Here are some tidbits regarding to SpikeTV dropping WWE.
Both sides seem to be under some sort of a gag order, so details have yet to be released, but we’re expecting more news from this situation soon. Despite the tough negotiations, WWE was surprised to have been let go, which they now feel will take their leverage from negotiations with USA. But we know that WWE would be more than happy to join USA once again.
We have also read reports indicating that TNT, TBS and FX all turned WWE down for negotiations. This, too, is a bad sign for any other wrestling organization, for a promotion with as much of a fan base as WWE to be turned down, its clear that these networks aren’t interested in pushing a wrestling product.
For those wondering if TNA will strike oil with SpikeTV, as of this report there has been no contact between TNA and Spike.
More CSI shows appear to be taking the place of all WWE programming on Spike.
