BURBANK, Calif., and STAMFORD, Conn. — Warner Bros. Home Entertainment (WBHE) and WWE have announced a multi-year partnership for home video distribution of WWE programming that will start Jan. 1, 2015, and include United States distribution rights for physical and digital formats.

The new agreement will provide WBHE the home entertainment distribution rights to release new documentaries, match compilations and pay-per-view events, including WrestleMania and SummerSlam, as well as a robust catalog of collectible titles throughout the U.S. The companies have recently worked together on two animated series tied to the Scooby-Doo and The Flintstones franchises.

“WWE is an iconic brand that has one of the most passionate fan bases in sports and entertainment,” said Jeff Brown, General Manager and Executive Vice President, Television, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment. “Since WWE titles accounted for all of the top 10 sports DVDs of 2013 and WrestleMania 29 was the No. 1 sports title, we’re very excited to expand our distribution in 2015 and beyond.”

“We are thrilled to partner with Warner Bros Home Entertainment, a brand that has proven itself to be the market leader,” said Casey Collins, Executive Vice President, Consumer Products, WWE. “They have already demonstrated success leveraging the WWE brand with the hit 'Scooby-Doo! WrestleMania Mystery,' and we look forward to expanding our home video relationship by utilizing their expertise.”
