pro wrestling fan: See, wrestling DVD's are now back on top because best buy isn't giving away ufc DVD's with the purchase of the video game anymore.
mma fan: Wrestling DVD's are back on top now because best buy is selling them at half price this week.

Speaking of WWE videos, I really need to get this off my chest regarding the new Macho Man DVD.
MATT STRYKER & MARIA SUCK!

Everyone knows it was the 25th anniversary but you.

"the 25th anniversary of Wrestlemania will be next year..."
but the 25th Wrestlemania was correctly held this year, and we didn't enter the 21st century until 2001. and your microcock must feel huge successfully pointing out the obvious to people who don't give two shits about it either way.

Where are the TNA bitches that were taking shots at WWE a couple months ago when they had 2 titles in the top ten? That was because they had not released anything new at that time. See how it works? They release DVD's and they kick ass. TNA releases them and no one notices.

Yeah ok, Matt STRIKER knows a hell of a lot more about wrestling than you do, do you ever listen to his commentary on ECW? His Macho Man impersonations on the DVD are great
Posted By: Bill (Guest) on June 11, 2009 at 05:36 PM
wow,the rock dvd still up there..wonder how many sold of that dvd...

Reeks of wellness?
I hoke not.

Thanks to Wikipedia, Jeff Hardy and Chris Jericho have had all the titles are in anyones' book, that means they are the best in WWE. But, Jericho does not have two strikes against him and Jeff Hardy stepped away from WWE to TNA then back to TNA. I would also like to type about food. PF Changs rocks!

So every TNA employee purchased their required King of The Mountain Jeff Jarret DVD?

The Times Of India also interviewed Kane, discussing the road to becoming a successful wrestler...
Yeah, he shared a story he heard from a successful wrestler. Take THAT, Kane.

nice too see how Christian already has some pull back in the E. There's some backstage politics.
Posted By: Guest#0991 (Guest) on June 11, 2009 at 07:53 PM
Kane is comming to Bollywood.
Yeah.

Uh Oh. I hope Edge and Christian aren't being taken off the road this weekend due to Wellness Violations. If so, would this be Strike 2 for Edge?
Posted By: Guest#5655 (Guest) on June 11, 2009 at 08:45 PM
Weekends off rule!

Isn't a hip-toss using more strength than a body slam? So, you're feeding Hogan's ego. Nice.

LOL , good one dude....
Now more than ever weekends off rule!

Kane says that without Undertaker, his career wouldn't be where it is today; Jobber To The Stars. He's jobbing to almost everyone, even tiny Rey Mysterio.

It's funny I just bought the Hell in the cell DVD at Best Buy for $13... It along with some of the older titles listed above were on sale 1/2 off. Could be a big reason they're back in the top 10
