by Draven Cage on 26 September 2010 The Undertaker, arguably the most enduring wrestling character in the history of the business, has had more match types associated with him than any other wrestler, so it seems fitting that a DVD set honouring those has been put together. The main problem is that because of his current persona, the BikerTaker period of his career is overlooked, which is a shame because, for me, the “Big Evil” phase of that portion was the best work Undertaker had ever done...

by Draven Cage on 1 September 2010 Covering the time-period of Backlash 2009 until WrestleMania XXVI, this covers what many is considered the WWE calendar year (much like April 1st to March 31st is the financial year) and features fifteen complete matches taken from the hundreds of bouts contested over the 12 months...

by Draven Cage on 17 August 2010 Seeing as this is simply the RAW, Smackdown, ECW and Superstars television broadcasts, most of the people reading this review will have already seen them. The same argument can be made for the PPV releases, but it’s virtually unheard of to release a single episode of the weekly televised wrestling show for the DVD market. Of course, these are no ordinary shows... these are the “Live in the UK” broadcasts...

by Draven Cage on 8 August 2010 In front of over 72,000 people, the (actual) 25th Anniversary of WrestleMania was a better show than the previous year's effort (which is essentially viewed as having only one saving grace – HBV v 'Taker I), with more than half of the matches being really good, the rest being alright... and one easily walking away with title of “Worst! WrestleMania! Match! Ever!” - thank you Comic-Book Guy...

by Dante Spears on 7 August 2010 2005’s ‘Are We There Yet? Tales from the Never Ending Travels of WWE Superstars’ was a book that I rather enjoyed. Wrestling is of course famous for the rigorous travel schedule and the Superstars themselves have reputations of being a boisterous bunch so mixing the two elements together guaranteed a hit. What we got was exactly that – it wasn’t complex, long or even a thought provoking read but it was pretty enjoyable. Five years later we have ‘Rumble Road: Untold stories from Outside the Ring’ can it live up to its predecessor?

by Draven Cage on 28 July 2010 Following on from the TLC and Hell in a Cell pay-per-views, this was yet another event named after the match that headlines it. The February PPV, much like the Royal Rumble (an event named after the main match since it began over 20yrs ago), has an advantage over the first two events as it's been home to the Elimination Chamber matches for the previous two years, meaning the event is already associated with them rather successfully...

by Draven Cage on 25 July 2010 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...

by Draven Cage on 15 July 2010 Bret Hart is back in the warm bosom of WWE and, since everything is hunky-dory, we get ourselves a new three-disc look at not only “The Hitman,” but also the entire Hart Family. This is both the DVDs biggest strength and greatest weakness. It's a strength because there's going to be a wealth of information on those members not called Bret or Owen, but a weakness because, quite frankly (and not to be disrespectful), very few are going to be interested in the those members not called Bret or Owen...

by Draven Cage on 7 June 2010 Two years ago, WWE released a three-disc collection on The Heartbreak Kid and it was very, very good. That, for a lot of people, would make a second three-disc set redundant... but not Shawn Michaels. The sit-down interview with Michael Cole covers a lot of topics and you get the feeling that both men are genuine friends with the way the interact, laughing and joking around as they do. The actual wrestling content, for the most part, is new stuff, with some familiar opponents, but unfamiliar or forgotten matches...

by Draven Cage on 23 May 2010 He’s the Shaman of Sexy, the Friday Night Delight. John Morrison is one of WWE’s best and brightest rising stars, having held numerous tag team championships, first as part of MNM and then with The Miz. He’s also had great solo success, earning the ECW and Intercontinental championships...
