Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread

I watched the first Nitro. I'm going to go through them all I think. Kinda pumped. I was always a WWF guy. But I'd tape Nitro or watch the replay at 1 am and still get up and go to school. Lol

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread

Anybody watching Nitro? Pastamania was 10x greater than anything RAW has put out in the last 2 weeks (at least).

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread

I watched the first 2 episodes of Nitro and the only good things so far were Liger vs Pillman, Luger surprise, Bobby and Mongo verbal spars and Sabu. Everything else is complete crap.

Also lol at Bischoff taking shots at Nash.

That Sabu match on the second Nitro was a very good match...Alex Wright was a good wrestler but the gimmick sucked.

I'm on episode 4 and I'm loving it way more than current WWE. Brian Pillman and Arn Anderson are cutting a promo and Brian Pillman is wearing a blue denim shirt with blue jeans and a fanny pack. #90sfashion

You actually enjoy the Dungeon of Doom vs Hulk Hogan?

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread

I think the only reason to re watch the old Nitros are for the Crusierweight division matches.

It's tolerable so far. I'm more interested in the cruiserweight matches which are awesome. Malenko vs Guerrero was awesome although they cut away in the middle to hulk hogan arriving in the building. Flair/Arn Anderson feud and Savage/Luger mini feud is all much better than anything on wwe right now. Especially John Cena burying every heel.

I'd either start from the beginning or start from the Scott Hall debut episode which was in May 1996. Scott Hall's debut is the first Nitro I ever remember watching so I can't comment on anything beforehand except for the first 5 episodes of Nitro which I have watched so far and they are pretty good. They're only an hour long so you don't really get bored like you do with RAW.

After the second episode.

Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread

Also as you guys watch these Nitro episodes you will realize how similar Bischoff and Cole are. As we all know, WWE emphasizes the Network and the $9.99 price tag over and over. Well through these first 5 episodes you'll hear Bischoff say over and over again how WCW is LIVE and it's the only LIVE wrestling program, how much RAW sucks, etc. He even buried Kevin Nash as being the WWF champion who couldn't get past the midcard in WCW, which becomes extremely ironic later on for obvious reasons..

One thing I really dislike about Bischoff's commentary is his tone at times. The way he talks leads me to believe they're about to cut to a commercial break at any given moment. If you've seen it you probably know what I mean.
