Profiles

Main Event is Australia's only pay-per-view channel. It transmits through Foxtel, Optus Television and Austar. It broadcasts major sporting and entertainment events such as boxing, professional wrestling, mixed martial arts, concerts and even Jerry Springer specials

In recent times, the channel has broadcast the Anthony "The Man" Mundine vs. Danny Green boxing fight and has broadcast nearly every World Wrestling Entertainment pay-per-view since 2001 (There was a contract negotiation period that prevented the WWE from showing WWE pay-per-views between January 2003 and August 2003). Since May 2006 it has also been broadcasting Total Nonstop Action Wrestling pay-per-views, and since 2007, the Ultimate Fighting Championship started screening their PPV's. It also broadcast WWE's weekly programming (for free) as FOX8, the usual broadcaster, was busy fulfilling a schedule for the 2006 Commonwealth Games.

Main Event has also broadcast large concerts for artists such as Christina Aguilera and Beyoncé Knowles in the past. Due to changes in the recent television deals, Australian Football League Friday Night Football matches will be shown on the channel live in New South Wales and Queensland.
