WWE Titan Towers in Stamford, CT
World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. (WWE) is currently the largest sports entertainment company in the world, and across its history has aggressively purchased regional and national competitors, through time amassing a gargantuan library of television programs, pay-per-view recordings, video productions, and recordings of wrestling matches dating back to the 1950s and representing a very significant portion of the visual history of modern professional wrestling and sports entertainment.
The Extensive WWE Videotape Footage Library
The WWE Video Library represents the physical tapes and the copyrights to classic holdings already controlled by WWE, libraries belonging to purchased organizations, and classic libraries directly purchased from folded promotions, totaling more than 75,000 hours of material. While part of the rationale of these purchases may include the historical importance of the physical tapes, the major motivating factor lies in WWE's sale of digitized and restored Library content through video on demand and pay-per-view distribution, internet distribution, and through releases on WWE Home Video, the latter of which netted WWE more than USD $8 Million in the first fiscal quarter of 2006 alone.
The video library archives consist of footage including classic WWF, AWA, WCW, ECW and NWA content Although not wrestling content, WWE's holdings also include footage from the XFL (2001), the World Bodybuilding Federation (1990-1992), motion pictures from WWE Films (2002-present), the Hulk Hogan film No Holds Barred, as well as the Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n Wrestling CBS cartoon series.
