iamthedoctor Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 I am so looking forward to this, even if we don't get Bret Hart vs Tom Magee. I am not expecting much in the way of hidden classics since most of these are probably sub 10-minute TV taping dark matches but I am still thinking this is just gonna be a bunch of matches that are plain fun. Im hoping these DVDs will have alot of matches on them because a Owen Hart vs jobber match cant be taking up more than 5 mins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyonthewall2983 Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Is this just DVD or will there be a Blu-ray as well? They put more stuff in on their Blu releases, which I kind of dig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Migs Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Is this just DVD or will there be a Blu-ray as well? They put more stuff in on their Blu releases, which I kind of dig. Some of the releases recently have been DVD only. I believe this might be one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamthedoctor Posted May 28, 2017 Report Share Posted May 28, 2017 This one would be interesting if they filmed it. Hogan, Savage & Steamboat vs Harts & Honky with Andre in their corner. Can't remember too many matches where Savage & Steamboat tagged up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Despite being promoted as consisting of matches "never before seen, new to home video", WrestlingDVDNetwork is speculating the MSG LOD/Warrior vs Demolition match will be on the set. I'm sure there are sources that have led them to believe that, but if true it is disappointing since not only was that on an aired MSG card (9/90), but it was already on a Coliseum release, SuperTape 3.

That would be a shame if true as the whole point in this collection is supposed to be matches that have never been seen before and not previously available on home video. That is what made Attitude Era unseen unique. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajtroma Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 There was a Bret Hart-Hakushi Cage match that I saw at a taping live that I'm hoping makes the cut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 Here it is! I'm most excited to see Duane Gill & Barry Hardy's match as "The Toxic Turtles." Other matches of note include Bret vs. Davey Boy from 6/30/92, Hogan vs. Flair from 11/91 (not the Dayton match, unfortunately), a test run of the WM7 blindfold match from January, Flair vs. Piper, a Piper's Pit with the Brooklyn Brawler from 1992 when there were plans to bring that back, and tryout/dark matches for Brian Adams (in '89), Chris Chavis as "War Eagle," the aforementioned Turtles, and the Tazmaniac. I'm sold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 On a disappointing note, Steiners-Money Inc. must not be in the vault or lost, because they have the dark match main event from that taping (MegaManiacs vs. Money Inc. with Slaughter as the guest ref) but not the title change that opened it.

Frankensteiner Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 I think the Bret/Anvil match (if the date is correct) is the only one that isn't from a TV taping. It took place in Montreal, same night as the Jacques Rougeau retirement match. I'm assuming that is the reason for the WWF having a camera crew there filming the show.

Matt D Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 I'm actually stupidly excited for a new Demolition vs Colossal Connection match. I love the MSG one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cap Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 Two Savage vs Warrior matches? I'm listening... Also, I actually really liked Savage vs Andre from the SNME set. Andre's supposed distaste for Savage comes through when he is clobbering him and Savage bounces around like a goddamned pinball. This looks pretty interesting on the whole. I am for it.

Robert S Posted June 15, 2017 Report Share Posted June 15, 2017 I have just realized that Jarret and Hall had 9 ladder matches on house shows against each other within 3 weeks or so. You don't really consider ladder matches as a house show gimmick. From what I have seen on History of WWE the only comparable thing is the HBK vs. Hall houseshow run in December 93 / January 94 (they had 8 ladder matches within a months; plus there were two Hall vs. IRS ladder matches, on in Dec. 93 and one in Feb. 94).

BBscout Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 Shawn/Bret vs Lawler/Hakushi was one of mine from the Grails thread. The first Flair-Piper too. Bret/Warrior vs Papa Shango/Kamala was another that was in the thread. Pretty cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 I didn't realize there was a Mr. Madness match on there too. That is so great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebrainfollower Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 Def a must buy but I am shocked by the lack of Macho Man vs. Undertaker honestly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
concrete1992 Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 As someone from CNY/UNY I am obligated to buy this set. Two matches from my city of Binghamton. Which makes 9 CNY/UNY matches in total. That's p good. P p good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 411mania posted a list of "Extras," more matches. Didn't clarify if it was for a Blu-Ray release or an extra retailer-exclusive disc. Most exciting for me is the match Mike Shaw had as The Mad Monk. We also get an extra Phantasio match, Hogan vs. Savage in a cage, Ultimate Warrior vs. Kamala, tryouts for the Harris Twins and Harlem Knights, and others.

Mad Dog Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 This will probably be the first WWE DVD I buy in maybe 8 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyonthewall2983 Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 Me too. I would hope that lots of people buy it so it creates a demand for more releases like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chief Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 The tryouts sound very interesting. I've been our of the loop with their home video for a few years now. Do they still do Blu-ray releases? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fxnj Posted June 17, 2017 Report Share Posted June 17, 2017 Def a must buy but I am shocked by the lack of Macho Man vs. Undertaker honestly. Also no Hogan/Jake and Bret/Magee. Hope they're holding out for future network collections or DVD releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
