WWE Anthology

[Rypien 91]

Has anybody purchased this yet? I just bought the first set of Wrestlamania's 1-5 today. If you loved 80's WWF wrestling, you will love this. Every match is included on this disk. I am watching Wrestlemania 3 right now. I love some King Kong Bundy elbowing Little Beaver and "Hot Rod" Roddy Piper and Adrian Adonis duking it out, with the loser shaving his head. I can't wait to go through the other 4. If you have it, let me know what you think of it.

I have it. I bought the whole thing on Deep discount DVD.com for 125 bucks or so....

The old ones are great. As a wrestling nerd, I noticed a few things. Some of the entrance tunes are overdubbed with new stuff. I only notice it because I remember liking the Big Boss Man & Demolition as a kid, and their music is permanently in my head. At least the Million Dollar Man's music is still there.

You won't notice the other issue for a while. At wrestlemania XIV, there are noticeable blurs. Something about the lawsuit with the World Wildlife Fund, they have to blur out the WWF logo. I don't know why the old logo wasn't affected, but the new one was. I assume XV, XVI, and XVII will have the same problem (I think it was the WWE after that).

Neither one is real big deal, and it shouldn't stop anybody from buying it. Just don't watch the clunkers, like Wrestlemania nine.....

Is there something similar for the NWA?

I would love to see best of the real 4 Horsemen, Boogie Woogie Man, Road Warriors, etc.

I always like NWA better than WWF.

I was such a huge fan of Roddy Piper, I loved his match with "Mr. Wonderful" when they wrestled Hogan and Mr. T.

Piper's Pit was awesome.

best match ever was the Road Warriors scaffold match. I can't remember who they fought but it was awesome. Also the Old Sting/Flair matches were legendary!!
