Viva will remain on cable and satellite but I don't think Viacom have confirmed whether they will launch Spike elsewhere yet. They may decide to do the same on satellite and cable too, but nothing confirmed yet.

What was reported last year was "VIMN is also aiming to secure distribution for Spike on Virgin Media and on the UK’s digital satellite platforms. Spike’s launch on Freeview will be made possible by the removal of VIVA from the platform. The free-to-air UK TV rights to Viacom content previously owned by VIVA will now be made available to 5*, while VIVA will continue to be available to cable and satellite viewers in the UK and Ireland."

But I feel something is in the wind with Virgin Media working on some Virgin on Demand channels on the EPG last night.

Well spotted.
I shall keep a beady eye on this thread over the next few days.
