Unless Sky happen to take the WWE broadcast rights back from TNT Sports ( and include a deal for the WWE network rights similar to which Comcast have in the US with Peacock) i can't see this happening at all.

 

For an app to be present on Sky Glass/Stream it requires a lot of effort and support from the third party who owns the App.

@Steven_B 

Because usually customers choose a thread title then type their question or issue as a post.

 

As customers on here no one will be privy to Skys future plans.

For any app to be hosted on Sky hardware there needs to be an ongoing commercial relationship between Sky and the app owner to cover Sky support costs, including call centre staffing: this makes Sky different to most platforms (because it's fundamentally a subscription service) and inherently limits the number of apps which will ever be there.

I think it won't happen based on what people have said above. But WWE have recently announced a changed of deal with their broadcaster from peacock to Netflix. So if you have Netflix you should be able to stream it later in the year I believe

The WWE Network is closing down this year as Netflix are taking over the majority of broadcast and on-demand rights from 2025 so it's highly unlikely to appear on Sky Glass or Stream

Indeed, from January 2025 worldwide everything is moving to Netflix, so you will be able to access all your WWE content via the Netflix app.
