I'm curious to see what they will do instead if RAW is cancelled.. Surely they have a back-up plan I mean the storm has been projected to hit for 5 days now.

UPDATE (12:15 PM ET): PWInsider reports that WWE production crews are packing up at the XL Center in Hartford as the show has been cancelled. WWE official reports that Raw will air in some form tonight, but there are no details on what will be included at this time.

SmackDown is said to be in trouble as well..

Here's an idea for the WWE, schedule winter shows for the south that way you can avoid this shit.

True, true. And we might have bad weather, but it's mostly rain especially down south. It hasn't snowed where I live in London for like 2 years.

I live in the north west of England and we never get snow, If we do it's either followed by Rain or just doesn't stick. Can be cold but never falls below 4 degrees Celsius so yh WWE more UK shows? And throw a PPV in there for good measures.

It's official.

WWE confirmed in a release that Raw would not be live from Hartford, CT tonight as severe winter weather impacts the region. Instead, Raw will air Thursday night on Syfy, but WWE will broadcast in it's normal timeslot on USA tonight at 8 p.m. EST.

Not when they can still charge people $55 to watch it on-demand PPV. Not a chance in hell.

That's what the Network is for I might add, It's only $9.99

I wouldn't mind a "Best of the SHIELD" show... if I can see SHIELD vs Wyatts again, I'd be quite happy.

Maybe so, but some people are straight up Blue. When you see 100,000 PPV buys for one of the latest shows they released the numbers for, that confirms it :lol1:

Shoot a special NXT-RAW right now in Full Sail.. Basically a 3 hour NXT special featuring everybody on their roster including if they have any superstars near by from the main show.. I mean it can be done on time, it may look crude post production but hey give it a shot if you really don't have a plan. 50% off tickets of 2 or more at a time get some money off that and the TV viewership and try and salvage some of the financial loss.
