Sky only recently signed a deal with WWE see here

Pure speculation on my part but could it be an extended deal to include On Demand via Sky On Demand and possibly Now TV ?

As it'll be a standalone subscription i thought it would be on at least VM and Sky?
Why launch on one and not the other?

The cat's among the pigeons, at a stretch it could be included as part of a Sky Sports subscription and no longer a standalone subscription.

I think it's a case of wait and see.

That makes sense, also wonder if the channel could become part of the Sky Sports pack but probably not. Will be interesting to see what transpires.

Was WWE Network supposed to launch on SKY today?

This morning on my SKY+ box the was 2 seperate WWE on demand options in the catch up area. One has since vanished. The one that remains has zero content in it. Usually it's full with RAW, Smackdown, Slam City, WWE Vintage..... Not sure what is going on.
