For their first Home Video offering of the new year, a 3-disc DVD set, WWE has selected nearly 20 of the “best of the best” PPV bouts we’ve witnessed so far this year, beginning with AJ Styles and John Cena battling it out for the WWE Championship at Royal Rumble and running all the way through to AJ Styles and Finn Bálor’s first-time-ever match just this past month at TLC.
In between will be many history-making moments of 2017, the likes of: Bray Wyatt’s WWE title win inside the Elimination Chamber, Goldberg and Brock Lesnar’s mega rematch for the Universal title, John Cena and Nikki Bella teaming up at WrestleMania, the first Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match, Shane McMahon and Kevin Owens’ epic Hell in a Cell encounter, and much, much more!
Along with the matches will be host segments with WWE personality Renee Young. Everything combined, that’s about 9 HOURS of footage that comes packed into this one. We’ve got our hands on the full content listing and we’re giving you an exclusive look at it right here, right now…

The only reason why the mix tag team match from wrestlemania is there is because of the stupid married proposal Cena to Nikki instead it should have been the ladder match because of the Hardy’s return and they should have added the 30 minute tag team iron Man match from great balls of fire I still can’t believe they didn’t added nothing involving the Hardy’s oh well

Angle, Joe, Balor, Shane, Orton,
Strowman &. v. Nakamura, Cena
Jason Jordan. & Roode. -S/S
I know there’s not enough AJ matches but can’t be helped! Plus on my list id rather include survivor series unlike the official set!!!!!!!!!!!
unfortunately these compilations being dvd-only (while having non-exclusive content that is available elsewhere) means I likely won’t get this (just like I didn’t from 2014 onwards).
I already have all the PPV’S that have been released this year so far except no mercy/hell in a cell but that’s because it isn’t out yet.so no point in me buying this set
try walmart so far they been getting the double packs early. i got cell and no mercy this week. a week early
I am surprised they didn’t put Undertaker/Reigns and the TLC main event on actually, just so they could slap Undertaker and Angle’s pictures on the cover, despite what the matches were like. I’m also surprised Goldberg’s mug hasn’t made the front cover.
You stated below the undertaker vs reigns match was crap so why would it be on a yearly Best of set?
And Goldberg isn’t with the company anymore. It’s like saying why haven’t they added La Parka on the cover.
That was my opinion of the match, yes. What I’m saying is I still thought WWE would include it anyway, to include Undertaker in the set.
* sigh *
And re: your second point, that’s ridiculous:
1) Goldberg was with the company in 2017, and it’s a 2017 set. They wouldn’t have a problem with putting him on the cover. That’s like saying wouldn’t put him on the WM33 DVD cover because it came out after he left.
2) La Parka? Who was never a WWE superstar? Lol! You really should have picked a better name to make your point there.
If u can’t figure out why Goldberg isn’t on the cover or why a boring match like Reigns vs Taker didn’t make the set then you’re not very bright then.
You obviously don’t understand my original point, so you’re the one who’s not very bright. Despite the matches being boring (which they were) putting Goldberg and Undertaker’s images on the cover would sell copies. That is why I thought WWE might have decided to include Reigns / Taker.
And how is your comment about La Parka “bright”? La Parka didn’t wrestle for WWE in 2017; Goldberg did – so how can you think those two things are the same? Arguing with you is a new low; at least everyone else on here makes sense in their arguments, even if we disagree. You’re talking total nonsense.
How is Goldberg being on the cover considered “bright” when he’s no longer contracted with the company since leaving after WrestleMania?? You may as well ask why La Parka isn’t there.
I don’t know if you’re being serious or just being a troll.
But La Parka was NOT contracted with WWE in 2017! Goldberg was! Do you not understand what I am saying?
No I don’t know what you’re saying. Goldberg hasn’t been with the company in how many months now?!? It’s not rocket science, dude.
But he is ON the DVD!!! In the content! They often include people who are no longer with the company on covers! You’re acting like there’s some legal reason why he wouldn’t be on it. Sheesh, you’re hard work
And you honestly “don’t know” what I’m saying when I say that you can’t compare Goldberg’s situation to La Parka, because La Parka has NEVER been in WWE?
Don’t bother using logic. You’re wasting your time with this one.
Yeah, I’ve got a feeling he’s the same guy as the anonymous one that did all that trolling about jobbers.
You’re obviously trolling about this.
You’re the one who doesn’t understand the difference between Goldberg working for WWE THIS YEAR and La Parka NEVER having worked for WWE. Nobody is that stupid, so you must be trolling. Many compilation DVD sets have featured superstars on the cover who are no longer with the company, and you know it. Therefore, you are obviously trolling.
I never cared for the Great Balls of Fire pay per view and I still don’t.
Where’s Undertaker V Roman Reigns?
on the WrestleMania dvd. Where else?
Nice smartass comment
A fairly justifiable comment since the match was crap and doesn’t belong on the DVD.
undertaker needed 2 hip replacements it wasnt crap there was a reason
You mean it was crap for a reason? Okay, but that still doesn’t mean it wasn’t crap, even if he has an excuse!
Say what you want but we had some Kick ass matches compared to other years.
I genuinely disagree. 2017 had so much potential with the roster they have, but the main focus went to the likes of Reigns, Strowman, Jinder, Orton and great matches have been few and far between, IMO. Depressing.
while it was still a great match, imo it’s kind of a weird that the Batteground match between the New Day and the Usos is the one put on this set (instead of the Hell in a Cell or SummerSlam Kickoff ones).
I was thinking this; the other two matches were the ones that were raved about.
I guess we’ll never get a Best Pay-Per-View Matches of 1993 or any years after that’ DVD will we
I doubt they’ll do such a release. All PPVs from that year (minus KOTR) are available on DVD. Remember they did anthologies for Royal Rumble, Wrestlemania, Summerslam and Survivor Series? I believe Wrestlemania IX was also released on a single disc DVD.
I live in Europe, and Silvervision released KOTR 1993 & 1994 as a double DVD many years ago.
Even if they were going to do that, why would they start at 1993? The big four have been around since 1988.
There were only 38 PPV matches in all of 1993. You might as well just make a 1993 PPV box set with the 5 complete events.
Cena/Nikki v Miz/Maryse is a strange choice but othere than that a nice collection of matches.
What the actual F is the Cena and Nikki tag match on there for?
We are in the horrible New Era, aka Reality-tv era.. there’s your answer. 🙁
It’s obvious Cena’s proposal is the reason it’s there.
Wtf they should have added the ppv highlights just like last year dvd and Hardy’s vs the bar 30 minute iron Man match that was a bad ass tag team match
Incredible set, with every match deserving to be here, except for the obvious Cena/Miz Tag Bout from ‘Mania. Excellent stuff, WWE.
Not a fan of this set. Cena/Miz tag match, why? Reigns/Strowman could also have been swapped out. I was really hoping for Owens/Reigns, Owens/Styles, Ziggler/Nakamura, The Bar/Hardyz, The Shield & Angle… you know, the GREATEST 2017 matches!!!!!
Looks okay. Might have bought it, if they did a blu-ray.
I have to say that even with the WWE Network being around, this is still a solid DVD release for matches! I didn’t realize how great of matches that the WWE had this year until seeing this match listing.
They bring this out in January. Their own PPVs are on their own network why can’t theh include Survivor Series and December PPVs
eh not bad surprised no owens vs jericho or owens styles matches
Still not understanding why these are not coming out in January after all events for the year have concluded. This can’t possibly be a “Best Of” if several events for the year are yet to even occur.
I couldn’t agree more. It’s not a true reflection of the year if they’re missing out the final two PPVs. That’s why I own a lot of Survivor Series events on blu-ray. But trying telling that to Vince or whoever makes these decisions.
You mean to tell me the Punjabi Prison didn’t make it?!
Or the equally bad Orton-Wyatt at Wyatts house match. Sooooo bad.
Fastlane got the shaft.I would have put Neville and Gallagher on this set since it was easily the best match on that show.
It may well be, but they’re probably against giving Neville any publicity or royalties at the moment.
