    Yeah they've got pretty much all the weekly NWA stuff up from 86-June of 1989, which is awesome btw and keeping me occupied, but they've completely ignored the WWF in that period except for a handful of episodes of primetime

      Funny you mention that. NWA/WCW weekly shows progressed storylines more than WWF shows when it came to matches unless it was SNME and very few on Primetime Wrestling. That might be why. WWF, at the time, 95% relied on squash matches, interview segments, and promos.

        WWF did a great job of building its wrestlers/characters up during this time period. The reason so many got over is because you saw them dominate in the ring against jobbers, and then the consistent interview time allowed the personalities to shine.

            I think that's why I've become such a big Strowman fan, the way they've limited his exposure keeps me way more interested in him than what they're doing with guys like Rollins or Owens. I'm not saying he's as good a performer, but his character is way more intriguing to me. Granted they have three hours to fill every Monday so they can't use everyone like they do Strowman.

              I'm confused by what you mean. I've binge watched NXT from 2014 just to see how things were and compared it to now. You have to search for it by year, and pull up 2014. I've watched the first takeover on the Network(featuring the ladder match between Nevelle and Bo), Cesaro vs Zayn, and the rest of NXT in 2014.

              All of NXT from 2014 is on there.

                No it's not...NXT in 2014 starts in the first week of February on the Network. The current format started in May, 2012. So they are missing just under 2 years of that content. Plus there were also 5 seasons worth of content from when NXT was a competition show where FCW (what NXT is today) competitors battled it out for a main roster spot. Think Tough Enough but with people already in the company and a main roster spot instead of a contract if you win. And that show first aired February 23, 2010 featuring the entire Original Nexus stable. That's not on the Network either.

                  I feel like I have watched it all on the network before...but that may have been on Hulu.

                    I think it was Hulu. Because I think when NXT first started, as someone mentioned when I brought this subject up earlier, it was aired exclusively on Hulu. Because it's not on the Network. The first episode on the Network for NXT is Feb. 6, 2014.

                              I didn't know they don't have full episodes of shows on right after the air. I went to watch smackdown on the network last night and nada. For some reason I thought you could watch them live from the Network as well as watch a replay whenever you wanted.

                                Yeah, I can't remember how long they have to wait. 30 days maybe?
