WWF: Fully Loaded 2000 (2000) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)well this event could of been a little better but still good. It started out with the hardy boyz and lita against t@a and trish stratus (7/10). perry saturn against eddy gurrero was average 7/10. acolytes against edge and christian was a snooze fest 4/10. Kurt angle vs. undertaker was better than i expected 8/10. y2j against hhh in a last man standing was the best match 9/10. The main event was chris benoit against the rock in a pretty good match 8/10. I would pass on buying but it is good for a rent or two.

WWE - Undertaker - The Phenom (1998) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The matches:
*Note - These are just highlight reels, not the full matches.
-----------------
Undertaker vs. Mankind - Boiler Room Brawl (from SUMMERSLAM 1996)
Great match with two men beating the hell out of each other in a boiler room for minutes. The only thing more shocking that the ferocity these combatants unleashed upon each other is the betrayal at the end of the contest. ***1/2
Undertaker vs. Mankind - Buried Alive Match (from IYH: BURIED ALIVE 1996)
Another good match by both men, with shovels, steel chairs and steps used to hurt each other. ***1/2
Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels - Hell in a Cell (from IYH: BADD BLOOD 1997)
Fantastic match, where HBK and the Lord Of Darkness took brutality to another level. This well-remembered match also features the first ever appearance of the Undertaker's long-lost brother Kane. *****
Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels - Casket Match (from ROYAL RUMBLE 1998)
Once again a good match from two great competitors. Kane, who we all thought came out to help the Undertaker, actually attacked him. He and Paul Bearer then did one of the most shocking things ever done in WWF History. ***1/2
Undertaker vs. Kane (from WRESTLEMANIA XIV)
The two brothers met one-on-one for the very first time ever in this match. Kane wanted to destroy the Undertaker, and his fury was unleashed in this classic match. **1/2
Undertaker vs. Kane - Inferno Match (from IYH: UNFORGIVEN 1998)
Perhaps one of the most dangerous matches in the WWF happened in April 1998. This was probably thhe only way for these two brothers to settle their rivalry once, and for all. **1/2
Undertaker vs. Mankind - Hell in a Cell (from KING OF THE RING 1998)
Again, a very dangerous match was one of the only ways to finish their feud, the most hellacious structure ever devised. This is probably, or if not, definately, the most brutal and talked about match in wrestling history. The falls and bumps that Mankind takes are truly unbelievable. *****
Undertaker vs. Stone Cold (from SUMMERSLAM 1998)
Another classic between two fantastic superstars. The match includes one of the most devastating leg-drops in the history of the World Wrestling Federation. ***1/2
Undertaker vs. Kane vs. Stone Cold (from IYH: BREAKDOWN 1998)
Average match from three of the most awesome and destructive forces in the WWF. The only thing different, is the controversy at the end of the match. **1/4
Undertaker vs. Kane (from IYH: JUDGMENT DAY 1998)
The WWF Title was vacant at this time, and it was finally decided in this classic match between the two massive brothers. The Texas Rattlesnake, Stone Cold Steve Austin was the Special-Guest referee for the contest. **
----------------
This is a great video and is a must-have for any true Undertaker fan. I would rate it 8/10.

WWF: Judgment Day 2001 (2001) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Judgment Day certainly was the most aggressive ppv thus far for 2001. With the less than impressive Backlash getting stinker ratings, the WWF obviously tried to pick up the pace with Judgment Day, and they succeeded admirably. This was nothing short of an amazing ppv. The chain match, no holds barred match, tag team turmoil, hardcore match, and even the women's title match was a little impressive (if you pause it just right, you'll see a clear blooper on Chyna's outfit). All in all, excellent, solid, and entertaining. Here are the matches:
1. William Regal vs. Rikishi - great opener, Regal gets a stink face.
2. 2 OUT OF 3 FALLS (PINFALL, SUBMISSION, AND LADDER) Kurt Angle vs. Chris Benoit - another classic and runner up for best match of 2001
3. HARDCORE CHAMPIONSHIP Test vs. Big Show vs. Rhyno - solid and very hardcore, with an impressive gore from Rhyno.
4. WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP Chyna vs. Lita - good match, not as disappointing as Chyna's WrestleMania and Royal Rumble matches.
5. INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP CHAIN MATCH Kane vs. Triple H - very brutal, a classic with a good ending. This is another runner up for match of 2001.
6. TAG TEAM TURMOIL NO. 1 CONTENDER'S MATCH Acolytes vs. Radicalz vs. Dudley Boyz vs. X-Factor vs. Hardy Boyz vs. Chris Jericho & Chris Benoit vs. Edge & Christian - good match between seven great teams.
7. WWF CHAMPIONSHIP Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Undertaker - great main event, extremely brutal and entertaining No Holds Barred match. Get this tape as soon as its availible. Well worth the money. Hopefully, WWF will continue with more ppvs like these.

WF THE FACE OF FEAR UNDERTAKER Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I never even knew such a video existed. It looks totally amazing!!! Being a total WWE freak, and The Undertaker being my favorite superstar, this video has my name written all over it! I wish I could watch the video so I could give a proper review, but I know that anything involving 'taker is guaranteed to be AWESOME!!

WWE: Survivor Series Anthology, Vol. 1 - 1987-1991 (2009) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Well, after WWE has already released anthologies on their other 3 major events...it's time for the final one in their "Big Four" being the Survivor Series. This first Volume is from the early years of the event where the heavy focus was on strickly having tag team elimination matches with wrestlers teaming together based off common hatred for others on the opposite team...to the point where there is only one match on here that wasn't a tag team elimination match. Now keep in mind that I'm doing my reviews from either the VHS version with the unedited event or a replay I caught off WWE Classics On Demand.
1987 - This is going to be a treat for those who already have this event on video because if you remember, the VHS version was edited down to 2 hours there so here you get the full event. This was historic in many ways as this event marked the first ever Survivor Series and also the fact that this PPV ran on the same night as NWA's Starrcade event (which caused Starrcade to be bumped off many cable networks). The main event featured Andre The Giant, One Man Gang, King Kong Bundy, Butch Reed, Rick Rude vs. Hulk Hogan, Paul Orndorff, Don Muraco, Ken Patera, Bam Bam Bigelow that's remembered for it not only being the first time Hogan & Andre were in the ring for a match since WrestleMania III but the outstanding performance of Bigelow that puts a stamp on the label he's gotten as "one of the best 'big men' in wrestling." Also on here is the first ever 20 man tag team elimination match with 5 tag teams on each team & other matches feature Randy Savage, Jake Roberts, Ricky Steamboat, Brutus Beefcake, Jim Duggan vs. Honky Tonk Man, Hercules, Danny Davis, Ron Bass, Harley Race...and an all womens match featuring teams headed up by Faboulous Moolah & Sensational Sherri. There were only four matches here but each one went around 20 mins. (the tag went almost 40 mins.) and was all quality in their own right.
1988 - Just like the 1987 edition, the 1988 edition was also edited down on the VHS (only the tag team & main event were shown in full) so this is the first time it's been released unedited. The main event here was Mega Powers, Hercules, Koko B. Ware, Hillbilly Jim vs. Twin Towers, Ted DiBiase, Haku, Red Rooster in a match that continued so many ongoing feuds (Hogan/Boss Man, Hercules/Dibiase) & storylines at that time (problems between Heenan & Rooster, the continued tease of jealously between Hogan & Savage over Elizabeth). Also on here was the final WWE appearence of the Dynamite Kid along with the PPV debut of Shawn Michaels in a 10 man tag team elimination match that's mostly memorable for what happened during the match between Mr. Fuji & Demolition & Powers Of Pain resulting in (to my knowledge) the first double turn in WWE history. Other matches include Rick Rude & Harley Race & Dino Bravo & Mr. Perfect & Andre the Giant vs. Jake Roberts & "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan & Tito Santana & Ken Patera & Scott Casey...Ultimate Warrior & Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake & The Blue Blazer & Sam Houston & Jim Brunzell vs. Honky Tonk Man & "Outlaw" Ron Bass & Greg "The Hammer" Valentine & "Dangerous" Danny Davis & Bad News Brown.
1989 - This was a Survivor Series first as this was the first time they started naming the teams. One of the main events was the Hulkamaniacs vs. Million $ Team which was real disappointing since the match seemed heavily one-sided (even Ventura pointing it out on commentary) and the main showdown that was being built up here between Hogan & Zues being the way it was (or wasn't, depending on how you want to look at it). The other main event was the Ultimate Warriors vs. The Heenan Family that's more remembered for the backstage story with Arn Anderson and, more importantly, Tully Blanchard that ended up seeing Bobby Heenan wrestling here instead of Blanchard...however this was a great showcasing of Anderson being the workhorse that older fans remember him for. Other matches include Roddy's Rowdies vs. Rude's Brood that was entertaining down the commentary where Jesse Ventura kept attempting to say the name of Piper's team but just couldn't get it right, Dream Team vs. Enforcers that was a solid match, and the King's Court vs. 4x4's in another solid match that was highlighted by the interaction with Randy Savage facing off against Bret Hart. The only real negative I can say here is that how the monster heels were eliminated in the main events were very disappointing.
1990 - This Survivor Series debuted three new ideas into WWE with one turning out to be one of the greatest superstars in the history of the WWE. One new idea WWE introduced here was that the surviving faces of the elimination matches would meet the surviving heels in a "Grand Finale Match Of Survival." Also during this PPV, a huge egg that was seen on WWE TV for weeks finally hatched (to the crowd's boos) to reveal the Gooblygooker (Hector Guerrero). One of the main events here featured The Warriors vs. The Pefect Team which saw the Demolition vs. Legion Of Doom fight that longtime WWE/NWA fans wanted to see. The other main event was the Hulkamaniacs vs. The Natural Disasters in a solid match. Other matches included the Vipers vs. the Visionaries where history was made as it was the first time an entire team survived, the Alliance vs. Mercenaries in a short one-sided match, and a match with the Dream Team vs. The Million $ Team that had an outstanding battle between Ted Dibiase vs. Bret Hart but more importantly, this PPV featured the dominate debut of The Undertaker. Another note to make on here is that eventhough Randy Savage didn't wrestle on the card, he did make an appearence for an interview.
1991 - The PPV had the nickname "The Gravest Challenge" in reference to the first ever non-elimination match as Hulk Hogan defended the WWF Championship against the then-undefeated Undertaker that saw Ric Flair make an appearence leading to Taker winning his first WWE Championship. The other main event on here was the Legion Of Doom & Big Boss Man vs. Natural Disasters & I.R.S. which was as good as you expected it to be with the bigger story being that after teasing Randy Savage of being reinstated & returning to the ring against Jake Roberts in this match...WWE decided to just remove Jake Roberts from this match and hold off their match for the "Tuesday In Texas" PPV reducing both men's roles on this show to just having an interview. This event also marked the WWE PPV debut of Ric Flair (pay REAL CLOSE attention to what belt he wears to the ring...you'll get a chuckle out of it) in the match of the night with Ted DiBiase, Mountie, Warlord vs. Roddy Piper, Bret Hart, British Bulldog, Virgil that was filled with comedy, brawling, and straight wrestling (with one very comedic moment between Piper & Sherri) that was only hurt by how the match ended. Other matches on here include "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan & Sgt. Slaughter & "El Matador" Tito Santana & "Texas Tornado" Kerry Von Erich vs. Colonel Mustafa & Hercules & The Berzerker & Skinner that was a one-sides squash with this becoming the second time an entire team survived....and Rockers & Bushwackers vs. Beverly Brothers & Nasty Boys that was all about the continued tease of problems between Shawn Michaels & Marty Jannetty. This edition of the Survivor Series was is easily the worst edition on this set as this PPV was really just an informercal to promote another PPV that WWE was having less than a week later. The two main attractions that people wanted to see for this event were nothing more than bait to have you turn into that event & WWF seemed to put more focus into that "Tuesday In Texas" event than their yearly tradition of Survivor Series because alot of the matches weren't as good in quality as the years before with some booking that just looked stupid in the end. At least watching this on tape years later, you know what these plot twist are & how the event shaped up afterall but this year's Survivor Series was just a plain disappointment.
So overall, if your a heavy fan of the elimination matches then this is the set for you to check out as the first three years were excellent quality while the 1990 edition was solid with some questionable booking when it came to some of the eliminations and the 1991 edition was weak minus the opening elimination match & Taker/Hogan for the WWE Title so I recommend this volume.
