Monday Night War Debate DVD
This is the second in the box of seven DVDs I picked up last week and you can win them. Check out the details right here. This one was filmed the day of the 2015 Royal Rumble (January 25, 2015) in Philadelphia and runs about two hours and twenty five minutes.
So you’ve probably heard of something like this before. There is no secret that the Monday Night Wars have been discussed to death. And I mean to death to death. Between the full length documentary with the talking heads to the borderline obnoxious twenty part documentary on the Network. The subject has been covered and there isn’t much left to be talked about.
Therefore, it wasn’t the most thrilling thing in the world when I pulled this DVD out of the box I got last week. This time around though it’s a one on one debate between two of the main names in the Monday Night War with Eric Bischoff and Bruce Prichard talking about the whole thing. Throw in Chris Jericho as moderator and you have the makings for something interesting.
They do mention that there isn’t much that you haven’t heard before and that’s kind of nice. Other than a few stories, you’re not going to get much new information out of this but it’s cool to have a different kind of format and a non-WWE version of the story. The two of them are clearly friends (or at least friendly with each other) and there are only a few arguments between the two.
There are some interesting points and Jericho adds a nice perspective from a talent who was on both sides. The whole thing was an entertaining way to spend a few hours and while nothing new was added, it was a fun event. Jericho is there to make things that much more entertaining and the whole thing was perfectly fine for what it was.
