When WWE ECW had people like Kofi, Sheamus, and Yoshitatsu debuting it was actually a pretty strong show. Whoever said "proto" NXT is right. Show was really strong when folks like Matt Hardy, Swagger and Christian were champion. No kidding. You had at least one good match a show. I miss it loads and hope WWE Network airs those shows soon...
It was pretty good for like an episode, but they then would repeat that same episode format for 2 months with sometimes different results. Then they would change up the matches, have a good episode, and then repeat the same process all over again.
NXT is so much better than that. WWECW at the time felt more like a streamlined version OVW, DSW, and FCW.

The last season of NXT is the best season and best version of NXT. So goofy and dumb.
First bit sounds like you're talking about current Raw. Well, aside from that "pretty good" part.
Yep, I've started to notice this too.
No mention of bad blood with the Bellas, either.
I always liked Maria. I wish they would've let her do that split personality idea she had.

Do you know what bugs me about the WWE twitter accounts? When they all syncrhronise-shill the same crap at the same time.

This makes me miss Hero and Cesaro as Kings Of Wrestling. I wonder: if Hero hadn't have had those testosterone problems (which delayed him going to NXT), would the fact that he would've been there with Cesaro make him buck his act up?

That was the biggest shock I had when I finally got around to watching it. I watched the shows sporadically as a kid, as they were hard to find in the UK. So in isolation they were awesome, mainly due to the whacky crap going on.
But when I finally got around to being able to watch them in order... I don't know. Things were just odd.
The last year or so of WWECW was dope. Christian coming back from TNA and learning how to carry himself a legit star and basically being 1991 Bobby Eaton, but champion. The true start of Goldust's ridiculous career renaissance where he was suddenly in great shape and wrestling like Dustin Rhodes in 1992 again. Sheamus killing fools. The Hart Dynasty. Jack Swagger when he still looked like he had a ton of potential. Evan Bourne. William Regal's Roundtable. Jobber matches. It was fun.
I was pretty happy with that. It was one hour of comfort food for me, tbh. Easy to sit through that then RAWs at that time.
...watching Sami Zayn vs Titus part two right now. Titus shows a personality that I wished creative would let him use in the main roster. Sucks, man...

Oh we're talking WWECW...
Wasn't the thing with Holly that he sliced his back open in a match with RVD and suddenly everyone thought he was the greatest thing ever?!
No, I was talking about both. ECW was garbage. WWECW was so much of a lack of thing that it didn't even register for me beyond like one or two things being weird.

AH ok
The only things I remember from WWECW are the terrible PPV it had, the interesting (and somewhat successful) attempting establishing The Big Show (until terrible PPV). The rise of CM Punk and the matches with John Morrison.
The first few weeks with The Zombie and friends.
I think that's it. Oh, and marking out for various random indie names appearing out of nowhere, mainly from Chikara.
Who can forget...
She got pretty excited talking about Goldberg

WWECW had Kurt Angle's final run, I forget what he even did in his short stint though.

Honestly you should ask someone at WWE about that. My answer is what you'd expect - "just pay"
They say they just bill me December first but when using Paypal they ask for money now. Makes no sense.
I'm a little strapped for cash in November so I really didn't feel like it. Decisions..decisions.
I imagine if they say November is free that they will not bill you until Dec 1. You will probably have to provide a CC though.
I was trying to do it with PayPal but they asked to pay up front.
I'll try with a credit card to see if they wait for December first so I can cancel it after Survivor Series.
If not I'll lose 7 euros, it could be worse.
That's where the credit card part comes in. Pay it down later! Enjoy all of November's fine new content!
what goony avatar theme is going on for nov? Or I mean, for Bull Nakanovember?
do it, save.us_ply
I actually use something my bank has that simulates a credit card but works like a debit card to do online purchases so the money is paid upfront.
But hey, at least I have no debt so there's that.
