WWE DVD Blowout at Wal-Mart.

[JaytheGamefan]

I made a post about this in the wrestling board, but it definitely warrants its own thread here - DOZENS of WWE DVDs are $4 and 9 at Wal-Mart locations nation-wide. The ones I saw at the Woodbridge, VA Wal-Mart last night were:
Road Warriors: the Life and Death of Wrestling's Greatest Tag Team
Rebellion '02 (Edge vs. Lesnar),
Unforgiven '02 (Benoit vs. Angle)
Brock Lesnar: Here Comes the Pain ($4)
Chris Benoit: Hard Knocks ($4!)
Rob Van Dam: One of a Kind ($4)
John Cena: Word Life (probably $4, and I'll buy it for the matches with Lesnar, Benoit, and Eddie that are on it)
No Way Out '06 (with Angle vs. Taker, which I'll buy Saturday)
Summerslam '05 (Eddie vs. Rey, Hogan vs. HBK, which I'll buy Saturday)
Vengeance '04 (Edge vs. Orton, which I already own)
Unforgiven '04 (HHH vs. Orton, which I have no major desire to own)
World's Greatest Wrestling Managers (this was $9, and has FUJI VICE... so I'll buy it Saturday)
Bad Blood '04 (HHH vs. HBK in a cell, I'll probably buy it Saturday)
Armageddon '05 (Kash vs. Juvi is excellent)
Backlash '04 (already own it, but it's got Orton vs. Foley and Benoit vs. HHH vs. HBK II, so BUY IT!)
No Mercy '04
No Mercy '05 (Eddie Guerrero's final PPV)
Survivor Series '05
No Way out '04 (Eddie Guerrero wins the WWE title)

Other deals that have been confirmed through photos, but that I haven't seen are:
Taboo Tuesday '04 for $4
Superstar Billy Graham: 20 Years Too Soon for $4
Million Dollar Tough Enough for $4
Before They Were Superstars for $4
The Stone Cold Truth
Taboo Tuesday '05
Backlash '06

I'm probably forgetting some that I saw, as there was just way too much to keep track of mentally, but this is easily the best wrestling DVD deal yet, so stock up on stuff you might've missed before while it's still readily available at Wal-Mart.

[6669]

Yeah, its a YMMV though, for $3.88.

[hhhdx4]

Wal*Mart is always YMMV, though id go crazy if that were at any of mine.

[furyk]

Were these DVDs in a dump bin?

[6669]

Were these DVDs in a dump bin?
The one's I saw were in a bin, yes, but they were all strictly WWE DVDs.

[CaptainCarnage]

The one's I saw were in a bin, yes, but they were all strictly WWE DVDs.

whaaa? which wal mart location was this at?

[furyk]

The one's I saw were in a bin, yes, but they were all strictly WWE DVDs.

If they're in the dump bin, then yes, it's a universal deal. All Wal Marts should have these.

[Jeoff]

Cool there are a couple of those I'd get. I'll check it out.

[JaytheGamefan]

I saw stuff in its own display at the front of the store and in a dump bin in the electronics area. I'm not sure what lead to all of these DVDs being available at such a low price, but I'm grateful for it, as I walked out of Wal-Mart with 5 DVDs for about the regular price of just the Road Warriors set.

Here's a photo of one of the displays (although not the one at my local store, I found this shot online) -

[furyk]

The Chris Benoit set at 3.88 is an absolute steal. I'd also say pick up the Road Warriors set and the World's Greatest Managers set for 8.88 or whatever Wal Mart has them priced at.

[JaytheGamefan]

The Managers and Road Warriors DVDs (managers one is only one disc, unfortunately) are both $9 - I price checked them with an in-store scanner.

[ZForce]

I really hope I don't run into a display like that, my wallet can't take the hit

[ryosnk]

Thanks op going to check my local walmart.

[yobaburp]

WWE suxs, it all rehased crap and xxx smutt. TNA ftw along with INDY and JAP wrestling. It's sad when you have someone like john c. as chump err champ.

[JaytheGamefan]

yobaburp, take that venom to the off-topic board's wrestling thread - this isn't the place for it.

[CaseyRyback]

I agree with Jay, this is not the place for that. Plus even if you don't care for the WWE, there are several DVD's still worth getting. Hopefully the Wal-Mart close to me has some of these available.

[Zenithian Legend]

:roll: Seriously, are you 13 or something? Why thread crap when all Jay is trying to do is post a deal. If it doesn't appeal to you, don't post!

[diaeresis]

There's a world of difference between what WWE broadcasts and what they do with their DVDs. The Benoit set is especially amazing.

[Ma12kez]

Thanks OP! I will have to check this out. Does anyone know if one of the DVDs on sale contain the steel cage match between the Undertaker and Mankind (with ladders and thumbtacks added into the mix) or Undertaker vs. HBK? Those were one of the most memorable matches I remember.

Thats kinda what the one I saw looked like, but there wasn't as much left. They had kinda turned that thing into a bin.

The Taker/HBK Cell match is on HBK's set (maybe Taker's as well), and neither of those are included in this sale... that I know of. The Taker/Foley cell is on at least one of Foley's DVDs and probably Taker's. It didn't involve ladders, but did involve everything else imagineable. None of the sets with the stuff you want are known to be part of this, but that could change, as it seems like WWE and Wal-Mart are combining forces to clear out the remaining stock. It might be due to WWE getting a new distribution parter for their DVDs (Genius) and them wanting to clear out all of their Sony-published inventory, or they just want to clear out a bunch of older releases - either way, it's a win/win deal for fans, as just about every style of wrestling is represented between these various sale items.

Thanks for the notice. I'll see what my Wal-Mart has in-stock though anyway.

[spmahn]

THis seems to be YMMV in regards to whether or not your store actually has the DVD's. Some may just be slower then others in receiving the product or actually placing it on the sales floor, but of the 3 Wal-Mart I was at today, only one actually had the DVDs that were on sale.

This is true, my Walmart seems to get stuff like this in a week late or so. I'm so tempted to just go out right now and see if they have this.

But it's cold outside.

[Demolition Man]

Kent Jones???? Is that you?

I'm going to have to hit on this deal later this week (if my Wallyworld has the bin up yet). Too bad I already own the Benoit DVD. Must get the Road Warriors, BG, and Managers ones tho. :D

[mykevermin]

I may check out my WM, but my guess is that low price WWE dvds in a Wal-Mart is akin to putting an entire honeyglazed ham in the middle of an overeaters anonymous meeting - those in attendance benefit from presence, while everyone else loses.

I recommend anything that isn't a PPV, including the Billy Graham DVD. I don't imagine it sold very well, but I'll be damned if it isn't amazing to watch a man fall apart the way he did (even though they don't really hammer the "this is what happens when you abuse anabolic steroids" point home enough).

Any collections or "best ofs" are well worth $4 or $8.

[onetrackmind]

thanks jay.. tagged

[ryosnk]

Can anyone in the Chicago area verify this if any store has this sale going on?

Thanks.

[GuilewasNK]

Gotta check this out.

[OzCatter]

Picked up Bad Blood yesterday, gonna get Vengence 04 and Backlash 04 this weekend.

[JaytheGamefan]

The Managers DVD seems to be a hidden gem in WWE's DVD catalog, as it has a lot of old footage that isn't on anything else, and yet didn't really get much advertising on WWE TV.

[KingofOldSchool]

I didn't see this at either of my Wal*Mart's the last couple of days, but I will check it out again in a bit.

[Grico]

wasn't at the walmart i checked in lansing, MI

[GuilewasNK]

I got the Lesnar and Benoit DVDs for $3.88 each.


Cena, RVD, SCSA were all $8.88 so I passed.

[JaytheGamefan]

I had a feeling Austin's DVD would be part of it, thanks for the confirmatin. It's a pretty good DVD, but is greatly hurt by only being one disc. The documentary is fantastic, and it's got a good assortment of extra matches - well worth $9 in my opinion.

[ZForce]

Nothing at the Wal Mart in Menomonee Falls, WI. Can someone tell me what matches are on the Brock DVD?

[GuilewasNK]

Nothing at the Wal Mart in Menomonee Falls, WI. Can someone tell me what matches are on the Brock DVD?

Hold on and I'll pop it in my PC.

[GuilewasNK]

Extras for the Brock DVD...

Brock vs. Hogan Smackdown 8.8.02
Brock vs. Rock Summerslam 8.25.02
Brock vs. Taker (Hell in a Cell) No Mercy 10.20.02
Brock vs. Angle Wrestlemania XIX 3.30.03
Brock vs. Big Show Judgement Day 5.18.03
Brock vs. Big Show Smackdown 6.12.03

[ZForce]

that's a pretty solid list of extras for what I presume is a one disc collection. Is the second Big Show match the one where they make the ring collapse? That was awesome

[GuilewasNK]

Is the second Big Show match the one where they make the ring collapse? That was awesome

Yep, thats the one.

It was so cool when I saw that on TV.

Man, I wish Brock was on TV again.

[2Fast]

I made a vow to myself a long time ago that I would never buy a wrestling DVD, but this is hard to pass up.

[JaytheGamefan]

I'm combing through other boards to compile as definitive a list as possible, and Backlash '06 and Taboo Tuesday, '05 are also available in this sale. TT '05 features Flair vs. HHH in a cage, while Backlash '06 had... GOD!

[beane316]

The dvd deals are amazing. Unfortunately, I bought the majority of these for $20 a piece! I do have another deal that's kinda late, though. Before I joined CAG, the Dollar General Stores (shitty place i work...so uh...no cheap pop cuz it sucks :D) had gotten in several different WWE VHS tapes (for those still into VHS) for $2.50! I bought half the box. So, I dunno if they would have any left in any other areas, but I thought I'd pass it along just in case.

[zman73]

Picked up the Lesnar, Benoit, and Graham sets... thanks again!!!

[CaptainCarnage]

Extras for the Brock DVD...

Brock vs. Hogan Smackdown 8.8.02

Brock vs. Big Show Smackdown 6.12.03

which is the one where he totally botches the shooting star press? i'd buy it just for that lol.

[neocisco]

Jay, I liked the way you justified the Cena DVD purchase.:lol:

[2Fast]

WMXIX vs. Angle.

And of course, my Wal-Mart isn't participating.

I hate my Wal-Mart. They still have sealed PS1 games for $29.99.

[JaytheGamefan]

Jay, I liked the way you justified the Cena DVD purchase.:lol:
Well, it ALSO has uncensored battle raps.

[hiccupleftovers]

Hey, this is nice. I might make a run to my Walmart and see if they have any. At $4 I wouldn't mind some classic WWE or even certain ones at $9.

[Wanderlai]

I'll be damned my local WM had the display out next to the checkout lines. I picked up most of the superstar sets: RVD, Superstar BG, Brock Lesner, Chris Benoit, John Cena, Managers, Before they were superstars, Steve Austin, and The Road Warriors( the best tag team ever btw). I hope the LOD one shows some of their classic intrances to Black Sabbath's Iron Man and the scaffold matches while in the NWA.

[GuilewasNK]

The Wal-Marts near me both follow the same philosophy. Most unfortunate!

So... anyone want to get extras?

[Rozz]

Thanks OP - I hope I can get in on some of the $4 WWE DVD goodness.

[darkwingduck13]

Holy crap! Thanks for posting this, OP...I'm gonna check out the nearest Wal-Mart tonight after work. :o

I don't mean to laugh at your pain but...:rofl: .$30 for a PS1 game!?

[Zenithian Legend]

Since the local walmart is filled with a bunch of bad vibe-merchants that aren't selling the WWE dvds, I am posting a wants list here:

Brock Lesnar: Here Comes the Pain
Before They Were Superstars
The Stone Cold Truth

And possibly these, I'll know sometime in the next 48 hours or so


World's Greatest Wrestling Managers
Superstar Billy Graham: 20 Years Too Soon


I'll gladly reimburse anyone willing to help me out.


I don't mean to laugh at your pain but...:rofl: .$30 for a PS1 game!?

It's true! This is the same kind of walmart that has WaveRace: Blue Storm for $50 still.

[mastermind]

the wallmart in williston, nd isn't participating or just hasn't put out the bin yet. hopefully the one in minot has done this already.

[GuilewasNK]

Cool! I used to live at Minot AFB, North Dakota. Hopefully you'll find it in Minot.

[darkwingduck13]

Man, I'm itching to get to Wal-Mart now. Hopefully mine has the bin out. For some reason, I NEVER see deals on WWE DVDs.

[2Fast]

I might have to get the Benoit DVD. It's $3.88 right? How is it, for those who have seen it?

[CaseyRyback]

Damn Wal-Mart near me did any DVD's. They did have a 20GB PS3 which was tempting.

[neocisco]

YMMV for the 2 Wal-Marts closest to me. Nothing but the 3-4 most recent WWE releases. None of the TNA exclusives either.

[JaytheGamefan]

I might have to get the Benoit DVD. It's $3.88 right? How is it, for those who have seen it?
It's $4, and is one of WWE's greatest releases - many wrestling styles are represented in it, and it's basically a set of non-stop 4 star matches. Casey, which DVDs are you interested in?

[nderic]

Secaucus NJ Walmart has them. Picked up 8 DVDs my self. The display is inside the electronics section.

[furyk]

I might have to get the Benoit DVD. It's $3.88 right? How is it, for those who have seen it?

One of the best DVDs on the market, both in terms of match quality and the documentary. I bought this at full price back in the day. Any wrestling fan of any style, type, fed, etc should own this DVD.

Would any kind and/or gentle CAG be willing to pick this up for me?

[RockoMan]

if you can pick me up a few let me know and i'll pay nice ;]

[ndshide]

No go at the Mishawaka, IN walmart. Gonna try a couple other ones tomorrow AM before work.

[JaytheGamefan]

I went back tonight and got No Way Out '06, Before They Were Superstars 2, Superstar Billy Graham: 20 Years Too Soon, Unforgiven '04, and Bad Blood '04. They were sold out of Benoit, Managers, and Cena DVDs, but had Taboo Tuesday '05, Unforgiven '05, and Royal Rumble '06, which weren't there the other day.

[neocisco]

If anybody can get Unforgiven '02 and Lesnar:Here Comes the Pain let me know and we'll try to work something out. Thanks.

[darkwingduck13]

My local Wal-Mart didn't have them set out yet. No bin and no big cardboard display. :-/

[Zenithian Legend]

Gah, where's my brain at, the Walmarts I went to that had no dvds were:

Livonia, MI & Canton, MI

So, if those are your local stores you can save yourself the time.

[Demolition Man]

As usual my local Wallyworld locations suck ass. No displays and the employees as usual know nothing. Not that any of this surprises me about Wallyworld in the slightest.

But hey they still have the McMahon DVD for $20. ZING!

[RockoMan]

nothign at the plantation florida location either.

[WrestleCrap'sRD]

The Benoit disc is WELL worth getting, trust me.

I'll definitely check for the Graham disc next time I'm there. I've been looking for that one for quite a while.

RD

[Sabrett]

Picked up:

Rebellion 2002
Armageddon 2004
Bad Blood 2004
Survivor Series 2005
No Mercy 2005

Armageddon 2005
The World's Greatest Wrestling Managers
Judgement Day 2005
No Way Out 2006
Backlash 2005
Unforgiven 2004
20 Years to Soon: The Superstar Billy Graham Story

Everything else we already have.


*****Oh, and I was in Suncoast today, and they had the following sale prices.
Note: If you think your Suncoast closed, check again....mine closed and reopened (they had the going out of business sale and everything).

Wrestlemania 22 $7.99
All recent months DVDs $12.99
Hulk Hogan: The Ultimate Anthology $14.99
Roddy Piper DVD $14.99
History of the WWE Championship $14.99
Tribute to the Troops (Marked as 99 cents, but rings up FREE)

[Demolition Man]

I actually just picked up the Hogan anthology at Half Price Books for $14.99. However it came with the Walmart exclusive bonus disc.

The "History Of The WWE Championship" is well worth even the $20ish I paid for it. While its light on the 70s era matches (which I'd like to see a bit more of) its still a nice run thru of the history of the title belt. Most worthy of a purchase if you ask me.

[MightySlacker]

No go in Streetsboro and Kent OH. Going to the big ass one in Alliance tomorrow, cant imagine they wouldnt be there

Dave

[furyk]

If you're having trouble finding them, check a few different places:

1. Electronics (obviously)
2. By the 5.50 bins/7.50 DVD racks (again, obviously)
3. Layaway
4. Customer Service (Depending on how your local Wal Mart is designed, this may be where they're stashed)

[Demolition Man]

.... by layaway. WTF? That's the last place I would of thought of looking.

I'll have to remember that next time I look.

I havent seen Flair's dvd at any of the WalMarts that had it, I would think it wouldnt be on sale as it was one of thier top selling dvds ever... if they would only come out with a 4 Horsemen dvd set, Id be happy

:-k That would be pretty typical of walmart to have moved what I want out of sight. I don't shop at Walmart, ever, so I can't say if the stores by me had these dvds at some point recently or not. I'm thinking this sale is only happening at say 1 out of every 4 Walmarts or so.

Is the sale on the Hogan dvd as of this Sunday? I saw this at the $19.xx price when I went to check for these dvds last week.

Also, has anyone tried looking for these at Sam's Club?

[MrDubbs]

Was the Van Dam one really 4 bucks? mine said it was 8 or should I have scaned it

[JaytheGamefan]

It was in the $4 row of the bin at my store, but it could've been moved there by accident. Even at $8, it's a good deal. Realistically, any of the career-spanning DVDs are worth that much.

I scanned it, it was 8, I too prefer the career spanning dvds (such as the Graham set, and the Legacy of the AWA which I got today for 12.99 from FYE) to the rehashes of PPV's as I dont watch current wrestling anymore since the buyouts of WCW and ECW years ago, the competition between the federations was what was so intriguing, monday might became a ritual switching back and forth between Nitro and Raw

WWE needs to release retrospectives of NWA/WCW, 4 Horsemen, & Starrcade (the original supercard preceding Wrestlemania)

[JaytheGamefan]

There was a Horsemen set planned, but that's been nixed. There's going to be a set devoted to great wrestling families in '07, and WCW and ECW weren't bought out - they went out of business and WWE eventually bought the trademarks of each. They ended up paying more for ECW than WCW, which seems so very, very wrong on many levels. Many people stopped watching after the Monday night wars officially ended with the death of WCW - it's one of the biggest reasons why wrestling's fanbase has dwindles so much in recent years.

[RockoMan]

the north lauderdale walmart also has nothing. strike two in broward county for me.

[SenorWooSuavA]

I can confirm this deal for the Wal-Mart in Union, NJ on Rt 22. There is a big stand, like the one on the first page of this topic, right past the McDonald's where you come in. Also, when I was buying the DVDs, I noticed that the only one's that wrang up for 3.88 were the ones from 2004 and the Billy Graham DVD. The one's that were 8.88 were the one's from 2005 to the present and all the Road Warriors, RVD, etc.

[richbastard]

I will check mine tomorrow,good stuff!

Maybe ECW, but if WWE just bought the trademark of WCW, how would they have ended up with their back catalogue, yes they bought the trademark, but that was part of the whole package including wrestler contracts (and the reason why Sting wasnt seen for so long I assume, just waiting for his contract to run out so he never had to actually work for WWE)


http://money.cnn.com/2001/03/23/deals/wwf/

See they WERE bought out, I did follow this story for months and was sad to see WCW go , even though I prefered it in the 80's when controlled by Crockett under the banner of NWA

[JaytheGamefan]

My mistake - I shouldn't have just said trademarks (I was mainly thinking ECW when I said that, since that's really all they bought aside from the library), but saying that the WWF "bought out" WCW just doesn't work for me for some reason, since the other potential buyer backed out, leaving WWE as the only company willing to purchase it. The company either died or was bought by the WWF since they had no TV deal - there weren't other options available at that point. WWE only acquired about 20 contracts, and didn't buy any contracts out other than Booker T and DDP, and just waited for other deals (like Goldberg's) to run out before persuing them.

WWE got the trademarks and footage for ECW, but they got into a mess of trouble using the logo and theme without having any legal right to in '01 since Heyman told them he could use them, even though he had no ownership of the company at the time. '01 was such an exciting year for so many reasons. It's hard to believe that it's been roughly 6 years since ECW died, and nearly 6 since WCW died as well. Anyways, back to the Wal-Mart deals - has anyone but that one guy seen 'Taker's set available as part of this sale?

[MightySlacker]

Just opened Backlash 04 to find...NO DISC INSIDE. Not very happy about that one.

I think I got the last copies of Benoit and Graham.

They had lots of the PPV Sets and each dvd I bought was $3.88

can anybody pick me up a few dvds? im especially looking for the billy graham one. thanks

[OzCatter]

The IV Horsemen DVD wasnt canned, still in the making

[JaytheGamefan]

I don't recall seeing it on WWE's '07 DVD release list, but I hope you're right, as they've certainly got all the material needed for a classic Horsemen set.

This multi-disc release will cover the creation of the Horsemen, and is filled with exclusive interviews from many of the Superstars who were part of this groundbreaking group, as well as rivalry highlights and complete match."

Maybe ECW, but if WWE just bought the trademark of WCW, how would they have ended up with their back catalogue, yes they bought the trademark, but that was part of the whole package including wrestler contracts (and the reason why Sting wasnt seen for so long I assume, just waiting for his contract to run out so he never had to actually work for WWE)

See they WERE bought out, I did follow this story for months and was sad to see WCW go , even though I prefered it in the 80's when controlled by Crockett under the banner of NWA

Ok, all this discussion cannot go by without me pimping my book, The Death of WCW, available at finer bookstores everywhere. It has all the details of WCW's history as well as its demise.

You may now resume your cheap ass reading. 8-)

Went to another Wal-Mart and was shocked to actually find that they had this set up (but was even more shocked to see Robocop on XBox on display in the case for $49.99). Picked up Royal Rumble 04 ($4), No Way Out '04 ($4, where Eddie wins the strap from Brock) and RVD's set ($8). They had loooooots of Benoit, Cena and Billy Graham ones, as well as Before They Were Superstars.. will go back next week after I get paid.. maybe. Dunno. I kinda want Rumble '06 but it was $8.

I bought Rob Van Dam: One of a Kind and the Billy Graham Story.

The Rob Van Dam: One of a Kind DVD is $8.88. Not $3.88.

Checked my closest Wal-Mart again yesterday...still nothing. I'm going to keep watching, though!

The Benoit, Brock, Rumble '04, Rumble '06, and Summerslam '05 deals are also on walmart.com. I'm checking the other ones as well.

No.

Out of 6 walmarts only one had any of these...when I asked the others that didnt, they didnt know what i was talking about.

The Benoit, Brock, Rumble '04, Rumble '06, and Summerslam '05 deals are also on walmart.com. I'm checking the other ones as well.

The majority of these dvds are online now. The list includes the majority of the 2004 ppvs (save for WM, Summerslam & Survivor Series of course) marked at $3.88 each, around half of the 2005 ppvs (including Eddie's final ppv marked at $8.88 each, and Summerslam) and a handful of 2006 ppvs, also $8.88. The RVD, Road Warriors, Managers, Cena and Stone Cold Truth dvds are also on there at this time and I believe each was $8.88. They also had the Tough Enough, Before they were Stars 2, and Rebellion dvds, each for $3.88. I could not, however, find the Benoit, Billy Graham or Brock Lesnar dvds. With tax & shipping they come out to about $5 for the $3.88 ones and $10 for the $8.88 ones.

I hope this helps out anyone who has had trouble finding these in stores.

I also came across the Royal Rumble box set, marked at $150 and scheduled for a March 13th release. The set was divided into 4 volumes like the WM Anthology, so hopefully they are released as 4 separate volumes as well.

I was going to go back to get a couple more, but they were sold out... and I saw - around - 50 DVDs two days earlier.

I guess an eBay hoarder picked them all up.
