Coming up on the WWE Network we have a bunch of brand new shows including a special Finn Bálor documentary, more Swerved, a first look at the “Monday Night War Vol. 1: Shots Fired” DVD, as well as the big live special featuring Brock Lesnar’s return to in-ring action – “The Beast in the East, Live From Tokyo”.
New Shows After RAW
After RAW this week we have two new shows incoming! Firstly, the second WWE Swerved episode; the Network’s “Jackass” style show. Episode two will feature R-Truth getting a lesson in gym safety and Kofi Kingston locking Seth Rollins out of the arena before Extreme Rules.
Additionally, we will also have a 30 minute ‘First Look’ at the new “Monday Night War Vol. 1” DVD/Blu-ray, and specifically that promises to preview the never-before-seen interview segments with Sting and Triple H, which were hosted by Renee Young. As I’m sure you know by now, the Monday Night War DVD/Blu-ray releases on July 7th [PRE-ORDER NOW].
The Miz steals it with “Tough Talk”
On Tuesday evening The Miz will return once again with Tough Talk, the awesome (pun intended) Tough Enough post-show; frankly Tough Talk as a whole was actually a very entertaining show — maybe Miz should have been selected as the main show’s host as well, because he absolutely outshined Chris Jericho who hosted the main show.
Renee will be back!
Wednesday features the return of Renee Young, as this week she will be Unfiltered with WWE Hall of Famer, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and the cast of Terminator Genisys!
Finn Bálor takes NXT and Tokyo
Seeing as how Wednesday night is wrestling night these days, of course we need some NXT. This week we’ll see Finn Bálor team with Samoa Joe to take on Kevin Owens and Rhyno, just days before Finn heads over to Tokyo to battle for the NXT Championship.
…and speaking of Finn Bálor, Thursday night we have a special original feature on the way – “Finn Bálor: The Demon Revealed“. The 30 minute documentary promises to provide us with an in-depth look at the life, career and future of the Demon.

Great article. For those who can’t access WWE Network due to geo restriction like me, you can use UnoTelly or similar tools to get it in your country.
I guarantee you that the Finn Balor documentary is the 3 dedicated Balor segments that have aired on NXT over the past 3 weeks (part 3 airs this week). I’m sure it’s those 3 segments together that make up this documentary.
You are all right dad!!
Just a little correction on the UK start time for the japan show its on at 10.30am and not at 9.30am
We just really don’t want you to miss the start. 😉
Speaking of the Network, I’ve noticed WWE have added more Prime Time Wrestling episodes. From early 1987.
The lineup for The Beast In The East has been updated due to Tyson Kidd’s neck surgery. Now it’s Lucha Dragons vs Big E & Xavier Woods, and Cesaro vs Diego in a 1-on-1 match. Also it’s Nikki vs Paige vs Naomi in a Triple Threat Match for the Title.
Apologies, I have updated this now.
No problem.
I’ve heard people question why Kofi would get the match with Lesnar. I actually think their styles could make for a really fun match. Plus it ought to be pretty entertaining to see Lesnar destroy all three members of New Day.
And I agree Miz did a good job with Tough Talk, it’s a nice way to let all the contestants get a chance to talk.
Kofi’s in there because they need someone that can make Lesnar ragdolling them look good. It’s not going to be a competitive match since Lesnar’s just there to visit friends in Japan.
