Just found something a bit exciting, a while ago WWE teased a Undertaker on 5 matches Taker had you didnt know and one was Taker/Savage that they taped.

 

Now on my local wrestling news site I saw WWE is after ideas on what DVD titles should come out in 2017 and one was called Unreleased matches 1986 - 1995 which would be awesome news because that match would fit perfect on that collection.

 

 

As seen below, WrestlingDVDNetwork.com has revealed another 22 titles being considered for next year:

I don't think this list seems very credible... The possibility of a Punk Set, while nothing really has happened since the last one and the relation between him and WWE, seems small to non-existent... That Survival Mode set WOULD be interesting, but I think WWE is WAY too delusional to publish something so self-critical... The 2 rivalries sets, while sounding very interesting, are both based on ECW feuds, and while they don't shy away from ECW, I can't imagine releasing something this specific...

Some of these sets sound really great and I would love to own them, but I'm not really optimistic they're even considering them.

These lists have been fairly accurate in the past, although we're far more likely to get that Kane set than Dreamer v. Raven for sure.

The list is credible. WWE sent it via email in survey format. They actually sent 2 surveys. The other one has choices of Rick Rude, Kurt Angle and a Taker set with a doc. Check out wrestlingdvdnews.com for more info. Most of the surveys I get our about the PPVs which I rarely fill out. I do enjoy these DVD ones.

Do Taz and Sabu even have enough full matches against each other that made tape to fill up a whole DVD set? I'd imagine they'd have to pad it out with matches where they tagged together.

 

They wrestled a bunch - early on (1993), a few matches in '97, but then a few times more in '98-99. And it would make sense to include some of those matches where they tag together.

Just saw that they are releasing an "Attitude Era Unseen" set next month. It has some dark matches from a few In Your Houses in '96 and some Raw dark matches and house show footage. I hope they start to release more of this kind of stuff they have in the vault.

 

Yeah that even had listed a The Nation of Domination vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Undertaker, Cactus Jack & Chainsaw Charlie match. Didnt know these 4 tagged up in the dark matches.

 

Even this one Stone Cold Steve Austin, Cactus Jack & Chainsaw Charlie vs. The Rock & The New Age Outlaws suprised me as had no idea Rock was tagging with DX but its great that are finally getting the Kuwait stuff out now.

That would be before NAO joined DX / before WM14.

With them digging up house show footage, I wonder if they'll ever release some interesting house show rarities like that 1991 battle royal with Andre the Giant in it, or HHH vs Lesnar (from 2002), or anything from the pre-ppv KOTR shows (there is handheld footage of the 1991 tournament, but thats it).

How did the selling of Raw after the show do?

 

Im guessing it sold pretty well for them to do Raw Vol 3 unseen stuff. Its probably the one DVD thats interesting as 100 percent will be new unseen stuff.

 

Im a bit suprised they didnt release Owen/Angle yet.

 

But its interesting to what they might have taped during these TV tapings.
