Every so often the WWE Network updates their “Most Popular” recommendations. While the exact science to this section isn’t completely known, we do know that it seems as though the live stream doesn’t directly impact it. However, chances are selecting “watch from the beginning” would count as views. Regardless, it is always interesting to see what is being watched and it may just encourage you to check something out! So without further adieu, let’s see what is today’s Top 20!

Closing Thoughts
Most of this list isn’t very surprising. Not as much NXT after everyone binged last week, and yesterday’s numbers aren’t accounted for. But how in the world did Music Power 10 crack to the #3 spot?! That’s absurd. I still wish they’d do more videos like that. Not in place of other content, but in addition to. They’re fun shows that could go up on a Thursday or Friday to offer something new instead of only replays.
