WWE fans wants to watch the companys premium live events wherever they are in the world. Sportsnet was a viable option for a lot of fans, but they recently changed up their police.
Sportsnet is under fire from subscribers after pulling WWE Premium Live Events from their previously included premium package. This change has particularly irked legendary indie wrestler LuFisto, who took to social media to express her frustration over the sudden shift.
LuFisto shared her disappointment on X, tagging Sportsnet directly. She made it clear that the deal when she purchased a years premium package for $250 was that it would come with WWE premium live events, but now Sportsnet wants an additional $15.
Under the new arrangement, WWE fans who want to access Premium Live Events will now have to pay an additional $14.99 per month, a change that does not apply to existing subscribers like LuFisto who had paid upfront for a full year of access. While its unclear whether Sportsnet had the right to make such changes under the terms of their service agreement, the decision has left many feeling short-changed.
Sportsnet is already losing WWE programming thanks to the new Netflix deal. So, this is not a step in the right direction for those fans who are using the service.
This development has led some subscribers to explore alternatives, such as using VPN services to access the WWE Network directly. The situation has sparked a broader conversation about subscription fairness and customer satisfaction, as fans weigh their options in light of the unexpected change.
We will keep our eye on this story to see if there are any updates. Hopefully, they can do something to make this situation a lot better for LuFisto, and anyone else in her situation.
How do you think Sportsnets recent decision to remove WWE Premium Live Events from their package will impact their subscriber base in the long term, and what steps could they take to regain trust from affected fans like LuFisto? Let us know in the comments.
