What is the World Wrestling Network, and what does it have to do with SHIMMER?
The World Wrestling Network is the company in Tampa, FL that handles all of the editing of the DVD releases for Ring of Honor, SHIMMER, and Full Impact Pro. Q: What’s this about “first run” DVDs and “retail versions?” A: When each new title in the SHIMMER DVD series is released, we get an initial batch of DVDs made to sell. Thus far, it has taken roughly a year and a half to sell through the entire first run of a given release. Once the first run has sold out, that footage goes to Big Vision Entertainment to release in retail. Due to the high costs involved in getting the initial batch of DVDs made ourselves, once that first run is gone, we do not re-issue that DVD ourselves. ROH simply begins to sell the Big Vision/retail version of that title at that point.
