WWE Network launches on Monday, February 24th, 2014.

We’re a little over a week away from one of the biggest launches in OnDemand history. The WWE has dominated in almost every sales category when it comes to events, merchandise including toys, DVD’s/Blu Rays, etc.

The WWE Universe is anxiously waiting for the 24th to arrive. They’ll be able to sign up that very morning and watch whatever content is available. The official launch is right after WWE RAW, that’s when most of the content will be up and running.

I’m guessing the server may crash considering how many people are expected to sign up on the very first day. I know I’m trying to be one of those fans.

Now WWE’s Joey Styles sat down with several WWE legends and asked them about the WWE Network and their experience at the press conference in Las Vegas. The interview was posted by WWE.com. First guy up, is Stone Cold Steve Austin.

"“I was actually a bit [ticked] off that I had to be there, because I had just gotten back from Texas, I was out of shape, I hadn’t really unpacked by bags from being at the ranch for two months. But I was so proud and happy that I went. Way back int he day when I started out in 1990, I would have never envisioned that the business would ever turn to this or someone would have the vision to do it. Vince McMahon was standing right in front of me, about two feet away, and I slapped him on th eback two times and I said, “That’s impressive.” and I left that thing being extremely impressed with what the WWE has come up with now.” Stone Cold via WWE.com“Every time you think that the business can’t expand any more than it has, here we are again talking about something that’s going to be perpetuity. Long after we’re dead and gone, WWE Network will still be up and people will be able to look back and watch us. That was big for us.” Shawn Michaels via WWE.com.“To be honest, I’d love to go back and watch a lot of [King Kong] Bundy’s matches. I miss guys like Bundy. There’s just not a guy like Bundy in wrestling today, you know? Even guys like Jake ‘The Snake’ [Roberts]. I look back at my career and I go, “What a shame, I never wrestled Jake ‘The Snake’ one time.” It’s too bad we never got to work at least one match.” Bret Hart viaWWE.com"
