RECAPITATION:
WWE Home Video 2-disc DVD set
Released 7/27/04 MAIN FEATURE:
An 80-minute documentary, chronicling Benoit’s career. It’s divided up into
the following chapters:
The Early Years
New Japan
ECW
WCW
WWE
The Injury
The Comeback
Royal
Rumble 2003
Royal Rumble 2004
Wrestlemania XX
Benoit started out in Canada, idolizing The Dynamite Kid.
He went to Japan, where he wrestled first as the masked “Pegasus Kid,” and later went topless as “Wild Pegasus.”
From there, he took a wrong turn and wound up in a Bingo Hall.
The only real historical error was when Benoit said that his first exposure in the
States came via ECW. Not so. Benoit was in WCW for a stretch back in 1993. One of the matches on this DVD
set is Benoit-Scorpio from SuperBrawl III, for fuck’s sake. Following that show-stealer of a match, Benoit teamed
with Bobby Eaton for a stretch, and I’m still seething with rage at the shaved apes who ran WCW for dropping the ball
with Benoit & Bobby. Imagine a 1993 series with B&B vs. Austin & Pillman. It would have been the best
tag team feud since Harts vs. Bulldogs, and catapulted both teams to the promised land. Instead, B&B were losing
TV matches to Tex & Shanghai (later The Godwinns) and The Cole Twins (Remember them? No you don’t. Why
do you lie?).
In Heyman’s defense, however, he believed in Benoit
like no other U.S. promoter before. When Benoit was in the quagmire that was 1997 WCW, Heyman wheeled and dealed in
hopes of getting Benoit to make a surprise appearance at the November To Remember 97 PPV. At one point, it was a done
deal…then it became undone.
They touched on Benoit’s relationship with Kevin Sullivan, as Sully hopscotched
in and out of power as WCW booker. They totally buried the Taskmaster. Ordinarily, I’d complain about Vince
gloating while violating WCW’s corpse yet again. But considering all the guys Sullivan held down, I’d file
this one under “poetic justice.”
Benoit also cryptically said he didn’t want to go into detail about
his “relationship” with Nancy because he had kids from a previous marriage and he wants to wait until they are
old enough to hear the poop from him, rather than have them hear about how he scored Nancy on the rebound from a DVD.
*** SPOILER ALERT: If your dad is Chris Benoit, you shouldn’t have read this paragraph. ***
Now for a surreality
check. I never thought I would EVER see this on a WWE DVD, but they showed the clip from Over The Edge 99 where Jim
Ross informed the world that Owen Hart had died. Benoit lamented his loss, and this led to the famous “Owen tribute
match” between Bret Hart and Benoit on Nitro later that year.
The Owen stuff was touching, surprising, and just
plain ballsy. Good show from all involved. Though it does raise one obvious question: Was Brian Pillman chopped
liver? (Well, yeah, I suppose the years of substance abuse probably DID chop up his liver something fierce, but that’s
not the point). I can’t tell you that Benoit was closer to Brian than he was to Owen, but in the eyes of the casual
fan, Benoit/Pillman were more closely associated than Benoit/Owen. After Pillman died in 1997, Benoit even wore Pillman’s
“Loose Cannon Rogue Horseman” symbol on his tights for months.
Next was a fun little bit of retcon spin-doctoring
where they glossed over Benoit’s WCW World Title win at Souled Out 2000. Benoit said he was so miserable in WCW
by that point, he didn’t even want the strap. The funny thing was that this statement was voiced-over the clip
of Kevin Nash taunting Benoit after his big win. (Earlier in the PPV, Nash booked himself to beat Terry Funk for the
WCW Commissionership. Nash vowed to make Benoit’s life “a living hell.”) I defy anyone to come
up with any clip that better illustrates everything that was wrong with WCW. The next night, Benoit, Eddie Guerrero,
Dean Malenko, and Perry Saturn showed up in the front row for Raw, and as far as I’m concerned, the Monday Night War
ended then and there. Anyway, the story here was that the WCW World Title win “didn’t count,” so as
to make his WMXX victory seem more special. Given the state of WCW at that point, it’s pretty hard to argue with
that.
By contrast, Benoit put over how important it was to him that he won the IC Title at his first Wrestlemania
(WM16, 4/2/00). Trivbit: That was the first time someone ever won the IC strap in their WM debut. Rob Van Dam
duplicated the feat two years later at WM18. It was kind of funny that they cooked the books to put the emphasis on
Benoit’s IC win, but completely left out the fact that it was actually a two-fall triple-threat match with Benoit and
Chris Jericho both challenging for Kurt Angle’s IC Title and Euro Title. Benoit pinned Jericho for the IC belt
in Fall 1, but Jericho pinned Benoit right back to claim the Euro strap. I guess they’re saving that part for
Jericho’s DVD.
Benoit talked about headlining Fully Loaded 2000 against The Rock. He told a funny story
about the Dusty finish of their match, where he got a bunch of voice mails from friends congratulating him on his “title
win,” only to get messages from the same people minutes later saying, “Um, never mind.”
Okay, time
to head for the finish line. He suffered a broken neck, came back good as new, won the 2004 Rumble, and went on to capture
the World Title at WMXX.
It also bears mention that Benoit put over Too Cold Scorpio, Booker T, and Kurt Angle as
guys who pushed him to up his game. Benoit is quick to share credit with other workers. The guy is the consummate
pro and every potential wrestler really needs to sit down and learn from this DVD.
So, did the guy ever get his damn
work visa?
MATCHES:
1) Pegasus Kid b Jushin Liger for the IWGP Jr. Hvt Title at 15:02 [NJPW,
8/19/90]. Benoit’s Japanese matches had three choices of commentary. The original Japanese commentary,
Michael Cole & Tazz, or Benoit himself & Dean Malenko & Tard Grisham. Notably, they picked the Smackdown
announce crew despite the fact that Benoit was on the Raw roster when this was released. It was absolutely the right
decision, but the interesting thing is that it shows management’s lack of faith in the eroding collective talent of
Raw geezers Jim Ross & Jerry Lawler. Anyway, the real story is that Tard Grisham is the worst fucking announcer
in the history of play-by-play. The guy doesn’t know a damn thing about wrestling. He mispronounced “Jushin,”
and asked if New Japan style was “Kinda like a lucha libre style, isn’t it?” After a pause, both Chris
and Dean said “No.” Their disgust could not be hidden. On the other hand, Cole and Tazz solidified
their rep as the best announcing team of the day. Tazz even identified referee Tiger Hatori, as well as Hiroshi Hase,
who accompanied Liger to the ring. Anyway, this match was cutting edge then and it still holds up to this day.
There was a great false finish tease as the gaudily-clad timekeeper guy menacingly raised his ring bell hammer for every two-count.
This bout had everything you’d expect from a high-impact juniors match. Suplexes, powerbombs, and lots of
high-flying, all pulled off without a hitch by two of the best to ever step inside a wrestling ring. Liger hit the world’s
greatest flip senton for a nearfall, followed by PK rolling up a powerbomb attempt for a nearfall of his own. PK leveled
Liger with a lariat, stuck him with a tight tombstone, and finished him off with a legdrop off the top. Excellent match
that had the dignified Japanese crowd marking out like stock footage from Godzilla flicks. (Kerry)
2) Too Cold Scorpio b Chris Benoit at 18:20 [WCW SuperBrawl III, 2/21/93]. Disappointingly,
we didn’t get to rock out to Scorpio’s theme song. I actually tried to do a Google search for the lyrics,
but it came up bupkiss. The Scorpio dance mix is too obscure even for the Goog. From disappointing to just plain
bizarre, this match had long gaps of silence from the broadcast booth. For some reason, they deleted Jesse Ventura’s
color commentary from the PPV broadcast. It just might have something to do with the fact that The Body sued Vince for
royalties from Home Videos with his commentary. Ventura beat McMahon in a falls-count-anywhere-in-the-judicial-system
match to the tune of $800,000-plus. Anyway, Scorp and Benoit clicked like legos, and this was a fast-paced high-impact
match where everything looked fantastic. Great creative finish, too. Ring announcer Gary Michael Capetta did that
“countdown to time-limit” that he did better than anyone in the history of the biz. With one second left
on the clock (according to the storyline of the match, anyway), Scorp rolled up Benoit for three. HELL of a good match.
(Kerry)
3) Wild Pegasus b Black Tiger in the Super J Cup semifinal at 10:24
[NJPW, 4/16/94]. More fun from Tard Grisham, who I swear was coming on to Benoit at this point.
He said “You’re a handsome man, Chris,” and marveled at the fact that between then and now, Chris has “more
muscle mass.” Uncomfortable silence followed. Oh yeah, and Malenko had to actually EXPLAIN the concept of
a “semifinal” match to Tard. You know how the winners of semifinal matches meet in the finals? Well,
Tard didn’t. Cole and Tazz were tons better, though Cole’s attention deficit disorder did kick in, causing
him to wax poetic about the winged horsey airbrushed on Benoit’s tights. Not to be outdone, Tazz screwed the pooch
by saying “(Benoit and Guerrero) went to ECW together.” Actually, Benoit had already won and lost the ECW
Tag Title before Eddie showed up in Philly. Now before you bombard me with hate mail for ripping on a commentator who
made an honest mistake, I remind you that the team Benoit & Malenko beat for the ECW straps was Sabu & Tazz.
Anyway, this was a good match, but not on the level of the other two Japanese matches. (David)
4) Wild Pegasus b Great Sasuke to win the Super J Cup tournament at 18:48 [NJPW, 4/16/94].
I fucking hate Tard Grisham. You should, too. So should your family and friends. Here’s the latest
from the Tard Grisham quotebook:
“Was there a rivalry between you guys (New Japan) and sumos?”
“(If
it isn’t broke), don’t break it.”
”Does the Super J Cup have a heavyweight division?”
(“J” stands for junior, by the way.)
Tard also mispronounced “Sasuke” several times, despite
the fact that both Benoit and Malenko kept saying it correctly.
On the other side of the studio, Tazz and Cole did
this match proud. Tazz was both insightful and funny, saying he didn’t like Sasuke because when they wrestled,
Sasuke split Tazz’s lip. Cole got off the line of his career. Upon observing the NJ roster kneeling at ringside
(as is customary for big matches), Cole quipped, “I think the rest are kneeling, but Malenko is standing up.”
Anyway, this was a damn good match. A great showcase of Sasuke highspots like the handspring hilo, inside-out suplex,
and missle dropkick. Sasuke was the star, which was good because he looked strong despite the fact that the other guy
was going over. WP wound up winning after a SWEET gut-wrench superplex off the top. The ringside wrestlers filled
the ring in celebration, further getting over the magnitude of the win. (Kerry)
5) Chris Benoit NC Sabu at 1:32 [ECW November To Remember 94, 11/5/94].
This was the famous match where Sabu suffered a broken neck, kicking off the “Crippler” persona for Benoit.
I don’t know what was more surreal: Watching an ECW match with the little WWE logo in the lower left corner, or the
fact that they actually dubbed Benoit’s first WWWFE theme music in as he walked to the ring. The hell? Anyway,
back by popular demand, here comes the The Complete And Total List Of Every Move In This Match:
1. Knee to the midsection
2. Front-suplex throw onto the top rope (Someone really needs to name that damn thing)
3. Single-leg lift into a throw
Disappointingly, they didn’t show the full thing as it played out at the ECW Arena. Too Cold Scorpio was brought
in as a spur-of-the-moment substitute. Benoit-Scorp tore it up in wrestling to a double-countout. (Waldo)
6) Chris Benoit b Al Snow at 14:36 [ECW Double Tables, 2/4/95].
One of wrestling’s buried treasures, and easily the best match of Snow’s perennially underrated career.
This match was a top-three finalist in the Lariat’s “Match Of The Year” voting for 1995. Even referee
John Finnegan sold Benoit’s chops, which was one of those little inspired touches that made ECW so much fun to watch.
Snow got himself over with the pro-Benoit Bingo Hall by hitting a deadeye Ohtani-style springboard dropkick to the back of
Benoit’s head. Joey Styles fired off one of his first quotable one-liners by saying this match had “more
wrestling in five minutes than on any PPV of the past five years.” If I want to be a prick, I’ll suggest
that between Flair, Steamboat, Austin, Pillman, Liger, Bret, HBK, and Savage, that statement is a half-truth. Still
though, the point was made and the Kool-Aid went down easy. Snow kicked out of the diving headbutt for a nail-biting
nearfall. Snow hit a wheelbarrow suplex for a nearfall of his own, which Styles called a “Snowplex.”
Benoit finally put Snow away with a picture-perfect Dragon suplex. After the bell, Benoit planted Snow with a NICE powerbomb.
Snow was stretchered out, furthering his “Crippler” persona. A must-see. This match alone is worth
the price of the DVD set. (FRITZ)
7) Chris Benoit b Eddie Guerrero in the 8:35 that aired (no opening bell) [WCW Nitro, 10/16/95].
This was the best Nitro match of 1995, so assbag announcers Eric Bischoff and Steve McMichael talked about the WCW hotline,
the Braves going to the World Series, and one of the worst PPVs ever, Halloween Havoc 95 (the one where Giant fell off the
roof of Cobo Hall). Anyway, this match had a solid storyline that saw Benoit work over Eddie’s right arm with
a series of creative hammerlock spots. Eddie had a brief hope spot with a second-rope springboard into a tornado DDT.
Benoit got his knees up to block the frog splash and drilled Eddie with the SICKEST powerbomb you’ll ever see in your
life. Finish saw Eddie throw a right hand with his bad arm, allowing Benoit to hit the Dragon suplex for the pin.
Very good match, with very bad commentary. Not Tard Grisham bad, but bad nonetheless. (Kerry)
8) Chris Benoit b “Taskmaster” Kevin Sullivan in a FCA match at 9:58 [WCW GAB 96,
6/16/96]. WCW tried many times to imitate ECW’s popular brand of violence, but this was the first time
they got it right. Benoit and Sullivan had a great brawl in the mens room. Color man Dusty Rhodes excitedly squealed
in delight upon seeing that a woman followed them into the mens room. Play-by-play assbag Tony Schiavone snuck in a
shot at Brian Pillman (“Pillman put his tail between his legs”), who actually worked Bischoff into firing him
and wound up signing with the WWF. RIP, Brian. You were a king among men. Anyway, a good brawl ended when
Benoit set up a table on the top rope and superplexed Sullivan off of it for the pin. Afterward, Arn Anderson stormed
the ring. In the weeks leading up to this match, Arn and Sullivan formed an “Alliance To End Hulkamania,”
with hints that Arn backed Sully in his feud against Benoit, even though Benoit was a fellow Horseman. Arn teased attacking
Benoit, but instead helped Benoit lay in the boots to Sully. The crowd went apeshit for a classic Horsemen mugging.
Good match, good angle. (David)
9) Booker T b Chris Benoit in the finals of a best-of-seven series to decide #1C to the WCW
TV Title at 16:20 [6/14/98]. This was actually their EIGHTH match, as the first “Match #7” ended
when Bret Hart screwed Booker, but Benoit refused the tainted win. WCW’s, um, important-suit-guy-who-had-some-title-of-power-that-I-can’t-seem-to-remember-at-the-moment
J.J. Dillon ordered that match be thrown out, and booked the decider for this PPV. B vs. B was the best-wrestled feud
of the big two in all of 1998. I still think it’s kind of ironic that the prize for winning this clinic was a
shot at the third-most-prestigious singles championship in WCW. Anyhoo, this was another fast-paced back-and-forth gem,
even though the announcers pretty much gave away the end by beating to death the fact that Benoit could have already won the
series if not for his honour (Canadian spelling). Finish saw Book hit the world’s greatest missile dropkick for
the pin. Bobby Heenan capped off the replay by hilariously stating, “I knew it would go eight.” Just
in case you wondering, Book went on to beat Fit Finlay for the TV Title later in the show. (Kerry)
10) Bret Hart b WCW TV champion Chris Benoit in a non-title match in the 23:03 that aired
(there were two commercial breaks that chopped up the match) [Owen Tribute Match, WCW Nitro, 10/4/99]. Why in
the HELL was this not a TV Title match?? What, did Bret not win his own best-of-seven series to earn a shot? Ah,
don’t listen to me. Harley Race (one of the last people to ever talk to Owen) was guest ring announcer and the
heat and emotion was simply off the charts. This just has to be seen to be believed. Benoit ultimately tapped
to the sharpshooter to end one of the most emotional matches you’ll ever see. It’s more than a couple “bests,”
too.
* Best match ever on Nitro
* Best match of Bret’s WCW career
* Best match of Benoit’s WCW career
* Best TV match of 1999
A must-see. This match alone is worth the price of the DVD set. (FRITZ)
11) Chris Benoit b Sid Vicious by tapout to win the vacant WCW World Title at 14:50.
Arn Anderson was special referee. [WCW Souled Out 2000, 1/16/00]. Screw the match, I’m gonna do a write-up
on the story behind the booking of this main event. Okay, it was originally supposed to be a rematch from Starrcade
99, with heel World champion Bret Hart defending against Bill Goldberg. There was an angle on a live Thunder where Goldberg
was supposed to bust out the window’s of the NWO's limo. Goldy had a small pipe in his hand which did the damage.
However, Goldberg sucked at that, too. The pipe flew out of his hand and into the front seat upon at first smash.
Even Goldberg’s walnut brain realized that he couldn’t exactly stop to open the door and retrieve his pipe, so
he thunk up the bright idea of using his own hand to break the rest of the glass. The result? Dipshit shredded
a tendon in his arm and sat out on the shelf for half a year. So then the new Souled Out main event was set up as Bret
vs. Sid for the World Title, with the undercard largely consisting of Benoit vs. Jeff Jarrett in a one-night best-of-three
series for Jarrett’s U.S. Title. Sadly, it was then discovered that Greenberg had ended Bret’s career with
a concussion-inducing superkick at SC99. Okay, NEW new main event for the World Title: Sid vs. No One. As part
of the build to the U.S. Title match, douchebooker Vince Russo booked Jarrett to wrestle three matches on a single Nitro against
various “legends” (read: has-beens). Jarrett faced Tito Santana, George Steele, and Jimmy Snuka. Via
circumstances far too convoluted to accurately recount, Snuka hit the Superfly splash off the top of the cage, giving JJ a
legit concussion. So in the days before the PPV, they had no World champion or U.S. champion. Does that mean that
the TV champion was then top dog by default? Ladies and gentlemen, the new #1 man in the company, Hacksaw Jim Duggan.
He found the TV Title in a trash can and was then automatically declared champion by way of “finders keepers,”
but I’ll save that story for Duggan’s DVD. Anyway, they somehow ended up booking Benoit vs. Sid for the
vacant WCW World Title. Oh yeah, and in the weeks before this match, Benoit and Sid were actually allies against the
new new NEW NWO of Bret, Jarrett, Hall, and Nash. To emphasize the importance of this match, the locker room emptied
out into the aisle to watch the proceedings. Such luminaries as David Flair, Tank Abbott, Asya, and The Mamalukes gave
this title bout the rub it so desperately needed. This was Benoit’s final WCW match, and a year later at WCW’s
1/01 PPV, Sid hit a career best when he brutally broke his leg during a match. Okay, time to talk about the match.
Benoit won with the Crossface. (David)
12) Chris Benoit b William Regal at 12:48 [Brian Pillman Memorial Show 2000, 5/25/00].
Strange commentary from Michael Cole and Dr. Tom Prichard. Prichard talked about how he showed this match to all his
students because “there are no wasted movements; everything means something.” Cole and DTP toed the
kayfabe line, alternating between analyzing how the match was put together, and calling it like a “real” match.
It was weird, but in a good way. Awesome, awesome match. Regal bled hardway from a Benoit headbutt, which upped
the drama quotient to perfection. Only knock against this match was that Regal tapped too quick to the Crossface, but
that’s just IMO. Dave Meltzer pointed out that this was “the match that saved Regal’s job.”
After months of battling a substance abuse problem, Vince was ready to throw in the towel on Regal. But this match showed
that when he was in there with someone who understood him, His Lordship could rock the house. Best match of Regal’s
career, easy. I daresay it belongs in Benoit’s top 20, too. A must-see. This match alone is worth
the price of the DVD set. (FRITZ)
13) Kurt Angle b Tag champion Chris Benoit in a cage match by escaping the cage at 14:30 [WWF
Raw, 6/11/01]. Heel World champion Steve Austin 2001 was on color. Benoit & Chris Jericho had defeated
Austin & HHH for the Tag straps a few weeks prior to this, which started the build to the Austin vs. Benoit vs. Jericho
triple-threat at KOTR01. Even though the WWF’s decision to turn Austin heel single-handedly kicked off their business
nosedive that continues to this day, dammit if Stone Cold wasn’t still entertaining as hell in the role. Anyway,
this match totally rules you, bitch. Unforgettable spot saw Angle miss the most beautiful moonsault you’ll ever
see in your life, from off the top of the cage. Benoit dished out six German suplexes, let Angle run into the cage,
then gave him three more. Austin jumped off headset and cut off Benoit’s attempted escape through the door.
This led to one of the most edge-of-your-seat spots you’ll ever see, when Benoit did a diving headbutt off the top of
the goddamn cage. Benoit would later point to this moment as the smoking gun that sent him off on the Year-Long-Broken-Neck-Vacation.
Seriously, I picture this Club Med type place where all these wrestlers with broken necks stayed at for their off-years.
Rhyno partied there. So did Lita. Austin has his own suite. Now it’s Test’s turn. Anyway,
Benoit finally kicked the door into Austin’s face and tried to escape again, but Angle snagged him in an ankle lock.
Benoit hit a SWEET enziguiri, but Austin managed to go Gordy on Benoit, allowing Angle to escape the cage. Best cage
match ever on free TV, and better than 99% of PPV matches in 2001. A must-see. This match alone is worth the price
of the DVD set. (FRITZ)
14) WWE champion Kurt Angle b Chris Benoit to retain the title at 19:48 [WWE Royal Rumble
03, 1/19/04]. The most competitive title match you’ll ever see ended when Benoit tapped to a tenacious-as-hell
ankle lock. This was one of the five best PPV matches ever, and I’d even go as far as to say it was thus far,
THE BEST MATCH OF EITHER GUY’S CAREER. Now think about the ground covered by that statement. A must-must-MUST-see.
This match alone is worth the price of the DVD set. (FRITZ) 15) Chris Benoit beat HHH and Shawn Michaels in a triple-threat to win the World Title when HHH tapped to the Crossface at
24:47 [WWE Wrestlemania XX, 3/14/04]. Best WM main event of all time and one of the best-booked matches I’ve
ever seen. A must-see. This match alone is worth the price of the DVD set. (FRITZ)
OTHER FEATURES:
The Neck Injury. A short piece that showed Chris and Nancy visiting
with the sawbones who un-crippled the Crippler. The doc took a piece of Benoit’s pelvis and put it in his neck.
Does that make him a dickhead? HAW HAW HAW!
“The Crossface Collection” [Confidential, 1/24/04].
A short feature on the Crippler Crossface. Nice piece, with emphasis on the fact that Benoit could slap it on either
side from anywhere at anytime.
“Raw Magazine Cover Shoot” [Confidential, 4/3/04]. They stuck the
poor guy in a freezer and spritzed him with water. Sadistic bastards! Kind of interesting to see Benoit away from
his usual surroundings, but nothing earth-shattering.
EASTER EGG: On Disc 2, page 2, highlight the tooth in the lower right corner of your screen and click. A brief,
funny soundbite airs of Chris Benoit’s dad revealing the true story of how Chris lost the tooth.
Overall over-analysis: Simply freakin’ awesome. For all the shots I take
at the current WWE, they put DVDs together better than anyone in the whole damn entertainment industry. There are enough
great Benoit matches for another SET of box sets, and I was marginally disappointed that they didn’t include his Edmonton
homecoming for Backlash this year, but then it dawned on me that that would be one hell of a place to kick off Benoit II.
Nothing left to say, other than to empty out my clipboard one last time: A must-see. (Pick something) alone is
worth the price of the DVD set. Now add it all up and this is the biggest bargain of the year. The only question
left is: Will Eddie’s DVD top it? This is a great year to be a wrestling fan with a DVD player, my friends.
This
Observer’s Thumb……………..is WAY up.
