I have been a wrestling fan since 1996 and have watched all kinds of wrestling. I have a wrestling DVD/VHS collection spanning over 50 all together. This is the most complete and accurate review of this DVD you will find. I hope you find this review helpful; remember to vote helpful or not helpful. (Note-Each DVD I review has a "Match of the DVD" award somewhere in it.)
Before They Were WWF Superstars
This is a very fun DVD if you liked WWE Confidential that came on in 2002-2004 or The Best of WWE Confidential, Vol. 1. You get to hear a quick history about each one of the superstars featured in this DVD. It features a lot of clips of Mexican wrestling, OMEGA wrestling, and all your big time promotions. Some of the profiles are more interesting than others, but you'll still enjoy this DVD a lot.
You'll hear about Kurt Angle's Olympic and College day in my favorite part of this disk. Stacy Keibler will tell about how she got into WCW by winning a Nitro Girl contest. Edge and Christian will tell about their long-time friendship. They even go to their original school and visit. The kids at the school are funny and are marking out for Edge and Christian. Lita tells about her days in Mexico and shows off her collection of Mexican wrestling masks. Spike Dudley's love of wrestling is told. He tells how he played Football instead of Hockey, just so he could watch wrestling in the morning. You'll hear about Molly Holly's power lifting days and how she broke records with her lifting. You'll also hear about how she became Ms. Madness in WCW. The Hardy Boyz tell about their struggles in the beginning and how their Dad would give them a rough time about wrestling. Bradshaw and Billy Gunn also speak on how they got into wrestling. William Regal talks about his days in Blackpool, England, and how he was wrestling since age 15.

Summary of Before They Were WWE Superstars 2
The WWE is all about spectacle and illusion, so the idea of putting out a real look at the lives of its superstars sounds, on paper, like a cheesy bore. Surprisingly, Before They Were WWE Superstars is hardly boring; in fact, it's the best non-pay-per-view DVD the organization has ever released. The documentary details the rise of 12 midlevel names (Kurt Angle is the only huge figure profiled) and the strange, often brutal roads they took to make it as pro wrestlers. Besides Angle, William Regal, Edge and Christian, Lita, Spike Dudley, Mighty Molly, the Hardy Boyz, Bradshaw, Stacy Keibler, and Billy Gunn tell their stories (often punctuated by comments from their parents or siblings), and all are fascinating vignettes. Say what you want about pro wrestling, but the drive and determination displayed by these people is not only impressive, but uplifting. --Dave McCoySports DVD Video
