The Coliseum Video Thread

Looks like they even took a bunch of matches from the same taping on Jan 22, 1996. Terminators '96 is also not part of the original 1-100-something run. Not sure why that's the case.
 
I watched that two nights ago as I was going to bed. Did they just put together the main events of like Six Raws in a row?
 
Like Terminators 96, some of those Best of tapes included the opposite of 'best' but I don't think they ever just used a single TV taping.

I just watched Vol 20 and it starts with Red Rooster and the Brooklyn Brawler. But it gets good and varied after that. Bad News vs the Barber, Duggan's win over Haku and subsequent coronation, and ends with a double main event: Hart Foundation vs Rougeau Bros w/ guest ref Brother Love & Hulk Hogan vs Rick Rude (which I think might be on the Hogan unreleased DVD).

Another one, around 14 or 15, had the Strike Force tag belts win. It was cool to finally find that in the mid 90s because that was a match I'd heard and read about a lot but never saw. And even if I saw it on Superstars I would've been 3 and no memory of it. Wrestlemania 4 was the tape I rented most often so it made Strike Force a bigger deal to me.
 

Seems they turned the heat machine to 12 for these matches.

Luger vs IRS
Owen/Anvil vs Head Shrinkers
Bulldog vs Double J
Drose vs Bundy
Doink vs Mr Backlund
Luger/Bulldog vs Tatanka/Bigelow
Fatu vs Jarrett
Luger/MOM vs Million Dollar Team
Kid vs Bigelow
Smoking Gunns vs Bodies
 
Could there have been any mileage for a jtts Honky/Bravo team after Valentine's face turn? The HTM announcer idea didn't work out. Bravo got way too bored and, well, you know.
 
It's been many years but I remember the Powers of Pain match being one of the worst Hart Foundation matches I'd ever seen.

Piper/Savage is great though.
