WWE Signs Non-Exclusive Deal With Netflix as New U.S. Home for Content Library

WWE has officially partnered with Netflix in a non-exclusive deal that brings its historic content library to the streaming platform in the United States. The deal, effective immediately, allows Netflix subscribers to access WWE’s archive of premium live events held before September 2025, including some of the most iconic shows in wrestling history.

What’s Included in the Netflix Library

Under the agreement, Netflix subscribers in the U.S. can stream all WWE premium live events prior to September 2025, such as:

  • WrestleMania
  • SummerSlam
  • Royal Rumble
  • Survivor Series
  • Other major WWE pay-per-view events

In addition to the live event archive, the deal covers WWE documentaries and other library programming, giving fans access to decades of historic matches, storylines, and behind-the-scenes content.

The deal is non-exclusive, meaning WWE retains the rights to license its content to other platforms. This approach allows WWE to expand its reach while still leveraging Netflix’s U.S. subscriber base.

For fans, this deal is a significant upgrade in accessibility. Longtime followers and new viewers alike can now stream classic WWE events on-demand without subscribing to separate wrestling platforms. 

Endeavor, the parent company to UFC and WWE, Is Going Private

Endeavor, the parent company of WME and the majority shareholder in combat sports powerhouse TKO Group (owners of UFC and WWE), is going private.

This comes after the announcement that the private equity firm Silver Lake has agreed to acquire Endeavor. The acquisition is valued at $13 billion, and shareholders in Endeavor will receive $27.50 per share.

Endeavor in October 2023 announced its “strategic review” to boost shareholder value which may include going private.

“Silver Lake believes that when consolidating all of TKO’s value into Endeavor, the combined total enterprise value of $25 billion will make this the largest private equity sponsor public-to-private investment transaction in over a decade, and the largest ever in the media and entertainment sector,” the companies said.

Formed last year, TKO Groups Holdings will remain a publicly traded company, it “will continue to benefit from its connectivity to Endeavor’s expertise, relationships, and significant capabilities,” – Endeavor and Silver Lake said.
