Would there be any interest in picking like one show a week to watch and talk about? Like a random awful WCW PPV or ECW Hardcore TV or something.

Tho I did hear unconfirmed stuff about getting thrown out of an arena recently.

Didn't he win a bit of cash on Let's Make A Deal one time that had a bunch of WWE guys showing up in support of him?

Another Aussie signing in. Running the network thru Unlocator. Seems to stream the live stuf fine, but I am having a lot of trouble with the older VOD content. It seems to be very very hit and miss for me. Mostly miss. I get the rating video no worries but then I just get the spinning circle a lot and then an error. Refreshing works rarely.

When it does work it's almost instant video.

Any suggestions for me?

For everyone who wants to see a story expertly told through wrestling moves Owen against Bret at WM10 is a perfect example. I think someone here said that it was a great example of wrestling as an art form and I have to agree. By far my favorite match, eclipsing Savage/Steamboat at WM3 and Guerrero/Mysterio at Halloween Havoc 97. I'm turning into a Hart mark fast. Sorry Macho Man.


I probably would have never seen those matches without the network. This poo poo rules.

Canada here. I'm using Hola through Chrome with no problems whatsoever. It's a bit slow at times but I think that may be an issue with my own connection. It certainly loads everything I've tried.

e: I'm loving the Maple Leaf Gardens shows in the Old School section. They're slightly before my time as a fan but shows from that building always give me chills since my first wrestling events were there. Now it's a grocery store.

I'm in the States but had the same problem. I typically use Firefox, and live content/newer VOD works fine, but for older VOD I have to use IE. Not really sure why that is, but it solves it.

That's what I was thinking of! I remember after either big boot or leg drop HBK gets up, flails around (you see Hogan then turn around and glance at him kinda like "oh poo poo he's still standing") then dies.

-- HAHAHA after searching for that gif I found a few others, and realized it's been a long time since I've seen that match. He really does oversell everything. I especially liked:

I'd always liked HBK (except for the jannetty feud because jannetty owns) but that Hogan match solidified him as one of my favorites of all time.

Not that I expect them to add this feature now, but one thing that really sold me on Netflix was the ability for the software to always remember what I was watching and where I stopped it, even for multiple shows/movies. I could start watching at home, pick it right up on my tablet while on the go, and finish it up at a friend's house later. The Network not having a queue or a 'Recently Watched' section (unless I'm missing it), especially when they advertise that it works across many devices, is a big whiff for me.

I think stuff like this always ties back into the reports that "WWE is surprised at the number of people interested in the back catalogue"

Have they said anything about adding Total Divas to the show lineup? Perhaps on a one-month delay like they are supposedly going to do with current Raw episodes? I'd like to start watching that show, but the Network has spoiled me to the degree that DVRing everything and watching in order feels like a real chore.

It is especially annoying considering that the majority of their on-demand catalogue is made up of 3 hour shows. Very rarely will I watch one of those in a single sitting, so I have to manually seek my spot each time I resume.

I've been to plenty of WWE/ROH house shows, but the only live PPV I went to was a great one. I was dating my now wife at the time and we found out each other was into wrestling and that she was a monstrous Undertaker fan. I surprised her and went balls out for WrestlaMania 25 tickets (I live in Illinois, it was in Houston). Seeing HBK vs the Undertaker was so much fun and I have never felt that much energy from a crowd before or since. We had $105/each tickets which put us on the first level off the floor which were way nicer than I ever dreamed of. It was such a great show.

You have to back out to the main menu of the app, then select WWE Network.
