I was tempted to stay up and watch since I haven't watched a live event in ages, but this card is so uninspired

JeffKenna

I've been watching some old WCW/WWF footage tonight...just reinforced how desperate the current product is.

CastorTroy

I'd say it'll be Big E and Kofi for New Day, mainly so Kofi can do some sort of spot

Whosthis

I've not really watched WWE in months, think the last time I watched anything live was the RAW after Mania. On a weird sleeping pattern at the moment due to work so might give this a go tonight.

I intend staying up for this but will see how I feel come 1am and the way the matches are placed on the card.

Network isn't working for me & judging by twitter I'm not alone. Anyone here got it working?

not working here either. same problem last month during survivor series pre show.

RazorMcBlade

Well just about to ask the same thing. Network down for me too. No wonder their ratings are low, no one can get on their own Network. I had a similar issue for Survivor Series last month, was watching the pre-show just fine and then it cut out when it should have went to the event. I guess the good news is, it is only the Kick-Off show right now, but they better get it fixed quick, fast and in a hurry.

Angron

Network is fine for me, I've had it running for the last hour or so though so could be that's why.

"The New Day is not leaving the WWE Tag team Championships tonight." Wise words from one of the Usos.

Toobz

Does seem to crash right before every ppv but seems to be fixed before they do kick off for the full live show

RazorMcBlade

I was running it for 45 minutes before the kickoff show, and it still cut out.

Ageyev

Network has crapped the bed.

Stereomaniac

Anyone get theirs working yet? This is a pain in the ass.

A Primal Nut

It's working on youtube:

Not working for me on the network either.

2nd time it's happened, first Survivor Series, now TLC, c'mon WWE get your **** together..

Not yet for me. Still waiting.

A Primal Nut

They showed Colter with Del Rio in the promotional photo for his match although a minute later they showed Del Rio firing Colter.

Oh my God, Swagger just gave a total babyface promo about how he and Zeb had a message that united the WWE universe.

Then Renee said "hopefully we will see them back together", and Booker made some joke about her being a republican.

Virtanen

Glad it isn't just me. A friend I share the account with changed the password today, I thought he'd screw something up.

I try to get on to the Network on my laptop and it either takes me to the billing page (where it says I'm subscribed) or it takes me to the 'reactivate your account' page (where it says I'm not).

The PS3 app, however, which I'd given up on for it's lack of reliability, is actually working for once

Toobz

Is it me or is Corey Graves voice way deeper than usual, not an NXT viewer but usually his voice sounded kinda feminine previously.

Could be completely imagining things though.

A Primal Nut

Please don't say Unity.

J. Marston

Sasha's pop probably won't be beaten on the main show.

RazorMcBlade

Network finally working for me.

A Primal Nut

McGregor mentions by JBL already at 1. Great few days for the Irish all the same.

super_furry

Why do I get the feeling that we're already watching the fight of the night?

RazorMcBlade

I stayed up till 6am to watch McGregor knock Aldo out, glad I wasn't disappointed lol

Because the NXT Women were always better wrestlers than most of the Main Roster

A Primal Nut

One of the better matches since the "Divas Revolution" started on the main roster....too bad they have this really long break in the middle.

super_furry

Well I sure am glad I got to learn about a Steve Austin podcast rather than watch a match

Itssoeasy

I'd say vince is oblivious to the fact that the best match of the night was on the pre show.

Toobz

Massive pop for the win, but also a lot of boos for the interference.

Toobz wrote: »

Yep, which was the intention. While the match deserved a better ending, I think they are right to protect both at this point, until they get a proper title match with a (hopefully) good buildup.

Itssoeasy

**** it Del rio looks delighted to be doing this :D

Itssoeasy

Del rio is using the dirty word of pro wrestling a few times.

Toobz

Tomspiracy looking very small and at a strange angle beside adr :P

A Primal Nut

Del Rio showed more attitude there than normal, a lot better than usual. Usually those backstage things in pre-shows are better probably because they aren't as scripted.

Pentecost

Great to see Becky doing something better than just being a sidekick. Nice match as you'd expect from those two when given the opportunity.

Sure those two could do it in their sleep. Had forgotten that they were in boston . I didn't catch sasha's entrance. Did she get a good pop ? I hope she did.

Toobz

Oh my, they left the Tater Tots line in the build up.

Not good.

Itssoeasy

Pie ? Pie ? You sure it wasn't poontang pie byron ?

Angron

Byron makes very little sense so much of the time.

super_furry

This is painful, like a bad 80s kids cartoon where all the villains are sitting around plotting.

lycan238

Seamus mentioned mc gregor

Corey graves reactions are brilliant. He doesn't say anything but it's so well done. If they had any sense they'd bring him to the main roster commentary booth. He's like a modern day Jesse Ventura.

I was having pretty much the same reactions as Corey tbh :pac: He's easily my favourite commentator going at the moment.

Itssoeasy

New day rocks. Brilliant stuff. Big E has comedy chops.

Turtyturd

Gets mentioned every thread but individual PPV sets would add a lot.

Toobz

I really hope Sin Cara doesn't try climb a ladder....for his own safety.

Itssoeasy

Lillian loved getting to use the spanish with the lucha dragons.

He'll probably come down with a case of the Uso's by the end of the match.

Wonder how long the Cornette cut out will last.
