  1. Yes, it's great. Pretty much faultless, and awesome for Saturday 3pm kickoffs. I got my sky down to £10 / month with basic channels so we can use to record etc, and we use iptv for sky sports, movies , 3pms and now they have some VOD too.

    Thank you, which service do you use and may I ask, what your Internet speeds are? As I am living in Hull, we still have the equivalent of Dial Up.

  2. I'm suprised they haven't done a collection this month for matches from the Royal Rumble. It seems a simple and obvious thing to do. I'm sure a lot of us are rewatching old Rumble shows/matches this month, time permitting.

    Recently announced, they are doing a "Subscribers Choice" Royal Rumble collection, it will feature the 10 best (voted for) Rumbles.

  3. The padlock and chain he has attached to his wallet did the damage I reckon.

    I reckon he must have received the said padlock and chain as a gift as there is no way he would have brought them.

    Marty Jannetty, Papa Shango and Typhoon, straight from a 1993 Raw episode.15492580_1231686116917137_65181233467294

    Considering the life he's lived (or even disregarding it) Marty Jannetty looks amazingly good for his age (he's 56 I believe).
    Agree Marty looks in good nick, all things considered. Must admit a couple of years ago, I fully expected to read about somone finding him dead after he seemed to have a bit of a meltdown not too mention him writing long, long confusing rants which went off in different tangents on Facebook.
  5. I remember him being big in WCW but he's really beefed up since then. Doesn't he blame weight gain due to leg injury?

    Think I read that somewhere as well.... Although I am guessing the "All You Can Eat" Breakfast Buffets, dont do him any favours either.

  6. It's a horrible reign and the Iraqi Sympathiser storyline is an utter disgrace, but, in the spirit of the thread I have to judge it purely on the action between the ropes - which, although generally shit, is not as shit as earlier matches.

    But yes, it wasn't a great watch knowing what is to follow.

    EDIT: The fucking Iron Man Match isn't far away.

    DOUBLE EDIT: Neither is This Tuesday In Texas.

    Yeah, good luck with the Iron Man match, I watched Wrestlemania XII earlier this week and that match certainly hasnt improved over time. I remeber being really excited during the build up to the match when I was watching it in 1996 thinking it would be an all time classic...... Got that one wrong!

     

    BTW - really enjoying this thread.

  7. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK, Bigelow's WCW debut

     

    This was soooooooooo well done. Feels like the first real program Goldberg has been involved in since he became champ, TBH. Shame he's not on the next PPV and he's got Nash at Starrcade though.

     

    I have uploaded his debut and the segments from Nitro 11/16/1998 here:

    To be honest, the Bigelow debut is one of the few things WCW didn't totally balls up that year.

    As someone who has not watched much of ECW (other than the stuff and clips that is repeated often) I was thinking of giving some of the TV shows a watch on the Network, therefore, what episode is the best to start from?

    Thanks in advance :)

     

     

    Try 72 (August 30 1994) which is when they rebrand as Extreme Championship Wrestling. If you decide to skip after that, 1995 is best for storylines and 1996 for in-ring, at least in the pre-PPV era.

    Thanks John, will give them a go from episode 72.

  10.  

    For now it seems their goal is to have every episode of Raw available on the Network.

     

     

     

    i wish they would start to upload more 80's and 90's stuff

    im starting to get fed up with them uploading raws or smackdown every month

    i think we need some 80s or 90s superstars or wrestling challenge or some old wcw wrestling worldwide

     

    They uploaded a random Prime Time Wrestling episode yesterday, a few were excited as we thought this may be the Classic Content drop for November, it turns out the Classic Content drop is Raw 2010/11.

    yeah i think they uploaded 20 raws from 2010 yesterday/today

    i just think its time to upload some older stuff

    but we cant complain to much im currently watching wcw nitro from 97 and loving it

    The way I am looking at it is the quicker they upload all the Raw's and Smackdown's they will then start to upload other content. Suprised thought they havent uploaded Thunder, given the Goldberg return.

  11. I'm a fan of Michael Shannon but that was terrible casting as Elvis. Not good looking enough and the accent was totally wrong. I thought Spacy did a good job as Nixon tho

    I know what you mean about Michael Shannon not being a typical Elvis as such but, the longer the film went on the more I thought he was good in the role. Similar to the casting of John Cusack in Love & Mercy (which is a fantastic film by the way).

  13. For anyone interested Smyths toy stores has some Defining Moments figures on sale for £14.99. In my local store were figures of John Cena, Undertaker and Hulk Hogan.
