The WWE Network Is LIVE

Another cool thing is each PPV has what can be loosely described as chapter selections. On the bar that shows you where you are time wise, there are various dots. If you hover the mouse over a dot, it says either what the match happening there is or who wins (bad if you don't want spoilers but nice idea).
 
I hope he did not mean shows like WM Rewind, etc. That would be a letdown to not have actual wrestling docs.
 
I'm in.

So yeah, it works from Germany and other parts of the world.

Some more "lies":
- new RAWs and SmackDowns will only be added after 30 days have passed
- there's a lot more censoring, e.g. the first Barely Legal apparently has another intro
- some music (and accompanying crowd reaction) is changed, but that was to be expected (e.g. Starrcade 97 Voodoo Child)
 
You can jump to moments through the search, such as Edge spearing Cena to win his first title.

SIde note: they DON'T do black and white for blood on here.
 
Yeah, I can live with it. I'm a bit more annoyed by false advertising itself, but it's a wrestling company after all.
 
I was in about 30 minutes before the launch went down, so I seemed to have better luck than most people. It's hit and miss right now for certain content. I can watch the live stream just fine, but accessing PPVs I can't seem to watch more than a few minutes at a time before a 5-6 minute freeze/buffer.

I'm cool with today. I pretty much expected this to happen. I'm actually surprised I've been able to watch as much as I have. I gotta say, the new shows are a huge step above the 3 minute YouTube videos they put together. I've only seen the countdown catchphrases one so far, but I really enjoyed it. Dozens upon dozens of interviews with various people. They put a lot of time into it.

Also pleased with some of the random stuff they added under the radar. There's a handful of ECW Hardcore TV episodes. A few classic MSG shows from the 70s and 80s. Also, even though they didn't have eto do this, every episode of Raw and Smackdown from 2013 is already available. So it's easy to catch up with the product now if you need to, I assume was the goal.

There's more stuff now than there was when I signed up this morning. So they are obviously adding things consistently, even if it's just things to play on the live stream day-to-day. I really like that the 24/7 stream is going to have WCCW and ECW TV, and random other things during the odd hours of the day.
 
Everything seems to be working fine on my PS3. I'm pretty pleased that I signed up for it.

What I am reading is what I kinda expected. That's why I am going to wait a few weeks hoping that WWE fixes whatever bugs may be there but still have it in time for Mania. What I really worry about is how viewing the ppv's will be. You can pretty much expect everyone who has the network to be watching the ppv's live and with all those people streaming at the same time I hope that won't effect the quality of the stream. I can't think of anything worse than having to deal with buffering during the main event matches at Mania.
 
Tried it this morning but it was wonky and I had to go. Things seem to be slowly getting smoothed out, so I'll give it another whirl later. Honestly NXT Arrival is the only thing I'm really looking forward to at the moment so I'm not sweating it. Just as easy to pop in a DVD or VHS for the old stuff.
