In sad news Kaitlyn has left the WWE, I hope this spot won't go to waste.

Yeah, I'm sad; she was my favourite Diva.

In better news, though, we finally got details about the new network.

Holy shit.

$9.99 a month and it comes with the ppvs

Vs

$60 for HD wrestlemania.

I plan to give them a few months but I plan on getting the network

Same. I'll wait for them to work the kinks out and to get their inevitable server issues worked out, but I want to support WWE, and I can afford ten dollars a month.

The 10 bucks a month is a 6 month commitment and I'm worried that they won't show major ppv (Summerslam, survivor series, Rumble, wrestlemania) live but they have confirmed elimination chamber will be streamed live.

Did they not say all 12 ppvs would be shown live?

Not confirmed yet but it will stream every ppv in the WWE library, no word on if the will be edited to pg.

bg This is completely wrong.

The first PPV they show will be Mania and every new PPV will be shown live. Every past PPV will be available on demand as well.

I mean post launch obviously, not to mention the last 6 ppvs they streamed 4 had major issues. One of them even gave refunds because the server crashed.

I'm not trying to be a downer but I have a legitimate worry about this.

I honestly keep waiting to find out what the catch is.

That said, didn't they already reveal who the streaming company would be, that would handle it? Supposedly they have an amazing record.

I heard that Raw and Smackdown won't be shown live, so I'm still wondering what that means about the PPVs.

Otherwise, with Wrestlemania coming up, I'm confident that few of the wrestlers I really like will get to do anything of note in the next few months. Poor Miz/Sandow/Ziggler (concussion or not).

Honestly I feel Miz needs to take a break if he ever wants to make it big again, he is as damaged as a wrestler can get in the eyes of the fans.

Sandow I feel is going through the embarrassing phase before a big push, I think his in ring work could be more polished but he is gold on the Mic and very natural.

Ziggler I think needs a character overhaul but his in ring work is among the best in the company.

The problem with that, is that I don't see them repackaging him any time soon.

I hope Sandow gets a push soon. That Cena cash-in was just awful.

I like his character; I just think he's been a victim of some awful luck with those concussions.

A brilliant move to cut the Wyatt family angle short. Bryan is insanely over at this point.

The Warrior makes it to the Hall of the Fame!

The most anticipated acceptance in the history of ALL Hall of fames!

Someone also mentioned that the story arc has many parallels with Sting's short stint with the NWO.

I was watching WCW Nitro from 1997, and noticed that the Sting/NWO storyline is VERY similar to the Daniel Bryan Storyline.

First similarity: Daniel Bryan joined the Wyatt Family..

(Sting joined the NWO in 1997): http://youtu.be/te3Iw9WwklI?t=5m53s

Second similarity: For the next two shows, Bryan comes out WITH the wyatt family.

In the next TWO nitros, Sting comes out WITH the NWO: http://youtu.be/QS_pwgXdheY?t=50s http://youtu.be/fL-QYeVTLPw?t=1h30m2s [at 1 hour 30 minutes]

Third similarity: After this two appareances. Daniel Bryan turns on the Wyatt Family, and fights, crowd goes super crazy.

Sting, also fights the NWO, and crowd goes super crazy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UljmYMG6tkY [Uncensored 1997]

Give your opinions, I know my post is real bad, I'm sorry. I just saw the Raw ending, and after seeing Daniel Bryan expresions reminded me A ****ing LOT of Sting.

Also I'm bad at english, so sorry about that.

I was never a huge Warrior fan growing up, but nice to see that they're getting along.

Still want Savage, though.

It would've been great if each had the opportunity to induct the other. Warrior and Savage were great friends.

I hope company rivalries are put aside and they allow Sting to induct Warrior.

On that note, Sting should be inducted. Life is too short, especially that of wrestlers.

I actually heard that Sting and Warrior aren't friends anymore, so not sure if he'd be the guy to induct him. Though I could be wrong.

Warrior responds directly to fans and I know in the past he has related stories about talking with Sting frequently. How recent is your news?

There was a funny story about Sting maybe 2 years back talking about when he and Warrior used to steal food to get by.

I regret to inform everyone, Mae Young has passed away at age 90.

My picks for this years HOF are Demolition, Jake the Snake, Jim Cornette, & David "Fit" Finley

I'd like Rock & Roll Express to go in with Jim Cornette.

The three rumored names going around are Dr. Death Steve Williams, Paul Bearer, & Kamala.
