Silver Vision Limited was a British video production and distribution label, and a subsidiary of Clear Vision Limited. The company was based in Enfield, London, England. The company is most famous for being the official home video distributor for WWE in Europe from 7 July 1990 to 31 December 2012.

History

In 2004, Silver Vision launched the WWE Tagged Classics DVD range, with each release typically compiling two reissued WWF VHS releases from the 1980s to early 2000s. These releases took advantage of an April 2003 British court ruling, enabling WWE to use the former "WWF" initials in legacy footage, following a prior loss in the WWF trademark dispute.

On 19 September 2012, Silver Vision announced on their website that the partnership between their parent Clear Vision Ltd. and WWE would end on 31 December 2012, with SummerSlam 2012 and nWo: The Revolution being the label's final WWE release. Silver Vision announced they would continue to release WWE DVDs while supplies last. On 19 November 2012, it was announced that FremantleMedia (now Fremantle) would be the new WWE Home Video distributor for the United Kingdom and the rest of Europe. Silver Vision's website sold their last WWE DVDs by June 2013 and after that date, the brand officially was dissolved, with their website redirecting to their parent company Clear Vision afterwards.

In January 2013, Queensway Digital, Clear Vision's parent company, announced they had secured the deal to release Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) DVDs after losing their WWE license. In December 2013, the company entered administration. On 29 July 2014, the company went under a voluntary strike-off.

The company continued to release film DVDs and sell depleted WWE stock until 2017, when its online store went offline, with its domain soon lapsing.

Home media

Silver Vision released roughly 100 to 200 DVDs in 14 years from 7 July 2000 to 29 July 2014, which are: 1: documentaries about the WWE wrestlers, 2: two ECW documentaries and two PPVs, 3: all of the WWE exclusives and WWE Tagged Classics series.
