What about all the other WWE shows (WWE Velocity, The WWE Experience, and WWE Sunday Night Heat)? They're all being cancelled by Spike TV, are they not?

They aint moving to USA.
There making a new Saturday Morning show, "WWE A.M RAW"
Hence the reason for all the releases, moving to USA there losing money financially i have read and also there getting less time on TV.
They are all being cancelled by Spike TV, in place of Velocity TNA iMPACT is airing.

I would like to see WWE Velocity and WWE Sunday Night Heat web cast on
www.wwe.com. Just like TNA Impact is done right now on the web.

There's no reason why WWE cannot utilize WWE.com to do that. I would love to see them do that. That way, I could watch the shows when I wanted to instead of trying to be home for them on their regular nights.

I agree. TNA has gotten support by being innovative in that way. Hopefully WWE can do the same and air weekly Heat & Velocity for fans who miss out on the main shows and need the recaps.

Please as a courtesy when mentioning TNA Impact please realize that there are some on here that do not know what TNA is yet so please try to make it a point in all of your posts (when mentioning TNA) that TNA Impact airs on Saturday nights at 11pm beginning October 1st on Spike TV.

WWE and it's fans are getting a "RAW" deal (pun intended) with this paucity of wrestling programming on USA. Not everyone has a high speed connection so will they play their weekly shows on WWE.com? Doubtful. Sad day for wrestling fans...

I think the elimination of the shows is a good thing. Let the people at WWE concentrate on making good RAWS for awhile.
TNA airing might be a blessing in disguise especially if they eventually move it up to compete with the WWE. WWE began shining again when WCW was on top. Competition is a healthy thing!!

I agree that competition is a great thing but they need to give Impact a better time slot! I would like to see Spike TV put a live episode of Impact against RAW on the 9-10p time slot and see how they do. It may happen...

I think it will in the future. If some other show whether it be UFC or TNA gets better ratings than RAW, Vince will take a hard look at the sport and improve it....maybe he'll start listening to the advice of the Hot Rod!! All the fans would appreciate it!

On WWE.com, Jim Ross said the futures of both WWE Sunday Night Heat and Velocity would soon be announced. They still have international deals to honor so more than likely they will continue to produce the shows and air them on WWE.com.
Personally I do not have a high speed connection, but even if I did, it is not the same as getting it over the air since you are unable to tape the shows. Yeah, I know you can watch the episode whenever you want online, but you still can't record it to video. True, you could burn it or port it to a VCR with some required equipment but that takes additional effort and resources. TV and wrestling have always been about simplicity...
