Which one? There's three released under the WWF name (1999, 2000, 2001)

They all go for $15-30 basically.

I got SummerSlam 2000 & 2001 from a friend for free but I saw SummerSlam 1999 once at my local store for about £15 which is quite cheap considering how rare it might be to find it nowadays..

Summerslam 1999 on DVD is among the easiest to collect. I regularly see it go for the price of £7 - £9 on ebay.

Now that we've got a Perfect cover, let's hope we get the official match listing soon.

Oh, and I just noticed this from Big Vision Entertainment...it's the FUNK U DVD CLUB!

It's ALMOST perfect. It would be perfect if it were a 3-5 disc set. How does WWE give Cena a 3 disc set and Curt Hennig a 2 disc set? He's a legend for chrissakes and I'll guarantee you that they have more than enough footage for a 3 disc set. Mr. Perfect is one of my all time favorite wrestlers. I hope this set includes all of the Mr. Perfect vignettes.

I agree that Hennig deserves at least 3 discs but unfortunately, we'll have to settle for two. The reason Cena and Mysterio get 3 discs is because the kiddies love them. Cena and Mysterio's discs will sell steadily whereas the Hennig set will probably have a big week or two and then drop out of sight. For the most part, I'd imagine very few people outside of hardcore wresting fans even know who Curt Hennig was.

Nice line up! I was wondering if they were going to have a bunch of apes or guys in monkey suits running around randomly in a ring, but I'm pleasantly surprised! Definitely will pick it up.

See this is what Vince needs to get into his steroid (allegedly) lined head. You know those little Hulkamaniacs who were behind the boom of the 80s...they've groven up now and many of them are getting to the point that they'll buy anything that reminds them of their youth. They are the ones who boo the hell out of Cena and respect but don't really go gaga over Mysterio. Re: Curt Henning... They could fill a 2 disc set just from his AWA footage. One disc alone could be his tag matches with his dad and Scott Hall and Disc Two could be from his run as World Champion. A 3 disc set would really be appropriate with a documentary/interview bits on Disc 1, AWA stuff n Disc 2, and WWF stuff on Disc 3. Of course Vince has almost gone out of the way to spit and kick dirt on the AWA legacy so we'll be lucky to see 2-3 AWA matches. (Just compare the AWA revisionist history DVD where they basically make Verne look like an incompetent fool compared to the WCCW DVD.) Yeah...as someone who grew up in AWA territory, you could say I get a bit bitter when stuff like this comes up.

Have you ever seen Undertaker: The Phenom or Austin vs. McMahon in that spot? I'd be interested in those.

Is it the US or Canadian version? If not, then I'm not interested in it.
