Paid Members JNLister Posted March 14, 2014 Paid Members Posted March 14, 2014 Bad news: a few WWE PPVs (eg WrestleMania 19) have disappeared. As always, it appears to be a temporary glitch rather than an intentional takedown. Good news: The official help site for the network lists the following as "coming soon in 2014" WWE Tribute to the Troops 2014 The Monday Night War Clash of the Champions WWE Total Divas Saturday Morning Slam WWE Rivalries Rock n' Wrestling (tentative) Saturday Night's Main Event WCW Nitro Vault Specials Not sure what the last means. I'd guess/hope some one-off shows from the territory days such as WCCW Star Wars events. Also, FWIW, PWInsider reckons the Clashes and SNME will go up very quickly once the free trials are withdrawn. No official word on that happening, though at the very least you'd assume the free trial will be on hold during WrestleMania week.
Shane O' Mac Version 2 Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Dammit, still hoping Tough Enough gets on there, especially the 2011 edition.
Paid Members JNLister Posted March 14, 2014 Paid Members Posted March 14, 2014 The missing PPVs are now back up, minus Hogan's Voodoo Child music. Yeah, you probably want to make sure you've got permission to use that one.
KingOfMetal Posted March 14, 2014 Posted March 14, 2014 Some new episodes of ECW have been added to the vault. There's a Mike Awesome/Sabu match from 94 that I never knew happened. Going to check it out tonight
The Gaffer Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 I've been mostly just watching the live channel because I get that Netflix indecisiveness trying to pick something and I rather like the idea of having a live TV channel running - even in the background - rather than a stockpile of digital content. It didn't take long for the living room to become a weird mosaic of pizza boxes. My housemates hate me. They'd never seen Tank Abbott before.
The Dart Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 What would people recommend for WCW PPVs that were so bad they were good?
EdgarTheSlouch Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 What would people recommend for WCW PPVs that were so bad they were good? Uncensored 95. Probably the furthest you could get from uncensored possible...
KingOfMetal Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 The next Beyond The Ring special on the WWE Network will debut this coming Saturday night and will be the documentary portion of WWE's "For All Mankind: The Life and Career of Mick Foley" DVD.
Paid Members JNLister Posted March 17, 2014 Paid Members Posted March 17, 2014 Free trial ends on Saturday reportedly. I assume that means you have to sign up for the trial before Saturday and then you get the one week.
The Dart Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 Slam City on the Network is also on Sky Sports tonight, in the event anyone who would want to watch it doesn't have the Network.
KingOfMetal Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 What's Slam City? Marv avenging the death of Goldust?
CavemanLynn Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 It's a stop motion animation show. Kinda like a PG Celebrity Death match featuring WWE guys having "real jobs" because an evil masked villain called The Finisher fires them all, but ending up twatting each other in slapstick fights. The link above is Santino vs Kane. It looks like it could become the greatest thing ever, and I'll definitely be getting any tie-in video games!
KingOfMetal Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Legends House to debut on the network on April 17th. The Vault now has an ECW PPVs section and a WCW PPVs section, in which the events are in descending chronological order and you can select to just bring up the events for a particular year. There are still the ECW and WCW sections in the PPVs area but these are still listed under the relevant PPV name
andrew "the ref" coyne Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 Oh god bless people with way too much free time. Maybe redundant considering KingOfMetal's post, but someone has gone through the WCW ppv in chronological order page on Wikipedia and put links direct to the WWE Network show it correlates too. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WCW_pay-per-view_events Will make it easier for me to work through the PPVs.

Probably WWE themselves.
