Earlier this week we broke the news of a special guest to be featured on WWE’s next “Monday Night War” DVD. That turned out to be Eric Bischoff, who was interviewed by the company to give post episode analysis, in the same vein as Sting and Triple H for Volume 1.
“The Monday Night War Vol. 2 – Know Your Role”, another 4 disc DVD and 3 disc Blu-ray set, packs in the remaining 10 episodes of the WWE Network series, the aforementioned Home Video exclusive interview with Eric Bischoff, and six more extras on the Blu-ray edition.

I thought they were going to have an episode document about Sable. Now it looks like they’re just going to give her a secondary documentation on the divas episode. They don’t even have a title for her. And why are they giving a special title to Stephanie?
I’m interested in seeing/hearing what Bischoff has to say about Flair after the Ric Flair episode(s). I would have liked to have seen them put Flair in the episode analysis with Bischoff to hear what each one would had to say to each other.
Other than that, it looks like it’s pretty much the same thing that was on volume one, except for the new parts with Jericho and the Rock. It’s all the same thing: dx, outsiders jump to wcw, attitude era, ecw documentation. I was really looking forward to a Sable document.
Would have made more sense to have a Hogan-Rock face to face shot as the cover. Even if it is “postwar” it better illustrates the MNW than a cover that would have been better suited for a Rock set.
Only 1 match on the entire set? …and it’s an ECW match (albeit featuring a WCW “contracted” performer)? We could’ve done without the Hogan MGM parade for sure! However, these extras are still a bit better than Volume 1, but that’s not saying much. They really dropped the ball w/the Blu Ray exclusives on both volumes in my opinion.
That one match is the only match in the history of the Monday Night Wars to include a WWF guy vs a WCW guy. Tazz was under contract to the WWF while Awesome recently signed with WCW. And it took place at an ECW show. The historical significance of this match is huge.
Actually, after re-reading the content of this set, I’m really starting to like it now 🙂
Although I don’t like the fact that The Rock is on the cover, making it look like a Rock DVD/Blu-Ray set – instead it would have been better with something like WWE Vs WCW or like someone mentioned before; Vince looking at Eric (though in a nasty way).
Also, I mentioned the thing about the Kliq also being in the set just like the Kliq set, which is all pretty much the same, although I guess they need it in this set too.
I can not help but compare this to the Lord of the Ring DVD set when they first released it as as the cinema version, and months later the extended version of the films with loads of extras..
Only real interesting extra for me is the Stone Cold-Tyson segment..
there could at least have been 1 hour more, giving it is bluray, that can contain around 7 hours on one disc. Disappointment le grande. And we only get to hear from the Bitch..if not Vince Mc then they should have gotten Vince Russo..one sided “analyses” from the Bitsh, problaly again with the Young little Miss Blondie as a hostess, that’s a: nooooooo!
Because it’s a WWE release, did you really expect it to be fair & unbiased? They’re simply not capable of that as we’ve seen in the past & continue to see with pretty much every WCW dvd.
Despite the stupid title…and why the hell is the rock the only one on the cover …anyways vol 2 looking good especially now with Easy E. Post analysis…will get blu ray first day.

coz wcw sux… Scott Steiner circa 2000
They really should have got Vince to sit down with Bischoff ala HHH and Sting. Would’ve been must-buy.
Can’t wait for Vol.2 I’ve already watch 8 of the 10 first episodes on the Vol. 1! Very Great series.
im looking forward to this one and will definitely be getting this on bluray .I enjoying volume 1 now .I agree,the cover does suck

Honestly, whats wrong with you?
and the question is asked, because… and on what grounds???
Because it’s a WWE release, did you really expect it to be fair & unbiased? They’re simply not capable of that as we’ve seen in the past & continue to see with pretty much every WCW dvd.
@ Todd Cash…..
Horrible extras. I won’t be going anywhere near this toxic mess. They are just burying WCW for no reason.
I love the blu ray extras on this one. Definitely will preorder it soon.
