Surprisingly the Summerslam Anthology has hardly any edits on themes in the earlier ones. They even have that jingle used in 88 and 89 that is now well known as the Royal Rumble theme in the early 90s which was dubbed in the RR Anthology.
Looking forward to the Survivor Series anthology.

I notice they have Summerslam Anthology Vol. 1 & 2 both for sale on March 10, 2009. I'm curious to see if they're going to keep the same disc packaging as the original anthology sets?
Was anyone else Kane dvd all scratched up too?

All 3 discs of my Kane DVD have scratches but they're pretty light.

All those dubs on the Rumble set makes me glad I have them all (more or less) from the ppv or original commercial. 'Tis a shame, because like with the Mania sets, uncut DVD versions of all the shows would be awesome. I bought the Legacy VHS set because of this preference.

Can someone explain why exactly the Kane and SummerSlam DVDs get scratched in the packaging. I was actually thinking about getting the Kane set and Vol. 1 of SS, but I really hate scratches.

Heres a pic of the Summerslam set from amazon. The Kane set is packaged the same way. The Edge DVD however is in a regular digipack so thats fine.

Has anyone who has visited Fye and Best Buy recently noticed if they still are carrying the Booker T and AJ Styles Cross The Line covers? I heard they were very limited and I have not been able to get them as of yet.

Correct. Booker T is at FYE and AJ is at Best Buy. I've been trying to locate someone who stumbles across each of them in great condition. Much like all of the TNA box sets, anything I find is always dented and beat up.

Picked up the Ultimate Fan Edition of the Edge DVD just 2 hours ago.
The contents are the DVD itself (no duh), A Topps Trading Card, a Skull Cap, and a Collectible Coin.
