The weekly drops reflect WWE Vault’s strategy to build its fast-growing archival YouTube channel.

Overview

  • Four episodes will post each Saturday in chronological order at 6 a.m., 8 a.m., 10 a.m. and 12 p.m. ET on WWE Vault.
  • The first batch includes Junkyard 500/Junkenstein, The Four-Legged Pickpocket, Clean Gene/Andre’s Giant Problem and Gorilla My Dreams.
