I was hoping for more matches from the FALL as opposed to the RISE. They could make a three disc set trying to explain Bischoff/Russo’s booking desicions those last couple years, and I’d buy it. This set, not so much. Matches that have already been released on other DVDs, very dissapointing. Didn’t Hogan/Flair wrestle 100,542 times in WCW and they pick the match that’s already been realeased??? Chi-Town Rumble is on the first Flair set if I’m not mistaken. The Wargames would be cool, except I hunted down that WWE-NWO DVD already with the one they picked. What about the other Wargames? Haven’t they only released 3 of them? WTF?

I think we need a Wargames DVD.

According to WWE Classics On Demand, he’s never been unmasked. He just got a kick-ass blur style mask in 99. I’ve been trying to get a replica, but they don’t sell them anywhere.

It seemed to be made out of that stuff WCW fans used to make signs out of.

Hey now! The 2 of 3 falls match is something like 55 minutes long but their rubber match at the Music City Showdown is only 30 minutes! They’re TOTALLY different! :p

Don’t worry, I’m sure it’d be about the same as their other matches.

*hides*

Just kidding.

Yes it is. I’ve heard that they had a hell of a match in the latter part of ‘84, maybe they could have put that on there. I’m sure the big DVD collectors wouldn’t mind. If it’s gotta be ‘89, perhaps there was something else, such as a house show you mention. One can hope.

Wasn’t Chi-Town Rumble Flair-Steamboat on the Greatest Wrestling Stars of the ’80s DVD? I’m at work so I can’t go grab my set and check but I’m 90% sure. If so, I wonder if WWE could be surprising us and pulling some rare Steamboat-Flair match from the archive? Maybe a house show? Odds are low, I know, but after seeing things like the Rockers phantom title win and that random DiBiase vs. Bret match you just never know what they’re going to pleasantly surprise us with.

Not to mention the ‘92 Wargames, which was all kinds of awesome. I keep wondering what the hell they’re holding it back for.

And the documentary has the potential to be anywhere from all kinds of wonderful, to a burial job that makes one want to cry. It’s a real crapshoot.

Whew. You guys had me scared there for a minute. Almost thought that WWE had rewritten history or something.

No worries, that was Rey Mysterio JR … I dont think he’s been seen wrestling since the fall of WCW. Well, maybe somewhere in Mexico.

“Some of the Cruiserweight stuff from 01 would work (Helms, Chavo, Rey) if not for the fact that Rey was unmasked.”

WHAT?!@? Rey unmasked??? Surely, that cannot be, for WWE has told me that Rey’s face has never been seen, and that if he unmasked, he could never wear it again.
