Wow! A ton of NWA matches and WCW matches...a must buy! I'm also thinking of purchasing the Starrcade DVD!

Best Buy is gonna have extra DVDs that come with it

[jasonjaconetti]

I have seen these and they are very interesting. Also coming is the Saturday Night's Main Event set.

Apparently this set, plus three exclusive discs are going to be available at Best Buy, and then all six discs will be available individually.

It looks like the Wrestling Observer is reporting that the Best Buy 6-disc is not coming out, but that they will all 6 discs on sale for $12.99 each, as well as the 3-Disc set for $34.99.

But, as usual, I will wait to see what the print ad for Best Buy says tomorrow morning, because their website has NO info at all.

Are these available in the UK?

Not sure. Best Buy's site is pretty useless...and I haven't seen any other info out there.

The Starcade DVD is worth it

[jasonjaconetti]

I got the Starrcade set the other day and it is good. I also picked up the 6 discs at Best Buy yesterday. They were $12.99 each and if you bought 2 you saved $10 So bought all 6 and saved $30. which made them like $7-$8 each. Not a bad deal, eventhough I had seen all them on 24-7. The matches are a nice addition.
