Weird Network Idea

By Scott Keith on 15 September 2024


Hey Scott,

Potential question for the blog:

While admittedly other camera angles are likely to expose the business (to whatever extent that's still a concern in 2024), I think a neat attraction on WWE's YouTube account or the Network would be to show famous matches, but not utilizing the camera cuts that we recognize. Like, I've seen Hogan vs. Warrior at Wrestlemania VI twenty times, but it would be fascinating to see how it would look if they used the footage they captured from the other cameras.

Perhaps I am mistaken to think there is an audience for such a thing, and maybe I'm even naive to assume that they keep all the footage captured from every camera at a given show, but I maintain that it would be cool to see.

Cheers,

Monte


I wanna say there was an alternate cut of Hogan vs Andre from a static camera angle that was put out there by the YouTube channel at one point ? But yeah, AWESOME idea. They have hundreds of thousands of hours of raw footage they could probably pull from.
