However, we’ve received word that Clash at the Castle will see both DVD and Blu-ray editions in the UK market, which is quite significant since Blu-ray offerings for modern-day WWE PLEs in the UK are usually reserved only for the “Big Four” events – WrestleMania, Royal Rumble, SummerSlam and Survivor Series!
Clash at the Castle will take place next month at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales. Matches announced so far include Drew McIntyre vs. Roman Reigns for the Universal title, Shayna Baszler vs. Liv Morgan for the SmackDown Women’s title, and a six-woman tag team match that will see Bianca Belair, Alexa Bliss and Asuka taking on Bayley, Dakota Kai and IYO SKY.
Clash at the Castle 2022 is now available to pre-order on DVD in the US, here on Amazon.com, with UK pre-orders expected to follow soon.
SummerSlam 1992 – 30th Anniversary Edition will officially release on the same week as the Clash PLE takes place in Cardiff. We’ve been told the Blu-ray edition of this SummerSlam ’92 re-release (featuring 3 hours of extras) has garnered “record pre-order numbers” on Amazon — a great sign this concept has been well received by fans.
Above, you can see the final design for the cover artwork with all elements now finished. The Blu-ray sleeve will be double-sided, featuring this photo of the British Bulldog and Bret Hart on the reverse:
WrestlingDVDNetwork.com has also just received the full content listing for SummerSlam 2022 on DVD, which will contain 1 hour and 30 minutes of extras!
SummerSlam will hit stores across the US on August 30th, just 3 weeks from today. Pre-order your copy of the 2-disc DVD here on Amazon.com. Fans in the UK will get SummerSlam on both DVD and Blu-ray formats on September 19th.
The final cover artwork for SummerSlam has arrived and it has changed (again) with Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar now removed from the spine, replaced by Becky Lynch, Bianca Belair, Ronda Rousey and Liv Morgan. This and the back cover are shown below.

I get why the Blu-ray is UK only, the Blu-ray market is better there than here, but still disappointing to think the US isn’t getting it, but we can only blame the people that refused to upgrade from DVD to Blu-ray here.
WWE deserves some blame as well for making the Blu-rays to where you could only get them at Best Buy, WWE Shop, and just online shopping sites altogether. They weren’t available all around like they should’ve been. Only time there was any available outside of what I just mentioned, at least where I live anyway, was when Walmart actually carried Blu-ray editions of Royal Rumble & Elimination Chamber 2011, but to this day they still don’t carry them, even for WrestleMania. K-Mart only ever had WrestleMania on Blu-ray, and Target where I live only carried one WWE release ever, and that was WrestleMania 31 on both formats.
Point is yes, we can blame the customers that never upgraded, but WWE deserves some blame as well for not making them much wider releases for us.
It’s really not WWE’s fault. It’s Warner Brothers, who distribute WWE’s DVDs and BDs in the US. If Fremantle can afford to print WWE events on blu-ray, then WB, who are a way bigger company than Fremantle, can absolutely afford to print them on blu-ray as well. But they choose not to. And why do they choose not to? You already mentioned one of the main reasons, a lot of fans never upgraded to blu-ray because DVDs were cheaper. And yes, WWE also completely mishandled the releases of blu-rays back in the early 2010s.
Pretty much what I meant yeah, just poorly worded on my part. But absolutely, WWE poorly managed the Blu-ray releases here. Unless it’s just my perception, it seemed that way beyond 2010 as well considering Blu-rays remained accessible at Best Buy only, with only few instances you could find them in other stores. Not that they were hard to come by and not that it’s hard to shop online if you can’t find them in store, but I know some people aren’t always gonna go out of their way if they don’t have to.
I was almost disappointed when I saw the headline because I was ready to assume Clash at the Castle would be a UK exclusive release, until I realized we were still getting it in the US. Still a tad disappointed that it’s Blu-ray for the UK only, but assuming the extras aren’t anything special, if there’s any at all, it’s not that big of a deal to me.
I get the Blu-ray edition no matter what the extras look like because of the best quality possible, as well as liking the idea of being able to fit a ton of content on one disc without having to put in a second disc, but unless it’s a release that’s international only, I don’t go out of my way to get a release we already have here.

”THE CLASH AT THE CASTLE” is already sounding like a good pay per view. I DEFINATELY want to see the Liv Morgan/Shayna Baysler match.
I really hope the CatC Blu Ray sells well over here because hopefully it will lead to the other PLEs coming back to Blu Ray
