Looking at the free Network, it's terrible. You can probably get most of the same stuff on WWE's own youtube, let alone from users. 3 months of Raw/SD a month behind, a couple of Network originals, and those shytty best of collections that air on FS2 or some shyt where they stretch 4:3 footage to 16:9 to the point where I saw Hogan/Andre and you literally can't even see the mat in the hard cam shots. And since most of the collections are pre-HD era, they all look like shyt. You can't even watch 205. Any of it. Not even with a delay. None of the vault footage is available at all, except Rumbles and WMs for the past couple of years.

You would think they'd have the first couple eps of everything open to get you hooked and want to keep watching, or maybe even do rotating content like this week/month is X promotion shows from Y year, but instead all they give you is their weakest content and then expect you to get excited to pay for the good shyt. Plus you still have to sign up with an email so they can endlessly blast your spam folder 300 times a month. :picard:

WWF 1998 Judgement day was a cool little watch.

Billy gunn gotta be the most underrated athlete of that time period. Dude really hit a hurricarana.:ehh:

Main event was red hot. Everybody had a bad ass entrance & the crowd going nuts.:wow:

Out of all the great things about the attitude era that undertaker/ kane dynamic was always a favorite to watch.:ohlawd:

Watching some of the footage from the early 90s, like 92' - 95'

Vince kills me with his play-by-play...

Biiiiiiiiiig back body drop! .... Scoop....slam down on the canvas!
...one ..two and he got hi....no! kickout ....
...wait a minute, wait a minute...here comes Savio Vega....pummeling away on Bam Bam...
...oh wow! look at this capacity crowd here at the Boston Civic Center......ladies and gentlemen this capacity crowd is on it's feet! ...

His voice always sounded like he had been punched in the stomach.

Man who the fukk is this guy Piper was boxing on Nitro 3/3/97 it was like they were legit going at each other it was really bizarre :dwillhuh: This is actually my first time watching this. Piper's trying to pick a team to fight the NWO. This whole segment is trash. Am I watching WCW 2000 instead of WCW in its "prime" in 97???

That whole segment is absolute bizarre, and there's zero chance anyone but Piper came up with it and no one was allowed input on it. Really, there's a lot of just flat out weird angles and promos surrounding Piper's entire WCW run.
