So how is the network treating you guys?

Tried PS4 app at like 9am today and had problems and immediately switched to PC and haven't had any problems since.

 

[slightconfuse]

Live stuff world perfect. VOD are not loading at all

 

[Scottify]

How are y'all watching the Network today? Computer, phone, tablet, streaming to TV?

I'm excited to try it out on my Kindle Fire tonight.

 

[Arrowgigantic]

The theme of this Wrestlemania is that if you are from Hawaii, you are just from Hawaii. There are no cities in Hawaii.

 

[Deadly Joker]

So how is the network treating you guys?

I'm in buffering hell. On both Roku and Apple TV. I'm just ready for Raw to start.

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]

At this rate, we're gonna need like three OT's if we all just live chat the Network stream.

Edit: Watched Halloween Havoc 91 and got to the end of the Chamber of Horrors match (needs to be seen if you haven't) then it just stopped during the Big Josh match.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Trips and Vinny sucked us in. Gaf took the bait. Now we OT2


BTW Trips we did get what we wanted.


More Dino Bravo, Brain Busters, Demolition

I've been watching on PC and PS3! PS3 has been working great for me.

 

[Plywood]

Another great Ambrose pic

So Bray didn't actually beat him up out of the arena, just off-screen? So Dean just had to lay there the rest of the match?

 

[WhoaIsThatMars]

Let's all live chat different PPVs at the same time

 

[Snaku]

The WWE Network logo will be the new WWE logo, period. I bet they say so either tonight, or after Mania.

NETWORK IS SICK.

impressions: Live stream is solid, worked without issue for me. Adaptive bitrate. VOD is slow to buffer, but is fantastic quality once done. Adaptive bitrate as well. All PPVs.

tldr; Van Hammer Sucks

I'm ok with that, scratch logo is so outdated.

Really loving the Network so far.

Next week: March 3rd RAW OT - This one deserves its own thread

 

[Slizeezyc]

Guys WrestleMania succeeded in part due to a woman, but does Vince think they don't need to wrestle because Cyndi Lauper didn't need to?

 

[Mahonay]

So how is the network treating you guys?

On my work MacBook it errors out for every video I try to play.

Gotta hope it at least works at my apartment on either my Mac Mini or PS4.

 

[G-Fex]

Oh, Cyndi Lauper

She was on the Super Mario super show you know.

The theme of this Wrestlemania is that if you are from Hawaii, you are just from Hawaii. There are no cities in Hawaii.

there's cities in hawaii now?

 

[Mahonay]

So Bray didn't actually beat him up out of the arena, just off-screen? So Dean just had to lay there the rest of the match?

Probably the latter.

It's an incredibly easy angle for more tension amongst the Shield. Reigns asking where the hell Ambrose was while they lost the match to the Wyatts.

 

[Scottify]

Hailing from Parts Unknown, Hawaii...

 

[Perspicacity]

So Bray didn't actually beat him up out of the arena, just off-screen? So Dean just had to lay there the rest of the match?

I'd assume he got Sister Abigail'd or something. I was worried that Bray ate him.

Trips and Vinny sucked us in. Gaf took the bait. Now we OT2

WrassleGAF always takes the bait.
Doesn't matter how many times we shill NJPW in here.
There are people paying for the WWE Network in this very thread to re-watch MITB 2011 that haven't even bothered to watch Ishii vs. Naito yet.

It's such a shame.

Next week: March 3rd RAW OT - This one deserves its own thread

Every RAW is getting its own thread now. Splintering WrassleGAF community discussion across multiple threads is the cool thing to do.
At this rate, WWE Superstars will have its own unique weekly thread in a year's time.

 

[Dr Duncan Steel]

Next week: March 3rd RAW OT - This one deserves its own thread

Basically at the rate of live chatting the stream on the OT, we'll need like five monthly OTs

Spoiler

Three ain't enough

I currently watch both. I enjoy them each for different reasons.

 

[Spider from Mars]

Hogan is bringing the Nasty Boyz to take the tag titles and Brutus for the IC. They've never been more ready brother!

 

[sf2fanatic]

WrassleGaf gonna be like the EVO threads. Takes two OT per weekend

 

[Superman x JLA]

LOL at Ric Flair's 1992 post Royal Rumble promo: "With a tear in my eye". It's just as good as I remembered it.

#prayforambrose

Apparently thats what happened

 

[Slizeezyc]

I'm with this guy.

I've seen Ishii vs. Naito and buy many of their PPVs -- and also pay for the Network.

WrassleGAF is a loving wrasslin' environment, don't make me choose between my children!

 

[Batigol]

Val Venis on Summerslam '98.

I came, I saw. I came again.

Filthy bugger!

 

[Slizeezyc]

Lauper has so much lipstick on her teeth and can't even say her opponent's name. So amazing.

 

[UberTag]

Guys, I'm seroulsy thinking about going to that ROH-NJPW show in Toronto. It would cost alot to flight to Toronto but I think it would be cheaper than going to Japan. Anyone else who might be going?

I'm going.
canadian crowe is going.
I believe Brinbe and krae_man are going.

There may well be others. And yeah, certainly cheaper than travelling to Japan.
Exchange rate is decent for folks travelling across the border as well right now.
I believe $1 US = $1.11 Canadian.

Botchamania road-tests the WWE Network

Hurry before it gets taken down again!

 

[Scottify]

Getting into Japanese wrestling is tricky, at least for me. I know next to nothing other than what I learned from playing Giant Gram way back when.

I know of Misawa and Kobashi(?) but nothing current, heck I'm not even sure what to look for on YouTube other than the occasional link here.

New Japan is the scholar and WWE is the popular fuck up. TNA was the one with a promising future that suffered brain damage and is on life support.

 

[G-Fex]

they got billy martin and liberace?

and Muhammed Ali :O

I always found the best way to get into Japanese wrestler was to find a specific one you liked and work from there.

TNA was in the car with Russo while he was texting and driving.

Basically, you want to watch NJPW and than branch out from there. The upcoming ROH/NJPW show will be a great primer to get you started.

The upcoming New Japan Cup would be a great place to start since it features most of their HWs

Best Wrestlemania celebrity of all time is Diddy.

I've seen some of Bully Ray's most recent promos. Also Jeff Hardy's Willow thing? Holy fuck. Jeff must be divvying some powerful shit from his stash.

Wait till he pulls out the pink super-soaker full of white fluid...

Got my tickets for the NYC show! So pumped. Just hope ROH doesn't ruin it.

Nothing wrong with loving all kings of wrestling from all kinds of sources.

Just understand that your investment in the network is an endorsement of WWE booking in 2014 - and that you have no leverage to speak of when it comes to expecting them to deliver a quality product once you make that $120/year commitment.

They could have Triple H and his buddies wrestle brooms for 6 hours each week while The Great Khali is on commentary and your subscription dollars would be telling Vince and company that's exactly what you want to see and that you want more of it.

ITS HIM HULKSTER

Willow isn't new, it's just new to TNA. I can't wait, it's going to be amazing. I've been riding with TNA for close to a decade so I am ready and prepared to ride with them to the great event in the sky.

 

[Scottify]

Thanks Dragonzord & tm24. I'll check out some of their matches tonight and see what I've been missing out on.

 

[Slizeezyc]

Roman Reigns is such a god he just showed up on Mania 1 for a moment to push a promo bug off the screen -- WITH ONE HAND.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Looking forward to watch Guerrero/Cena backstage fight when I get home from work. Wish there were more backstage streetfights

 

[G-Fex]

Even back in the 80's, Orton couldn't stay away from the main event

That's all I have ever wanted.
