Ric Flair DVD Easter Eggs (I think I got them all)



For those of you trying to find the Easter Eggs on the Ric Flair DVD
series, I think I managed to find all of them, but first, a couple of
general comments:

The preview on Disc 1 for the Cage Matches DVD includes one where an
outside referee's face is digitally blurred; it looks like it's an
Austin vs Vince match, and Austin knocks Vince from the top of the
cage onto the arena floor.  Anybody have any ideas on who that could
be?  (There can't be THAT many Austin/Vince cage matches to begin
with...)

Also, for some strange reason, you can chapter skip or fast forward
past the two ads, but not the "Don't Try This At Home" promo.  (At
least my player couldn't.)



Now, onto the Easter Eggs:

Disc 1 has two of them:
(1) Select Chapters, then on the Chapters page, go down to "Barry
Windham: Keeping Up with the Champ" and press right-arrow (or whatever
you do if you want to move to the right on a DVD menu); you get Flair
on TBS's old WCW show (the one taped in what I assume is a WTBS
studio) talking about various wrestlers, including a comment about
"Nature Boy" Buddy Landell: "I would lend you one of my robes to wear
on TV if you wouldn't get lost in the arms."

(2) Select Chapters, then select Dusty Rhodes; on the Dusty Rhodes
menu page, go down to "Flair Cuts a Promo" and press left-arrow; you
get Flair on the WCW studio set again, this time "just back from
Studio 54" where he was name Wrestling Press International's Man of
the Year.


Disc 2 has one:
Select Chapters, then on the Chapters menu, go to "A Day in the Life
of the Horsemen" and press left-arrow; you see the "Four Horsemen"
logo (they don't play their "theme music", however - it's just some
fanfare by a set of trumpets), and then Flair mentions the Freebirds a
bit; there's also a reference to Tully Blanchard's valet (after Baby
Doll left), Dark Journey.  (Whatever happened to her, anyway?  She
wasn't around that long in the first place.)


Disc 3 has three:
(1) On the main page, from "Play", then press left-arrow to light the
WWE logo, then press "Select" (or whatever it is you press to select a
menu item) to get Flair talking about the Road Warriors, the
"Fruitbirds" (Freebirds, back in the Hayes/Gordy/whoever "Bam Bam" was
(not Bigelow)), and Jimmy Garvin; this was a little later than the
other "studio" interviews, as Flair now has the large gold belt.

(2) Select Chapters, then "Celebration: A Special Night in
Greenville"; on the Celebration menu page, go down to "The Final
Nitro" then press left-arrow *twice* to see Flair describing where his
"Wooo!" came from.

(3) On the same menu page, go down to "Main", then press right-arrow
*twice* to light the beer can, then press "Select"; you get a montage
of Flair moments (it looks like it could be used as his WWE entrance
video).
