World Exclusive Artwork – Sainsbury’s

At the showcase of the immortals “The Beast Incarnate” Brock Lesnar defends his WWE World Heavyweight Championship against the number one contender, Roman Reigns. Plus, the United States Championship is on the line as John Cena fights for America against the undefeated champion, Rusev.

Undertaker returns to answer the challenge of “The New Face of Fear” Bray Wyatt, and for the first time ever, “The Vigilante” Sting competes in a WWE ring against “The Game” Triple H.

Legacies will be defined and history will be made at WrestleMania.

The exclusive artwork is featured on the slipcover/sleeve as shown in the photos above.

Unlike the recently released US version WrestleMania 31 DVD, the UK’s has a paper insert detailing the content of each disc, rather than listing the content on the discs themselves.

    will HMV be stocking WrestleMania XXXI {3 dvd set} as well?

  2. Matty says:

    There’s one thing I do love about the Sainsburys cover and that is Seth Rollins in the background of Lesnar/Reigns…love little details like that.

  3. THOMAS says:

    People, stop complaining about the artwork for the UK Sainsburys Exclusive Alternative artwork for WrestleMania XXXI {3 dvd set}

  4. Shane says:

    I want the metallic sleeve in Australia!

  5. Jayke1981 says:

    Personally speaking, I prefer the “Bohemian Rhapsody Galileo” cover than the 4 quarter Sainsbury’s cover. As for the metallic finish? Yeah, I’ll miss out on that – but I’m pleased with what I pre-ordered!

  6. David says:

    Slightly disappointing that it’s DVD only, might have got one if it had been bluray

  7. Richard says:

    The 2015 plopped into the middle of the artwork seems silly and cheap.

    Vince doesn’t want the number 31 attached to the name Wrestlemania out of fear it would “date” the event, but what does he do for this “specially designed cover”? He puts the date on it.

    It’s as dumb as that cheesy artwork that’s supposed to be Undertaker.

    • LP1 says:

      Yeah. The whole “it dates the event” thing is another one of Vince’s new pet peeves. I guess he feels the higher the number gets, the less interest people will have. I mean, he must be right. Look at the SuperBowl. This year was SuperBowl 49 and… it was the most watched television show in the history of television. Well, there goes that theory. lol

      • Lee Hayman says:

        Personally, I feel it adds more prestige as the number gets higher. Vince is so out of touch. Lol.

  8. Justin F says:

    That’s not Undertaker…

  9. SRB says:

    Great cover. I like it much better than the American one.

    Undertaker looks like Roman lol

  10. attitude.era.4life says:

    nothing really beats the limited wm XX box set..you really felt, you got something special with that one, unlike this ultra-light version of a so called speciality..

    • Daniel Bee says:

      I think getting a completely different cover (albeit the slipcover) is pretty good going for a store exclusive these days. Beats just throwing dog tags in with it.

      More people might go for the ASDA one if it were a special tin or something.

      • attitude.era.4life says:

        comparing it to just having dog tags thrown in, I have to agree with you for sure, Daniel.. thinking about it, if they would continue with exclusive boxes similar to the XX, that one would loose its rarity.
