If the DVD was released on its own then this verdict wouldn't make for very good reading. There is little denying that every base is covered, but some of the finer details leave a lot to be desired. Some areas of the DVD leave you feeling a little short changed as they are undoubtedly rushed. The documentary itself is only 1:22:21, which means a lot needs to be covered in a relatively short space of time. In that respect, it means that you simply can't take your eyes off it incase you miss something incredibly interesting about a man that has many more strings to his bow than you would initially give him credit for. Those of you desperate to hear about some of The King's more controversial moments are going to be disappointed. After all, this is a feel-good celebration of The King's career... What makes this DVD package into one of the best in the modern era is the extras it comes with. If the documentary itself leaves you feeling a little unfulfilled, over six hours of bonus interviews and footage from King's near 50 year career is sure to appease you. It includes matches from Memphis against greats like Terry Funk, Curt Hennig, Kerry Von Erich and, of course, Andy Kaufman. Footage from his early days in WWE including a King's Court interview with Tiny Tim, THAT Bret 'The Hitman' Hart feud and a match with The Undertaker, no less. The bonus footage them moves through The Attitude Era with THAT debate against ECW supremo Paul Heyman, an Extreme flavoured match with Tommy Dreamer, and his rivalry with Tazz. We even get to see an OVW match where King teams with Nova to take on Sean O'Haire and 'The Prototype' John Cena. Then, we get to see footage of more modern matches he had with the likes of Ric Flair on RAW, The Miz with the WWE Championship on the line, and Michael Cole at WrestleMania XXVII. Oh, and his WWE Hall of Fame speech in its entirety. We also get extended interviews the The King and his son, Brian Christopher. All in all this is a fantastic collection of footage spanning many generations and serves as a fitting tribute to one of the true greats in the history of the professional wrestling business. It's worth buying just for the bonus footage alone, never mind the fact filled, and very revealing documentary. Once again, WWE has pulled one out of the bag in the DVD documentary stakes.
