WWE officials are considering several new types of shows for the WWE Network. Courtesy of WrestlingDVDNews.com, below is a list of shows that WWE recently gauged fan interest on:
• News (Comedic): News show about all things WWE. Presented with a comedic slant like the Daily Show with Jon Stewart or The Colbert Report.
* News (Serious): A news show about all things WWE. Presented with a more serious approach like ESPN’s SportsCenter.
* Documentary: New additions to the existing documentary line-up, such as Journey to WrestleMania: Daniel Bryan. In-depth programs about WWE related topics, similar to HBO’s Hard Knocks, or Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth.
* In-Ring: New additions to the existing in-ring show line-up, such as RAW, Main Event, and NXT.
* Game Shows: Superstars hosting, or being involved in, WWE-themed game shows in which fans compete for cash prizes like on Cash Cab, Jeopardy!, and Family Feud.
* Talk Shows: Intimate and exclusive interviews with Superstars, Legends and Divas in a Late Show with David Letterman or Tonight Show format and similar to Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel.
* Animated: New additions to the existing animated programming line-up, such as Slam City.
* Reality: Docu-series: Unscripted reality shows that explore the daily lives of Superstars, like seen on Total Divas or similar to Deadliest Catch or Dog The Bounty Hunter.
* Reality: Lifestyle: Reality shows that explore the lifestyle of a Superstar, like foods they crave and places they like to travel. Similar to Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, or Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown.
* Reality: Competition (In-Ring): “In-ring” competition shows, like Tough Enough. The new season of Tough Enough has been confirmed for the Network and begins filming soon at the WWE Performance Center.
* Reality: Competition (Outside The Ring): Competition shows that have Superstars, Divas and Legends competing against each other outside the ring like on Amazing Race or Shaq Vs.
* Reality: Buying/Selling: Reality shows looking at collecting habits of Superstars, or buying and selling pop culture memorabilia or antiques, like on Pawn Stars or American Pickers.
* Reality: Survival: Reality shows featuring Superstars, Divas, and Legends attempting to survive in the wild, like on Dude You’re Screwed, or Survivorman.
* Reality: Prank Shows: Reality shows featuring Superstars, Divas and Legends “punking” and pranking each other like on Punk’d or Impractical Jokers.nodq.com/wwe/401744969.shtmlI say we release the Iron Sheik into the wild and let everything happen from there.

I'd much prefer them to put their entire Raw, Smackdown, Saturday Nights Main Event library on before putting on this sort of filler stuff.

Isn't the "News (Serious)" one already in the works? At the CES presentation, Michelle Wilson mentioned that a live daily studio show would be coming soon.
If WWE wants an opinion on new Network shows, I have three words for them: Are. You. Serious.
Do it, WWE.

Not really digging how much reality TV they are getting ideas for. I get that wrestling is basically the original reality TV show but Legends House, whilst somewhat entertaining isn't giving me confidence that WWE can pull this off well. I'd much prefer more animation like Slam City, only with more of a super-hero comic book theme. I'm talking a Legion of Heels meeting in Del Rio's tower or Bray's compound to talk about how next to take over the world, with maniacal laughs a plenty.

WWE officials are considering several new types of shows for the WWE Network. Courtesy of WrestlingDVDNews.com, below is a list of shows that WWE recently gauged fan interest on:
• News (Comedic): News show about all things WWE. Presented with a comedic slant like the Daily Show with Jon Stewart or The Colbert Report. No, Triple H does that already everytime he cuts a promo.
* News (Serious): A news show about all things WWE. Presented with a more serious approach like ESPN’s SportsCenter. Nah, then wins and losses might actually matter. We can't have that.
* Documentary: New additions to the existing documentary line-up, such as Journey to WrestleMania: Daniel Bryan. In-depth programs about WWE related topics, similar to HBO’s Hard Knocks, or Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth. Sure, depending on the topic at hand, I'm there.
* In-Ring: New additions to the existing in-ring show line-up, such as RAW, Main Event, and NXT. How about a 15-minute highlight package on weekend live events? Preview where WWE is going next week. Let fans know when arena shows are coming to their town. Fans can see excitement and wanna be there!
* Game Shows: Superstars hosting, or being involved in, WWE-themed game shows in which fans compete for cash prizes like on Cash Cab, Jeopardy!, and Family Feud. YES! YES! YES!
* Talk Shows: Intimate and exclusive interviews with Superstars, Legends and Divas in a Late Show with David Letterman or Tonight Show format and similar to Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel. No, the market is burned out on that. Even hosts don't want to do that.
* Animated: New additions to the existing animated programming line-up, such as Slam City. How about new Slam City before we commit to other new shows?
* Reality: Docu-series: Unscripted reality shows that explore the daily lives of Superstars, like seen on Total Divas or similar to Deadliest Catch or Dog The Bounty Hunter. Like Total Divas? No. Not just no, but definitive NO!
* Reality: Lifestyle: Reality shows that explore the lifestyle of a Superstar, like foods they crave and places they like to travel. Similar to Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, or Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown. If you get a Superstar and can do a version of Rick Steves' Europe where they show you around their hometown, I'll be there. (Just an aside, always wondered why a wrestler to this point hasn't come up with some sort of travel book. Places they've seen and stuff like that. I know they don't get a lot of "free time" but you'd think Chris Jericho would have had one by now.)
* Reality: Competition (In-Ring): “In-ring” competition shows, like Tough Enough. The new season of Tough Enough has been confirmed for the Network and begins filming soon at the WWE Performance Center. Only if you bring in Bill DeMott and Bob Holly.
* Reality: Competition (Outside The Ring): Competition shows that have Superstars, Divas and Legends competing against each other outside the ring like on Amazing Race or Shaq Vs. Not interested.
* Reality: Buying/Selling: Reality shows looking at collecting habits of Superstars, or buying and selling pop culture memorabilia or antiques, like on Pawn Stars or American Pickers. That would be rather fun.
* Reality: Survival: Reality shows featuring Superstars, Divas, and Legends attempting to survive in the wild, like on Dude You’re Screwed, or Survivorman. Or The Artist Formerly Known As Lord Tensai in Naked and Afraid. No thanks.
* Reality: Prank Shows: Reality shows featuring Superstars, Divas and Legends “punking” and pranking each other like on Punk’d or Impractical Jokers. Randy Orton craps in your bag. No thanks.
