WWE - Summerslam 1990 And 1991 DVD

Advantages: brings back memories
Disadvantages: not brilliant

...this great team and also for the ones who know little about them here is a memento of wrestling's original "most dominant tag team" As with every other WWE profile DVD, this is split into two parts: a near two-hour long documentary-style feature, and a bunch of related matches, promos and videos. To save you all reading another essay, I'll just be looking over the documentary portion of the DVD here? After a "in memory of Hawk" graphic, the documentary opens in Minnesota,with Joe Laurinaitis (Animal) talking us through the beginnings of the Road Warriors team, starting with their training in the infamous "The Gym" in Minneapolis. While the DVD is mainly narrated by Animal and former manager Paul Ellering, there are several guest appearances on the DVD from the likes of Barry Darsow, Darren Drozdov ,Arn Anderson, Ric Flair, Jerry Lawler...

Advantages: Entertaining, 9 hours of footage, 21 of The Undertakers greatest matches
Disadvantages: I dont think that all of his greatest matches made it on to the DVD

Boasting being a 4 times WWE world champion, 6 times WWE Tag Team champion and a perfect 13-0 record at Wrestlemania, The Undertaker is by far the greatest WWE superstar to grace the famous squared circle. The 3 disk DVD covers The Undertaker's career from his debut in 1991 - 2004. Along the way The Undertaker has taken out many greats including Hulk Hogan, Mankind, Bret Heart and even the boss of the WWE Vince McMahon. With 21 of The Undertakers greatest matches and loads of interviews and match build ups, the 9 hours of footage is worth watching. Well being a wrestling and Undertaker fan myself I just had to buy this DVD. I'm sure many people will tell you and I do know this my self, the WWE and most other wrestling companies are fixed. The moves are not intended to injure... Read review

Advantages: Opening match, Angle vs. Guerrero, Benoit vs. Orton were all decent.
Disadvantages: Diva Dodgeball and to a lesser extent Cena vs. Booker & Undertaker vs. JBL were a waste of time.

...WWE SummerSlam 2004 was the seventeenth SummerSlam show, and as the second biggest show of the year for WWE, it was the culmination of several plots, and the continuation for others. ---- Just a quick note before I get started, it would really help if you knew at least the basics of wrestling prior to reading this, because it's more likely to make sense that way. It's also really difficult to explain to someone that doesn't understand it via watching it themselves, but basically - wrestling is predetermined. It's much more a show than a sport, but at the same time you can respect the athletic ability of the performers, because wrestling a match, making it look legit and portraying a character in the ring is a very difficult thing to do. All the matches are taped live in front of an audience, so if something goes wrong, it'll still... Read review
