WWE and SiriusXM have struck a new deal that will bring a dedicated WWE channel to satellite radio for the first time. The new station, called WWE Radio, is set to take over channel 156 starting July 27, replacing the network’s existing Pro Wrestling Nation 24/7 channel. The move brings WWE’s audio presence on SiriusXM under one roof, combining live event coverage with an expanded slate of original programming tied directly to the company.
The centerpiece of WWE Radio is live audio coverage of WWE’s premium live events, along with select weekly episodes of Raw. That coverage kicks off just days after launch with SummerSlam, one of WWE’s biggest shows of the year, which will air live on the channel with Vic Joseph and Booker T on the call. SiriusXM will also carry additional programming in the days leading up to the event as part of the buildup.
WWE Radio’s lineup will lean heavily on WWE’s growing podcast partnership with Fanatics, bringing shows like Cody Rhodes’ What Do You Want to Talk About?, Six Feet Under with The Undertaker, Steph McMahon’s What’s Your Story?, and Sam Roberts and Megan Morant’s WWE Now, Raw Recap to the channel. Several of SiriusXM’s existing wrestling programs are staying put as part of the new setup as well, including longtime flagship show Busted Open with Dave LaGreca, Bully Ray, Mark Henry and Nic Nemeth, along with Notsam Wrestling Live with Sam Roberts, Cheap Heat Live with Peter Rosenberg, The Hart Beat with Natalya, and Off the Ropes with Raj Dhesi, Mark Henry and Tommy Dreamer.
WWE executive VP Alex Varga framed the partnership as another avenue for fans to connect with the product, saying the deal will deliver exclusive access and live event coverage that brings fans closer to the action wherever they are. SiriusXM’s Jared Fox, SVP of Sports Programming, Content Marketing and Partnerships, called it an effort to build the most comprehensive wrestling audio platform in the industry, pointing to the combination of SiriusXM’s existing wrestling programming with WWE’s live events as the foundation for a 24/7 home for the WWE Universe.
The timing lines up neatly with WWE’s move away from Peacock and toward ESPN as its new streaming home, giving the company another major media touchpoint to lean on as it heads into the back half of 2026. For longtime SiriusXM wrestling listeners, the change also means Pro Wrestling Nation 24/7, which launched just over a year ago as the first 24/7 channel dedicated to pro wrestling, is being folded into this new, WWE branded iteration.
