-- WWE NETWORK NEW FEATURES: WWE has added two new features to the Network this week. (1) A watchlist feature that allows users to "bookmark" a show to be watched later. (2) DVR function that allows users to resume watching a show at a later time, with the Network remembering where a user left off. The additions are well-timed during the free month of WWE Network access for Network subscribers. [ Thanks to VIP'er Kylin in New Jersey ]

-- PRE-RUMBLE PRE-SALE: WWE is launching a pre-sale for the "Supershow" at the Izod Center on Saturday, January 24 - the night before the Royal Rumble.

WWE is advertising John Cena, Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose, a returning Roman Reigns, Big Show, Bray Wyatt, The Usos, Kofi Kingston, and Paige for the show. [ Thanks to Mike Omansky ]
