WWE ANNOUNCES TEMPORARY HIATUS TO PREPARE FOR EXCITING NEW ERA
December 21, 2024
World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) has always prided itself on pushing the boundaries of sports entertainment and delivering unforgettable moments to our loyal fans across the globe. Today, we are making an unprecedented announcement as part of our commitment to evolving the industry and creating something truly special for our audience.
Effective immediately, WWE will take the remainder of the year off to focus on producing, polishing, and perfecting its most ambitious project to date: the debut of WWE on Netflix, premiering January 6, 2025.
This groundbreaking partnership with Netflix will revolutionize the way fans experience WWE, merging our signature high-octane action with a fresh cinematic style that promises to elevate sports entertainment to unparalleled heights. Our debut on Netflix will feature exclusive matches, original series, and a reimagined live-event experience, all designed to deliver the most engaging content WWE has ever produced.
“WWE has always been about innovation bro and providing our fans with the best possible entertainment bro,” said Vince Russo, WWE Head of Creative.
“Taking time off wasn’t an easy decision bro, but it’s the right one to ensure that when WWE returns, we’re bigger, bolder, and better than ever bro. Our debut on Netflix bro marks the beginning of a new era for the company bro—one that will redefine what it means to be a WWE Superstar bro and what it means to be a fan bro.”
During this short hiatus, WWE Superstars will have the opportunity to recharge, refine their craft, and prepare for the next chapter of their careers. In the meantime, fans can relive their favorite moments with the extensive library of WWE content available on Peacock.
The wait will be worth it, and we can’t wait to share what we’ve been working on. Join us on January 6, 2025, for the next chapter of WWE as we make history with our debut on Netflix.
