Update On United Kingdom Promotions Possibly Coming To WWE Network

There’s more than enough room. The WWE Network has been an amazing gift to wrestling fans. Starting just over four years ago, the WWE Network is now the go to place for the most wrestling content in the world, including the majority of WWE’s material from history and hosts of other promotions’ video libraries. However, there’s other wrestling in the world to be seen, so what can they do? Well how about coming under the WWE umbrella?

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, there is a strong chance that Insane Championship Wrestling (a Scottish promotion) and Progress Wrestling (a British promotion) will be brought to the WWE Network in the near future. This idea has been considered for a long time now but Vince McMahon reportedly changed his mind again and allowed the idea. While no date has been confirmed, there is a chance that the announcement could come as soon as the United Kingdom Championship Tournament events in London next month.

WWE and Progress worked together for the Cruiserweight Classic and it’s a really cool combination. Check it out.

Opinion: The more the merrier really and it’s not like ICW and Progress will be hurt by this. Giving them another outlet to showcase their talents and draw in more fans is a good thing and could help them grow their businesses. Throw in the extra content for WWE and how do you go wrong here? These promotions have been hot as of late and maybe they open the gates for several more promotions from around the world. A lot of that talent wants to be in WWE one day and this could be a foot in the door.

Do you watch either of these promotions? Which promotions do you want to see on the WWE Network? Let us know in the comments below.
