The CW acquires the rights for NXT premium live events in the United States

The CW Network and WWE today announced all NXT Premium Live Events will now air exclusively on The CW.

The agreement will start with The Great American Bash and The CW will air a total of 20 PLEs live on both costs over the next several years, although the exact duration was not revealed.

With the addition of NXT PLEs to The CW’s lineup, the network is now the exclusive home for all NXT programming.

“WWE NXT has energized our Tuesday nights by consistently delivering a loyal and passionate fanbase to The CW every week,” said Brad Schwartz, President, The CW Network. “Adding WWE NXT Premium Live Events to our schedule is a natural fit, providing one broadcast destination for audiences to watch all their favorite Superstars, storylines and championship matches.”

The partnership between the two parties started in October 2024 when The CW acquired the rights for the weekly NXT television series in a five-year deal.

“The CW has played an integral role in raising the profile of our up-and-coming Superstars, and we are excited to bring NXT Premium Live Events to broadcast television for the first time ever,” said Shawn Michaels, WWE Senior Vice President of Talent Development Creative.

NXT PLEs aired on Peacock up until Vengeance Day of this year. Stand & Deliver aired on YouTube in the United States after the deal had expired and there was not a new one in place in time for the show.

These PLEs will continue to air on Netflix internationally.
