I'm gonna watch on xbox one too. I haven't tried the app yet, but I probably won't watch live anyway.

People looking to use Flipps app + Xbox, this was posted on reddit:
Looks like it's just Chromecast, LG tv's, and Xbox's though. At least that's what I understand from that picture.
If it streams to one device, how could it not stream to other devices? This makes no sense to be honest.

It should work on PS3 since that has dlna support. I still don't know how they could prevent a device from watching it though if it uses dlna.
My Playstations are not showing up in the app. It's possible I just don't know what I'm doing, but if folks think WWE is having trouble with the Network because of a confused fanbase, how the h do people think this event is going to have any meaningful exposure if it's this difficult to watch the thang?
Oh well. I guess I'm back to leaning towards not getting it. This will probably go on all day. >_>

10.00 make you holla get the NJPW monthly gimmick, the REAL 9.99 experience.

Do you have dlna enabled on the ps3 and it turned on?

Yeah, not to mention that despite the fact that you can't understand a thing he's saying, Ozaki is a great announcer.
Obligatory
I dunno. I'm kind of tired of trying. I may look later. Either way, thanks for offering assistance.
Yeah, but I'd like to understand the words. I don't think I'd enjoy it more than the English commentary. I mean, half the reason I'm even looking into this is to see how JR does.

Hopefully you get it to work. They should have used something else besides flipps. Its almost like they want people to watch illegal streams for free versus pay for one.

Can someone from the UK using windows watch wrasslekingdom with JR commentary? The flipps things seems hella confusing
Nap now and prepare yourself. Or maybe the sheer hype of New Japan will keep you awake.
I really am digging the card. Save for the first match which seems like a silly opener, nearly everything on display seems solid from a purely booking standpoint. I hope some people at WWE take note of this: this is how you book a show.
Or at least take some notes from NXT

Are you referring to the dark match or the four-way? Because while the four way will be a clusterfuck it should be pretty fun

Vince doesn't watch NJPW or NXT.Or at least take some notes from NXT
He doesn't run a wrestling promotion. That's what his father did.
Vince is all about the sports entertainment and what he says goes.
Now enjoy this 2-minute women's match that ends with a roll-up pin and builds to a storyline for Total Divas.
The dark match. The four way could potentially be very great, even if it's only bathed in spots. Spots aren't a bad thing, though.
Other guys will get some big entrances. Remember last year we also got Time Splitters in a DeLorean, Nakamura with the pole dancers and Tanahashi with Marty Friedman playing his song.

Don't forget KES on the motorcycles (except DBS Jr. looked really dorky on the trike)
And two years ago we had Ayumi Nakamura live-performing Kaze Ni Nare (AKA the BEST ENTRANCE THEME EVER) for Minoru Suzuki before his match with Nagata. Also Low Ki dressed as Agent 47 for no apparent reason and wrestling in a goddamn suit and tie.
How is Okada ever gonna top his dinosaur though? Can't be done.
TWO DINOSAURS AND AN EVEN BIGGER ANIME SWORD!

If any of you haven't experienced Devitt's WK8 entrance before, go here and jump to 4:19.
Feel free to contrast it against the Finn Balor NXT R-Evolution entrance we've all seen by now.

Him dressing like Noctis from FFXV and he gets played to the ring by the Black Mages?
Does he stop halfway and vanish for years? :3c

I'm all in for this tonight since it's at 11 PM my time. 4 hours, though

Ordered on Directv and am beyond ready for this show! Jim Ross is the icing on the badass wrestling cake that is NJPW. The Jarrett match is the only meh match for me but even that will be passable. I need a bunch of highlight packages to pass the time.

JR just having fun out there
I'm sticking with the Japanese commentary but no matter the reaction to the job he does I'm going to pretend that he killed it. Glad his last gig is with a cool company that seems to be treating him quite well

Where do you guys keep finding these JR pix at?

I extended my vacation so I won't be able to watch and see who becomes Wrestle King or whatever, think it'll be worth going dark so I can catch up when I get home?
Triple confirmed that my cable provider is only offering the event live in standard definition. I'm still tempted to order it just so I can see with my own eyes that this is actually still possible in the year 2015. It just can't be. So absurd.
So anyway, I download the Flipps app, which I'm not too enthused about, just to see if it would even work. It connects to my Sony TV just fine, but then when I try to play a video, I get sound from my TV but no picture. Double J is not making it easy for me to get JR commentary at all.

Not IMO. To make matters worse they're like drinking motor oil.
I'll stick with my old standby, Mountain Dew.

Luckily, I seemed to have convinced a friend to come over despite her not knowing anything about wrestling. Hoping that helps to keep me awake in combination with a cappuccino she is bringing me.
