July 2, 201411 yr comment_5610610 So it looks like Monday they start putting up the Saturday Night Main Events.
July 2, 201411 yr comment_5610635 Excellent news. What's frustrating about the Network is that it'd be so easy to placate the people looking for older content. A monthly drop like this would keep everyone busy until the next one.
July 2, 201411 yr comment_5610637 WWE does well-produced video packages for different wrestlers during Black History Month, yet I don't expect to see a comparable two-minute video explaining the history and appeal of SNME and showing various clips, wrapping up by saying that the entire archive is now available on the WWE Network. I don't understand why they aren't doing something like that for different archival content that is on the network every single week.
July 2, 201411 yr comment_5610723 I'm guessing it's because they want to set standards low for the current product? If they showed clips of old shows, People would see how much better it was than today and watch those instead of the current stuff. I don't know why they don't do it either.
July 3, 201411 yr comment_5610810 No shit, given all of the various filler segments they do on RAW just sixty seconds to show Hulk Hogan rescuing Macho Man from the Honky Tonk Man and saying "Saturday Night's Main Event" is now on WWE Network seems like something that could both be super easy to program in and you know, promote the fucking network.
July 3, 201411 yr comment_5610814 That's really a great idea. A sort of This Week or Today in WWE History, with a few clips, and then a quick message saying that you can see them on the WWE Network. Edit: Or make it Today or This Week in Wrestling History, and they can also promote ECW, WCW, AWA, WCCW, etc.
July 3, 201411 yr comment_5610853 You don't even need to cut any new footage: just use the intro scene from the SNME DVD set.
July 3, 201411 yr comment_5610909 Looks like Saturday Nights Main Event is getting pushed back. Instead Monday they're rolling out the Monday Nights War stuff on Monday.
July 4, 201411 yr comment_5610966 I wonder how much this crosses over into why they did a weaker job of building PPVs in recent years - they're too overworked and stretching themselves so thin that the fundamental things that make people want to spend money on wrestling have been forgotten. The only reason they've given anyone to subscribe to the network in the last month is Money in the Bank. Nostalgia is so strong in wrestling fans minds that not doing stuff like a "WWE Network Moment Of The Week" for every Raw, and showing an awesome angle or historic match in clipped form to tease people to get it, or the above SNME idea, is mind-boggling.
July 5, 201411 yr comment_5611116 WWE Network just tweeted that Saturday Night's Main Event was coming this Monday, so it looks like it's still on.
July 5, 201411 yr comment_5611118 Just got this and I'm kind of confused about viewing the old school house shows on this. I read before on here that all the house shows were up but I only see a handful on my iPad app. It would suck if that's all they have since I only got it to watch some early 80's Andre and Backlund matches and don't give a fuck about watching the soap opera shit.
July 5, 201411 yr comment_5611120 Monday night on the live feed there will be a preview of the new Monday Night Wars specials.
July 5, 201411 yr comment_5611125 Just got this and I'm kind of confused about viewing the old school house shows on this.

I think you read something wrong, there is no where near every house show on it. They haven't even put up a new one in forever.
July 5, 201411 yr comment_5611126 I think that by all the house shows are up, that person may have been specifically referring to the Roku finally having all the house shows that are currently up on the Network because the website seemed to have more of them than the Roku for a while.
July 5, 201411 yr comment_5611190 Silly question but is there a chance all the "The Main Event" shows (IE Andre beating Hogan) will not be included in this coming package?
July 5, 201411 yr comment_5611193 I believe matches from those were included in the SNME DVD, so I'd assume they will be included. Always a chance, though.
July 6, 201411 yr comment_5611273 I believe matches from those were included in the SNME DVD, so I'd assume they will be included. Always a chance, though. Yeah, the matches from The Main Event were included so I see no reason why they wouldn't be in this lineup.
July 6, 201411 yr comment_5611294 I still can't believe that the Network on PS3 still hasn't fixed the search feature,. It sucks that only 10 video choices come up. Where is the more or next option for the next 10 videos. Has anyone heard if they're going to fix this?
July 7, 201411 yr comment_5611466 The first 13 SNME's have been added in the vault section. Hopefully the rest are coming soon.
July 7, 201411 yr comment_5611467 I believe they are only on the PC version of the Network. I haven't checked the Roku version but I know they are not on my phone
July 7, 201411 yr comment_5611469 It usually takes a bit before the apps sync up with it. I'm guessing that since only 13 are showing up, they're still in the middle of making the content available.
July 7, 201411 yr comment_5611499 I read that WWE Network is free for a week & accepting sign-ups without needing a credit card to try it out too. So if there's anyone here that hasn't tried it already, now would be the time. I haven't checked myself, since I'm already a member, so I'm not sure the validity of it but thought I would pass the information along.
July 7, 201411 yr comment_5611543 does anyone know if i can pay more money/per month to never have to listen to the network highlight mike tyson in 1998 ever again?
