WWE Greatest Wrestling Stars of the 80s
$24.95
I'm wondering how far Vince McMahon's hatred of Randy Savage goes? How in blue blazes could he leave him OFF this compilation of 80's greats?

This is fun...lots of cool stuff and fun bio's and matches...certainly many retreads from other collections but again...

Macho Mans absence is ridiculous!

Thanks goodness greed prevailed and Mr McMahon has released the "Macho Madness" 3 dvd set...

We decided to expand our collection of physical fitness books in the school library. This has been a very popular book with grades 7-12 boys. It's a win-win because they desire to stay in shape and are READING!!!

The Triumph and Tragedy of World Class Championship Wrestling
$29.95
After watching and enjoying Heroes of World Class I thought it couldn't hurt to order this video. Heroes of World Class was obviously made with a lower budget but in my opinion was the better, more heartfelt of the two videos.

There were little things about this particular video that didn't make sense. Freebirds Jimmy Garvin and Buddy Rogers sat next to Michael Hayes without introduction for quite a while. It is almost impossible to figure out who these gentlemen are after several years away from the spot light. Also in the segment dedicated to Garvin there was no time allotted for his accounts of the storyline.

It bothered me to hear accounts from WCCW from HHH, Shawn Michael's and Jim Ross. I understand wrestlers can wrestle for years as virtual unknowns before being famous. But there were no documentation what so ever of any of these guys in WCCW. Their accounts were useless and didn't make sense to me. Instead I would have preferred to hear from actual members of the WCCW family.

I figured in the WWE DVD version there would be mention of Kerry's' foot coming off at ringside during a match; if indeed the story is true. During this video it's acknowledged that indeed Kerry's' foot was amputated but throughout the rest of the video you see him wrestling. I think to someone who was not as familiar with the story could easily be confused. I'm aware there is only so much time for the video but I figured they could have substituted a few Freebird stories.

Also, both videos say that Mike Von Erich wrote a note to his family, drank several beers and was found in a sleeping bag. But neither video says how while under the influence of drugs, beer and depression her actually drowned himself. The reason he wasn't found for several days had something to do with him having floated down the river.

This is a very tragic story and I wish it didn't have to be told. This video was a bit disappointing because when we buy videos such as this we think we're being told the whole story and I wish this had told a little bit more of the truth.
