Kropotkin's Beard Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Your first live match on the WWE Network is... Kingston/Sandow. Fuck me. The first live match on the UFC Fight pass was Russell Doane vs Leandro Issa. I'm not even sure what the WWE equivalent of that would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fallacy! Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Booker and Flair are awful on this pre-show, but it's pretty much what I expected. Alex Riley looks like a guy who knows he has no future in the company as a wrestler and is busting his ass to make it as some sort of talking head. He's not saying anything of substance though.

Niners Fan in CT Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 This is kind of like when I was a kid and we first got cable and I would watch any junk at all with fascination because it was coming from this strange new technology. So, yeah, I'm watching a Kofi Kingston match now. Yea as soon as I saw that mini-Goldust feature, I'm thinking to myself I'm gonna have this on in the background all the fucking time. Goodbye rest of my life. People weren't kidding. I really don't need to watch another channel now. It's like down to this and NFL Network lol The preshow looks incredible.

Just Dave Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Booker T's not bad. He's having to pick up Flair's slack. He's not any worse than Shannon Sharpe on CBS. I really like this presentation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ligerbusa Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Ric Flair has the same hair as King Muscle from Kinnikuman. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobra Commander Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 you know Larry would try to worm his way into doing the commentary for the first hour of Raw and we'd get Lawler in the 2nd/3rd hours instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianS81177 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Ric Flair looks like the monster things from Nothing But Trouble Funniest thing I have read or heard in at least 2 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Dave Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Damn. I know at some point I'd get tired of "the game of human chess" being "the single most important game in the history of our great sport," but it'd be fun for a few weeks...

Rehabilitated Rick Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Flair hasn't quite hit the typsy stage yet, the post-show should be a blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fallacy! Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Flair hasn't quite hit the typsy stage yet, the post-show should be a blast. I was half-expecting him to be plastered on this pre-show and spoil Undertaker returning or something. "I saw 'Taker backstage brother and he's looking great. He's a hell of a guy." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Since someone said that you can just lie about where you live and still get signed up I decided to give it ago. Can get logged in but regardless of what browser I use I just get a "Media Error: Video Not Available" message. Can't even watch Vince welcoming me to the Network. Will give it a try on Xbox 360 & PS3 later on though, as I think I've seen others having problems from PC. Use a VPN service. I'm deciding which one to go with for the next six months. Anyway, for those outside of the United States, here's a guide: www.thewrestlingmania.com/articles/columns/access-wwe-network-outside-usa/ I believe with most of those services, you can change your game machine's DNS settings and use it on that too.

Cobra Commander Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 they should find a way to reair all the internet-exclusive shows (Heat from 2005 to 2008, Velocity from 2005 to 2006, Superstars) and just insert new "other stuff going on" commentary seemlessly into the audiotracks from week to week. You're watching Crime Tyme v. Cade/Murdoch from 2007 and hearing commentary about Batista/Orton at WM30! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirFozzie Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I just watched a Von Erichs/Freebirds tornado tag match. Amazing how much heat that feud had, even in matches that went to a screwy DQ finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vgmastr Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 There's a lot more content there if you use the search function. Just typing in "Old School 1991" gets me four different MSG cards from that year. A few more episodes of Legends of Wrestling there too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
