Regarded by many, including myself, as one of the best Wrestlemania PPV’s ever, W17 is finally available to purchase again as part of the tagged classics range. Unfortunately this means that the old style WWF logos are blurred, but really, it isn’t all that distracting after a while. The best PPV’s like this one easily outweigh the annoyance of the blurred logos, and you’ll soon find yourself transfixed in the build up to one of the most epic heel turns in Wrestling history when Stone Cold Steve Austin sells his soul to Vince McMahon in the name of championship gold. As with most recent WWE releases, there is also a fair amount of decent special features included.
