Following a poor reception to the WWE Network from both cable distributors and consumers alike, WWE’s plans for the fledgling channel are being revamped, FightNetwork.com’s Live Audio Wrestling reports Friday. The project has undergone some major changes behind-the-scenes with the entire concept being revamped, a WWE source told the website.

Cable and satellite-television providers have expressed little to no interest in carrying the wrestling-centric channel due to the belief it’s not viable. And while WWE has considered making the network a pay-subscription channel, the internal belief is that it would be extremely difficult to make the venture profitable in today’s climate.

Despite these dilemmas, WWE plans to eventually get the project off the ground in some form or fashion. Details are scarce but the company is expected to make an announcement in the future regarding some sort of partnership.

How about improving the current product before venturing and spending money on a worthless idea which will no doubt fail.

If they don't do it, we laugh at them hyping it to the moon at one point and simply not talking about it anymore and giving up. If they do it, it's going to flop miserably and we get to laugh at them even more. :lol1:

This is unnecessary. But let's see if they can not lose thaat much money while failing this.
