Seeing as event was 2 hours, Lesnar match should've ended hour 1, and then Owens-Balor main evented the event. But WWE can't have NXT showoff everyone else so they put some random throwaway Cena tag match in main event...
    You do know this was a house show, right?

      That special with Hayes, Dillon, Arn and Flair talking up Dusty Rhodes was seriously some of the best stuff i've seen put out by WWE with the older guys just kickin' back and telling old stories. Flair was right at the end though, Dusty would've wanted them drinking and having a good time that way.

        Like hell it was. It was specifically planned this way to bury the NXT title match. We all know it.

          The Dusty Stories special is one of the best things they've done on the network, anyone who is a fan of the Legends of Wrestling roundtable I highly suggest you watch this.

            The best Tough Enough was the first one. And there was hardly any drama. Chris Nowinkski pissed most people off, but at the end of the day everyone was cool with each other.

            The show focused on them learning wrestling. Not drama. You saw back bumps, front bumps, running the ropes, the moonsault.

            Watch the other seasons and see how far they drift from season one.

              They seriously need to bring back the Legends of Wrestling roundtables and have J.R. host it. These great stories need to be documented!

                Episode 2 of swerved.....

                Kofi stuff was funny,but even that one,they should've done it better. The security guy saying "I've never seen you before on tv" to barrett/rollins was stupid. Should've made it where ppl just required id or something,and kofi conveniently had his but other guy didnt. Or say the "I've never seen you on tv before" line to hornswoggle,ryder,phillips or something, cause then itd make more sense.

                The old lady one was funny too,but they never told the superstars it was a prank? So until this aired,they prob thought it was a real incident. Los matadores one went too long though lol,having to actually sign her.....

                The santino one, funniest one was when he was like "im gonna get fired over this. I have 2 strikes already and mr.mcmahon doesnt like me to begin with." Surprised they had him say that.

                  Where the hell are the RAW and Nitro replays? Seriously -- they haven't updated Nitro in how long and have given us almost zero WCW content? I don't understand what's holding them back from providing subscribers with older content.

                    They'll probably do a special week for it, upload a few episodes and then not upload new episodes for 6 months just like they did with ECW.

                      Apparently there's something like 10,000 hours of content that's supposed to be put up over the next fiscal year. Granted, most of that is going to be current content and original shows but you have to think there will be some retro content uploaded.

                      I wouldn't hold my breath on WCW stuff being uploaded anytime soon. Vince will never give them a bone even after all these years. It'll probably be YEARS before we get any kind of weekly TV prior to Nitro.

                        That's actually just one Triple H promo from 2002.

                              Does anyone else have trouble viewing older WCW events? More often than not, when I turn on an older PPV or Clash, whatever I'm watching ends up constantly pausing. It's not my internet connection because if I switch over to a WWE event, it will play fine.


                              If you want to see the what I consider the worst match I've ever seen, check out Van Hammer vs Doug Somers at Halloween Havoc 1991. Somers nearly gets hit neck broken with a slingshot suplex and then it looked like they botched the three count to end the match

                                I get this issue from time to time while watching Prime Time Wrestling. I've seen it mentioned on Reddit that the older material seems to be the most suspect at having these issues. I try to watch the network on non-peak hours. It usually ends up working better more or less. I've only had one experience where it was so bad that I had to turn it off but more often than not it'll work itself out and play smoothly after a few minutes.
