Wrestling fans will be able to choose their pass based on their content preferences. Three different passes will be offered throughout the year:

  • Tournament pass: Fans will be able to choose specific events they're most interested in. Cost might vary based on the popularity and significance of the event. The tournament pass will give fans access to the live stream of that specific tournament and also special features, interviews, and previews exclusive to each event.
