We talking about the same DVD here? The one I watched was only old ECW with commentary in between matches with Paul Heyman. I was talking about ECW Extreme Rules. It seems you're talking about Bloodspot: ECW's Most Violent Matches, which I own but haven't watched yet. (admission: I find ECW to be extremely boring). Ah that's the one. And yeah, aside from Tazz's, Bam Bam Bigelow's matches and one with Rey Mysterio, there's pretty much nothing to reccomend that DVD at all. |

Self-Destruction of the Ultimate Warrior, if only because it was petty as hell and just made the whole company look bad.

Ok this isnt the worst but I gotta mention The Best Of Smackdown for its 10th anniversary.
Raw's 15th anniversary dvd did it right, had the matches and clips and had a box appear with some facts, but for smackdown's instead of seeing the whole clip of the infamous supermarket brawl with austin and booker, we get todd grisham inserting comments he thinks that are so bad its funny when no, its just bad and corny.
All the moments are basically like this.

my problem with The True Story of Wrestlemania is that it gave me zero new information. I mean I'm still unsure of who bailed on Wrestlemania 1 causing Mean Gene to sing the National Anthem.

Everyone who was disappointed with the nWo DVD should watch the nWo anthology on YouTube. 45 hours of every single piece of nWo footage ever shot for TV and PPV with a description of what storylines were ongoing at the time.
I'm currently on hour 8.

Bobby Heenan DVD was lackluster in every sense of the word. Doc was less than an hour and the extras were either incomplete or confusing to include.

Not including The Bobby Heenan Show on that has to be among their more baffling decisions. As though they were holding it off for Bobby Heenan Vol. 2. |

The Rise and Fall of WCW.
It's probably not the worst but it's certainly the most disappointing. The Rise and Fall of ECW is a fantastic documentary which is very objective and informative (I had no idea Heyman was on the WWE payroll whilst he was running ECW). The WCW one was too short. ECW was around for less than a decade and gets a three hour documentary, WCW was around (in various guises) for over half a century, yet it gets two hours. I know they couldn't possibly fit in everything and it's a lot harder for WWE to be objective about WCW but as a chronicle of a company that helped changed wrestling, it's a missed opportunity.
Although there are some pretty good matches as extras.

It also seemed to be more even-handed than Monday Night Wars, even if it did very much gloss over everything post-Herd. |

In regards to the ECW ones that were mentioned here, both "Blood Sport" and "Extreme Rules," they were decent DVD sets, though I can admit that I bought the latter for really cheap at $2.99, but I can see why someone would complain about the level of gore. The Tai Pei death match wasn't really good. I think it was only added because of the violence factor. Also, with the inclusion of the barbed wire match, there had been other matches of that kind before that but Paul Heyman acted as if that was the only one they ever did.
As for "Extreme Rules," the first disc was worth watching, but the second one isn't too bad. We got Flair vs. Big Show on DVD. Plus, I like how both DVDs have alternate commentary tracks for a particular match. Tommy Dreamer vs. CW Anderson and Dreamer vs. Brian Lee on Blood Sport and Extreme Rules respectively.
Regarding the Best of Raw, I can see that they omitted a lot of 2004 on that one, but I guess it's only because Benoit was on Raw during those days.

The 2006 WWEShop Exclusive D-X DVD was bad. Blurred. Censored. And the extras were all matches not a promo to be had. Plus those matches were heavily edited as well. That's my nomination.

I must be the only one who liked Undertaker's Deadliest Matches, but I hated American Bad Ass Taker and loved everything before it so I'm biased.
