Hopefully, they'll have a smoother launch than WWE did. New Japan Pro Wrestling will also be available on USA TV sometime in the near future. I saw a news report about it, but no one ever posted about it and I forgot. Also, off topic, but I can't stop myself from thinking how awesome it would have been if we had the Network during the Attitude Era. Could you imagine how many subscribers there would be and how much content we'd have if both WCW and WWE were trying to out do each others respective Networks? And maybe ECW would have had a better chance of survival if people had access to it via online streaming. Oh well. |

New Japan is going to be airing featured matches/shows from 2013 on AXS TV (formerly HDNet) on Friday nights starting in January. I don't see it making a significant difference for their business but it's a cheap option that shouldn't need many viewers to be successful. NJPW World is really cool. I gave them my 999 yen without hesitation. There isn't a US version of the site up at least yet but it's really simple to translate the page in Chrome. They take American credit cards so you can sign up without using any kind of proxy. Major events will air live on NJPW World similar to the WWE Network but there isn't a constant live streaming channel. The archive is fairly extensive but spotty in places too. It seems to work flawlessly on the technical side. It is a lot easier to navigate than the WWE Network even with spotty translations. Hopefully there is some app support for it soon so that it's possible to view on television. |

If I would've had access to the WWE Network and any alternatives like this New Japan World back in 2000-2002, I would've done literally nothing I didn't have to other than watch wrestling. I used to watch literally anything I could back then. I refused to miss an episode of WWF Jakked even, for fucks sake. Unfortunately that was still during the dying days of tape trading and before the internet was a viable option. But man... if I had access to all of that then I might have been more driven to get into wrestling in some form, rather than flirting with a few options and then ultimately resuming my utterly mediocre life.
