THE GREATEST HEEL TURN that Pinoy wrestling fans experienced was the time when Roman Reigns became...
...Was the moment when the Philippines wasn't included in Netflix's WWE Raw subscription.
The hype surrounding WWE in Netlix Philippines disappeared and fans wondered where to witness the intense drama and action of professional wrestling.
With that in mind, here are ways for Pinoy wrestling fans to enjoy WWE's products.
Netflix + VPN
Netflix + VPN is simply a Pinoy wrestling fans' version of the Mega Powers featuring Hulk Hogan and the Macho Man Randy Savage, as these two combined would create the ultimate powerhouse.
Netflix has a wide array of services especially in countries like the United Kingdom, Singapore, Spain, etc. where fans can witness the Premium Live Events (e.g. WrestleMania, SummerSlam, etc.), Raw, NXT, and Smackdown, in the higest quality possible.
In addition, Pinoy wrestling fans can also get a chance to watch exclusive TV series and films that are only available in international shores. You'll definitely feel Hogan's leg drop and Savage's diving elbow to perfection.
Blast TV
Blast TV features matches from Raw, Smackdown, and NXT, however the Premium Live Events aren't available.
There's also another drawback as the platform is filled with advertisements left-and-right.
However Blast offers a variety of shows for Filipinos to enjoy watching. Besides WWE programs, fans can also enjoy the free movies, anime, TV series, and even international sporting events like Euroleague basketball or UFC, making it an all-around package similar to Seth Rollins.
TAP Sports
For those who still use cable TV, TAP Sports is the go to option and it is available for Cignal TV and Sky Cable subscribers.
TAP Sports features the following channels namely Premier Sports and Premier Football, where Filipino sports fans can witness international events like Serie A, NFL, UFC, NASCAR, and the like.
Plus it is the hub for wrestling fans as the platform features WWE products, though similar to Blast TV, it is limited to Raw, Smackdown, and NXT.
WWE Network
While the likes of TAP Sports and Blast TV are only limited to WWE's weekly shows, WWE Network in the Philippines offers the Premium Live Events, but unfortunately that's it.
It's perfect for wrestling fans who are obsessed with pay-per-views like WrestleMania, Royal Rumble, as well as historians who would love to revisit the past glory days of prime Triple H, Edge, and other legends.
YouTube
The most accessible platform as Pinoy wrestling fans can easily watch the weekly highlights and recap through WWE's YouTube channel.
In addition, WWE has recently revived the Saturday Night's Main Event program in 2024, which gives Pinoy wrestling fans a chance to freely watch a full program of their idols slugging it out, though this event is only held a few times per year.
