NBC Universal, WWE strike deal
- Share via
World Wrestling Entertainment Inc. said Monday it has signed a three-year deal to broadcast its wrestling events on NBC Universal’s TV networks.
Starting in October, WWE’s weekly shows will broadcast on NBC Universal properties, including “Monday Night RAW,” which will be seen on the USA Network, as well as other shows aired on Telemundo and NBC.
The agreement reestablishes WWE’s relationship with the USA network, which started in 1993 and ended in 2000 when “Monday Night Raw” moved to Viacom Inc.’s Spike TV. In March, Spike TV said it had ended talks with WWE and that it would invest in original programs and new acquisitions.
