Now they just need a US TV deal... Which is probably getting announced officially next week when WarnerMedia does their upfronts. |

Also it should be clarified that this is a UK PPV distribution deal, I don't think anything's been said about UK TV just yet but if they do land on ITV, that's a big, big deal.

Yep, just realized that. For the US PPV, I wonder if it will be on Fite.TV and regular PPV. I wont be able to watch live, but do want to see it. I also saw that the Warner upfronts are next Wednesday morning, so we should know more then I think too. |

Meltzer mentioned in the Observer that it will be on Fite, but it won't be available in the US because of the US PPV deal. That seems like a huge mistake.  |

Got ready fed up with WWE Money In The Bank PPV results . Thinking of dumping WWE altogether after say 30 years . We have decided to get AEW Sunday PPV . Its only the same price as a WWE Sky Tv PPV would be and not £30-£40 as I feared .

Sometimes you have to know when to cut ties if a product sucks, regardless of time invested. Think more “time wasted” in the future, as that’s something you can control. #WWE #GOT #WalkingDead 🚫 all have better alternatives.

I have fun watching most WWE ppvs but their weekly shows are unwatchable. Too many commercials, too many shows beginning with someone talking in the ring (an outdated model), too much talking segments in general. Keep the talking stuff for backstage segments. The ring is for wrestling.
Maybe this new Fox deal will produce tv programs to be more like the PPVs. Focus on in ring action, titles etc.

I never feel the need to keep watching if I get bored. I walked away from MITB a few times. I even turned off the main event last night. |
