- The Sept. 20 card streams in the U.S. on ESPN Unlimited in the ESPN app, with the live international feed available on Netflix; the main show begins at 7 p.m. ET after a 5 p.m. ET preshow.
- ESPN lists lead‑in coverage including an ESPN2 special on Sept. 19, a Road to Wrestlepalooza block, and postshow programming within the app.
