The sports entertainment powerhouse and pay TV giant, majority-owned by News Corp, have been TV partners for more than 20 years and have now expanded their deal to include WWE Network.
The new multi-year partnership in Australia, financial terms of which weren’t disclosed, “will see Foxtel Group’s portfolio of entertainment brands become the home of WWE in Australia,” the companies said. The new agreement will “deliver the biggest line-up of WWE’s live and on demand content to Foxtel Group’s 4.5 million subscribers on Foxtel, as well as the rapidly growing streaming services Kayo Sports and Binge.
Said Foxtel chief content and commercial officer Amanda Laing: “We are thrilled to remain the long-term partner of WWE and be part of what will be an exciting new chapter for WWE in Australia. The reach of the Foxtel Group is a game-changer for our partners, such as WWE.” Under the deal, Foxtel’s streamer Binge will become “the new streaming home of WWE Network in Australia from January 2023 with all WWE premium live events, including Royal Rumble and WrestleMania 39, and entertainment content available with a Binge subscription, starting from just $10 per month,” the partners noted. “WWE will continue to be available to all Foxtel subscribers on both the FOX8 channel and on a new, dedicated 24/7 WWE channel to launch from December 2022.
Binge executive director Alison Hurbert-Burns added: “For generations WWE has delighted fans across the globe and we’re thrilled this expanded partnership makes Binge the new streaming home of WWE in Australia. We can’t wait to bring WWE’s unpredictable drama, larger-than-life personalities from past and present, including Roman Reigns, Rey Mysterio, Ronda Rousey, John Cena and The Undertaker, along with all the world-class WWE action to passionate Australian fans.
