I wouldn't be surprised if they end up using the match from the second night of that double shot which was joe and Low Ki vs Kobashi and Homicide, and not THE Joe vs Kobashi match.

maybe we'll see a dragon vs nigel match on 'greatest rivalries.

Yep, I was correcting myself that I originally had said he died on the operating table, but he died from a clot after the surgery. I didn't know that flying had anything to do with it, but either way it was pretty crappy. I enjoyed his matches with Lance Storm in ECW.

Okay, now I'll get back on topic so the mods stay happy:

...DVDs are round and shiny and awesome! :D2:

hey you were looking for the knockout dvd right? pm me if that was you.

Now that they've released all of the "In Your House" pay-per-views as tagged classics, does anyone know if they plan on releasing them in the states possibly as a box set like Wrestlemania, Royal Rumble & Summerslam? I would hate to imagine how much blurring those dvds would have. Appreciate any info ya'll might have.

BullGooseLoony 05-08-08 07:00 AM

A SummerSlam anthology is being released this August, I'm assuming in one giant box-set and then in four seperate sets of five.

The issue there is which "In Your House" event would you go up to?. I believe the events were stopped being called In Your House in 1998, but you could argue that every Unforgiven, No Mercy etc up to the present could be included.

Going back to the old Tagged Classics debate, they are merely VHS re releases on a DVD with no extras unless the original VHS or DVD release contained extras. I would probably say there is a slim chance of any In Your House style DVD box set at present and I suspect WWE will concentrate on releasing a Survivor Series and perhaps King Of The Ring DVD set in the future.

BullGooseLoony 05-08-08 07:47 AM

Technically, the very last ppv with any hints of the "IYH" in the title was "Backlash" in 1999, which had the "IYH" after the main title.

Dave88 05-08-08 09:05 AM

The last In Your House was Backlash 1999. So soon we should see Fully Loaded 1999 come with Unforgiven 1999 etc, unless they do Fully Loaded 1999/2000, Unforgiven 1999/2000 and so on.

We will have to wait and see though.

Off topic here but does anyone want a original WWF DVD of Royal Rumble 2001? My mate gave me his copy and I already have it, I'm currently looking for Judgment Day 2001 on DVD. PM me if interested

Are you serious? LOL!

I just bought it in a large lot and paid what worked out to about 20-30 dollars for it. Still a good deal, but it's funny that I was whining about needing that one for so long and then it shows up again.

Maybe Gabe at ROH could hear me complaining through telepathy...

Thanks for the news. I just placed an order for Arena Warfare and another long OOP title, Steel Cage Warfare. A part of me wanted to wait for the next buy 3 get 1 sale, but I'm worried they might go back OOP. Which probably won't happen, but better safe then sorry.

It seems like those are the only 2 titles they brought back, I believe At Our Best was OOP for a while as well. They mentioned something in there business update that they were re-releasing some long OOP titles. I hope Final Battle '05, Fate of an Angel and New Frontiers make there way back.

espin 05-08-08 10:42 PM

ROH has a 15-20% off sale on too. I'm thinking of grabbing some more 2002 shows as they are already 15 bucks at regular price and then 20% off would help...

ROH owns me... :bow:

Yeah just finished ordering a few from 2002 and Arena Warfare. Unfortunately the last 3 that I need for 2002 are all OOP.

Rypro 525 05-09-08 12:47 AM

holy shit, arena warfare and the show after that for me. From reviews i have read its a 1 match show w/ Shelley and Dragon too, but hell, ive wanted to see that show for a while. Hell, since my milestone collection is now complete, now i get to watch all of them back to back!

Aand i just spurged on a buy 3 get one free w/ the 2 orlando shows, the first anniversery show (mainly to see what the hyped riot was about) and death before dishonor 1 which has the one and (thankfully) only apperience of Jeff Hardy botching spots left and right and all of the fans booing the hell out of him.

dadaluholla 05-09-08 07:52 AM


the first anniversery show (mainly to see what the hyped riot was about)
The riot really sucks, but it's a fantastic show overall.

Was the riot a work or a shoot? I've watched it and it kinda felt like a work to me...

Although, Joe does punch some fan pretty hard...lol

The DVD is worth owning. The London/Ki/AJ match is a lot of fun!

The Tin will be exclusive to F.Y.E, the rest of the chains will only have 2 versions, The 3 disc and the 2 disc blu-ray

shacmasta 05-09-08 07:20 PM

Picked up a few upcoming releases a few weeks early.

SuperBatMan 05-09-08 07:23 PM

So the regular DVD is widescreen. Weird.

ShadyLPete 05-09-08 07:23 PM

Wow, even the DVD for Wrestlemania is in Widescreen. Finally! Plus, what are the odds of Backlash coming out on Blu-Ray?

BullGooseLoony 05-09-08 07:32 PM

Nice pics. Is it just me, or does the text on the back of WM 24 look like it was printed on CD-cover-making software? I like the gold brim at the top, too.

The "tagged classics" are a nice surprise for us in the states (especially since they're not exclusive to K-mart), but I wish they'd started with higher quality events. If this was RR and NWO from 2002, I'd be sold. But RR '03 was good only for Angle/Benoit, and NWO '03 was good only for Rock/Hogan II. Backlash '03 was one of the laziest shows I'd ever seen (Goldberg/Rock had marquee value, but it was slow), and the less said about Judgment Day '03, the better.

CaseyB 05-09-08 10:32 PM

Congratulations, shacmasta! Have you watched the Hall of Fame yet? Are the 4 hour intact? Thanks in advance.

DiedLaughing 05-09-08 10:48 PM

The entire Hall of Fame is included.
The tin case also looks very cool in person, although there is no sticker
indicating that it is an exclusive. There is a slip over part that is similar to
the Royal Rumble tin, that features the same basic cover as the reg. dvd.
