This 3-disc DVD is a selection of matches for the WWE Title ranging from the 1970s to the mid-2000s, as chosen by the fans on WWE.com. As it was released in 2006, it does not cover most of the last decade; viewing it from a 2006 standpoint, then, I can confirm that this is an exceptional wrestling DVD, and I will now go into more depth.

Disc one covers the 1970s and 1980s (no 1960s matches were apparently available to use). The early bouts cover the title reigns of Bruno Sammartino, Pedro Morales and Superstar Billy Graham, and are more notable from a historic perspective than for match quality. Bob Backlund becomes the WWWF/WWF Champion and loses the title to the Iron Sheik under controversial-by-1983-standards circumstances.
