Apart from their agreement with ESPN, The CW today also announced a partnership with The Roku Channel, where next-day streaming of CW shows will be made available for those who have Roku devices.
New episodes of WWE NXT will be made available to stream on The Roku Channel every Wednesday following its live Tuesday night broadcast on The CW, and now also on the ESPN Unlimited app.
“Partnering with Roku supercharges the reach and accessibility of The CW’s premium entertainment content,” said Brad Schwartz, President, The CW Network. “By combining The Roku Channel’s expansive audience with The CW’s nationwide linear footprint, we’re bringing together the best of broadcast with the best of streaming to unlock unprecedented scale for our content, our audience, and our advertisers.”
In addition to the fresh next-day premium broadcast content, The CW hub on The Roku Channel will also feature over 800 hours of CW library content. This agreement will kick in come Fall 2026.
