The History DVD is actually kind of funny if you watch it. When they show Hogan vs. Warrior Monsoon starts to talk about how they were already 40 minutes into the match at this point and yet they just started.
I might be a little off on this, I haven't watched it in over a year or so but that sticks out in my head.

I LOVE the old Coliseum Video releases. I wish they'd go all out and re-release the entire Coliseum library to DVD, because I'd snatch them all up in a heartbeat. They've already put out He Buries Them Alive, History of WM I-IX, Shawn Michaels: Boyhood Dream, History of the IC Title...the list goes on and on.

I have several Coliseum videos, including the very first one:Wrestling's Bloopers,Bleeps and Bodyslams. I also have Hulkamania 1-4, some old PPV's and some personality series. I bought some from a guy that bought them when Coliseum went out of business.

I have some of the "best of wwf" volumes that i've picked up here and there and also have bloopers, bleeps, and bodyslams... these are from the early 80s and are really gems.

Kind of off-topic, but does anyone here remember the "WWF Collector's Edition" videotapes they advertised in their magazines circa 1993? It was a video-of-the-month club type thing - first tape was best of WrestleMania, and other epics in this set included Best of Saturday Night's Main Event and Best of Hulkamania.
Please tell me that SOMEONE on here subscribed to this thing!

I was going to pick it up as im trying to collect these DVDs also I really enjoy the Undertaker: He Buries Them Alive. It only has 5 matches on it but has his Undertaker vs. Undertaker, and Taker vs. Yokazuna in a Casket match. Those are the two that stick out in my mind as thats how far I got because I watched them like at 2 in the morning.

I might be a little off on this, I haven't watched it in over a year or so but that sticks out in my head. And how Savage/Steamboat was 35 minutes in at the point Monsoon and JR commentated. Since it was early 2004 and not a smart fan yet, I didn't know the match merely went THIRTEEN (13) MINUTES!!! As for Collesium Videos, I love 'em. Whether from cheesy superstar profiles on Hacksaw to their butchered PPV's, there was always fun to be had.

Please tell me that SOMEONE on here subscribed to this thing! I remember those. They came in those fancy all black cases, that snapped shut. Never subscribed though. I'm a huge mark of the Coliseum Video library. Everything from the rare matches not shown on TV, to the segments with the wrestlers in every-day situations. I loved them all. I really loved the 1st best of Raw collection (the one with Rick Martel locking Razor Ramon into the Boston Crab) So many classic moments I would love to re-live again.

Coliseum Video brings back such happy memories of childhood. Those tapes are the only time I've seen some of the early 90s stars in action. Watch Yokozuna eat his weight in sushi! Watch Bret Hart draw cartoons! Watch The Bushwhackers and Lord Alfred Hayes remodel a house! Watch Kamala learn to bowl!
And I liked how for some PPVs, there was footage "shot exclusively for Coliseum Video." Kinda like the precursor to DVD extras.

I did!
I subscribed and got most of the Columbia house videos. Some were pretty bad, but the cage match and Unusual match ones are gems I still watch from time to time.

Yeah, the IC title one was terrible, but again, it's typical early 90s fare that only had matches from the last few years. I really think WWE should've put together a new collection (say, a 3 disc set) for Best of the IC title, because it deserves so much better. Then again, their treatment of the title's history on DVD releases sort of reflects its current treatment on TV, doesn't it?

I just love the old action figure commercials before most of the videos.
