CHANGES TO THE SKY SPORTS CHANNELS: WHAT DOES THAT MEAN FOR WWE FANS?

If you haven't already noticed but Sky Sports has rebranded this morning, but what does that mean for wrestling fans? Hello, I am Eamonn Bermingham, Wrestling Blogger and Sky Customer and I have done a small investigation into how WWE will be shown in Britain for quite some time.

First, The Channels are no longer numbered, they are now Niched into a single Sport or Aspect of Sport

• Sky Sports 1 is now Sky Sports Main Event-This channel will show nothing but Live events as it happens and will show wwe raw and smackdown Live. It will also have a sky sports news show at 10pm, unless stated otherwise.
• Sky Sports 2 is now Sky Sports Premier League. All the live FA CUP Matches and football related documentaries
• Sky Sports 3 is now Sky Sports Football. All the international and world Cup qualifiers, as well as documentaries on the greats.
• Sky Sports 4 is now Sky Sports Cricket. Live Games and Ashes
• Sky sports 5 is now Sky Sports Golf. Live Players and Masters, as well as golf tutorials.
• sky f1 has not changed. it's still a load that exists despite f1 being a seasonal sport!
•  A new channel has being launched- SKY SPORTS ACTION! It will show live the sports that are not big and important in Rupert Murdoch's eyes to warrant it's own channel (darts, horses, dogs, rugby, G.A.A. and nfl)
• Taking Sky Sport Mix's spot is Sky Sports Arena, a place for arena sports like boxing, nfl and wwe!
• Sky Sports mix is now on 121 where sky Arts use to be! whether that means its now on the entertainment package is up to debate. Sky Sports News still exists.

TEETHING PROBLEMS THIS WEEK!

The consensus was that Arena and Action will have designated days and this Wednesday (18/07/17) is wwe day On Arena. However this means we will only see This weeks Raw on Monday and this week's main event and smackdown on Saturday. But by next week, this designated day thing is dropped, with raw repeated on Wednesday night and Smackdown and main event on Thursday night. However it's really a case of same old, same old as while the time of the repeats will no longer be shafted by cricket soccer or golf because they have their own channels, wwe will still be shafted by tennis, rugby, G.A.A. or if they book all the home nation world cup qualifiers on the same night! to which to those who want to change their subscriptions, buy Main Event and Arena, And Action, to cover a base, and you'll never miss a minute of wwe!
