WWE library going to YouTube for free
>>
>>19442102
>thinking the TKO jews are going to let everything go for free
>>
>>19442102
Is that not what the vault channel has already been doing for 2 years?
>>
I miss you WWE Network
>>
>>19442102
Honestly kinda surprised they don't already do this with entire library. If you've got a contract with any of these platforms and they want the old, just private the videos. If you don't have one, make them public and either rake in some ad-revenue (or be extra jewey and make it a members only sub).
>>
It's comfy shitposting with fellow marks during the live WWE YouTube channel
>>
>>19442102
They are pussies if they don't publish the Benoit matches.
>>
>>19442102
what does this actually mean? are they suddenly gonna upload all that old territory shit that was on the network?
>>
>>19442220
hopefully, they already have some nice stuff in the wwe vault from some territories
>>
>>19442217
I can't see them uploading anything involving Benoit, unless they turn comments off for said videos.
>>
>>19442102
It's going behind a paywall, isn't it?
>>
>>19442249
He won a Rumble
They can't get away from that
>>
>>19442268
Then what are the other full PLEs and episodes they posted on for FREE for? From the 2022 Survivor Series: WarGames to the 1992 Starrcade: BattleBowl plus most of the Black & Gold NXT and WCW shows?
I can see them slowly trickling out content like what they are now (just like what the news says). But if they are really needing cash like a greedy son of a bitch, I could see them add it as Membership-exclusive VODs and then one-by-one they'll open them up for free.
>>
>>19442600
>Bait and switch
Come on, anon. You know this. How many more times do you need to see it unfold before your eyes
>>
>>19442102
lmao its on netflix
>>
>>19442102
I'd say I'd only be there for Crockett and Mid-South/UWF but most of Watts' territory is already on YT. WWF never released any World Wide shows &, although the Techwood Dr shows had the top promos, WWWrestling actually showed important matches after they'd already taken place at the 'house shows'.
>>
>>19442175
we didn't know how good we had it 9.99chads
>>
Every episode of smackdown since 1999 in order
>>
Benoit?
>>
>>19442157
Supposedly the server costs are too high to host this stuff and no one wants to pay enough money to make it worthwhile. So they are putting it on youtube where they can get ad money from it.
>>
I started doing my own recordings when I saw that a bunch of stuff was going away. Unfortunately, I'm also working on or was doing NWA Powerrr and MLW too so I haven't gotten as much done as I want.

I'm really concerned about stuff like Superstars, Main Event and the more obscure stuff. I don't know when or if those are going to be uploaded.

I'm also still not even fully sure if all of this stuff is getting removed off of Peacock as only some WWE videos are set to expire.
>>
>>19442102
idk, having consistent ad revenue and none of the server costs sounds pretty smart to me, better than hoping people pay 10 bucks a month to pay for your cloud streaming service
>>
Wrestling libraries have no value.
>>
>>19442311
They will probably just upload every match from that card omitting the Rumble match itself to get around it. I hope i'm wrong though. Hasn't it been enough time already anyway? That shit happened 18 fucking years ago.
>>
kek thought aew was supposed to be the youtube feb? lmao
>>
They're about to make a thousand YT channels for all the territories kek
>>
>>19443910
I don't get the Benoit stuff at all. Nobody with a brain thinks WWE or any ad company supports what he did. And if you don't want to watch him, just skip ahead.

I get it. This is still the only stuff that made it into the "RAW Vault" on Netflix, it has a long way to go
>>
>>19442102
they've been putting a lot of stuff on the WCW and WWE Vault channels. but what are they going to do with the ECW stuff?
>>
>>19443941
Make an ECW channel obviously
>>
I'd be happy to pay for it but if they are offering it for free it must be the best business decision. I just hope the best for the company I love
>>
>>19442102
based tko with a rare good move
>>
>>19442102
>heavily censored and edited versions of Attitude Era and Ruthless Aggression Era content
yeah nah, ill pass. same reason why i didnt stay subbed to the network
>>
>>19444073
you could still see Tommy Dreamer motorboating Beulah and Kimona on the network, or Bubba calling fans faggots and cunts. I don't think YT will be cool with that.
>>
>>19442102
Can't wait to see the episode where Randy Orton found the WHC laying around backstage and declared himself champion

I’ll see it when I believe it.
>>
>>19442102
Holy fucking based
>>19442175
I do too but having this shit free on youtube is the best possible outcome if we can't have the original WWE Network back
>>
>>19442157
I mean they've already got a shit ton up on there. They've got an entire separate NXT channel I think where they've already started rolling out full episodes and ppvs
>>
>>19443938
How the fuck do they have digital copies of shit from over 2 decades ago but they don't have any of the Ruthless Aggression stuff or 2010's stuff? I literally started watching in late 2005.
>>
>>19444478
They had every RAW episode on the Network. You can still find them on pirate sites.
>>
You can paywall YouTube vids this doesn't mean it will be free
>>
They’re going to do this incredibly slowly and they’re gonna be weird about it because they’re not going to want to upload singular videos where Benoit is the focus. They’re gonna wait until like the very end if ever to put up like the 2004 rumble, mania XX etc. People thinking that this is going to go some great way and suddenly you’re gonna wake up in the entire WWE archive is going to be on like four channels that’s not gonna happen but they’re just gonna drip feed it till the end of time now.
>>
>>19442175
I miss the bitrate. Every other platform they've released the libraries on has made the video quality shittier time after time. YT might not be as bad as the others but there have always been problems with their bitrate where it slumps regularly.
>>
if any of these companies were smart they would do everything in the form of compilations. every match between any two wrestlers, storyline compilations, etc. its the best way to watch old content
>>
>>19442102
I've uploaded long stuff to YouTube before, imagine the poor intern that will have to sit there and babysit 3-4 hour video uploads one at a time
>>
>>19442311
Says who? They’ve already uploaded almost every rumble match other than del rio, benoit, vince and a few very recent ones. Why wouldn’t they be able to get around it? They’re not suddenly promising the entire archive. They’re slowly uploading shit show by show and match by match. It’s vastly inferior to the network and still inferior to peacock, so why couldn’t they get away with just never putting up the 2004 rumble? What the fuck is anyone gonna do about it?
>>
Does anyone really need or want this? The entire WWE library is pretty easy to find on pirate sites at this point. Plus navigating this stuff on Youtube would be a nightmare.
>>
>>19444644
Because it's a good way to make new fans
>>
>>19443941
>>19444073
They’re going to ignore it and you’ll deal with it. That’s the world of official archiving and shit these days. Eat shit and like it. Recdub is still out there at least.
>>
>>19442102
I have a 20tb HDD with everything I need available without an internet connection.
>>
>>19444199
It’s been happening for years dipshit. Literally every NXT takeover is on YouTube now free.
>>
>blood will be censored
>unprotected chairshots will be censored
>anything remotely racist/sexist will be censored
>no Benoit footage at all
>uploads will be sporadic and drawn out over years
>in order to make more money, they'll split it across multiple channels
>by the time they upload all the major shows (RAW, Smackdown, PPV's) Youtube will probably be dead and we'll start the process all over again
>>
>>19444701
All true I'm afraid.
>>
>>19444673
if you're not buying physical media or putting digitial media to offline storage then you're going to get what you deserve
>>
>>19442157
>it's da jooooz discourse in the big 25
Lmao
>>
>>19442102
if it's free that would be based but I do not trust the hebrews who own the WWE

Yeah they should have put it all on MAX instead. Oh wait, MAX is actually shut down and cancelled along with everything airing on it.
>>
>>19444478
they have them, they just haven't put them on netflix. netflix probably doesn't want to bother hosting stuff that isn't going to get views
>>
>>19444661
nobody asked about your CP collection
>>
>>19444664
Just wait and see, ya faggot.
>>
>>19443801
You're getting a much better value now.
