If it weren't for NXT and classic content I would have cancelled too. I have 0 interest in giving WWE money for the product they are currently putting out.

Omgz roman won we shall kill the empire! It's a show Let it be written the way it's suppose to be for Christ sakes. I miss the old days where fans didn't have a social media outlet to complain or didn't uproar shows at live TV events and be so rude to the performers One thing about those old days... we didn't have to sit through year after year of terrible booking decisions and having certain characters shoved down our throat. There were a few bad years here and there but not like nowadays. People have the right to complain. And I think the complaints don't necessarily have to do with the fact that their favorite wrestler didn't win, but about the big picture state of the wrestling industry in general.

Vince said #CancelWWENetwork didn't make a big difference. 200,000 would be a big difference so most must have canceled before the Rumble.

Like most people said it had nothing to do with Roman winning but The Royal Rumble match as a whole was so, so awful. We had a RR party and it felt like those last 15 minutes we were repeatedly getting kicked in the gut. They should have closed with the 3-way.

WWE isn't a charity. If you don't like the product, you shouldn't be paying for it. If you feel like you're getting your $9.99's worth with just classic clips and NXT, but have no interest in the current product, then so be it.

200k users is what, 24 million in yearly revenue? Hope it was worth it

I fail to understand why some are getting off on this, but to each their own I suppose.

I was one of those who cancelled simply because yeah the PPV's were bad. If WWE ends up putting more 04/05 Smackdown tapings then I'll go back.

And most will sign up before Mania rolls around. So I don't see how this is considered a win for anyone.

But they did listen to the fans and gave Daniel bryan the title last year.So now because the fans want Daniel Bryan in the Main Event again they wanna boo and cancel because they don't get what they want.I'm sorry but I DON'T want bryan in the Main Even at WM.I didn't even want Roman in the main event either but that doesn't mean I'm gonna boo everything I'm just gonna sit back and see what happens.I feel some people take this Way too seriously.

It's just a bunch of idiots crying about the current product,so they cancel their subscription. 80% will sign back up anyway.

He should have been in from the get-go. How many Main Events has Cena been in? I'm not his biggest supporter but he's always been hot. Bryan has been the first organically made Top Star since Edge and he's more over than Edge ever was. You don't demote someone when they're still rising. I hate the "he had his moment" argument. There is soooo much money to be made with Bryan. Unfortunately, he doesn't have the "look". Also, I love how everyone is supposedly being dramatic. Or calling people idiots. Aren't you the same people who say 'if you don't like it don't watch'? Well, this was a direct way to show WWE how we feel about the product.

As much as I disliked the finish of the Rumble, I never once thought about cancelling the Network. If I dislike the current product, I always have the classics to fall back on (which I wish they would have more live events and WCCW on there). I gotta be honest, I've always found that the Network was mostly meant for the hardcore wrestling fans of every different era to be the only ones to subscribe. Now with the commitment being removed, expect a bunch of people to subscribe and resubscribe every now and then while the loyal fans will stay on because of things like NXT, every PPV, whatever else people subscribe for. I subscribe for the full package. As a hardcore wrestling fan since the year 2000 at the age of 5, I watch the Network to watch the old PPVs and TV shows that I used to love watching as a kid. I subscribed to watch the shows and PPVs I have never seen in my life or wasn't even born to watch, which my older brother got to as a kid himself. So basically the only thing that I can think off that could make ever consider cancelling my subscription for is if they take away NXT, and remove stuff from the archive, not counting the 12 Days of Attitude content, since I'm sure they'll add those shows back in one day.

Because Vince is going to openly admit to investors and the public, how much influence they could potentially have on WWE's bottom line? I think not. Let's be real. A crapton of people canceled after the Rumble, but WWE likely stopped the hemorrhaging by offering up a free month to other dopes.

Actually, yes, Vince has to tell the truth to investors and the public. Misleading investors would have dire consequences for the company.

I wasn't too thrilled with the Rumble either but wouldn't be cancelling my sub to the Network over it. I am enjoying the classic content WAY too much at the moment.
