jeffrideal 154 Report post Posted October 2, 2021 Anyone know why there aren't any video links of the matches on Flo brackets, like there normally are? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I imagine it has something to do with broadcast rights. They have broadcast rights for the USA, but they don't 'own' the content on their servers, or whatnot.

Red95 78 Report post Posted October 2, 2021 Flo has mat replays available. So you have to scan through but you can watch the completed matches. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Katie 1,076 Report post Posted October 2, 2021 We used to able to watch worlds for free on the UWW site. Now we have to pay Flo $150 to watch the same thing. 2 wamba and KSchlosser reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
D3 for LU 58 Report post Posted October 2, 2021 (edited) Hmmm, yeah you are correct in that we NOW have to pay to watch. ( Been watching Flo for umpty-fratz years already. ) ... though, I've haven't paid for other choices, due to the cost of the ABOVE choice. ( insert "eye roll" emoji here.)

Yeah you got ripped off if you had to pay $150! I paid less than $10 for worlds. Of course there are lots of empty seats you could've saved the $150 for airline tickets to watch it in person.

Extremely hyped up MMA cards or boxing cards — that have much more commercial value — usually go for $60 or so. Edited October 2, 2021 by Katie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NJDan 1,062 Report post Posted October 2, 2021 If you watch right now, none of them are in the arena. Not a big deal; lots of pandemic-era events have been done this way. Don't why dopes like NHS and Nom insist on denying it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaroslav Hasek 2,047 Report post Posted October 2, 2021 Flo is not doing commentary for the main UWW feed (which goes out to many other countries, not just where Flo streams it) but 6 Flo's are very much Oslo and working inside the arena right now. A few more Flo's will be in Austin hosting a watch party. Also you couldn't watch Worlds on UWW's website for free since at least 2017. TrackWrestling had UWW streaming rights from 2017-2020 and charged you to watch. I think before before that they may have been free but they didn't even have a live broadcast in the FILA days, so we're talking maybe 2 or 3 years of free broadcasts (which also meant UWW was losing lots of money on the event). You also aren't being charged $150 to watch the worlds on Flo you are being charged $150 for a years worth of the greatest bundle of wrestling the world has ever known. still may not be worth the money to you but you get a whole lot more than one super bad ass tournament for your 150. 3 1 TFBJR, Wrestleknownothing, leshismore and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are the announcers in Oslo? B/c i just saw them on the screen and they sure look like they are somewhere else. Is assume the "6 flos" are tech guys.

You are an A+ poster. Much better than me. But I have a different take. I am only interested in worlds and not Flo’s other content. So in order to watch worlds, I have to pay $150 for the privilege (even though it used to be free), or get a VPN. I’m not willing to do either. If I recall correctly, at least Track allowed you to simply purchase the event for $20 or something, which I did. So thanks Flo for ruining worlds for me.
