With the library the WWE has of dark matches and house shows and other stuff, they really really should do a Network show giving away exclusive unseen matches. Surely all of the dark matches from those massive multiple TV taping from the 80's/90's and early 00's are all on tape somewhere. They must be in fact since a few have popped up on DVD's in the past such as Edge and Christian's dark mach in 1997 and the Harts vs Rockers tag title change.
A show with this would be absolutely amazing, It would be worth subscribing for it alone. So what dark matches would you love too see?

I mentioned this in a thread eons ago when the announced the Network a few years ago.
I'd love to see Marty Jannetty (c) vs Shawn Michaels with the debuting "bodyguard" from June 1993 again. I was in attendence & was about 12 years old. I'd love to watch it again to see if it was every bit as good as I remember.
I'd also like to see the Legends Battle Royale from 87 or 88 (forget the exact year).

They were in WWF magazine as well, and they reported Michaels broke Jannetty's jaw w/ the superkick (in the mag). But, there was a hard camera at the show. I remember that. I don't think they wanted to show the footage because it was only one camera, and it wasn't at ringside. I'd still be happy to watch that one angle. |

Maybe a cool show with things that only happened at house shows and were not seen on tv. Maybe like when someone returned or debuted for a tryout and things never quite made it to tv as they appeared at the house show.
Wait, that's too good of an idea if I do say so myself-it'll never happen.

I'm still waiting to see the finish of the Strike Force vs. Hart Foundation match from the February 5, 1988 Main Event NBC special.

Randy Orton and Brock Lesnar were originally tried out as a tag team, I believe. Them vs Ron Waterman and someone used to be available online. I'd like to see that dark match. Hogan's real last WWF match before leaving for WCW. Some of the house show WWF/WCW supershows they did. There's so much they could do here.

I would like to see the "Lost Episodes" of WCW Worldwide that were taped in mid-1993 that feature WCW World Champion Sid Vicious

They tape some house shows, or parts of some house shows. Wouldn't hurt do to a 23 min or -- 45 min show [1/2 hr or 1 hr but without commercials] show basically highlighting what a WWE Live Event experience is. Show parts of matches maybe some show segments, and highlight the VIP meet and greet.

I was at a house show in Baton Rouge where Roddy Piper beat Ric Flair in a cage match to win the WWF title.
Would love to see that again

Have they ever recorded house shows? Pretty sure the only footage in existence you can find is fan shot. I've been to one in my life in 2010 and didn't see video cameras, only photographers.
I'm sure a lot of dark matches have been recorded though, especially if it's a tryout or testing a developmental talent, I know there is or was a load of pre-debut Lesnar, Cena, Orton and Batista/Leviathan matches on Youtube in varying quality.

Was looking up house show results... apparently it was a non title match. Piper's greatest enemy was remembering to ask for the title to be on the line |

No, they don't. The only times anything is recorded at a house show is if they're already intending to use footage of it (often a title change) on one of their TV shows. House shows by their very nature means they aren't recorded. |
