I saw that happen with one or two that are now working. Try reporting it to the Network twitter account.

This was the first thing I watched on the WWE Network. I wish I knew why. Sylvester Terkay was cooler than I remember him being.

So that's 4 people that I know of on 6SW that have purchased the Network. :)

Looking over the WCW PPVs, I wish they had included the Clash of the Champions shows. I believe they were all TV episodes and not technically PPVs, but I'd love to watch some of those. I just watched the Vader/Cactus Jack Texas Death Match at Halloween Havoc 1993. I believe they had a more brutal match at Clash of the Champions earlier in the year, unless I am mistaken. I'd love to see that first match on the WWE Network.

I won a copy of December To Dismember from a radio face off once. What a terrible PPV but it's definitely an interesting watch.

- Elimination Chamber will debut on the WWE Network on March 24th due to a contractual obligation with pay-per-view replays. Going forward, all WWE pay-per-views will be available on demand the very next day after they air. The 2014 Royal Rumble was just added yesterday. These two shows were part of previous agreements with pay-per-view providers that did not give WWE the right to put the shows up or release them elsewhere for 30 days.

- - WWE Network will be adding a lot more content once the one-week free trial is over on Monday. The idea is that they wanted the free trial users to sample enough to get them to pay but not give them everything at once.

There are also plans to add every episode of Saturday Night's Main Event and the WCW Clash of Champions after the free trial expires.

Considering WWE loves to brag about their numbers, I'm surprised they didn't went for a worldwide release for the Network. But then again, most of the buyrates come through the States, so I can see how they went USA-only to prevent risks. Still...

That makes sense. I figured there would be some kind of sample set up for the free trial, but hadn't noticed any kind of limits. If they plan on adding even more content than what we currently have, then this WWE Network is a steal! This might just be the greatest thing WWE has ever done.

But I wonder when the new additions will go up. I mean, I just looked at the site and they are still offering a free week. So is every one going to have to wait until the trial is over, or do we somehow get more content when our own free trial is over? Because I kind of wondered that when I was registering.

I will definitely be watching some of the Clash of the Champions, obviously. :lol:

The 2011 Royal Rumble is finally working. Glad to see WWE got that kink out of the system. I don't think there are too many kinks in this launch. Considering this is WWE's first venture into this streaming area, it is going rather smoothly, I think. Sure, there have been a few glitches, but WWE is handling them quickly. I am confident WM will stream flawlessly.

So I watched the 2011 Royal Rumble. And I am only talking about the Rumble match itself. I remember reading how Diesel had the biggest pop of the night. After seeing the match, I can certainly see why. He is a returning surprise, which was pop wrothy in itself. But the fact that the Rumble up to that point had been rather unexciting also helped. It was basically Punk and Nexus clearing the ring as each guy came in. Then it was Cena clearing the ring as people came in. And it was Hornswoggle being buddy-buddy with Cena and doing his signature moves.

Just saw something really strange on the WWE Network. I was watching Cody Rhodes reveal the white strap IC Title at HIAC 2011 and for some reason there was random skips. The skips weren't much, maybe a second or two. But it was definitely noticeable. For instance, Cody was unzipping the velvet bag and then suddenly he's holding the title up in the air. It skipped over him pulling it out of the bag. And then Johnny L announced he would defend the IC Title against John Morrison. We see John Morrison walk onto the stage, and then he's suddenly on the turnbuckle doing his pose. They skipped over him walking down the isle. I'm not really sure why it's like that. Somebody check it out and see if it's just on my end...although, I don't see how it could be.

Well that's simultaneously both disappointing and reassuring. It's reassuring that WWE doesn't have that glitch. It's disappointing that I do. But I wouldn't even know how to even begin to address it. I guess I'll just hope it doesn't happen again.

WWE is advertising a live airing of the WWE Main Event television show for Tuesday night at 6:00 p.m. CT. The caption on the network's schedule page for "WWE Main Event Live" reads "WWE Main Event features incredible in-ring action from the WWE Superstars and Divas of Monday Night Raw and Friday Night Smackdown."

You gotta bet that WWE wants to try airing as much live content as they can before WrestleMania. It is much better for the Network (which is fucking awesome, by the way!) to have a flawless WrestleMania showing than it is to have WrestleMania be the first live airing on the Network. NXT Arrival, Main Event, and whatever other live testings they can do is good for the better good of the Network. :)

Question: Is it true that Booker T calling Hogan a nigga on WCW Spring Stampede 1997 isn't censored on the WWE Network?

I just watched and it is is unedited. Strangely, the clip that Overlord posted above is mirrored. On my screen, as I am watching it on the Network, Booker is standing on the far right. In the clip overlord posted, he is standing on the far left. Must be something that happened when they uploaded it?

That is a tactic some posters use to avoid copyright laws.

Flip the clip and you're home free. Sometimes, that is not always the case.

I need a little help, guys. I bought an HDMI cable to connect my phone to my TV so I could watch WWE Network on my TV. I can watch the WWE Network just fine on my phone. But as soon as I hook my HDMI cable to my phone, the WWE Network stops working. I've checked and everything else on my phone works through the HDMI cable. It's just that the WWE Network won't, which I find strange. Does anyone know if there are special settings I need to adjust to get this to work?

I don't know what to tell you, but I could ask if you have a PS3 or XBox 360? If you do, just hook up the HDMI cable to that and your TV and you are set!

No, I don't have either Microsoft or Sony consoles. I only have Nintendo Wii U and 3DS and the WWE Network isn't available on either. This is why I bought an HDMI cable for my phone.

Getting back to edited material on the WWE Network. I just watched the 1998 Survivor Series. They blurred out every time Shane McMahon flipped the bird. They blurred it when he flipped Austin off in the ring and later in backstage segments. I don't remember if this was originally blurred during original airing.

No it wasn't. You can see it unedited on Dailymotion.

WWE issued a statement to the Motley Fool website in which the company expressed confidence in the WWE Network's ability to stream WrestleMania 30. "Notwithstanding the overwhelmingly positive response to WWE Network, we want to ensure subscribers have the highest-quality experience watching WrestleMania 30 and all our programming, and thus have put in place significant quality assurances," WWE stated.

"These steps include increased capacity to handle high volumes of transactions, logins, and concurrent live streams, daily 'stress' testing of all systems over an extended period, and the addition of technology experts to review our plan and procedures. We're confident that we'll be ready on Sunday, April 6." Read the full story at Fool.com/investing/general/2014/03/15/will-the-wwe-network-be-ready-for-wrestlemania.aspx


The "overwhelmingly positive response to the WWE Network" line has me interested. WWE is usually very quick to brag about their numbers. They brag about TV ratings, twitter followers, facebook followers, etc. But I haven't seen them give any numbers for how many subscribers they've gotten so far. I'll be very curious to see what numbers they release during the next quarterly investor's meeting. The WWE Network is a great service. I hope it is successful and lasts.

Also, I requested WrestleMania Sunday off from work way back in January. The schedule hasn't been created for that week yet, so I don't know if my request is approved. But at this point, I don't think I even care whether I get the Sunday off or not. If PPVs will go up immediately after the conclude, then I can just as easily watch WM when I get home that Monday morning and not have missed out on anything. I originally requested the day off because..well, the streaming sites I used to visit only did the live airings without replays.

In conclusion, the WWE Network is fantastic. Every USA forum member should subscribe if you haven't already. :)

I was looking through WCW footage, reliving mostly the nWo era. I wanted to see the match where Mr. Perfect turned on Flair and slammed a cage door on Flair's head. I remember a still image from Nitro of Flair laying with one of those nose cones in his nose. According to Wikipedia, this happened at Fall Brawl 1997. But I don't see Fall Brawl 97 on the WWE Network.

Once they get enough subscribers, I can honestly see WWE doing a "Basic" "Pro" "Premium" package deals in the future.
