I signed up pretty easy. It took maybe like 5 minutes or so and it seems to be working great. This is pretty cool.

The only problem I've had so far is the ppvs have some hiccups. But the stream it's self is working great. In fact the quality seems better than Netflix. Im using a ps3

I was wondering if PPV's were going to be put up immediately after the initial airing. I usually work on sunday nights so I tend to miss them.

I was so pumped to see that WM X7 has all the music intact. So we actually get the video packages with My way.

I agree. The Austin/Rock package is maybe the greatest they've ever done.

I also remember that when they released the wwe Wrestlemania boxset collection X7 was probably the most edited of them, because the blurs were terrible, and My Way was used constantly during the show and that was all taken out. Not to mention that the original x7 dvd goes for like 90 bucks on amazon and is hard to find. So it's pretty rad to get that show unedited.

Wow. I think I have that in a box somewhere. All of the original DVD releases of those Wrestlemanias from that era. Might have to dig them out.

I just looked at the Amazon page for it, and 90 dollars is a used dvd and that's the lowest. Someone is selling a brand new copy for 685 dollars.

Still lovely VOD for me, on PS3. Instead of stalling for 2 minutes, playing 3 seconds and stalling for a minute... it'll stall for 2 minutes and then go back to the menu. So that's progress I suppose

Yeah VOD on ps3 is screwing up for me too. It's just not even working right now. The stream is still going strong though.

I'm hoping someone can explain a couple of things to me.

1) What was the story line behind Tajiri joining Mikey Whipwreck and the Sinister Minister? I'm really digging that team.

2) How in the world did Steve Corino become a babyface in ECW. Was it the Tommy Dreamer route of getting the poo poo kicked out of you until they love you for it?

Thread question: Do we treat these shows like spoilers in the TV Thread? It's aired already so no spoiler tags needed?

A lot of these shows are over 20 years old. I think you are fine to spoil as much as possible.

I always did like Mike Awesome as a wrestler. At least in ECW, he stood out as being slightly bigger than everyone else and unhinged enough to throw people around in horrible ways. Really not the kind of thing that would fly anywhere else besides ECW, but still.

I loved him in ECW because he was a 6'8 dude who was super fast and light on his feet.

They've censored Mae Youngs tits in the Royal Rumble 00. Did that happen in the live feed? It's basically a big red "censored" cross across the screen.

I was twelve at the time and remember watching it live and waking my parents up at 2am from shrieking when she done it, I can't remember a censor.

Also, Royal Rumble 2000 is probably my favourite rumble next to '92

They did that for the home video release.

Which part was the worst part of Beaver Cleavage? The original promos, the girlfriend beater part, or the fact that it was all revealed to be a worked shoot by his evil girlfriend?

I was watching the undertaker marries Steph raw and I swear I forgot all about Beaver Clevage until they showed the vignette. Was the evil gf thing when she put makeup on to make it look like he beat her? Because that was seriously terrible. Also what is up with vince and incest?

My favorite part of that Countdown was when they brought Terry Taylor in with his suit and tie and showed him the Red Rooster 8x10, and his response was a flat "I was at a very different place in my life there."

I think they'll wait just because there are so few episodes of it. I'd really really like to see the full episodes with the Tanaka/Awesome matches from December of 99, the latter of the two is one of the best matches I've ever seen live and I haven't seen the first since it aired.

There is a lot of good mikey whipwreck and tajiri stuff as well.

New Blood Rising, if you want the Russo era.

I watched this recently and that ladder match was the most russo thing I have ever seen. It's a ladder match where on one hook is a gold record the other is a recording contract. It somehow ends with tank Abbott walking around confused, rubbing his nipples and I think winning the match.

I was watching the ziggler/Ryder match from TLC 2010, and that was a fantastic match. Like both dudes just killed it the whole match, and now I'm sad that Ziggler is in the exact same spot as he was in 2010 and confused as why wwe wanted to bury Ryder so bad.

No it was for their current recording contract. The stakes don't really matter anyway because 3 Count leaves with both items despite only having retrieved one of them and it's never really explained what it takes to win the match, just that the match ends when both items have been retrieved.

Well actually tank Abbott walked away with both items and 3 count looked totally confused.

Pretty much every WWE PPV stage was good to loving amazing until they started cost cutting, whenever they started using white ring ropes exclusively. Summerslam and Wrestlemania are the only shows that get unique sets that aren't just the Raw set with a few things added, nowadays.

I was thinking about the white ropes the other day and how boring I find them. It's not like it's expensive to make the ropes different colors. It's literally just tape that the wrap around it. Why can't we have a little variety.

Are they releasing ECW Hardcore TV episodes at a consistent or predictable pace? I'm trying to rewatch the Monday Night Wars and they are only up to September 1995 for ECW right now.

For what ever reason they were releasing them at a consistent rate and then they stopped at the sept 95 episode. and it's been like a month since a new one has come up.
