I signed up to the WWE Network, it is out now though the official date I think was this Monday. It's worth giving it a go as it's free for 14 days, you just need to submit with a Credit or Debit card. Must say it is the best £9.99 I could spend (well as and when it comes up for renewal), it has many old RAW and Smackdown episodes, though don't expect everyone. Between the years 1997 - 2001 there are literally 15 or so. But those ones are the key moments, like where DX invade the WCW or Stone Cold hunts down Booker T in the a grocery store. They are all mostly unedited and have none of the blurred out WWF logos, it's all there. It even has the 1999 Over the Edge PPV where Owen Hart fatally died. It cuts that segment out, but it is a PPV I have never seen.
It does bring it home how much the WWE has changed. For me now, RAW is too long and so are the matches. Watching old RAW the matches are about 10-15 minutes top, but have more 'storyline' between them. Much more interesting. Also for me, I don't know if anyone agrees, but the US crowds these days seem dead. The ones back in '99 '00 are bouncing off the roof just on the first match. The only good RAW you get these days is the one after Wrestlemania. Anyway if anyone wants cheap new PPV's and a chance to see the classic PPV's from 1986 right though the Attitude era to now, I would get it. Just for the free 14 days. Well worth it.
