Well, it won’t happen, will it? Sport is like a drug for a large section of the population.

I see the exclusive window for NBC and FOX to re-negotiate with WWE is over. Rumours that Amazon and now Disney will join discussions. If Disney gets it then it would be the network possibly moving to Disney+ eventually with weekly shows on FX.

Still NBC and FOX are favourites to keep the shows but i wouldnt mind disney plus getting it! even though this is in the USA i'd assume Disney would be keen to have the rights in other countries too

Disney doesn't have a sports presence in the UK so I doubt they would be interested in UK rights.

Sky would still have the 4 week exclusive for Raw and smackDown until they have to agree again.

There is a ESPN Player for the Europe (including the UK). It costs £9.99pm for very little 'premium' live coverage - but has five streaming channels.

Laura Woods is rumoured to be lined up to become the main face of TNT Sports.

She is leaving Talksport at the end of this month presumably to take the TNT job.
