– As noted earlier, WWE will announce their next quarterly results on October 30th and will reveal WWE Network subscription numbers after launching internationally. Seeking Alpha has an article here looking at WWE’s earnings for the quarter. The article noted that following the news from other subscription services like Redbox Instant and Verizon this past month, the chances of WWE Network hitting their 1 million subscriber goal “went down considerably.” The article added that a problem with the value of the Network is that nearly half of the company’s original content – RAW and SmackDown – appears on free TV already.
