WWE and SiriusXM announce launch of WWE Radio

WWE and SiriusXM announced the launch of WWE Radio, which will begin airing July 27 on channel 156 and the SiriusXM app. WWE Radio will replace Pro Wrestling Nation 24/7 on the same channel.

WWE Radio will provide play-by-play audio coverage of WWE premium live events. Vic Joseph and Booker T will call it for radio and other programming.

The channel will also feature WWE podcasts, such as Cody Rhodes’ “What Do You Want To Talk About?” and Stephanie McMahon’s “What’s Your Story?” It will also feature daily shows, such as “Busted Open,” “Notsam Wrestling Live” and “Cheap Heat Live,” shows whose hosts (Dave LaGreca, Sam Roberts and Peter Rosenberg) have appeared on WWE programming.

The launch of WWE Radio came on the same week Jim Ross called out shows like “Busted Open” for being a “WWE infomercial” due to how often they talk about WWE and the lack of coverage of other wrestling promotions.

WWE also has made content partnerships with Spotify and Front Office Sports in recent years.
