Looking to extend its partnership with ESPN, WWE has added the NXT promotion to the streaming service.
The CW agreed to add CW Sports' live events, including NXT, to the ESPN app starting on August 4. Following the latest episode of NXT, all Tuesday episodes, and the Heatwave event on August 30, will air on the app.
Before making the main roster, NXT was the first stop for several favorites, including Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, Rhea Ripley, Becky Lynch, and more. Today, you can watch the next generation of WWE superstars vying for a spot at the top.
The first event will see Kendal Grey and Lola Vice in action. They are major assets for the brand. Jaida Parker, Tony D'Angelo, Zaria, Charlie Dempsey, and more will also make appearances throughout the show's run.
Here’s how to watch NXT each week, what you need to stream it and where CW still fits into the picture.
How to watch WWE NXT on ESPN App
- Live stream: ESPN app
Fans looking to stream WWE NXT can watch live on the ESPN app.
This can be done through CW Sports, available for all ESPN Unlimited Plan subscribers.
CW Sports includes college football, college basketball, NASCAR’s O’Reilly Auto Parts Series, bowling, bull riding and volleyball.
ESPN Unlimited is designed for fans who want access to ESPN’s networks without relying only on a traditional cable or satellite package. Some pay-TV providers also allow eligible subscribers to activate ESPN Unlimited through their existing account.
“Joining forces with ESPN is a monumental next step in the evolution of CW Sports,” said CW Network President Brad Schwartz. “The CW now offers more than 800 hours of premium live sports per year.
"This agreement extends the reach of CW Sports and enables us to capture audiences across the best of broadcast and the best of streaming, ensuring fans can access live CW Sports wherever they are and on whatever device they prefer."
