As noted, WWE Network will premiere a new show called WWE 24 this Monday night after RAW at 11:06pm EST. Below is the description for the new thirty-minute show:

“The premiere episode of the original series, WWE24, takes you behind the spectacle of WrestleMania XXX and its most compelling stories.”

The idea of the show is to give an inside look at some of WWE’s milestone events and larger-than-life Superstars. WWE will use personal archives, interviews and behind-the-scenes footage to present current and former talents or events in a different way than they usually do.

WWE 24 was described as similar to the new TNA Unlocked show but with a bigger budget. Apparently it will air each Monday night on the WWE Network after RAW ends.

So it's a repeat of Raw with random pop up facts and a short intro recorded by Jerry Lawler?

[Wolfman Rose]

Looking at the ad, it looks like a damn good idea. I'm looking forward to watching it.

[Juice]

yeah it looks awesome

[TOO SWEET]

From the commercial I took it as a WWE version of ESPN's "30 for 30", which I can definitely get into.

[Lancers]

I hope they do one for this year's Royal Rumble


*Vince and Triple H sitting next to one another in the Gorilla position, they make brief eye contact, but quickly go back to looking at their monitors. Both men heavily sigh simultaneously knowing they had made a huge error. Triple H is about to say something, but Vince gives him a dirty stare and Triple H immediately stops what he's about to say, Vince sighs again. Bryan returns to the Gorilla Position, gives them both a thumbs up and leaves. Triple H and Vince shake their heads*

[Main Eventer]

For this year's Rumble: "No what are you talking about, they aren't booing Reigns, your just hearing things, you love Roman Reigns, you want Roman Reigns to beat Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania, please love Roman Reigns."

I was hoping it would be Dean Ambrose and his trials and tribulations working for a counter terrorism unit.

I'm excited for this

[Topher is Human]

Just started watching this now... And they open up with Connor followed immediately by Warrior... The feels

[Professor Chaos]

That Connor stuff made me cry. I know Cena does a ton for make a wish but they've never shown anything like what Bryan did for that kid. RIP.

[Dave the Dave]

Well that should have been an hour. Great stuff.

[Cranjis McBasketball]

Do they finally answer when Jack Bauer goes to the bathroom???!!

[Green Arrow]

I could watch that sort of stuff forever... Absolutely Awesome.

I shed a tear for Connor too.

[67 more]

Cool show but it didn't tell me anything I didn't really know.

[Zach]

almost all of it was just re-used footage. The Connor story is on their youtube channel, and all the Warrior stuff was from his documentary the network did plus clips from the upcoming documentary. 

That whole "CAN WE GET SOME HELP HERE" clip they kept showing, they never even really showed what was going on...they just cut to an ambulance driving off.

I don't think the show was a full hour either, I started watching it at 11:20 and it was over before 12

[mattperiolat]

The feels. Conner, Warrior and Taker. Thank goodness for Bryan or 30 may go down as the most depressing Mania of all time.

[MiLB Fan]

That shot of Vince and Undertaker hugging just before 'Taker's match started ... damn that was powerful.

I liked the shots of the production crew getting ready for certain segments, like when they rolled all those caskets up the ramps for Undertaker's entrance. That's one of the reasons I enjoy going to TV tapings and PPVs: they're a chance to see a bit of WWE behind the scenes. The live crowd gets to see people at work that most watching on television probably don't even think about.

Totally agree that it should have been an hour; you can't fit WWE's biggest event of the year into 30 minutes.

It was never advertised as an hour, it was always on the schedule as a 30 minute show.

I really liked seeing the NXT Divas' excitement over being featured in front of 60,000+ people.
I didn't know it was Charlotte's birthday the day of, so that must have been even more awesome for her to partake in.
I was happy to see Sasha Banks be overwhelmed by it

The whole Connor thing, again and again, will make me cry. I try not to, but it is hard to not shed a tear in the face of such courage. Poor kid. I'm so glad he got to live the best moment of his life with his favorite wrestler.

Which leads me to this - how in the blue hell does the WWE forget how Daniel Bryan had an ENTIRE FOOTBALL STADIUM going apeshit and chanting his chant, over and over again. How do you take that obvious love, and care and respect that the fans have for a performer and just piss it all away with no looking back?
