If they really plan on Cena/Taker and Orton/Batista, I hope they're smart enough to put Cena/Taker on last or else half the stadium will be empty for the title match.

I want more ECW style flaming baseball bats, Sandman beatdowns and Terry Funk screaming like a fly trapped in Mick Foley's barbed wire spiders web which is also on fire.

Give me what I want, Vince!

Let me get this straight,

If I pay WWE $10 a month I will get to watch:
1) All years PPVs
2) Most WCW PPVS
3) Most WCW PPVs
4) Uncensored footage
5) Old WWE/WWF PPVs
6) Past episodes of RAW and Ntiro
7) Any where in the world, no USA restriction

If that is true, not sure why every one is complaining . I do not watch much current wrestling, but even though I will sign up. Thats cheaper than buying 1 PPVs each month.

update: I tried to check if I can register, but it looks like its a US only thing. Then they cry "Pirating, Pirates, Pirating, illegal, Pirating Pirates"....

even Lebron James makes the WWE Network ad....

He posted the following in one of his site today:

Always wanted to be the WWE Heavyweight World Champion so today I surprised my teammates with their own for their collection. And by the way it's a Great time to be a @WWE fan with the launch of #WWENetwork #LoveMyTeammates #WWEStandOutAsAKid #StriveForGreatness

Thanks for posting that! For years, I've always felt that Lebron has treated his career no differently than a WWE superstar by turning from face to heel as much as he has.. This pic at least supports his familiarity with the product.. Awesome stuff!

I do not watch much current wrestling, but even though I will sign up.

The #1 reason why the WWE Network will succeed - so long as they iron out the streaming issues.

@ J T - That's just....WOW!

Holy crap, that Shield match was awesome! I like the high pace both teams kept throughout the match. I also like how they are focusing on matches rather than video packages so far tonight on Raw.

[jmbarnes101]

Raw sucked. The Mania card is looking awful. Nobody wants Bryan/Triple H, they want Bryan in the title match instead of Boo-Tista and "boring" Orton. Batista should have come back to face Lesnar(and actually gotten his lazy ass in good cardio shape). Bryan should be facing Orton for the belt, and Taker should have been booked to face Cena, despite how much I hate that neon green wearing idiot. That should have been your Mania card. I came up with that in 2 minutes, making me smarter than WWE's entire creative team

Elimination Chamber kind of sucked too, even though the Shield/Wyatt family match was amazing and the Chamber match itself was pretty good. The show as a whole though...bleh. I actually watched it through a free internet stream, and I didn't sign up for the network either. They're not getting my money, this company that keeps flipping off its fans. That Shield/Wyatt family match though, goddamn that was good, match of the year contender.

And my god, can Cena get off his high horse with his I'm the best and nobody will make it in the WWE unless they go through me garbage. Obnoxious, arrogant prick. And he's supposed to be a babyface? Seriously? He sounded more like an arrogant heel tonight

Oh, and I guess Batista is John Cena 2 with his, "I appreciate the fans voicing their opinions, even if it means booing me" nonsense. I'm sure the announcers will eventually start calling him "controversial" to cover for his boos just like they do with Cena

God I hate you WWE

I admit most, 98%, of WWE has stunk for a long time but if the ending to last nights Raw didn't do anything for you maybe the WWE has passed you by. Cena vs Taker? Yuck! Do you really want him ending the streak? It also looks like we might be getting Cesaro vs Swagger as well. I certainly hope not as I'd love to see Cesaro vs Angle. Match of the year contender their.

As for Mr. Yes movement, I'm getting tired of the masses acting like he's The Mesiah or the second coming, they have plans. The rumors right now are that he'll face HHH, when he decides to accept the challenge, and if he wins he'll get access to the Wrestlemania main event. Their has been a change regarding Mr. Yes over the past couple weeks and most insiders now are stating they know he needs the title, if only to shut everyone up about it, and their isn't a better place to give it to him then Wrestlemania.

WWW Network is free for a week. No money going to their coffers unless you don't cancel by Sunday night.

None of the insiders are saying what you said. You just made that up. REAL insiders still believe he won't get the belt at Mania. He's just been given the match that Punk was going to have because Punk is gone now. Get your facts straight...like I always do.

Cena vs Taker is better than Brock vs Taker because people would actually believe the Streak is in danger. Cena is the ONLY guy who can accomplish that. I find Taker matches boring because you always know he's going to win, and the WWE doesn't really do a good job building them up. With Cena, it's pretty much already built without them even having to do anything, because IT'S FREAKING CENA. I hate Cena, but it makes good business sense.

Cesaro vs Angle? Where did that come from? Angle's not even in WWE, and it's unlikely they'd even want him given all his issues he's had as well as his terrible state of health

Really, i made it up? Well then BOOM goes the dynamite because when Bryan beats HHH he's wrestling for the title which is exactly what I said they were saying. Now can you dig that... sucka!!!

As for Cesaro vs Angle it's a Longshot right now but it would be a fun match
