The following WWE related material, as I type, is available for instant streaming on Netflix.
Some or all may or may not be there next week, month or year, they constantly remove and add material.

WWE: Top 50 Superstars of All Time
WWE: The Rise & Fall of WCW
WWE: The John Cena Experience
WWE: Twist of Fate: Matt & Jeff Hardy
WWE: Breaking the Code...
WWE: Bobby "The Brain" Heenan
WWE: The Big Show: A Giant's World
Self-Destruction of the Ultimate Warrior
WWE: Hart & Soul: Hart Family Anthology
Ricky Steamboat: Life Story of the Dragon
The True Story of WrestleMania: Vol. 1
Hitman Hart: Wrestling with Shadows
Lipstick & Dynamite

Thats instant, a whole lot more available via DVD, including just about every PPV from the last decade.
So far, I have watched WWE: The Big Show: A Giant's World and The True Story of WrestleMania: Vol. 1, both were Ok.

I'm pumped about this. I started watching the top 50 superstars dvd and I've looked at the WCW one a bit. I wish they'd start putting PPVs on there but it's doubtful. Certainly quite a bit of nice material though.

Watched the true story of WM, and wrestling with Shadows. Both great. Hopefully Netflix starts putting the older ppv from 04 on instant play.

is the UW movie any good? feedback?

 

[XrayZen]

Yeah, PPV would be nice, probably not gonna happen.
You would think VM would realize he has long ago milked them dry, and the extra exposure they'd get streaming might encourage people to buy current PPV's.

The Ultimate Warrior one (not available on Insta-Que on my list actually) is just a roast reminding everyone that Vince hates the guy. A lot of what they say is true, but its just a very one sided story telling you that UW was a giant asshole who couldn't wrestle. I found it redundant

Just saw the one on Hart, never realized the bad feelings ran so deep over the "screw job".
I can certainly see how Hart felt he was screwed, on the other hand, its VM's company, and he was free to do whatever he wished with the characters.

ya I agree, I finally watched it last week, and while I can see where Brett was coming from and that he did not expect to lose, he was also in a character role on a show, and he took it way too personally.

and that what I figured about the UW DVD

 

[DanTheMan07]

I've seen the Rise and fall of the WCW, The True Story of Wrestlemania and the Chris Jericho one. All great.

hopefully they continue to add more stuff

I prefer WWE Classics on Demand. Bunch of PPVs, TV Classics, specials, etc.

Plus I don't have a Netflix subscription. lol

Well with Hart, he was bound & determined not to lose the title in Canada. He said over and over, that would be like blowing his brains out. Since his last gig with WWE was in Canada, and Vince didn't want Hart to take the belt to WCW, I don't see what choice VM had.
One the one hand, a star that forcefully says he would not under any circumstances agree to a title change. On the other, the show and the company must go on ,, So a choice like that is a no brainer. Do you indulge the vanity of a departing star, or do whats best for the company ?
I'm sure there must be various "screw job" threads here, the subject never really interested me until I saw this.
I don't remember many of the details, as I was in the military at the time ,,, I do remember seeing the bloody Austin match, which was the start of Harts anti-USA heel turn.

Probably true.
So many people have netflix these days, thought some here might be unaware of the WWE content there. I've had it for over a year, never thought to search around for it until I just by chance ran into the BigShows video.

 

[XrayZen]

Watched the 50 greatest last night, pretty long at 2.5 hours.
Had alot of commentary from various personalities throughout, some like Cena, Kofi and Miz kept reappearing for many picks, others spoke just once or twice.
Especially interesting to me were comments from George "The Animal" Steele, a guy I remember well as a kid in the late 70's. First time I have ever seen him talk out of character.

i think Classics on Demand is also a better service but NetFlix has become quite large in distributing WWE as of late

 

[NoLeafClover]

I've really enjoying all of these on Netflix. A lot of those documentaries, I wanted to see when they came out, but wasn't going to buy them.

Just watched The True Story of WM and Big Show's one. The Mania one is very very well done. I encourage and newer fan that is getting into the product recently or over the last 5 or so years, to watch that documentary to have a true appreciation for it has become today.

 

[XrayZen]

I'm sure Classics on Demand is more comprehensive, but I would venture to guess that Netflix has more subscribers, and perhaps is cheaper.
I wouldn't get Classics on Demand specifically for WWE content ,, What is that service, through Comcast ?
One thing I do not need is a higher cable bill, thats 4 sure.

 

[thefzk]

I love the documentaries on Netflix but the WWE stuff isn't available in Canada, sucks.

 

[Ham and Egger]

Eh I'll probably catch the Brain dvd. They need to put PPVs on there imo.

 

[KontaKt]

yeah PPV would be awesome if they where on there

 

[drunkenbastard]

i use both classics and netflix...classics is good for shit right away but for burning dvds netflix is the way to go...im alright with not havin more wwe streams on netflix considering netflix has a very large wwe library not to mention tna also on dvds

 

[XrayZen]

No doubt Netflix would like to stream PPV, VM must still be milking some $$ out of them.
