Hulu Plus subscribers will be able to have next day access to USA Network's WWE Monday Night Raw series and other WWE shows as part of a multi-year deal between Hulu and the WWE.

The deal will give WWE fans unlimited instant streaming access, additional content and programming on-the-go to all of WWE's TV programming the day after the content airs on broadcast and cable TV, according to WWE officials.

Hulu Plus subscribers can also go to Hulu Latino to see WWE’s digital show, WWE En Español, the Spanish-language magazine program that recaps WWE’s most exciting moments each week. 

“As a clear leader in digital content delivery, Hulu is an ideal partner for WWE,” said Vince McMahon, WWE Chairman and CEO. “Hulu delivers more ways for our fans to experience WWE programming than ever before.”
