... what happens? Like do they lose subscribers do they have to do make good like giving a free month? They got people locked in for 6 months so would there be any way that they could restore your faith with the PPVs afterwords? Worse case scenario how does it play out?

What do you mean, bomb? The show being terrible, underselling, or there being a mass of technical difficulties that stop people from watching?
If it's the first, they do what they always do, talk about how explosive and awesome it was anyways.
If it was second, they just don't acknowledge it at all.
The third would be the most damaging, and if it was bad enough I'd assume that they'd do something along the lines of a free month's subscription or something to all the affected buyers.

There'll probably be some sort of damage control or make-good, but I doubt they'd do anything too drastic since it'd immediately be up on demand anyway.

In the event something does go awry, they'd probably compensate by giving away a free month of the network. With that said, I'm have little faith in the service, I'm going to buy it on PPV just in case.

This will be the highest rated Wrestlemania ever due to people having both the Network AND ordering it on PPV just in case.

It'd do a lot of damage to WWE's credibility, but personally, I'd still keep the network. The streaming that does work and the shows on demand pay for itself.

It will be available immediately on-demand so Vince will tell you to suck it.

You just know there's going to be at least some problems. It's just a question of how major it will be. Personally, if it really craps out I'll just stay off the internet until the show is over and then watch it on demand.

Is it going to be up right away? I thought they had a waiting period?
Even so, they won't do anything if it goes out or messes up. Wrestling fans have to eat shit all the time because we have no alternative. So why would they make something up to us now?

And it'll be replayed on the livestream Tuesday morning.

The waiting period was only there for Eilimination Chamber so people would still buy the PPV.
