Wrestling Gold Special Edition 5 Disc DVD Boxset (Brand New & Factory Sealed)
The 'Wrestling Gold' DVD collection is a release that lives up to all the hype. A FIVE disc boxset jam packed with former & present WWF, WWE, ECW, TNA, AWA wrestling stars as well as pro wrestling legends from the sports territory days & its various promotions.
The five part series by Kit Parker Films and VCI Entertainment far exceeds the quality of anything found on a wrestling DVD to date. This unrivaled set contains a wealth of information and classic footage that can be found nowhere else. Even those who have followed wrestling for over 25 years, can learn a thing or two from the tag team commentary provided by the incomparable Wrestling Observer Newsletter Editor, Dave Meltzer, and his partner in crime, wrestling manager and industry insider, Jim Cornette. In fact, it is the educational and entertaining commentary by Meltzer and Cornette that makes 'Wrestling Gold' on DVD set worth owning.
Viewers have the option of listening to the original commentators call the matches, or Meltzer and Cornette dispensing their knowledge. So humorous and insightful are Meltzer and Cornette's comments that they breathe life into what would be otherwise termed as "scrub" matches on 'Wrestling Gold'. For example, on 'Busted Open' a "rookie" Shawn "Heartbreak Kid" Michaels wrestles Ken Johnson in a throwaway match from Texas All-Star Wrestling. The match itself is nothing to write home about, but Meltzer and Cornette take the opportunity to give us the history of Michaels' career and his achievements in the business and because of this, we are glued to the match until the official slaps the three count.
WRESTLING GOLD Besides the extraordinary job that Meltzer and Cornette do with their commentary, the collection's greatest feat is the way in which the archival footage has been restored for release on DVD. The clarity will startle fans who have been used to watching the sometimes grainy footage of yesteryear matches that is found on videotape. Bouts from the sixties and seventies on 'Wrestling Gold' look as if they were shot last week.
For those who appreciate the history and evolution of professional wrestling business, this set is the set for you.
