I think WWE is pretty good with rights nowadays, since the DVDs of NWO '08 and Royal Rumble '08 actually utilize the theme songs, but on the DVD for Survivor Series '03, they replaced the awesome theme with generic wwe music.

I picked up another TNA Best of Raven at an FYE, thinking it was the alternate version that I didn't have. It ended up being the same cover, but this was a 2 disc set instead of the 1 disk that I already had. Everything is 100% identical with the cover arts. I have the same situation with the reissued version of Best of the X-Division Volume 1. I have a 1 disk and 2 disk with the exact same covers. And no, I'm not talking about the ShopTNA exclusives. Does anyone have any info on why there are single disk and 2 disk version of these, and if any more titles have this?

I remember in 2005 all the TNA DVDs (ppvs and best of) were single disc starting with Hard Justice 2005.
I hated how they put the countdown show with the show itself instead of putting it as an extra in certain ppv, since the quality were terrible and very pixelated. I am glad they stopped doing that.

^Nice. I hope that Global iMPACT! DVD somehow makes its way to retail racks.
I was sick most of this weekend, but on Saturday morning I finally found the HOF 2004 DVD used at FYE. Not bad for $12. Heenan's rant on the other WWF was amazing, lol. I've been waiting to watch the Patterson/Slaughter street fight for sometime now, too.
On my way out, I saw some DVD boxes advertising the Hardyz DVD and the WM24. Apparently, the FYE exclusive for WM24 is that it comes with a signature moves book of some kind, but it seems like there's no bonus at FYE for the Hardyz's DVD.
Any news on the other retailers' exclusives for 'Mania? I know Walmart has the McMahon 2-disc set packaged in a 2-pack, but what about Circuit City or Best Buy? (Sames goes for the Hardyz'...)

I stopped at the local used DVD store in town here just to browse around, and couldn't believe it. I was right near the end of the DVDs and I saw that they had No Way Out 2007, and I pulled it out, and it was the Blockbuster exclusive version! So I can finally add it to my collection at the amazing price of $6.97!

Stopped by the used place next to my work today and found some nice pickups. Plus if you buy 4 at this place you get the 5th item free so it ran about 7 bucks an item for all this

I live in Manitoba, Canada. There must be a few people selling their collections cause I've been finding most my stuff in two places lately the place next to my work which has rarely had anything wrestling until the last couple weeks. And then there's another place all the way across town which has had lots of stuff for the past few months.
In other news more of my ebay pickups arrived today they were Summerslam 05, Survivor Series 06 and Armageddon 06. So now all I need to complete my ppv's from 2002-Current are:
Royal Rumble 2002
King Of The Ring 2002

I've never really gotten lucky at any of these used movie places until tonight. I'll take a picture in the morning just to ward off anybody that doubts what I got, but at Moviestop earlier I picked up used copies of The Best of America's Most Wanted, The Ultimate X Collection, and the first version of the Best of NWA-TNA Title Matches.
They were each $3.99 and Moviestop was having a Buy 3 get one free sale on used DVDs, so my wife actually picked up another DVD with these (I believe XMas with the Cranks or something) and paid about $12 and change.
I have no idea if these are really worth anything, I couldn't find any auctions on EBay, but I know I've never seen them before. I didn't even know that an Ultimate X Collection existed, so I'm pretty stoked to watch that one.

What Moviestop location was this?
I live in Florida and there are a few MovieStops and every time I stop in or call they say they DON'T carry wrestling DVDs.

Does anyone know if there are two versions of Instant Classic: Best of Christian Cage DVD?
I read a review online and the guy listed the Cage/Rhino/Angle match from iMPACT in Sept/2007 that went 45 minutes included in the DVD. But my copy doesn't have that, is it an easter egg or mistake or possibly TNA silently releasing another version? not sure what the deal is.
I was hoping they include that match on the Best of 2007 DVD but they didn't.

They very well may have snuck out another release. The back of my dvd says that it contains 7 matches and that match isn't listed. At TNA's website, the listing says 8 matches and it is included. Not sure what to make of this...

It's possible that the Christian Cage DVD contains "footage" of the three-way match from iMPACT!, as in..."highlights." Originally, the Best of 2007 DVD was going to be 2 discs and have that match, but the final release still has some pretty good stuff.
