I scanned pages 1-5, I didn't see a topic on the WWE Network other than the trailer being posted. So, my question is this and I am sure nobody knows as of yet but is this network going to be one of those premium channels that you will need to pay for such as HBO, Showtime, Cinemax, etc?
I only ask because according to prelim reports, WWE is planning on airing the "big four" exclusively on this network. How will allowing this network to be available on cable make profit for the WWE? Sure the cable companies will pay them a nice sum of money but I just can't see WrestleMania airing on "free tv" or on a network that doesn't cost a monthly fee.
Football fans know the hardships that the NFL went through with their network. I only just got the NFL Network in 2008 and it's been around since 2003. My only thought could be that these cable companies will add the WWE Network to their sports packages such as Comcast did with the NFL Network.
Any thoughts?

It's 100% not gonna be on basic cable. You will have to pay for it every month.
