I cannot wait to buy it it looks awesome, the matches are awesome,and its only 19.99! but the only thing that can stop me from buying in store is the stupid cahsee i have to take tommorrow.
I am looking forward to buying this DVD.
When will royal rumble 2015 dvd come out?

Nice compilation. But I agree with Steven and StaceyPink. Kane’s attack on Bryan and the Bryan/Usos vs Wyatts Steel Cage match should be included as should the Jericho/Bray Wyatt Steel Cage match.
My main gripe is that this isn’t on bluray. To my understanding, DVD’s are not HD. So that means all the above, originally broadcasted in HD, will be scaled down to SD.Better than not having it released at all I guess, but still…
One thing I was hoping for was Kane’s attack on Daniel Bryan before extreme rules. You know tombstone on the floor, steps and announce table.
Some good matches here, but right away i notice the Usos vs Daniel Bryan/Bray Wyatt cage match missing from the Raw before the Royal Rumble. The ending with Bryan breaking away from the Wyatts and getting one of the loudest and most over reactions ever was huge and one of my favorite of the year.
whats the blu ray extras?
The Blu-ray was cancelled.
are u ficking kidding me? this is not going to be in blu ray not in usa and not in europe and not in anywhere?
Disc 3. Seth Rollins explains his side
Smackdown June 6 2014 –
Will this also include the match with Dolph Ziggler?
Decent set in general but I agree that shield v Wyatt’s and Daniel Bryan leaving the wyatt family should also be included!
I’d of also liked the batista v Ziggler match from the UK instead of the one we got plus orton v Ziggler, sheamus v batista and kanes evisceration of Daniel Bryan.
at least Seth Rollins vs dean Ambrose is on there, I wasn’t excited until I saw disc 3
Surprised there’s nothing on Evolution vs The Shield!
The only thing Evolution vs The Shield related is from the 4-14-14 Raw after The Shield had that Handicap Match against the Heels on the roster.
“20 full length matches.” Does this mean no commercial interruption?
Also, I’m disappointed in the Ultimate Warrior’s appearance not making the cut. I like the idea of alternate commentary on some of the matches though. Seeing as there is no blu ray release of this anywhere, I guess they got to do something to attract buyers of this.
I’m guessing…
There’s probably going to be another Ultimate Warrior set released in 2015 (or 2016?) & they will put his Raw appearance on that, along w/a documentary hopefully!
it is the same with these (so called) Best of Raw and Smackdown or Best of ppv’s sets.. but, I gotta agree with Timothy on this one with the Warrior’s RAW segment the night after WM.. especially historic with what sadly happend the day after. If his appearence in a RAW ring is not a moment to be captured on a Best of the year, than I don’t know what is.
I really hope though at least that they will indeed go on to make another Warrior bluray release, and not just put it on the Network.
Question:
I tape my own version for the Best of Raw and Smackdown and it looks like there are some matches missing like Cena/Rollins from Smackdown, but is recording a pay-per-view from the WWE Network stream possible on either the Network itself or a computer to tv hdmi cable? I don’t have the Network since I have no wi-fi in my area – using 3G.
If you mean is it possible to record shows onto DVD from the WWE Network, the answer is yes. If you have a streaming box(Roku, AppleTV, etc.) and that box has a composite output(yellow/red/white wires) then all you have to do is connect those wires to a DVD recorder and you’re good to go. I use the Roku 2 to record on to DVD. As for blu-ray, that I’m not sure of. Standalone Blu-ray recorders are ridiculously expensive and they would need to have either an HDMI input or a component input(blue/purple/green wires). But again, yes it is possible to record on to DVD from the WWE Network.

Surprised they didn’t include Wyatt Family vs. Shield from March 3 in Chicago.
There will be no Blu Ray release anywhere for this. I emailed www DVD in the uk about Blu Ray releases in general and got this reply;
All of the upcoming PPV will be Blu ray. At the moment it is just Best PPV and Best Raw and Smackdown on DVD only as they are not big sellers and were no on BD in the US which greatly increases the authoring/mastering costs.
So please be assured the vast majority of releases will get a blu ray release.
as long as Royal Rumble and WrestleMania’s are still avaliable on Bluray, I’m happy.. those are the only ones I collect these days.. Only got elimination chamber this year because of the awesome clash of factions. Rest of the year is more miss than hit the recent years..
thanks for the info.. 🙂
Will there be a blu ray release for UK?
Every year I think ‘wow what a poor year for WWE’ Then I read the listing for their best of DVD’s and think ‘Damn, not a bad year!’
Weather it’s in Blu Ray or DVD I think this listing is quite good. I look forward to getting this
When will the WWE TLC 2014 artwork be finalised & be up on to the website?
How on earth is Daniel Bryan leaving the Wyatt Family not on here?
would be one of the Bluray exclusive extras..but, of course it makes no sense producing a bluray release with HD filmed material! At least, that is appearently the WWE logic, now also for the European market.
Oh well.. maybe come Eastern, there will be unlocked some Eastern Eggs on the DVD releases like this.. or something just as stupid, as having HD filmed material relesed on SD media.
