If you are a regular WWE viewer then you know they are really pushing WWE Network on their audience. It's certainly understandable considering they launched it from scratch, it cost a lot of money and they are trying to reach their goals. Currently it's only legally available in the United States, but it's expected that it will roll out in other countries towards the end of this year or early next year. A new report from PWInsider suggests we will be seeing a lot more angles done on the WWE Network pre and post-shows for RAW, SmackDown and pay-per-view events. There have apparently been discussions about doing angles on them that would lead to the next WWE TV show or pay-per-view. These changes are expected to start taking place soon. At this point we have no idea how many people are watching the pre and post shows. My feeling as a viewer is that if you're already sitting down for three hours of Raw, why would you want to tune into 30 minutes before the show and 30 minutes after? That's four hours of WWE on a Monday night. We may be passionate fans, but that's a lot. The same can be said for Smackdown too. This past week, WWE chose to leave John Cena off Raw and instead they had him cut a promo about Bray Wyatt on Main Event instead. Since Main Event is a WWE Network only show, they figured that if they had one of their top stars on it may cause people to subscribe to WWE Network or at least tune into a show that they might otherwise avoid. What WWE will have to do is make fans aware of these angles happening on the pre and post shows by showing highlights on Raw and Smackdown. Using those pre and post shows to set up matches is fine, though. It's better than simply doing promos without consequence. The negative to that idea is viewers aren't going to consider anything to be a major happening unless it's on Raw or Smackdown anyway. It's going to be hard for WWE to train viewers to tune into WWE Network for promos or backstage angles after they've already sat through a show. One thing we know about WWE is they will definitely promote it heavily. That's for sure.
