From Silvervision.co.uk

Curt Hennig, better known as Mr. Perfect, competed for the American Wrestling Association, World Wrestling Entertainment and World Championship Wrestling. Born the son of legendary Larry "The Axe" Hennig, it was perhaps inevitable that Curt would want to follow in his father's footsteps. But Mr. Perfect lived up to his moniker becoming one of the best in-ring technicians of his generation. A former AWA World Heavyweight Champion, he was also the longest-reigning Intercontinental Champion of the 1990s. Loved by fans and friends alike, Mr. Perfect entertained in and out of the ring, earning him the honour of induction into the WWE Hall of Fame. This two-disc set relives his life and career, from his early start as a second-generation star through AWA, WWE, and WCW. Some of his greatest matches and vignettes are included. Who was this man? Here's a hint... he was absolutely "perfect".

Movie Review: Bout time he has a DVD to show his amazing career
Summary: 5 Stars

Curt Hennig was just like his wrestling nickname, "perfect" in every aspect of his wrestling style. He got his start in a wrestling family with his father Larry `the Axe' Hennig, went through Verne Gagne's training camp, and gained experience in the AWA, reaching the pinnacle as the AWA Heavyweight Champion. But Curt Hennig's biggest spotlight would shine in WWE, when he became Mr. Perfect, a two-time Intercontinental Champion and 2007 inductee in the WWE Hall of Fame. This two-disc set relives his career, from his early start as a second-generation star through AWA, WWE, and WCW, through his shocking death at age 44. Some of his greatest matches will be collected on a second disc.

Movie Review: 5 stars, only for the concept of it.
Summary: 5 Stars

I just finished watching the documentary. Isn't worth 5 stars for the match selection. Ten?... TEN?... Can't believe they didn't include the Loser leaves Town match against Flair. The summer slam '91 match against Bret Hart can be found on other dvd sets, and the Summer Slam 93 match against Shawn Michaels as well. Why does WWE keep putting out repeat matches on dvds?(It's getting ridiculous!) Not to mention that 3 Bret Hart matches is a little repetitive. Only one WCW match isn't enough. I can think of several WCW bouts he had that never made the cut. Remember his rivalry with DDP? Would of loved to have seen one ddp match. Why can't we get rare matches we've never seen, or haven't seen in ages? Sure there is some on here, but how about another disc? The documentary is very good. But I felt it was a little rushed in some spots. Touching to hear the story about how he saved Wade Bogg's life while they we're hunting. His death wasn't really covered in detail, But all in all this set is worth $20, I don't think it's worth $30, if they'd added more matches it would be. Sorry to burst the bubble of any of you Mr. Perfect fans, but this set should of had more.
