1234 Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I'm signed up now as well. Worth it just for the old PPV's, let alone the current ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Self Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 <p>I liked Elimination Chamber. I hope they recognise what a workhorse Rollins is in the Shield, and they don't just forget about him when that crew break up. He was great in the 6-man. Reigns had his epic moments, and Ambrose was a fun novelty as a crazy babyface, but Rollins is the guy who held the match together.Harper's impressing me too. He's an indy guy, so I automatically like him a bit, but his facial expressions were so wonderfully weird.</p><p> </p><p> Chamber was decent. Orton is my favourite wrestler in the world right now. I don't know what 'it' is, but he gets 'it'. Telling a story with his face, his body language. Music between the notes. Daniel Bryan is becoming a little one-note to me. 90% little kicks. </p><p> </p><p> New Age Outlaws are ace. Billy was a little out of position in places, but Road Dogg was a champ.</p><p> </p><p> Does AJ think she's good? Maybe it's a testament to her promo ability, but I really believed she thinks she's talented in the ring. Like she was out of Cameron's league. She was dire. Can't bump and feed. Doing moves her opponent can't handle, making them both look bad... Terrible. I hope Tamina kicks her again and takes the title.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

christmas_ape Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 <p>Anyone from the UK or just in general not from the US got the network running fine? Made an account with a random fake US postcode but then used my paypal. It's let me get the trial but still says 'Media Error: video not available' everytime I try something. Going to leave it now because apparently a lot of people got that and it sorted itself out in time.</p><p> </p><p> Edit: okay just seen this talked about a bit on the last page, still interested if many have got it properly working and if people think it will be good to use. Really hope I can watch Wrestlemania on it.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaysin Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 The US is their target audience and therefore more of a priority. Their servers aren't able to handle the initial US frenzy, there would have been no way they would have handled a day one world wide launch. Plus, I'm sure like Netflix, they need to set up deals in other countries, but like I said, the US is more of a priority. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayW Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I'm in the UK and have the Network working on my iPad so long as I have a VPN active, but I cannot get it working on my PC at all. With or without my VPN, I click a video, it loads the page, but doesn't load the video at all. It doesn't even load the Error Message that other people seem to be getting. Ah well I'll give it to the end of the week and see where we are at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Final Countdown Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 <p>Just watched the '98 Survivor Series, which I went to and hadn't seen since. Not a great show from an actual in-ring standpoint, but I love the story told throughout the tournament.</p><p> </p><p> At some points during the show they would bleep out "WWF", and at other points they wouldn't.

I think it's simply that they can't predict the kind of traffic they may get, so launching in one area first and then branching out later is a better business choice. It means they can iron out the kinks and problems they may have over the next few months before making a decision on launching over seas.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the wait is to see how big server they believe they will need. Knowing the traffic from (what should be) the US alone will give them some indication of how big a server will need to be to give other countries access too. Like Jaysin says also music rights are probably playing a part too.</p><p> </p><p> Hopefully we only have to wait until the back end of this year for a service here, and by the time it's available here hopefully it'll be content rich with past TV episodes and such.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
