Off the top of my head I can think of

Rugby League
WWE (If you can even call that a Sport)
NFL
Tennis (not sure which events)

I'm sure people can think of many more , my train of thought is are these the Sports Sky is more willing to lose rather than getting in a bidding war for ?
Rugby Union, currently:
Sky have...England home internationals, shared European club rugby, and all SANZAR tests.

They lose the European rugby as of 2018/19 season.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sports...United_Kingdom seems pretty accurate, and from my reading (and channel flicking during events), Sky have mens tennis and BT have womens.
