ESPN and WWE partnered together earlier this year. It appears that ESPN is reportedly happy with this deal.WWE announced a new deal with ESPN earlier this year that will see the latter's new streaming service be the home of all the company's premium live events. This meant that WrestleMania, Survivor Series, Royal Rumble, etc., will be streamed on ESPN. Wrestlepalooza was the first PLE to be streamed on the platform. However, ESPN raised eyebrows when it gave Wrestlepalooza an overall "C" grade. Many speculated at the time that the sports media giant might be unhappy with the Stamford-based promotion.This was further amplified when Freddie Prinze Jr. recently stated on his Wrestling with Freddie podcast that ESPN was unhappy with the deal.“ESPN, by the way, so unhappy with the deal. I was talking to a friend of mine who works for Disney, and he was just like, ‘Yo, they better make their money back on this deal.’ He just said, ‘They’re hot.’” [H/T Fightful Select]According to recent reports from Fightful Select, a source within ESPN said they have not heard anything about this and are happy working with the Triple H-led company. A higher-up in the sports entertainment juggernaut also said that they weren't aware of Freddie Prinze's role in wrestling.ESPN came under fire for the WWE deal recentlyShortly after WWE's deal with ESPN took effect, it came under scrutiny by fans and critics.
