I love it when WWF/E comes to good old Blighty to put on a show. So many great British shows indeed from yesteryear, such as Mayhem in Manchester, Capital Carnage, the annual Insurrextion and Rebellion pay-per-views and of course, a little event that went by the name of SummerSlam 1992(!)
Sadly, all UK pay-per-views ceased after 2003 (SHAME!). Since then, WWE has upheld the traditional UK visit by hosting Raw and SmackDown there at least once a year. And Silver Vision have subsequently released these visits to Great Britain on DVD.
Unfortunately, like other Live in the UK releases, this offering from November 2009 is mostly unspectacular, with few matches that are worthwhile. There is some good stuff to be found, but is it REALLY worth buying a collection of normal episodes of Raw, ECW, Superstars and SmackDown? Well, if you're bargain hunting, then this release MAY be worth considering (this IS under a fiver!), so long as you're not expecting to find anything LEGENDARY.
Emanating from the Sheffield Arena, you have the complete, commercial-free editions of Raw, ECW, Superstars and SmackDown. Again, it's hardly what you'd call a major offering from WWE Home Video. Aside from there not really being any classic matches, these shows were running into Survivor Series 2009; an event that had an appalling lack of hype with only two real storylines (Kofi Kingston/Randy Orton & Batista/Rey Mysterio) going on at the time.
With minimal effort from the WWE, it was up to the wrestlers and on-screen characters to generate whatever excitement they could in this mostly dull period. Starting with Raw, us Brits (and boxing fans) are given a real treat as our very own Ricky Hatton takes up the celebrity guest-host honours.... Read more ›

I can't wait til this dvd comes out. I went to see Raw Live in Sheffield and it was just amazing. I was stood at the front for most of the evening and seeing the action up close like that was one of the greatest experiences of my life and if you ever get the chance, it is definately worth it. WWE live events are just amazing! This dvd will be great as it will highlight many amazing moments from Raw & Smackdown in the UK and just how amazing the UK fans are! :)

I Went to the smackdown/ecw show for this & it was absolutly great,would have gone to the raw night but i was still away in prague & got home monday night about 11pm so i was too late, you also get to be apart of wwe superstars (Which was not on sky TV back then). the best about this is raw with ricky hatten as the special guest host of raw & he was brillent. always good when televised wwe comes to sheffield because i live in rotherham & the arena is not far for me.
if you have never been to a live televised WWE show you are missing a lot plus the dark matches.
