Today, I recommend the last WCW PPV, Greed from 2001. A curiosity from a historical standpoint, and a decent show from a quality standpoint. Jason Jett vs. Kwee Wee, a very good tag match between Rey Mysterio & Billy Kidman and Elix Skipper & Kid Romeo, which was damn near match of the year quality, and the DDP/Scott Steiner main event was pretty good. WCW's last days had some crazy-ass backwards booking, but the talent on the roster could bring it. Check this show out.

    so they are showing Heenans HOF speach. I was stunned when they announced the lineups and his name was nowhere. Easily the best HOF speach.

    Here I was, thinking that I was done typing the word "Warrior". Silly me. New eps of RAW Flashback, a live Main Event, new Wrestlemania Rewind, and the new Best of Hall of Fame show. if anything has been added to the vault, the only way to tell is to actually go in and search all the shows. "Just Added" would be a big help.

    I am starting to lose interest in the network to some degree... I much prefer new original content to old PPV's... don't get me wrong I like having them there, but for the most part I have already seen everything I want to see and the new content they are adding isn't awful (aside from Legends House) but they replay it so much it is boring. I'll keep it for the PPV's and just the fact that the live stream makes for good background noise... but I am anxious for them to start using it to even greater potential than they are now.

    Really? Three Stages of Hell, TLC II and Rock/Austin all happened within a MONTH of this. A throwaway cruiserweight tag match somehow matches up to those? And let's not forget that Canadian Violence vs. the Power Trip, Benoit/Austin and Angle/Austin ALSO took place that year,

    I agree with this. I haven't even gotten near enough use out of it, however, just due to the fact that I don't have 3 hours to kill on an old PPV. The hardcores are clamoring for more old content and count me as one of them. Right now, the Network is like my Netflix account: a lot of stuff I want to watch, so they keep my money, but I don't near use it enough.

    "Damn near".....which is also subjective.

    Honestly watching the new PPV's is probably the only thing that will get them to keep my money next cycle.

    I was told yesterday on here that even when something is subjective you can be wrong.

    Not necessarily wrong, but you can still have highly questionable judgement.

    ex: Thinking the self-titled "Blink-182" was the most ambitious album of all time.

    I'm really getting tired of this snail's pace of adding content.

    I need suggestions..,.my sickness seems to push me towards chronological completion. I have been watching WWF on the network from 85 on and am no In the middle of 94. I started watching the RAWs along with it and I guess I got hooked because I have not enjoyed the 94 stuff as much without the build up. Also I'm a bit burned out I think, so I am considering a rest from this but not sure what else to watch. I'm kind of holding off on WCW/ECW also while hoping for more content, though I already have some of the ECW TV so I might be able to fill in some gaps and get started there.

    Thoughts or suggestions on what to watch?

    Going to skim the Warrior Greatest matches program. Watched WM 6 and 7 recently so just interested in what all is here and the interviews.
