365 days in a year, 366 in a leap year.
So that leaves us with 52 weeks of WWE programming a year. RAW is two hours so that makes 104 hours of RAW. It might work better on Blu-Ray, considering it would take alot of discs on regular DVD.
If McMahon put it out on DVD, would you buy it?

The earlier years, yes, but anything from the past 2-3 years, not likely.

Completely depends on what year it was. If it was a year that had lots of memorable moments that would be fun to relive, then definitely. I actually have some old Raws on VHS that I taped off of TV from over 10 years ago, and I was surprised when I went back and watched it and the gems that were on there. For example I saw the very first time the Ringmaster was called Stone Cold Steve Austin. It's funny to hear the announcers have to explain who Steve Austin is to us... "Yes this is the man formerly known as the Ringmaster, now he is known as Stone Cold Steve Austin!"

Man, McMahon is sitting on a gold mine...
If doing the whole year was too much, how about a VH1 style show like "I Love the 80s" or something like that.

Well it would only be like, say, an hour, hour 15 minutes each week because they wouldn't need to add commercials. But yeah it would be huge.
He might be able to do it on blu-ray, but then you're dealing with converting it to HD, lack of market, etc. I don't think it will happen for a long time.

Well say you are fitting two episodes per disc, thats 26 discs. The Wrestlemania anthology was 33 I believe. It can be done, and I would certainly buy it!

I think he does better putting it on 24/7 now.

If they released the monday night wars in dvd format.
a year by year anthology
if people will dish 100 dollars for star trek seasons (price when they first came out) the same line of thinking could be applied to monday night dvds.

They could split it into smaller parts to make it easier, and fewer disks.
Like say, release January through April as a set, then May through August as another, and finally September through December as the last set. Do that for each year.

I have long advocated this...almost 10 years ago I had this same idea. You can put out two sets of discs. One has the actual shows, say 3-4 discs per time period. The other would just be a single-disc "Best Of", say "Raw September-December 1995". Although I think they should go every 3 months instead of 4 once they go to 2 hours in 1997.

Considering that I've got the majority of them on tape/disc from the last 3 years, I'd also be interested in the first few years. So I don't know if I would be willing to invest a lot into them.
Plus, I know WWE would want to edit them all to hell like with their PPV's, so I'll pass.

No way... 12 discs almost... that would be ridiculous. Who wants to spend over a 100 dollars for just 1 year of 15!.
A better idea would be coming out with like three 5 year sets: 93-97, 98-2002, 2003-2007 covering the best matches and segments.

When I first heard of the WWE network I thought that it would be an actual network filled with old programming from WWE, WCW, ECW etc played around the clock. I'd still like that if it was at all possible. Buying the seasons would be cool, but it would be kind of a chore to go through them. I'd much rather flip to a channel and get some random gems.
