WWE Network

WWE Network is an over-the-top streaming service and digital television network owned by American integrated media company WWE using the infrastructure of Endeavor Streaming Services.
On October 17, 2011, WWE announced the network would launch on April 1, 2012 in the United States which would have coincided with WrestleMania XXVIII. The company stated on July 31, 2012 that the service was expected to go live in CANZUK, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Mexico, Spain, Turkey, the Nordics, the Middle East and North Africa, worldwide among other countries starting on August 17, 2012 coinciding with Summerslam. The WWE Network consists of both a 24-hour linear streaming channel and on-demand programming from WWE's library.
On January 2021, in 200 Countries DAZN has exclusive rights to distribute the WWE Network integrating it into its service whilst keeping the WWE Network in its original form, with the original service discontinued on April 4.
== Wrestling video games ==
Some WWF/WWE games which share a name but were produced for different platforms are considered separate, especially if they were released years apart. For example, the SNES game WWF Royal Rumble is completely different from the Dreamcast game entitled WWF Royal Rumble released years later.

* Co-op season mode
* Players are also able to counter their opponents' attacks with a timed button press. 
* One of the game's unique features is the "Momentum Shift" move - a desperation attack that gives a character an instant advantage during the match. The stamina meter, which slows wrestlers' movement over time and when completely depleted, temporarily leaves characters winded and open to attack. 
* In addition, different levels of bleeding on the player's character also affect the character's ability to regain stamina.
* The game also introduces four types of submission options. While applying a submission hold, players can choose from one of four submission types: a Taunt submission depletes the opponent's momentum meter, a Rest Hold submission allows the player's character to regain stamina, the Drain submission drains the opponent of stamina, while a regular submission move causes damage to a particular body part.
* Swapping Between Grapples And Strikes Within The Same Move
* Career Mode, with decisions (such as where you wanted to go and what you wanted to do next) being made on a new menu screen in your locker room, while players could enter the General Manager's room to ask for title shots and brand switches. There are multiple titles to go after depending on if you go to SmackDown! or RAW.

=== WWE 2K22 ===
The removed OMG moments and abilities are maintained
=== WWE 2K24 ===
WarGames is featured for the first time in a WWE 2K game, and the Royal Rumble match now supports online multiplayer with up to eight players. Special Guest Referee, Ambulance Match, Casket Match, and Gauntlet Match returns. Referee voiceovers have been revamped with different voices and unique lines when the pinfall occurs
Trading Blows minigame. Once you are deep into a brawl, a Quick Time Event-esque minigame will unlock. You can choose to punch, knife edge chop, overhand chop, or slap your opponent using the left stick of your controller. Apart from that, the animations have been upgraded. Once you are deep into a match, the finishers will look gradually tiresome. Also, the blood physics now allows it to drop more realistically and it stays on the mat
The Universe Mode has some cool new features too. This will be based on a lot of what fans get to see in real life, adding to the drama. The first new feature is expanded rivalry actions, including run-ins, Money in the Bank cash-ins, scenarios, and brawls. Apart from that, there will be new cutscenes and double title matches. However, the one more interesting feature is the Loser Leaves the Town stipulation
New paybacks
Iron Jaw: When used, it will completely eliminate your Stunned meter
Freeze: Allows you to cower and lure an opponent in for a cheap shot, think Harley Race & MJF.
Fireball: Shoot a fireball at your opponents face! Think of Alexa Bliss
Rage: Instantly earn a Finisher upon activation

== History ==
=== Development and U.S. launch ===
The origins of the WWE Network can trace back to 2000 when USA Network filed the lawsuit against WWE due to breach of contract which saw most of its programming moved to Paramount-owned Spike TV and MTV. The Delaware Chancery Court ruled in favor of WWE in June 2000. Then CEO, Linda McMahon, revealed that WWE wanted its own cable network and testified that before WWE signed a rights deal with Paramount, the company had floated the idea of acquiring Sci-Fi Channel, and reformatting it as a dedicated wrestling network. USA Network executives rejected the idea, and McMahon said that former USA Network President Barry Baker encouraged her to talk to other programmers about potential deals. "I can tell you right now, Linda, you're not going to get anybody to give you a network," McMahon testified. In 2005, USA Network re-acquired the rights to all WWE programming.
In September 2011, WWE officially announced plans to launch the WWE Network in 2011 as a pay-TV channel. WWE then conducted a survey asking people if they would pay for the WWE Network if it were a premium channel. In an email sent to WWE fans who might be interested in the WWE Network, WWE surveyed fans for their thoughts about the WWE Network airing WWE's pay-per-views to subscribers for no additional charge. The survey also noted that feature repeats of Raw and SmackDown, as well as footage from Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW), XFL, Smoky Mountain Wrestling (SMW) and WWE movies would also make the lineup. Original programming was also noted in the survey.
As the result of an online poll, WrestleMania Rewind was chosen as a name for a new WWE Network show on October 17, 2011. The launch date was set for April 1, 2012, which would have coincided with WrestleMania 28, and WWE's official website featured a countdown clock that would have expired on April 1. WWE Classics on Demand closed on January 31, 2012 to make way for the WWE Network. A free trial period was offered during the week of the launch. The logo initially used for the WWE Network eventually became the standard logo used by the WWE corporation in August 2014.
In April 2012, after WrestleMania 28, the Network received acclaim, with The New York Times saying that WWE had "positioned themselves on the cutting edge of Internet television." Later that month, the company announced that the network had 667,000 subscribers, short of the one million subscribers they needed to break even. As WWE's stock fell 50% the following month, Forbes described low subscription numbers as being of "additional concern" for investors after WWE's underwhelming NBCUniversal renewal deal. WWE offered a second free preview week of the WWE Network, which started July 7, in an attempt to sign new subscribers. A second report released at the end of July indicated that the network had reached 700,000 subscribers. WWE's goal was to reach 1 million subscribers by the end of 2012.
=== Expansion ===
On July 31, 2014, the company announced a 10-year, Canadian distribution deal for WWE content with Rogers Media which will see the company distribute WWE Network as a premium television service. Also on that date, it was announced that the WWE Network would launch in Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Singapore, Mexico, Spain, and the Nordics, among others on August 12, with Italian, Arab, German, Japanese, Indian, Chinese, Thai, and Malaysian launches planned for a later date. On October 30, 2014, in an attempt to increase subscription numbers from an announced figure of 731,000, the 6-month subscription requirement was dropped, allowing subscribers the option to cancel at any time. WWE had originally planned to launch the network on October 1 in the United Kingdom, but was delayed for a further month. The launch was confirmed to be taking place at 8 p.m. on November 3; however, 20 minutes prior to the launch, WWE announced that it had been indefinitely delayed. Vince McMahon publicly apologized for the delay. It was announced on January 4, 2015, that the WWE Network would be launching in the UK and Ireland on January 19, 2015, priced at £9.99 and €12.99 respectively, although some customers managed to register as early as January 13.
On January 27, 2015, WWE announced that the WWE Network had reached 1 million subscribers, with Vince McMahon saying that WWE would "remain focused on delivering an outstanding value proposition for ours fans by adding new content and new features in the coming year." On February 12, 2015, WWE announced a five-year partnership with television provider OSN to bring the WWE Network to the Middle East and North Africa as a premium service.
On July 30, 2015, WWE revealed the amount of subscribers for the Network at 1.156 million. This was announced as a part of WWE's financial reporting on the second quarter of the year, which had resulted in their stock price rising past $20.00 after closing on the previous day at $16.48. The total of 1.156 million paid subscribers marked a 13% decrease from the 1.315 million paid subscribers that was stated in the reports for the first quarter of 2015. WWE also revealed, including trial subscribers, they had 1.227 million Network users at the end of the second quarter, and over the entire lifespan of the Network, there have been over 2 million unique subscribers.
The WWE Network launched in India on November 2, 2015. On November 19, a report by market research and consulting firm Park Associates announced that the WWE Network had broken into the top five streaming services and trailed only MLB.tv in the sports category. The WWE announced the network would launch in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, and Japan on January 5, 2016, followed by Thailand and the Philippines on February 29, 2016.[49]
In April 2017, WWE announced a total of 1.949 million subscribers to the WWE Network, of which 1.661 million were paid subscribers.[50] At the end of the third quarter of 2017, the number had dropped to 1.5 million paid users.[51] In April 2018, WWE announced subscriber growth had reached 2.1 million, with 1.8 million paid.[52] At the end of the third quarter of 2018 the number had dropped to 1.6 million paid users.[51]
=== Switch to Endeavor, redesign ===
In January 2019, WWE Network signed with Endeavor Streaming to replace BAMTech as its operating partner. WWE's decision was motivated by the acquisition of BAMTech by Disney. Co-president George Barrios cited concerns over how BAMTech's relationships with third-party partners would be impacted by the sale, while WWE also sought greater control over the service and its operations, intending to partner with another vendor or take the service entirely in-house. The company decided to partner with Endeavor Streaming (formed primarily from the assets of NeuLion) to provide infrastructure and billing services, and Massive Interactive to develop a new front-end and mobile apps.[54]
The new WWE Network platform launched in July 2019, ahead of SummerSlam. It includes a revamped user experience, support for 1080p streams, new browsing tools (such as a new "Superstars" interface for filtering content by performers), and plans to add a download feature for offline viewing in the future. Support for certain legacy devices, such as PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and certain older smart TVs, was discontinued with the changeover.
==Availability==
The WWE Network is currently available through 186 out of 193 United Nations member states (including all 27 European Union nations) and two observer states such as the Holy See and the State of Palestine. It is also distributed through 3 non-UN countries: the Republic of China (Taiwan), Cook Islands and Niue. In late 2017, Liechtenstein and China were added to the list of non-available countries, however the WWE Network is still available in the Chinese special administrative regions of Hong Kong and Macau.

=== Repeat/archival programming ===
In addition to previous editions of the original programs listed above, the network includes many other previously aired events.
Although the United States parental guidelines rating system rates most weekly WWE television programs TV-14, the WWE Network broadcasts a wider range of content. A parental controls block is available and content rated TV-14 and TV-MA are preceded by an advisory warning. The network airs footage featuring Chris Benoit; it marks the first major airing of Benoit footage or even mention of Benoit in said footage since his murder-suicide in 2007. However, the Benoit tribute episode of Raw is replaced with the episode that aired internationally, a recap of championship matches. Also, Vengeance: Night of Champions in 2007 removes all references to Benoit during the ECW Championship match. Over the Edge 1999, infamous for Owen Hart's death at the event, is also available for the first time since its original air date; however, some portions of the event have been edited out of respect to the Hart family.
While the network promoted on-demand airings as being unedited, some instances of expletives, gestures, and all nudity are censored. Many programs were digitized for WWE 24/7 prior to the 2012 settlement with the World Wide Fund for Nature, and thus the "WWF" and the "WWF scratch" logo are censored in some instances.
At launch, all but one of New Jack's matches were removed from ECW pay-per-views, as was his surprise return at Heat Wave 1998, due to a combination of musical rights issues over his entrance music and the inability to remove the music without losing the original commentary audio. The deleted matches were eventually reinstated with replacement music and newly recorded Joey Styles commentary.
==== Pay-per-views ====
Almost every WWF/WWE, and ECW pay-per-view (PPV) event ever produced is available for on-demand streaming. This includes ECW's foreign ECW/FMW Supershows, When Worlds Collide, and WWF's No Holds Barred: The Match/The Movie.
In addition the pay-per-view section contains several events which did not air on pay-per-view, such as WWE events Royal Rumble 1988 and WWE Global Warning Tour: Melbourne. Many ECW Supercards are also listed as pay-per-views, despite never actually airing there. These events were placed on the WWE Network.

=== Independent wrestling content ===

All these are restored

* Broadcast Dark Main Event
* Push Notifications
* More behind the scenes content
* Fab Five: You select your five favorite superstars (past or present) and whenever you want you can click their name and the Network will randomly pull up a segment for you to enjoy. The feature can be customized by length (no more than 10 minutes, no less than 2 minutes, etc) or by type (matches only, no interviews, etc). Imagine if you had “The Rock” in your “Fab Five.” You have 10 minutes to kill so you select The Great One and out pops a random segment from a 1999 Raw. Maybe it’s a promo he cut in advance of a match. It’s nothing mind-blowing, but it’s entertaining. That’s the point, right? Select CM Punk and out pops a random Smackdown match from 2007. No more wondering what to watch, no worry that you might waste your time with a Red Rooster segment.
* Steal an idea from DVR and offer a 30 second skip button. One press and you jump back half a minute, not too much so that you jump past it, but not too little that you’re forced to click-click-click

*On ECW ONS 2006, when Jerry Lawler and Randy Orton each come out, originally their names were placed on an ECW name plate graphic. This was changed to a RAW name plate graphic

ECW ONS 2006
* After the F.B.I. vs. Tajiri & Super Crazy match (at 54:30 on the ppv/53:51 on the dvd), while on a shot of Big Guido on the floor outside the ring, Tazz said "I'll tell you what. I never saw anybody do that to Big Guido, that's for sure. He has no idea what hit him." The last sentence was edited from the DVD. Following that was a commercial, then a two-shot of Tazz and Joey Styles showing Tazz taking off the tape on his hands while he and Joey Styles talk about it. This bit of the shot was edited out of the DVD, which immediately cuts to the conversation about the championship matches.
* After John Bradshaw Layfield addresses the crowd (at 1:00:00 on the ppv/58:51 on the dvd), the crowd shot from the live broadcast has been replaced with a wide shot of the ring to mask the removal of a commercial.
* After Sabu enters the ring for his match (at 1:01:42 on the ppv/59:49 on the dvd), there was originally a "brought to you by X-Men The Game" ad. By taking it out, the DVD also removed a few shots of Sabu in the ring warming up.
* As Sandman leaves the arena after chasing Eugene out (at 2:08:45 on the ppv/2:06:36 on the dvd), the "Sandman is heading for the bar" line and the crowd shot were removed, and the Eugene on the bus joke was moved up with it now starting over the shot of Sandman leaving the arena instead of on a two-shot of Tazz and Joey Styles (it was originally placed after the ad that was removed).
The following scenes on Royal Rumble 2000 were included, that did not appear in the initial Pay Per View telecast:
* 2 scenes of Kurt Angle backstage after his match with Tazz.

* After losing the WWF Intercontinental Championship to Triple H in a ladder match, The Rock heads back to his locker room and cuts a promo on Triple H after kicking Dok Hendrix out.
* Dok Hendrix interviews both The Undertaker and Kane, with Undertaker saying that "Stone Cold" Steve Austin may have won the battle, but the war isn't over yet.
* Michael Cole interviews "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, who admits that his performance in the WWE Championship match against The Undertaker wasn't as good as it could have been.
