I know Wrestlemania is on this Sunday in the States. Anybody please know when it's on T.V here in Korea.

And to pre-empt all the smart aleks thinking of replying with some rude comment. I know wrestling is dumb as hell, but I find it quite funny. It's my opinion and I'm sticking with it.

It will be on in 3 weeks or so.

If you want to watch it in the next few days, you will have to download it somewhere.

If you wish to watch it live, it'll cost you $50 or so.

I don't remember wrestling ever being show live. I download it a few hours after the PPV finishes.

Well, the time of the live event would be from 8am till noon on Monday, but (unlike most boxing and MMA pay-per-views) I don't think Korean TV can show it for free until at least several days later.

It's much better (unless you're fluent in Korean) to see it with English commentary - plus the Korean broadcast blocks out "violent" action that they think kids might imitate - so I'd recommend either paying for the webcast ($54.95) at the WWE website

- or waiting till it's posted on Youtube, etc. (sometime Monday afternoon or evening before they get deleted ...)

There are a couple sites listed here that might work:

There's a lot of information and amusing commentary on pro wrestling and MMA at this website: http://www.betweentheropes.com/

They're based out of Orlando (where I used to hear them on the local sports-talk radio station...) so they'll have the event covered from all angles ...

They're showing free streaming from the Hall of Fame induction ceremonies now on the wwe.com site.
