SiriusXM is stepping into the ring with its first-ever 24/7 channel dedicated exclusively to professional wrestling. Pro Wrestling Nation 24/7 will officially debut on Channel 156 on July 1, delivering nonstop coverage of the global wrestling world for fans across SiriusXM radios and the SiriusXM app.

The new channel builds on the long-running success of Busted Open, SiriusXM's flagship wrestling program hosted by Dave LaGreca, along with wrestling legends Bully Ray, Mark Henry, and Tommy Dreamer. LaGreca, who founded the show in 2009, has signed a new multi-year agreement to remain the face of Busted Open and will anchor the new channel's daily lineup with a live show airing every day from 9am to noon ET.

"Pro Wrestling Nation 24/7 is a dream come true," said LaGreca. "I couldn't be more proud of the team that we have assembled on this channel. I promise our loyal fans, 'The Nation,' the best coverage of Pro Wrestling in the world!"

SiriusXM's SVP of Sports Programming Jared Fox praised LaGreca's contributions and said the expansion meets a growing demand for wrestling content. "We've seen the popularity of Busted Open grow... to the point where the show is bursting with great talent and content," said Fox. "We're really excited to expand on what he's started."

Fox added, "Pro Wrestling Nation 24/7 will be the next great SiriusXM sports channel, producing compelling and exclusive new content daily and giving fans a place to call in and let their voices be heard."
