Sporting News: WWE Network offers free February and hits one million mark


I love how they're like "See, we're at 75% of what we promised months ago and we've cut 20% of our workforce so now everything's fine!"

  1. One million subs, and all they had to do was shed 20% of their staff, refocus their business model,vastly cut expectations, offer 2 months free, and lessen employee cuts from shows. Oh, and burn every bridge with the PPV market.

    Well, at least the quality of the product is still... Wait never mind.

  2. Smart move. I let mine lapse in favour of EA Access. No doubt I'll resign, and forget to unsubscribe before the end of the month.

  3. If I'm not mistaken, this isn't a matter of neglecting to cancel your subscription. If it's anything like November's free month, you don't even have to give any credit card information. I would assume it just stops after the month is over.

  4. No live Smackdown thread?

  5. They are going to give away the Network for free a third of the time?

    Works for me.

  6. I'll stay subscribed for the next year if Vince apologises for treating every fan like a piece of shit at the Rumble. Otherwise he can stick his free month up his Fast Lane.

  7. They should pay you $9.99 to sign up during whatever month battleground is.

  8. They were definitely taking card info, in November. I tried signing up again then. I said screw it then, but signed up once they uploaded prime time. It was the first free month that it was just on.

  9. Last free month worked well in terms of ppv quality. Survivor Series was a one match show, but that match delivered a satisfying ending. Hopefully that's a good sign for Fast Lane.

  10. Apparently all they HAD to do was finally launch in Britain and get rid of the six month contentment, but hindsight is 20/20

  11. Wonder if they realize they could re-sign Brock Lesnar to do 12 matches a year with the money it costs to put out one of these free months?

    This was on Big Bang Theory tonight: Sheldon hallucinated seeing an armadillo in a suit and fedora.


    My books star a mutant armadillo dressed similarly.


    Ordinarily, I'd be grinning from ear to ear from the sight, but I've been hit with such hard depression lately that all I can think is how many times I'll be asked from now on if I ripped the idea of Dill from this gag.

  13. Next they'll run a WrestleMania promotion, something that will get people to fork over $60.
