The Official WWE DVD Release/Speculation Thread
Considering we get a new thread like this every month or so, I think it would be best to keep it to one thread, like the figures thread.
Here's the latest from PWInsider. Upcoming DVD projects World Wrestling Entertainment's Home Video department are working on for 2008 releases are a new Shawn Michaels DVD, "The Life and Times of Mr. Perfect", a Batista DVD set, a DVD devoted to the Hell in the Cell, and the Summerslam Anthology set that has been mentioned here previously by PWInsider.com, featuring a collection of the first 20 Summerslam events. I would expect a Survivor Series Anthology to follow in 2009. |
An Eddie dvd. A stone cold dvd. Shit, even a HHH dvd.
All of these need to be done. Unfortunately, we won't see a Kurt Angle dvd anytime soon. Hopefully we'll see a Jericho collection soon, but that would be dependent on him signing probably. I mean, if they're making a Batista dvd set than anythings fair game. Have they made an Eddie set? As far as I know they haven't and it suprises me. Same with Stone Cold and HHH. Tbh, they could easily make a solid set for the Hardy Boyz, and one for Edge. I wish they'd made a more comprehensive DX set than just the new version. I'd also like to see a rise and fall of WCW dvd set made. 4 discs would about do it. Macho Man dvd set too. |
I heard an Austin set is coming out later this year, so that will be awesome.
|
I mean, a best of Batista dvd? an entire set?!?
At that point you can release a set for just about anyone. To think Batistas getting a set, and HHH, Angle, Jericho, Savage, Edge, The Hardys and Eddie Guerrero haven't had them is a bit strange. It's not even an attack on Batistas ability or his marketability. I just don't see how he's been around long enough to deserve a DVD set. |
Cena had a DVD like 2 years into his career.

When was it released? If it was a one disc dvd that included a few matches right when he was about to get over, I wouldn't say that is doing justice.

Yea but it was an old school style WWE home video peice. It was one disc. This is similar to what they did for Rock, Jericho, Kurt Angle, Stone Cold, DX back in the day. I have a thread about it. It's not the same as a DVD set. Sets have been released for Hogan, Flair, Bret, RVD, Piper, Dusty Rhodes, Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, Mick Foley, and soon to be Rock and Stone Cold. The 1 hour documentary type things about the superstar themselves with a few behind the scenes peices put together like on Livewire are not the same. Even if they throw a few matches on for bonus features it's hardly a career spanning DVD set. More of a promotional peice of merchandise. |

So they'd rather not make it than have it come out without him publically promoting it?!
I think it'd sell just fine... |
How well did that Ultimate Warrior DVD sell?
|
Anyway, Randy Savage is a DVD set waiting to happen. Personal differences or not, there's money in a Savage DVD. Arguably Hulk Hogan's greatest ever rival??
|
one of the most forgotten stars ever. I mean, they choose not to show off his legacy. But before Austin and Rock came along, he was probably the second in command in terms of mainstream recognition and marketability.
For christ sakes, hes the Macho Man. Snap into a fucking Slim Jim. All of his problems aside, he's probably in the top 5 or 6 most recognizable wrestlers of all time. |
actually, scratch probably. He's definitely.

Still have'nt got my Royal Rumble Anthology yet. 3 day shipping my ASS. :mad:
|
Cant wait for the 2 disc Perfect DVD later this year. On the Early 08 DVD list Suprised to see a Batista and a HIAC DVD sets. However a new HBK and Summerslam sets sound very awesome.
Like WM and Rumbles I say u can break down the Anthologys for Summerslam like this. Vol 1 Summerslams 88-92 Vol 2 Summerslams 93-97 Vol 3 Summerslams 98-02 Vol 4 Summerslams 03-07 I am dumbfounded that the Rock DVD is not coming out, especially since the match listing was already out for it. Cant wait to hear the material on the Great Families of Wrestling DVD coming out in early June, as that is the soonest DVD coming out that hasnt had no info on whats on it yet. |

Yup its a 3 disc set spanning World Class, SMW, WCW, ECW, and WWE coming out in Nov. |
I have been waiting for a hell in a cell set for some time now.
|
Man talk about all the material a HBK anthology could have. I could EASILY have a 5 disc set.
tons of material you can put on there! A mid-south match Rockers vs Rose/Somers Jan 87 (when they win the AWA tag titles) Rockers vs Diamond/Tanaka AWA WWF Debut vs Intruder/Sharpe June 88 Rockers vs Brain Busters SNME 3/11/89 Rockers vs Hart Foundation MSG Nov 1989 (20 min time limit draw) Rockers vs Hart Foundation SNME Oct 90 (the ''title change'' match that was never shown) Rockers vs Orient Express Royal Rumble 91 Rockers/Bushwackers vs Nasty Boys/Beverly Brothers Survivor Series 91 vs Tito Santana WM 8 vs British Bulldog I-C title SNME Oct 92 vs Bret WWF title Survivor Series 92 vs Marty Janetty Royal Rumble 93 vs Marty Janetty Cage Match Coliseum Video Summer 93 vs Mr. Perfect I-C title Summerslam 93 vs Razor Ramon I-C title ladder match WM X Entire Royal Rumble 95 match vs Diesel WWF Title WM 11 vs Jeff Jarrett I-C title In Your House July 95 vs Razor Ramon I-C title ladder match Summerslam 95 vs Owen Hart In Your House Feb 96 vs Bret Hart Ironman Match WWF title WM 12 vs Diesel WWF Title In Your House April 96 vs Mankind WWF Title In Your House Sept 96 vs Sid WWF Title Royal Rumble 97 vs Undertaker HIAC Bad Blood 97 vs Bret Hart WWF Title Survivor Series 97 vs Undertaker WWF TitleCasket Match Royal Rumble 98 vs Austin WWF Title WM 14 vs HHH Summerslam 02 Eliminaton Chamber 02 Survivor Series vs RVD WWE Title RAW Nov 02 vs Jericho WM 19 vs HHH HIAC Bad Blood 04 vs Edge Streetfight RAW Feb 05 vs Angle WM 21 vs Hogan Summerslam 05 vs Vince WM 22 vs Cena WM 23 |
I'm guessing the HBK set is SummerSlam 02-Onward, since they already released his From the Vault one.
Though they did release a brand new Hogan DVD so I don't know... |
I want to see the Phantom Title Change match sooooo fucking bad.
|
Rumor is that there will be a bonus disc with the 4 Horsemen DVD at a certain retail store.

In Oct 1990. Jim Neidhart was released by the WWF, but he filled out his contract obligations. The Hart Foundation were the tag champs at the time but on a SNME taping they dropped the belts to the Rockers. The Rockers then defended the tag team titles at house shows for about a week. Then Neidhart resigned with the WWF and Vince decided to put the belts back on the Hart Foundation. To explain why, they sent a story to PWI explaining the top rope had broken (which it did) thus giving the belts back to the Hart Foundation, but the match has never been aired on TV, and many claim its what started the long time tension between Bret and Shawn. |
I just read this on another website...dont take this as being true or false...just take this as writing on a message board for right now till some evidence actually comes out...
In June WWE was planning on releasing a 3 Disc The Rock DVD set....they contacted Rock to ask him if he would help promote the DVD and he said no...due to this the DVD might no hit shelves at the planned time. |

Why would rocky decline such a thing? it seems really out of charcter for him....
This just made me have a flashback to that one HOF dinner where the rock WAS present, but it was during his final year or so there and he was always shooting movies and what not... and someone was on the podium saying "There is no better place, then underneath those warm lights in the ring"...and it just cut to a shot of the rock, almost taking a jab at him you could say.....really cant belive hes not wanting to promote the DVD. |

Not too bad. A few matches are missing, but I'd be happy with that line up.
