Great I just realized I got charged for the free trial.
I'm not as mad as I should be, cuz I'm already leaning toward keeping it.

Yeah, navigation got easier when I figured that out and more.

Aaaaaaand the Network just completely crashed for me. I got through halfway of the first match on Survivor Series '91 and it started taking about 30 seconds to buffer 5 seconds. Now it's just outright frozen.

I know I needed a subscription to use it on my Roku.

I had a break between classes and I was able to watch live on my phone, but when I got home some videos aren't working for me :| Im on the trial if that makes a difference.
I will say though the quality for this is dope as fuck.

Yep. Just totally crashed. Just kicked me out of Survivor Series '91. It sent me back to the PPV listing screen.

No one has succesfully beaten the "Media Error: Video not available" monster have they?
Edit- Just as I say that: it works. (At least it finds media!)

Still working for me. Just checked. The time it takes to load though has gone through the roof. A good 30 seconds before it started.

I just keep trying until it works, and it usually does.

Yeah it's weird, you'd think the live portion would be having all the problems. But what do I know.
Thanks. The site was glitched or something. It's working now. Are there any documentaries up yet?
Spider from Mars
tap that thorax
Shawn Vs. Bret and Wrestlemania Rewind
just a couple
So far just the Bret/Shawn rivalry doc and later on they're showing Austin's doc (the one that came out in 2011 I believe). It's part of the live programming though, not on demand.
Spider from Mars
tap that thorax
I believe there can be up to two active users at once
I like that idea. Plenty of things like that would be great once all of the archive content is up - follow one superstar's career, watch all of a specific match type in the order they were held, etc.
That is disappointing. I want to watch all the docs. Netflix has more than them?
Not really. There is like a misc section more or less, but no collections of past DVD Docs.
edit: It's called THE VAULT
ECW Hardcore TV- random shows
WCCW- random show
Legends of Wrestling- looks like round table stuff with legends
Old School-old msg matches
idk why but sometimes when i hit x it registers as circle or "going back", and vice versa also happens.
I actually expected the live stream to work well, the on demand content I knew was gonna be a mess lol.

They're streaming the first Wrestlemania. They're just about the IC match between Junkyard Dog and Greg Valentine. Quality looks great.
Sadly its better quality than the modern day archived ppvs and shows lol
Netflix has A LOT more documentaries than the network right now.

I've only been able to test it on my phone so far but this seems like a home run for the WWE. Quality over LTE is awesome, looks HD. Love that they have a live stream plus all of the on demand content. This seems like a great value for $9.99 a month. Can't wait to test it on my laptop.
That's how the MLB At Bat app is as well. It's seems to be the same thing.
I shouldn't have phrased that as a question. What I meant was it's crazy that Netflix has more than them. I've seen them all and they are great. I hope they get more docs.

"And now glover presents WWF rock bottom! In your house!" Come back Glover.
lol same company so I don't doubt it. They should really change the layout in a patch though.

Netflix may have some exclusive or time exclusive streaming rights.
Netflix probably wouldn't give WWE all this money to be able to stream stuff that WWE fans would just watch on the network.
It's just a matter of time, it's great content to fill the live channel.
Could be but why is Greatest Rivalries there then? That's also on netflix.

It'd be fantastic if Thunder and Saturday Night were available sooner rather than later.

Pretty sure all WWE content will eventually be on the Network, it's just going to be a slow trickle of uploads.
