A new application that allows fans to stream WWE PPV’s through their PlayStation 3 systems was unveiled by Sony Entertainment on Tuesday, August 14th.

The Live Events Viewer, which is currently available for download through the PlayStation store, lets users stream live events directly to their home consoles.

Users will also have the option to watch the events on demand, although, a PPV fee may be required.

WWE SummerSlam, which airs live this Sunday (Aug. 18), is being pushed as the first of many big events streamed through the app.

Courtesy of PlayStation.com, here is the step-by-step process for how to download the application to your PS3.

To get ready for WWE SummerSlam, download the Live Events Viewer app for free:

  3. Once the Live Events Viewer is downloaded, find it on the XMB under TV/Video Services.
  4. Log on with your PSN or Sony Entertainment Network username and password.
  5. Then, enjoy watching WWE’s SummerSlam this Sunday, including the pre-show starting at 4:00pm Pacific Time (7:00pm Eastern), and other to-be-announced live events on the Live Events Viewer.
