WWE DVD Discussion

Cannot wait for the Punk DVD. Should be excellent.

If the DVD is just based on his WWE career, then I will be a little underwhelmed. But if they feature a few of his ROH matches, it should be great

For UK fans, it looks like Wrestlemania 28 has been pulled from HMV stores, after reports that it's not showing on there system of products for staff anymore. This is most likely due to UK DVD supplier Silvervision pulling the DVD + Bluray from their site a few weeks back.

They are reports that they are having production problems and that affects not just WM28 but WCW Clash of Champions and ECW Unreleased. Sucks for fans in Europe.

If the DVD is just based on his WWE career, then I will be a little underwhelmed. But if they feature a few of his ROH matches, it should be great

I doubt that ROH will let WWE use some of their matches. WWE still has plenty of great footage from his rise through ECW, Smackdown and RAW. Plenty of top matches and top moments to fill a three disc DVD.

WWE Falls Count Anywhere DVD Cover Featuring Stone Cold Steve Austin
WWEDVDNews reader ‘TheChamp0617′ spotted that Walmart.ca have put up the cover artwork for WWE Falls Count Anywhere, featuring Stone Cold Steve Austin.

Hosted by Mick Foley, this one will be released by WWE on June 26th in the United States, and produced on both DVD and Blu-ray formats.

The contents are yet to be revealed, but the tagline of “The Greatest Street Fights and other Out of Control Matches” confirms it will not be limited to FCA matches only.

Looks pretty fucking sweet. Will def. be picking this up!

cover looks sweet, it just depends on the match listings

 

[Dale]

That DVD could be awesome, but chances are it's gonna be edited to absolute fuck.

 

[Troy]

That cover is awesome, be interested to see what the match listing will be. Plenty of good matches to choose from so it should be a good DVD.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

Yeah, I just can't care about the match listing. Much more important than the cover.

The WWE Falls Count Anywhere DVD set has been re-titled "WWE: Falls Count Anywhere: The Greatest Street Fights and other Out of Control Matches". The set will be released on 6/26.

Surely they could have figured this out before they announced that it would be a Falls Count Anywhere DVD. Seems a little late to make this decision but I guess this is why we haven't seen a match list yet even though the DVD is out in a month.

The word making the rounds internally is that Silvervision is ending its long run as WWE's European distributor for DVD and Blu-Ray. That's a shame for those markets as in many cases, there were blu-ray releases for those areas that were far superior than what was released here, as well as older content (including old Coliseum videos) that were never released here via DVD.

Hopefully WWE already have someone lined up to be the new distributor so that European fans don't miss out. Terrible timing with the WM28 ready to come out and yet WWE don't have a European distributor for the DVD.

I used to collect all of the DVDs. In fact I still have quite a few of them, but then it got to pricey for me to keep up the work. If the cost was still lower, I would have finished collecting them.

And other Out of Control matches.

The Rock’s WWE DVD to Top Steve Austin’s by Next Month
Since it’s February release, WWE has shipped 143,000 units of The Rock’s “Epic Journey” DVD release. Rock’s DVD is now 1,000 units short of the #1 DVD from the past nine months – Stone Cold Steve Austin’s November 2011 DVD at 144,000 units. The updated DVD figure was reported in WWE’s monthly business report released this week.

At the end of March (February business), WWE reported 115,000 units shipped of Rock’s DVD. At the end of April (March business), WWE reported 137,000 units shipped. The pace slowed down this month (April business), but Rock’s DVD should top Austin’s by next month.

I liked SCSA DVD much better. I don't think The Rocks really went over a lot compared to the Austin one, The Rock also didn't talk a lot compared to the other guys documentaries. First hour of the dvd was ok and second hour was good.

The Rock's DVD had the benefit of The Rock being back on television for a couple of months and maineventing WM. Correct me if I am wrong but I don't remember Stone Cold coming back to promote his DVD so there wasn't as much promotion done for the DVD.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

Too bad because Austin's DVD is much better which I own thanks to this wonderful site.
