It's an unusual step considering that almost all of the other profile DVDs featured pre-WWE footage Austin HBK Flair Triple H Guerrero and Rey Mysterio all featured their early days so why this collection isn't the same is a mystery... http://www.wrestling101.com/101/article/WWEVD/1162/ WWE DVD Reviews http://www.wrestling101.com/101/article/WWEVD/1162/ Sun, 05 Jul 2009 19:17:00 -0400 Im back to take a look at the recently released CD Voices: WWE The Music Vol.9. The previous CDs have been surprisingly well compiled and some of the songs are my personal favourites. Will this latest offering be able to match the quality of the previous releases http://www.wrestling101.com/101/article/CDR/1160/ Wrestling CD Reviews http://www.wrestling101.com/101/article/CDR/1160/ Sat, 27 Jun 2009 19:07:00 -0400 I questioned in my review of The Second Coming where this bad boy had gotten to... in an erratic style reminiscent of the sadly passed PRIDE Fighting Championships during its existence FightDVD has indeed released DSE's initial Las Vegas soiree some months after giving their second a DVD berth.

Chances are you have already heard numerous stories about the Hardys personal lives if youve been remotely connected to WWE in the last 7 years or so. Their rise in the WWE to the top of the Tag Team Division their fall and eventual return with flourishing individual careers... http://www.wrestling101.com/101/article/Book/1151/ Wrestling Book Reviews http://www.wrestling101.com/101/article/Book/1151/ Sun, 07 Jun 2009 11:12:00 -0400 When this DVD collection was announced it immediately jumped to the top of my wish-list due to the era it would cover and the wrestlers it would focus on. So when I received the set in the post I couldn't wait to insert it into my DVD player press play and sit back to enjoy the era of wrestling that in my lifetime of watching this great sport was as good as wrestling could get... http://www.wrestling101.com/101/article/WWEVD/1150/ WWE DVD Reviews http://www.wrestling101.com/101/article/WWEVD/1150/ Wed, 03 Jun 2009 16:49:00 -0400 Breakthrough was to prove a prophetic title for the UFC's first ever visit to the state of Georgia on 6 September 2008. Whilst conventional wisdom had primary wrestler Rashad Evans as ideal fodder for Chuck Liddell's sprawl and counterpunch game thus putting the former 205lb champion on the fasttrack to a rematch for the strap Sugar Rashad's seemingly intangible inability to actually lose fights up to this point which coupled with the presence of strategic demi-god Greg Jackson in his corner who had previously mapped out Keith Jardine's route to victory over The Iceman meant a metaphoric breakthrough for the TUF 2 Heavyweight champion on this night was far from out of the question... http://www.wrestling101.com/101/article/UFCVD/1149/ Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) DVD Reviews http://www.wrestling101.com/101/article/UFCVD/1149/ Sun, 31 May 2009 16:39:00 -0400 Much like the imminent UFC 98 there was a tangible air of gypsy curse surrounding the UFC's July 2008 stop-off in London. The originally scheduled main event pit Chuck Liddell against Mauricio Shogun Rua before injury forced the Brazillian to withdraw. Rashad Evans was subsequently drafted in as a replacement but a graphic thigh injury suffered by Liddell sent that proposal the way of Global Hypercolour too. Furthermore the planned co-headliner of Michael Bisping vs Chris Leben would wind up atop UFC 89 in Birmingham after a brush with the stateside constabulary put paid to The Crippler's short term visa prospects... http://www.wrestling101.com/101/article/UFCVD/1147/ Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) DVD Reviews http://www.wrestling101.com/101/article/UFCVD/1147/ Fri, 22 May 2009 20:00:00 -0400 The Royal Rumble has always been one of the highlights of the wrestling calendar particularly since 1992 when the WWE title became the focal point of the match. In 1992 the winner Ric Flair won the vacated WWF Title in a fantastic match. From 1993 onwards the winner of the Royal Rumble has won himself the chance to challenge for the WWE Title at Wrestlemania... http://www.wrestling101.com/101/article/WWEVD/1146/ WWE DVD Reviews http://www.wrestling101.com/101/article/WWEVD/1146/ Sun, 17 May 2009 11:04:00 -0400 I received a very nice email from Tom Skowronski telling me that he enjoyed my reviews on Wrestling 101 and would I like to review the first ever DVD release from The Territory a TV show that highlights the talent around northern California.
