NXT’s premium live events are moving to CW beginning this summer in a multi-year deal announced on Tuesday.
The broadcast partner, which airs NXT’s weekly program on Tuesday, has committed to air the premium live events beginning with the Great American Bash this summer. The deal will include 20 premium live events over the span of the deal and air “in their entirety on both coasts”.
NXT’s PLEs previously streamed on Peacock, with that deal expiring last month. Due to the expiration, the Stand & Deliver special streamed on YouTube in the U.S. on April 4 has 809,000 views.
With the shows airing on CW, viewership information will be available for each premium live event throughout the deal.
The news was first reported by Front Office Sports, which is a content partner of WWE’s, and announced one hour before the press release was distributed.
In 2026, NXT is averaging 612,000 viewers and 0.09 in the 18-49 demographic on Tuesday nights.
The roster has undergone major changes with a series of call-ups in recent months, resulting in the departures of Oba Femi, Trick Williams, Je’Von Evans, Joe Hendry, Ethan Page, Ricky Saints, Sol Ruca, Blake Monroe, and Fatal Influence.
