how did you used to watch ppvs?

[Kang Deezy]

were they fans themselves? 79 bucks a pop monthly and my uncle saw it was rarely worth it


i would have had to avoid raw so wouldn't have worked

Nope they were not

Watching the morning show on the weekend with my grandfather is how I got into it tho

Hotbox - first ppv: wrestlemania 7; last ppv: summerslam 2002

We used to have those black boxes. It was so simple to set up. After that, FTA. Nowadays, i use the internet.

 

[flashingn1ghts]

had no internet when i was like 10-13 so i bought the ppv DVDs when they came out here on like a 6 months delay lmao

exactly how it was

storylines were 5 times changed and they were tag teaming on superstars anyway

Black box was a god send once wwe started in your house and wcw expanded ppv as well.

When we got the hookup my mother was ok with the wrestling but not the spice and playboy channels and told my pops to unhook the box when wrestling wasn't on, his response "my boys aint growing up to be no fukking fakkits'

Free ppv movies,wrestling and porn

I never had cable as a kid so all I got was the occasional PPV on Channel 4 that I set to record at 1am on VHS

Rumble 2000, Armageddon 2000, Rumble 2001, fed off scraps breh

It was funny because Channel 4 was supposed to be the ''edgy'' channel, one glimpse of Mae Young and they were like Started airing the other PPVs on a delay and then got rid of wrestling completely

That black box life>>>>>>>>>

We always had cable but never the cable box until I was 15 or so. That's when I started begging my parents to order PPVs for me.

Before that, I had a good two year run in the early '90s eating off all of the PPVs for free. We had an old B&W TV with a UHF dial and I was able to wiggle the antennae around to get picture perfect sound and video quality.

I didn't watch them at all, just had to wait until Raw/Smackdown after to see what happened. I didn't start following wrestling closely until 05. 06 I just checked online the Monday after, then I stumped upon dirtsheets

 

[Vilhena]

Not gonna lie it was listening through the scrabble screen. We got good glimpses of what was going on plus the audio was thoro.

Black box with the red digital numbers...

Next day bootleg wave.

My ppv channels where 62-66 all we had to do was spot the cable guy a 50
