Network launches in April (at least they want it to), Elimination Chamber is in February. That is why its not on the network

I want to know what this means for us in the UK, where we most likely won't get the WWE Network due to the deal in place with Sky Sports. If this means all the PPVs bar the big four are shown on Sky Sports I'd be all for that.

Isn't the concept of Bragging Rights redundant? Everyone shows up on RAW, and it's not rare to see RAW superstars on Smackdown. Yep. Why should there be any brand loyalty since they're all "Supershows" anyway?

Well at least it's further away from Suvivor Series this time.
I never got why they had a PPV with a big elimination tag match on it right next to the PPV that's known for the same concept.

Wait a minute, this show won't be shown on PPV also? Odds are, I will not have the WWE Network any time soon, as my cable company is very stingy about adding new channels. Does this mean i'm shut out? This WWE Network could kill my monthly Hooters PPV adventure what iv'e read is that only the big 4 will "EXCLUSIVELY" be availabe on PPV, so I'm guess the others will be avaialable as well to those without the wwe network, but will also be shown on the wwe network, so those who have it don't have to order it

I'm surprised MitB isn't a PPV exclusive.

If this means all the PPVs bar the big four are shown on Sky Sports I'd be all for that. It means absolutely nothing to us. Sky has a contract with WWE and they decided how many PPV's we get for free and how many we have on Box Office. It'll stay like that for a few years. I seem to remember reading this is the best free/pay ratio we've had. I am intrigued to see if we get any of the WWE Network programming though. I do hope so.

I'm surprised MitB isn't a PPV exclusive. Considering the rumor is that MITB might return to Wrestlemania, it's possible that they might do away with that PPV concept.

At least its not right before Survivor Series this time. Having two back-to-back shows featuring multi-man matches seemed redundant.

And hopefully like the other two years they did it it bombs. Bragging Rights is a really dumb idea in general, and they give no reason to care about brand issues if only because it's only relevant leading up to the PPV and when guys switch brands they change allegiances immediately. And now they have this Supershow thing going on to make it all the more meaningless.

Well they had to put something in there. After all Capitol Punishment was just a gimmick name they used cause the PPV was in D.C.

Know what would be awesome? If NXT won Bragging Rights. AN ENTIRE BRAND AS THE UNDERDOG! Imagine if, the night after the PPV BEFORE Bragging Rights, The NXT Regulars all swarm in and attack Teams Raw and Smackdown, declare themselves a third brand, and are entered into the tag match? Three teams on the apron, three guys in at once, elimination rules...and NXT wins. This could be the Summer angle that is always good before it sucks! And by "it sucks" I mean HHH coming in and pedigreeing the NXT roster...

When are they going to finally get rid of Hell in the Cell? I don't get it. They KILLED that match. And that was like the biggest kind of match you could have in hot feud.

King of the Ring would have been a better choice.
With the winner getting a title shot at Summerslam
