    I just finished watching the cruiserweight episode. Zzzzz, lul wot is my immediate reaction.

    Tysin Kidd's soundbite about how you can make it big in WWE with hard work was the ultimate jump the shark moment.

    or when talking about the week Raw beat Nitro in the ratings after over a year of not doing so they have the line "WWE was turning the tide in the monday night war by mixing by mixing entertaining characters with dynamic storylines" and then immediately splicing in the clip and audio of Kaientai's "I choppy choppy you pee pee" bit with Val Venis

    It ain't Neflix in so many ways.

    They spent SO much money on the yoke and don't know where it went. What shower designed it. The interface is SO ugly and scroll bar is SO slow.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,216 ✭✭✭Ageyev


    Like the previous poster, I have had to resubscribe with a different email. I have gotten the feeling they don't know what they're doing or have cutback so much that stuff won't get fixed.

    Stupid things like having to sign up via the website. Netflux allows you signup on whatever device you have.

    They hired a new head of digital media recently so we'll see if anything changes I suppose.

    I have a deep, deep dislike of that scroll bar. It's just so rubbish.

    Just noticed they added the Superstar Billy Graham 20 Years Too Soon documentary. This was never released in Europe because the BBFC demanded a large number of cuts to achieve the age rating that Silvervision wanted.

    They're up to the first week of October with Monday Night RAW. The "season premiere" was Sept 11 that featured the new intro shot on the roof of WWF's office. It was also the first Raw Sky Sports aired. Note how there's no Raws between August 21 and September 11.

    Any word on the UK deal yet? Two weeks to the "we'll let you know by then, it's grand" 1st November

    The search function on that Simpsons app sounds great.

    Just watching the Goldberg episode of the war, William Regal just comes across as an absolute lad. The only good feature of the episode.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    Just watching Nitro 29.. Mean Gene interviews Ric Flair with Women & Miss Elizabeth..

    Ric Flair starts singing I've got the whole world in my hands. Woooooo

    I found it funny and just pictured Bray back stage as a kid saying one day I'll do that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,960 ✭✭✭Pentecost


    Was watching a few of the Nitros around the time the NWO was formed. It was pretty basic stuff, never really watched WCW back in the day. Kept hoping someone would show up and annihilate Sting and Luger every time they appeared!

    Watched the latest Monday Night War.

    Supposedly there's 20 episodes. I'm not up on my history but how will they fill the next 10? Will be at least 1 for the end and next week is about Jericho which leaves 8.

    Could their be one just on the new radicalz? Bit of a dodgy one with benoit but it makes sense.

    They released that OMG Shocking Moments of WCW DVD so that could be repackaged as an episode.

    Sting , the rock, DDP, Booker T, Vince Russo, Triple H, Goldust.... maybe some failed experiments could be an episode like Warriors WCW run, David Arquette , Kiss, finger poke , Rodman etc


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,732 ✭✭✭Reganio 2


    I don't know as I never watched wrestling at the time but was Rodmans run not considered a success?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,216 ✭✭✭Ageyev


    I think when he showed up initially he did good numbers. He was dog awful though as where all non-wrestler celebs in WCW.

    Ah I see... I've seen a few interviews that DDP raves about Karl Malone being amazing and great for business, lump Rodman in with him I suppose.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,216 ✭✭✭Ageyev


    WCW had considered bringing in Mike Tyson but Bishoff didn't think he would be worth the cost.

    They could probs do an episode on celeb appearances actually. The Kiss thing was a total fiasco and cost a lot of money. The Kiss Demon was supposed to get a PPV main event per the contract but it ended up being a midcard match on Superbrawl 2000 or something.

    Anything good to watch? A random ppv or an on or something, feel like wrestling but no idea what to watch.

    WCW Halloween Havoc 93 has Cactus Jack vs Vader which is good. Halloween Havoc 91 has the Chamber of Horrors clusterf**k which is so bad it has to be seen to be believed. HH 97 has the highly rated Mysterio vs Eddie match.
