ESPN’s future begins streaming on Aug. 21, and starting next year, it will have a lineup of notable new events joining it. The sports media giant on Wednesday officially announced the launch date for its forthcoming streaming service, which will be called, simply, ESPN.

Royal Rumble, SummerSlam and more from the WWE will come with a subscription to ESPN's new streaming platform.

ESPN and WWE reached a five-year, $1.6 billion agreement that includes exclusive rights to air the wrestling company’s premier live events (PLE) beginning in 2026, according to the Wall Street Journal, as part of the Worldwide Leader’s new direct-to-consumers streaming service launching later this month.
