I doubt thats ever going to happen. With Classics on Demand, and with their channel they have on the way it would just be much more cost effective to show them that way. Lets face it, the WWE home video market is niche enough for most stores, and when I say WWE, I mean just pure WWE stuff. The people wanting old NWA/WCW ppv's is an even more niche. It'd be nice if they did it, I just don't see the buyers for major retail stores agreeing to sell those. The WWE dvd's/blu's they get now are in very limited quantities. The only way I see WWE doing this is if they sold them directly. That's all well and good for the US but We (Outside) don't get Classics on Demand. Now if they did a Worldwide "buy Disk"/"Download" by the order rather than Mass Distribution then I'd be OK with that. You get unblurred, unedited tagged classics. Its a fair tradeoff lol. |

That's disappointing. I really wanted the '97 and '98 Survivor Series events on DVD. Well, that appears to be the misfortune of Survivor Series Anthology. WWE finally started doing volumes instead of the box sets right around the same time the market tanked, which may be part of the reason they stopped. I also wonder if the desire to be more PG kept them from doing more volumes since they were almost to the Attitude Era for Survivor Series as well. I'd love to see Starrcade, but I guess a lot will depend on how much the season sets of Nitro sell. Here is the thing with Starrcade though. Alot of the people watching the early Starrcade's arent the people who were watching Nitro. I'm betting people wanting a Starrcade set are mostly wanting the early ones. |

Its all good though, I just discovered that I can buy Tagged Classics from Amazon's UK site, and they'll ship them to the US. I just hacked an old DVD player I have to be region free, so I can actually watch them as well. |
