The WWE Network has been the go-to streaming service for fans who want to watch WWE pay-per-views on a monthly basis, but recently there’s been a lot of speculation in regards to WWE possibly selling the PPV rights to another streaming service.
Triple H recently spoke to the media after NXT TakeOver: Portland, and he addressed the possibility of WWE moving pay-per-views to a different platform.
“I think there is a lot of speculation in the question of new platforms. Vince said on an earnings call about opportunities but if you take all of that off the board, just where it is right now NXT has incredible value wherever it sits, whether that be USA or the WWE Network.”
“If you can build a brand like this with a dedicated roster and a two-hour weekly show with regular attractions that you can put on a different platform and then have opportunities to create beyond that… I look at it as an offshoot. If NXT is the main trunk of the tree then there’s offshoots of NXT UK. There will continue to be more offshoots as we announced.”
At this point there’s no telling what the future holds in regards to WWE pay-per-views, but it will be interesting to see where things go from here.
