More Details On WWE Legends Reality Show On Syfy
Mydesert.com has provided new information has come out regarding the upcoming "WWE Legends House" reality show that will feature various wrestling legends living under one roof.

The filming begins this week at the Harpo Marx estate in Rancho Mirage near Palm Springs, California. The property is 2.1 acres and was one of six houses WWE was looking at in the area.

The cast still hasn't been confirmed but rumored names have included "Mean" Gene Okerlund, Dusty Rhodes, Roddy Piper and the Iron Shiek. They will live at the mansion until Saturday, March 31 - the day before WrestleMania 28.

Most of the show will be shot at the house but the legends will also explore the local community. It is being reported that both golf and hot air balloon outings will be filmed for the show.

The show was originally announced for the WWE Network, but the Wrestling Observer reported it could air on Syfy in April due the WWE Network's launch being delayed.

I hope they have a ring somewhere in the house as someone else said before.

I also hope they dedicate a whole show to tag wrestling on the network. Im not saying to take the Divas, CWs, or tag teams off Raw or SD, but give them all a one hour show that focuses on their divisions with feature matches on the main brand

Really looking forward to seeing a Crusierweight show on the Network. If WWE aren't going to give them time on WWE television then the next best idea is to put in on their Network. Should be a good show to watch and I also like the idea of a potential Lucha show on the Network.

WWE have been looking at their wrestlers for some time so I am sure they will get a crusierweight wrestler or two from there. Would be a smart move by WWE to take some ready made tag teams from the indy scene but I can't remember the last time they signed an actual tag team.

I wouldn't blame Chris Hero for juicing after how much talent he had and how little he was getting from it in the Indies. Still looking back at 2002 with him and Punk in IWA-MS he still hasn't made it. Something needs to change.

But he should have got off of it before the drug test, long before it, instead of failing the initial screening is my point

The whole WWE Network is confusing me and I think WWE are failing with it. But whatever, so, who's getting the network?

Well, I don't think it's really failing or the network will fail as Vince has invested a fair bit in it but I do think they're struggling.

I think that WWE making PPVs Network only shows is a bad idea. The more I think about it the more I think that WWE should show the PPVs on the Network for no extra cost but they should also show the PPVs like normal so that they can make the most money out of it. It is still a fantastic deal for people that purchase the Network since it will cost less than $10 a month and you are getting a $40 PPV each month PLUS all the other content as well.

Sort of an update on the Legends Reality Show:

"Hacksaw" Jim Jim Duggan, "Mean" Gene Okerlund and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper have been confirmed to appear on the program. The show began filming last week at the former house of Harpo Marx in Rancho Mirage, California.

Surprised that the cast list hasn't been posted yet if filming did indeed start last week, I thought that it would have been leaked by now. Still interested in seeing this when it comes out.
