WWE Survivor Series: WarGames 2025 is one of the most anticipated wrestling events in recent memory. It is WWE’s third premium live event (formerly known as a pay-per-view) airing on ESPN’s new streaming service.
The first was its broadcast of Wrestlepalooza at the end of September, and the most recent was Crown Jewel in October.
The ESPN partnership marks a major shift in WWE broadcasting following the company’s long-time deal with Peacock.
The 39th annual edition of the event will air live from Petco ParkinSan Diego, California, so the airtime is slightly earlier than usual; the event kicks off at 7 p.m. ET.
