Not saying its false advertisement just wish they COULD get the right to them so they are all right.

Never said you did, but someone else used that phrase.
It may also not be a matter of WWE simply not paying for them. It could be whomever owns the rights is a) asking for way too much money or b) doesn't want to give permission, even if WWE is offering enough. To assume it's simply WWE's fault isn't right.

Hogan & The Rock from WrestleMania X8 is featured on WrestleMania Rewind tonight. I'm glad they got to it finally!

Just watched Warrior, the ultimate legend. Wow! What a great piece. Definitely up there in my top 5 favorites of all time. ..maybe top 3. I'd recommend everyone to watch it if you haven't yet.

Like ZT said, it's not false advertisement, WWE doesn't have the rights to certain music. That's why they have to dub over all this music, why they have to dub over Thunderkiss 65, Voodoo Child, Freebird, etc. I was surprised that they didn't have the rights to certain WCW music, like DDP's theme music, which I thought WWE had the right to. Sure it sucks cause we would all love to have the original music to everything. I would love to have experienced what ECW was with the original music instead of the dubbed music. I wish WWE could pay money for at least some of the songs, like Voodoo Child. I'm sure it's a bit of a grey area as well, considering you're not directly paying for access to THAT particular show including the music, but rather, the ability to watch it as you see fit. Unlike music streaming services, which license large deals with the major distributors and gain access to the rights of thousands of artists' entire catalogs with just a few deals in place, WWE would have to seek individual contracts, which is probably time consuming and, in the end, futile, given the amount of time the music is actually present. In the beginning, when most of the music was left in unaltered, we speculated that it may be because WWE wasn't selling the content for "ownership". If I buy a DVD with licensed music on it, WWE and the original content owner can't revoke that license on the copy I own. Unless it breaks or I no longer have access to a DVD player, it's mine to use forever. With the Network, they can pull anything they want at any time and we can't do anything about it. They're not directly selling us the specific content (they're selling a service), so therefore, they may not have had to pay the traditional licensing fees. Evidently, that wasn't the case.

Just watched the 1995 Royal Rumble. One word... Mantaur!
In all seriousness,though,it took forever to watch because of all the stops and kick outs. I kept getting an error when I tried to start it for an hour. It sucked.

I'm watching the episode of Legends of Wrestling where they talked about Backlund and Hogan. I gotta say, Mike Graham, god rest his soul, was annoying as f*** on this, especially when it came to Hogan vs. Warrior at Wrestlemania and him saying that Warrior didn't deserve it. When Patterson was going to start talking about Warrior vs. Hogan, Mike tried to interrupt and JR told him to let Patterson finish his story. I have no freaking clue why Mike Graham had to be on this panel.

Tonight's Best of RAW is the episode after the night after WrestleMania 28, which is already on the archive It's not even that one, it's the week after. Where Brock Lesnar and John Cena had to be separated by officials. It's a total cop out because I look forward to Wednesdays when they release an episode of Raw that's new to the archive. Like having Smackdown Xtreme from 2001 was awesome. It should've at least been the March 12th episode from Cleveland with The Rock concert. It's one of the few episodes from 2012 that's not readily available.

They should have done the one with the Rock Concert if they were doing a Best of RAW. See this is my only complaint about the Network, they replay the same thing that's either already on the archive or they replay the new content like NXT and Main Event two, three more times during the week. If they stop with the replays and air more content that hasn't been aired then replay it once, I would have no complaints with the Network cause I am getting my money's worth with the Network, just I don't like when they replay the same thing more than once.

I'm completely with you. Instead of re-airing Backstage Pass or something, I could use a random Raw from 1995. Or some WCW Thunder. Or Sunday Night Heat. Let's really open up the content.

Or if they want to be stingy on the content not yet added. Put up a ppv so we can be reminded of that particular event instead of something we saw for the last three days.

I would love to see random Pay-Per-Views instead of the same ones every single day. Where is Guilty as Charged '99 or WCW Greed instead of Extreme Rules '12 five times?

What they should do is put up the weeks episode of raw or nitro or whatever up to the pay per view and then the next day do the pay per view and the day after do the nitro or raw or whatever afterwards. I also hope we get more like superstar mini docs after each pay per view even if it's jtg sitting at home watching the ppv waiting for his check to come in the mail

I would do the replay for the RAW Backstage Pass on Fridays, and the replay for Smackdown Backstage Pass on Saturday. Since I saw you mention they could air shows like Heat and Thunder, I came up with an idea. They could air one or two Sunday Night Heat episodes like they do with RAW from 93-94 now. Air one or two in chronological order starting in 1998. I would still do the Best of RAWs on Wednesday, but I would air something not already on the archive, or heck they could do something with the app where they put 4-5 episodes that's not on the archive, have the fans vote, whatever episode gets the most votes airs that Wednesday. I would do the Best of Smackdown on Saturdays, same thing I just came up with the Best of RAW, have the fans vote an episode never aired on the Network, one that wins airs that week. The Beyond the Ring documentaries I like that they are on Saturdays, no complaints there except stop replaying the same ones over and over again. Like I said before, I would love for them to also air an old Saturday Night's Main Event on Saturdays, either after Beyond the Ring or at the same time slot they used to air back in the beginning. It doesn't even have to be in order. For WCW, I honestly believe they will wait until the Monday Night Wars series begins to start airing WCW content. If they don't by then, I will be shocked. Since you mentioned Thunder, maybe they could air Thunder episodes on Friday afternoons and Nitro episodes on Monday afternoons before the RAW preshows. There's so much ideas I have to air a lot of content and at what time, but these are the main ideas I just came up with as I was typing.

Hell, even give me some Wrestling Challenge, Metal, Jakked, Shotgun, WCW Saturday Night etc. They were never anything special but it's still a trip down memory lane.
