Edge: A Decade of Decadence - Dec. 23

Also for people in Canada, i just found out that there will be 2 store exclusives for the Eddie Guerrero DVD. Best Buy will have a RAW Exclusive bonus disc and also Sunrise Records will a SMACKDOWN Exclusive bonus disc. No details on what they will include.

Pretty cool that Canada will finally get store exclusives since US always gets them.
I can add the following to those listed:

Macho Man Randy Savage set: Macho Madness: 11/18/08
2 disc Sting set on 12/09/08

Was any one else upset with the last minute of summerslam DVD?
The Live Broadcast of Summer Slam did not have any of that stupid editing at the very end with Edge and Taker match, but the DVD did and it was a annoying and bad it made the entire moment feel out of place and unpleasant.

Be very prepared this is an Extremely Limited and #d set!

One is RARE (in terms of manufacturing #d) but both are #d!!!

Can we safely assume the rare one will be the Kane one since he is far less popular of a character than Taker.

Apart from that, it was very good on his AWA career, the outtakes from his early skits, his IC Title run etc. I'd recommend it to any old-school wrestling fan. Gets a ****1/2
Thanks for the review, Dave88. I was always a big Mr. Perfect fan.

I've finally finished most of my pre-WWE/early 2002 WWE DVD collection. I have a few DVDs coming my way in the next week, but I still need a few rarer releases. If anybody has these, please PM me:

- Vengeance 2002
- King of the Ring 2002

and less importantly:
- Divas Tropical Pleasure

That bad Gamestop employee must've come from the same gene pool that Vince Russo came from.

Also, that giant Highspots...thing behind Flair looks absolutely horrid.

just got done the mr perfect dvd, kind of a letdown, it was ok but the match selection was something to be desired, and the documentry was only 1 hour long

why not release the wargames match when curt turned on flair, that match was awesome and the whole curt- joining the nwo gave the nwo a little life when it was still at its best, and what about when he won the us title the next night on nitro, i love bret-curt matches but there summerslam match was plenty enough

or how bout the match jerry lawyer said was his all time favorite he had with mr perfect

i wish vince would get over his grudges with macho man and wcw, its a huge library he has and he uses it not that much unless its for his big superstars

for example for why release a jericho 3 disk dvd covering his whole career instead of a kane one, i love kane but come on

p.s. the match curt had that was the 60 min draw was really good, never knew anything about that match but that was the highlight for me on the dvd

What Memphis DVD's are coming out? Grew up watching CWA/USWA so this intrigues me a lot...

Why do you hate highspots? I just ordered the 3 disc Flair set from them. Should I be worried about something?

I don't think you should be worried, I've placed several orders with them without incident.

I haven't ordered from Highspots in a few years...but I seem to recall them charging a lot for shipping & handling.
