These were great, and there were ones that featured individual stars too. Why did they decide to stop making them? The last real "tribute" video I remember them doing (other than Flair's) was the night after Edge first won the WWE title from Cena.

Yeah, I remember when the desire videos irst started. They were awesome, the original ones used My sacrifice by Creed, and really set the tone.
If only a few minutes were spent on Raw promoting wrestlers with a great video rather than the campy crap they produce now.

Love these, WWE does a great job of making things seem dramatic.
I remember loving the one with DX ruining the "Road of Faith" video to promote their "poisoning of WWF", disrespecting the legacy. That the name change to WWE wasn't too far behind seems weirdly fitting.

I remember at least one or a couple using an Our Lady Peace track. I want to say "Not Enough".
I definitely miss good individual promo videos/tributes.

I always remember WWE using 'My Immortal' for a video package. Does anyone have any ideas what it was?

I'm pretty certain they did a "Desire" equivalent for Jeff Hardy when he won/was about to win the title.

man I hate that creed song...I mean it just makes my skin crawl.
But I always loved that video. My two favorite parts; Shane flying through the glass at the K.O.T.R. street fight with Angle (god that match was epic) and the shot where Rock turns to Booker, does the Just Bring It motion and clearly yells "bring it motherf***er!" (i always thought the intensity in that shot was impressive)

Not sure if this is considered a desire video,but I loved the one they did for Mick Foley. The song was by Staind (not sure of the name).
