Today on Sky Sports 3 in the U.K it's WWE Day!!! Bottom Line, Afterburn, Experience, Heat, last week's RAW and SD! are all being showed today.
And this all comes to a head with the replay of No Way Out tonight at 9, for anybody that hasn't seen it yet (ie me).
So if any of you guys missed anything from RAW or SD! this week you can watch it over and over again!!!
That's if you haven't already seen Little Boogy, MVP's elbow, Trump and McMahon or RAW's 8 man tag match 10 times already. Want to know how the ECW Title match came about? Well look no further than Sky Sports 3....FOR FREE!!

The PPV repeats they used to show annoyed the crap out of me - lots of crowd cutaway shots and blurring and advert breaks, damn them. It especially annoyed the crap out of me when my uncle would forget to tape the PPV live and i'd have to get the crappy repeat version.
I used the word crap too often there, sorry.

Channel 4's coverage was worse though. Live adverts - not a good idea.

Yea, they eventually learned from that mistake though by showing them on a delay so they didn't just cut out while stuff was going on (i think!) - I still haven't heard all of The Rock's Royal Rumble 2000 thanks to Channel 4!

The Channel 4 coverage of wwf was terrible yes (remember The UK exclusive commentary lmao) but it made a crap load of new UK fans I remember being at school the day after the Royal Rumble and everyone was talking about it like it was the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Heat on Channel 4 was good though. Nice slot on a sunday afternoon usually. HHH was on it, Angle was on it. Heck i remember a main event with Booker vs. Edge during the Invasion.

I seem to be one of the minority in that I miss PPVs (and just wrestling in general) on C4. I can't afford to get Sky, much less the sports package which is what drives me absolutely crazy about it slowly monopolising sports coverage in Britain, wrestling included. It's not really free, as you've got to cough up for the Sky fees and the extra for the sports channels. I see zero current wrestling not on YouTube or whatever because I can't afford to pay for Sky. Sorry, but I had to get that out.

Yep, that's back when Heat used to be mildly entertaining. I remember Triple H vs. Perry Saturn on there one week, as well as Kurt Angle vs. Crash Holly, which was actually a pretty good match.

I loved the Channel 4 WWF coverage.
Best of all was Friday night WCW on Channel 5, though.

Zybsko on commentary was gold.
But remember even further back to the early 90's when WCW was on ITV on Saturday afternoon? :-D

I remember watching Cactus Jack: Lost in Cleveland, I thought Cleveland was a made up place (I was 5, I was dumb) lol.
I also remember being scared of Max Pain(sp?) and marking out for Johnny B. Badd.
Damn I was a stupid kid
