Vegeta Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 I would be very suprised if they did include the Benoit match, but it does look like a DVD I will be picking up anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zep81 Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 I would be very suprised if they did include the Benoit match, but it does look like a DVD I will be picking up anyway. Â Wonder what editing will occur with this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members JNLister Posted November 13, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted November 13, 2013 Normally you'd think they could get away with editing out any favourable commentary lines, then cutting away as soon as the final bell goes. However, I don't know how comfortable they'd be ending the match with the crossface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hallicks Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I'd be very surprised if WWE were using a film intermediate or anything like telecine to create an effect on old videos. They'd more likely just slap a film look filter on stuff. Â They do use pan and scan (well, tilt and scan) style cropping on old footage to make it look widescreen in the documentaries, but for the matches on the extras, I think they just put black borders on the sides. Â I rewatched the Austin documentary recently, must have been a bit drunk when I watched it the first time to think there was any TK going on. Â Does Triple H come across as having a Jesus complex as insinuated by his "Thy Kingdom Come" DVD coupled with his "King of Kings" moniker? Maybe he could get Motorhead to cover the Millenium Prayer for the final nail in the crucifix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members JNLister Posted November 18, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted November 18, 2013 WWE have confirmed that, contrary to the description of the DVD, the WMXX main event isn't on the set at all: http://www.wrestlingdvdnews.com/wwe-clarif...noit-dvd/54614/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingOfMetal Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Not suprising at all really. When the synopsis was released, people on news sites were convinced that this was WWE finally putting his matches back onto DVDs regularly, completely jumping the gun. Benoit is never coming back to WWE media in a positive fashion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members JNLister Posted November 19, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted November 19, 2013 Just watched the 50th anniversary DVD. In the two hour documentary, there's 28 seconds on Steve Austin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheShowOff Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Just watched the 50th anniversary DVD. In the two hour documentary, there's 28 seconds on Steve Austin. Â That's why I like everybody on good terms with the WWE, you tend to get a true reflection on what they mean to a company and more balanced films, books etc. Goldberg was one of the biggest stars on the last century and he is barely mentioned by the WWE. Batista was one of the biggest stars of the last decade: same thing. I remember when the WWE would pimp Snuka as their icon in the 90's when Hogan was off making the big bucks with Turner. The only time he's mentioned these days is when Mick Foley decides to repeat stories for the millionth time or his daughter hits a rubbish looking splash from the top rope. WWE really is a "what have you done for me lately" company, sadly. It's always been the case and likely always will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Pitcos Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 I can't tell whether that's just a bad set, or whether the PPVs have been so nondescript this year. Cena vs Bryan, Triple H vs Brock in the cage, and Ziggler vs Del Rio are the only ones I'd have as definites for a Best Of 2013 DVD. I suppose you have to put Undertaker's WrestleMania match on every year as well. Beyond that, though, it should be a better crop. I don't know if that's just the best of a bland lot.
