Is WWE Network available in Canada at all? I thought I read that yes but you needed to input a US address when signing up. Any ideas?

Officially, no, but yeah, if you put in a US address you can access it; same trick that people in the UK have been doing. I use that trick on Amazon when buying game keys; I just use Google's address. :P

I just finished all of NXT I thought it was a decent show (with the exception of Mojo Borely)

 

Paige is seriously the real deal so is Emma!

 

Call Zayn up he's ready!

So, I just finally was able to sign up for the free trial of the network. First thing I did of  course, was re-watch Hogan vs. Rock from WM18. Just a stunning moment for me.

 

So uh, is it worth it to watch NXT Arrival from last night? I mean, I know the card and HHH was on etc because it was a big deal launch for them. But, were there you know, production values? Was it shot well? I know stupid questions, but I really don't want to watch video that's just badly done like some old NXT shows had (bad camera angles etc).

I think the general consensus here would be...

I've been watching it ever since they relaunched it in the current format, so I'll share my view. Production-wise, they're pretty similar to WWE's usual shows; the big differences are smaller crowds in a smaller arena and no pyros (there's occasional fog blasts in place of pyros, but that's it). They do have a tendency to chop and change both ring announcers and commentators too, but it's not as annoying as it sounds. In my opinion, NXT has the best commentary team in WWE, and that's mostly down to William Regal.

Holy ###### that was some match. That reversal powerbomb thingy was incredible looking. Cesaro needs to be pushed like crazy, he's a god damn monster. And Sami Zayn needs to be called up the main roster - I feel that's coming after Wrestlemania. He's going to have some nutso matches.

 

Also, I love them chanting Ole Ole heh.

Anyone watch TNA this week?  First of 2 shows from Wembley arena.  I was at the taping, was a really good night.  It was a shame it was at the tail end of several shows of tv tapings so they were pacing themselves.  Even so I think being in an arena packed with 10 or 15 thousand fans hot for it really done them some favours.

 

I thought the EC3 video with the speech bubbles was pretty comical

Yep, I watched it this morning. TNA's shows always seem to be better with big crowds; maybe they should just move to the UK as it's the only time they usually get big crowds nowadays. EC3's video definitely got a mild chuckle out of me too. Also saw this...

    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      By The Werewolf · Posted

      The flaw with this analysis is that this laptop has a cellphone CPU in it. In the Intel world, that would be an N150 and those are everywhere, even in low end laptops. You can get an N150 based NUC with 16GB RAM and 256GB-512GB SSD... NOT soldered in... for < $500 Canadian (around US$360). The problem is two fold: tech bloggers/writers on most tech site (like this one, ironically) overvalue Apple and apparently aren't in the same earnings class as most regular people. As a result, we get breathless articles about how everyone needs a folding phone when most people just cannot afford one... or really need one. And we get Apple used as the baseline metric regardless of whether that comparison makes any sense. If Dell or HP released a retail laptop with a cellphone motherboard, you'd be all over them for doing that - but Apple does it and it's genius. I see articles suggesting what Samsung - a company that basically started the foldable phone market and has built them for eight years - needs to do to compete with Apple's unreleased, unspecced and unseen folding phone. Sorry, no - if the Neo (really creative name there BTW - still, better than the Go, the other "creative" product name everyone's using) encourages PC makers to make cellphone laptops using lower end ARM processors, we all lose. It's a step backwards and a capitulation to the fact that semiconductor makers and computer OEMs (and tech bloggers) have totally lost the plot.

      Steam Next Fest returns with thousands of new demos to try out by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Valve has been routinely kicking off demo festivals on Steam for years now, and the second drop of 2026 has just opened its doors. It's a great opportunity for any PC gamers to find some interesting games before they release. The June edition of Steam Next Fest is a week-long digital festival including gameplay slices from a large number of indie developers, though a few major publishers are involved this time too. Interested players can use the Next Fest hub page's various sorting and filtering options to easily sort through the hordes of demos available. The top buttons offer quick access to separate and important sorting options, including "By Genre, By Theme, By Feature," with each one offering more granular settings when clicked. At the same time, the built-in Steam tags system is also available below every page to discover new games more quickly. As always, logging in will also enable Steam gamers to utilize Valve's recommendation algorithms to find game demos they might like, specifically, depending on their past play and purchase histories. This time there is even a toggle now to swap between getting a random and personalized selection as Valve collects more data on the available demos. The Charts section is where you can find the most popular demos on the platform right now, offering up the most hyped titles in a simple list. Right at the kickoff, Mistfall Hunter, Empulse, Echoes of Aincrad, Onimusha: Way of the Sword, Over the Hill, Mortal Shell II, and more are trending. Expect this list to change as the week progresses. This edition of the Steam Next Fest is slated to end on June 22 at 10 AM PT. Valve's latest event is now open, and it can be accessed by going to the dedicated hub page here.
