I was looking through the ECW PPVs, and WrestlePalooza 1998 was apparently taken down and put back up because it now has New Jack's match with Bam Bam Bigelow. NBK is dubbed over, of course, but the match is there now.
EDIT: The commentary for NJ/Rhino on NTR 2000 is new as Joey Styles now calls the match by himself instead of with Cyrus.
EDIT 2: Heat Wave 1999 now not only includes NJ's run-in after the Dudleys' match, but Bubba Ray's pre-match promo where he rips on the fans no longer has bleeps over the profanity. It was censored big-time when the Network launched.

Yeah, PWInsider are reporting they're all back up, but Joey Styles had to do new commentary for the matches, as they couldn't separate his old commentary from "Natural Born Killaz" on the audio track.

They should've gone more obvious with it. Instead of Styles doing it alone, they should've gotten, like, Renee and Kofi to do it.

I was watching Guilty as Charged 2001 tonight, and Joel Gertner's sexual-profanity-laced opening promo is uncensored.

I am so surprised that WWE actually is putting time in to restore this stuff. I am happy they are doing it, but it does surprise me they care about their fans enough to fix ECW stuff which in the past I would have thought they would have given us the "just be glad you're getting what you're getting, we don't have to release any of it."

"New Jack restored" reminded me of the Mega Man 2 screen (for some reason) when you would receive the weapons from the defeated Robot Masters. It would be like "WWE Network gets equipped N- New Jack" and then the screen would flash pink and Dr. Light would inform you that you also got C- Cocaine Laugh.

New Jack - Bam Bam is my favorite New Jack match of all time. Glad to hear it's restored for future generations.

I think they always planned to put the New Jack stuff back in, but most likely Joey was too busy at the time to finish recording all of his replacement commentary tracks.

On the old Delta Music ECW DVDs released in the UK, they'd often have to scrub out the commentary to dub over music, so I'm not surprised. Crowd noise was often left untouched though, so you could still make out the original song anyway.
It's a shame but what can you do?

Is the new commentary Joey rereading the old commentary? Or did he straight up just re-call the match?

Cyberslam was always a shot-for-home-video show, not a PPV. Only ECW PPVs and some 1993 and 1994 episodes of the syndicated ECW TV show are available right now. "ECW on TNN" and the shot-for-home-video events are not on the Network, at least not yet.

Dunno if it was noted but Hardcore Heaven '97 was somewhat censored when I watched it yesterday.

The music that they dub over Natural Born Killaz is HORRIBLE. I watched the Danbury fall a few nights ago and I'm assuming they use that music every time. I wish they'd get something that sounds more like his theme. Hell, even his music in the Anarchy Rulz game was better.

I feel like I should watch this show since WWE has had it in the "recommended" section for a while now.
