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.

    • Louis Rossmann suing Samsung over "990 Pro SSD warranty scam"

      By AsherGZ · Posted

      He has planned to file a lawsuit in small claims court so it'll only be a $1000 lesson assuming he wins. That's likely a fraction of what Samsung spends on toilet paper on a daily basis.
    • Windows Server gets DNS over HTTPS (DoH) support

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Windows Server gets DNS over HTTPS (DoH) support by Usama Jawad For the past few months, Microsoft has been previewing DNS over HTTPS (DoH) for Windows DNS Server, touting it as a foundational upgrade for zero-trust enterprise networks. It essentially introduces encrypted, authenticated DNS for the networks rather than transmitting DNS traffic in clear. Now, the company has introduced the general availability (GA) of this feature. The GA of DoH encourages organizations to deploy the solution in production environments without implementing a new client-to-resolver architecture. DoH helps improve the overall security of the network and reduces the risk of spoofing due to its zero-trust design. This is a significant change because pretty much every interaction with the network requires interfacing with DNS. DoH offers several advantages over standard DNS traffic, such as encryption using HTTPS, preventing unauthorized inspection, man-in-the-middle attacks, and traffic analysis. Since it leverages TLS certificates so that clients can verify the identity of the DNS server, it prevents spoofing through this authentication mechanism. Additionally, it's built on the DoH standard defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), which means that it should work with modern RFC 8484-compliant clients. Finally, it integrates into the existing network architecture seamlessly and can even run in parallel with standard DNS, so that customers can migrate to the new technology at their own pace. Microsoft says that in the past few months of preview, DoH has become more stable, and customers can confidently deploy it in production environments with proper guidance. Microsoft has emphasized that migrating to DoH is necessary for organizations that are moving toward zero-trust DNS solutions. Windows clients already support DoH, but the latest availability on Windows Server provides encrypted DNS to all endpoints. The company has also mentioned that "while this release focuses on encrypting client-to-resolver communication, support for encrypted communication between Windows DNS Server and upstream DNS resolvers is planned for a future update." You can follow Microsoft's guidance to deploy DoH here, but keep in mind that you need a Windows Server 2025 installation with the latest Patch Tuesday updates installed.
