Not a shocker that Punk is interested in MMA or that he'd want to work with UFC but plenty of shock that UFC would sign him to fight.

Punk has zero athletic credentials outside of being a professional wrestler and casual training. Has never fought at any level. Is 36 years old.

The backlash seems to be that UFC looks bad for signing a "celebrity" to fight.

Kenny Omega in town tonight for a big show at Doubles Fun Club. 13 years of PCW. Come check it out. If you like wrestling you won't be disappointed. 9pm bell. Adults only (booze and VLT's)

Boorns !!!  Totally would of checked it out!   

Sorry for the short notice. Didn't want to feel like I was advertising on here

It was an amazing show. 300 people. Kenny Omega brought the NJPW World Junior belt with him (very historic). Great night!

For those interested, WWE Network launches today on SHAW.  Havent seen which channel yet.

 

I did read on the SHAW site that customers will not have access to the Over The Top streaming service which is interesting because I was under the impression that that access was done through WWE.com  I also believe that SHAW customers will not have access to any on-demand content at launch.

 

For $12 its worth it for WrestleMania but the real value is in the archival content.

I have had the free preview on Bell for the past month. Its really good only draw back is they repeat the same programing several times over the course of couple days. With Shaw though you will be able to access on-demand content eventually which although not as big as what is online still a big library.

WWE offers access to their Over The Top service to customers though so that would give you full access to the US version of the Network including all archival content.  Ill have to play with it to make sure I can watch it on TV using a connected device.

So it is confirmed that the WWE advertises that Canadian subscribers to the Network channel can get online access to the Over The Top service but what they do not specify is it's only for Rogers and Eastlink customers, not SHAW.  I will be cancelling after WrestleMania.
