WWE Network Losing Money

wwe network The Wrestling Observer Newsletter is reporting that WWE will lose more money this year and any wrestling organization has lost in a calender year, aside from WCW in 2000. WWE is projected to lose around 46-52 million dollars this year. WCW lost 62 million dollars in 2000.

WWE projected to lose about $23-$26 million in the first six months of the year. After the new television deal and the launch of the WWE Network, they expected to break even to end the year. Obviously, this is not the case.
