Raw Live???

gimmick

from Wrestlezone.com

According to SKY TV, Raw will begin airing live in Great Britain in January every Monday night/Tue morning at 2 AM. The show will repeat on Wednesdays at 8.30 PM and Thursday at 11 PM.

What do people think about this. 2am is a bit of a balls, as almost wwe's entire fanbase in Ireland and UK is either going to school, or working.

The repeat on Wednesday clashed with the Champions League.

While it is good that WWE want to broadcast live to here, it just isnt that feasible is it?

Like it was all ready said you can record it or you can just watch it thursday night like you do now. You gotta admit its nice having the option of watching it live if your not in school/work the next day for whatever reason

Very feasable, and great news if you ask me, I've been waiting for this for years. Love watchin shows live, because I always ruin recorded shows by going online, I just can't help myself.

Dear *****

Thank you for your e-mail about coverage of WWE on Sky.

Sky has recently signed a new 5 year agreement with World Wrestling Entertainment and from the beginning of 2005 will carry all nine first run hours of WWE's seven weekly programmes including for the first time a weekly live showing of WWE RAW on Monday nights.

WWE RAW - Live on Sky Sports on Mondays nights at 2.00am, repeated Wednesday evenings at 9.00pm - LIVE PROGRAMME STARTS 03/01/05

WWE SmackDown! - Sky Sports Fridays at 9.30pm with repeats on Saturday AT 2300
WWE Heat - Sky Sports Sundays AT 2400 (Prior to live event on Sky Sports One)
WWE Velocity - Sky Sports Sundays AT 2300
WWE Bottom Line - Sky Sports Fridays AT 2330
WWE After Burn - Sky Sports Sundays AT 2200
WWE Experience - Sky One Sundays AT 2100

ALL TIMES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE

In addition, during negotiations Sky accepted a request from WWE to include more live events on Pay-Per-View and therefore Sky Box Office will now show eight events annually, including the favourites WrestleMania, Royal Rumble, Summerslam and Survivor Series.

Further, there will be six monthly Specials also shown live on Sunday evenings on Sky Sports.

All programming is subject to change and where appropriate will be shown completely uncut when scheduled for late evening viewing. Repeats suitable for daytime will be edited.

Thank you for your interest in Sky.

Kind regards

It's a crappy recap show that took the place of Confidential in the states earlier this year.

I think its an absolute sham!!!
Im a bloody college student and so basically I dont get to see Raw at all!!
Cant afford sky sports in my student house obviously, so I miss it both Monday and Wednesday!! I can be damned if I think my parents r gonna record it each week...!!

Im bloody majorly pissed off!!
At least show it late night on Fridays still!?
