WWE Network to split into different tiers? (Free, 4.99, 9.99, 14.99)

[sid the kid]

They would probably be better off if they had their own show tbh and lol @ "too much content". I'm not sure what that means lol

It means 2016 WWE isn't good enough to warrant 6 hours of first run content (Raw, Smackdown, NXT), let alone 9 hours on a PPV week.

So yes, there is such thing as "too much content" when said content is trash.

 

[MightyHealthy]

Exactly. For $15 a month there better be either live Raw/SD broadcasts or at least have the show up after its airing on cable. Because the current "replays" they have are a joke.

Right. At the very least, they should consider taking rights back from Hulu for replays.

all these so called fans who bootleg streams fukking up the price. But that 14.99 is not bad. I just want to know if the VIP/Deluxe fan meet up shyt will be free or an extra extra. . And Can they get Lucha Underground instead of either TNA or ROH.

 

[jadillac]

I'd pay the extra $5 just to get rid of the ads alone

you get that many ads? I can't remember the last non-WWE ad I saw on there.

I think the free-tier may cause some 9.99 cancellations. Some people just have the network for when they get the itch to watch some old school stuff. They may only watch once a month or when they're bored.

And if you can watch the livestream 24/7 except for new ppvs, then that takes care of boredom

I think the "Free" option would be a mistake. Nothing is free. You don't just give away content like that.

yeah, I rmember the struggle of being a kid having to go to Blockbuster to rent old school WWF VHS vids. You couldnt buy them anywhere, and if you could they were like $40-$50.

And now they're gonna give some portion of it away for free. Hell naw.

$4.99 for the archive footage.

Forget all that. They need to space out the PPVs. Not only that but people have still been complaining about streaming issues when watching live events so they should probably look into that before throwing in different packages.

They aren't giving it away they will get ad dollars and your metadata lol

 

[El Guapo]

They should be concentrating on getting on Chromecast first

You would think chromecast would be going out of their way to add them i wasn't aware of this lol.

 

[Cartier Murphy]

They could stand to work on the interface and menus and stuff. Compared to other streaming services, it's not as simple and streamlined.
