They put stuff on Demand rather promptly especially PPVs.

The sheer amount of content loaded in HD and in a pretty short time frame is amazing. I'm thoroughly enjoying the service.
I used to only watch the (nearly unwatchable) three hours of Raw per week. I easily watch 20 hours a week of WWE content now that I have the network. I'm immersed in the current product and am catching up on things I never saw, like PPVs I never bought. I'm pretty sure that's what WWE had in mind when they launched this thing.

The only groans I have about the Network are very minor.
The layout on the web/Xbox I don't really like and I wish we could make playlists. I'd like a "random PPV" or a "random anything" button aswell as I'm forever wasting time on thinking what to watch then selecting something then changing my mind within seconds. On the grand scheme of things these are meaningless. Quality wise I've only ever had one issue and that was during Summerslam for about 5 seconds where the screen froze.
For what it is - £6 when converted into GBP then I can't moan about a single thing because a PPV alone over here is £15. I easily watch 20+ hours of Network content a week. I'm delighted for what I get for my money.

Literally the only thing I can find to complain about is the lack of chapters on the Xbox 360. Also 95% of the time it forgets if I've watched a part of a show and always starts from the beginning.
I suppose another complaint/flaw would be no chromecast support from the main site/app.
Otherwise I love it. Wrestling 24/7, it's a dream come true.

the only criticism I have is there isn't a recently watched list or something like that or a list to save to watch later. I love the selection so far and know there is more to come

You can kinda fudge Chromecast support if you have a specific phone model. The Chromecast app on Android can now mirror the phone's screen to the TV for a few phones and it works pretty well for WWE Network. |

It really is amazing. As much as we can all complain about certain things/features not being there, it really is the best invention to ever happen to wrestling fans.
The original documentaries are pretty great also. They are some of the best work the WWE has ever done.

All these reasons above are why I hope they stick with it.

NXT is awesome.
Though they took a month off I loved the every Raw in order thing they were doing.

I can't see them ever get rid of TV deals as apart from revenue, it's exposure. TV is easily the best advert they have. It's likely how we all came across wrestling in the first place. |

I will always consider them worth it for bypassing the WWF mention/logo ban. There's the Benoit thing too, not that I care or anything but if you like completion...
Plus their posts of the WCW PPVs restore a lot of the music that were not mainstream songs.

Yes, by all accounts it is part of their contracts with the networks.

As said before, my only gripe is that I wish there was a playlist option now. I'd love to watch shows to PPV uninterrupted.

If I was a young wrestling fan growing up today like I was in the late 80's/early 90's, I would never leave the house thanks to the Network.

While I may hate today's product and most of the wrestlers, the Network has given me a chance to watch the wrestling I love whenever I want.
It also brought Monday Night Nitro back into my life.
