    Re: WWE Network Discussion Thread

    I just finished WCW Nitro up until the Giant's turn to NWO. Im doing PPV's with them. This is bringing back good times and I stepped away from WCW in late 1996 until 1998 so I missed alot. Is the War Games with the NWO vs Horseman in the PPV area?
    atleast..Its not Delaware

      If you go back and watch alot of the old nitros you see it was way too much talking and not enough wrestling. Anytime there was a main event it usually ended with the NWO running in. The thing that did it for me was taking the title off of Goldberg with that stupid stun gun. Goldberg was pretty much as hot as Stone Cold around that time and they give it to Kevin Nash only for him to lay down for Hogan after a fingerpoke. Like others said WCW had potential stars but didn't know what to do with them. Hogan, Hall, and Nash had contracts to where no matter what they were the highest paid wrestlers so when they signed Bret Hart all three of them got a raise.

          I'm really disappointed with this Monday Night War series now. The Mick Foley episode spends about 50 minutes doing a retrospective of his career and about 10 minutes on his WWE title win and the Rock n Sock Connection episode. They went over how WCW spoiled the results for about 2 minutes. They didn't show anything about Monday Nitro at all and didn't even mention the finger poke of doom which occurred on the same night that Foley won the title.

          The pilot episode was good because it was going back and forth between the two companies. Now it's just all about WWE guys. I would hope they have some episodes on WCW guys like Sting/Hogan feud or Goldberg but with WWE and their revisionist history, nothing is a sure thing.

            Cesaro just made an El Dandy reference on Main Event.

                  who are we to doubt El Dandy, Konnor and Viktor on main event, i'm calling Charlotte for a match on Smackdown, oddly enough the longest match Konnor and Viktor have had

                  correct me if i'm wrong but i think this is the first time WWE has acknowledged their developmental let alone who the champs are

                    They acknowledge NXT all the time. Hell, when the shield debuted, Cole exclaimed "that's Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, and Roman Reigns! They're from NXT!"

                      I've come to the conclusion that WWE Network stopped uploading RAW episodes because they don't want to lose the ratings battle to WCW Monday Nitro on their own network.

                          It's annoying, I just finished up the last Raw today. It's like damn, at least go up to Summerslam of 95 so I can get to that PPV, stop and start on something else. I mean damn, I was even ready to watch the King vs Shawn Michaels on the next Raw but it ain't there. Then Smackdown I don't know what they're doing over there. It's like episodes 1, then 2, 3, 4 then 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 16. Like...why the **** are we skipping episodes here? Just upload the stuff and be done with it man.

                            Ok this sucks, was just watching the Network for the last couple hours and it just stopped working. Well time to renew...so I renew and it's still not working. Look into my account and it says my subcription is from 9/12/14 till March 2015.

                            Called to see what was going on and they said I have to wait till tomorrow before it will start working again so I'm going to miss NXT Takeover tonight. Was all set to watch it and skip football cause I'm so tired of hearing about Rice, Goodell and the NFL.

                              That doesn't sound right. Should be able to watch once you renew.

                                Yeah that was my thought also but it's not allowing me to do anything on the Network. I log in and I can see my name up in the upper left corner of the WWE website.

                                I go to the Network site and I see Renew subscription, Log In or get Started. Try log-in and it just brings me back to the same page. Click renew and it takes me to my account telling my I have renewed and my subscription is from 9/12/12 till March 2015. Tried get started and went through putting in my info and clicked the button and it said something to the effect that I have purchased it already basically.
