DMJ Posted May 3, 2014 Report Posted May 3, 2014 I believe in the stockholder's meeting they announced they will be adding all the Clashes soon. Can't wait. I think there's a 2-outta-3 falls match between Flair and Eaton in the early 90s that I remember absolutely loving as a kid that I can't wait to see again and also one show where Sting gets taken out early by Cactus Jack or Abdullah the Butcher, then wrestles Rick Rude later in the night, and, again, as a kid, I thought it was the best wrestling storyline ever done. Man, I miss being 8 years old, but god bless the time machine that is the Network. Quote
flyonthewall2983 Posted May 3, 2014 Report Posted May 3, 2014 Surprised they are putting them up first and not SNME. Quote
Corona Posted May 3, 2014 Report Posted May 3, 2014 As things stand, the Network is brilliant for when you don't really care what you watch, but if you're searching for something specific, it's a nightmare. Particularly, it's rubbish when the show hasn't been chaptered and you have to fast forward and guess where in the card a match is likely to be. I don't like how the chaptering specifically spoils the ends of matches, too. Quote
goc Posted May 3, 2014 Report Posted May 3, 2014 Just skip looking at every other chapter to avoid the spoilers. I don't know if that's harder to do on a Roku or PS3 but it's pretty simple on my PC. Quote
victory Posted May 3, 2014 Report Posted May 3, 2014 The Roku doesn't have any chapters, so it's just a fast forward guess. Hopefully down the road they have a skip to the match option. Quote

C.S. Posted May 3, 2014 Report Posted May 3, 2014 I don't think you are getting a second season. Why not? If enough people are watching it (and I have no idea about any of the data), I could very well see it happening. Tough Enough is coming back, so anything's possible. I watched the Iron Sheik/Andre episode of Legends of Wrestling. I had actually seen it before, on DVD, and it's still probably the best episode they've ever done. For the most part, all they do is tell awesome road stories for an hour. I highly, highly recommend it. I wish every roundtable was as good as this one. Quote

The Chief Posted May 3, 2014 Report Posted May 3, 2014 Where was it announced that Tough Enough is returning? Quote
flyonthewall2983 Posted May 4, 2014 Report Posted May 4, 2014 Seems to me like NXT makes a return of this show redundant and unnecessary. Quote
goc Posted May 4, 2014 Report Posted May 4, 2014 Not really sure why you think that. NXT and Tough Enough are completely different concepts. Quote

I had never seen that episode until recently and it's great. They don't shy away from telling road stories that nowadays you couldn't touch. No way you could get PS Hayes on any new shows laughing off his number of DUI's or telling drug use stories. The beauty of Legends of Wrestling is that it was a show that flew completely under the McMahon radar and doesn't have the fingerprints of anybody in the family. On the other hand their two most recent roundtables are overproduced and overscripted sounding corporate products that are lack the casual conversation feeling of the old roundtables. Quote
flyonthewall2983 Posted May 4, 2014 Report Posted May 4, 2014 The Warrior roundtable looked frankly uncomfortable. Literally uncomfortable as they looked all crammed in there. Quote

If enough people are watching it (and I have no idea about any of the data), I could very well see it happening. According to the WWE's top 10 they release during RAW it has been the number 1 most watched show every week, and Ep 1 was number three during its second week. The Network is clearly aiming to attract a kind of superfan that is a different type of superfan to the one that posts here and "Original Content" seems to be a key component in their strategy. I have absolutely no idea why would anyone want to watch pre and post shows for freaking Raw when it feels like boot camp to get through it most weeks. Nevermind Smackdown (does anything relevant ever happen there?). But the shows seem to be popular. Quote
pantherwagner Posted May 4, 2014 Report Posted May 4, 2014 The Warrior roundtable looked frankly uncomfortable. Literally uncomfortable as they looked all crammed in there. I thought so as well. The chairs don't look comfortable either. Definitely not like in the days of Tazz reclining in his chair while smoking a big ass cigar. Quote
Matt D Posted May 4, 2014 Report Posted May 4, 2014 I pretty much agree with all that entirely. They can't book him like Rey Mysterio the Champion. Quote
shoe Posted May 5, 2014 Report Posted May 5, 2014 They have added a header for the Clash Of Champions shows. Quote
Bix Posted May 5, 2014 Report Posted May 5, 2014 They have added a header for the Clash Of Champions shows. Which section? I'm not seeing anything. Quote
shoe Posted May 5, 2014 Report Posted May 5, 2014 They have added a header for the Clash Of Champions shows. Which section? I'm not seeing anything. It's now gone. They had all the years listed from 1988 to 1997. The only shows loaded up were the 1st 2 from 1988. Quote
shoe Posted May 5, 2014 Report Posted May 5, 2014 Now it's back. I'm a Roku user and it's under the vault section. Quote
Petey Posted May 5, 2014 Report Posted May 5, 2014 It's also listed in the Vault section on the website. Quote
