WWF: Backlash 2001

Distributed by
Silver Vision


WWF: Backlash 2001 plays out the event from Chicago, Illinois on April 29th, 2001 over more than three hours of fighting, grunting and general showing off.

The matches featured are :


Presented in a 4:3 ratio and in NTSC as filmed, the print is free of artifacts but the picture quality is variable depending on the technique used, examples including when stop-motion and black-and-white techniques kick in. You should know what to expect here though because these discs always tend to look the same. As for the audio, it's in Dolby Surround, but only gets used when people shout or the crowd roars.

The extras bring up more video footage starting with Interviews with William Regal, the Dudley Boyz, Chris Benoit and Big Show; more Matches showing Jerry Lynn vs. Crash, which was the Light Heavyweight Title Match, plus Lita vs. Molly Holly; and also Match Histories from previous violent and bloody meetings between the aforementioned names.

7 chapters split apart the main action. Dialogue is in English only with no subtitles and most of the menus feature animation in the form of clips from the matches, with cool screen-wipes.


WWF: Backlash 2001 was released on September 3rd, 2001, while I'm here I'll summarise a few of the other recent WWF DVDs all of which provided a treat for the fans when released four weeks previously, on August 6th :

Cover WWF Survivor Series 2000 (£19.99): runs for just over three hours (198 mins) and contains the Six-Person Intergender Tag Team Match, Survivor Series Elimination Match, Chris Jericho vs. Kane, European Championship, The Rock vs. Rikishi, the Women's and Men's Championship Matches, Stone Cold Steve Austin and the Survivor Series Elimination Match. Extras include feedback about some of the wrestlers, a look back at the Survivor Series Open and interviews, some bravado and an extra match.

Cover WWF Wrestlemania X-Seven (£24.99): saw nearly 70,000 fans pack into the Houston Astrodome in Texas for over seven hours (430 mins) of fights showing the WWF Championship Match, the Gimmick Battle Royal, TLC II Match, Street Fight Match, Women's Championship Match, Kurt Angle vs. Chris Benoit, European Championship Match, Triple-Threat Hardcore Championship Match, 6 Man Tag-Team Match and the Intercontinental Championship Match. Stuff the crowds didn't get to see: Interviews, Flashbacks to previous matches and footage of the WWF Axxess in Houston.

Cover WWF Best of Raw Vols. 1 & 2 (£24.99): Almost seven hours again (412 mins) over two discs with a highlights package showing some of the best "RAW IS WAR" moments from the late 90s. All the old favourites are back along with footage of the 1998 Survivor Series Aftermath, the 1999 Royal Rumble and Westlemania XV. Bonus material is included on both discs showing all manner of wacky weirdness.

The following is a list of all the The WWE/WWF DVDs and games review online to date :
