WWE Network Thread

Set up a US account on my ps3 and downloaded the network app. Now to get someone in the States to sign me up on Monday :P

I wonder would using a virtual Credit Card(like entropy) would work since your paying in $. Hopefully It will be like Hulu Plus because I have no problem using my Irish Credit Card when paying that sub

Vinz Mesrine

So could someone run me through how to get this on my ps3 tomorrow, is it going to be possible? Hopefully it's as easy as getting the US Netflix was but I doubt it.

We wont know till tomorrow. The potential problem is that you will probably have to sign up with an American credit card.

Entropay says its Visa's are verified by Visa europe so could be in trouble there.

We won't know until tomorrow though!

Tuesday our time. The network launches after Raw tomorrow night. I would love to be able to sign up to it but I have a horrible feeling we won't be able to. Fingers, toes and hair strands crossed tho.

C'mon Vince take my money

Launches at 9AM tomorrow (eastern time I think). You'll be able to access the catalogue and all then but the 24/7 channel bit launches after Raw.

Tomorrow at 2pm GMT. Card details at the ready. Tunnelbear topped up! :P :P

As much as I know I will purchase the network, Im in no rush to get it. I can wait a week or so if it becomes available some how.

If anyone gets it working tomorrow - PM me

Thanks

I'd say the servers won't be able to handle it at first and it could be very slow for the first few days.

Same here guys! Any luck let me know what avenues ye go thru!

Itssoeasy

I know it's only in the us from tomorrow but I'm going to try and see how I get on. The worst that can happen is they not let me sign up.

Will the pre-shows be on the Network?

They are utilising MLB's infrastructure. Given that MLB are currently in the off season I'd say they will have loads of bandwidth spare.

Plus, for now its just people signing up and maybe watching some on demand content.

Can you imagine when all those people are streaming live WrestleMania at the same time? That would be a bigger concern, but even so MLB.tv are used to this kind of thing so I don't think it will be a problem.

Was just thinking if they do allow international credit cards, can you imagine how much that would skew the results when they announce US subscriber numbers? A lot better than expected, for sure!

Read on twitter last night that in the latest issue of FSM they will tell you how to get the network over here. Anyone with this months issue know what it said?

I guess we will find out come 2p.m. our time.

I managed to download the WWE Network App to my PS3 last night, via my American Account - really hope that my Irish Credit Card will work though. If so, Sky Sports is getting dropped like a bad habit!

The Ayatolla

Any idea how to set up a USA PS3 account?

Edit, just managed it!

Is anyone else having problems with WWE.com?

Create a new account on your PS3 then sign up for PSN. Put your location as the US instead of Ireland.

I've just seen there that you can pay via Paypal - would this mean that there would be no need to fret over getting an American Debit / Credit card?

The Ayatolla
