So just wanted to double check and make sure nobody found the unfogiven blockbuster exclusive being sold? I read the other thread talking about from summerslam on, they will rent the WWE's only.
Want to make sure before I spend the 24.99 to rent and purchase them!
Thanks so much

Well I called and asked some questions about purchasing them, and the dude seemed like he didn't know what he was talking about. Maybe you guys can confirm?
First of all, I have the 2 rentals out at a time pass, and I want to use that to get Summerslam and Unforgiven. (That why I don't have to add the rental fees to the price tag.) He said okay. Then I said I would want to purchase them. He said I would have to wait the 7 days then my card would be charged $24.99. Okay, so I asked him if I could rent them and then at that time I could just pay for the discs. This way I don't have to lose a week of swapping out rentals. He told me that recently they changed the system and you automatically have to wait the 7 days, they can't do it same time. Does anybody know if this is true?
Getting these for $25 each is not bad at all. Only 5 bucks more than normal.
Thanks for any help,
Shane

I honestly don't see them having regular versions that they keep just for online sales in the warehouses, and used for nothing else.
Let us know what you end up getting.

No Matches that is just sad.
Is the Teddy Long Wedding the whole entire wedding including the Godfather coming down to the ring? (I did miss that episode of Smackdown and heard it was good)

Hardcore Homecoming: November Reign was universally praised by fans and critics as a nostalgic trip down hardcore memory lane, settling longstading feuds in front of one of the most rabid crowds in wrestling history! See how this event set Philly on fire with a NOVEMBER REIGN TO REMEMBER!

A group of misfits, outcasts, and renegades led by a fearless visionary that ushered in a new era of professional wrestling from a dive bingo hall in south Philadelphia.

FOREVER HARDCORE recounts the amazing story of how Tod Gordon's Eastern Championship Wrestling got EXTREME and went on to impact the wrestling business forever. Take an uncensored journey through the highs and lows of a group of athletes that were never supposed to make it, and their reflections of why they will always be FOREVER HARDCORE.
From SHANE DOUGLAS' account of throwing down the NWA World Title... To RAVEN’S bitter take on the crucifixion incident ... to NEW JACK'S state of mind during the Mass Transit bloodbath... to TOD GORDON'S revelation of the truth behind the "WCW mole story" and Eric Bishoff's attempt to destroy HARCORE...to SANDMAN'S controversial pre-match rituals. . . to TERRY FUNK'S decision to be part of Hardcore Homecoming instead of working for Vince McMahon, and for the first time ever SABU SPEAKS! FOREVER HARDCORE gives you the amazing stories and first hand accounts of every major aspect of the revolution that changed wrestling FOREVER.
Starring:
Terry Funk, Shane Douglas, Sabu, Raven, Sandman, Joey Styles, Mick Foley, Justin Credible, New Jack, Axl Rotten, Ian Rotten, Kronus, Too Cold Scorpio, Kid Kash, Chris Benoit, Al Snow, and many more!
Interactive Menus, Bonus Matches, Extended Director’s Cut , Multiple Hidden Easter Eggs, Over 2 hours of bonus footage and hardcore wrestling matches including many never before released!
/END
I happen to have all three on dvd, but Amazon does have it for only $22.49, not bad for all the content your getting. Too bad November Reign is still missing the Bubba Ray & D-Von Dudley vs. Terry Funk & Sabu Main event.

TNA does not allow their wrestlers to appear on nationally released dvds (other than TNA dvds...)

I'm a big fan of shoot interviews... I mainly pick up anything with RAVEN from RFVideo. I am really looking forward to the new shoot with Honky Tonk Man, New Jack and Iron Sheik all together.
