Wrestling DVD question

Just curious which style people prefer. I much prefer the documentary style. With YouTube and similar sites, I can always go back and see a classic match. Documentaries give you access to the real person on a personal level. The actual human being and not the wrestling persona.

Re: Wrestling DVD question

Definitely the combined, because you get the best of both worlds.

Re: Wrestling DVD question

I buy DVDs for the matches... don't really care for Docs as much because more often than not (especially with WWE DVDs) you probably aren't getting the real person. I enjoy the wrestlers talking about their thoughts on the matches and their significance, though. I went with combination of both.

Re: Wrestling DVD question

This isn't 1998, just having a documentary is incredibly lame. However, this isn't 1989 either, we should have a video of more than just matches. Unless it's a combination, it's a huge strike against the DVD. The matches is the most important part though.

Combo please... I like to see matches and here the guys talking about the build and how tey felt working together and stuff. Definitely a combination.

Re: Wrestling DVD question

Combination, without a shadow of a doubt. Some of the newer WWE compliations have had a few thoughs between matches as opposed to a dedicated documentary and have suffered for it.

Great sets like the Flair collections and Bret Hart have a great documentaries in addition to a wide range of matches

Re: Wrestling DVD question

It depends, I like the combo if it is mostly documentary (like 75%). I HATE the DVD's that are only "Best of" (like The Rock's DVD). The only time I can accept a Best of DVD is if the person has already gotten a documentary DVD before (like Mick Foley and Hulk Hogan).

I just hate that with certain wrestlers we won't get a real documentary because it would ruin their character (like The Undertaker and Kane).

Re: Wrestling DVD question

Combo by far. I love seeing and hearing about it. They should seriously do some like that with Taker; newer version obviously.

Re: Wrestling DVD question

Just matches. Most wrestlers aren't intresting enough for even an hour long documentary. Yeat WWE make them anyway.
