Triple H vs. Daniel Bryan, at WrestleMania 30 in New Orleans

The show features Triple H facing Daniel Bryan for the right to join the threeway battle with Randy Orton and Batista for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, The Undertaker placing his undefeated WrestleMania streak on the line against Brock Lesnar, John Cena fighting for his legacy against Bray Wyatt, The Shield versus Kane and New Age Outlaws, a Fatal Fourway to decide the tag team championship, a 30 man, over-the-top rope battle royal in honor of Andre the Giant and AJ Lee defending her Divas championship against 13 other women.

Ever since SummerSlam, Triple H, his wife Stephanie McMahon and his various allies in The Authority have confounded Daniel Bryan’s attempts to climb the WWE mountain because they say he is a B+ player…and decidedly not best for business. It took utilizing his fans and almost taking Raw off the air, but The Beard finally has Hunter’s attention. Though he paid for it with a brutal beating at the hands of The Game, Bryan has a shot a revenge at WrestleMania when he faces Haitch, with a chance to compete for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship on the line.

The man who has held the WWE title since SummerSlam (and who unified that belt with the WHC when he defeated John Cena at TLC), Randy Orton, and the 2014 Royal Rumble winner, Batista, were none too pleased with the Chief Operating Officer’s decision regarding Bryan. Having had enough of their complaining, The King of Kings decided that not only would he defeat the bearded upstart, but he’d end the whining of his former Evolution followers by entering the triple threat himself and claiming the titles.

WWE Wrestling Network Debut Press Conference, Las Vegas

WWE Network, the first-ever 24/7 streaming network for wrestling content, will be launched live in the U.S. on Feb. 24, and will feature all 12 World Wrestling Entertainment, or WWE, live pay-per-view events.

The network’s debut was officially announced by Vince McMahon, WWE’s chairman and CEO, at the CES 2014 in Las Vegas, and he was joined at the announcement by popular wrestlers John Cena, Shawn Michaels, Stone Cold Steve Austin and Triple H.

 “Today is a historic day for WWE as we transform and reimagine how we deliver our premium live content and 24/7 programming directly to our fans around the world,” McMahon said. “WWE Network will provide transformative growth for our company and unprecedented value for our fans.”

 The WWE Network will include “WrestleMania,” which will be made available for $9.99 a month with a 6-month commitment. At launch, the network will include original programming, reality shows, classic wrestling matches, and more than 1,500 hours of archived programming, which will include uncut and uncensored video libraries of World Championship Wrestling and Extreme Championship Wrestling.

The network will be available on desktops and laptops via WWE’s website. It will also be made available to fans through the WWE app on Android devices; iOS devices like Apple iPad and iPhone; Amazon’s Kindle Fire; Roku streaming devices; Sony PS3 and PS4; and Xbox360. The network will also be available on additional devices like Xbox One and select Smart TVs, after a few months of its launch.

 The second-screen experience, which will be made available for all original programming and live events through the WWE App, is said to be similar to the interactive fan experience currently available for flagship TV programs “WWE Raw” and “WWE SmackDown.”

 “We believe that this is the future,” Michelle Wilson, WWE chief revenue and marketing officer, reportedly said.

 WWE Network will air 30-minute-long pre- and post-shows for WWE’s weekly cable programs “Monday Night Raw” and “Friday Night SmackDown.” All episodes of original programming on WWE Network will be made available on demand immediately after they premiere.

 The network is scheduled to launch in the U.K, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kong and in Scandinavian countries by the end of 2014 or early 2015.
