10 WWE Network Shows You Forgot Existed

After attempting to get it off the ground as an actual cable channel, World Wrestling Entertainment launched the WWE Network as an online streaming service offering fans decades’ worth of classic in-ring product in addition to all of the company’s new pay-per-views. The Network isn't just an archive of old shows however, they also produced new shows to make sure fans renewed their subscriptions. This included not only actual wrestling shows but also documentaries, reality shows, and retrospectives.

Since its inception, the WWE Network has put together lots of different shows in order to see what sticks, and as a result many efforts have gone forgotten amidst more popular Network exclusives like WWE 24 and Undertaker: The Last Ride.

10 Legends House

One of the earliest efforts of the WWE Network was Legends House, which was shot in 2012 but went unaired until the Network’s debut. A Real World style show, Legends House had Roddy Piper, Jim Duggan, Hillbilly Jim, and more living together in a house in Palm Springs and taking part in challenges and other activities.

No second season was produced, so fans only have one season of this bizarre cocktail of staged shenanigans, celebrity cameos, and Piper having a meltdown and trying to escape into the desert in the middle of the night.

9 Superstar Ink

Lots of wrestlers have tattoos and WWE produces a lot of content, so the combination of these two things manifested as Superstar Ink.

Hosted by the extremely tattooed Corey Graves, each episode of Superstar Ink spotlights a tattooed wrestler, taking a look at their artwork and some of the stories behind them. It was a cool look at some of the details on the athletes that fans might need to squint to notice and featured a nice range of performers like Chris Jericho, Roman Reigns, Kofi Kingston, and even Fandango.

8 Botch Club

If there’s one thing die-hard wrestling fans are obsessed with, it’s in-ring botches, as many of them can’t get over athletes making mistakes during exhausting physical activity. For many fans, the fan-created Botchamania serves as the wrestling world’s official blooper reel, so WWE decided to horn in on that territory for themselves.

Hosted by Good Brothers Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson, Botch Club explored some famous WWE botches and the stories behind them. While Gallows and Anderson -- who have moved on from WWE -- intended to do a whole season’s worth of material, only one actual episode of Botch Club was produced.

7 Camp WWE

WWE’s aspirations to be an all-encompassing entertainment company tend to manifest with direct-to-video action films, but Camp WWE saw the promotion team up with Seth Green’s production company to deliver an attempt at edgy adult animated comedy in the vein of Family Guy.

Lasting 10 episodes and two seasons, the show didn’t have much to do with wrestling, as Camp WWE recast its wrestlers as little kids in a summer camp managed by WWE Legends.

6 Breaking Ground

One of the Network’s best-produced documentaries,Breaking Ground offered fans a look at seemingly every facet of WWE’s developmental system. The 11-episode series depicted not only the stars of NXT circa 2015, but also WWE hopefuls going in for tryouts, trainees improving their craft, future stars getting the coveted main roster call-up, and even some wrestlers getting released by the company.

As the years have gone by, Breaking Ground has proven to be an interesting snapshot of a specific era of WWE's developmental system, as many of the wrestlers featured have moved on. Also, it was narrated by William Shatner for some reason.

5 Legends with JBL

Lasting 15 episodes from 2015 to 2017, Legends with JBL was one of the many WWE Network programs that featured wrestlers simply telling their stories. Praised by fans for its laid-back format, Legends featured John Bradshaw Layfield having sitdown talks with notables like Stan Hansen, Jimmy Hart, Sting, and even his own tag partner Ron Simmons. These seasoned veterans of the squared circle would deliver lots of great anecdotes about their upbringing and careers.

4 Holy Foley!

Wrestling-related reality shows have proven popular thanks to VH1’s Hogan Knows Best and WWE-produced efforts like Total Divas on E!, so it was a natural fit to produce a similar show for the WWE Network. Holy Foley! focused on the wacky family of hardcore legend Mick Foley and featured appearances from other wrestling notables like Becky Lynch, Sasha Banks, and Diamond Dallas Page.

While various members of the Foley household got something to do, it was clear that Holy Foley! was intended to introduce fans to Mick’s daughter Noelle, as much of the show was devoted to her efforts to break into the wrestling business.

3 Xavier’s Arcade Challenge

Even more than Kenny Omega, there’s nobody in pro wrestling associated with video games like eight-time Tag Team Champion Xavier Woods, who hosts his own gaming YouTube channel, Up Up Down Down. WWE Network attempted to capitalize on Woods’ gaming obsession with Xavier’s Arcade Challenge, which only lasted a single episode but looked like it was going to take advantage of the WWE travel schedule to show Woods visiting various arcades all over the world.

2 Zack & Curt Figure It Out

If Xavier Woods is the video game guy, Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins are the toy guys. They even have their own podcast about it, The Major Wrestling Figure Podcast. But they also had a short-lived WWE Network show about it called Zack and Curt Figure It Out, where the duo (sometimes with a guest) venture into collector’s shops and check out the selection of wrestling figures.

The guys are pretty knowledgeable about toys, so the show offers not only some cool information about obscure action figures but also provides some vicarious fun in shopping for wrestling toys with actual wrestlers.

1 WWE Music Power 10

Sometimes it feels like WWE’s greatest output isn’t pro wrestling matches, but rather wrestler entrances, which WWE has largely mastered for maximum impact on its live crowds -- except when they don’t.

Showing off this very specific art form was WWE Music Power 10, a countdown show that ran through WWE’s best “musical moments.” While sometimes these countdowns included the various live performances from musicians on WWE shows, the countdowns were mostly wrestlers making big entrances on pay-per-view.
