WWE’s Night of Champions premium live event goes live on ESPN today (May 31, 2026) at 1 p.m. Eastern — the first hour on the cable channel and its new subscription streaming platform; the remainder just on the latter. Or if you’re in most markets outside the U.S., the whole card will be on Netflix.
Before anything happens in the ring at Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabi, WWE is serving up a free live stream of its Countdown show starting at 11 a.m. ET.
Even though the formerly known as Kickoff shows
get two hours leading into the main broadcast for every PLE, there aren’t matches on them any more. That means lots of excellent video packages, and even more sometimes entertaining and/or interesting commentary for a panel of hosts and wrestlers!
Again it all starts at 11 a.m. Eastern, so if you’ll be watching, click play above and watch it at Cageside!
