Surreal
I'm going to try to keep this brief, as I could probably write thousands of words about this. I am only going to review the portion where the two legends sit with Jim Ross for a face to face. These two guys, sitting next to each other, looking older... truly surreal. Bret's honesty during this and his emotion is beyond moving. All of the stories that he told in his book that sounded suspicious have all but been confirmed here. He puts it all out there for everyone to see. Shawn says things of self awareness that his 1998 self probably would have super-kicked him for saying. Interestingly, you still see moments of the old Shawn tripping over some fibs and trying to bite his tongue when Bret lets him know how he really felt.
Overall, very few punches are pulled, and you get the idea that these guys needed this more than the fans needed to see it (and we want to see it pretty badly). There are touching moments that would surprise fans and non-fans alike. Nothing like...
Shawn vs. Bret, Myth vs. Truth
First, this DVD release will end up probably being hated by a vast majority of wrestling fans that view it. Why? Because it shatters several myths that wrestling fans have enjoyed discussing for years. Things that fans have believed and thought were real are denounced by both men in the interview. So, if you prefer to hold onto the myths and legends surrounding these two, you may want to actually skip this release. With that said, this is easily one of WWE's best DVD releases ever. It's right up there with The Rise and Fall of ECW and for many will surpass it. This set is all about the lengthy sit down interview between the two men. It's not all about Montreal, and Jim Ross (the host) stresses that both men's careers weren't defined by that one night, it's a discussion on how both men came up in the wrestling business, first as friends, then bitter rivals and how they managed to make peace in the end. You'll hear...
