WWE appears to be sticking to its plans for Premium Live Events by changing the start time. The company has already confirmed its schedule for this year, which runs through August.
In March, it was reported that the company was considering moving domestic PPVs to an earlier start time. However, it was stated that no final decision had been made.
WWE’s pre-shows typically air at 7 p.m. ET, with the main card following an hour later. Years ago, this was the standard main card start time for events before it was moved an hour later to 8 p.m. ET.
According to PWInsider, WWE has decided to keep the earlier start time for now, as events such as WWE NXT Heatwave, SummerSlam, and The Bash at Berlin will continue to take place at that time.
UFC President Dana White revealed that WWE PLEs will eventually move to Sundays. He didn’t say when that would happen.
Here’s the current WWE PLE schedule.
Saturday, May 26, 2024: WWE King & Queen of the Ring, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
