Earlier this week we gave an update on the status of WWE PPV DVD releases now the “brand split” is set to increase the number of PPV events with RAW and SmackDown exclusive shows:
Our report noted that Backlash, the first SmackDown-branded event, is unlikely to see a DVD release this year. It also suggested that RAW-branded events could be favored until a release strategy is decided upon for 2017 (double packs of 2 PPVs together being one possibility).
WWE Home Video UK have now confirmed that they will NOT be offering SmackDown’s first PPVs – Backlash and No Mercy – to fans in the UK. One could speculate that the US schedule will follow suit as the two tend to match one another, with the exception of Blu-ray versions.
We've had lots of questions on the new brand split PPVS. Just want to clarify there are currently no plans to release Backlash & No Mercy.

Again, why not just bundle the RAW & Live Smackdown monthly PPVs at a set top price and release them the following month? It just makes the most sense to do.
I do wonder how SmackDown is supposed to be elevated as a show (which I thought was the point of it going live and the brand split) if they are still going to take such steps to show a lack of faith in it. It’s like they’re saying “who the hell would want to buy a SmackDown PPV on DVD”?”

Unless they are all released on Blu Ray, who really cares. The DVD quality is garbage and needs to just go away.
DVDs needs to live on, especially given that WWE refuses to embrace blu-rays in the US.
SMFH Bitch Bitch Bitch
Spoken like a true youngster that didn’t grow up with VHS. BluRay is better, true enough, but to say DVD quality is “garbage” is such an exaggeration.
if DVD is garbage then why does it still exist and still making them after 21 years then? DVD is not garbage
It is garbage. Some stores still sell blank VHS tapes after nearly 40 years. What’s your point?
Any news on the Lesnar DVD?
What aboot it?
I read that is unavailable on Amazon now, is it going to be cancelled or is it going to be released at a later date?
I wrote in a recent article that it’s highly unlikely to be cancelled – but we’ll be sure to give an update once confirmed. 🙂
