This Andre/Studd Feud started in 83 didn't get a payoff until Mania

Unrelated to this (R.I.P. Owen), I'm thinking we need to have a group viewing of some serious Network PPVs at some point. |

I signed up around 1:00 PM today with no issues. The live feed on Apple TV is pretty much flawless. Wrestlemania 1 is on now and looks terrific, and I've had no buffering issues. On demand stuff doesn't work at all. I've tried to stream WCW Wrestlewar '90 on Apple TV, Roku, and the WWE App on iPad with no success whatsoever. On Apple TV the rating screen will load up but after trying to pull up the stream for a few seconds it gives up and goes back to the menu.

I have all the types of devices to stream this, minus Roku and both my 360 and PS3 won't work. My iPhone, iPad, and Macbook pro work fine with an occasional hiccup in loading (rare). My Apple TV was working and I watched about 30 minutes before it gave out.  |

So Seth Rollins had a quote on the first episode of Countdown that I feel applies to a lot of the troubles people are having with the Network.
"One way or another, someone was suckin' it."

hopefully in the future theyll add a feature taht shows you what match you're currently watching Not sure if this is what you mean, but I watching through the website, I could see bookmarks (don't know what else to call them) which told you about the content at that time. Here is a screenshot I took. Notice the little picture of Andre the Giant at the bottom. I had my mouse over this area and it showed me what content was there. Most content doesn't feature this yet.  |

Got signed up for the network (through the iPhone App) around 230. Get home from work...fire up on my MaBook and it logse right in & the live stream of Mania 1 is playing smooth..so far so good. I decide to treat myself to one of my favorite PPVs of all time...HEATWAVE 98. This where the aggravation starts...Franchises promo to open? Bleeped in 3 places. Not a good start. Then I get to the match Most wanted to see, the tag match with RVD & Sabu....RVDs entrance wasn't "Walk." It was some bullshit production music guitar track I could find in the production studio of any radio station in the country. Not good. At all. "Completely unedited" my ass. Hmm. I honestly have no clue if/how any of this would work, but I wonder if there's a false advertising issue here. It seems like this would be a clear case of bait & switch, and open to a class action suit. We were told one thing, give them our money, & get the exact opposite. I don't suppose we have a tort lawyer here, do we? Well, it didn't get any better when I got to the Dudley promo prior to the main event...compared to how that promo actually went vs what's on the Network it's really comical. |

...........I'm just now realizing that WWE Network is over the internet only, and that it's not actually on cable TV.
Huh.
Well, I guess I'm never seeing this then. *shrugs*

And Very little editing of old shows.... They make up for it with the butchering of ECW PPV (based on one show so far...but I don't hold out hope it'll get any better on other shows) I really don't know, when it comes to editing, what aggravates me more...bleeping (or in the Dudley's case chopping) entire promos or the bullshit generic music. This is not a good starting point for me. And, if live PPVs run like Today in general has this will be a massive fail built on the pretense of false advertising. I am displeased. Especially since I signed up for the full thing based on what it was SUPPOSED to be. |

Nice touch. How do they handle the actual incident during the show? |

It's time to cut a promo. Yeah, My Wife cut a pretty scathing one to illustrate how frustrated we have been with tech support. We're really hard to upset too.  I'm glad you got through finally. It shouldn't have to take four freakin' times to get competent service. |

I think the Raws up there (at least when I checked earlier today) don't go back that far. I thought I saw that December 2012 was the earliest Raw in the archives. If I remember, the Lawler heart attack was in September of 2012.

Had some trouble signing up and getting things working but everything is going smooth now. I'm watching my favorite/first WrestleMania. 21. It froze when I first started it but now it's playing seamlessly. Adding to this that I am having some issues with the quality. I know 21 wasn't in HD but I was under the impression that it would at least be the same quality as the DVD and it's not. I figured it was like Netflix where it'd improve after it's fully finished loading but it's been on for about 10 minutes now and it's still not as clear as I think it should be. |

Anyone have a list of things that are currently censored/edited on the network right now?
