Netflix is reportedly in discussions to add WWE-related video podcasts to its growing library of audio-visual content. According to a report from Front Office Sports, Fanatics has pitched the idea of bringing WWE studio programming to the streaming giant as part of a broader push into the podcasting space.
This news comes on the heels of Netflix announcing major deals with Barstool Sports and iHeartMedia to exclusively host video versions of their top podcasts. While audio for these shows remains free on other platforms, the video components will be locked behind Netflix’s paywall.
WWE and Fanatics already have an established podcast network partnership, producing shows such as Six Feet Under with Mark Calaway, What Do You Wanna Talk About? with Cody Rhodes, and What’s Your Story? with Stephanie McMahon. Currently, video versions of these podcasts are hosted on YouTube, but a deal with Netflix could change that distribution model.
“It was not immediately known if Fanatics pitched its existing shows and/or new ones to Netflix, but sources have told FOS that Fanatics and WWE plan to expand their partnership with more content offerings in the future, and have recently vetted talent for new programming,” Front Office Sports reported.
The relationship between WWE and Netflix is already deepening as they approach the one-year anniversary of their media rights deal. In January 2025, Raw moved to Netflix in the United States, and the platform became the home for all WWE content in many international markets. Additionally, season two of the docuseries WWE Unreal is scheduled to premiere on Netflix on January 20, 2026.
