It also has a roundtable discussion about their careers I assume. I haven’t watched it yet. But I got this thing for only $3 Good find, good find ineed!
Edit: Ok, this dvd is WEIRD! I’m watching the roundtable, and maybe 15 minutes in, and this is really disappointing stuff.
So first off, despite both probably being in the company at the time this was filmed (It seems to be roughly 2005) neither Flair nor Slaughter are on the roundtable. How did they fuck THAT up???
Instead, we got Micheal Hayes, Pat Patterson, Dusty Rhodes, and Mike Gram as guests. Usually I see Mean Gene as the host, but this time we got Jim Ross. This is where it gets weird. First off, Pat Patterson hasn’t said one word. If they didn’t do far shots with everybody in them, you wouldn’t even know he’s there. Micheal Hayes is insufferable as always. And I don’t know who this Mike Gram is, but he seems like he’s only ever seen clips of what they’re discussing. At one point he asks “But where did he come up with the Nature Boy name???” and he gets ignored, so he asks it about 16 more times in a row, talking over everybody else as they try their best to ignore him, until finally Jim Ross just says “He got it from Buddy Rose”. Grams response to that was just “See? I told ya!” Which makes no sense. I’m half convinced they edited some context out, because, it’s so off the wall that you’re not even sure what he’s implying. Told you? Told us what? You just asked the same question over and over until they pity answered you since you wouldn’t shut up…
Jim Ross is not at all leading the discussion the way Mean Gene would. Everybody is talking over everybody else. Nothing is making sense. Dusty is trying to tell a story about one-upsmanship between himself and Flair, while Gram is constantly trying to interupt. Dusty is an excellent storyteller, if you shut up and listen. Dusty is telling the story that he would buy a mink coat, in cold weather, so Flair would buy a much more expensive fur coat. Flair would buy a house, then Dusty bought a house, so Flair would buy a bigger house next week. Dusty starts to tell a story about how the lights in the arena were dark, and for his entrance he’s open the curtain, still dark, and then open a door behind him. So now all you see a a siloquette in the entrance way. Dusty is slow building the story, so it has suspense. It’s clearly going somewhere. Instead, Gram is interupting, saying that what Dusty is talking about has nothing to do with Flair. The story was far from finished, and Gram is yelling “Yeah, but what’s that got to do with Flair???”
Then Gram starts talking about how Flair was one of the bigger wrestlers at 300lbs.
Please, someone stuff a ballgag in Grams mouth. PLEASE!!! He’s somehow being more insufferable that Micheal Hayes…and that’s a talent. Not a good talent, but still a talent. Meanwhile, instead of getting us back on track, Jim Ross is just sitting there with a “Kill me now” look on his face.
Oh, and again, Pat Patterson still technically exists on this panel. Hasn’t said one word.
I’m only 20 minutes in, and I might honestly just skip the roundtable discussion, and just watch some classic matches. One of which from 5 days before I was born!
I think this is the dvd you got: https://imdb.com/title/tt4030394/
Which would mean Mike Gram is Mike Graham, Eddie Graham’s son, and at a time a tag team parter of Kevin Sullivan.
For your own sanity I agree it’s probably wise that you stop watching the roundtable, but, for my enjoyment, I’d love you to continue the commentary haha.
Mike Graham said “In those days, it wasn’t about the money. It was about the towns, the people, the shows, the women, the money was secondary” They cut to a shot of Patterson as he’s saying this, and he’s just shaking his head “no”, and when he finished the statement JR just says “Well, when you’re done thinking that, just look at who made it in this business.” and motions towards Patterson as Patterson smirks.
Then Hayes says some comment about the money being more than just money, it was freedom.
And this whole time, I’m thinking to myself "I’m hearing a lot of talking, but not hearing anyone actually SAY anything. It’s just soundbyte repetition. There are no full valid points being made, because nobody is letting Dusty tell a story, which honestly would carry this whole DVD. Mike Graham is just spouting random bullshit, Micheal Hayes is being himself, and Patterson has said about 3 sentences, and only when called on. Meanwhile, JR just looks like he’d rather be getting a colonoscopy. He tried getting it back on track, knowing it’s a DVD about Flair and Slaughter (BTW, 30 minutes in, and Slaughter hasn’t even been MENTIONED yet), JR tries to get it back on track and asks Dusty if Flair was his favorite rivalry. Fully expecting Dusty to play along, say yes, and tell a Flair story. Instead Dusty just said Harley Race was his favorite opponent and that he had wrestled him 2000 times. JR just mentally rolled his eyes, and his face said “I give up…”
When even Dusty has checked out, and you got a mute, a jackass, and a putz as your only voices, where do you go from here? Dusty was about the only saving grace to the conversation, and he’s seemingly having fun sidetracking it as much as he can.
OH! And all this while Hayes is chain smoking cigerettes, and Dusty is chain smoking cigars. The camera work even leans into this HARD. There are some shots that are just smoke being blown right at the camera. Like it’s an asthetic. It’s not. It just looks like we caught these guys on their smoke break, and they have no clue what to talk about.
It’s at the point where I’m just laughing at how BAD this conversation is, when 30% of the time you can’t even tell what’s being said because 3 or 4 of them are all talking over each other. It’s just a conversation jumble.
This will be the last time I watch the main feature on this.
was that a wwe produced show? i’ve never heard of it that’s wild that there’d be so many good matches majority being non-wwe/f. that seems very un wwe like.
