First of all, if you're looking for WWE style matches and WWE quality, then don't by this DVD. This is the "best" of CM Punk from WAY before Vince hired him. This is a collection of Punk's work from Full Impact Pro, wrestling in front of anywhere between 5 and 50 fans, no joke. I only recommend this DVD to DIE-HARD fans of Punk, I paid $1 and I don't recommend paying more than $5 for it. Don't get me wrong, CM Punk is the man!! But he can't carry everybody he works with. The matches that involve him are good on his part. He always works hard and that's one reason Vince noticed him. I really would NOT have included the matches where he isn't wrestling. Yeah, there's a couple matches that don't even have Punk wrestling. I also would have picked better matches, and more high profile matches like the ones from RoH. Oh, and I just wanted to say THANKS to the internet mark who rated my review as a negative!! My FAVORITE part of the DVD, is the footage from his time in IWA Mid-south. This features lots of mic work, Punk getting heat from the crowd and matches with Chris Hero, Rey Mysterio and even the late, great Eddie Guerrero!!!! Punk vs. Vordell Walker Check out Joshua Masters... he has the Majin Buu logo on his forehead... Joshua Masters vs. Homicide Why is this on the DVD? It's not even a CM Punk match!!! Punk vs. Justin Credible Don't get your hopes up for this match!! Punk vs. Rainman Punk vs. Homicide Finally, a good match!!! Azrieal vs. Rainman Again, this shouldn't be on the DVD if it's not a CM Punk match!!! Punk vs. Dan ??? No comment... Punk vs. Homicide (Falls Count Anywhere) This match is good!! Some kind of Royal Rumble type of match with Punk and a butt load of Jobbers. Punk vs. James Gibson (aka WWE's Jamie Noble) Good match. Not great, but good. DVD extras are better than the actual feature in my opinion and are... Punk vs. Roderick Strong (RoH) Punk vs. Brian Danielson (RoH - Special Referee Ricky Steamboat) CM Punk's IWA Mid-south "Retrospective", a music video, and Big Vision trailers If this review was helpful, insightful or informative, please rate it accordingly to help other eBay members see it.

I've followed Punk's career since his IWA days, starting from 2001. This DVD is definitely a must have for any CM Punk fan, especially those who knew him before his WWE days. For those who don't have a clue about his early work, this DVD will broaden your horizons. Most of the matches listed are from his work with Full Impact Pro and Ring of Honor, great matches!!! There is even an IWA retrospective video that plays not unlike a YouTube reel that covers his longstanding feud with Chris Hero, his matches with legends Eddie Guerrero and Rey Mysterio, and future greats like Colt Cabana (Scotty Goldman in WWE), BJ Whitmer, and Delirious, even a few clips of AJ Styles. See what Punk really was and how much of a total package he is and all the things he has yet to show a WWE audience... including the Pepsi Plunge and the Punk Handle Slam!!Read full review
This DVD has a number of really good matches on it. Showing a lot about what CM Punk was before he went to the WWE. My Daughter and I really loved that it had many different company matches. The only thing we disliked about it would ahve liked to see some of his earlier indy work from Iwa Ms or LWF or some of the other companies he workd for. There is a lot of CM Punk Tapes out there this one was mostly his FIP but where good matches. I bought this because my daughter who is a big CM Punk fan wanted it to add to her collection and I was told it was good. It was and any CM Punk fan should have it.
Both DVD's have the exact same content. Paid for 2 but actually got 1.
