Earlier this week, the UK launch of the WWE Network was delayed at the 11th hour, with a lot of speculation that WWE?s ongoing negotiations with Sky TV being the culprit. WWE Chairman Vince McMahon offered a personal apology to UK fans, assuring them WWE is working around the clock to resolve the matter.

 
An SEScoops.com reader contacted Sky Sports customer service and was informed that WWE Network will be launching as a satellite channel on Sky Sports (not an over the top digital network), similar to channel?s availability in Canada via Rogers Communications. The Sky Sports customer service rep stated:
 
?Yes, we will launch it as a channel with Sky TV. Currently we don?t have any details but it will be going to be soon? And you will will be notified by adv, email or call.?
 
When asked directly if the WWE Network will be a  satellite channel and not available online as it is in the United States, the Sky Sports rep said, ?Yes, that is correct.?
 
WWE has yet to comment on the situation.
 
Here?s the full chat transcript:

    • Apple Maps

      By Joni_78 · Posted

      My son is in Monaco right now, and I was checking his location in Apple's Find My app. I noticed that Prince Albert's Palace was blurred out on the satellite imagery in both Find My and Apple Maps. I checked Google Maps, and the palace wasn't blurred there. Does Apple have some kind of process where property owners can request that their homes be blurred on Apple Maps?

      No, it was THAT ugly and I’d rather forget it completely existed.
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      There is a lot of reasons not to use Edge but faster fixes and security updates is not one of them.
    • Can't access the forum on mobile

      Can't reproduce. I installed Edge, went to neowin.net > accepted the cookie consent > used menu to go to forums, everything loads and I can browse around the forums. If you can't interact with the dialog on the forums for some reason, go to the main site and accept the cookie consent there? It is true that the site will not function properly until the cookie consent is accepted or rejected,. it's a legal requirement and I also know that certain VPN/ad blockers block it, which is a user related issue and not a neowin.net problem.   This is not our cookie consent dialog. Gotta love browser hijacking... /s Edit: this may be what Californians see, I will confirm with our consent provider.
