I shouldn't make too much fun of Batista, because most wrestlers and MMA fighters dress like complete tools.

For example, this is what Cena was wearing earlier in Japan...

OK, this needs to be put in context.

The jacket is from a famous Japanese steakhouse that is frequented by a lot of wrestler. Getting one is supposed to be an honor.

Zubazz pants are apparently really popular in Japan.

I don't know why, maybe they just started getting reruns of Saved by the Bell! For some reason, they're really popular.

So, basically this whole outfit is Cena's way of sucking up to the crowd. Like wearing a Knicks jersey at the Garden.

Has anyone peeped Stone Cold's new "The Bottom Line" DVD set yet? I've started watching it, and they're really going into his early career so far, with him talking about his working for Dutch Mantell and his days at the Sportatorium. I never really bothered watching his other DVDs, so this may have been covered in those as well. But, I got the impression that this is as in-depth as it's going to get with him, so he may be going over some brand new stuff. I couldn't tell ya! It's got a running time of 2 hours 31 minutes, so it damn well should be all-encompassing! lol

Anyone else going to check out this set?

P.S. - It's hard watching my boy HBK give interviews sometimes because his cross eyes are getting more and more pronounced as he gets older. Every time I see him on the screen on this DVD, all I can pay attention to is his crossed eyes (actually, I think it's just the right eye that's a little crazy). I wonder if this is a result of that severe beating he took in Syracuse back in the 90s.

Yeah, I got the Blu Ray. This is as far as I know the 1st time he actually sat down and discussed his career from beginning to now. Really good stuff.

I wish they would've gone more in depth with the Hollywood Blondes Stuff. There wasn't even a match on the DVD that had them on there, but Brian Pillman's DVD covered a lot of stuff.

I loved Austin putting creative on blast for the shitty names they were trying to get him to use like Fang McFrost and Ice Dagger!

falloff

I was surprised at how emotional he almost got in talking about The Rock. You can see how tight they are and how much respect they have for each other. It kinda makes the whole "Austin vs Rock, who's better" talk on message boards seem really petty.

Great documentary, haven't really gotten a chance to really dive into the matches and special features, but what I did see I loved.

I also loved how inside the DVD was. He didn't keep to kayfabe at all. Which makes stuff like Arn Anderson sticking to kayfabe in the Four Horsemen DVD even funnier!

There's a full-length, 2+ hour documentary on Austin's career from being trained by the late, great Gentleman Chris Adams to his induction in the Hall of Fame.

There's matches that I'm sure are repeats from past Austin DVD's. This is the only one I have, so I'm not sure which ones are.

Here's the chapter and match listings.

At his apex, Stone Cold Steve Austin was a pop culture phenomenon and the biggest Superstar in the history of sports entertainment. Despite battling the rejection of being fired and a career-threatening injury, Austin persevered and vaulted to the top of his profession. Now, fans can relive the epic story of the Texas Rattlesnake with "Stone Cold Steve Austin: The Bottom Line on the Most Popular Superstar of All Time". Filled with new, never-before-seen insightful interviews with Austin as well as his biggest rivals, including Mr. McMahon, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Triple H, Chris Jericho and more, this four disc DVD is packed with Stone Cold's most memorable moments and matches and provides a complete career retrospective on the man who revolutionized WWE.

Yeah, I just finished it. I was just about to say, as well, that I was surprised at how emotional he got when discussing that last match with The Rock. I was also surprised at how emotional the Rock was too in that older interview byte where he was talking about what he said to him after he pinned Austin. It really kind of brought up home just how special that time was in pro wrestling. These two were the BIGGEST names in damn near all of pro wrestling, and they pretty much hit their strides at about the same time. And they always had great chemistry on the mic and in the ring. The kids today who are fans will never know what it was like to be amidst of how huge they (and wrestling at the time) were and how loud the arenas would get and how entertaining the shows were back then.

Those names he was given were just God awful!! lol At least The Ringmaster was better than that, though not by much! I was hoping they'd show some more of his Stunning/HB days in WCW too. I especially love that one bit where he refused to defend the championship he just won against Jim Duggan and how angry and flabbergasted he was that he was made to compete and then lose in 5 seconds! That shit cracks me up every time I watch it. I still have the extras and matches to go through as well, so maybe that's in there. I just know they did put a lot of Austin moments on this sucker.

The only negative I can say about the piece was the time devoted to his movie The Condemned towards the end. It looked like it turned into a behind-the-scenes featurette for the movie there for a second. Way too much time spent on that movie, and interestingly not one mention of his fairly decent role in the The Expendables.

[img:$uid]http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r67/babybugz10457/stonecolddvd.jpg[/img:$uid]

it came out around 1- 3 years ago and it has all the same content EXCEPT for disc 4 . They just added a 4th disc and more bonus content milking a old product basically. I saw it while I was shopping today but didnt buy it because i'm pretty much buying the same thing over lol. I'm thinking there will be a new Rock one.. the last rock dvd came out around the time the stone cold one came out.

I'm about to cop this one right now....

and I think we still need a "Ultimate Collection" set for HBK like the one they did for Flair a couple of years ago. 3 or 4 discs of matches from 1984 to 2009 faint

and sets for Macho Man (ANOTHER ONE and one done BETTER), The Steiner Brothers, and Sting would be cool too

What WWE does behind the scenes cannot be overlooked
By Tommy Dreamer
Posted 10 hours ago


I was inspired to write this week's column after watching WWE Monday Night Raw, during which John Cena was a guest in Rowdy Roddy Piper's Piper's Pit. Cena sported a shirt bearing his latest slogan, Rise Above Hate — an anti-bullying initiative being undertaken by WWE.


In the society that we live in today, many media outlets seem to always focus on the negatives and all that is bad in the world. So of course, I have a media outlet now, and I am going to use it to tell the world what good WWE does behind the scenes and in front of the camera.


1. WWE has an open policy to send any former talent to rehab if they have any type of substance abuse problems. I don't know many companies that do this for former employees, nevermind current ones.
Whenever a wrestler is arrested, or dies tragically, many people are quick to blame the industry. I have a huge problem with this.


Did we, for example, try to shut down rock 'n' roll music when Elvis died? Is the music industry to blame when countless musicians overdose?


Is it the fault of Major League Baseball, the National Football League, the National Basketball Association or the National Hockey League when something happens to one of the players in those respective leagues?
Do we condemn Hollywood when an actor passes away tragically?


Drugs are a personal choice and there are only two ways out: death or total sobriety.
I have put several of my friends in WWE-sponsored rehab. The business of professional wrestling doesn't make someone do drugs; the disease of substance abuse makes you do drugs.


Personally, I have broken my neck and back. Some mornings, I am in so much pain that I can barely walk, but I choose not to take pain medication. My own mother has never had a wrestling match and has similar pains, where she can't walk. It is called old age.


Please don't misunderstand me, I am no better than anyone else. Nor am I trying to preach.


Rather I am simply stating that I am happy that WWE does that to help people get sober.


2. WWE has a great medical screening process. It helps to ensure that its athletes do not have heart problems or any other medical issues that may have gone undiagnosed.


I hate hearing of a high school player or college athlete collapsing, or passing away, because of a medical issue overlooked during regular physicals. The WWE also has a concussion-screening process. Above and beyond even that, it has its own doctors and trainers on staff at all of its events.


The company also has a "wellness program" that boasts stricter drug testing than you'll find at the Olympics. These things are done for not only the well-being of the performers, but also make WWE more socially responsible for their signed talent.


3. WWE offers royalty cheques every three months and has implemented programs to give the veterans or non-active performers ways to earn an income. I would love to see a bigger implementation of this, but legally, when your contract ends, WWE doesn't have to give you anything, yet it offers these programs to all of its former stars.


4. WWE does more Make-A-Wish program-sponsored appearances than any other company, or individual, worldwide. Words cannot describe the feeling you get when you are part of making the life of a sick child just a little bit better. It really does put your world into perspective. I have watched and participated in thousands of wishes being granted. Whatever amount of celebrity you have, that is the way to use it — putting smiles on people's faces.


Monday Night Raw is the longest running TV show in the history of television. Whether good or bad, it is still entertaining. It's too bad people don't just sit back and use it to escape their own personal realities and use it for its most basic form, entertainment. I mean, we aren't splitting the atom here — it is wrestling. Cheer your favourites, boo the people you don't like and sit back and be entertained.


Most of all, appreciate the hard work the men and woman do to entertain you. The outcomes are predetermined, but what the performers do to their bodies is not. There are no retakes, like in Hollywood movies or TV. There are no restarts like at some music concerts.


Rather, there are just a bunch of people that try to make you want to tune in from week to week as they follow their own dreams — just as I followed mine.


Thanks to WWE initiatives like the one Cena is promoting with his ring attire, as well as rehab and wellness programs, there is a living to be had in pro wrestling.


Thanks for reading.

I don't like when they keep putting out dvd's of the same wrestlers just put out one ultimate dvd and call it a day. I'll probably pick up the stone cold one eventually and HBK would be cool as well. I could do without macho man and the others you mention.

A nice pic of Austin and his current wife, from the new Blu-Ray compilation. I don't think I ever knew he was married again (or ever really paid attention to it, anyway). I guess she's all right lookin'. razz

I always thought Stone Cold was attractive so not surprised he got another wife lol. Is this his third

Marriage?

I’m glad stone cold address the time when he turn heel after the match with the rock I hated it. It’s interesting how even when both wrestlers left and came back stone cold and the rock always crossed paths some way. It would be interesting to see a dvd of Rock and Austin discussing that time period in a sit-down kind of like what Bret and Shawn did in their dvd recently. I never got that they hated each other I never got that vibe I don’t know why the fans at that time was trying to start a war with them Austin and Rock was getting real emotional talking about it on Austin’s dvd. I remember going to Madison Square Garden (I was such a groupie) to see their matches I miss those days. Cena and Orton are cool but these kids are really missing out.

Anyway I enjoyed austin’s dvd but I think it’s best to have both because some matches on the last one are not on this new one but the new one is the better one.

This is actually his 4th wife.

And, it's funny you mention the Hart/HBK DVD because from what I've heard, the next "Rivalries" DVD is scheduled to be Austin/Rock. There honestly isn't any other rivalry-type set that would make sense (that would be a hot seller like the HBK/Hart one) other than this one!

I really liked seeing the After Raw segment Rock and Austin had 2 weeks before their last Wrestlemania match. 2 of the best entertainers in wrestling PERIOD just having fun and entertaining the house crowd. I know there are tons of other After Raw segments featuring Austin that I wish were also included, but I under them including just the Rock's because every time those two got together, it was always gold.

I copped the last Stone Cold DVD set, but I never bothered to watch most of it. It looks like I'm going to have to pull it out and check it out now.

Even though it's gonna sell a ton, I don't think the Austin/Rock Rivalry DVD will be anywhere as good as the Bret/Shawn DVD. For the simple fact that there was no animocity or drama between Rock and Austin. They both really amired each other, they both respected each other, and they both just went out there entertained the people and made millions doing it.

They don't have over a decade of bad feelings between them like Bret and Shawn did. Austin and Rock seem to be pretty tight off camera.

JERKIN' EVERYTHING IN SIGHT!!!!!

Probably but I’m more interested in them just discussing that time period when they were both on top I think that would be a must buy in itself. I don’t expect it to top Bret and Shawn’s but I’m sure it will be just as good.

even if he did ..cena would still suck
