16. You Still Have Wrestling VHS Tapes And DVDs Just In Case
In the nearly two years since its establishment, the WWE Network has made the majority of most fans' tape collections obsolete. Though less than 5 percent of the company's video library has been uploaded to the Network, the most popular footage is there - including every single WWE, WCW, and ECW Pay-Per-View, many DVD documentaries, and loads of old episodes of TV shows. Many fans spent years collecting DVDs and VHS tapes, and in all honesty, those can probably be thrown away... probably. But what if there's a problem? What if WWE pulls down archived footage because not enough people are watching it? What if the WWE Network numbers take a nosedive and the company pulls the plug on it? What if the grid goes down and we're all left to fend for ourselves, holed up in our houses with no streaming video? If you really love WWE, it's better to be safe than sorry.
