But no thanks to be honest. Anyone who remembers pre-WWF wrestling in the UK on television is likely to be thinking of World of Sport wrestling on ITV. This DVD captures the best of that era. But after the last 15 years of Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, The Undertaker, Kurt Angle, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin to name just a few, the best of the ITV era is nothing to brag about.

With a few exceptions. The Dynamite Kid and William Regal appeared in ITV's wrestling. Even nWo founding member Scott Hall made a handful of appearances.

But this DVD concentrates on the likes of Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks. Big brutes of men who liked to throw their weight around. Don't expect any Chris Benoit or Eddie Guerrero (may he rest peacefully) wrestling classics, just big mean men in tights.

You might enjoy this DVD if you don't expect anything more than a laugh and, if you don't remember it all that fondly to begin with and don't mind your memory being tarnished, a giggle. But for some who really loved this back in the days before WWF/E going back to ITV wrestling could simply spoil what you remember.

However, it is certainly better than ITV's recent attempt at Celebrity Wrestling!!
