    Jus turned it on. JR's on at the moment.. Are they actually showing the whole thing? When i first heard about the stream i assumed it'd be a US-Exclusive thing and never bothered to think about it.

    If only they'd do this with RAW/SD!.

    As far as i know the whole thing is on wwe.com and the last hour is on tv. It goes on for a long time so i can't see USA network showing the lot.

    Gonna be a lot of rednecks talking tonight.

    At the moment WWE are just streaming a Graphic that has steve austin beside the writing

    "WATCH THE WWE HALL OF FAME SPECIAL TONIGHT 10/9c" with the USA (tv station) logo beside it, So maybe they won't show the last ones on WWE.com? :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,536 ✭✭✭Brimmy


    Yeah the stream is over now.

    Steamboat and Austin are being held for the tv show and the other acceptances will probably be briefly mentioned at the start.

    Fink was awesome.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,594 ✭✭✭Fozzy


    I recorded the show last night but the recording cut out during Austin's speech. I'll have to watch one of the repeats


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    It seemed to run slightly over, there was also a strange bit where part of Vinces speech rewound and restarted, overall it wasnt great the hour was mostly adbreaks, past mania moments and ads for the game, id say there was about 15 mins of actual speeches in it, am looking forward to the dvd though, is it true the other inductees were told to limit speeches to 3 minutes?

    I don't think SS3's coverage was entirely live, hence the rewinding and restarted.

    Inductees have been known to limit their speeches, and failure to do so ended up being cut. I know Nick Bockwinkel was told to keep his down a couple of years back, he only went over by about a minute and he was still cut out on the Mania commercial release.

    And people think I can be petty? :)

    I wouldn't be surprised, they were really rushing it last year to get the show edited for tv. Flair's speech was still going on live as the tv show was beginning

    And this year they had one less hour between the ceremony starting and the tv show starting

    I thought Austin's speech was great! Not only was he humble, but he kept it short and sweet. I also like how he passed the torch to Cena by sharing a beer with him. Class act!

    And there were no WHAT? chants for once, lol!

    Stone cold steve austin,
    What a badass,
    The guy carried wwe in the late 90's.

    He realy did put on a great show every monday night.

    I remember the chill's i used to get down my spine,
    when i heard the glass break.
    I havent watched wwe since austin left,
    and I dont think i will ever again.
