  • I'm continuing to stack up the WWF VHS in my quest to collect every WWF Pay-Per-View event from the World Wrestling Federation of my childhood, 1988-1995!
    Today I have some absolute bangers to show you including Royal Rumble 1992, the event that introduced me to the WWF as well as Summerslam 1991 and Wrestlemania 10. Having these VHS cases in my hands for the first time in 30 years takes me right back to the local Civic Video and Video Ezy rental stores that were such a big part of my childhood!
    As I'm posting this, I am just now reading of the tragic passing of Scott Hall, AKA Razor Ramon, a true legend of the squared circle, a larger than life character who made my childhood better for his presence in the world of wrestling, a world of real life super heroes. RIP to the Bad Guy.
    Thanks very much for watching.
    This video is aimed at nostalgic adult toy and pop culture collectors and enthusiasts over the age of 13.

      RIP to the Bad Guy, indeed. Absolutely one of my favourites as well. I'm glad to hear that they're as nostalgic to you as they are to me! Thanks mate👍

    I remember when the first Wrestlemania came around in 1985 that there was a regular program I watched religiously on Channel 10. But that maybe lasted 2 or 3 years and it lost popularity.
    These were the days of peak WWF. Wonderful personalities and simple enthralling stories.
    Maybe we were just simpler? Maybe life was simpler as a young person? I'm always just putting on a random match from 1987 to 1995. Just so many memories around this period growing up.
    Thanks for a great little vid. I found myself nodding and smiling a lot 👍👌😉

      I wish I remembered the build to the very first Wrestlemania and the event itself, that would have been wild! Throughout the early 90s the only WWF I ever saw was the odd brief segment on Channel 9's Wide World of Sports, that was it!
      They sure were Matt, I don't want to be the guy to say "it was so much better back then" because I don't watch today's wrestling but the product of the late 80s and early to mid 90s perfectly aligned with my age and personality. In the ring they were like real life superheroes and out of the ring it was like the TV show I'm obsessed with! Thanks very much Matt, I'm really glad to hear you enjoyed it😁👍

    Great pick ups Scott! My favourite all time has to be Summer Slam ‘88 - probably because it was first big one we saw. My older brother managed to get a pirated version from the states I think so we got it before the video stores. Literally every kid in the neighborhood came around to watch it! One of my best childhood memories. We were kings for a day lol

    • @ScottCrusher
      @ScottCrusher  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ah yes, the Mega Powers and the Mega Bucks! I don't have that one in the collection just yet but I definitely rented it as a kid. Man, that sounds like such a great memory, your house would have been the place to be! Thanks Phil👍

    Awesome pickups! I remember the promotion for SummerSlam '91 being off the wall, and I wanted to watch that event live so bad. This video brought back some memories! Good stuff, my friend!

    1992 rumble was great!! The artwork on the rumble VHS’s were great too. Definitely TH-cam how to clean VHS tapes or check out Facebook groups lots of people clean them and they work 100%

    • @ScottCrusher
      @ScottCrusher  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      92 Rumble was the best! Ok cool, I wonder if the tapes that have some fuzzy playback could also benefit from a clean even though they don't appear to have mould... I appreciate that mate, I'll have a hunt around on TH-cam and Facebook👌

    If you ever want to add any other wwf tapes to collections that aren’t paper views here’s my current top 5 I like .
    5. The wrestling classic
    4. Ricky the dragon steam boat
    3.super tape
    2. Andre the Giant
    1. The life times of Captain Lou Albano .
    Super tape 3 focuses on the legion of doom I’ve not watched that one .

      @@ScottCrusher I think the super tape kinda fits in with the paper views since it’s the only place you can see the match for the movie the match paper view they did for no holds barred they hyped all during the 89 survivor series .

    You bought a 30 year old VHS previous rental and complained about the video quality for a partial refund. Jesus, it's people like you that make selling on eBay a pain in the ass.

    • @ScottCrusher
      @ScottCrusher  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Steve, if someone advertises a tape on eBay as tested and working with no playback issues I don't think it's unreasonable to expect that. But to each their own, I've been on the other end with buyers hunting flaws for items I've sold.
