WWE DVD Discussion

[Dale]

The HIAC participants ruin that cover, looks like some no mark GFX maker made it and just threw 3 ready made cuts on there.

Should have just been Rock/Cena with the Mania logo at the bottom and maybe the tagline of 'Once In A Lifetime'

 

[The New F'n Show]

IDK looks fine to me.

 

[Troy]

I agree with Dale, they should have put only Rock and Cena on the cover. The event was about those two and it doesn't need anything extra on the cover. Yes HIAC was awesome but the real selling point is The Rock vs. Cena.

Breaking: New WWE Undertaker Streak DVD & Blu-ray for 2012?
Just one week after The Undertaker’s WrestleMania winning streak reached 20-0 inside Hell in a Cell, WWEDVDNews.com have learned that a 3 Disc DVD and 2 Disc Blu-Ray could be in the works looking at The Undertaker’s legendary streak.

According to VideoETA.com the set is tentatively titled “Undertaker Streak” and scheduled for release in the US on July 24, 2012.

This is not the first time WWE have released a DVD set on the Undertaker’s WrestleMania winning streak as 2007/08 saw the release of The Undertaker 15-0.

We hope to have more details and confirmation of this title very soon. Stay tuned.

If this does get released, I may collect it but I'm 50/50. It all depends on how many more matches Taker does and then wait it out til when he retires and a full dvd is released. But I don't see that happening til the streak hits 25-0. So yeah, I'll prob get it.

 

[Troy]

Good idea to release another DVD on the streak because the last five matches have been very, very good matches and the match quality on this DVD will be much higher than the previous DVD.

WWE Producing New John Cena & Zack Ryder DVD Releases This Year?
It appears WWE might be planning to begin a new series of DVDs entitled “Superstar Collection” – each title to profile one WWE Superstar on the current talent roster, and released on DVD format as a single or double-disc set.

According to VideoETA’s schedule, WWE will release these two titles on July 10th:


WWE: Superstar Collection – John Cena [DVD]
WWE: Superstar Collection – Zack Ryder [DVD]


We’re hoping to have a verdict this week on whether or not these titles (and the Undertaker Streak DVD) are still scheduled to be incoming. Stay tuned.

As for the now rumored Brock Lesnar DVD, we know first hand that WWE were already considering releasing this last year. With Lesnar back in the fold, perhaps it’s now only a matter of time.

Probably just some small dvd's with a few matches from the superstar on it.

 

[Andrew]

Ryder?

Fuck. They better show his EDGEHEAD and Major Bros days.

Exclusive Details of WWE Undertaker: The Streak DVD & Blu-Ray for July
Source: Exclusive Details of WWE Undertaker: The Streak DVD & Blu-Ray for July | WWEDVDNews

Further details of WWE Undertaker: The Streak Home Video release have today been shared with us.

The major revelations are that every Undertaker streak match will be shown in its entirety, and that the release will additionally include the “first ever comprehensive biography, spanning the Undertaker’s career at WrestleMania and beyond”.

Information contained in a press release suggests the title will be a 4-Disc DVD and 3-Disc BD. It was however also just added to the schedule we have access to, listed as a 3-Disc DVD. The number of discs is unclear but the July 24th, 2012 release date is set.


We can also reveal the official synopsis for Undertaker: The Streak…

It is the most impressive feat in the history of Sports Entertainment, and one that may never be duplicated. Twenty times Undertaker has stepped in the ring at the Showcase of the Immortals, WrestleMania, and 20 times he’s had his hand raised in victory. Undertaker has faced some of the biggest names in WWE history, including Shawn Michaels, Triple H, Ric Flair, Edge, Kane, Batista, Randy Orton, and more, and always claimed their souls.

Now for the first time ever, every match in its entirety is collected in one release—Undertaker: The Streak. In addition to every match, the DVD also includes a never-before-seen documentary discussing the historic, unprecedented run.


The graphic below listing all of the matches in Undertaker’s streak was included in the press release. Oddly there are some discrepancies since Undertaker didn’t compete at WrestleMania 10, but faced King Kong Bundy at WrestleMania 11, and Diesel at WrestleMania 12.

This error will of course have no bearing on the finished product come July.

Nice.

Will pick up a few of them.

 

[Troy]

The Ryder DVD sounds like some of the Best of DVDs that have been released in Australia for around $10. Not really sure what Ryder matches I would put on there as not too many stand out but if it focusses more on the storylines and his promos it will do okay.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

The Ryder DVD sounds like a lame attempt to get more money out of his run since he doesn't have enough material to warrant a set. This is worse than that John Morrison DVD.

 

[Troy]

At least Morrison had had a decent midcard career as a tag team champion and singles champion when his DVD was made. Even Kofi Kingston had a better run when his DVD, which was never released as a DVD, was made. Ryder has been back on television for what feels like less than a year so I don't know where all the footage is coming from.

 

[Slim]

That Ryder DVD looks like it is gonna be complete crap. Ain't lookin to see that on my DVD shelf ever.

And for a synopsis of the Falls Count Anywhere matches:
Sometimes, rivalries become so intense, they cannot be contained within the ring and cannot be contested by the usual rules. For matches that spill outside the ring, there are Falls Count Anywhere Matches. Hosted by the Hardcore Legend, Mick Foley, this collection highlights more than 30 years of lawless bouts from WWE, NWA, WCW, and ECW, and features some of the most brutal in-ring performers of all time, including Sgt. Slaughter, Sting, "Macho Man" Randy Savage, the Road Warriors, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Bret "Hit Man" Hart, Triple H, The Rock, Kane, Big Show, Ric Flair, Randy Orton, John Cena, Shawn Michaels, and more.

The greatest Falls Count Anywhere match of all time (Sullivan-Benoit) won't be on it so it's already a joke.

 

[Andrew]

WWE won't put anything with Benoit.

I might get that Falls Count Anywhere DVD
