WWE Network goes global

STAMFORD Conn. August 12 2014 – The U.S. English language version of WWE Network is available starting today on an over-the-top basis in more than 170 countries and territories including Australia New Zealand Hong Kong Singapore Mexico Spain and the Nordics among others. The network is expected to be live in the U.K. by this October and plans for the network in Italy UAE Germany Japan India China Thailand and Malaysia will be communicated at a later date.

For $9.99 (U.S. dollars) per month with a six month commitment fans will have access to 24/7 programming all 12 live WWE pay-per-view events and the most comprehensive video-on-demand library. In addition subscribers can now choose a monthly offering at $12.99 (U.S. dollars) with no commitment and the ability to cancel at any time. The $12.99 price point is a change from the previously announced $19.99 monthly plan and allows WWE to offer an option with no commitment that we believe better reflects the variety of economies that exist internationally.

Like other digital subscription services such as Netflix and Hulu Plus fans are able to subscribe online by going to WWE.com and clicking on the WWE Network button on the top right corner of the navigation bar. Throughout the day WWE Network will be made available internationally across all platforms including web mobile gaming consoles and connected devices.
