A few years ago, Dish dropped WWE ppvs because of the WWE Network. Today, I was scrolling through the programming guide and saw that the Royal Rumble will be on ppv on Sunday.
Good news for us folks with crappy rural internet. If I ever decide to watch one of these, I have to sub to WWE and put up with a ton of buffering. If I have enough Verizon data or carryover data, I use personal hot spot and set the WWE player to the lowest quality.
Take it easy. I wasnt singling out dish. I dont know exact numbers. I just remember seeing an interview with vince mcmahon where he stated that the tv providers insist on ridiculous markups and it will be nice to be able to cut the middle man out. They asked him how they can afford to give away the ppvs for $10 especially big ones like wrestlemania and summerslam
