In recent months, the Extreme Channel in the UK has began airing events from notable wrestling promotions, including a monthly special from NJPW, NORTH events, and will air a Burning Heart show on December 7th.Fightful Select’s Corey Brennan enquired with sources at The Extreme Channel about the shows airing on the channel, and learned that there are plans to expand it’s wrestling coverage in 2025, as the channel will become available in more regions, along with it’s own app. While promotions like Hustle Wrestling and more have made their debuts recently, we have also learned of other promotions that the channel is in contact with regarding future shows airing.When we asked about competition amongst other platforms like Triller and PROGRESSOnDemand, we were told that there is no competition, as the channel is airing events as an alternative and in the spirit of collaboration. One source we spoke to hoped that the channel could help bridge the gap of collaboration in British Wrestling. We were also told that the channel averages between 6k and 7k viewers when airing pro wrestling shows, with hopes to expand that viewer base in 2025.
