As the documentary on Disc 1 covers, Starrcade was created with the intention of being the NWA's version of the Super Bowl--a tradition that started out being an annual Thanksgiving event, but later--due to some finagling by one Vincent Kennedy McMahon--Starrcade being moved to the month of December and how the event evolved over the years. Particularly, I enjoyed hearing Dusty Rhodes talking about the changes Starrcade went through & how Big Dust--in his own words--talking about how in the early 90s when WCW bought out the NWA & how there were people behind the scenes who didn't know "jack-bleep" about wrestling.
As for the matches themselves, I would say it was a mostly excellent choice of matches. Of course--as with any WWE wrestling collection that has come out on DVD--you can always question some of the matches that get included. For instance, how the hell did Sting vs. Hogan from 1997 get included as being one of the Top 5 Starrcade matches of all-time. I could go on for days about how badly WCW botched that match, but I won't bother.
Focusing on the good, this DVD is Ric Flair heavy--which is always a good thing, as Flair in his prime could pull a 4 or 5 star match out of just about anybody; just see Flair's '88 battle with Luger. And Flair's epic battles with Harley Race, Dusty Rhodes, Big Van Vader and the list goes on.
Overall--if you enjoy the glory days of wrestling--then this is a must have. 5 stars
The documentary just reviews the history. Starcade was the biggest show and launched in the days before PPV. But it was still a super popular event. The documentary takes you year by year through the Jim Crocket days. But then unfortunately it skips over most of the rest of the years.
The matches are what makes this set. You can find the list on other reviews so I won't repeat them. The years skip around of the matches because it is a countdown of the 25 best matches from Starcade. Another added feature is before the different matches there are I guess you would call them hype from some of the best wrestlers from the era including Ric Flair, Tully Blanchard, Animal (from the Road Warriors), Jim Ross, and others.
Overall, a great set and exactly what I was looking for.
