...In the early 1990's wrestling was in danger of becoming boring with all the old pro's in WCW not wanting to let the next generation step up and show what they could do and the WWF loaded with lame gimmicks, when Paul Heyman took over a small Philadelphia based company known at the time as Eastern Championship wrestling.

Advantages: Easy to navigate, full of excellent five star matches
Disadvantages: Not enough DVD extra's, the event is split over 2 discs

The event also has a woman's title match, the father v son match between Vince & Shane McMahon, a gimmick battle royal with 20 old-time... Read review
