I think it will drop off huge. They really over promised and under delivered on content. It's great if you love their current product and want to see the ppvs though.
Watch this new people...
What is that? New tough enough type thing?
It's their JV facility in Florida, and it's looking like a strong indicator of the general vibe that HHH wants to go in for the product. They're doing specials 4x a year and a weekly TV show.
It's the best thing they're putting out and is the #1 reason to sub, imo.

NXT is WWE's "farm league" type thing. Up and coming talents get their shit together down there.
It's Triple H's baby, Vince has no input, and it feels like a rival promotion and it's goddamn great. Some of the best characters.
Arrival and Takeover have been their "ppv" events. Really good stuff, young people busting their asses. REALLY good. I highly recommend them.
a few weeks before that subscription period is up is probably when they start adding old Nitros. They have been adding old Raws (they are up to February 95), so if they slightly increase the pace, they should be at Nitro by that time. They aren't stupid- they know there is only a finite amount of content that will bring lapsed fans in, so they are going to be careful distributing it, so they get the most subscribers.

It is a PPV type event for what is basically WWEs feeder roster. It has lots of great up and coming wrestlers (most with multiple years of experience in the indies). The first match on the PPV is easily one of the best match the company as a whole has put out in 2014.

Some of them. Wrath had an awesome look. His Adam Bomb matches are on some Raws I believe, but Wrath did a lot of WCW PPV work so get to it!
Right now, the only WCW content they have up is every PPV the company did (apart from WCW/AAA When Worlds Colide from 1994, and the 1999 New Years Eve Kiss concert PPV), and every Clash of the Champions. There is no Nitro (that will be coming later this year), no Thunder, and no Saturday night yet.
Nitro will start getting uploaded soonish, I expect within a month. Definitely before the first six month period is up by the end of August.
What they did first is upload several Raw's a week, because Raw started airing before Nitro, they are now nearly at the point where Nitro started airing with Raw and will start airing the Monday Night War program. So I expect Nitro will go up along with Raw weekly soon.I'm expecting they will also add ECW Hardcore TV along with those Nitro's, but that was never announced.

Finally! I'm still waiting until it officially launches in the UK to subscribe but I might as well give it a go now.
NXT is great. Everyone should watch NXT.

Watch it for all your Daniel Bryan needs.

Start with Ultimate Warrior, documents his literal final days, then watch Mick Foley's

The Wrestlemania 30 Daniel Bryan doc.
Dead serious about that one.
The Ultimate Warrior doc is also amazing.

Go to Beyond the Ring and watch whatever interests you. Beyond the Ring is just a collection of their DVD documentaries. New ones on Saturdays.

Watch the WCCW doc if you wanna cry like a baby.

If you really want to watch the modern stuff you could always use hulu. Have to be a plus me ever though. I have to use it occasionally.
And then watch the AWA doc if you want to laugh at carnies backstabbing each other left and right.

I don't hate the Network. It's a good value if you are into the current product. It's a poor product based on what if offers if you aren't into the current stuff. Not having Nitro on there is inexcusable. I also don't feel comfortable giving Vince McMahon money as that would make him think I support the current direction he is taking the company, which I don't.

They are rolling out one old Raw episode per day in chronological order and Nitro is supposedly hitting around the time Raw hits September 95 (which is when Nitro debuted). Raw is currently in Feb 95.
As a UK'er who didn't want to bother with the credit card stuff bit who uses a VPN for Netflix, I jumped on this.
Bit of a lapsed fan these days, haven't watched consistently since probably 2005, but I might check out some of the current stuff and I do enjoy the nostalgia trip that is a late 1990s PPV.
Currently watching the '99 Royal Rumble, app on the PS3 is very nice. Glad to see they've got the Legends of Wrestling round table discussion series on there, I saw a couple of episodes online back in the day and loved them.

You can actually just use your own PayPal on this, even if it's not US based.
Hulu+ is better value for the current product minus the PPV. For me I use it for PPV and Count Down only, which is still worth my monthly money.

If you watch NXT Arrival , you will then have an air of hope the current product is still good, You should do that.
Good to know thanks.
Okay I'll check into that. Thanks.
My viewing habits are different since getting the Network. I'll only watch PPVs and catch This Week In WWE sometimes.
Good to see Monday Night War is finally coming.

Watch Wrestlemania XXX.
The Bret Hart documentary 'Wrestling With Shadows' is the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be.
Of course this is not a WWE doc. However, WWE has a very long (as in hours) interview with Jim Ross interviewing Shawn Michaels and Bret Hart together mixed with video footage on the Montreal screwjob, it is AMAZING. And it is on the Network, watch it!

I like how Hogan shills 3 Ninjas: High Noon at Mega Mountain during Halloween Havoc '96.
Impressive.

Network is amazing. I keep it on in the background all day at work to keep me entertained. NXT is worth the admission price alone.
Oh, cool, you left the wrestling thread to come thread shit here too.
