El Boricua Posted January 18, 2015 Report Posted January 18, 2015 I just did one of their survey's about the network. it's skewed in some areas . I wonder what someone like Harrington would say about it. Out if curiosity, what areas appear skewed. Quote
C.S. Posted January 19, 2015 Report Posted January 19, 2015 Morrison was season 3. I think Dunn is here and there throughout all the seasons. Yeah, I realize he's season 3, but there are a couple of guys who auditioned for earlier seasons, didn't get in, tried again in later seasons and got in then. I thought maybe Morrison was one of them. Quote
iamthedoctor Posted January 19, 2015 Report Posted January 19, 2015 Yeah Dunn was on Tough Enough Season 1. I remember him talking badly about John Morrison / Nitro. Weird, I just watched the first episode of TE Season 1 last night, and I don't remember Morrison being on it. Was it a blink and you miss it thing? That pic of Dunn in the same shot as Mooney. Which show was that from? Quote

I thought maybe Morrison was one of them. He is. He's in the first/tryout episode of series 2 and somebody -- I think Dunn -- dismisses him with words to the effect of calling him a spot monkey.

shoe Posted January 19, 2015 Report Posted January 19, 2015 I just did one of their survey's about the network. it's skewed in some areas . I wonder what someone like Harrington would say about it. Out if curiosity, what areas appear skewed. An example would be they ask you what you watch the most on the network or what's your favorite thing on the network. then they list 12 shows and the other box. So it's not exactly fair if it's not listed.They should have more open ended questions. Quote

Which he still is, to a degree. Quote
MikeCampbell Posted January 20, 2015 Report Posted January 20, 2015 Morrison tried out for season 2 and showed off his gymnastics. JR asked if he can do the Spinaroonie, and John digs his own grave by asking "What's the Spinaroonie?" Quote
C.S. Posted January 21, 2015 Report Posted January 21, 2015 Did anyone watch the Royal Rumble "Lottery" special with Santino? I was under the impression that we'd see wrestlers pick their number for the Rumble. I'm glad that didn't happen, because the surprises are the best part of the match - but what we did get was pretty underwhelming... Santino drew "random" numbers and talked about the significance of each one (e.g. "3" led to a video package about Stone Cold winning three Rumbles, Mick Foley competing three times in one Rumble, etc.). Fun, I suppose, for those people who don't already know all of this stuff. But the stats released on WWE.com each year are usually a lot more detailed. This show barely scratched the surface. The cameo by Kane was easily the best part. Quote
flyonthewall2983 Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 They just added a new card to the "Old School" section, the 1/23/84 MSG show. Quote
iamthedoctor Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 They just added a new card to the "Old School" section, the 1/23/84 MSG show. Are WWE just rereleasing stuff from the 24/7 channel that they used to have? Quote
shoe Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 I'm glad that they put some pre 90's stuff that has some bite to it up. I don't care if it was on 24-7. The house shows are one of the big selling points to me. Quote
Loss Posted January 23, 2015 Report Posted January 23, 2015 Are they full shows or are they still the edited down versions? Quote
iamthedoctor Posted January 24, 2015 Report Posted January 24, 2015 Are they full shows or are they still the edited down versions? Is the original MSG intro music unedited as kinda wondered if it is what the original sounded like. Is it true about WWE scrapping original stuff as a way of a cost cutting measure? Quote
shoe Posted January 24, 2015 Report Posted January 24, 2015 Someone with a Roku can you try to watch No Mercy 99. Mine kicks me off when I try. Quote
pantherwagner Posted January 24, 2015 Report Posted January 24, 2015 Edited They edited out a midget match and Muraco vs Santana even though they refer to the latter in the show description. However Tony Garea vs Jose Luis Rivera was left there in its entirety. That was an odd edit. There's some other show where one of the devices (Android, I think) mentions a Mil Mascaras vs Moondog King match that isn't there either. Not a big deal but it looks like they are recycling descriptions from 24/7 or something. Quote
shoe Posted January 24, 2015 Report Posted January 24, 2015 In the schedule it looks like they're adding a new show called WWE24. The 1st show does a behind the scene look at mania 30. Quote
iamthedoctor Posted January 25, 2015 Report Posted January 25, 2015 When did they stop cropping the shows on the network with PPVs ie those black bars. Quote
Log Posted January 25, 2015 Report Posted January 25, 2015 When did they stop cropping the shows on the network with PPVs ie those black bars. Do you mean old PPVs? If so, they're not cropping them. They were shot in 4:3. The bars are just filling in your 16:9 screen. Quote

They don't use those bars though. That's just your widescreen TV adjusting for a show that was recorded in an aspect ration that isn't quite widescreen. Quote
Loss Posted January 25, 2015 Report Posted January 25, 2015 They went HD in late 2007, and I'm guessing that's when those go away. Quote
PhilTLL Posted January 25, 2015 Report Posted January 25, 2015 I believe on the Network the bars are actually in the video file for SD footage. If you download one you get a 1280x720 mp4 that displays with bars. The first WWE PPV produced in HD was Royal Rumble 2008. Quote
