After their massive Netflix streaming deal, WWE and ESPN announced yesterday that, from 2026 onwards, all Premium Live Events under the promotion will likely be available on ESPN for American audiences. Nevertheless, now that WWE programming will likely be on multiple platforms without delay, some fans are confused about where they’ll have the option to maintain up with the promotion, but in response to a report from “Fightful Select,” American audiences will have the option to access WWE PLEs in the next alternative ways:
From August twenty first onwards, ESPN’s latest streaming service will offer access to PLEs at a $29.99 monthly subscription. This subscription will moreover allow access to ESPN’s linear cannels: ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, SECN, ACCN, ESPNews, and ESPN Deportes with additional sports broadcasts from ESPN+, ABC, and other platforms. Unfortunately, current ESPN TV subscribers is not going to all have access to WWE PLEs without an additional fee, and only customers of the next provides can have access to the PLEs through the ESPN app without an extra charge: Charter (Spectrum), DirecTV, FuboTV, Hulu Live TV, and Verizon Fios.
Moreover, the report added that those that access ESPN through other major streaming services – like Comcast (Xfinity), YouTube TV, DISH, Sling, Altice, Cogeco, Frontier, and Cable One – might want to have a separate subscription to ESPN’s latest streaming service to access WWE PLEs from 2026 onwards. Nevertheless, the report noted that ESPN could still cut latest deals with other streaming services but, right now, half pay TV users will need an additional subscription to follow WWE PLEs.
