When they were Turner Home Video they were only through mail order, you had to call and order them over the phone. WCW ppvs were sold in stores but they were fairly expensive compared to the WWF ones so I don't think a lot of stores carried them.

I remember buying WCW SuperBrawl '94 in a store when it came out, so maybe some stores got Turner Home Videos, but I can't really think of ever finding the newer WCW PPVs in stores like the ones from mid 1999-2000.

Yeah, I too remember buying W.C.W. video tapes in stores, but not all stores carried them, only a select few did. Some of the ones I remember buying in stores were Spring Stampede, Uncensored, Fall Brawl and Halloween Havoc.
Geez, after naming those off, it brings back alot of memories from W.C.W. I kinda wish they were still around. I wonder what it would be like if they were....

I've only seen one WCW tape for sale in like 1996 it was BattleBowl 93 with the lethal lottery which Vader eventually wins. $10 brand new at Superstore!

WCW/NWA had distribution, it was just very poor distribution, compared to Coliseum Home Video & WWF, that were ALL OVER distributing. Most stores just decided to go with CHV and not look around for WCW, because CHV was releasing like 10 titles a month at one point
