Here is something I wish they would do to go with the Monday Night War, do a grouping of each week so you can watch the Raw and Nitro for that week.  I know you could do the same thing by looking in the Raw and Nitro groups, but if you put them together it would make it easier.
 
I loved when you had both on at the same time and this would put a little addition for the MNW concept

I think they should put as many of the old shows as possible in their old timeslot on the live stream (WCW Saturday Night, Sunday Night Heat, Thunder, ECW on TNN, etc.)

I can't remember, but did Thunder compete with Smackdown?  Both were on Thursdays I thought for a time, but can't remember it was at the same time like Raw/Nitro

Smackdown started out opposite Thunder. Thunder then moved to Wednesday I think.

Not sure what's going on, but Main Event is making a name for itself the last two weeks with really good matches. Last week it was Paige vs. Nikki Bella, and this weeks unexpected "better than anything on RAW" match was New Day vs. Adam Rose, Cesaro, and Tyson Kid. Some really awesome spots here, including one near the end which may be the best rasslin' spot I've seen on WWE TV this year so far.

And as icing on the cake, one of the Rosebuds gets the Torgo Seal of Approval, ifyouknowwhatimsayin'!

Check it out!

Tyson Kidd is really amazing currently, right?  It's not only me?  Him wearing that retarded cat ear hoodie for NXT last week was priceless

I was just gonna mention his obsession with his cats is one of the best things going, and the cat ear hood was fucking hilarious.

Main Event is done, isn't it?  On hiatus at least, I believe.

It's still shown in the UK, so they couldn't show it live on The Network. My hunch is it will get the Raw treatment where you have to wait 30 days.

That's what I read. But I think they just can't show it live. The latest episode was up by the next day so either it starts next week or they just can't show it live.

They say on the show that because of contractual obligations, Main Event won't be seen on the Network going forward or whatever.  Then they push Santino's favorite Rumble moments for next week instead

I just had my first experience with the WWE dubbing in generic music, while I was watching old ECW Pay-Per-Views. So horrible. :(

Signed up tonight (UK subscriber) just to get the Rumble. Will probably watch it tomorrow night in its entirety, watching GAB 90 just now. Have never seen the Tommy Rich v Brian Pillman opener. The copy I always had on VHS started with the Southern Boys vs Rock n Rolls. Or was it The Young Pistols by then?

So as much as I love the content on this Network I fully understand why it isn't taking off.  It's been out a year and they are still having the same goddamn technical issues.  For the last few months it won't work for me on Chrome again.  Not a big deal as we have a Samsung Smart TV with the Network App so we've been using that.  Tonight during the Rumble we paused the stream to get food.  When we came back and restarted we lost connection.  So we tried restarting the stream from the beginning and fast forwarding to where we were except like all other times I've tried doing this the night of the PPV it WON'T restart the stream from the start.  Been trying to get this damn PPV playing again for the last 2 hours....

EDIT: Have tested on Firefox and have to go into the PPV section itself to watch from the start and it is letting me jump ahead.  Chrome still not working.  TV App still not working right either though.  This has been an ongoing issue for me on multiple computers and streaming devices for the entire year the network's been out.

I was getting some loading issues on my Roku. So I eventually decided, in the first match, to restart the show and be about 4 minutes behind. Didn't have any other problems after that.

So, get a Roku?

Ever since the major issues I had on the Roku at network startup, I have not had really any problems.  I had one backskip(buffer) issue last night, but wasn't a big deal.
 
I've just had good luck with the network on Roku.
