I seem to remember WWE did a lot of video packages to Creed's 'My Sacrifice' in 2001 or so. Some were for individual wrestlers (Rock, Austin, Edge, Taker and Jeff) and I think the first one they did was a package to all the stunt spots that had taken place over the previous few years.
I honestly thought they were really effective and loved them. The slo mo of Jeff swanton bombing off a ladder as the chorus kicks in was awesome. Though I did wonder at the time if they were going to do a video package on every wrestler with this song.

The idea of every wrestling getting one makes me want one for some people on the current roster. Besides the obvious like Punk or Cena, Hornswoggle, Brodus Clay, and the Usos have to happen.

I loved them. They were all really good.
But my favorite that they did was from 2002, it was a company wide type video set to "Weathered" by Creed from the same album. It was really really good.

The one that showed all of the great moments and spots over the years was my favorite. I always get chills when Austin and Rock pass by each other with this intense stare during the "Hello my friend we meet again" bit plays.

Yeah, the highlights one (shown at Survivor Series '01) was my favourite. I would rewind and watch that a couple times each time I watched that PPV. It still sends chills down my spine each time I watch it.

WWE's always had some pretty awesome packages, but man, right around this time (and for a couple years before & after this) they really made some memorable ones, between these, the HHH "Beautiful Day" one, and of course, Rock/Austin's "My Way" package.

Jeff Hardy to "Rooftops" is just AMAZING. I get chills everytime I see it.

WWE somehow has this way of using songs that I would never enjoy in an effective way. I hate LImp Bizkit, but the "My Way" promo for Wrestlemania X7 was so awesome that I remember it to this day. Same with Creed, dislike their music but in the context of their video packages it really worked.

Jeff Hardy to "Rooftops" is just AMAZING. I get chills everytime I see it. This is one of my all time faves. Doesn't hurt that Jeff is one of my all time favorites. "History of the WWF" video package (the one with Kid Rock) was amazing. I really hope they do something like that again, but showcasing the current era in comparison to the 'history' of the Attitude Era (when it was originally released). |

beautiful promos, My Way for WM x-7 was amaze!, still my all time fav match, that promo was beautiful, im a LB and Creed fan, Austin's promo with My Sacrifice was beautiful too "when that glass cracks and you come through that curtain, you may as well be a junkie cause you hooked on it", "every bump, hit, stitch, cut, i wouldn't give none of them back to you, cause i loved them all", ahhh legendary
I was 9 in 2001, i love that year in WWE with a passion, and 2002, seriously, loved every second of the Alliance angle, naive 9 year old?, maybe, but i really loved it, and yeah, the 2002 Lonely Road Of Faith promo was beautiful too, when it switched to Kid Rock with the nWo and DX, amazing!

I remember, and I also remember people doing their own versions too. There was an awesome Sting one f'instance.

I loved them, I used to have a bunch of them saved. I liked some of the other Desire videos they did to Our Lady Peace's "Not Enough" and I think Rock's one was set to "Alive" by P.O.D.
If there's one thing WWE has been consistently good at over the years it's producing awesome video packages.
