On the same day that TKO Group Holdings (the merger of the WWE and UFC under the Endeavor banner) held its first-ever earnings report, we have some additional clarity on where the WWE's shows are going to end up after their current contracts.

Back in September, we learned that the professional wrestling company and NBCUniversal had reached a five-year domestic media rights deal that sees SmackDown moving from FOX to USA Network beginning in October 2024 . But while USA Network is gaining one show, they're about to lose another. The CW is set to be the new home for NXT, with a new five-year deal beginning in October of next year that will see the show air weekly on broadcast television.

'We are thrilled to welcome the WWE brand into the CW Sports portfolio as they play an integral role in our mission to bring live sporting events to the network year-round,' added Dennis Miller, president of The CW Network. 'WWE NXT is a perfect fit for The CW thanks to its dynamic young talent featuring the hottest rising stars in the sport and exhilarating, unpredictable weekly events.
