I'm having the same issue. Have you resolved this.
I have an LG Smart TV 42LB5800 and I have installed the latest version of the WWE Network app. However, the app is broken for me. Whenever I play a video, the menu with the pause, fast forward buttons does not appear and I can't pause, fast forward, everytime I play a video. Does the same happen to you and how could I possibly solve these problems?
