Hi guys was wondering where youwatch the weekly shows as they're not on the networki looked on sky to upgrade to sky and because I'm already on a deal with them to add sky sports it's going to cost an extra £40 which I can't afford being a student
Thanks everyone

I use WWE's YouTube channel for highlights. They get the important segments there and you miss out the filler stuff.

I use a vpn (£5p/m) and HULU plus (£7pm) there is a cheaper option on hulu with add breaks, hulu has the weekly shows and cuts out a lot of the filler crap on RAW too.

I thought that was enjoyable (WOS), better than I imagined it was going to be, and one thing I especially liked was the lighting, far better things being bright, and being able to see the crowd, than them being in the dark.

A good authoritarian figure as well.

Overall, I wouldn't mind seeing that as a regular weekend thing.
The show was ok just felt a bit it was too americanised to WWE style.

Just google watchwrestling

It's a great site where you can watch the full shows in 720p quality.

Watched WOS yesterday.

One thing that especially stood out was how obvious it was that the WWE never replaced JR on comms. He made every match on that show seem like the Mania main event. MR on Smackdown is great but Cole never stepped up.

Still baffles me that Cole is seen as the #1 commentator in WWE these days. WWE haven't exactly been so generous in rewarding loyalty in the past, so god knows why they stick by him so stubbornly.

Cole has been a terrible commentator, even during the attitude era replacing JR. Im suprised hes lasted as long as he has.

Cole is Cena's mate backstage. Hence, him being the number 1 lead. It was interesting that MR called the Summerslam main event though instead of MC.

I think if Taker was around more, JR may have lasted longer. Taker even requested JR commentate on his matches at Mania during his feuds with HBK and HHH.

Cole is there because he's an obedient buzzword machine.

Isn't also because Vince sees him as "legit" having done real news correspondence.

Finally watching some of this World Of Sport. Camera work is like Kevin Dunn on speed. Dreadful.

Wrestlemania 34 is going back to New Orleans. Wish they went somewhere new personally, with them back in Orlando this year and now going back to New Orleans next year and looking like they could go back to Miami the year after.

I would love it to be held at the new stadium in Minnoesta, it looks awesome

Wow, that stadium looks amazing. It'd make for a great atmosphere, especially with a closed roof. That's one thing that bugs me about the topless stadiums, takes away too much noise.

I did love the conviction with which he stated he always wanted to go to Blackpool in January.

I noticed last week that the show switched to Sky Sports 4 (instead of 5). Could that have an effect? No idea otherwise. I record manually too.

Who cares about the noise if the women are topless

Great seaside town and the fantastic venue of character the shows are in are way better than the soul less arenas we see week in week out that all look the same like they are done with an identikit. This praise wasn't easy though coming from the Yorkshire side of the Pennines ☺
