They fu**ed themselves from the beginning. Dana White called it. It should've been:
Classic Package: $9.99 for all the old content and original shows.
In Your House Package: $19.99 if you wanted the new PPVs.
Premium Package - $29.99 if you wanted to watch the next Wrestlemania and matches from other current promotions.
WWE would've made more money this way. At least by having different options to choose from. Hell, they could've kept their PPV providing companies happy too instead of losing out.

Most people would likely just take the $9.99 price point anyway and just wait until the next day for the new PPVs and Wrestlemania to show up in the archives (unless they did what they did with RAW and dont add them until later as opposed to putting them in the archives immediately after).

A price increase will lead to me dropping out unless they get USA to let them have live RAW and SmackDown.

Not that I want them to do this but raise it to 14.99 for new subscribers. BUT if you're already paying 9.99 you can keep paying that rate. But if you cancel and reup you will pay the new rate. Also people who stay subscribed for a year get a free month or something.
again I don't want this stuff at all just making it up for fun

I wouldn't pay $19.99 for what amounts to a glorified raw. I don't even watch ppv's now, let alone pay an extra $10.

I'd keep it even if they upped it to 14.99 or 19.99 a month. It's still a hell of a deal when you look at all of the content and since I'm hopelessly addicted to Something to Wrestle with Bruce Prichard and The Jim Cornette Experience, I find myself going back and watching shows they reference.

If they raise the price, they're stupid. It'll drive a lot of people away including me.

I'm okay with the idea of a slight price hike, like $2-5. But only if they start actually giving a shit about the PPV's that aren't in Jan. Mar. Aug. and Nov. Make them feel like an actual event again, because what they're doing right now is no different then when GFW has a "PPV" in place of Impact every couple months.
I should wake up on Monday mornings being pissed right off that I had to miss a PPV. Right now, I forget when they're even happening

I wouldn't be happy with a price increase because I use the network solely for the back catalogue, I don't watch any of the current product.
If there was any change to the pricing I'd selfishly prefer them to put a higher price on subscriptions which include the current shows and keep the classic archive at £9.99

Who cares about the current product, they should be paying people to watch that not the other way around

I still listen to the 9.99 song they used in 2014-2015. It's too damn catchy!

I already pay a premium for living in Canada, now I do get a TV channel out of it, which is the stream and it mostly sucks because they play the same 4 shows over and over and over and over and over all day, which is understandable when you only have about 40 years of content to stream, so I can see how they are struggling to fill 24 hours a day.
I mostly pay for the back catalogue and math reasons. I'm gonna watch Mania regardless, which is basically $100 now, so, even at $12 a month, I'm basically even with buying Mania once a year to keep all the time.
If you're a WWE fan and you can afford it, you're dumb for not having the Network.
