So my registration got processed and everything ... but when I go to the website in Chrome, all I get is a "Purchase the WWE Network" screen -- even if I click the "sign in" button on the homepage. The heck?

I get the same thing in chrome, both normal and canary, both regular and incognito. Try other browsers, it's working for me in Internet Explorer.

WWF did that too, it was like HHH, Vince & Shane vs Taker, Kane and Rock, winner gets the title. Even if Shane gets the pin.

I used my real address (well an old one) until the state/zipcode/country and just filled it in as a Oregon zipcode - That let me through fine when paying through PayPal.

King of the Ring 2000. If I'm remembering correctly, Rock got the pin on Vince.

That's right. HHH also said that if he won, he would face the KOTR winner for the title (I think).

Bash at the Bash 94 is streaming with no problems (so far). Got to say the main feature of the network for me is the old PPV archive in decent quality, given that no WCW PPVs were released on DVD in the UK and I've only seen them either on DSF (dubbed in German) or via terrible quality VHS.

Nooooo they added "PHONE NUMBER NO LONGER ACTIVE" over Mean Gene's shill hotline number. Boo.

I can't wait for some of the old Raws from the time period I missed to show up (hopefully they will), I never saw any of the brand expansion stuff until WM26 or so, when it didn't mean as much. Very interested to see what that looks like.

It's a little weird to have a live pre/post show for Raw but have everything attached to one timezone -- I'd have to watch the pre-show at like 4:30 my time and the post-show right around when RAW is starting. Does anyone know if it's going to be on VOD for different timezones or am I just hosed for not living in the One True Timezone?

At least in WCW's match the Champion was the one that took the fall.

WCW World War 3 1998. The first ten minutes of the show feature the commentary crew and Mean Gene going through the card, and making sure the US Title match between DDP and Bret Hart is established as an important match.


What a weird thing to see in a wrestling show. Whatever happened to those days?

I was a little annoyed that Chromecast wasn't set up initially, but after a few minutes of watching this at a friends house, I had to sign up for myself. This is some of the best background noise ever. My only fear is that they are going to get into a habit of just running Raw and Smackdown replays on the live feeds during the week. I'd love if they'd just start showing old Raws or Nitro's from the beginning of their runs at the same time every day, but I don't get the impression that they plan to do that.

Also, I was able to sign-up without any trouble (I paid through Paypal).

Didn't WWF do it again in the same time period with the IC belt? Something like Eddie and Chyna vs. Val and Trish?

My only gripe so far is that there seems to be a severe lack of non-ppv WCW. They have an ECW Hardcore TV episode every day, which is awesome...but I don't see anything for WCW on the live schedule at all. The PPVs are fun, but honestly, the Nitro episodes are where the wacky stuff happened. For someone like me who isn't really a fan of the current product, it's disappointing that the only non-PPV options are mostly WWE stuff from the past year or two.

Also, it seems like their live stuff has a ton of repeats (for instance, the HBK/Michaels doc that's on now is shown 6 times over the next two days).

I don't really have YouTube access on my TV. Tried using the YouTube app on my PS3 to track down the pre-show to no avail. The possibility exists, I suppose, that I'm just retarded and unable to track things down properly. But...please, what are the chances of that being the case?:smug:

Looks like they learned about foreign IP addresses in the archive... using a unblock us trial and it's working again.

I was taking a look at the ECW PPVs before, and Barley Legal 1997 is obviously not censored, with the crowd chanting "gently caress you Devon" about 2 and a half minutes in. However, ECW Heatwave 1998 is censored when Shane Douglas says gently caress once.

Is this WWE being inconsistent, or was this how it was originally released?

Yes you do, you've got to get it to pop up the sign-up page for you. Try IE or another browser and go back to wwe.com

Yes, you have to. It's like the "free trials" on Netflix or Hulu, if you don't cancel by the time the trial's over, you get billed.

I'm surprised they care about foreigners accessing the archive. AFAIK the main reason you guys can't have official access yet is contractual obligations to broadcasters to show PPVs and other programs in other markets.

I don't have cable and the archives and ppvs make it worth it to me. I'm just going to continue to stream Raw like I have for years.
