A ten-year anniversary set has been heavily rumored, which would make perfect sense for next year. The great thing about a SD set is that it probably wouldn't have matches that have been overused, unlike some RAW matches in DVD sets. I'd love to see some Rock/Austin/HHH stuff from '99-'01, some Hogan stuff from '02, Angle/Lesnar/Big Show stuff from '03, matches with Batista from late '05, just about anything from '07, and maybe some HHH/Hardy/MVP stuff from this year. A good three-disc set has a LOT of potential.

- Sunrise Records will have the SD tribute as a bonus disc
i liked the RAW one simply because of the emotional beginning with all the superstars on the stage and Vince at the front.
SD was good as well, Benoit vs. HHH was pretty good but too bad they cut that match out.

You might be right. The legal ramifications of a DVD which is partially capitalizing on someone's death (let's face it, Owen Hart was great, but his death made him sadly unique) could be great. But if they handled the way they did the Bret DVD, making it mostly a bio, with some stuff on his death, it could be a success. What matches do you think would be featured?

i like owen hart but i think theres a few superstars in front of him who deserve a dvd before he does, im not saying he doesnt but what about a macho man, jericho, or even a bret hart part 2 dvd before owen
i like owen but never thought he was as good as bret, lots of fans say he was, but i dont see it, bret could have a 5 star match with almost anybody and tell a story, owen was good but maybe a notch or two down from bret
by the way does it matter if harts family never wanted a dvd of him, wwe owns his entire career library and if they do a documentry they would get all the superstars to talk about them, theres nothing the harts could go is there??
and what was the deal with bret and his family, i heard there were a few of his family members he never talked to, does anybody have the backstory to this?

I can't wait for that Flair shoot to start shipping. I went all out and ordered the 4-disc set with an autograph.
I placed my order the morning it was first available, and the autograph was only $20 at that time. Woohoo!

I wish they included Sid vs. Scott Steiner from 2000 and Bret Hart vs. Goldberg from 99 just for historical purposes.
Also Benoit vs. Jarrett from 99 in the Ladder match was awesome too, that match was suppose to be included in the Ladder match DVD but for some reason it was cut (before the whole Benoit incident).
