Four discs of mostly horrible Undertaker matches, only two of which I've seen before? That $10.45 is burning a hole in my wallet!

 

[Miko]

Taker vs Warrior, Taker vs Mankind twice and Taker vs Batista are all matches I'd happily watch again, the rest meh. I'll never forgive him for all those shit matches vs Austin we had to endure though. Shit matches with Austin should be impossible.

 

[Master JM]

''Deadliest Matches'' is right. Watching some of these nearly robbed me of the desire to live. Kama? Kamala? MABEL?

 

[FunKay the Inevitable]

I've got Buries Them Alive froma re-release in 2004. It's hosted by Ted DiBiase who does a wonderful job of hamming the entire thing up much to my hilarity. Also the match with Jerry Lawler is quite entertaining. I mean it's standard and somewhat shit, but pretty entertaining.

 

[Hollywood Naitch]

Isnt $10.45 about £6 or something?

Fuck it, for that kind of price I would snap this up in the UK. There are a few good matches on there, and I would expect to find others that I haven't seen that are decent.

Forget the Mabel match though, I loathe everything that fat lump of crap has ever done in his career. The fact he is a KOTR winner angers me.

It's the first wrestling DVD I ever purchased. I've seen that thing way to many times.

 

[Con T.]

The Undertaker VS Kwang?

KWANG?!?!

Are we really running out of Taker matches to put on DVD? I can't see how this could be possible, he's been alive for thousands of years, hasn't he?

 

[Miko]

Yeah but most of his matches were shitter than that one.

 

[Coco]

Take into account that He Buries Them Alive was likely originally released in the mid 90s.

Looking forward to seeing my first Kwang match. No doubt.

Whats with liking Taker recently Coco? Have you reached a level of maturity I can only hope for? Is being unbiased better than blind hate?

 

[Tastycles]

I got some Undertaker DVD for free when I bought something I actually wanted a few years ago. It has him in a graveyard on the front. I've never watched it.

Hating things based on the unwarranted praise they get on the internet is exhausting. Instead of hating the game, I've decided to hate the player. Namely I Am Phenom, Dagger Dias, and probably Hamler.

So yes, maturity.

Agreed, I dont dislike him as much as I let on but the flack I used to get (either I am slipping or people are catching on) for pointing out his flaws with a little bit of added venom was amusing. I think Bret Hart has adopted the same approach with HHH. I think a lot of people are overrated though (Sting, Punk) but with them I put it aside and appreciate the performer, cant do it with Undertaker, so I am convinced there is something in it.

 

[Coco]

This release still isn't listed on Amazon.ca. I may have to cave and just buy myself a copy of Deadliest Matches, blurred WWF scratch logo and all.

 

[braveh]

Was it a Mania match where Taker got a little pink blood on his nose? To me he looked like he was in piglet costume and it was quite comical

 

[Coco]

I'm planning to open my copy of this soon. Hopefully the WWF scratch logo is uncensored. I'm a sucker for authenticity. Which makes it even odder that I'm an Undertaker fan.

 

[The Dragon Saga]

I routinely buy shit wrestling DVD's or even ones I've seen multiple times before when I see them going for cheap. I'd seen Beyond the Mat a good three times when I bought it.

Beyond the Mat is a great documentary, i must have seen it about 10x now at least. The stuff with Foley's family at ringside when he is getting his skull caved in by Rock at the Rumble is hard to watch though

That shit makes me detest The Rock.

That still amazes me. Two greats, absolute legends who, just because, can't have a good match together at all. They're brutally horrible.

I have this DVD, the Undertaker vs Kama match was surprisely great! totally under rated.

 

[Coco]

So did anybody actually like the Boiler Room Brawl? I remember it being nominated for a MOTY Slammy, but that doesn't mean much.
