If you've been waiting for a Lashley DVD, the wait is almost over.

WWE will be releasing DVDs for Batista, Bobby Lashley, The Hell in the Cell, Steve Austin, The Rock and Mr. Perfect Curt Hennig next year, as well as the long-awaited Summerslam Anthology box set, which will collect every edition of the company's annual August PPV from 1988 to present. For those wondering how Chris Benoit's bouts will be utilized, it appears the strategy going forward is to include his bouts in complete shows, but to not market the name nor to use him, for now at least, in compilation collections.

They've released a Batista DVD, but this is how they make money. Their entertainment division has bloomed because they're currently pushing more product than before. This means giving multiple DVD sets to guys who are relatively new.

I suppose this is no worse than the Spice Girls getting a lifetime Achievement award before Miles Davis, though.

In all honesty, who the hell would want to buy a lashley dvd? it's bad enough watching him for free on tv, let alone something you have to go out of your to open a disc drive to load it...

Lock Jaw 12-16-2007 05:20 PM

WWE markets to people with too much money. Well, mostly to kids with parents with too much money.

McLegend 12-16-2007 05:20 PM

This is greatest news I have ever heard

Damn their marketing genius! It's quite sad to think they'll make more money on this dvd than i could earn in 20 years

Considering that we were all hoping that Bobby Lashley was reinjured instead of what's going on with Bobby The Brain, I'm gonna say no.

anyone?

Is he out?

I mean, I could be a wiseass and everything, since the only time I've really watched any wrestling recently was the Jericho return, and the 3 hour special. I didn't notice him during that time, but I can't say as I'd be guaranteed to notice.

So is he nijured or something? Because I honestly didn't miss him if he was gone.

Innovator 12-16-2007 05:51 PM

yeah since july, it's been pretty good not having a green hoss running around

Summer Slam box set will be pretty awesome.

KingofOldSchool 12-16-2007 05:57 PM

I need to start saving up for the Summerslam box set.

Now if they actually do the Survivor Series box set, I'll be in heaven.

Since JULY???? Holy Hell! People must REALLY not care!

Hanso Amore 12-16-2007 06:07 PM

It is easy to throw DVDs together, low cost, and if they sell well, high reward.

WWE DVDs sell like mad , so this is no surprise that they are going to throw all kinds of shit to the walls

Innovator 12-16-2007 06:07 PM

I forgot he existed until I got SVR 2008

Londoner 12-16-2007 06:10 PM

he hasn't even had a match worth putting on a dvd though, its fucking stupid.the only match i can think they'll definatley put on it is his one against cena, and that wasn't exactly great.

The MAC 12-16-2007 06:12 PM

i hope he dies.

lol

I'm one of the people that marked the fuck out when Kennedy kayfabe put him out, because it gave Kennedy the rub of taking out Superman #2 and it meant Lashley was nowhere near my TV.

Someone here has a Lashley sig of the three faces of Lashley charisma, which is completely spot on. :y:

But seriously, this is nothing new. WWF used to release Coliseum videos on anything. They had one for Razor Ramon and Brutus Beefcake for fuck's sake.

Fox 12-16-2007 07:59 PM

It will be 60 minutes with Bobby Lashley and then an Extra with him talking about his entrance pyro and then an extra with all the shit leading up to McMahon vs. Trump and then the match with him vs. Umaga and then the shaving of Vince's head, and probably his match with Cena.

And lots of stupid people will buy it.

Jura 12-16-2007 08:07 PM

I actually like Lashley. So suck on it.

Fox 12-16-2007 08:09 PM

I have no problem with Lashley. I just find it ridiculous that they're already making a DVD for him when there are guys like Kane, Chris Jericho, and even the Hardy Boys who have not yet had their own DVDs made.

Jura 12-16-2007 08:11 PM

I agree though.

Xero 12-16-2007 08:11 PM

Hardys had a DVD...

Fox 12-16-2007 08:25 PM

Yeah, but that was 5 years ago. They have both done quite a bit to further their careers since then and they could easily fill a 2-disc DVD with some of their newer matches.

Xero 12-16-2007 08:27 PM

So? If they have another 10 years in their careers you could say the same thing. So now someone HAS to get a new DVD every five years?

I can't wait for the first 3 volumes of Steve Lombardi's career.

Championship Wrestling From Florida

Fignuts 12-16-2007 10:57 PM

Thank god benoit's matches are in.

RGWhat316 12-17-2007 08:24 PM

I don't mind Lashley, but I think that he got a way bigger push too soon.

But I'm looking forward to the new Austin DVD coming though.
