To be honest changing the name of a Sports channel operated in India, Asia to Eurosport Will not be a wise move.
This is ASIA not Europe.

Eurosport launching from 14th February. Valentines Day gift for all sports lovers in India. Also expecting Eurosport player to launch and a host of new sports live events. With 6 cricket boards having their media rights tender this year, it would be an opportunity for Eurosport to make a big entry into this market if they win the rights of any or all of these rights!

I had sent email to RC Venkateish on 3rd dec about new NJPW eps, he replied the next day that he'll bring latest wrestling eps. (2-3 weeks of delay, instead of current 11 months)

btw I asked about HD channel too, but he didn't mentioned any word about that.

They don't all matches in tv episodes. 2-3 weeks doesn't matter. We want pay per views.

even US/UK doesn't gets full PPV.. it's japanese promotion, TV Asahi owns every footages, not the promotion, so they really can't on TV (only via FITE.TV)
