bob_barron Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 From PWInsider- LOTS OF WWE DVD NEWS INCLUDING ECW, HALL OF FAME AND (AT LONG LAST) BRET HART by Mike Johnson @ 12:04:00 PM on 4/1/2004 The Rise and Fall of ECW DVD that World Wrestling Entertainment is currently producing has been pushed back to a November release. The delay is being made to push up the release of the WWE double-disc Hall of Fame DVD set to a 6/1 release. The Hall of Fame DVD set will feature the complete 3/13 2004 Hall of Fame induction ceremonies from Wrestlemania XX weekend in New York City, as well as classic match footage, video features, and comments from current WWE stars on the legends. Inducted into the Hall of Fame that weekend were Jesse Ventura, The Junkyard Dog, Bobby Heenan, Big John Studd, Harley Race, Superstar Graham, Don Muraco, Sgt. Slaughter, Pete Rose, Greg Valentine, and Tito Santana. WWE is currently in production on "The Bret Hart Collection", which I suspect will be similar to the "Ultimate Ric Flair Collection" that was released last year and turned out to be the best selling WWE DVD release to date. A Bret Hart DVD has been discussed seemingly forever as the one DVD WWE fans would want, and now they will get their wish. There is no set release for the disc, but they may try to rush it out for a November release to catch the Christmas season. Also currently in production is a double disc Eddie Guerrero set (due 9/28) and a November Rob Van Dam DVD. There will be a Chris Benoit DVD released in July. Remember you can find all your wrestling DVD needs right here at the PWInsider.com Online Store.
Downhome Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 Every DVD listed in this thread...will be mine.
Cran Da Maniac Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 It's amazing, as shitty as the product can get, that they still come out with some kick ass DVD's.
Guest OSIcon Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 All of that sounds real good. My only question is if the Benoit DVD will be two discs or one biography-style feature? They specifically mention that Eddie's will be two discs, but no word on Benoit's. It would be a shame if is also weren't two discs with mostly matches.
bob_barron Posted April 1, 2004 Author Report Posted April 1, 2004 I hope this isn't an April Fool's joke... PWInsider said they wouldn't be doing any April Fools stories- so it sounds true. Why does WWE have to put out so many DVDs? I gotta eat too!
Downhome Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 Is all of this coming out this year? That's just insane. This is already a great year for wrestling, I'm set this year.
King Cucaracha Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 Will Bret's dvd outsell Flair's? No. I'd suspect a lot of old NWA fans bought Flair's DVD. With all due respect to Bret, he wasn't the top draw in companies for the best part of 15 years. Still...a Bret DVD should be pretty damn special. RVD's one should be decent, and I'm eagerly waiting for the ECW Rise and Fall. Benoit's speaks for itself...but EDDIE GUERRERO's DVD is the best news of them all personally.
Guest Askewniverse Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 Every DVD listed in this thread...will be mine. Same here. I'll also get WrestleMania XX and the Four Horsemen DVD, which were not mentioned in that article. All of these WWE DVDs, in addition to the Star Wars Trilogy will make my bank account a lot lighter.
Zack Malibu Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 I hope this isn't an April Fool's joke... PWInsider said they wouldn't be doing any April Fools stories- How do you know that them saying they weren't reporting any joke stories wasn't a joke in itself! Other than the conspiracy theory, this is great news. I'm saddened by the ECW delay (although I'm sure not much featuring Shane Douglas will make it on there due to his bridge-burning), but I'm going to wind up with these all on my shelf as soon as we get them in.
humongous2002 Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 Holy Shit!!!!!!I gotta have all of those dvds!!!Since RVD is getting a dvd in november does that mean he will get a push with it too??

Guest Man Of 1,004 Modes Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 I also shall be a broke motherfucker. Benoit? Getting it. Guerrero? getting it. Hall of Fame induction ceremony? Getting it. Bret Hart? Oh hell fucking yeah! I'm still on the fence when it comes to RVD and Rise and Fall of ECW, because I was never a ECW fan, and I'm not a hardcore RVD lover.
deancoles Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 I hope one day that the WWE releases a DVD with some of the best Video Packages that they've done, They can make it cheaper than the regular DVD's and they could easily fill an hour with Good quality stuff.

Like the 30 minute Titan Tron Video's DVD that was around $14.95? Pfft. WWE ain't that fuckin' dumb.
Guest Dynamite Kido Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 Damn......The DVD department is on the ball yo......
cbacon Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 Sweet Zombie Jesus! I guess RVD will be getting a summer push now
Lil' Bitch Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 I'm really happy about all this, but I wish they didn't cancel Angle's DVD.
DrVenkman PhD Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 Has RVD signed a new deal yet? If he doesn't, I don't think they'll be releasing this after the fact.
Dobbs 3K Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 I hope the RVD DVD has a Robbie V match from WCW.

Seriously though, I have to get them all...well, time to look for a job I guess!

Homer: Craig and Amy Craig and Amy, why don't you just marry them? Islander: I told you we should've asked" what was that? Islander we call that ackkkkkchak, im sorry fish bone in my throat, we call that earthquake
Scroby Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 YES YES YES YES YES YES THIS ROCKS! I'm just glad these aren't all coming out at one time, bank account might disapper then.
razazteca Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 I don't care about the Hall of Fame dvd but the rest shall be mine.
Use Your Illusion Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 Go on, Vince. Take my money. Take it all. UYI
MillenniumMan831 Posted April 1, 2004 Report Posted April 1, 2004 Ooooo boy, I better ask my boss for a raise . . . or just have him pay me with dvds.
