A 12-year partnership has officially come to an end, as WWE’s programming has been removed completely from the Hulu streaming service.
The first show to disappear was SmackDown ahead of the show’s move from FOX to the USA Network, and now WWE’s other programming has also left the service, as detailed by PWInsider.
As well as SmackDown, replays of WWE’s weekly programming such as Raw and NXT had long been available on Hulu via a next-day agreement.
Other shows set to leave Hulu include NXT Level Up and Main Event, as well as other WWE reality shows Miz & Mrs, Total Divas and Total Bellas.
Despite this change, some WWE content will remain on the service such as the WWE A&E documentaries and the Hulu original series: Love & WWE: Bianca and Montez.
With SmackDown already beginning life on the USA Network, NXT starting on The CW on October 1 and Raw moving to Netflix in January 2025, the Hulu partnership ending is yet another big change affecting how fans watch WWE content.
As well as these changes, Raw is also set to move from three hours to two for the first time in 12 years beginning October 7, however, this move is reportedly a temporary one until the show moves to Netflix.
As is SmackDown’s own reported change from a two hour show to three, which is reportedly set to take affect as of January, and last until June.
