http://24-7.wwe.com/ :drool: This is that "click here" link at the end.

[Azriel]

So, wait, it is or it isn't a TV station?

[Loose Cannon]

Yeah, I think it is TV. My bad.

[Loose Cannon]

Wait, now I'm confused. Is it TV?

[Azriel]

It says call your cable operator, so I imagine it must be

[Loose Cannon]

Yeah, it is. I thought it was only Internet for some reason. Dam, I'm like never leaving my house again :lol:

[Azriel]

I know, it would be so awesome to have that channel.

[Loose Cannon]

yep, my cable co. carries it. Guess I will be watching in October :D

[Gone Mad]

Wow, I gotta check if my cable comp. will carry this. We got a couple empty channels now so maybe one will be the WWE channel. This channel sounds awesome!

[Lara Emily]

Any idea if it's coming to Canada

[Head]

I wonder if this'll come in on my black box.

[mrslackalack]

I hope it comes on Directv Basic.

[Head]

I doubt it would come in on any basic package.

[Hardkore Kidd J]

Damn it just another channel I don't get and probably will have to wait to move out of my house to get. :'( But, it sounds great. This sounds like one of the great things WWE did for their fans.

[Xero]

It's saying "On Demand", leading me to believe that this is a PPV type thing... Is it going to be a normal channel, a pay channel, or PPV?

**Goes to check cable company's site**

If I have to get digital cable, God fucking Damnit, I'm getting Digital cable!

:drool:

[Volchok]

damn this sucks.. i dont have cable..i have friggin dish network this blows the big one..

[loopydate]

That video was the sexiest thing I've seen in a looooooooooooong time.

Honestly, I may never leave my house again.

[DaveWadding]

That video was the sexiest thing I've seen in a looooooooooooong time.

Honestly, I may never leave my house again.
:love: :y:

[The CyNick]

F*&%, now I have to quit my job

[sensai86]

:love: :y: It don't get any better.

[MVP]

I'm going to flunk all my classes and not make any money if I get this cause I won't be able to stop watching.

[HeartBreakMan2k]

omg ECW ECW ECW

[Savio]

I don't think I have digital cable :(

[Lara Emily]

F*&%, now I have to quit my job
Is it coming to Canada?

[Loose Cannon]

LOL, I'm going to fail my classes via never showing up.

I can see it now.

Tuesday 10/8/04 8:30 a.m.

LC: Oh, I have 2 tests today Gotta be at school by 9:30

LC: Hey look, Halloween Havoc 89 is on. I guess I'll watch a little.

**3 hours later

LC: FUCK

[Dorkchop]

If I can get this, I'll probably have to break up with my girlfriend. Well no, but our relationship will suffer. Hello doggy style.

[loopydate]

omg ECW ECW ECW
The first big mark-out for me during the video was that second-and-a-half where they showed Taz (no extra "Z") just standing there with his arms crossed.

They had me at "beat me if you can, survive if I let you."

[Loose Cannon]

My favorite part was when they showed Nash, Hall, and Syxx all together saying something. Original Wolfpac = :yes:

[.44 Magdalene]

It's like Vince McMahon just gave fans everywhere one giant, simultaneous blowjob.

[loopydate]

My favorite part was when they showed Nash, Hall, and Syxx all together saying something. Original Wolfpac = :yes:
They were saying "Too sweeeeeeet!"

[Loose Cannon]

^^yeah, that's right. Does anybody know how to order this? It starts next Thursday and I can't find anything on where to get it. I checked my In Demand Stations for next week and it's not listed.

[loopydate]

I wish they would have listed the cable companies that are offering this.

My company's website only has the stations they already carry, with no information on any channels coming soon. I know for a fact that we're getting a WB station in the near future, because we get commercials for it all the time, but there's literally no mention of it on the company's site.

I want this station so bad, but I doubt it'll help me in my quest for employment if I'm sitting around all day watching the Wrestlemania IV title tournament.

[The CyNick]

Is it coming to Canada?

I have Rogers Digital, so I e-mailed them and asked them, dont know about anything else like Bell or whatever. BUt I figure with wrestling being as popular as it is up here, they'd be crazy not to carry. Hell if we can get Al Jazzera we should be able to get WWE 24/7.

[Innovator]

fuck, now I have to fail out of college so I can be at home and watch wrestling all day long

[Champion of Europa]

I hate On Demand. It costs some dolla dolla bills. Everything has to be ordered all seperately. Like you have to pick and choose. Not exactly a wrestling channel as much as it is PPV.

[Loose Cannon]

No, but you pay like $6-10 a month and you get everything. It's not a pick and choose.

[Evolution]

Will Sky carry it in UK?

[Champion of Europa]

No, but you pay like $6-10 a month and you get everything. It's not a pick and choose.

It's video on demand, just like all the movies on demand channels. You pick and choose. It's not Pay TV.

[Loose Cannon]

Then what does this mean. This is off a website that had an article about it.

WWE 24/7's suggested rate of $6 to $10 per month - well above the $4.95 or less charged for premium SVOD services - is a clear differentiator, but one that Berreca said operators haven't totally rebuffed.

I don't know, you could be right, but I'm not sure. It says it's a subscription thing.

[Hired Hitman]

that would own. I've always said (well i'm saying it now) they have all the film, why not show it somehow.

It sounds like it's a $6-$10 addition to your cable bill, so that you can order these long ass PPVs and shows for like $4 per show or something. That's along the lines of how On Demand works.

But I could be wrong too, but most of the things I've read have pretty much shown its gonna be Video On Demand and not an actual channel.

[Jacko]

Will Sky carry it in UK?

Give it a few months, and it could happen.

But i'm not sure it would be on demand, but monthly payments.

[Lara Emily]

Let me know what they say.

[The Mackem]

It's like Vince McMahon just gave fans everywhere one giant, simultaneous blowjob.
LOL

[Evolution]

Kinda like NASN then. If Sky get it I will drop straight the hell outta college. Can't wait for the classic stuff, things like nWo running the show, DX invading Nitro, David Arquette winning the WCW title. Er, I mean, all things have slight drawbacks, like we will see David Arquette winning the WCW title again.:shifty:

[Champion of Europa]

It was believed that WWE 24/7 would start in October, but latest word is the service is still months away from launching. The programs listed at 24-7.wwe.com is apparently just an example. [wrestlingobserver.com]
