So I just got the WWE Network on my Roku and enjoy being able to watch PPV along with RAW and Smackdown... only 1 problem.
When looking under the shows, I do not see the most recent episodes of RAW or Smackdown... I thought when I payed for the network I would at least get some current shows.
The main reason I got the WWE network was because I got disconnected my cable, thinking I could have all the WWE on the roku.
So... my main question is: Is the only way to watch RAW and SMACKDOWN is specifically when they are showing, or will we be able to watch them under the shows tab>??
BTW... the latest episodes I saw under shows for RAW or SD was MAY14.

Episodes are posted about a month after they air on television.

No.
Like it always has been, due to the way that current broadcasting rights are settled, the Network can ONLY show events that have been broadcast on TV 30 days or more beyond their original airdate.
Unless the TV deal changes DRAMATICALLY, the only way one could watch Raw/SD "live" is on the TV network.

Hulu Plus puts up edited episodes a day after the fact right? Or is it a week delay?

Yeah, you have to watch them on USA and Syfy, otherwise you have to wait a month until they're on the Network. It's as part of their contracts, and Hulu still have first digital rights to those episodes.

Most of Raw is put up asap on WWE's youtube page, same for all the other shows. Matches are often clipped to some degree, but I find it a terribly convenient way to keep up with the B shows (or Raw should I miss it) with a minimal time commitment.

We really need a Network FAQ that includes stuff like "New Raw/Smackdown take 30 days to hit the Network" and "No, you can't cancel, stop trying."
