mcmahon called the kid a special olympian and mentally challenged. he'd probably get roasted in the media had he said that today. (unless he was actually an olympian)

The Network has been choppy for me all night. I did some speed tests on my internet connection and, based on the results, it looks like the poor quality is due to my internet connection. I am topping out around 4.5 Mbps. This makes me a little weary of relying on the Network to watch 'Mania next week. I live in a smaller town and it seems like the internet always slows down on certain nights of the week.

I'd like to be able to watch 'Mania and drink a few beers at my place, but I am considering driving to my mom's and setting up shop at her house due to the higher quality of internet speeds in her town.

What's the chances of network failure during mania?

Further above zero than I'm comfortable with, but it is what it is.

Seriously though I dunno, you'd think they'd be ready for it but it's obv gonna be by far the most traffic they've had so far.

Its an interesting scenario. You see massive problems during launches of major video game titles because it doesnt make economical sense to pay for the server load to handle the initial peak since itll never reach that level again. BUT, Wrestlemania not working correctly would be a disaster Id think. Especially since it effects future sales

They should have tested it with Elimination Chamber first, imo. Certainly the audience would be smaller, but it's the closest thing you could get to a Mania-level audience. Honestly, I'm expecting disaster.

Or maybe they should have tested with the Royal Rumble. But I don't think the network was ready to launch then.

yeah also expecting network disaster.

Tech savvy gentlemen like ourselves won't have a problem finding a river though so I ain't worried

I am sort of expecting to watch WrestleMania on like Monday or Tuesday because I think it could be unbearable to watch (if it works at all) on Sunday. However I am planning to commit (gulp) six hours to WrestleMania on Sunday despite our family moving in 5 days from there.

I'm a little more "whatever" when it comes to wrestling, as in I watch Raw during the week and I MAY see Smackdown over the weekend but usually not. However, I totally get why the network failing during the biggest event of the year would be a **** storm, but being I'm expecting such things, it's easier to handle.

not sure if it's a ps4 thing or a disko internet connecting thing but whenever i watch the live stream my feed will skip 2 seconds backwards every so often. not nearly bad enough to turn it off but its a pain in the ass for sure.

XBox 360 had an update today, it helped the layout/navigability a bit and finally fully fixed the issue of missing WCW PPVs which is nice, though unfortunately there are still no search bubbles in the shows themselves.

I'm the same way. If I can watch Mania, cool. If I can't because of crashing or something, I don't really care. I'll watch it the next day, or maybe not at all.

The android tablet app updated at some point, and is now searchable. Great great fix.

seeing flair talking about his "last" match at maina in orlando, and then he broke down. very powerful stuff. very powerful. you could tell that he really did not want to talk about it, but had to, and once he started talking, it was over. they showed his family on the screen and then he broke down again when they showed him hugging his late son reid. automatic recommend.
