I'll probably get the WWE network within the next couple weeks. Try it out for awhile. The main thing that is appealing right now is the fact i can go through the entire ppv library and watch stuff I had missed years ago. Pretty much most late attitude era ppv's. Well, and the fact that all current ppv's won't cost $50 or whatever is a nice touch too.
There seems to be talk about a bigger focus on NXT. If NXT becomes a WWECW type of thing where they build the talent on a public stage and keep putting on shows like NXT Arrival, I may consider the network too. I don't know if I would be thrilled in watching from my PC or Phone instead of my tv.
far as i understand, you can access the network via ps3 and xbox360. and the next gen systems later this summer. at least if you have that option available.
i remember the first year they did the NXT on Syfy, like right after ECW was canned. I enjoyed the couple episodes that I watched. I would watch some more NXT on the network for sure.
Mania does not seem to be shaping up well at all. There are talks of Bryan doing two matches though. That could turn out to be pretty sweet if they do.
There is suppose to be a "Big" thing happening on Raw tonight involving Danial Bryan. Nothing is confirmed and most of it is rumored, but Helix may not be too far off about WMXXX. Bryan v. Batista v. Orton for the WWE WHC.
If my source comes through my work today, then I will try to confirm information with him. It will be put in spoilers if I find anything.
The occupy Raw movement was probably one of the best moments on Raw of the last 5 years for me.
WWE may not be having CM Punk at WM30, but with what seems to be building with Bryan, I don't think most fans will care. His match with Trips and presumably the Triple Threat match with Randy Boring, and Randy Boring V2.0 will be the events everyone will be watching for.
I also really like what they've been doing with The Shield lately. The impending breakup is putting the focus on Rollins and giving him some time to shine. They've kind of had each member of The Shield in the forefront now and it's a good sign. I really want to see all three do incredible things post breakup, but up until now, rollins was the dude that they didn't seem to care about. Reigns was getting the huge star push, Ambrose has the mic skills and character to pull off a hated heel for a very long time. But Rollins was kind of overshadowed by the others. With the focus shifting to him lately, I feel it is really good and I hope it results in him not getting the Ziggler treatment when the breakup comes.
sadly, this year is probably the one year i don't care about Taker's match. That usually happened with Micheals 2, Trips 2 and 3, etc.
I honestly thought I'd be more excited, but meh. Maybe I'm just understanding that the match has a good chance to not be as good as years past with his age now.
I've heard from a source, dunno how reliable yet, that the taker match might be changed. No idea why, but that's what the source is saying. I don' really believe it outside of the fact that he's yet to lie about anything.
Mania did go from a crapper to at least watchable due to 2 Bryan matches.

i haven't seen anything on any dirtsheets yet about a change. So i would take that with a grain of salt.
Being this close to WM30, I can't imagine they would change it up considering the Undertaker has trained with his WM opponents for the last several years at his own ring. (don't know if it's a gym, or what. And this is according to sites i visit) Once Taker signs on, and he gets the opponent, that's when they start working together. All reports I've ever seen mentioned Brock as the guy being there.
I liked most of RAW. The fatal 4 way was excellent. I would have preferred Ziggler to win, but it's certainly better than Sheamus or ADR winning. The Cena Harper match was awesome too, if only for the beat down that they put on him. The ending was pretty awesome. The Shield match was glorious, but there's not much to say about that because the Shield has been pretty outstanding for over a year now. Even the squashes were cool, although I would have preferred to see Titus/Sandow get some wins.
The worst part of RAW were all the promos. Pretty much everything promowise other than Shield and Wyatts were trash. The Undertaker and Lesnar certainly should not have closed the show.
I thought the Lesnar/Taker promo was going to end differently, like with Lesnar falling INTO the casket and taker closing it on him. That's how I would've ended it at least.
I can't wait to cheer more for SHIELD. I hope to god they don't break up.

I... at least I hope that Lesnar stays as a fulltimer now.
It would be a shame to waste such a big push on a part timer who, at the end of the day, never needed it.
But.. still, holy crap. Never expected it, not this year.

I rolled 5 D6's and got 3 fours. They must have changed the odds of getting a 4!

I think undertaker was wanting to retire, you could tell in recent years, even with plenty of planning and basically only one match per year that he was slowing down. I expect that they plan to have a payoff from having Lesnar win, would be crazy of them to just have lesnar win and basically leave again. Also kind of brings into question whether we actually would see a sting/undertaker match at this point, unless they wanted to get the streak out of the way before doing it. Either way, yup, they went and did it, much to the shock of.... well ... pretty much everyone :p.
Last night's RAW was on fire. It seemed like a larger than normal amount of debuts/vignettes. I am kind of worried about what they will do with all these dudes. Rusev, Paige, Bo, Adam Rose? Add in Bad News Barrett and RVD returning. That's a lot of new dudes to throw into the mix. I marked pretty hard when Cesaro split from Zeb. I can't wait to see what the King of Swing does now, although I really liked him with Zeb & Swagger.
Good thing The Ultimate Warrior appeared on Raw last night, because he died less than 24 hours later. Unbelievable. I'm assuming he had a heart attack due to damage brought on by steroid use, but who knows. They haven't said exactly how he died yet, just that he did.

If you haven't seen them yet, you need to check out hulu for the Cesaro vs Sami Zayn matches. They are incredible.

Although, I do like how Bootista is getting ticked off. Haha, angry movie star, lol.
Oh yeah, and I don't like how the Usos lost to a team that's been breaking up slowly the past month or so.
Cesaro needs to go solo again, Jack Swagger is cramping his style.

I love Cheering for S.H.I.E.L.D.
BELIEVE IN THE SHIELD!!!
Was I the only one that totally marked out when they triple-powerbombed Cesaro through the announce table?!
I actually really want to see them fight Corporate Kane and Corporate Outlaws, that's going to be an interesting match.

They really Salvaged this WM from being a total disaster, however, can't say that unless I know Lesnar is staying FT...
