For those getting the WWE Network, what's the first PPV you're watching? I'm thinking either Royal Rumble 2000, or the one with The Rock vs Mankind in an I Quit match.

Triple H is the best body actor in WWE. I mean he's awful at doing promos, wrestling, putting people over, etc. But his facial reactions and the way he moves his body to show emotion is great.
Just for curiosity's sake I bet a lot of people will check out Over the Edge '99 or WM XX. It'll be interesting to see how those two in particular are handled.

Did they confirm whether all RAWs and Smackdowns will be available for the network launch?

Heatwave 98. That one was a game changer for me. It was my first ECW ppv and it blew my mind. Then probably KOTR 2001 where Kurt owned the night. After that I'm going for the HBK-Jericho 2008 feud and then looking up old WCW Jericho matches.
She's gonna be blown away when she realizes the fans aren't supposed to be booing at the end.
The first PPV I get to when I start watching the back catalogue of whichever weekly episodic program I decide to watch.
Sometimes he signs in NYC's Grand Central station.
You know, in the hallway connecting the trains to the shuttle to Times Square.
OHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD...

The scary thing is, I actually kinda like it. So 80's. If only this were actually Mike's work.

What and have it overshadow everything else that night.
No chance, that's what you've got.
I'll probably watch WrestleMania X for the ladder match.

Royal Rumble 94 so I can watch the Bret Hart/Owen Hart feud from the start again!

That Mike Tenay album makes me want to start a wrestling promotion in the 80s just so I could use the music on my regionally-broadcast TV show.

I'm hoping DNS settings will be enough to get the WWE Network in the UK 'early'.

It never is.
Unblock-us are making it a priority and already support MLB.TV, so things are looking good.I'm hoping DNS settings will be enough to get the WWE Network in the UK 'early'.

Tenay music is pretty dope, but what the hell does it have to do with him? :lol

Whatever happened to that Michael Bay produced NBC show about 80's pro-wrestling? I heard The Rock would be involved as well. Was it because Ebersol is in bed with the McMahons with the whole NBC Universal deal and they don't wanna see wrestling as this joke business?
Because I would LOVE a 30 Rock type show but for a wrestling promotion. Just imagine who would play the Vince Russo character? Fuck I'd make that the main protagonist.

Would let Tony Parker sleep with his wife
I have this on vhs/dvd/digital copy
I'm hearing some rumblings about a WWE/ROH partnership incoming. Don't know to what extent yet.
Probably WWE using ROH matches for some DVD...a DVD like... a Daniel Bryan DVD.

I dunno man, all it would do would do it wrong :/ Like REAL wrong. Like...you know how there were some TV shows in the early 2000s about video game characters/families? Like that bad.

Nice to hear this, hopefully I can access it via my PS4 later in the month.
Guess I'll start with Owen's PPV. Either that or Insurrexion, if it's in there.

I mean yeah if you fuck it up, you fuck it up.
Maybe not a comedy, but how about some hard ass drama depressing shit. Basically a show about the Von Erichs during WCCW on HBO. Tell me you wouldn't watch that. Fuck just make an anthology show ala True Detective using David Shoemaker's The Squared Circle.

i don't know what the fuck i'm listening to
but I like it
What's this nerdy fantasy stuff doing in my WrassleGAF?
Seriously though, I have never heard of this series or the author. Is it good?
Zack Ryder is currently praying that someone else from Long Island gets signed to the WWE.

Newly announced match for WrestleMania XXX:
The Cleveland Connection vs. The Zack & Sock Connection
Will be added to a showcase lineup that also includes:
- John Cena burying Bray Wyatt's gimmick
- Big Dave winning the WWE World Heavyweight title in an epic 5-star classic against Randy Orton
- D.Brine losing to Triple H (because he's a loser) but still getting to chant YES! with the 75,000+ in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome because he will get back together with his good buddy Corporate Kane who will turn face for the 20th time in his career
- Brock Lesnar jobbing for the umpteenth time to the 48-year-old Undertaker (22-0)
- Cody Rhodes getting the rub from his big brother, Goldust
- Roman Reigns turning face on the Shield after what will likely be the best match of the entire show
- And Hulk Hogan being a glory hog while hosting the festivities; can't wait to see those pythons of his doing the YES! chant
The only thing worth cheering that entire weekend will be Jake's induction into the Hall of Fame. And whatever wrestling gets booked by other companies.
Oh God I hope I get a chance to see Taker's match at least before the crowd burn that place to the ground. HHH really is beyond parody now.

I'll give the WWE some credit. I don't think they'd fuck that match up.
They'd have Ziggles and Billy wrestle one another.
The only way that match gets fucked up is if they put it in a steel cage and ask Dolph to top Cody's attempt at killing himself from Monday.
did anyone think Bryan would go over trips at Mania? Come the fuck on guys. Have you already forgotten 2011? They wouldn't put HHH over the hottest guy in wrestling since the Attitude Era. Surely!
The crowd shitting on the "main event" is going to be great.
ha
this fucking company

tap that thorax
Road Dogg should hit his head really hard in the match and become convinced that Ziggler is his partner. That will lead to RD attacking BG and opening the door for Miz to get the pin.
