I thought it was very strange Chicago was getting a September house show. We typically have the same schedule every year & get a September Raw, followed by a house show the weekend after Christmas. I'll be interested to see what we get in December now. Hopefully we don't get payback next year.

Why doesn't he wrestle in house shows but not on Raw? House shows are pointless and mean nothing so why not have him and Orton main event a Raw?

We haven't gotten a pay-per-view not called Payback or Extreme Rules in five years. crap's getting old.

Hes a lazy guy who only does german suplexes now and we have seen he can do more.

In the UK we have to pay for Sky Sports which is the channel Raw and Smackdown are on and PPV's cost 14.99 so realistically nothings ever been free for us.

Hes a lazy guy who only does german suplexes now and we have seen he can do more. True and Brock has been around 4 years now and has still to wrestle on a Raw. Wrestling for free shouldn't devalue anything imo and all he does is suplexes so what's so special?

For live Raw, it's part of a cable package. For PPVs, you gotta put that NINE NINETY NINE in Vinnie Mac's paw.

I didn't think anyone was still confused about the difference between TV shows and PPV on a wrestling forum in 2016. To clarify for anyone who struggles to understand... Raw: A television show on the cable channel USA Network. You do not have to pay a fee to WWE to watch. PPV/Network Specials: You have to pay a fee to WWE to watch. This is why the TV shows build the PPV for several weeks, and not the other way around.

The answer to that question is no, but, of course, you have to have a cable package to have access to it. So, in effect, no WWE programming is free for anyone.

I'm grateful to get a pay-per-view every year, but as one of WWE's best crowds, I think they should throw some big events our way instead of just throwaways.

Nobody is taking out an entire cable package solely for a Raw main event. Brock is a draw but not that much of a draw.
