Damien, I can't play any of the videos that you've been posting.

Just noticed they're not playing on here for me either. In my case, they're just frozen though; the context menu still comes up, and they play just fine through the original Gfycat link.

It was announced during NXT (actually a commercial) that the first 100 hours available of WCW Monday Nitro will be added next week, I think that's about the first 50 episodes.

 

they'll be in the Vault section .. http://network.wwe.com/shows/vault/wcw-monday-nitro

 

Actually they announced that during Raw this week.

Candice LeRae. Her renowned move known as Ballsplex

Aha, that name's familiar; saw her in TNA last year (and the production botched her name)...

 

Speaking of the "Ballsplex", just searching her name came up with a pretty awesome double one she did on The Young Bucks (among other amazing things with Adam Cole)...

She is pretty good compared to WWE divas and Joey Ryan is her tag team partner (World's cutest tag team) If you want to see more of her action can watch mini PPV on PWG eleven...the match card http://www.prowrestlingguerrilla.com/tickets/

I watched the first episode of The Monday Night War. Very well done, looking forward to the other 19 episodes planned for this series. At one point they interview Vince Russo. Had no idea he "made up" with WWE.

Maybe the interview was done years ago. You can see there are interviews from 2003, 1998, etc., even with Vince.

 

Anyway, I also watched 3 episodes of this. While the production is good, the "documentary" feels biased (quite obvious, since it's done by WWE). They spin the story to their advantage and I really don't like that. For example, the Attitude era was not the reason for WCW's end. WCW sabotaged itself, THAT'S what gave WWE the advantage. If you think about it, the "rebel" act was already done by the nWo, so DX was a poor attempt to imitate that. While I do see Austin's merits, and also others, I am 1000% sure that if Bischoff wasn't so cocky and arrogant WCW would've never loose this "war". WWE had, as Bischoff said in the interviews, cartoonish characters, while WCW/nWo focused on reality. WWE did just that with their Attitude era, copying WCW. 

 

Another example of biased story is how many times they say "WCW hired x and y, former WWE stars" and someone said they felt like WCW was cheating because of this. This is beyond stupid, it's like saying "Real Madrid cheated, they transferred Mesi from Barcelona and they won the title, booooooo".

Agreed; the same excuse is used with TNA whenever they sign a former WWE/WCW person.

True. Unfortunately, TNA was never real competition for WWE. And this is bad for us, viewers. During the "monday night wars", WWE dropped their PG crap and stepped up, to compete with WCW. With WCW gone, they don't have a real competitor, so they're back to their usual "bubble gum crap", as Big Show says. I will always regret WCW, because competition means a better product for people.

As for battery life, you get up to 30 hours on a single charge (up to 23 hours when using spatial audio).

    • Save 44% on Intuit QuickBooks Desktop Pro Plus 2024 (1 User for 1-Year)

      By fingletmein · Posted

      Keep in mind Intuit has lobbied like crazy to keep taxes complicated so they can continue to sell tax software. They also got caught hiding their legally mandated free version so they could release a second one that pushed countless people into charges they didn't need to pay to file. Intuit leads the charge on inventing problems so they can sell you the solution and disrespecting you in the process.
