e quick delivery, cheap) for ordering Indy dvds like IWA:MS and CZW?

[enzuigiri89]

I would like to ask if anyone knows where would be the best place to order indy/puro (ROH, PWG, IWA-MS, NOAH etc.) DVD's so that the shipping cost's and other expences wouldn't be overly high because I live in Finland (which is located between Sweden and Russia incase you didn't know...) and it is quite expencive to order DVD's from abroad...

Do yall remember the Best of CM Punk that was released earlier this year. Here is the overview if anyone is still interested in picking it up it looks solid I want it for the IWA-MS stuff.

Like many fans, I wasn't sure exactly what Big Vision's "Best of CM Punk" DVD contained when I first heard about it (& I still haven't seen any updated information). After buying it, I can provide some much needed information. The main part seems to be Best of CM Punk in FIP DVD which contains these matches from 2004: [...]. I haven't viewed this part yet, but will watch it over the weekend.

The thing that makes this DVD great is the Bonus Features.

* Bonus Matches from Ring of Honor:
vs. Bryan Danielson (Guest Referee Ricky Steamboat) ...ROH Reborn Stage 1 4/23/04
vs. Roderick Strong...The Future Is Now 6/12/05

* Bonus IWA-Mid South Career Retrospective:
This is the best part of the DVD which sets it apart from the ROH/FIP version of this release. It is a 40 minute highlight reel on CM Punk and all he has done in the IWA with highlights of many of his important matches throughout the years from 2001 until 2005. It was originally a bonus feature from the DVD version of IWA Mid-South's"No Blood No Guts No Glory 2005" on July 2, 2005 in Valparaiso, IN.

Of course, you'll get clips of many matches against Chris Hero including the famous Tables & Ladder Match & 93 minute 'When Hero Met Punk' match. There's several matches featuring Colt Cabana. As an unexpected surprise, all three of CM Punk's matches against the late, great Eddy Guerrero are added which includes a 3-Way with an unmasked Rey Mysterio Jr., an IWA:MS Title Match, and a 3-Way with Colt Cabana in front of about 100 fans as written about in Guerrero's book.

You'll see highlights from Punk in several annual IWA-MS tournaments. First up is the Ted Petty Invitational tournament from 2002 against M-Dogg 20, "The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels, Chris Hero, & BJ Whitmer. Next is the the initial Strong Style tourament in 2003 against Tarek the Great, Stan Dupp (WWE Raw's Trevor Murdoch), & BJ Whitmer. Then you get the Tag Team Title tournament in 2004 w/ Colt Cabana vs Nigel McGuinness & Chad Collyer, Havana Pitbulls of Reyes & Puma and Southern Comfort of Tracy Smothers & Chris Hamrick.

The end features a series of single matches which included the first one on one IWA meeting in over 16 months between CM Punk & Chris Hero, a match from the 8th Anniversary show against AJ Styles, another match against Chris Hero and this highlight reel concludes with a pair of entertianing matches against Delirious, the latter took place at "Dedication" a tribute to Chris Candido that contains Punk borrowing Candido's classic "full moon" spot. This IWA: Mid-South Career Retrospective was worth the price alone.

*Trailers
This section is a series of trailers from Big Vision Entertainment, many of which can be viewed at BVE's YouTube video page: [...].

* Music Video
This is from a southern California band, Five Victims Four Graves, who provides music for this DVD. They remind me of Hatebreed, a band CM Punk used for his entrance theme music in early 2003. Unfortunately, this is just the regular music video for the song "Calling Back This S.O.S." without any footage of CM Punk. This song can be downloaded for free and the video can be viewed at the band's MySpace page: [...]

Smartmarkvideo.com is the only place to get IWA-MS and CZW DVDs.

Also, ROH is now running a 15% off and Buy 3, Get 1 Free FIP Deal. However, Highspots.com is running a 3 for $20 on FIP DVDs. So, if you're going to buy some older FIP shows head over to HS but if you're gonna buy newer FIP than use the ROH deal.
