Good, but not great DVD for Kane fans.

"Apparently I'm not alone in my feelings for this set.



This review contains one spoiler, but since it from a match that happened many years ago, I'm not sure if that's relevant. I figured I had better mention it, anyway.



I, myself am a huge Kane fan and this is a good, but not great Kane DVD set. It's more of a match retrospective than a career retrospective. And some of the matches chosen are odd choices. Overall, the production is great, and other than one match where the sound is messed up (it probably was during the television broadcast, as well) it's tops all around as far as quality.



As far as match choices, I know that wins and losses aren't really a big deal in Kane's career, but some matches that they went with were just weird choices. A lot of losses on this set. An example: They wanted a match from when he teamed with Undertaker (when Taker was doing the biker thing, which I kind of liked, admittedly) and they picked the tables match with them against Edge & Christian and The Dudleys... a match that Kane and Taker lost and honestly didn't fare that well in (and were out of character, staying out of the match for several minutes due to chair shots, something that neither Kane nor Taker usually had much trouble with, so that the other teams would wrestle a while). Why wouldn't they show one of the numerous matches that they won and actually put the team over, since they're supposed to be so "dominant?" Odd. Even the tag match between Kane and Taker against HHH and Steve Austin would have been a better choice than my example. At least that match had some good psychology (Kane being injured and isolated from his partner). They still lost, if I remember correctly, but at least it was a better match. I don't mind a good tables match, or ladder match or whatever, but this one wasn't even that good, IMO.



There were several other choices like this as well, where there was a much better match that could have been chosen over what they went with.



Just odd choices in some cases...



I'm happy to see one of the WWF/WWE's best workers finally get a long-overdue retrospective DVD, but I can't help but think that they could have done better. There are a lot of good matches on here, but a lot of asking the question "why did they put this match on here? Why not this one???"



If you're a Kane fan, you'll love it (and I do), but it's not perfect.



While I still await a true career retrospective DVD, with behind-the-scenes footage and commentary from his peers, this is a great way to feed that hunger while I wait.



I still recommend it for Kane fans, as it's got some great moments and matches, but prepare to be puzzled if you're at all familiar with Kane's history in the ring."

Packaging of DVD

"I got the Kane DVD today and I was very disappointed with the packaging because they put it in sleeves instead of hubs! I hope they don't start doing this, I just have to be more careful with it."
