FYI, I have the original Roku which I purchased in 2010, and then I have a Roku app on my tablet. The Roku app will give you all channels available in it's store, but the original Roku's store does not show all channels available, just the ones that are compatible with your Roku version. Original Roku channel store does not show WWE Network.
ReplyDeleteUpgrade your Roku.
What's a Roku, Walter?

ReplyDeleteLots of interesting listings on the screenshots at the Roku store. WCCW, Legends of Wrestling, plus one of the suggestions in the search is Hulk Machine.
More like Chris ZERO.

ReplyDeleteWho wants to do a Tuesday night WWE Network Watch-a-thon? Lets do all the 1998 PPVS!
ReplyDeleteWell that one takes the cake, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteSo, the WWE distributed Chromecasts with their press packets, but no mention yet of how the network will be compatible through said device.
ReplyDeletePlanning level: VKM
And to wrap things up, here is my acceptance speech

Welcome to my world sir.
ReplyDeleteThey gave away Apple TVs too and I read they dropped that due to the cost of licensing app space from Apple.
ReplyDelete*Points to crowd*
ReplyDelete"Dollar sign. Dollar sign, Dollar sign, Dollar sign!"
Hate me for pointing it out if you must, but that is not how you use 'anymore'. The term does not suit a positive sense as it indicates a finite period. What you meant was, "Doesn't it seem like Scott doesn't like the BoD anymore?" See how it associates with the negative? Call me a grammar nazi if you must but I will not back down on this one.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, everyone stop doing this!!!
Yes!!!
ReplyDeleteBryan could work against that broomstick Flair used to get *** matches out of in the 80s. Unfortunately, people would complain the broomstick was another old-timer taking a young guy's spot.
ReplyDeleteSmiles + High-fives. That simple.
ReplyDeleteI just don't see crowds today booing current Goldust. And we need some good strong heels. Cody turns on the brother who came out of retirement to help get him his job back because despite all of his recent screw ups, the crowd still cheere Goldust more. Boom.
ReplyDeleteSounds like an awesome idea to me
ReplyDeleteDON'T EVEN JOKE ABOUT IT
ReplyDeleteI think he still has some residue of being an egotistical ass for walking out on the HBK feud then pretty much sinking TNA by turning it into WCW 2.0. If all he does is come to WM, flex the pythons, hit the catch phrase checkmarks, maybe bodyslam a heel a la Hassan at WM21 (doubt we'll see a leg drop at this point lol), and leave with maybe another backstage segment or two, I'm sure we're all going to be fine with that. There's just a little backlash because of the negative things he's done in and out of the ring over the last several years.
ReplyDeleteWOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAWWW
ReplyDeleteGODDAMMIT WHY IS BATISTA NOT DOING A HOLLYWOOD HEEL ROCK GIMMICK RIGHT NOW?
ReplyDeleteMy booking idea for WM30.. First how do you keep the show from being hijacked by Bryan fans and build suspense? WWE World Championship tournament... What if the Elimination Chamber ends up without a winner and the WWE runs an 8 or 10 man title tournament at Wrestlemania? What if Brock runs in and destroys the last two guys in the chamber because he's not in it, causing another abeyance situation? Some of their proposed WM30 matchups (Wyatt/Cena) could even happen in the context of the tournament, with both the Main Event and title on the line providing extra drama. They would give Batista a bye so that he would only have to fight in the last match of the night.
ReplyDeleteTo punish Lesnar, they would make him face The Undertaker. Just to make it even better, i would add a guest ring announcer for each match.. preferably a legend or Diva from the WWE's past.
What do ya think???
Hogan vs. Sting in a wheelchair match at WM30. Book it!
ReplyDeleteBoth guys start the match in wheelchairs, and the first person to fall off loses.
You can't add the channel on the XBox 360 yet? Hopefully Microsoft adds it by Monday morning. I'm gonna be pissed if I can't watch it on my 360.
ReplyDeleteEvery time I hear that song I think of Short Circuit 2. I saw that movie a lot on cable.
ReplyDeletedoing the nightshift in a hostel for three years. great time because I met loads of people I would have never met otherwise (best example: where else would I have ever had the chance to talk about the Arabic wave of revolutions for almost two hours with people that actually hail from Egypt and Tunesia?).
ReplyDeleteEven Rock Bottom?
ReplyDeleteI was also thinking we could have a night each week where we watch a terrible PPV and just rip it apart. It can't be boring PPVs but just laughably awful PPVs that are easy to make fun of.
ReplyDeletestill better than losing to Triple H. at least Hogan is a legitimate legend.
ReplyDeleteturns out it was the broomstick carrying Flair all the time.
ReplyDeletethis is btw why I wondered about many of the reactions last week (like "wow, they really present Cesaro as being able to hang with a main event guy" .... uhm, they already did that once with Bryan?!).
ReplyDeleteAre you putting Undertaker in the tootle tournament.
ReplyDeleteonly if the WWE goes down the smurfs-route and randomly replaces verbs with the word "Bryan" (eg: Cole: "he really bryan'd his opponent with that move!").
ReplyDeletebest example: Cena and Rock hugging and the crowd crapping over it.
ReplyDeleteNoooooooooooooooooooo.
ReplyDeleteThere is an app for that.
ReplyDeleteYeah, but WM 30 hasn't happened yet...
ReplyDeleteI sort of disagree.
ReplyDeletethe way to get Batista over is let him demolish people (and obviously those people shouldn't look like they didn't have a chance right from the beginning -> Alberto Del Rio). of course at first there would be same backlash because fans would see through it.
but generally speaking it is the simple way that has worked most of the time. make him look like a monster and (some/a lot of) people will buy into it at some point.
it doesn't help that his new catchphrase seems to be "deal with it."
ReplyDeletethe WWE gave CM Punk the longest title reign in years and people didn't stop caring about him.
ReplyDeleteHave we discussed the content listing for the new Ultimate Warrior DVD?
ReplyDeletehttp://www.wrestlingdvdnews.com/match-listing-wwe-ultimate-warrior-ultimate-collection-dvd/61205/
It's out on the 24th anniversary of his WWF Title win at WM6. I wonder if that was done on purpose?
You're a funny guy, Paul.
ReplyDeleteI think I just threw up in my mouth a little.
ReplyDeleteJesus WWE, just give him the championship, give him the streak, give him whatever it'll take for people to shut up about him.
ReplyDeleteI love me some European Football. I just wish in the USA they eliminated the tie from MLS.
ReplyDeleteI was hoping someone would pick up that.
ReplyDeleteI read that they will roll out Youtube to earlier versions a little down the road. As long as your device is 2011 models or later. I'm still using a barebones Youtube I picked up as a private channel, and it still works.
ReplyDeleteno way he looked better than DiBiase, at least not to me. to me it always seemed like the WWE was more high on DiBiase (and therefore protected him a little more), but he was really the weaker one of those two.
ReplyDeleteI think the biggest money would be in them being over as a kickass, well booked tag team.
ReplyDeleteWorking third shift and being at school until 3:30 the next day was do insane I don't know how I ever did it. Thank god there was a Starrbucks in the basement of the student rec center.
ReplyDeleteGod I miss those days.....
I use to do landscaping when I was younger, had my own company called Lawn & Order. So, there's a Saturday where I'm being paid like $1000 for a ton of work that has to be done in one day. We're talking like mowing an area the size of a football field where the grass has grown to 2-3 feet high, plus a bunch of other shit. So, I have to be there at around 7am in order to get all this done in time.
ReplyDeleteThe afternoon before Saturday, my friend asks me to take one for the team. There's this girl he's been trying to bang, but she insists on a double-date ordeal [this broad is prejudice against Italians! Can you believe that? In this day & age]. It's against my better judgment, but you can't say no when a friend asks for you to take one for the team. Well, her friend couldn't have been further from what I'm into if she tried. So, I'm of course nice the whole evening, even though she annoyed me a bit. My friend assured me I could leave & be done with things around 9pm. Well, it's around 8pm when he and the girl take off to their bedroom, and I'm stuck with the damn friend, who WON'T SHUT UP. Seriously, she just kept talkingandtalkingandtalkingandtalking despite the fact it was very obvious I'm trying to sleep. Finally, she shuts her fucking mouth and goes to sleep. At 6fuckingam. So I get a cool 45 minutes of sleep and then go and work in 100 degree heat for 14 hours.
I use to work at Hot Topic & Game Stop, and as such my schedule was pretty jacked due to other things. So, there'd be times where I'd go to bed at 3am, and have to be up at 5 or 6, then open the shop at Hot Topic at 8am. There'd be times I was so tired, I would literally fall asleep while standing.
Did it turn out you could have been there at 7am and still have front row?
ReplyDeleteCan someone help me with an IT issue? I'm having WWE App on Xbox360 issues, where is Michael Cole when I need him?
ReplyDeleteSo in preparation for the Network, I downloaded the WWE App on Xbox Live. When I sign into the app, it automatically opens up to a WWE PPV Log in screen and asks me to sign in. I obviously don't have an account, so It links me to the WWE.com/PPV website to create a WWE account. Super.
I created that account. Now I go back to Xbox Live and the app is still not recognizing my login and ID.
Anyone know what I might be doing wrong? Do I need to wait 24 hours for the Xbox Live to recognize my WWE account?
PS I think network idea is awesome and can't wait to sign up. HOWEVER... I tried navigating the website for help/contact info and can only find e-mail contact. I truly hope on Monday they have some phone numbers available for people to call on Monday or they may have some very frustrated technologically deficient people on their hands....
Personally, I'm just tired of the guy. I don't have any real beef with him being brought back and used in this role, but the man has had so many career comebacks attempts and has loitered in the business for so long, I'm simply don't give a damn about him anymore. The thrill is long gone.
ReplyDeleteXbox 360 will have the ability to add the channel on launch day...Xbox One comes a bit later...
ReplyDeleteOh no, there was a lot of soccer fans in my college town and it'd be standing-room only for big games. A good Champions League or EPL matchup would pack the bar at 11am on a Wednesday, so I would always make sure that we got the best seat in the house; plus drinking early.
ReplyDeleteThat's why he's gonna kill you last.
ReplyDeleteIt features the HHH squash at 'Mania XII. Tee-hee.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, they had it right with the Self-Destruction DVD. I mean, who honestly wants 3 discs of the Warrior's matches? The most obnoxious thing about it is they left off his rematch with Macho at SummerSlam, which is arguably his second best match. They also omitted the Papa Shongo stuff, we get no vignettes with Jake, and Hogan vs Warrior II isn't on there. C'mon! Part of his charm is the absolute dreadful crap he's done.
ReplyDeleteWyatt vs Cena is an absolute waste for WMXXX. The only way I could see this working, is if in the next few weeks Bray
ReplyDeleteWyatt destroys star after star, then defeats Randy Orton for the title,
but throws it down and says it means nothing to him. The only thing that
means anything in this company is defeating John Cena. A man who is
looked at as a God. But you don't just defeat a God. He's going to be
the first to show the people that God can, and WILL bleed. He will crush
his bones into powder. He will turn all of his believers into atheists.
He will not just take the victory, but everything John Cena believes
in. Everything he stands for. At WrestleMania, he'll make John Cena wish
that he was only after a victory.
We are pet peeve buddies! Do you also hate a sandwich being described as "with au jus"?
ReplyDeleteNo Undertaker would be facing Lesnar as punishment. Plus if he was in a tournament that would make any match he was in pretty obvious. he'd either win or have a non-finish so that the streak wouldn't be in jeopardy.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to express how disappointed I am we can no longer see how many downvotes a comment gets. BOOOO Disqus.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I read that too. I thought something else would have come out by now. I figured Roku was just trying to sell more Roku 3's before Christmas.
ReplyDeleteCody can do the cartoony stuff. Keep "I'm just a wrestler" for the guys who can't do anything else.
ReplyDeleteThat was my point. He looked like the inferior partner in all of his teams.
ReplyDeleteHow long does Goldust have? And I know that we wants to go up against Cody at Mania, so I figure WWE would give him what he wants.
ReplyDeleteWe need heels? I guess. But we've kinda tapped Heel!Cody dry. I figure trying him as a solo babyface might be something worth doing.
ReplyDeleteI guess Bryan is much less prone to squashing dudes dead than Cena is.
ReplyDeleteYour gimmick sucks.
ReplyDelete30 days.. should be enough time to not have it spoiled by you fuckers. And definitely not by WWE because I'll be watching late 80s PPVs on the Network instead of RAW.
ReplyDeleteSounds fun, tho I can't make any promises due to having to stay sober during the week and whatnot.
ReplyDeleteIIRC, he's been extended til Summerslam.
ReplyDeleteOf course you worked at Hot Topic.
ReplyDeleteCan I call you a grammar Stalinist?
ReplyDeleteThey're not trying to get people to cheer Batista over Bryan. That's just in the minds of his obnoxious fans.
ReplyDeleteWWE has done the whole "Faces and Heels that hate each other greatly must team up before they face off" to death, and they have one staring them in the face that would garner a shit-ton of fan interest and they don't do it.
ReplyDeleteI'm honestly interested to know if Bryan would be getting half the reaction he's getting now if the company had gotten behind him and made him champion, or if people are cheering for him because of the perception that he's not supposed to be the guy.
ReplyDeleteFuck no. And that's the sad part when people constantly bitch about him.
Oh wow they got rid of the downvote?
ReplyDeleteThat'd be a good time to see him out, actually.
ReplyDeleteThis is leaving me with the odd realization that I haven't actually seen many Ultimate Warrior matches, as much of a fan as I considered myself as a kid.
ReplyDeleteAlso, as a side note, this is the kind of DVD release I'm hoping to see more of in the Network age - more rare, non-PPV matches.
I read it all and it was awesome. Only problem I see is how you'd manufacture the glass pod so that it breaks when Sheamus kicks it but not when Bryan/Cena are pounding away at it.
ReplyDeleteJust nitpicking, awesome booking.
Looks very promising. Though I have to admit I LOLed when I opened the channel and the first thing I saw was a giant picture of John Cena smiling at me.
ReplyDeleteYeah, that's weak. Might as well just jump the DV button entirely.
ReplyDelete(PS: I downvoted your comment. No offense. ;) )
I think Bryan not breaking it can be explained with him not having enough room to maneuver, whereas the Cena thing isn't something I would personally choose to do but I can see them going that route. He could take a few shots at it and then get attacked by one of the heels. Then when Sheamus does break it, the announces sell the shit out of how brutal the brogue kick is when he hits someone with it.
ReplyDeleteWel, you can still downvote and it will apparently turn the downvote error red, but it won't show the tally of downvotes you -- or maybe some terrible, terrible poster who never adds anything to any discussion he particiapes in -- has gotten.
ReplyDeleteAlso omitted is Summerslam 89' which features possibly the best commentary ever by Jesse Ventura.
ReplyDeleteI probably wouldn't choose Wyatt as Cena's opponent this year if it was up to me, but that's the most pervasive rumor. The main problem I see with it is there's nowhere for Bray to go after that. He's peaking far too early that way. Regardless if it's Cena or Heath Slater, he needs that entrance I described.
ReplyDeleteThat's lame
ReplyDeleteWell I guess that's okay. Since I'm no longer seeing the number of downvotes I'm getting, I guess my fragile psyche is secure. Thank you for protecting my, Disqus.
ReplyDeleteMy guess is that whoever thinks WWE needed to sanitze old footage of chairshots to the head quit there to come to Disqus and do this.
I guess instead of downvotes, I'll have to leave insults that get upvotes.
ReplyDeleteThere's Youtube on later versions of Roku? I thought mine was fancy because of all the private porn channels.
ReplyDeleteI saw the first one. Missed the second one.
ReplyDeleteLOVED LOVED LOVED the first one... the first time I ever saw Flair/Sting, Flair/Steamboat and Flair/Funk. I still have it on tape... somewhere... (minus any matches I already had on tape).
Given that that actually sounds like a great creative idea, it's almost a sure bet it won't show up on RAW. Or if it does, the commentary team will find a way to beat the "WWE Universe" Bryan-love into the ground to a point that everyone is completely over him the next week.
ReplyDeleteAnother TNA signing they should have done 3 years ago (along with the wolves). If this wasn't TNA, I'd be getting interested.
ReplyDeleteWhen the Network hits, are you gonna be doing the thing with your hands where you first weigh porn....then weigh the wrestling?
ReplyDeleteThat stuff would've gotten over in a different era. It may even get over in the future. It just won't get over in the present.
ReplyDeleteThat match is listed for Disc 1. I'm sure Jesse's commentary will be removed, though.
ReplyDeleteFortunately, that wasn't an issue on the now-defunct Classics On Demand and won't be an issue on the Network.
Holding him up, from time to time. Especially in the wee small hours...
ReplyDeleteFor what they paid Hogan from 09-13, TNA could have brought in both Kings of Wrestling, Del Ray, Bryan and a few other ROHers to have one heck of a mid card / knockouts division.
ReplyDeleteWarrior rarely wrestled on tv so his WWE PPV matches are mostly good (Hogan, Savage, Rude) or quick squashes. Vince smartly protected a limited worker.
ReplyDeleteBut how can he get the app?
ReplyDeleteIf only someone from the WWE -- maybe Michael Cole -- had taken a few minutes out of Raw to communicate how said app could be downloaded on smartphones, tablets, gaming devices or set top internet television devices.
ReplyDeleteScott must have change the system so that we don't get 1000 post in a thread.
ReplyDeleteI will be very disappointed if there is not a WWE channel on my Apple TV on Monday.
ReplyDeleteYou get an upvote for that.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure it's at the Disqus level.
ReplyDeletehuh? I thought your point was that Rhodes looked weaker? but I think after a very short time it became clear that Rhodes > DiBiase (even the WWE themselves realized it. at least that's why I think that Rhodes got placed as a decent midcarder while DiBiase spent most of his time wrestling in the undercard).
ReplyDeleteIt should've been longer!
ReplyDeleteAh, I getcha.
ReplyDeleteYeah, by the end, Cody looked better, but for most of it people thought Ted was going to be a huge star out of the whole deal.
It's a pretty good collection of matches, with a bunch of house show matches (a couple I was at MSG for live).
ReplyDeleteI won't buy it, but if it gets put on Netflix, I'll definitely watch.
It needs to have the Ravishing Rick Rude interview before the match where the sign fell down and Mean Gene swore on PPV.
ReplyDeleteWorked at Six Flags in Jersey and they gave me as many hours as I wanted until the high schools let out for summer. The little Kids Park (Bugs Bunny Land) is a level of hell in Dante's inferno. I worked 2-4 there and drove 45 minutes to work 5 - 9 at another job.
ReplyDeleteSide note: I worked with a guy that put in a 112 hour work week on average.
And you don't even have one.
ReplyDeleteI've already downloaded the app on my PS3, ready for when I get home from work on Monday.
ReplyDeleteNo...no I don't. Gimmick posters on boards suck. They always suck.
ReplyDeleteYou jelly, bro?
ReplyDeleteI think Big E is more fluid and dynamic in the ring than Titus at this point. Titus is stiff (in his movements, not how hard he hits) and at least once per match it seems he does something that reminds me wrestling is fake. I was thinking about Ron Simmons too, but I like that D'Von has (correct me if I'm wrong) more experience overseas and in every kind of promotion from small indies to big-time WWE at their peak.
ReplyDeleteI'm peanut butter.
ReplyDeleteGross.
ReplyDeleteAGREED! If their hard on for this clown ever subsided I don't know what they'd do with their lives.
ReplyDeleteNo Hogan saves the streak. That way he can finally pass patch the torch (flame? match? flicker? spark? slight burning sensation?) to a younger wrestler...
ReplyDeleteYou sure do suck at math. And life.
ReplyDelete" I have the original Roku, and it is not showing up in my store, therefore it will not be available on any original devices"
ReplyDeleteFunny, it's showing up on mine.
The shark? Long ago.
ReplyDeleteYou don't like things that are crunchy and filled with protein?
ReplyDeleteNo wonder Australia is the world's fattest country.
I still don't see it. There are other channels not offered in the channel store on my device as well. It's the original model, and I read in Roku forums that those devices are being left in the cold.
ReplyDeleteAnd the term "au jus sauce".
ReplyDeleteDo people here not work on Wednesdays?
ReplyDeleteBUT THAT DOESN'T MOVE THE NEEDLE ABOVE 1.1, BROTHER, ONLY HULK HOGAN AND THE NEW WO--uh, I mean, THE BAND AND KNOBBS WILL TAKE TNA ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP, JACK
ReplyDeleteHE'S THROWING SALT, MAGGLE.
ReplyDeleteTitus is a little green but it's stuff that can be learned with time. Big E just doesn't show enough personality, it may because of the way he is booked but still.
ReplyDeleteD'Von does have more experience with those things, but Simmons did work during the tail end of the territory days. He also was more than willing to help guys get over during the end of his run.
What about the pimp? or the big dicked ladies man? or the gang banger?
ReplyDeleteI agree that should have been the ending to this story, but I am advocating Bryan vs. HHH under the pretense of Orton vs. Batista really being the WWE title match
ReplyDelete
