WWE owns the Mid-South library, they put out a very good DVD last year.

USWA is right there for the taking but for some reason they haven't made an attempt at it yet, same with CWA. They are bound to buy them at some point though.

who they buy mid-south off of? watts old broad? i remember she was holdin out.

what CWA stand for?

Battlebowl '93 was the third one.

I thought it was a great concept but it could've used some better booking. From what I understand, the first two Lethal Lotteries were legit random teamings, which is a fun idea. Keeps people on their toes but doesn't make for compelling matches sometimes. In the case of Slamboree '96, that one was completely OVERbooked. That show was terrible and they even tried to push it as "Lord of the Ring" instead of Battlebowl. Almost every match had enemies teaming together and friends/partners wrestling against one another. Too contrived.

I've always loved stuff like the Rumble, War Games, Survivor Series and Lethal Lottery/Battlebowl though. Anything where you get guys teaming up and going at it who you wouldn't normally see interacting.

oh snap. i think i have battlebowl '93 too.

slamboree '96 was the one i never saw.

and yea, im not surprised to find out that the early joints were legit random pairings. that 1st one was one of my favorite pay-per views.

yea, concept ppvs are the best. by far. even if the matches are meh, its still must-see tv.

So weird watching this Benoit vs MVP match at Mania 23 knowing 2 months later Benoit would be dead and gone

My mom and dad pulled that at least 5 or 6 times during my youth. I would be listening to the show on channel 99
