How much Mid-South/UWF is on the network and is it in order

Thanks 

1981 - 4 episodes, 1982- 48 episodes, 1983- 7 episodes, 1984- 3 episodes, 1985- 2 episodes, 1986- 2 episodes

so obviously the years are nowhere near complete, it seems to be more a case of them featuring someone/something of significance. 

In other news, they've moved the Hidden Gems from Collections to The Vault and that's got some new additions. They've also added most of the rest of WWECW too. Just a couple of episodes missing from that, but I'm sure they'll be there soon for anyone that's interested

Nothing new in Hidden gems yet.  It's coming Monday.

 

And WWE ECW is already complete.

IIRC, Mid-South was added in two batches: one that was just a few random ones (when they did it for several territories) featuring known WWF guys, and then a second bulk one that had most of 1982.

Hidden Gems getting its own section in the vault is a big relief as it means they likely won't delete it by accident.

Coming this Monday:

The Youth of a Nation – 3/6/1984

In this rarely seen moment, two youngsters take to the ring to show the WWE Universe the moves they learned from Coach Bob Backlund.

A Diaper for Cornette – 4/7/1984

Stagger Lee and Cowboy Bill Watts look to give Jim Cornette exactly what he deserves when they take on The Midnight Express.

Blood and Guts – 5/30/1986

Despite suffering a devastating injury at the hands of One Man Gang, Hacksaw Jim Duggan challenges Terry Gordy for the UWF Championship.

Cowboy Justice – 6/24/1986

To earn a shot at administering some justice to “Hot Stuff” Eddie Gilbert, Cowboy Bill Watts must first defeat Sting in singles action.

A Texas-Sized Confrontation – 7/20/1987

Bruiser Brody brings his brand of insanity to a confrontation with Abdullah the Butcher deep in the heart of Texas.

The Best of Both Worlds – 2/23/1989

Two of the most legendary tag team duos of all time meet in a rarely seen battle between The British Bulldogs and The Rock ‘n’ Roll Express.

Controversy in a Cage – 5/13/1989

Controversy reigns supreme when Dusty Rhodes defends the PWF Heavyweight Championship against The Big Steel Man inside a steel cage.

Of Monsters and Icons – 3/6/1993

Long before terrorizing the WWE locker room as Kane, Bruiser Mastino would test his in-ring skills in a battle with Sting

The Bad Guy in ECW – 11/11/2000

Scott Hall takes things to the extreme by traveling to ECW to go one-on-one with Justin Credible in this rarely seen match.

The Destroyer and a Fallen Angel –

Samoa Joe looks to start down an unparalleled road of success by challenging Christopher Daniels for the UPW Heavyweight Championship.

A Battle from Down Under – 8/10/2002

The Rock defends the Undisputed WWE Championship against Triple H and Brock Lesnar in a Triple Threat Match from WWE’s Global Warning Tour.

Helllooo Punk! – 5/9/2005

On the Fringe – 1/15/2006

With Dean Ambrose’s days as part of The Shield still years away, Jon Moxley partners with Brad Taylor to take on MNM.

Who is Better? – 12/7/2011

Cesaro’s quest to be the best Superstar in NXT leads him to challenge Seth Rollins to singles action in this forgotten battle.

The Young and the Hungry – 5/23/2013

In this unaired segment, Enzo Amore & Big Cass’ hilarious rhetoric turns them into an appetizer for Ryback.

The 1989 stuff from PWF (a Florida revival territory) is a minor surprise as I didn't know they had it. The Bulldogs-R'n'Rs match is from a multipromotional show and it appears this might be a clipped version from AWA TV.

Interesting to see them put up a Christopher Daniels and specify The Fallen Angel, although I'm probably reading too much into that. Daniels has always been my boy and I'd love for him to have a run in NXT (too old/unknown for main roster), but I doubt it would happen as I think he still lives in California. I don't know if he still works on the Waterworld show at Universal or not

It's a good survey, some interesting ideas in there. Worth doing if you've been sent the email.

I'd consider paying a little more than I already do if they were to start showing more current wrestling, whether that be new divisions or tournaments under WWE's name, or footage from outside promotions. I can only imagine that they would get an overwhelmingly positive response to those kind of suggestions. Alternative commentary options and Download To Go are other things I'd be happy to see introduced.

I was just about to post this. Ive not being paying since maina.

 

Maybe they will listen and do some of the things they are asking  im surprised they even needed to ask about download on the go u thought that was a given. That said didnt they do this before and nothing came of it? 

 

WWE game of thrones style tv show........i can only imagine how bad that would be. 

 

Could we just have 2 hours of kevin nash dressed as the hound beheading mid carders?
