Rating: Summary: Excellent Review: Great DVD covers many unique stories in and out of the ring. * Stone Cold Calls it Quits!- A story about what exactly happened behind the scenes when Austin 'mysteriously' vanished from TV. * The Screwjob- Discussions from Vince, Gerald Brisco, Earl Hebner, and the man himself, HBK Shawn Michaels. During this story, HBK finally admits that he knew what was going to happen all along, after years of denying it. The actual match is included. * Are You Related To The Samoans?- Story about Rikishi and his family ties. He talks about how his family is involved in wrestling, how close they are, etc. * We're Off To See The Lizard!- Interesting story about William Regal and his fascination of reptiles. He has a few funny stories about how they get loose sometimes. Nice little story about something I didn't know about Regal. * Kurt Angle- He revisits the site of his Olympic Gold Medal victory in 1996. Atlanta, GA. He goes through and mentions how some things have changed, and little clips of him doing some amatuer wrestling is shown. *Trish Stratus- Get an up close look inside her house. Very large house, talks about how she has girlfrieds over, etc. Shows off some nice collections of magazines, wrestling figures. *Demise of WCW- Very indepth story of what happened, and how they got destroyed. All I can say is you have to watch this, because it's a great story. A history of the WCW World Heavyweight Championship is included. *Randy Orton- Three Generations of Ortons. Talks about his Grandfather, and his Father 'Cowboy' Bobby Orton. *Bonus Matches - Jimmy Snuka vs Ray Stevens from NY. - Bret Hart vs British Bulldog for the Intercontinental Championship from England. - Bret Hart vs Shawn Michaels for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship(the screwjob) from Canada. - Scott Steiner vs Booker T for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship, on the FINAL nitro ever from Florida.

Rating: Summary: The Inside Scoop Review: In 2002 WWE relaunched their Saturday Night line-up by canning recap show Excess and replacing it with a "behind the scenes" magazine showed appropriately named "Confidential." For the first real time in history the WWE pulled back the curtain and talked about the behind the scenes happenings of the industry examining everything from current top headlines to retrospectives of days bygone to behind the scenes looks at the wrestlers personal lives (all towing the company line of course). In all, it's a great look at the wrestling industry and the wrestlers that make it up. Presented here are some of the top segments from the program's first year on the airwaves PLUS 4 CLASSIC matches (some more classic than others) thrown in for extra. Here are the segments presented in Best of WWE Confidential Volume I: 1. Why Stone Cold Steve Austin left the WWE in June of 2002 2. The DX Invasion of Monday Nitro (with new footage of them interacting with the WCW fans) 3. Why WCW died 4. Eric Bishoff joining the WWE in July of 2002 5. The History of the WCW Title 6. A Look at the Great WCW Champions 7. Career Retrospective on Jimmy Snuka 8. Career and Life Retrospective on the late British Bulldog 9. WWE Cribs: Trish Stratus' House 10. Regal's Reptile Collection 11. Three Generations of Orton's 12. Rikishi talks about Yokozuna, the Samoan Family and Fa'a Samoa 13. WWE's Oldest Fan, 107 Year Old Ms. Gertrude 14. Booker T's Spinarooni Story with Lavon Kirkland 15. Kurt Angle revisits the Olympic training center 16. The Montreal Incident THE DVD Extras: As a bonus, WWE has included 4 bonus matches on this DVD, all historic for different reasons. For collectors, the bonus matches alone make this disc a keeper. Here they are!!! 1. Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka vs. "Crippler" Ray Stevens: 1982 from MSG. Snuka in his prime!!! So-so match where Snuka pretty much squashes Stevens. Okay for the novelty but match itself wasn't that hot. 2 stars. Too bad they didn't spring for the immortal Muracco match in the Cage. 2. Intercontinental Title Match: Bret "Hitman" Hart (champ) vs. "The British Bulldog" Davey Boy Smith. Summerslam '92 from Wembley Stadium in London, England. The Match of the Year from 1992. This match will forever be remembered as Bulldog's greatest match. Easily one of the most physical and well worked matches in history by two of the best. 5 stars easily and worth the price of the tape alone. 3. WWF World Title Match: Bret "Hitman" Hart (champ) vs. Shawn Michaels. Survivor Series 1997 from Montreal. THE MOST infamous match in wrestling history where Vince McMahon screwed Bret Hart out of the WWE Title. Presented here are Vince's and Shawn's side of the story. Match itself was alright (2 stars) but for historical value you don't get any better than this. 4. WCW World Title vs. U.S. Title Match: "Big Poppa Pump" Scott Steiner (champ) vs. Booker T (U.S. champ) from the Final Monday Nitro. Another so-so match big on historical value as this was the last title match held on the last Monday Nitro when McMahon bought out WCW. Booker closes out WCW on top by unifying the belts. 2 stars. ANALYSIS AND VERDICT: Overall this DVD may fly under people's radars simply for the fact that this is recycled TV footage. Many of the segments and profiles are keepers and some are so-so but overall the feature is a good watch and entertaining. At a minimum it is worth the rental if you are a fan of wrestling and wanna get more in depth with your favorite stars. The bonus matches are EASILY the price of the purchase, particularly the Bret vs. Bulldog match. The Bret-Shawn match and the Steiner-Booker match, while okay wrestling wise, are worth it easily for historical value. To sum, the purchase is worth it for the matches alone easily. The feature may or may not be worth the purchase however it is definitely worth the view if you have never seen it. Overall, whether you purchase, rent or borrow, this DVD is... Highly Recommended (a must for Hitman fans with two of his biggest matches on here)

Rating: Summary: wwe confidential vol, 1 Review: Thank you WWE for including the survivor series 97 screwjob where bret the "winny cry baby" hart lost to HBK. I was so sick and tired of Hart and all his complaining, way to go Vince, show him who's the boss! Besides that awesome footage, their is a bunch of behind the scenes stuff that is intersting to watch. Hopefully they will continue this series. Good job, and it's great to see MEAN GENE again!
