WWE And SiriusXM Launch 24/7 WWE Radio Channel

WWE and SiriusXM are teaming up to give wrestling fans a round-the-clock home for WWE audio content, with the new WWE Radio channel set to launch on SiriusXM channel 156 on Monday, July 27 — just days before SummerSlam kicks off in Minneapolis.

The channel will serve as a hub for live play-by-play coverage of WWE’s biggest Premium Live Events, including WrestleMania, SummerSlam, Royal Rumble and Survivor Series, along with audio simulcasts of WWE’s weekly television programming. Its first live broadcast will cover both nights of SummerSlam, on Saturday, August 1 and Sunday, August 2, with Vic Joseph on play-by-play alongside WWE Hall of Famer Booker T.

“We’re excited to bring the WWE Universe closer to all of the in-ring action at WWE’s biggest events on SiriusXM, beginning with wall-to-wall coverage of SummerSlam in Minnesota,” Booker T said.

In the days leading into SummerSlam, WWE Radio will also air a series of live shows from the Minneapolis Convention Center, with Dave LaGreca, Bully Ray, Mark Henry, Tommy Dreamer, Sam Roberts and Peter Rosenberg hosting segments built around storyline previews, guest interviews with WWE talent, and fan interaction.

Beyond the SummerSlam coverage, the channel folds in SiriusXM’s existing wrestling programming slate, anchored by the long-running “Busted Open” with LaGreca, Bully Ray, Mark Henry and Nic Nemeth airing weekday mornings. Other shows moving to the new channel include “Notsam Wrestling Live” with Sam Roberts, “Cheap Heat Live” with Peter Rosenberg, “The Hart Beat with Natalya,” “Off the Ropes,” and the nightly call-in show “Busted Open After Dark.”

WWE Radio will also carry a batch of WWE-produced podcasts made in partnership with Fanatics, airing daily at 4 p.m. ET. That lineup includes Cody Rhodes’ “What Do You Want to Talk About?,” The Undertaker’s “Six Feet Under,” Stephanie McMahon’s “What’s Your Story?,” and “WWE Now, Raw Recap” with Sam Roberts and Megan Morant.

WWE Executive Vice President Alex Varga framed the deal as part of the company’s broader push to widen access points for fans, while SiriusXM’s Jared Fox called the venture the most comprehensive wrestling audio platform in the industry.

The timing is notable. Pairing the channel’s launch with SummerSlam weekend gives WWE Radio an immediate marquee event to build around, and folding established shows like “Busted Open” into a single branded destination suggests WWE and SiriusXM want wrestling fans thinking of channel 156 as the default place to turn for both live results and daily storyline discussion — not just during premium events, but year-round. With WWE’s media rights and content strategy increasingly focused on maximizing touchpoints beyond weekly television, a dedicated audio channel fits neatly into that expansion, and it will be worth watching whether future PLEs get similar live-call treatment beyond the marquee four mentioned in the announcement.

WWE Radio goes live on channel 156 nationwide, and through the SiriusXM app, starting July 27.
