OH HELL YEAH!!
Joining the previously-announced Undertaker: Complete WrestleMania Collection on the Q4 2022 WWE DVD schedule in the UK will be a new Stone Cold-themed release:
“Austin 3:16: Best of Stone Cold Steve Austin”
This will bring the WWE Network feature that premiered on ‘3:16 Day’ (March 16th) earlier this year, hosted by Steve Austin himself, to a physical DVD you can add to your collection. That’s over 3 hours of content, a line-up that includes:

Following the near-cancellation of WWE DVD releases going into 2022, the turnaround on that decision by the company left WWE DVDs in the US as PPV/PLE titles only (no compilations/features), so unfortunately the new Austin one in the works looks to be an exclusive to the UK and Europe.
“Austin 3:16: Best of Stone Cold Steve Austin” is scheduled for release to the UK on October 3rd, a 1-disc DVD with Fremantle catalog number FHEDWWE339.
“Undertaker: The Complete WrestleMania Collection” is the other ‘non-PLE’ release closing out 2022, scheduled for release to the UK on November 14th, a 6-disc DVD set with Fremantle catalog number FHEDWWE342.
Stone Cold’s newest WWE DVD comes off the back of him returning to in-ring action this year, main-eventing night 1 of WrestleMania 38 in a match against Kevin Owens. On that ‘Mania weekend, The Undertaker was inducted into the Hall of Fame, and some buzz is building now around a potential appearance from ‘Taker at the upcoming UK stadium show Clash at the Castle, given he’s in town for his “UNDERTAKER 1 deadMAN SHOW” the night before the premium live event.
Money in the Bank 2022 officially released on DVD to fans in the US this week, and fans in the UK don’t have long to wait as it will follow this coming Monday!
The US version includes a free Riddle sticker. Thanks to WDN reader Scott Bowers for the pics.

Wow, big thank you to WWE for finally making all of that Stone Cold content available!
while I’ll always appreciate more non-ppv dvds, this is probably a pass for me.
unless I’m mistaken, there’s literally nothing on there I don’t already own. and even further it’s not like those matches are spread throughout countless dvds either. since literally ALL matches (since it’s a one disc release I don’t assume the Rumble match isn’t put on in full) and 1/3 of the other segments are on the “Bottom Line” dvd/bluray.
They need to do another Unreleased Matches set.
On the fence about getting the Stone Cold DVD. It’s content we already have, however, it would be a cool novelty item since it could realistically be the final original release before they go the PPV only route.
Obviously I have no way of knowing for sure that they’re gonna go the PPV only route eventually, but it feels that way given that special releases went from from 3 discs, to 2 discs, and now they’re 1 disc. Only multi disc sets we’ve seen recently have been re-releases of older titles but with an additional disc.
I wouldn’t be surprised if special features continued elsewhere but not here, but I also wouldn’t be surprised if it’s eventually PPV only releases worldwide given that they’ve condensed in content and releases altogether.
I don’t mind importing given that the fees where I’m at are nonexistent, but it’s still a shame that we don’t have any special feature releases here anymore.
One I was wanting most of all really however was Ruthless Aggression vol. 2. We already got vol. 1 here, might as well give us the other too.
Would’ve also liked Dawn of the Attitude 25th anniversary edition since the bonus disc content on that was the Blu-ray exclusives of the original release, and since our Blu-ray edition was canceled.
SummerSlam ’92 I can understand being UK only, and that’s something I’ll get.
And Undertaker might be one I don’t care to get since that’s just a 21-1 re-release with a bonus disc. Only way that would’ve been worth it is if they somehow got the clearance to use Johnny Cash and Metallica for the WrestleMania 27 match.
