Just got an email from WWE that they’re finally rolling out the new upgrade for the Network. It should be out for all supported platforms by weeks end

They claim to have improved the search function. I'll believe it when I see it!

I just hope the redo their programming categories because I've always found it really unintuitive.

I’m not subscribed to the Network right now, but I hope the updates improve the Continue Watching queue. Sometimes I would watch a show just to see if WWE changed music used in the original broadcast or made some other edit; then I had to access the desktop version of the Network on my laptop to remove the show(s). Because there’s no way to delete them using the app.
That’s my main hope for WWE Network 2.0: that you’ll be able to do everything from the app.

Like I usually just watch on the PS4 or Xbox One, and I just had Great American Bash 2007 and Backlash 2017 stuck in my “Continue Watching” tab for the longest time. Usually it does it with brand new shows, most recently with episodes of NXT, NXT UK, and Stomping Grounds. Really bugs me. That and the terrible search are really my only two problems. I was trying to find Shane Helms matches from late WCW the other day, and it was giving me mostly Shane McMahon stuff. Which is a decent depiction of the current TV product I guess.

Best name search in the world...… Shane Mcmahon… no offense bud but I just had to say it

I agree, at the very least, it's a bit more organized on the app.
I'm not sure what the "user requested features" are and I can't seem to find a watchlist/queue function or the Hidden Gems category. But optimistic about it so far.
Cool little thing is that your last played or unfinished episode of Raw/Smackdown/NXT automatically shows up on the very top of their respective pages.
The TV rating bumper/fanfare before every new video seems to be gone as well from the few videos I played.
Videos seem to load quicker as well, but that may just be placebo effect.
You can now jump to specific points in the video and browse other episodes in a series (Nitro, in my case) via a menu underneath the video.
Also, you can turn Autoplay on or off via a small gear icon, but no specific queue options that I've seen.
Going from one episode to the other on Autoplay is similar to Netflix, and you are able to cancel the next episode from automatically starting. I watched the Nitro where Hogan and Chuck Zito cut their rambling promo where the reaction shot of Flair and the Horsemen backstage gets randomly cut off before they can react. The next episode began less than three seconds later without an ad or TV rating bumper.

Updated on my ipad. Instantly broke and got an error! Restarted. Clicked Extreme Rules and had German(?) commentary by default for some reason even though the audio was set to English. Clicked it to another language and back to English and it's fine haha.

Well, they finally have the option to select specific matches or segments during a show on mobile. Will make my Raw and Nitro watch-thrus go quicker lol

It seems more confusing to navigate the menus. Any watchlist updates? Seems less streamlined for finding shows. Might take getting used to.

Still no update for me. Just getting a "FATAL ERROR" when I try anything.

Man...I was trying to make a dent in my Watchlist and now I can't get back in. I'm sure that it'll get fixed soon, but I was on a roll, man!

I've downloaded the updates on my phone and on Roku. Looks far sleeker.
