re: Disney/ESPN Pays $1.6 Billion For WWE Streaming Rights

I loved growing up watching the WWE Attitude era with Stone Cold & the Rock. Once SC retired I stopped watching. Now I’ll see clips and it’s just random off the wall celebrity in the ring or some random influencer and I just have no idea how people find it entertaining or how Jelly Roll would even tie in to a storyline.

I only watch the Premier League on USA and ESPN.
I probably have to keep Peacock (I watch like 6 or 7 of the 10 WWE PLEs a year but alot of Arsenal games get pushed to Peacock no I have to keep it.)
I'll probably get back on youtube tv (yawn) and get the ESPN streaming through there. No way I can miss the Royal Rumble/Wrestlemania/Summerslam so I guess I have no choice here

Come on down to Netflix, UFC!

Guess you didn’t watch the Iyo/Rhea match at Evolution.
It was the match of the year and I'm not even kidding. And they are arguably the best two wrestlers in the company RN.

That's because you actually need to watch it. Since HHH has taken over creative, it has gotten loads better. I had stopped watching myself the last few years of the Vince era.

What Vince McMahon built in this business has to be top 3 achievements in the field in world history. Every person involved in that has him to thank

They're taking everything over.

They better at least give us some kind of WWE themed attraction out of this. Call it “The Tombstone” or “Mick’s Wild Ride” free fall style ride or something.

ESPN is going to raise their subscription prices on people who just want to watch real sports can pay for ESPN to buy rights to scripted soap operas. They might as well buy the streaming rights to the housewives of the NBA / NFL reality show to go along with it and jack up the subscription cost some more.

Subtle bump to remind YoutubeTV subscribers, including myself, that both Google and Disney hate you and you're fricked out of Wrestlepalooza this weekend, unlike 3/4 of the other live streaming providers that carry ESPN.
They haven't reached a deal, and likely won't until December with a price hike to go with it so you can forget about the next two or three PLEs too.
Unless you live the pirate's life or pay the mouse another $30 at least.

Or use a VPN to access international version of Netflix.

WWE sold out to the Saudis. WrestleMania 2027 heading there. Screw over NO and MSP in back to back years and now give it to the Saudis. Screw that.
The boycott should start now.

You went from paying for a bunch of cable channels and having to watch whatever they aired at whatever time they aired it to buying a few streamers and being able to watch what you want on your own time. Not sure how that is a regression but okay.
Having said that, they need to work out a deal with the rest of the major subscribers so their cable/satellite customers have access to espn unlimited. Their first event should have been airing on regular ESPN anyways but that makes too much sense.

Yeah just get a vpn - they are absolutely dirt cheap. Set location to Canada and login to Netflix. Netflix carries all of WWE's international content.

ESPN is not airing WWE over college football.
