As long as it has the complete Monster Truck match, I am SOLD. I'm sold on this too, but what I REALLY hope is included is the greatest of all Wrestlecrap moments: Heenan: "Which side of the building did they go off of?" Bischoff: "There's a river on one side, there's a parking lot on the other, what difference does it make?" *Heenan's 'I hate it here' facepalm* Seriously, this should be a lot of fun since I kinda dig Big Show.

Is the Best of Smackdown 2009-2010 the same as Best of Raw 2009 in regards to setup? I liked the Raw set and want to know if the Smackdown set is the same except that it covers Smackdown in 2009 instead of Raw.

Dissapointed with the Big Show listing, a huge jump from wcw 96 to WWf 99 and no 2001 matches. or Big Show vs Shane at Judgement day. anything with taker as a tag team. Thats really poor, do we need to have 11 PPV matches that are on their respective DVD releases.
WWE take their Best of DVD to literall, fans want matches that havent been released rather than the "best of" which includes 2/3s matches already on DVD

For me, anyway, I doubt I watch any of the matches by Show outside of a few nostalgic ones or goofy ones. Money is in the documentary for me, since Show is not really that renown for his wrestling prowess.

Question for any UK collectors out there, where do you tend to find the best deals on? Been looking to add to my pathetic collection for a while now and I can never seem to find really good deals. I only have Survivor Series 03, Royal Rumble 91 and 92 on tagged classics, No Mercy 05, The Self Destruction of the Ultimate Warrior, and I also have Summerslam 90, the DX Documentary, Wrestlemania 19 and Armageddon 99 on VHS.

While I'm not in the UK, I have been buying Tagged Classics on Amazon's UK site. you could also try eBay, just make sure to buy from people with very high feeback ratings.

How long does it take for a UK item to ship to the US?

While I'm not in the UK, I have been buying Tagged Classics on Amazon's UK site. you could also try eBay, just make sure to buy from people with very high feeback ratings. How long does it take for a UK item to ship to the US? It varies. The first 2 sets I ordered which were Judgment Day 2000/Fully Loaded 2000, and Armageddon 2000/No Way Out 2001. Those arrived within 5 days. The second 2 sets which were No Way Out 2000/Backlash 2000, and Unforgiven 2000/No Mercy 2000. Those only took about 5 days as well. But I ordered the King of the Ring 93/94 set on the 23rd, and it hasn't even shipped yet. The first 4 sets aren't even supposed to have shipped yet, but I already have them. So like I said it varies. EDIT: About 2 hours ago I ordered another set. In Your House 13: Final Four/In Your House 16: Canadian Stampede. Its already being prepped for shipping. The KOTR set is still sitting there waiting.

By the way guys if you are planning to buy some Tagged Classics from the UK, whether its from Amazon, Ebay, or whatever. You need to know about the exchange rate. Because if you have never dealt with exchange rates before it can really throw you off. As of today, its basically like this.
1.00 British Pound = 1.59 US Dollar.
So for example the the Survivor Series 97/98 set on Amazon UK is 19.99 in pounds, that means it will be 31.80 in US dollars. Not all the sets cost that much though, you'll find that some of them will be even cheaper when you check out. Amazon does do rate exchanges to make it easier for you.
Also, ordering from the US means no free shipping, or "dispatching" as they call it. Its 3.08 in pounds, so 4.90 in dollars. So basically the same as here really.
So hopefully this helps you guys out. Its very cool to be able to get these sets, just be sure you have a way to play them, they are region 2 discs. So that means a multi region DVD player, or get VLC media player for your PC.
Just lookin out for you guys.

Yeah, its not on the packaging or the menu screen, but during the actual event its fully intact. No blurring, no audio edits of WWF. Just make sure you can play region 2 discs.

I have VLC Player, so I'm good. Also its best to avoid anything before Wrestlemania 8, because those are pretty much just Coliseum Video transfers, which means they are edited. Not for WWF stuff, but for time constraints. It was very hard to fit a full WWF PPV onto to a standard VHS tape back then. Wrestlemania 8 was the first PPV they adapted the 2:40 standard to. That basically means they made it to where the PPV's wouldn't go too far over 2 hours and 40 minutes. Which is why most of them now end between 2:45 and 2:50. Wrestlemania being an exception of course.

Best of Raw 2010 is good from what I've seen so far (disc 1). A few match choices are bizarre and there's far too much emphasis on the DX side of things early on. I feel the SD set had better matches, but it's a good disc that is getting better as time rolls on.

They really are milking that Showmiz title win match for whatever worth its worth (sheesh) I mean come on its already on the Best of RAW 2010 dvd that just came out. Why not put JeriShow's title win instead? You mean the match between Legacy, the Colons, Jericho, Edge, and NOT the Big Show?

Also, there's always some bargains on Amazon Marketplace. For a bricks-and-mortar store, if you have a CeX shop near you they have good deals sometimes. Also try the ghetto used goods shops like Cash Converters and used record shops, they usually don't know how to price wrestling and I've found rare-ass DVDs for like £1 each now and again.

Still no reason to put the same match on two consecutive dvd releases when there so much other stuff that could have been put on there in its place.

Does the Macho Man DVD come reccomended? I have zero interest in his WCW years but After watching a lot of Randy Savage in lesser quality over the years I am sorely tempted to pick this up and experience his matches in better quality, plus those extras on Disc 3 look amazing. They're the kind of extras the Ultimate Warrior disc needed

My only problem with the set is that a good deal of the matches on it are on other sets, but thats not a problem if you don't own very many. I'd also recommend the The Best of Saturday Nights Main Event. Not just because its awesome in its own right, but because it has a great heel vs. heel match between Savage and Jake Roberts for the IC title.
