Jim Ross blogged about a number of subjects on his official website, www.JRsBarBQ.com, including the idea of a TNA-WWE co-promotion (aka it's never going to happen) and the forthcoming Mid-South DVD release. On the DVD, Ross wrote, "The Mid South Wrestling DVD from WWE will be released in September and I'm getting an advance copy likely in early to mid June. Some of the biz' biggest stars will be highlighted when they were jut getting started including the duo of the Bladerunners, Sting and Rock aka the Ultimate Warrior, young Rob Ricksteiner who became the incomparable Dog Face Gremlin Rick Steiner, the Midnight Express vs. Rock n Roll Express rivalry which was as good as it gets in tag team wrestling that I ever witnessed, and even some RARE footage of yours truly going to a Muslim Church with Muhammad Ali and my poolside interviews with "The Champ" at this LA home prior to him coming to Mid South for a Super Dome show and SO much more in the three disc set. The DVD is not a documentary but does contain some extensive interviews from many of the men involved in the promotion that were recorded at WM29 and other locales."
The Marine 3 sold 153, 226 copies in its first month of release in the USA for a gross $2,292,261. That's a really good number for a WWE straight to DVD film.
