like I said I expected this to happen at some point just didn't expect BKFC to be the reason, is BKFC even that big of a deal? genuinely asking

I'm glad that they're grandfathering the price, now just need the plaque saying - "Don't forget you're subscribed forever".
Can't believe that's the excuse they're using though. I wonder how many watch both the combat sports and pro wrestling, I'm guessing the crossover is quite low. Maybe I'm wrong and this bare knuckle thing is massive. Regardless for wrestling fans being more expensive than njpw, stardom or wrestle universe at current exchange rate seems risky.
Ah well, I went annual so can't complain for £3.75 a month and enough fite credits for a ppv.

It's probably the most prominent bare knuckle fed in America but being the most prominent bare knuckle fed in America is still an inherent trapping. Plus they still haven't rly outgrown being partially a place to go to watch aging or just generally on the downturn MMA veterans get the shit beat out of them in fights they have no business being apart of. Like they just ran an event called Knucklemania 4 where the co main event was a broken down Diego Sanchez getting jabbed to death to a doctor stoppage by Austin Trout, a multiple time WBA champion boxer.

I wouldn't be surprised if by the end of the Fite stopped doing PPVs and just put everything on Fite +

A few older mlw shows (the one I clicked on was from 2019) have been uploaded, would assume they'll be uploading more of their libary until the new stuff starts.

It's kind of a shame that Ken Shamrock's bare knuckle fed didn't go anywhere after the first show, because I actually liked that they had a no-clinch rule.

So is this just the Strong archive or are future live NJPW Strong shows included with Fite+ from now on?

Seems likely that the ppv model will continue but after a certain amount of time has passed they'll be added to fite+ Anyway it's all welcome. Watched Mercedes Vs Kairi and then Vikingo on mlw fusion, which was more a AAA show.

That does seem like the best way to benefit everyone, keep the PPV model for current shows but give access to Fite+ subscribers a few months after the event. I definitely appreciate having access to them at all.

My annual renewal went through today and I was disapointed to see credits are no longer a thing, I thought I'd get a free AEW (or maybe TNA) PPV again.
Oh well, still a bargain for under $5 a month.

I use what is now Triller through the app on Google tv and a recent update has turned it to shit. Breaks everytime I try to fast forward. The genral UI is a bit worse too.
Then to add to it they f***ed up the end of dynamite after increasing the cost of the service.
Sort it out.

I noticed they’ve recently added some CZW show to the service. Has anyone heard if the back catalog is going up at all (similar to GCW) or is it just the events going forward?

Luckily Rampage was on after but this has happened before (the first Christian/Copeland promo was cut off I remember). Either Tony Khan or Fite need to sort out the timing of the shows so this doesn’t happen. The end of Rampage was also very abrupt with it ending shortly after the decision.
