We reported a couple of months ago that WWE was interested in possibly working with some independent wrestling promotions to be featured on the WWE Network. WWE was surveying fans about what promotions they would want to see, including: Ring Of Honor, EVOLVE and several others.

According to the latest Wrestling Observer Radio (subscribe here), Vince McMahon has decided that he wants to try to get some of the hottest independent promotions for the WWE Network. It is not clear yet how this will play out but the report says that the next couple of months should be very interesting.
WWE released 2 different surveys earlier in the summer. One asked if subscribers would pay more to watch independent wrestling promotions on top of the stuff they already get on the WWE Network. This had pricing plans up to $14.99 a month for those that want the extra Indy content.
