The Not So 'Great' American Bash...

Advantages: A couple of awesome matches saved this one big time
Disadvantages: Too many silly storylines and a bad main event = an overall rubbish PPV!

...storied history; back when the WWE bought out rival company World Championship Wrestling during the early part of this century, WWE Chairman, Vince McMahon, also purchased the rights to all of WCW's names and likenesses. The problem is that fans are now offered the chance to buy 16 pay per views a year rather than the standard monthly spectacles and the Bash - as it's now commonly known as - started out as a National Wrestling Alliance event before ...
...has, in recent times, offered WWE enthusiasts a great array of tag team matches and Cruiserweight bouts. I appreciate that the speeches on Smackdown sometimes aren't as Soap Opera like as Raw's (which is a good thing) and that the pyrotechnics aren't quite as pretty but Smackdown, if given the right direction, could be a far superior brand to Raw because of the different elements and styles of wrestling on show. However, this Smackdown only pay ...

An okay event that I did purchase, but I only bought it because I am a collector, not because it’s anything special.

Really WWE Unauthorized?

Advantages: Ummm...Nice packaging, cheap and easy on screen navigation
Disadvantages: Most of the information on this 'documentary' is incorrect, bias commentators

...the stacks of boring, predictable WWE pay per views and events that stood out merely for it's name and caption alone - 'WWE Unauthorized' which apparently is 'totally unofficial and uncensored!'. Liking the sound of it and its supposedly dark and shady topics masked by the WWE for o so long, I paid and went on my merry way home to test the DVD's theory of being just that. CONTENT & COMMENTATORS The DVD is made up of six sections, chronicling the ...
...with some of the top WWE stars of the time, gives his frank and cynical view of the 'entertainment' value of wrestling, which is by far the most entertaining of all the commentators' opinions. However, he does have a very bias spin on the whole thing and as the co-author of the book 'Broken Harts: The Life and Death of Owen Hart', it could be seen that he has an extremely narrow focus on here and his presence is merely to shoot the company down at ...
