I am all over this "toothless aggression" DVD.

An amazingly comprehensive lineup for this DVD. His match against Lyger is undoubtedly the best of their series, and the Sasuke match is a must have. Unfortunately, the match against Eddie Guerrero from the J Cup is a letdown, considering how great their match at the 1995 Super Jrs. was.

But overall, a fantastic set. The WWE continues to impress me with their wrestler compilations.

I think I just filled the cup :D.

Chris Benoit vs. Bret Hart
Owen Hart Tribute Match, WCW Monday Nitro (04.10.99)

Sweet mother f'in Jesus!

was the brain pillman show a licensed WWE event, because i remember hearing about that show. I can't just remember

The Brian Pillman show was a fund raiser for Pillman's widow and family after he died. So no it was not an actual WWE event. In fact, it was the strength of William Regal's match with Benoit that got Regal his shot back at being in the WWE after his small "problem" with drugs.

thanks for the info

i'm glad they have included this match to

I'm sold. :up:

Hey all here is the ad for this dvd :

Press Here

It seems that the Ric Flair dvd started a trend because many WWE dvd's that came out afterwards seems to be a must-have!

Looks good to me!

The Benoit vs. Sabu match - is that the one where Sabu breaks his neck?

the Eddie Guerrero DVD is next, so i'm guessing that will be another must have

along with the RVD



FYI, annouced today is a History of the Championship DVD was annouced.Nothing is known at this time though

I was there for this match...un****ingreal...these two worked their way up from the stands into the damn bathroom...amazing match!!!

Here's my take, hopefully the bio portion will mention the Dynamite Kid~!

Pegasus Kid vs. Jushin Liger
IWGP Junior Heavyweight Title Match (Tokyo, Japan - 19.08.90)

*not the best in their series, but a really good juniors match. It's almost surreal seeing Liger on a WWE DVD*

Chris Benoit vs. Too Cold Scorpio
WCW Superbrawl (21.04.93)
*excellent forgotten match of the early 90's in WCW*

Wild Pegasus Chris Benoit vs. Black Tiger
Super J Cup Tournament Round 2 (Tokyo, Japan - 16.04.94)
*they had better in Japan, but this was still a decent Benoit/Guerrero outing*

Wild Pegasus Chris Benoit vs. Great Sasuke
Super J Cup Tournament Final (Tokyo, Japan - 16.04.94)
*this is probably the best match of Benoit's career and that's saying a lot*

Chris Benoit vs. Sabu
ECW November 2 Remember (16.11.95)
*not sure if the date is right on this one. It's short and is the one with the broken neck and the origin of the 'Crippler' nickname*

Chris Benoit vs. Al Snow
ECW Double Tables (04.02.95)
*very good match, pretty much a brutal 15 minute squash*

Chris Benoit vs. Eddie Guerrero
WCW Monday Nitro (16.10.95)
*haven't seen it, but I hear there's a powerbomb that's as sick as the one Benoit gave Otani at around the same time*

Chris Benoit vs. Kevin Sullivan
WCW Great American Bash (16.06.96)
*very good brawl that has lost some luster over time, was raved about when it happened*

Chris Benoit vs. Booker T
Best-of-Seven Finals, Great American Bash (14.06.9
*this series was ok, and probably about as good as Booker T ever got. I don't know how much better this one is than the rest of those matches*

Chris Benoit vs. Bret Hart
Owen Hart Tribute Match, WCW Monday Nitro (04.10.99)
*excellent, emotional match*

Chris Benoit vs. Sid Vicious
World Heavyweight Championship Match, WCW Souled Out (16.01.00)
*on for historical purposes as BEnoit wins the title and subsequently leaves the company the next day, match is ok considering his opponent*

Chris Benoit vs. William Regal
Brian Pillman Tribute Show, (26.05.00)
*some absolutely great sequences in this one, a gem from that timeframe*

Chris Benoit vs. Kurt Angle
Steel Cage Match, WWE Raw (11.06.01)
* I almost cringe watching it now because of the risks of both coming off the cage (headbut and moonsault respectively). It was a very good cage match.*

Chris Benoit vs. Kurt Angle
WWE Championship Match, Royal Rumble (19.01.03)
*probably the best match of Angle's career(that or the SummerSlam '01 one with Austin)

Chris Benoit vs. Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels
World Heavyweight Championship Match, Wrestlemania XX (14.03.04)
*best threeway I've ever seen and being in the Garden, the most emotional wrestling experience I've ever been a part of, the proverbial top of the mountain for Benoit*


-Paul Jacobi-

I can't wait to hear the Commentary looks awesome!

No Coach = No Sale

looks good but I was hoping for the Benoit vs. Austin match from Smackdown where Austin took 10 Germans

I saw the 1st 2 words of this thread title and I thought the next 6 would be Training Camp with the Baltimore Ravens.
