Disney and FX in the running for WWE broadcast rights.
TL;DR Summary
The WWE has finished its exclusive negotiating window with Fox and Comcast/USA Network without a new deal. While Fox and USA Network are considered the favorites to retain WWE’s broadcast rights when they expire in Oct. 2024, Disney and Amazon could each make a strong run at it. One party that does have interest in adding the WWE is Disney, according to sources. The potential cable placement would not be ESPN, but rather FX.
