WWE and SiriusXM are launching a dedicated 24/7 radio station on channel 156. The new channel, titled WWE Radio, officially debuts on Monday, July 27, just days before the SummerSlam event. This move positions the network to provide direct coverage of upcoming WWE Premium Live Events and weekly flagship television programming. Listeners can tune in for live commentary on SummerSlam provided by NXT announcers Vic Joseph and Booker T.

The existing Busted Open Radio program remains part of the lineup under the new banner. Hosts Dave LaGreca, Bully Ray, Mark Henry, Tommy Dreamer, and Nic Nemeth continue their roles on the platform. The expansion includes additions such as Notsam Wrestling Live with Sam Roberts and Cheap Heat Live with Peter Rosenberg. Other programs like The Hart Beat with Natalya and Off the Ropes with Henry, Dreamer, and Jinder Mahal also join the schedule.

Daily content blocks are set to feature established WWE podcasts. Programs such as Cody Rhodes' What Do You Want To Talk About? and The Undertaker's Six Feet Under will broadcast daily at 4 p.m. This transition integrates existing wrestling radio staples into a centralized media hub managed directly by WWE. The launch marks a shift in how the company distributes audio content to its audience, streamlining access to both news and event coverage.

For fans of the existing shows, the transition represents a consolidation of wrestling media under one brand. While the format changes in name and management, the personnel behind the microphones remain consistent with previous broadcasts. The station will maintain a heavy focus on the leadup to major events, starting with the two-night SummerSlam spectacle. This initiative represents a new chapter for professional wrestling broadcasting on satellite radio.
