Mark Evans, FOX Sports’ Senior Vice President of Sales told TheBigLead.com in a recent article looking at how FOX will handle challenges by ESPN and CBS that he’s not worried about WWE’s declining ratings.
“We feel how we’re going to present and how we’re going to promote the WWE is going to inject it with such a new life. It’s going to be a home run for us.”
Beginning October 4, 2019, FOX broadcast network will air WWE SmackDown Live as part of a new five-year agreement with FOX Sports. The weekly, two-hour live event will air 52 weeks a year.
