I don't own any aside from recordings of Smackdown, Raw, RoH, etc which I'm not counting. I'm talking about vhs releases. I almost bought a WCW Slamboree(can't remember which one, but I know it had Kevin Nash on the cover) tape at a thrift store, but it was spanish audio and the tape was cracked...

I have various ECW tapes that I used to hide from my parents as that was the only company my family did not let me watch. I also randomly have Halloween Havoc 1998 for some reason. I think my brother borrowed it from some store and never returned it. Needless to say, I have seen Hogan-Warrior too many times (and by that, I mean more than zero).

I threw all of mine out a couple of years ago. Nothing I'm too sad to see gone. WWE Network makes up for quite a bit of it, though I did have a lot of the ECW PPVs taped off the original airings, which means they would have had the original music. Kind of wish I still had those.

Have all mine in a box in the basement. I have quite a few still, a good mix of actual purchased tapes and stuff I taped off TV.

i actually just found my vhs wrestling collection in storage along with a working vcr two days ago. most of my vhs collection consists of purchases of pre-used tapes from Blockbuster made during the MNW, so when i opened up the box the one jumped out at me the most as "the f*** is this?!" was... ..."Sid Vicious: The Millennium Man". if i ever become financially destitute i'll sell it one ebay, cause a vhs tape dedicated to Sid Vicious must easily be worth at least $5000

Still have a couple of VHS tapes at home: old WWF, ECW, ROH and some Japanese compilation stuff, including a New Japan show (Hogan vs Chono from a few years ago).

Yep, I have StarrCade '93, Slamboree '93, Slamboree '96, Slamboree '99, Road Wild '99, Royal Rumble '94, StarrCade '98, Bash at the Beach '94... I think that's it. I have thought about selling them but the few I checked on weren't doing too well on eBay. Might as well keep them if I can only get $5 out of each one.

I have a bunch of tapes from 2000-2005, even though I don't have a working VCR to play them on (or an older TV to play them on).

Still got a half a garage full of them. Got the whole WWECW, original NXT, Velocity, Heat, Deep South Wrestling, and Superstars on WGN runs. Also got old WCW shows, Raw and Smackdown from 2001 to 2013, TNA from 2003 to 2013, and WWE and TNA ppvs from 2005 to 2013. Not even sure what still works or have them in order anymore.

I have a vhs tape of a video recording of me meeting Chris and Nancy Benoit at the airport here in the city. It was during the Monday night wars...

Bunch of Raws, bunch of ECW arena events, a boatload of WWF PPVs, handful of WCW PPVs with the next night's Nitro after them.
Still got 'em, just can't watch any of them. Sticking one in any of my VCRs is like playing Russian Roulette; never know which one will get chewed up.
So, basically, WWE Network is my storage center.

I still have all my VHS tapes and watch a few on occasion. I enjoy the WWE DVDs and seeing some footage cut from the original Coliseum releases and the extras are enjoyable but for the true themes and even a few cool extras, the originals are great!

I still have a lot of recorded tapes of PPVs I watched back in the late 1990s. If you mean distributed tapes, I still have some of those, too. I remember finding Wrestlemania XIV and King of the Ring 1998 at Walmart in the bargain bin back in 2002 for about $3 each. I also have a Shawn Michaels tape from Coliseum Video that I found at Sam Goody back in 2000.

I have every main collection Coliseum Video from 1989-1997 and a whole bunch of other WWF Home Videos and WCW Releases. They're currently decorating the inside of a sturdy plastic tote in my storage closet, but I have no plans to get get rid of them.

Threw them out last year. Pained me to do so, since I've had them since I was a kid, but they were taking up too much space.

I have not owned a VHS of any kind in over 10 years.

I have a handful, stuff like Cuz Stone Cold Said So, Know Your Role, Austin vs McMahon, Best of Raw, It's True, It's True. I was just watching Best of Raw with a younger friend the other day (He missed out on the attitude era). Best part of WWE vhs is that you aren't forced to listen to the 'don't try this at home" messages. I'm 41. I'm not going to try this at home MFers!

I have a ton. I've been going through the oldest ones recently and sadly they're all in pretty rough shape. Hulkamania 2 just stops during the Hogan/Orndorff-Bundy/Studd match and nothing I can do will get it to play again.
