WWE Rumors: WWE Network Finally Launches in India

It was earlier reported that the WWE is contemplating on investing in the Indian television and wrestling market after TNA Wrestling did so earlier. But the difference with the WWE investment to that of TNA is that the professional wrestling promotion is going full blast.

The official website of the WWE announced that its network will now be available in India, successfully expanding its coverage in the Indian subcontinent. The WWE Network is already available in neighbors Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka. The addition of India, a country of more than a billion people, means that WWE is taking the fight to its main competitor, TNA Wrestling.

The network subscription is going to be offered at $9.99 per month, but the best thing about it isn't really the price but the lack of commitment, as well as the luxury to cancel subscription any time. In order to sign up online, the website says:

Furthermore, the announcement also revealed that new subscribers will be receiving their first month of service free of charge and they also will get access to the English language version, the same thing shown in the United States. Other features of the subscription include:

  • 24/7 scheduled programming
  • Video-on-demand library with over 3,700 hours of content
  • Smackdown and Raw re-airing
  • WCW, WWE, and ECW PPV

Some of the most popular programming offered by the network includes WWE 24, NXT TakeOver, Total Divas, Monday Night War, and WWE Breaking Ground.

The WWE Network recognizes the importance of India as a market for its promotion. According to Chief Strategy and Financial Officer George Barrios, the entire WWE is excited to make the network available to fans in the country. He added, "The global expansion of WWE Network is a key driver in our commitment to growing the WWE brand internationally."
