Never seen that King of the Ring. Excited to see what I assume is the first meeting between Bret Hart and Diesel. Dude that's not even the highlight of the show! I do like that match a lot, though. To me, the crown jewel of KOTR 1994 is Owen vs. 1-2-3 Kid. That sh-t is like 5 minutes, is worked like a Malenko/Mysterio match from Nitro (two years before they had that kind of stuff on Nitro, mind you) and it's AWESOME. Owen vs. 1-2-3 Kid was a badass four minutes.

WWE Countdown at the end of the month will be taking a break and will return in November with new episodes. Since its returning in November before Survivor Series hits, hopefully they have one episode devoted to the event - Top Ten Survivor Series Team Matches. Hopefully they will show the Top Ten Hell In The Cell Matches one before the end of August. I've decided I couldn't wait to see it on the WWE Network so I watched it via VOD this past week.) I wonder what program will taking over the Tuesday 10:00 pm ET-11:00 pm ET time slot. No word if its tag team partner - Wrestlemania Rewind - is sticking around or if that program will be taking a break as well.
In October, the WWE Network will premiere a new series "Rivalries" featuring a documentary-like look at classic rivalries from the company's history. So its just going to be an hour-long documentary? - sigh, when I first heard it, thought they may include a complete match from the rivalry. Guess they want it to be different from Wrestlemania Rewind. Wonder if on premiere night, they will show the WWE Countdown-Top Ten Riveting Rivalries as a lead-in? Add the three hour documentary from the WWE DVD/Blu-Ray - "25 Greatest Rivalries" and you could have a "Rivalries" night on the WWE Network.

I loved that match as a little kid and when I got the Coliseum Video in 2002 (family recorded OVER THAT PPV... ers) I had forgotten most of the card and then that match came on again I was like sh-tting rainbows. I love that match. They had a better match in four or so minutes than most guys have in twenty.

My network stream was great all day but up to half an hour ago it got to where it won't play anything for longer than a few minutes. I hope it gets better by the time Summer Slam starts.

Watching the network live stream now and there's a fluff piece where the NXT divas talk about past and present divas they admire etc. And man, some of those NXT divas look awful. Bayley's horrendous-looking at the best of times, but for the others it has to be the fault of the makeup/lighting people -- or WWE's standards are slipping. Alexa Bliss still looks incredible though. Im new to having the network. Will I be able to start the PPV from beginning later tonight? Yes, definitely on consoles. I don't know about PC, the livestream's always weird on PC for me.

Live stream is horrible right now. I haven't had any issues with it previously.

Apparently some people really were blacked out from watching SummerSlam if they hadn't renewed their network memberships yet? Mine hasn't renewed, but it let me watch it fine.

had issues with the live stream for SummerSlam . eveything,includin the pre-show,was fine. even the "Warninr,unauthorized users" and intro was fine. then,literally right after the Hogan segment,it all went to crap!
- image got blocky and SERIOUSLY pixelated. like,the worst it's ever gotten.
- it "disconnected" me,for lack of a better term, 4 times! like I was watching,then it just went back to the main menu screen! had to keep hitting play over and over to get back on...would work for a minut or so,the disconnected again!
- froze twice,during the Divas Title match, then the SOUND would restart up fine,but the picture would stay frozen.hitting the refresh button only brought up a Quicktime symbol. had to exit out of the PPV and restart it again.
... have to say,after that second restart in the Divas match,it worked near perfectly after that, only pixilated twice more and resolved itself quickly,and froze once during the Orton-Reigns match,but again resolved itself quickly. I refuse to believe these are any issues on my end,as I've bben watching the Network on my I-Pad for days now,tons of PPV's on the VOD section,and not any single issue at any point. they really need to fix the live stream situation once and for all already. most of the PPV was fine,but the first 25 minutes or so were nothing but sheer frustration!

I did see that a lot of people had issues with it. My brother and sister had a rough time early on. They called me to see how mine was and mine was fine. I had it skip back once or twice but it was honestly my BEST stream ever. On previous shows, I would get poor quality in the early matches, but then I switch from Roku to PS4 or vise versa and it fixes. Tonight, I watched on the Roku and it was damn near perfect.

Im thinking of buying the network when it becomes available in the UK. I know this has prob been answered a million times but to save me reading through all 191 pages can someone just confirm that i will get to see Raw and Smackdown live every week because i havent got sky sports.

Raw and Smackdown do not air live on the WWE Network due to their TV deals. The channels that air those shows won't allow it to stream on the Network because they would lose money, but the WWE would lose a TON of money on advertising. When it comes to Raw and Smackdown, there's a 30 day wait for it to arrive on the Network. You do get Main Event, NXT, Superstars, the PPVs obviously, This Week in WWE and a ton of other stuff though.

RAW & SmackDown are aired on a 30-day delay. Keep in mind, once the network launches in the UK, the live stream programming will likely air in accordance with USA Eastern Time.

If it's the same as the US network, then no, you won't. In the US, Raw and Smackdown have TV/Hulu deals that mean they can't go on the network until 30 days after broadcast. The UK network might be different, seeing as Sky show NXT, Main Event etc, which are exclusive to the WWE Network in the US.

This is the first time my stream looked this way since WrestleMania. That's exactly my situation. I've had no problems with quality til last night. But like I said the second half of the show was flawless.
