Well I watched a Whole Old Raw and had no problems with it what's so ever. I think I need to test a PPV and see how that goes.

MSG Network used to show old MSG shows during the summer for 2 years. Man, I missed those. Taped the **** out of them.

WWE said the issues with PPV's will take a couple of days. Just read a new report on NODQ.
 
So then show episodes are working as good as live streams but ppvs still need some work!?

Still a great start if they are working on them
 
I was able to get SummerSlam 2013 and Guilty As Charged 2001 (I think it was 2001) to work just fine, as does the scheduled stream. I couldn't get Piper vs Flair from MSG 1992 to work, though. That pissed me off. There was a video error, supposedly. I really wanted to watch that match.
 
The old raw streams are running much smoother. I haven't even had a chance to check out a ppv though
 
I hope they show house shows and over seas tours,They have pre&post shows and lots of footage of other behind the scenes stuff so might as well show live events too.
 
Yeah but they don't have Commantators at house shows so I doubt they will show them. You never know though. I hope they put old WWF shows on there like Superstars and Livewire and Sunday Night Heat. Still waiting for them to put Nitros and Thunders on there but it just started so eventually they will add more content. There's enough right now as long as everything works.
 
I got the WWE Network trial and was hoping to watch Raw on it but it and Smackdown dont have live airings? Man thats weak
 
They don't have Live Airings because they are on Network TV. They won't be able to put it on there till 30 days after it showed. If they lost USA and only showed Raw and SD on the Network it would've shown up right away but WWE isn't wanting to lose USA network.

They probably have a deal with other networks not to show them live,They will have replays but I read those will take 30 days to update
 
Watched an episode of old ECW with Snuka and Funk in a cage as the main event in addition of the first Tazmaniac/Sabu match. Had no problems with it. So far the only VOD content I've been able to watch in its entirety with no issues.

I tried watching the first episode of Smackdown after and it crashed. Not even a loading screen, just went from the content advisory to black. Second time it's happened so far.

No issues with the live stream.
 
so is content on the WWE network just streaming or can you download it?

Doesn't their contract for Smackdown and Main Event end soon?,There were reports a few months ago of WWE maybe looking for new homes for those shows,Maybe they can just keep Raw on USA and put Smackdown and Main Event on the network.

They can have Smackdown live on the network like NXT
 
What is the point of Orton carrying two titles anymore?
 
I doubt they will move away from TV deals, since they not only generate revenue in and of themselves, but also generate new fans/reach casual fans who will not buy the network.

For example, I am not getting the network just yet (probably going to wait a few months), so Raw (an occasionally SD) on TV are all I have, and them movin completely away from TV would probably piss me off more than it would entice me to buy the network.
 
I marked,Him coming out to his true theme song/Red&Yellow gear/Standing inside a WWE ring/Cutting an old school promo..Was just great.

It was simple and to the point with just one appearance on the show

Yeah true,I was just saying,I don't mind watching the pre/posts shows on the network then going to Dish cable to watch the episodes
 
- There has been lots of talk within WWE about Rey Mysterio's future with the company over the last 48 hours. Rey's deal expires in 3 months and with there no longer being a top spot for him, the belief among some is that he is preparing to finish up his last run and be finished.

Those same people that speculate he's leaving soon believe that he could end up on the new AAA TV show that debuts on the El Rey Network this fall. Rey could end up being a major player on that show when it launches. Konnan, who remains close with Rey, will play a big part of the new AAA TV show. That show is scheduled to start taping in Los Angeles this August.

Well, the exclusive negotiating window for NBC to sign a new TV contract with WWE has ended.
