Ouch, this caller on the LAW is so damned cringe worthy. Never bring up piracy as a legitimate option for watching wrestling.

It's not even that. His argument for going against the "principal" to things is met in the face when he's paid money for the last two pay per views shows he's gonna conform to this shit on some level. Using piracy as your alternative is hilarious. If that was the case, he wouldn't have bought tonight's fucking event!

Why not? There was someone posting in the actual EC thread asking for a stream. No a lamp, a stream. In the thread itself. And no one cared.
 
I think it's more of a "we want to make sure this works in the US, and then roll it out to other territories" first thing....there also might be other contractual hangups to work out that take more time.

I would bet large sums of money that it is the CRTC (basically the FCC for Canada but even more invasive and restrictive) that is holding back the network from coming here.

The CRTC is always to blame for all of Canada's misfortunes.
Them, Rogers, Bell, Harper, construction companies and the weather.

They've slammed people for admitting to that crime on the air before. Calling in and publicly endorsing that on the show is just asinine.

And times have changed. Wasn't asking for lamps ban-worthy some months ago?

Would let Tony Parker sleep with his wife

they act so salty about wwe network not coming there that it's annoying. It's not the company. Its your country.
 
Going by this the card is:
Batista vs Orton
Cena vs Bray
Triple H vs Lesnar
Daniel Bryan vs Hulk Hogan
Undertaker vs the WWE Universe

Batista vs Orton = Crowd wins and loses
Cena vs Bray = #Cenawinslol
Triple H vs Lesnar = "HHH conquered the beast in one of the best matches of all time" - The Big Show
Daniel Bryan vs Hulk Hogan = Hogan hospitalized due to attempted movement in a squared circle
Undertaker vs the WWE Universe = Undefeated streak continues because The Universe can't keep up with the finisher spam

Seriously, they know damn well why the 'E are rolling it out by pieces. They reported that the WWE was dropped by Dish, yet they are still bitching

Nah. Thats just a lot of photoshop.

Not as bad as when he still had long hair and they just used a body shot from around the early 00's.

HHH was in great shape in 2008/2009. That bottom picture is touched up a bit, but it isn't far off from what he actually looked like.

HHH should have been Thor.

Made more silly by the fact that's it's alright for him to not be mega ripped. He's in his mid 40s and only wrestles occasionally.

If HHH was Thor, that movie would have ended after 15 minutes.

"Script says here that Thor isn't worthy to wield the hammer? That doesn't work for me, so--" (tears page out and hands it to writer) "Fix it."

Also would have no sold all of Loki's tricks.

TBH the only time he really looked out of shape was that ladder match with Nash.

He looks grand now and at least the promo material is accurate and not making him look like Chris Masters.
