I recently heard there is a Rise and Fall of WCW dvd coming out. I am looking forward to seeing this. Of course I expect some McMahon revisionist history here, but I still think it will be entertaining. This got me to thinking what dvd ideas I could come up with that WWE hasn't done yet.
One idea I had is a dvd about all the WWE talk segments over the years. I see this as a two disc set done like the greatest managers dvd. There have been a lot over the years from Piper's Pit to Brother Love to the Funeral Parlor to the King's Court and many many more. Each one could get a few minutes highlighing some of their most memorable segments. WWE is still on good terms with the majority of these hosts (Piper, HBK, Lawler, Jake, etc., etc.) so they can be apart of it and talk about their memories. The special features can be some of the segments in their entirety like Shawn throwing Marty through the barber shop window and Andre challenging Hulk on Piper's Pit. These segments used to be a big part of the show and I think it would be fun to revisit some of them.
Another fun idea is a worst gimmicks dvd. This would be another two disc set similar to the managers dvd. We can relive some horrible ideas like the Red Rooster, Max Moon, Outback Jack, Rocco, etc., etc., etc. This could also include some of the most laughable storylines. For example Sting and Robocop, Sting and Davey Boy in the exploding boat, Sting and Vader in the White Castle of Fear, well pretty much anything Sting was involved in during the early 90's. Just some good old WWF fun.
Last I think it's time The Million Dollar Man got his own dvd. He has quite a history in wrestling. He's a second generation wrestler whose father passed away in the ring. I believe it was Harley Race who tried to revive him and Terry Funk who told Ted about the tragedy. The disc could go over Ted's early pre Million Dollar Man career and of course his WWF run. This was probably the greatest gimmick of the late 80's and I'm sure has an interesting story behind it. (I read his first book ten years ago so I know it's an intersting story). Also Ted could tell how he hit rock bottom and how finding religion saved his life. And of course it would be priceless (pun intended) to have some of those early Million Dollar Man segments on dvd. My favorite is the one where he offers a kid $500 to bounce a basketball 15 times, but kicks it away when the kid reaches 14.
Anyway, what do you think of these ideas? Would you buy these dvds? What other ideas do you have for some new releases?
