For two weeks now JackTV which owns the broadcast of WWE programs and Pay-Per-Views failed to broadcast the latest episodes of WWE Monday Night Raw and WWE Smackdown, sources told that Solar TV which also owns JackTV is under negotiation with the World Wrestling Entertainment whether to continue their partnership. Last week, a teaser(click here to view the teaser) for Studio 23's upcoming airing of WWE programming was posted on their Facebook page, and today, Studio 23 finally posted the schedules of WWE programs which will air beginning March 16.
Here is the actual post from Studio 23's Facebook page:
WWE ba kamo?
Eto na ang inaabangan niyo!
WWE Raw - Simula Mar 16, Fri, 9:30 pm (replay every Tues, 9.30 pm)WWE NXT - Simula Mar 17, Sat, 8:30 pm (replay every Wed, 9:30 pm)WWE Superstars - bagong oras simula Mar 18, Sun 8:30 pm (replay every Thu 9.30 pm)
Dito lang sa bagong HOME OF WWE!
At last! WWE is back and this time it's on free TV. Great job ABS-CBN! You're the best when it come to sports and entertainment programs. World Wrestling Entertainment shows will now be added to Studio 23's line-up of global and top caliber sports programs like Ultimate Fighting Championship and NBA.
Before this announcement was made, I was a bit worried because I also found a WWE teaser on AKTV, I don't want WWE to air on AKTV because they might put a Tagalog commentary on WWE shows which will ruin everything. But If you have noticed, WWE Smackdown is not included on Studio 23's line up of WWE shows, and there are speculations that it could still air on AKTV, bad news then.
But anyways, I'm still happy that Studio 23 was still able to acquire the rights to broadcast WWE Raw and I'm sure that they will also air WWE Pay-Per-Views I don't have to download it from Youtube anymore, and it's WrestleMania 28 time! I'm glad that I'm gonna see the epic
battle between Undertaker and Triple H inside Hell in a Cell and the main event match between John Cena and The Rock.
