    WWE loses to Olympics, has to move RAW, NXT for two weeks

    By KD Drummond,

    There's no place like home. Or, at least that's what Dorothy told us. The WWE will tell you that isn't the case, however, as they have to relocate four of their shows over the next two weeks. The 2024 Summer Olympic games are in full swing, and thanks to their broadcast arrangement with NBC Universal, they've kicked WWE off of their primary home, USA Network, and into other spaces.

    NBC Universal is home to a bunch of broadcast and cable networks, including USA, Sci-Fi, The Weather Channel and more in addition to their news stations. So while USA is giving up their slots to Olympic shows, Sci-Fi channel (branded SyFy) will pick up the slack and carry both Monday Night RAW and NXT for the next two weeks worth of shows: July 29, July 30, August 5 and August 6.

    Those dates sandwich, of course, WWE's next PLE, SummerSlam 2024, live on Saturday from Cleveland, OH.

    WWE Friday Night SmackDown and NXT Level Up are unaffected. Those shows, running live on FOX at 8pm eastern and WWE Network/Peacock at 10pm eastern, remain in place. Here's the full broadcast schedule for the next two weeks.

    WWE Monday Night RAW: July 29: (SyFy, Mondays at 8pm eastern)
    WWE NXT: July 30: (SyFy, Tuesdays at 8pm eastern)
    WWE Friday Night Smackdown: August 2: (Fox, Fridays at 8pm eastern)
    NXT Level Up (WWE Network/Peacock, Fridays at 10pm eastern)

    WWE SummerSlam: August 3: Peacock

    WWE Monday Night RAW: August 5: (SyFy, Mondays at 8pm eastern)
    WWE NXT: August 6: (SyFy, Tuesdays at 8pm eastern)
    WWE Friday Night Smackdown: August 9: (Fox, Fridays at 8pm eastern)
    ​​​​​​​NXT Level Up: August 9: (WWE Network/Peacock, Fridays at 10pm eastern)

    Things will return to normal for RAW and NXT for the August 12 and August 13 episodes.

    Here's everywhere you can attend a WWE event for the rest of 2024.
