Are you used to Saturday PLEs yet?

[wildojinx]

Since the WWE has shifted to having most of their PLEs on Saturdays now, have you gotten used to it yet, or do you still sometimes have to remember the show is happening on Saturday and not Sunday?

[fg]

I still am getting used to it.

To me it’s like a rebooted version of Saturday Nights Main Event except it’s four hours long plus and it starts at 8p. Basically SNME were PLE quality shows for free.

Does anyone agree?

[Famous Rocking Chimes]

Very much so. Living in the UK this is a genuine god send.

Why couldn’t they have done this 10 or 15 years ago when I was still in school?

[Push R Truth]

I speak as somebody from the Central Time Zone:

It's killed PPV parties. Normally people don't plan anything in advance on a Sunday Night so it was easy for a couple people to randomly show up and watch some wrestling and drink a beer to end the weekend.

Saturday nights? Totally different story. Everybody already has plans. It's lonely watching these shows.

Extended the school bit to 25 years ago and my thoughts exactly.

Putting the Rumble on a Saturday night for a school run dad is just an act of kindness.

Absolutely love it as an Irish viewer, can make a night of it and not want to kill yourself in work the next day.

Add me to the "why couldn't they do this when I was at school" club.

I like Saturday nights shows as I can have a lie in on the Sunday, however I miss seeing the next show (Raw) the next night. 2 nights seems long time to wait when you are buzzing & wanting to find out what’s happening next! It’s even longer to wait until Smackdown!!

["Evil Brood" Jackson Vanik]

Not really. I often either have social plans or a soccer game to go to (I've got season tickets). Sundays are usually much more open on my calendar.

[chronocross]

Definitely gotten used to it by now.

I also like when they do international PLE's like Money in the Bank from London last month with an earlier start time.

[Cvslfc123]

As someone who lives in the UK I love it.

I don't watch them live but it's great being able to watch them on a Sunday with lunch and a few beers. Before I would have to get through work on Monday and try to avoid spoilers. Night 2 of the last two WrestleManias brought back bad memories.

[Lizuka #BLM]

Not at all, kind of hate it.

[cornettesracket]

Being from Ireland I love the fact they are on Saturday(Sunday morning here) it makes it so much easier to stay up for now. All the years of being sleep deprived in school and college and outside of the summer you’d hope they’d fall on a Sunday that was bank holiday. WM 18 was on paddy’s day and it was great because I was only 17 and the Adults were out on the piss and I taped it. well better late them never.

[clc]

Not a fan of Saturday PLEs. Sunday works so much better for me.

[Instant Classic]

Yes. I love not having to go to work the day after a PPV.

[avenger]

Also in the UK, also prefer it. Once the football season is in swing, I can go to the game, have a drink, grab something to eat, travel back and settle in, knowing I can have a lie in next day.

[Legion]

Prefer them, love them, wish they were all on Saturdays for all brands.

[Super Duper Dragunov]

I prefer it for the most part. It's easier for my partner to join me for them since he's off Saturday's, but it is funny that my internal clock is still used to Sunday's because I'll wake up the next day after a PPV and think "do I want to watch Raw tonight?"

[joeiscool]

I hate them being on sat. I typically work on sats cause I dj it's also why I hate smackdown is on fridays
