WWE is expected to announce a new UK television deal with BT Sport. Telegraph.co.uk reports that WWE and BT Sport have agreed to terms on a new deal that will result in WWE programming leaving Sky Sports.
Powell’s POV: WWE has yet to announce the deal and BT Sport reportedly declined comment. We’ll let you know if the two sides make a formal announcement. Thanks to Dot Net reader Darius Malcisky for passing along the story.
Check below for the latest Pro Wrestling Boom Podcast with Jason Powell and guest Conrad Thompson discussing Starrcast II, Undertaker pulling out of the event, hosting AEW rallies and his friendship with Tony Khan, thoughts on how WWE podcasts could work, and more.
I contacted Sky about this and was told: ‘We still hold the rights to WWE coverage until the end of this year. That is all we know at this stage. If anything changes an announcement will be made publicly.’
