WWE Cracking Down on International Network Phishing

Dec 6, 2019 - by James Walsh

WWE is reportedly putting their foot down in regard to people who use VPN to access the US version of the WWE Network. The WON reports that the company found a way to put a stop tp those in other countries who use a US proxy address to get the Network in unauthorized fashions.

The site notes that this is largely directed at Canada, where the Network is a channel on cable providers due to deals WWE has with them. Some in Canada have been using the VPN method to subscribe, as the Canada version doesn’t have more than a limited about of VOD content. Depending on the number of people who are actually doing this, it could have a negative impact on US subscribers to the Network.

The site notes that the most-watched Network shows of the past week are:

1. Starrcade 2019
2. Survivor Series 2019
3. WWE 24: Trish Stratus
4. Starrcade 2018
5. Broken Skull Sessions (The Undertaker)
6. WWE NXT (11.28.19)
7. NXT Takeover War Games 2019
