The Swanton825 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Ive had the network now for about 4 months so they cant hate on all the commonwealth. That was probably out of mercy for what Aussies have to pay for video games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basmat01 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 That was probably out of mercy for what Aussies have to pay for video games. Well I do hate paying $100 for a game. The exchange rate was so bad at one stage I was paying like $60-$65 for a copy of TEW. although I dont pay $9.99 for the network I pay like $14 because of the exchange rate.

Macca316 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Americans insist on removing the letter "u" from words that originally have the letter in. You also refer to chips as fries and crisps as chips. Strange folk I'm honestly a little gutted that I couldn't sign up for the Network tonight, but I know I can wait, hopefully it won't be too long a wait, though. A little explanation wouldn't have gone a miss, even if they just blamed it on technical difficulties. Ah well. And don't get me started on Peanut butter and Jelly... JELLY!?! JELLY!?! I think you'll find its Jam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Togg Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I've had the Network in the UK since it launched in the US, they haven't gone to great lengths to prevent that happening, and after the rumours of the UK getting a watered-down version of the Network when/if it does launch, I'll probably stick to that anyway. Whats the secret? i have a VPN so i can already do the American Netflix and so on. Doesnt the network require a credit/debit card to be in the states?

Jelly is something served at little kids parties which is usually nuclear in colour and is set... Jam is and has alway will be something that is spread on toast or sandwiches. Although I will preface my opinions by saying I'm not English, I'm Scottish... Scotland is a land of such delicacies of Deep Fried Mars bar, Deep Fried Pizza and Haggis so my opinions on what is food or what classifactions food falls under may be slightly off lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tying it back to wrestling, nice to see the WWE use the Network for exciting post-RAW stuff. Stuff that should really be able to be seen worldwide by now.

I would feel robbed by this if I was a current viewer of the WWE product, solely because I would have been robbed of being distracted from Rusev's matches by Lana... I don't have Sky, can't be bothered with VPN's and was excited for a UK launch of the Network so I could watch again. Robbed I tell ye... robbed.

Blackman Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 "All right, let's bring back Ryback already. He's been out of screen enough. And let's slap some crappy pyros on him to hype it up". I wonder whether he'll be a part of the SS match. I'd like to see him, but it's probably too soon. And then there was the footage of Trips scouting him so we can hope. Anyhow, I've seen enough Tyson O'Neal for the rest of the month. "I'm so betrayed I can't even explain how betrayed I was" Great comeback, Show.

I use Hola (with Firefox because it doesn't work on Chrome) to make it think I'm connecting from the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djthefunkchris Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Anyone else see the Xavier Woods promo from RAW? That was......odd. Kind of like it. It's a new day, and the FUNK is back!! Seriously though, with the rise in popularity of James Brown (recently) thanks to a hit movie, I would love if he could really imitate some of that. He seems kind of bookwormy/square/geek to be able to pull it off, but if he can, kudos to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to use a program to make WWE think I connected from the US so I could pay with paypal, but no succes. All in all, this RAW was pretty awesome imo. Great setup for Survivor Series, which is my favorite PPV by far. It was blurry from a face/heel perspective, but that's a good thing.

But, Xavier did a lot of funky type stuff as Consequences Creed in TNA and now that he shows more confidence in his performances he'd probably be pretty believable.

Kitarzu Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Speaking of decisions, why don't link the San Francisco Giants YES! chants to Daniel Bryan? Just because is it something not planned? It seems, from different points of view, extremely idiotic to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milamber Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I enjoyed Raw. The best parts were Kidd beating Sheamus, Ziggler vs Rollins and everything involving Orton. And we finally got a clean main event finish. It feels like years since that last happened. I called Rusev being US champ months ago so I'm happy about that.

Teh_Showtime Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 As someone who thinks Kane should have retired 5 years ago, that gif really is a summary of his character as of late. It's almost comical watching him become the smallest of villains. He's like the level 2 enemy of a platformer. Not quite goomba but still easy enough to pass with your eyes closed It was cool to do something new but Kane (along with a couple other guys) could be gone forever starting tomorrow and I wouldn't care either way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtplaystew Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 I've read a lot of cynicism with WWE-visionist history playing a big part of the depiction of WCW on the network. Most of you guys seem to feel like WWE doesn't give them enough credit. I honestly disagree. With all due respect to WCW Monday Nitro circa mid 1996, it was an unwatchable show if Scott Hall and Kevin Nash weren't on it. Only children and the most hardcore of adults fans could sit through a full episode of that crap. Sting got cool towards the end of that year, but all this talk of "They were kicking out butts creatively" is absurd. They had one concept and did something very cool with it. The rest of WCW's card, even as the years went on, was mostly garbage. The cruiserweights and the Flock and some cool midcard stories make for good memories, but we forget the rest of the garbage that flooded those horrendous two and then three hours. Raw was trash too, don't get me wrong. Right before oth companies hit their biggest heights they were both doing pretty bad TV from top to bottom. The two companies were basically guilty of the same exact thing at the time: A well developed main event picture and a horrible underdeveloped everything else. Things got better for them once they both started ripping off ECW but that's another rant entirely. TL;DR: WCW sucked just as bad as WWF when Hall and Nash first jumped ship. No more. No less.
