RETAIL SHIMMER DVD BARGAINS!
----------------------------------------------------------

SHIMMER's partnership with Big Vision Entertainment has put the SHIMMER DVD series in retail stores and in the hands of casual wrestling fans around the United States.

Currently, Vols. 1 through 3 are available in retail (in some retailers on their store shelves, and for some just via their web sites). Vol. 4 is scheduled for an August 7, 2007 retail release.

With the recent great success of Big Vision titles "Hardcore Homecoming" and "Forever Hardcore" in retail in the United Kingdom (ranked #1 and #3 respectively for this week), there's a strong chance SHIMMER and other Big Vision pro wrestling titles will have a retail presence in the UK at some point in the future as well.
