Washington, D.C. (January 12, 2008) — The CW will begin broadcasting wrestling’s Friday Night SmackDown in High-Definition on January 25.
Additionally, during the week of January 21, Monday Night RAW and A.M. Raw on USA Network and ECW Extreme Championship Wrestling on the Sci-Fi Channel will switch to high-def.
All four programs are from World Wrestling Entertainment.
The WWE this month will also begin broadcasting its PPV specials in high-def, starting with the “Royal Rumble” on January 27.
The WWE says it spent $20 million to renovate its Stamford, Connecticut studios for the high-def broadcasts.
“The move to High-Definition programming is another step in WWE’s ongoing mission to provide fans with the most engaging, exciting product possible,” said Mike Grossman, WWE’s senior vice president for television operations. This upgrade will be the first of many technological advances for our brand in 2008.”
