My Review of the WWE Attitude Era DVD Cover

The WWE Attitude Era DVD will be released in 10 days! There is not a content listing yet, but we do know what the cover will look like. I like how the cover includes everyone from the Attitude Era. Or does it include everyone? I am going to take a look at everyone on the cover and see if they missed anyone. I will also check to see if anyone doesn't deserve to be on the cover.

To start this review, I am going to list everyone I see on the cover. Here is the unofficial list of WWF stars on the cover: Mankind, Yurple the Clown, Bradshaw (not JBL), Lita, Farooq (not Ron Simmons), Jerry "The King" Lawler, Jim Ross, Bubba Ray Dudley, D-Von Dudley, The Godfather, Gangrel, Jacqueline, Marc Mero, Big Bossman, Christian, Edge, Trish Stratus, Jeff Hardy, Matt Hardy, Shane McMahon, Mike Tyson, Stephanie McMahon, Big Show, Kurt Angle, Al Snow, Head, Val Venis, Kane, Undertaker, Triple H, The Rock, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Dude Love, Stable, Goldust, Paul Bearer, Mr. Socko, Shawn Michaels, Gillberg?, and Mr. McMahon.

Who doesn't deserve to be on the cover:
  • Mike Tyson- He is a WWE Hall of Famer and a big reason why the WWF defeated WCW, but Tyson was in the WWF for only a few months. I would have liked to see that space on the cover go to someone who was a full-time member of the Attitude Era.
  • Shawn Michaels- I don't consider Shawn Michaels to be an Attitude Era guy. As the commissioner of the WWF, maybe. As a full-time performer, no. Shawn Michaels retired from the WWF at the beginning of the Attitude Era. When I started watching wrestling in early 1999 during the peak of the Attitude Era, Shawn Michaels was making occassional appearances as the WWF commissioner. Like Mike Tyson, he helped start the Attitude Era, but he wasn't really a member of the Attitude Era. 
  • Marc Mero- What? Why is Marc Mero on this DVD? First of all, a lot of people have probably never heard of Mark Mero. Most of the other WWF stars on this DVD cover are stars that are well-known to the PG crowd. He's not a terrible choice for this DVD because he did appear in the early parts of the Attitude Era, but I don't think of Marc Mero when I think of the Attitude Era.
Who is missing from the cover:
  • Chris Benoit- I'm not surprised he's not on the cover, but I just wanted to mention that I do consider him to be an Attitude Era guy.
  • Owen Hart- I'm guessing WWE wanted to include Owen, but couldn't because of Owen's wife who doesn't want WWE showing or mentioning Owen Hart anymore. Owen definitely deserves to be on this DVD cover.
  • Eddie Guerrero- I'm surprised not to see Eddie Guerrero. I was never a big fan of Eddie Guerrero, but the Latino Heat gimmick was enjoyable and he had a funny character. He was the Santino of the Attitude Era.
  • Prince Albert and Droz- Great tag team and I remember them trying to give their opponents a body piercing after the match. Droz unfortunately is paralyzed now and it would have been nice to see him on the cover. If you didn't know, Prince Albert is now Tensai.
  • D'Lo Brown- D'Lo was a guy I liked. He was a member of the Nation of Domination and he was billed from Chicago. A lot of the kiddies probably don't know him, but he's an Attitude Era guy.
  • "Sexual Chocolate" Mark Henry- No Sexual Chocolate? I'm disappointed that he's not on the DVD cover, but the birth of his son Handrew Henry should be on the DVD documentary. 
  • Mae Young- Where is Mae Young? If Jacqueline is on the DVD cover, then Mae Young should definitely be there too.
  • The New Age Outlaws- What the hell? How did WWE forget the greatest tag team of the Attitude Era and former DX members? The New Age Outlaws were the "Road Dogg" Jesse James and the "Bad Ass" Billy Gunn.
  • X-Pac- No X-Pac? He wasn't great, but he was a former DX member.
  • Test- I don't think Test was great, but I think he should have been on the DVD cover. He almost got a big push when he tried to marry Stephanie McMahon.
  • Debra- How can they forget about Debra and her puppies? I hope she doesn't get ignored during the DVD documentary.
  • Chyna- The 9th Wonder of the World is not on the cover? I think she's the greatest women's wrestler in WWF history so to see Jacqueline make the cover and not Chyna makes me sick.
  • Miss Kitty- Another great diva from the Attitude Era that deserved to be on the cover.
  • Terri Runnels- Terri was one of my favorite divas during the Attitude Era.
  • Too Cool- One of my favorite Attitude Era tag teams was the team of Scotty 2 Hotty and Grandmaster Sexay.
  • Rikishi- Wow...no Rikishi? This DVD cover sucks.
  • Crash Holly- The greatest hardcore champion of all-time should have been on the DVD cover.
  • Steve Blackman- Not a great WWF star, but I think of the Attitude Era when I hear his name.
  • Earl Hebner- Why not Earl Hebner? He was the greatest referee in WWF history in my opinion and he was often used in storylines.
  • Howard Finkel- If Mike Tyson is on the cover, then so should The Fink. Greatest WWF ring announcer of all-time. 
I like that the DVD cover has non-Hall of Fame guys that really deserve to be on the cover like Val Venis, Al Snow, The Godfather, Gangrel, and Goldust, but there are too many Attitude Era stars that are missing from this DVD cover. I guess it would be hard to include everyone, but if that many great Attitude Era stars are going to be left off the cover, I would have rather see no one on the cover.

    1. I wonder if they thought, "If people think this DVD will be a top seller, then let's not waste too much time on the cover." This is a DVD that people couldn't give a shit what the cover looks like.
