DVD Review: Best DVD Out There!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Ladder Match is the most amazing, hardcore, entertaining DVD out there! It has amazing matches and I particularly like the matches with the Hardys and Edge and Christian----amazing...BUY ITDVD Review: Evolution of Ladder Match...and WWE itself
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been a wrestling fan since 1996 and have watched all kinds of wrestling. I have a wrestling DVD/VHS collection spanning over 50 all together. This is the most complete and accurate review of this DVD you will find. I hope you find this review helpful; remember to vote helpful or not helpful. (Note-Each DVD I review has a "Match of the DVD" award somewhere in it.)
WWE- The Ladder Match
The Ladder Match. It is one of the most violent, most entertaining, and most high-risk matches in WWE history. WWE has given us this gift of 22 amazing Ladder Matches in this 3-Disk set. Todd Grisham hosts this set, and he does a great job of being a geek that is entertaining. Some people complain because this set lacks the Triangle Ladder Match from WWE WrestleMania April 2, 2000 and Shawn/Razor from WWE WrestleMania X - 10 Years In The Making, but I like the fact that they gave us some of the lesser know Ladder Match instead of those two. If you are a wrestling fan this needs to be in your collection. This not only shows the evolution of the Ladder Match, but the evolution of WWE as a whole.
-Disc 1-
Ladder Match (Stampede Wrestling- July 1979)
North American Heavyweight Championship & Cash
Jake Roberts VS Big Daddy Ritter
This is one of the very early Ladder Matches from Stampede Wrestling. The match is joined in progress. It's worth a watch once, but after that you won't watch it again.
RATING- 4/10
Ladder Match (July 21, 1992)
Intercontinental Championship
Bret Hart(c) VS Shawn Michaels
This match was another early Ladder Match; this time the match was a WWF match. The match isn't horrible, but it's another match you'll only watch once.
RATING- 6/10
Ladder Match (Summerslam 1995)
Intercontinental Championship
Shawn Michaels(c) VS Razor Ramon
This was the rematch from their classic WWE WrestleMania X - 10 Years In The Making Ladder match. Both men work really hard to pull off a great match. Shawn Michaels takes a terrible bump when he is suplexed off the ring and his ankle hits the guardrail. The reason why the score is only 8.5 is because the ending is severely screwed up. Michaels attempts to grab the belt 3 in a row before being successful.
RATING- 8.5/10
Ladder Match (Summerslam 1998)
Intercontinental Championship
Triple H VS The Rock(c)
This is one of my favorite Ladder Matches. It's funny to think that a few short months later The Rock would be WWF Champion and about a year later Triple H would be WWF Champion. Both men put on a show filled with great, new spots. The Rock even delivers a People's Elbow to Triple H while he's on the Ladder. This match can't get a perfect score due to the ending.
RATING- 9.5/10
Terri Invitational Tournament- Ladder Match (No Mercy 1999)
Edge & Christian VS New Brood (Jeff and Matt Hardy)
If you've ever seen any of their other Ladder matches, this will disappoint you. This was more like a sample of what you would get later on. You see all your regular Hardy moves and that's about it. Also, for most of the match, they don't even seem to care about getting the money hanging above the ring, but instead just want to do crazy moves. Still, it's cool to see the Hardys pulling off some of their early moves in this match.
RATING- 7.5/10
Tables, Ladders, and Chairs Match (Summerslam 2000)
World Tag Team Championships
Dudley Boyz VS Edge & Christian(c) VS Hardy Boyz
Now, this was a big step up from the last match. The Dudleys are what really bring this match together. I'm not saying they are the best, but if they weren't in it, it would be exactly like the No Mercy match. Lots of awesome spots and tons of broken tables, that's what you can expect. Bubba, Matt, and Jeff all take huge Ladder to Table spots near the end. Edge and Christian sneak in the back door to pick up the victory.
RATING- 9/10
Triple Ladder Match (WCW Starrcade 2000) (Match of the DVD)
Contract for WCW Cruiserweight Championship Match
3 Count VS Jung Dragons VS Jamie Knoble & Evan Karagias
What the ****? That's right WCW is in the house. Now, this is from the end of 2000, just a few short months before WCW died. So, you expect crap right? No. This match is one of the greatest Ladder Matches of all time. You see many innovative spots that you'll never see in WWE. They even stack the ladders like a scaffold and do moves off of it. Also, even though this is a tag team match, there can be only one winner. Which adds to the interesting nature of things.
RATING- 10/10
Ladder Match (Royal Rumble 2001)
Intercontinental Championship
Chris Benoit(c) VS Chris Jericho
The Benoit/Jericho rivalry erupts into a Ladder Match. This was a well-paced match; I just felt it lacked something great. Benoit gets smashed in the face by a steel chair while try to dive onto Jericho. There are just too many "I push you off the ladder and you fall out the ring" spots.
RATING- 8/10
-Disc 2-
TLC 2 (Wrestlemania X7)
Edge & Christian VS Dudley Boyz(c) VS Hardy Boyz
These 3 teams put on the perfect match. They have really worked out the kinks from the original TLC match and fixed it here. Edge does the insane spear on Hardy while he is hanging from the belts spot that you see in millions of highlight videos. Rhyno, Spike Dudley, and Lita all make appearances and have their own spots.
RATING- 10/10
Fatal Four-Way TLC 3 (Smackdown, May 24, 2001)
World Tag Team Championships
Edge & Christian VS Chris Jericho & Chris Benoit(c) VS Hardy Boyz VS Dudley Boyz
This is often called the forgotten TLC match due to the fact that Edge lost this TLC match, despite Edge claiming he's never lost a TLC Match. Benoit and Jericho make this TLC different than the previous two by bringing their styles to this match. There are a lot of different spots then the other TLC matches, which means you won't feel like this is the same match you've already seen. Benoit gets injured pretty badly.
RATING- 9/10
Ladder Match (No Mercy 2001)
Intercontinental Championship
Christian(c) VS Edge
Well, the amazing team couldn't last forever. Both Edge and Christian pursue singles careers instead of staying a tag team. The match is significantly slower than all of the other matches so far, but it's still got its strong points. The ending is really well done.
RATING- 8/10
Ladder Match (Raw, May 27, 2002)
Intercontinental Championship
Eddie Guerrero(c) VS Rob Van Dam
I really enjoyed this match. A good portion of the match is not focused on the later, but they build up the match before bringing it into the ring. RVD plummets from the ladder when he stumbles trying to do a frog splash. Great match, especially for Raw. Chris Benoit makes an appearance.
RATING- 8.5/10
Ladder Match (Raw, July 1, 2002)
Undisputed WWE Championship
Undertaker(c) VS Jeff Hardy
I don't understand why some people consider this an amazing match. This was a good, solid match, but it lacked a lot of action. I will admit that it had a lot of emotion wrapped into it. I was just expecting more spots and Hardy to not be beat down most of HIS match.
RATING- 7.5/10
TLC 4 (Raw, October 7, 2002)
World Tag Team Championships
Kane(c) VS Rob Van Dam & Jeff Hardy VS Bubba Ray & Spike Dudley VS Jericho & Christian
Kane is Tag Team Champions with Hurricane Helms, but Triple H attacked Hurricane earlier in the night so Kane is on his own. The match didn't live up to the other great TLC matches, but it was still fun to watch. The action seemed random and didn't draw enough emotion.
RATING- 8/10
Ladder Match (Unforgiven 2004)
Intercontinental Championship
Chris Jericho VS Christian
After Edge was forced to vacate the title due to injury, a new champion must be decided. The match itself wasn't all that great. The pacing seemed very off and there weren't any really good spots to cover that up.
RATING- 7/10
-Disc 3-
Money in the Bank Ladder Match (Wrestlemania 21)
Chris Benoit VS Chris Jericho VS Edge VS Shelton Benjamin VS Christian VS Kane
Now this was an awesome way to start out the final disk. The winner would receive a title shot at anytime of his choosing anytime over the next year. All men put on a great effort in this spot filled match. Shelton Benjamin really puts on a show you have to see to believe.
RATING- 9/10
Ladder Match (Summerslam 2005)
Custody of Dominick
Eddie Guerrero VS Rey Mysterio
Seeing as you won't have to actually watch the long, drawn out, ridiculous story line on TV, you will not hate this match as much as everyone else. This ladder match was different and contained spots that you've never seen before, including a sick backdrop from the ladder onto another ladder that was propped up on it.
RATING- 9/10
Ladder Match (Raw, October 3, 2005)
Loser Leaves Raw/Money in the Bank
Edge VS Matt Hardy
This was a strong match from Raw with a very real storyline behind it. The loser had to leave Raw, but the winner would get the MITB. Some good spots but this can't top the two previous matches.
RATING- 8/10
TLC 5 (Raw, January 16, 2006)
WWE Championship
Edge(c) VS Ric Flair
Four years after the last TLC takes place we get our first singles TLC match. No one expected Ric Flair to win this match considering Edge had just won the title, but Flair made us believe through the course of this match. Flair takes a ton of punishment and almost pulls it off.
RATING- 8/10
TLC 6 (Unforgiven 2006)
WWE Championship
John Cena VS Edge(c)
Cena is in yet another hostile environment, much like he was at ECW: One Night Stand. They are in Edge's hometown and in Edge's match. Good pacing and a strong amount of spots. Cena screws up a sunset flip, but we can't be too hard on him.
RATING- 8.5/10
Ladder Match (Raw, November 20, 2006)
Intercontinental Championship
Jeff Hardy(c) VS Johnny Nitro
A very good Raw match that put Johnny Nitro on the map for many people. Nitro hits an amazing dropkick to Hardy while both are on the Ladder. Good match, worth a watch.
RATING- 8/10
Fatal Four-Way Ladder Match (Armageddon 2006)
WWE Tag Team Championship
Paul London & Brian Kendrick(c) VS MNM VS Hardys VS William Regal & Dave Taylor
To close the DVD, they give you the brutal Ladder match from Armageddon. The match is really just a cluster until Joey Mercury gets his nose broken and is rushed to the hospital. It is really a brutal shot that you have to see to believe. After that the match picks up and you see some really good spots.
RATING- 9/10
DVD Review: A must own!
Summary: 5 Stars
Bottom line, you get over 20 of the best matches that span the last 10 years of the WWF/WWE, and a few that span even longer.
90+% of the matches featured are must see big time marquee matches featuring the best singles and tag team wrestlers from many different generations.
From Raw and Smackdown, to Wrestlemania and Summerslam. From Ric Flair and Bret Hart, to Hardys and Dudleys.
Easily the best bang for the buck, and my current favorite in my large collection of WWE DVD's.
DVD Review: Slobberknocker!
Summary: 5 Stars
You clearly like Ladder Matches - why else would you even look at this product? Just buy it! 3 discs! All complete matches! Be honest - you want to see guys falling 20 ft through tables. You want to see Jeff Hardy get speared while hanging in mid-air above the ring. You want to see wrestling that no one can just brush off as 'fake'. You can't fake gravity. Own it, love it, but don't try it at home without health insurance.DVD Review: JERICHO>>>>>>>>>It doesn't get any better.....or does it?
Summary: 5 Stars
The Chris Jericho matches are the highlight, no doubt about it....I'm looking for a Chris Jericho ONLY DVD like the other big shots have in the WWE.....so far, no luck. I did get the Fozzy CD/DVD he just released, and that was excellent! Come on WWE....where's the Jericho DVD....plus put another Fozzy CD with it! That would be the ultimate collection!!!
Wrestle Rock!!!!!
