Any reason why Raw episode 6 is missing still? Hasn't been put up on the network since day one.

It was there at some point, I definitely know that. I remember because it had the sitdown interview between Hogan and Vince as well as the Mega Maniacs + Jimmy Hart interview seen here: http://prowrestling.wikia.com/wiki/February_22,_1993_Monday_Night_RAW_results

Not sure why they would remove it, though.

I really enjoy the hart hbk DVD. I have half a mind to compare what Bret says in the first interview to what he wrote in his book and see if there's any big differences.

With Nitro not starting until June I don't even know if that's the case. It seems like they've rushed this (which is amazing considering how long they've been working on a network.) When you had to put up WWE on Demand versions of content just to get it up and fulfill one of your promises, it's a sign stuff just isn't ready. I'm giving it another week trial and then most likely picking it up after that, but the back catalog feels so sparse compared to UFC Fight Pass.

I personally don't mind the classic Raws/Smackdowns being staggered. I just wish it was more organized and logical. I think it would be great if they did something like Saturday mornings they would air the Raw/Smackdowns back to back from that week in 2001 or whatever, and do a do it week to week in real time kind of. And then another day of the week do the same thing, but pick it up in another year.

I would be overwhelmed if every show was there. As someone who has every Raw and Nitro on my computer, and tried to watch them all chronologically, I got burned out quickly.

It would be silly for them to put up everything, but the complete lack of any Nitros and territorial content other than WCCW (which is being put up out of order) is frustrating.

I see what you mean, but Dave did say they would be putting up more content when the free trial is over. At the time, he and everyone else assumed the free trial would go away after one week but it didn't. That would lead me to assume he was confused over some information about when the trial would end, but that the content update would be accurate.

Am in the only one that thinks the free trial continued because WWE expected more people to sign up in week 1? Or even, they didn't expect many people to cancel!

I think it was more that there were a lot of technical difficulties/ non-existent apps week 1 and they want to show people again now it's more stable

Episodes of RAW aren't going up staggered; they're adding a new episode every day of the work week (I don't think they add new ones on the weekend). They're up to like episode 24 now, every morning at 9 or 10 AM.

I'm assuming they'll start adding episodes of Nitro (and maybe Thunder) when they kick off the Monday Night War series.

Every time I see Goatse, I think of Maureen. That's the last thing I saw. Before I blacked out. The sight of that man's anus.

so the new countdown of greatest betrayals is pretty great. Still waiting for a countdown that doesn't have HHH on it somewhere though.

Now I want to watch that show they're hyping (in June 1994), even though I know it's going to be awful outside of Sabu vs Cactus Jack. Video exists but it's not on the Network since it wasn't a PPV. Can't find it anywhere.

Not yet. Just old ECW television from '94, WCCW episodes, and some '70s and '80s matches from MSG and the Boston Garden.

I thought they had reached some sort of agreement. Maybe I just imagined that.

At least they have the Championship Wrestling from Florida library, which should be good if it is in good shape.

Yeah. I remember hearing Dutch Mantell talk about how they would re-record over their 3/4" inch or Beta tapes because how expensive they are. When Memphis went under I think there were four or five claimants for the tape library including Lawler, Jerry Jarrett, Cory Macklin and Vince.

WCW and ECW had some talent sharing agreement around 94-95. Bobby Eaton popped up in ECW a couple of times as well.

Just watched two of my favorite moments from 2013. CM Punk and Daniel Bryan vs the Shield ending with a Shield and Wyatts standoff, then the giant 12 man tag involving the Wyatts and Shield. The commentary team actually marks out when they start coming to blows. And the best part is Harper and Ambrose both trying to sneak attack each other at the same time. For all the problems with the main event scene, 2013 was a great year for matches, especially tag matches.
