      Nope. Probably took the week off to make room for all the 15-year Smackdown stuff they've been promoting. I'd imagine we'll get a new MNW episode next week.

        looks like they will start adding more old school raw episodes this week because there are three airing back to back

          Got an email stating they are going to add advertisments between shows, etc.

          I use Hulu so this isn't a big deal but what do you guys think about it?

            I'm fine with whatever they have to do to
            Keep the network going. I never want to have to pay $60 for a PPV again.

              EDIT - I'm sure it's just me, but I think we should have a thread like this, where all of us that watch the Network just, essentially, "live tweet" about whatever show it is we're watching at the time. Like, if I decide to watch...Backlash 1999, I have a post where I analyze/review/type random observations during the show. I think it could be interesting.

                I thought that's what this thread was for?

                  I am not a fan of this. I'd rather WWE just raise the cost in place of running ads. That's part of the appeal of the Network is you don't have to sit through all of that garbage.

                    I see this as no big deal, better to do that than to raise the price to 20 bucks. Hulu runs ads, so does Showtime and HBO on their network, albeit for their own shows.

                      ****ing trash decision, and the same reason I will never ever have a Hulu account.

                      I take that back. If it's just between shows like where they have the wrestlers say "You're watching the WWE Network" blah blah blah and on their live "station" I'm cool with it.

                      If we have ads interrupting PPVs, NXT events AND **** we stream? **** off, WWE.

                        Unfortunately I read that companies like Mattel and Pepsi already talked to them about running ads.

                          Yeah, like I said I'm cool if they put it on the station.

                          I don't wanna turn on WM21 and have to sit through ads while I watch it.

                            Tell that to all these people with the "I can watch all these shows on YouTube. I think the product sucks but I'll watch the pirated stream of the PPV every month!" mentality.

                            That being said, I haven't experienced any yet, so don't know if it hasn't rolled out or "limited ads" really means limited. Might as well just throw an ad during the ad breaks built into the old TV shows that are uploaded.

                            Edit: Advertising Age reports Pepsi, Mattel, and Kmart as initial commercial sponsors. Ads are 30-second spots between shows on the 24/7 stream, but none within programming itself. For on-demand programming, 15 or 30-second spots will air every fourth stream.

                              So they're showing Halloween Havoc 1989 in the middle of the damn night tonight.....I will be watching like a fool that I am. It's actually one of those cards that i've heard a lot about but never seen the full show. This is one time I'm glad I don't have a job LOL.
