Except for Pay Per Views. www.wrestlingdvdnetwork.com/early-word-on-2020-wwe-dvd-blu-ray-schedule/174589/As a longtime collector I've seen this coming for awhile. Not just because of the network, but mostly because they've pretty much covered everything there is to cover. There are only so many WCW comps they can put out. They also had a bad habit of releasing the same matches on multiple releases. It was a good ride. I'll still keep collecting the PPV's because its just a habit at this point, but it really feels like the end of an era. |

I don't understand why they even bother putting out the PPVs still. Is there anyone who was really absolutely dying to own a physical copy of Stomping Grounds?

Other then the odd pawnshop find, I stopped buying WWE DVD’s years ago. Either CM Punk or the Bret Hart Dungeon Collection Blu Ray was probably the last one I bought brand new.

They've been filling DVDs in the last couple of years with stuff that's not on the Network. |

I really don't see the issue with wanting to have a physical collection of something you enjoy. Now buying every single thing that comes out? Thats another story. Like going to Target or something every Tuesday, and buying every single new release. |

I'm just a completionist when it comes to the PPV's. There's a couple from 2016 that didn't get released, and it drives me nuts lol. I don’t know why they can’t implement a made to order system when it comes to their show titles. You have independent distributors like Smart Mark Video that run off titles according to demand. They make what’s been ordered. They’ll bring some physical copies to shows but everything else gets made and mailed out like an on demand custom service with box and disc art. They even have DVD and Blu Ray options when WWE, supposedly the biggest company in the world, won’t even make Blu Rays copies outside of Mania. Plenty of physical media distribution companies that handle wrestling content still exist because fans are still buying shows. WWE could be making money with a service like that but I guess they get enough money from Fox and the Saudis to care. Idk. |

Honestly, yeah, a WWE made to order service would be absolutely incredible, either just ordering whole shows or arrangements of specific matches. They'd probably make money hand over fist doing that. |

Like going to Target or something every Tuesday, and buying every single new release. I dont think theres an issue at all, I just thib k everything seems to be stored on demand in some form or other these days so I didnt realise it was still a big deal really. Hell I have still have a VCR for my old tapes so I know people like that sort of thing |

I’m pretty sure at this point they’re just releasing them to be fodder for the wal mart $5 bin. Was full of wrestling dvds and wwe studio films the last time I went to America |
