    Money in the Bank is no longer "free" on Sky Sports. It is on Sky Box Office instead:

    4 free PPV's. It used to be 6, didn't it? Or maybe my mind is just making that up.

    Sting was awesome - one of the greatest ever in my mind. His generally always turned out some great matches

    I remember when Survivor Series was free! The 2001 Survivor Series (WWE vs The Alliance) was free on TV

    So is there only 12 PPV's next year then? Looks like they got rid of (Battleground) the early October PPV.

    Six at most would be grand!
    Rumble, Mania, MiTB, SummerSlam, Survivor series and a December PPV

    They have about 8 hours of TV a week. 8 eights for roughly eight weeks will lead to a LOT of feuds being dragged out.

    In fairness Main event, Superstars, Saturday morning slam and NXT have no real impact on fueds. We'd have properly built fueds and PPVs will mean something again.

    Survivor Series 01 was on Sky Sports,still have the tape of it.

    Rumble,Backlash,Fully Loaded/Invasion, and Armageddon/Vengeance were shown on delay,with annoying ads on Channel 4 in 2000/2001.

    I actually appreciated the Channel 4 ad-breaks in the middle of the Royal Rumble because they were a reminder of what life would be like without Pro Wrestling.

    You're giving the creative team way too much credit.

    They were usually those ''thousands of hot single women are waiting to talk to you right now'' ads iirc.In fairness those companies knew the average wrestling fan pretty well!

    I remember when Television X (like you don't know what it is) would bombard the last hour of Smackdown with ads. Even more awkward if a non fan isn't watching
