  • Reportedly, Jerry Lawler faxed a signed contract to the XWF shortly after returning from the WWA tour in Australia. The length of the contract is said to be only for about 30-45 days but it does give the XWF rights to television exclusivity meaning there would be a legal conflict if Lawler should appear on WWF television prior to the expiration of his XWF contract.

    On Amazon, they are saying that WWF No Mercy will be released on DVD on December 4th, 2001

    It also says Rebellion (whice for some reason has 2002 next to it) will be released on DVD on January 29, 2002

    Also, Survivor Series 2001 will be released on DVD on February 8th, 2002

    And WWF Vengeance (whice hasn't even happened yet) won't come out till Jan 22nd 2002 on DVD. (I wonder why this one will be out before Rebellion and Survivor Series....)

    WWF Rock Bottom 1998: Released on DVD on Feb 5th, 2002
    WWF - Hell Yeah: Stone Cold's Saga Continues: Released on December 4th, 2001 (The cover looks like the original Hell Yeah on DVD. Maybe this is a version with the up to date info on Steve including his return from neck surgery, his turn with Vince at Wrestlemania and his turn to the Alliance. Not too sure. It could be the exact same version. Who knows)
