the 9.99 is worth it for the PPV alone imo anything else is a bonus so it really doesnt bother me surely all wrestling fans have the channels to watch everything else on TV anyway?! I get what you are saying, but the main reason I have the Network is for NXT. Granted it did not start that way, but for years NXT has been a staple on the Network and then all of a sudden it is just gone and gone without any kind of announcement. Why would I watch a TakeOver event when I am a week behind on the TV show? It is just a really crappy move by the WWE to do this. Here in the UK for me to get BT Sports, the channel NXT is on would cost me an extra £30 a month on top of a Sky Subscritopn that would be an extra £20 or more a month! I actually cut the cord many years ago in regards to a TV subscription and only have Netflix, Prime, WWE Network and now Disney Plus. If anyone in the UK can let me know how I can still watch NXT I am all ears ![:)](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/smiley.gif)

I also am in the no cable club, and honestly am thinking about cancelling my subscription too. Not that I wouldn't renew it, but I'd operate similar to impact. I get a month every now and again to binge on classic content. NXT was the reason I kept it month to month as well.

I think going month to month might be the way I do it from now on. i saw quite a few people question WWE about this on twitter so hopefully, if enough people kick up enough of a fuss or cancel their subscription the WWE will change NXT back to airing on a Friday.

Again, I thought this was how it’s been since October or whenever they were put on USA full time. Don’t know what BT is but Hulu puts stuff up the next day

Don’t know what BT is but Hulu puts stuff up the next day I'm not sure if that was the case in the states, but in Canada we had it on Thursdays once it went USA full time. 24 hour delay wasn't too bad, I was willing to pay for that. Not for a week though, considering in Canada even if I did have cable, I still wouldn't be able to watch NXT. They do a condensed 1 hour version last I knew, but I literally have zero legal options to watch the full broadcast until it gets uploaded to the network a week later.

Don’t know what BT is but Hulu puts stuff up the next day The WWE and BT deal started here in the UK I think in January and right until the beginning of April, we still got NXT on Thursday/Friday. Then out of the blue without any announcement or reasoning, it just did not air last week and the week before. It took people on Twitter calling the WWE for them to actually announce it. It is a real scumbag move if you ask me. When SKY had the WWE here in the UK it was never an issue, but now all of a sudden it is. I could deal with it airing a day later, actually watching NXT on a Friday night was my thing for years and I loved it. A week? No thanks, I will pass.

NXT was a staple on the network for years, because it wasn't shown on tv - and now it is. I suppose now it's on USA like RAW, they don't rush to put it on the network, because they assume most people have at least basic cable, and can watch it on tv. Also, you don't need SKY to get BT.

Ok, but RAW and Smackdown have always been on the Network with a massive delay since day one. NXT has not, it is unfair to change things this late in the game and expect people to pay the same amount of money. Why should I have to give BT my money? There is no way anyone can spin this as a non bull crap move on the WWE's part, especially seeing as they did not even announce this was going to happen. They just let it happen and then told people about it.

Ok, so I have another update in the WWE's bullcrap decision to geoblock NXT by a week here in the UK.
I tried using a VPN on my PlayStation 4 and changing the location to the USA, but it still did not work.
It is now at the point where someone on here pointed me in the direction of a way I can watch NXT on my computer the next day. In all honesty, if it was not for the awesome documentaries that the WWE does as there is no other way to watch them I would cancel their Network in a heartbeat over this.

As an update in Canada, after two to three weeks of it being delayed, it has spontaneously started showing up on Thursdays again for two weeks. Hopefully it sticks, and potentially a VPN location that will work for UK folk if it remains this way again.
