WWE - Royal Rumble 2008 (DVD)

* THE ROAD TO WRESTLEMANIA How cliche, but Royal Rumble truly is the event that marks the road to World Wrestling Entertainment's premiere pay-per-view show, WrestleMania. 2008 marks the 21st royal rumble match where the winner will go on to face either the WWE or World champion at WrestleMania XXIV, that's 24 to you and me. But of course it's not all about the royal rumble match itself, there is also an undercard. Without further ado.. * WHAT'S IN AN UNDERCARD? Now I'm guessing that most of the people who ordered this on Sky Box Office for its £15 price tag were probably not purchasing it on the opening matches.

I'm a huge Wrestling fan, have been since I was a kid, and probably will always be, most people will say their favorite PPV event is Wrestlemania, The "Grandaddy of them all" and I for one agree, it doesn't get much more prestigious in Wrestling than to headline Wrestlemania, however for me the Annual Royal Rumble comes a close second in terms of prestige, and in fact I would say the Royal Rumble is the more action packed, exciting PPV ( Mainly due to the Main event itself ) There have been 22 Annual Royal Rumbles and the 2008 was the 21st, the PPV itself features Championship matches and feature matches just like any other PPV, however the ...  Read the complete review

ROYAL RUMBLE 2008 was a good solid pay per view with many suprises. Too avoid dissapointment I will only give the matches and not the results in case you want to see this pay per view for yourself. RIC FLAIR V MVP The legend Ric Flair was told by Vince McMahon that the next time he lost a match he must retire. This led a lot of younger talent wanting to have the honour of retiring Flair which set up this match with MVP. A good opening bout with lots of old school moves. CHRIS JERICHO V JBL JBL'S first pay per view for a long time fighting Jericho for no apparent reason. A very ordinary match considering Jericho was involved and JBL ...  Read the complete review
