So I've still been looking to get the home video version of Fall Brawl 1997. I have a copy on DVD that I bought from someone on iOffer a year or so ago. I don't know what the source is. I got bored today and decided to watch it. When it got to the War Games match and the nWo put Flair's head in between the cage and the door, the part where they smashed his head was cut. It went from Hennig getting ready to slam it to Buff laughing. Does anyone know why this was cut. I heard WCW edited their videos sometimes. Could this be a home video version? I know they didn't cut it from the pay-per-view because I remember seeing his head get smashed when I watched it on pay-per-view.

It be no point in getting the home vid version. I have that and they did cut the cage shot. When Nitro also aired it in the UK they cut it as well. As for the US nitro they probably aire it.

I remember reading about the incident in powerslam where they said the cage door really fucked flair up and injured him.

So I'm assuming the version I have now is the home video version? I wanted to download the ppv online but don't know which has the cage shot in tact.

No this is the full pay-per-view but the cage shot is cut. I'm really thinking this version is from the home video.

Well if you ever buy the PPV version off ioffer be careful as ive heard some trader circulated a repeat of the HV version but just edited in the cage door moment onto the PPV. But you can probably tell this because it would show the TNT logo for a brief 3 seconds.

US Nitro aired it, 2.45 in the clip.

If this is the case and it was edited out on the home video then I have an edited version where someone edited in the PPV master version of the cage door slammed shut into a DVD transfer of the THE home video master. Because their is no quality loss on the edit and no sign of a TNT logo if the clip was edited in the from Nitro broadcast. But didn't they air camera stills from the PPV's on Nitro not actual PPV highlights?

I do actually have a live PPV version of it on vhs in very good quality. If I can find it, I could some time get it on my pc. And upload it if enough people wanted to download and see it. And yeah its all uncut.

Dude, I would love if you could get it online. Every version I download has the cage spot cut. I have the live version on vhs too but i cannot find the tape at all. I'd really appreciate it if you could get it online as soon as you can.

I just checked my copy and its also cut! I didn't know about this edit until I saw this forum post. I think a friend of mine has that 'Best of Wargames' video, so I might see if I can grab a copy off him.

I have all of Nitro 97 on DVD though, so if its on that, its probably not much of an issue. I will have to check my set for that particular moment too.

That had no place in this topic. You're new. You won't get banned unless you leech or spam.

MU are normally a decent speed site even for free users. Sometimes when I download a current Raw ill get a 750kb speed so its very fast. Better than those horrible 10kb torrents.

I agree. I usually can download something in a half hour to an hour on megaupload. It's better than that stupid fileserve crap that takes four hours for a 2 hour video lol

Oh you mean rapidshare. Yeah I agree thats just insanely bad dl ing a 50 mb file and having to dl 20 parts just for a 1hr vid file. Not to mention you have to wait on loading times as well. All that crap you cant dl cos you ve already dl ed 100 mb wait 1 hr.
