A**O
4 stars for the event, 1 star for DVD production quality
To start off, the DVD production quality of this potentially amazing DVD release is very poor. Mirroring the comments of other reviewers, I add my own assessment and confirm theirs---this DVD, released in 2002!!! as part of the "Attitude" collection, has no special features, no chapters, not even a main menu. The only "chapter" is mid-way point in the DVD which features the end-point of the New Age Outlaws vs L.O.D. 2000 match, the rest you have to fast forward or rewind to as if they just ripped the VHS onto DVD and released it.The matches, meanwhile, were a shining example of WWF at its greatest point in time.Faarooq, Ken Shamrock, and Steve Blackman vs The Nation of DominationThis was a somewhat dull one, without much excitement attached to it from the crowd or the wrestlers. It was something of a "just there" match just to further the story of Faarooq getting vengeance on The Rock and The Nation who betrayed him. Steve Blackman was pretty much the only member of his team in the ring most of the time. (4/10)WWF European ChampionshipTriple H (C) vs Owen HartThis match was something of a good one, without being a spectacle of wrestling or charisma. The special stipulation of this had Chyna hanging in a small cage over the ring to prevent her interference, which she promptly broke out of and escaped after the Road Dogg lowered the cage via the controls in the back. (7/10)NWA World Tag Team ChampionshipThe Midnight Express (with Jim Cornette) (C) vs The Rock & Roll ExpressI sort of shudder and look upon the two WWF stars, Bart Gunn and "Hardcore" Bob Holly, seeing them with the ridiculous names of "Bodacious Bart" and "Bombastic Bob", and then I see these Rock & Roll Express people I've never heard of, and then I was surprised by a very good match, with even some entertainment as Jim Cornette got involved and challenged the referee to a fist fight! (8/10)Evening Gown MatchSable vs LunaOne of those... you know... (1/10)WWF Tag Team ChampionshipThe New Age Outlaws (C) vs L.O.D. 2000The Road Dogg is great with riling up the crowd, and the New Age Outlaws are a greatly charismatic group. This match, while not the greatest, was a good one, with a very... confusing ending, which didn't really make sense until several minutes after with an explanation regarding camera angles and viewing and such. (6/10)Inferno MatchThe Undertaker vs Kane (with Paul Bearer)This sort of match is what the Attitude era is all about. While the wrestling wasn't at its best, the action was nonstop, and the charisma and energy these two gave off was incredible. The ring was surrounded by metal exhausts which kept the firing going, and with ever big bump taken or at random intervals, the gas was turned up and the flames jumped as high as a man! The match got taken to the outside and to an amazing finish. (9/10)WWF ChampionshipStone Cold Steve Austin (C) vs Dude LoveThis match is a classic. That's pretty much as much as can be said. There wasn't too much wrestling or technical usage, but the energy and the action of these two was astounding, and this match is simply a classic because of it. (10/10)If it weren't for the shoddy DVD production quality, this would be a great release and I'd've encouraged further releases (before the WWE change)

This pay per view breathes attitude and it brings back the time of daring badass personalities! Enjoy!
First match: faarooq,ken shamrock and steve blackman vs. Nation of domination great match and it shows the build up of the rock's driven ego but the rest i won't spoil you with. Soon after the first match stone cold intimidates the bellringer leading to the main event. Triple h vs. Owen hart this is where chyna is hung inside a cage. Intense action! Unpredictable ending!? Then soon after the only dissapointing unexpected match between the midnight express and the rock and roll express this fourth match is between sexy hot sable and luna another unpredictable ending! Vince talks about the conspiracy leading to the epic main event tag team title match between the new age outlaws and lod 2000 before the match great antics from new age outlaws. Another screwjob guaranteed at the end of that match. Jeff jarrett sings then gets attacked on stage..... Boom!!! Guitar shot!? 2 more match

A Great PPV,but.....
Unforgiven'98 is a great PPV. With that said the dvd is lacking. There are no extras,so it's just the ppv. That doesn't bother me though. However,there is also no menu and you can't pick a match to watch by itself. There are two chapters. The second one starts about half-way through the event. But who cares? It's WWF nostalgia at its best. Just watch and enjoy because it is a really good PPV.

A solid Attitude era PPV with problems 7.5/10
WWF's In Your House Unforgiven from April 26, 1998is a very strange PPV during the height of the Monday Night WarThis was the more Mature WWFWhen Pro Wrestling actually could draw massive numbersDouble J Sings with country superstar Sawyer Brown! (Just used to be put on Celeb entertainment outlets cheap) silly filler,Faarooq, Ken Shamrock and Steve Blackman vs The Nation of Domination (Six-Man Tag team War)2.5 Star match interesting for various reasons This version of The Nation was watered down and a massive wasted opportunityTriple H vs Owen Hart ( WWF European Championship Match) 3.5 Star match mostly in part to the late Own Hart carrying the matchThe New Midnight Express (Bodacious Bart and Bombastic Bob with Jim Cornette) vs the Rock 'n' Roll Express (Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson) Tag team match for the NWA World Tag Team ChampionshipThe NWA in WWF was a cool idea that was also wasted and torn down quick mostly due to the upcoming Brawl for All 2.5 StarsLuna Vachon vs Sable (First Ever Evening Gown Match!) Terrible cheap T&A match selling sex just to sell sexIt's a glorified cat fight there's been much better "Catfight" style matches in USWA, SMW, and ECWThe best thing about this is Luna this was only booked to get Sable 1/2 Naked! The New Age Outlaws vs LOD 2000 /with Sunny ( WWF Tag Team Championship) average forgettable tag team matchLOD 2000 was a strange nostalgic tag-team =now used as jobbersThe Undertaker vs Kane (First Ever Inferno Match in the WWF/WWE) over kill cheap gimmicky trying way to hardThe build up to Undertaker/Kane feud was great but, this was just bad!They tried to emulate a Puerto Rico/Japanese style deathmatch but, it was so over-produced and phonyDoing any type of match with fire in a massive arena is such a stupid idea(If you want to see what a real Inferno deathmatch looks like check out classic matches from Puerto Rico, W*ING, IWA Japan, FMW, and Big Japan Pro Wrestling)1 Star terrible chapter in the Undertaker/Kane feudDude Love vs Stone Cold Steve Austin (WWF Championship) a solid 5 Star match from two of the biggest attitude era super starsOverall this late 1990's PPV is a interesting time capsule when the WWF were trying to be more gritty/real and copy ECWThis is before they became a publicly traded company and just gave up and rested on there laurelsIt's interesting and enjoyable overall but, it does have problems 7.5/10This DVD is long out of print (cause the WWF is like Playboy they have a decent back catalog but, only release physical dvd's onceIs this dvd worth getting it all depends it's not worth the insane mark-up you might be able to find a used copy at a used book store, pawn shop, or goodwillI have no idea if you can see this PPV uncut on the network

試合内容はともかく!
この大会は、若い時の悪役のロック、DXの全盛期、ケン シャムロックのWWF時代が垣間見れて、なかなか面白かったです。が!中でも懐かしくて、面白かったのが、スペシャルマッチのNWAのタッグ戦です。ロックンロールエキスプレスとミッドナイトエキスプレスの試合です。この抗争は、80年~90年にかけての定番のマッチです。個人的にこの抗争が見れたのには、感動しました。必見です。追伸! 髪の長い時の、ハ-ドコアボブホリ-も見れますよ!

内容
若いロックやHHH、今はいないセーブルも見ることが出来ます。怪奇派のころのテイカーとケインのちょっと変わった火炎マッチなども見ることが出来ます。メインはオースチンとデュート ラブ(ミックフォーリ-)です。
