Every Thursday or Friday night the WWE Network updates its schedule advertising new content set to air on the live stream in the coming week. It should be noted that like anything, schedules are tentative and air times, air dates, and programs are always subject to change. Additionally, this reflects only what is set to air on the Network stream and does not include content added directly to the video-on-demand service.
We’ve covered how extensive the WWE Network additions have been this past week. While original content was lacking, old school content was through the roof. But what about next week? Let’s take a look at what’s new.

Closing Thoughts
Looking through the schedule, it was looking pretty dim before Sunday. Still, it certainly isn’t the busiest week when it comes to fresh original content. I wonder when these new TV shows like Ride Along will pop up? Usually shows advertised during a PPV are set to air or begin airing during the month after, so hopefully they’re still to come.
Either way, Sunday will make for a strong day. Regardless of the booking, the TLC PPV is likely to be quite strong in terms of quality and probably one of the strongest of the year for in-ring work. Add in the Stone Cold Podcast with Shawn Michaels and Sunday definitely has the attention. Looking ahead, though, I hope to see more archived content with what is mostly a slower week.
As always, stick to the WWE Network Chronicle and we’ll update you as we learn more.
