I just flicked through random stuff on youtube and i came across these videos (apparently from an old "Confidential" DVD, Aaccording to one of the comments posted)
I know people don't like clicking into video links not knowing what they are, so just to inform you, its about ten minutes (5 each) and its about WWE's production crew setting up the Titan Tron and the arena in general. If you havent' seen them, I recommend them highly.

I've always wanted to see a video like this.
The production crew never really get any of the spotlight. They are never really acknowledged.
Its nice to see that it showed them setting up the Titan Tron and how much it weighs and its dimensions and so forth. Its really an awesome video. Its obviously a bit old, as they have the "lightning bolts" on the Tron and Bischoff is playing the role of GM.
I really enjoyed the insight into everything. I really wish they'd have spent more than ten minutes on it though. "The Making Of WWE" or something like that on DVD would be pretty cool. An hour and a half or two hours of the production crew setting up the stages and interviews with all of the major crew members and off screen talent.
They could even include stuff with Jim Johnston and talk to him about the music and then go to Kevin Dunn about the Tron Movies for wrestlers and all that kinda thing.
So my question is:
If they made a DVD like that, would you buy it?
Lets say its two hours long.
It would focus on setting up the Titan Trons for RAW and SmackDown!, talking to the people that designed them, discussing where the concept came from, how long it took to build (along with any footage or photos of the original Tron creation in process). They could discuss problems they have setting up the ring in different arenas around the world, where they store their cages, cells, chambers etc.
They could talk to johnston about a day in his life. How he comes up with the theme music and how long he spends thinking of how a theme should sound to fit a character. How much of hims music does he create and does he only use pre-made production music when he cant think of anything on the spot?
They could talk about how long it takes to set up titantron movies, do the wrestlers have any input into their videos or theme music, does a wrestler have to agree to use a particular theme etc.
Extras on it would be a tour of titan towers, what they do with all the old titan trons, who makes them, how much the WrestleMania titan trons cost to make and where are they now. Whatever happened to the Huge WrestleMania banners and flags they use at the shows.
How do they work out capacity for new arenas they're visiting etc. etc.
Pretty much a DVD based on everything that goes on in WWE except the stuff that happens in the ring.
