Is that the thing where he basically E-books the return of ECW?

Yea its pretty good but I wouldn't really go out of my way seeing it. Its pretty basic stuff like the roster/ December to Dismember/ tag division/ TV title division etc. It is a fun watch but I really wouldn't reccomend spending money on it.

Like I watched it once and ill probably never watch it again.

I'm with CV6. I actually stopped watching it half way through. It's boring and redundant.

I saw it and his bookings were far below what you'd expect from a WON Booker of the Year since 2004, considering it's basic stuff that anybody with brains and a knowledge of what works in wrestling would have done. CM Punk vs a guy who drinks beer?! No fucking way!

It was pretty basic but it made sense. I mean really there wasn't a lot to do with the DVD anyways. I mean if he had out there booking he would probably get slagged also. I liked the booking but it just wasn't that desirable of a watch.


*spoilers*

I mean the Flair vs Orton angle was like the best thing he had going but really it wouldn't matter cause Vince would never let him run the small venues and stuff anyways like he said on the DVD.

But yea its not any different than what anyone could do booking wise with what they explained. There was some good stuff but a lot of the expected stuff.

The best part is when they tell him to name something like 20 workers that he wants for the show and no more, and then he goes on to name like, 28 guys.

Dude, I wouldn't buy anything with anyone that's essentially E-booking. Just read the stuff Simon does, or if I ever decide to, okay, I won't be arrogant, but Simon is pretty good.

If you want some message board esque stuff, watch Secrets of the Ring with Raven, volume 4, he talks about being heel, it's very good.

Yes, everyone read my ROH 2008 diary in the Writing Department. With that plug out of the way, I'd get all the Raven Secrets of the Ring stuff, just so so awesome and informative.

I also happen to think the Cabana/Punk and Joe/Punk shoots are must own.

The Joe and Punk shoot interview should be a must own for any Wrestling fan. There were so many good laughs in watching that. Nothing was better than Homicide pissing on CM Punk and Ricky Reyes transformation to Rick Noon.

Or Punk pretending to be Homicide, calling Gabe, and cancelling the Kojima match before Final Battle 2003.

The Cabana/Punk shoot features a story about a 20 man all-Doink battle royal and Cabana demanding to face a midget since his scheduled opponent no-showed.
