WWE Programming goes to TV5!
There are two ways to watch WWE shows in the country legally. One is to subscribe to WWE network while the other one is to watch it on TV networks. Previously, WWE shows are only available on FOX and unless you’re connected to a cable or subscribed to FOX, you wouldn’t be able to watch Smackdown Live! or RAW. But yesterday, FOX has announced that the company and WWE didn’t reach an agreement to continue the airing of WWE programming on the network.
And that’s the bottom line. #WWEonTV5 pic.twitter.com/tEXbADevql

But thankfully, you’ll still be able to watch WWE programs but in a different network. WWE arrives in TV5 and there aren’t too many details about it aside from the fact that TV5 will start airing WWE programs starting April 30, 2017. Oh and thank God, WWE won’t be Fildubbed in TV5.
PSA: Para po sa mga nagtatanong, hindi Fildubbed ang #WWEonTV5 ????
