THE WWE NETWORK IS NOW AVAILABLE IN THE UK

I've come home from work and I am sat watching Summerslam 2013 on the WWE Network via my Xbox One.


It finally happened! It's here!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well it's 6 days early then Can't even get the date right

Haha yes I'm in. What the f*ck do I watch first! My family and friends ain't gonna see me for 6 years.

Mate it's unbelievable. Didn't realise just how much there was. Even if you took out all the PPV's it's still full of amazing content.

So far I have watched this week's Main Event, the first episode of Monday Night Wars and an episode of Smackdown from 1999*. Next up is Rivalries: Austin v McMahon.

*For anyone who is a fan of the Attitude Era like me, then go on 12 Days Of Attitude. You get to watch whole episodes of Raw and Smackdown from that time period. I watched the one where The Corporate Ministry first form. The main event is The Rock and Stone Cold v Triple H and The Undertaker.

This is awesome.

Hey guys first time poster long time lurker from back in the old 606 days.

Been trying to get the network working but can't seem to figure out how to set up PayPal as payment. Anyone else paying this way and had any problems?

Can't wait to get this setup to get torn into the 99-01 ppvs. Hopefully be posting regularly thanks to a more civilised shift pattern at work!

Not sure about PayPal mate I just put my card details in

ive only got a maestro debit card so looks like the missus visa will be getting used for this!

How's everyone finding it so far?

Brilliant. Watched a couple of matches from PPV's but mostly been watching documentaries and other original programming.

Been watching it for 2 days straight now. Love it. I only just found out you get the documentaries as well such as Ladies & Gentlemen My Name Is Paul Heyman which I was gonna buy. At the moment though I am having to watch it all on my phone. My laptop is sh*t slow so I never bother with that and at the moment I don't think it is on gaming consoles. I certainly can't find it anywhere on my 360. The WWE Network UK Twitter account said it should be sorted by 19th.

Do me a favour lads, if any of you notice that it is now on the consoles then post in here to let us know. I will do likewise.

It's on the PS4 Well the badge is anyway just says Please Wait so far....

Been watching on PS4 for two days now, it's an amazing service

Yeah I got on my xbox one. That's where I noticed it was available. If you go to the app section on the store and search WWE, that's your best chance of finding it.

I'm sticking by my US version as it's cheaper, £6.50 direct debit, even the next few months and it's paid for the Royal Rumble and Wrestlemania, plus NXT and archive stuff.

With WWE Network and my mum's Sky Go account it's much cheaper than paying for Sky

Quick question? If I subscribe now? Will the money be taken out of my account now or will it come out in 15 days time?

I am tempted to sign up, my main thinking is to try and get my son into wrestling, he is only four but watches the odd episode of RAW and I think he would really enjoy some of the older stuff - The less extreme bits of course

Now, as you pay for your month in advance.

general question.

If I buy it now does it run out end of January or 30 days from now?

If you buy now the first payment is the 29th January and runs until the end of February

(source: email from WWE after I signed up)

So money doesn't get taken out now then.

I signed up last night and it said the first payment was 15 days after my initial sign up, the I think its every 30 days thereafter, could be wrong, trying to find the wrestling roundtables though

Kay Fabe is right. You get billed 15 days after sign up and every 30 days after that.

Just found it now. I was searching wrong. The level of awesomeness has increased. Thanks.

Watched Royal Rumble 2000 and the CM Punk documentary.

Awesome service. Currently watching royal rumble 2000. Can't believe it's just 9:99 a month!

I got billed on the day - it does say billing is from 15 days from date of sign up however money was taken from my banl account immedietly

Anyone know how many devices the WWE Network allows?

Officially: one. Actually: at least 3 last time I checked.

I've used my PS4, Laptop and I Phone.

I believe have you can watch the it on as many as you want but live PPV's can only be watched on one.

So next week with the Rumble I can either watch it by myself live or wait until the following evening to let the kids watch it as well but I can't do both?

That is going to be hard to not see any spoilers for all of Monday.

I think it might be only one device while the program is live. As soon as the PPV is finished it goes to On Demand so you can watch it again on any device.

I think you can watch it on Sunday on laptop, then watch repeats Monday say on ps4 (or whatever)

Just you can't watch it on laptop and ps4 at same time

That is an unbelievably stupid question Rich!!!

It is an absolute steal at a tenner a month.

I reckon I'm the only person in the whole world who started with the 1993 Royal Rumble. In my defence, I'd never seen it.

I didn't know how quickly it would then appear afterwards to view, it wasn't mentioned that it was only one device at the time it was live, just that it could be viewed only on one, I misread that as once rather than one. I apologise for the schoolboy error!

I started with Wrestlemania 17, going to be honest for all it's plaudits of being the best ever Mania it did make for painful viewing at times. Quite glad that wrestling has moved away from the head shots and blading looking back on it.

Ahhh I remember watching the 93 Rumble when I got home from wherever my mum and dad took me too after School on the Monday and the shivers I got when I seen Giant Gonzalas, Marty Jannetty not winning the IC Title broke my heart

Will I be able to watch the Rumble anytime I want next Monday? Will it be available ASAP?

I would imagine so

Thats not the decisive answer I was hoping for Nick

As soon as the PPV is finished its live production it goes to the on demand section and you can view it whenever you want.

Cheers Samo thats brilliant, thanks mate

The 2 PPVs I have wached so far are Summerslam 04 and Rebellion 00. Mostly been watching 12 Days Of Attitude, Monday Night Wars, Rivalries and Countdown.

Was about to ask this very question and its already been answered. Thanks Samo.

Feared it would be the same as the Raw/Smackdown episodes, which take 30 days to go on demand.

I hope that everyone who's just got the Network has caught up with NXT R-Evolution, which was definitely in the top 2 WWE PPVs last year.

I have a few questions I hope someone could answer

So if I signed up today the first payment would come out at the end of Jan?

Is there adverts before every thing you watch?

Is it spoiler free? for example plan to watch the rumble the morning after, if I log on the network it wont have plastered all over it who wont the rumble etc?

its non commitment, so I could join just for a month then cancel by direct debit and quit? can you sign up again?

Thanks

No ads, just a little family warning thing and a WWE "Then Now Forever"
Spoiler free every time I've done it, just go in through the Network not the WWE site. Which is easy on your phone and PS4 etc.
I do believe its non commitment

Has anyone who had signed up prior to the UK launch had trouble accessing the Network? When I try to log in on my iPad it gives me an error. Though there is no problem with the email and password. I'm just wondering if it learnt where I am using the location function and is now stopping my access. No biggy as obviously I can now sign up to the UK version. Just wondering.

I havent as of yet

Well that's what it's done to me.

One thing you do have to be careful of spoiler-wise is when you're watching an event on demand, on the progress bar at the bottom are little markers so you can move forward/backwards to a specific point on the show. The problem is, when you hover over it, instead of saying when a match ends, it literally tells you the finish.

So if you were watching Wrestlemania 30 and were looking for the end of the Brock-Undertaker match, if you hover over the marker it would say 'Brock pins Undertaker for the win'.

I've had to be really careful when watching old shows where I don't know/remember the match finishes.
