WWE and Fanatics Unveil ‘The Raw Recap Show’ Podcast Launch

WWE and Fanatics have partnered to launch a new podcast, “The Raw Recap Show,” hosted by Megan Morant and Sam Roberts, following “Monday Night Raw.” Fans can expect instant-reaction podcasts after Premium Live Events starting with WrestleMania 41. The collaboration enhances WWE’s media offerings and solidifies Fanatics as the primary podcast partner, following their exclusive e-commerce partnership established in 2022.

WWE has entered a new era of sound as it joins forces with Fanatics, marking an expansion of their partnership that thrives on global e-commerce and licensed merchandise. Fanatics now takes the lead as the primary podcast partner, ensuring fans have direct access to rich audio content. The highlight is the upcoming launch of “The Raw Recap Show,” hosted by Megan Morant and Sam Roberts, set to air right after each “Monday Night Raw.” This exciting new podcast premieres on Tuesday following the latest episode on Netflix.

Following the success of “The Raw Recap Show,” WWE will introduce an instant-reaction podcast with Morant and Roberts after every Premium Live Event, starting with WrestleMania 41. In these shows, Fanatics will be prominently featured and listeners will also benefit from insights drawn from Fanatics’ extensive athletic network.

Morant and Roberts are seasoned hosts, having previously teamed up on various WWE productions such as “The Bump,” “SmackDown LowDown,” and “Raw Talk” on Peacock. Their chemistry promises to bring fans engaging and dynamic discussions in both of their new podcasts, which will be accessible across all podcast platforms and on WWE’s YouTube channel. More shows featuring WWE “Superstars and Legends” are also in the pipeline, to be revealed soon.

Fanatics solidified its role as WWE’s exclusive global e-commerce partner in 2022, evolving the partnership to encompass merchandise operations during major events like WrestleMania and the Royal Rumble. In 2023, Fanatics Events collaborated with WWE to present the inaugural “WWE World” in Philadelphia, while both brands are gearing up for an exciting five-day festival in Las Vegas around WrestleMania 41 in April.

The collaboration between WWE and Fanatics marks a significant leap forward in entertaining wrestling fans with engaging podcast content. The new podcasts, including “The Raw Recap Show,” not only enhance the viewing experience but also bridge fans to their favorite Superstars and the rich merchandising landscape of WWE. As both brands continue to expand their partnership, the future promises exciting audio experiences for wrestling enthusiasts.
