I'm not sure if the Fan Favourites sets are a) scrapping the barrell or b) pandering to ultra-nerds who do "un-boxing" on youtube.

 

The only thing marginally interesting on there might be Lugar vs. El Matador in a strength vs. speed match, and despite a Bret/HBK match, unless its some kind of massive hidden gem thats never been released before (highly unlikely) wouldn't warrant any kind of repeat viewing

Is the Savage/Flair match on the Fan Faves set the title change that happened just before Bret took the belt from Flair?

 

No. It was taped in June 1992 and has a bullshit non-finish, IIRC. The only home release the title change features on is Year In Review 1992, which as we have discussed, will never be released on DVD.

The Bret/Michaels match is the same one featured on Invasion of the Bodyslammers and as an extra feature on the rivalry DVD. It's a good match apart from a bit of a disappointing finish. Sherri looks her slutty best. It's pipped however by the Hart/Fatu WWF title match. It's an OK tape. Perfect vs Taylor is decent. Undertaker/Bam Bam is notable for some cracking selling from Bigelow in the mold of "what do I have to do to beat this cunt." And you'll have a laugh at the Undertaker/Mountie match.

 

I had the 1995 one on video when I was a kid. The Owen/Neidhard Vs Bret/Bulldog match was very good.

 

It was decent enough. There are a couple of perplexing choices on that one. Luger/Tatanka is mind-numbingly boring, and there is ZERO suspension of disbelief in the Lawler/Undertaker casket match. Most of the decent matches come from TV, and the two best matches for me are the Kids matches with Owen from an episode of Action Zone, and a really good cat and mouse match with Yokozuna as Glads has illustrated.

 

I'd still get this if you can get it for a fiver.

Looking forward to Nitro Vol.2 (even if I've yet to get Vol.1 :laugh: ), Bret Unreleased (big Hitman mark), ECW Vol.2, War Games, Raw 20th Anniversary and History of WWE. Will definitely get all of these

 

Next tier down on the 'Might purchase if they're interesting/once they drop in price' are Foley, HHH, MSG, and possibly Goldberg.

Just seen this through Joey Styles' twitter account.

Intrigued by the Goldberg set, don't know what kind of relationship he has with WWE these days. Don't think it will be a Warrior-style hatchet job though.

 

War Games, Best of Nitro 2, ECW Unreleased 2 (listing pending), Best of MSG are the picks for me

Well I better get saving now then! A possible 12 sets I'd like to see there and finally a Best of War Games!

 

The definites are Best of Raw & SmackDown 2012, The Best of Nitro Volume 2, The Best of In Your House, ECW Unreleased Vol. 2, Best of MSG, Best of War Games & History of WWE.

 

The possibles are Mick Foley Biography, Goldberg, Money In The Bank 2013 (if it's anything like this year's an last years, in my eyes both were in the top two or three for best PPV of their year), Money In The Bank Anthology & Raw 20th Anniversary Box Set.
