Grammy Award-winning founder of the Smashing Pumpkins Billy Corgan will star in an upcoming National Wrestling Alliance reality show on The CW.
As part of a new streaming rights deal between the NWA and The CW, a series about Corgan’s life, family, role as President of the NWA and his “day job” will debut on The CW later this year, NWA said, in apparent reference to the Smashing Pumpkins frontman’s music career.
The series is “unscripted” and “untitled.”
Announcing the deal, Corgan said multiple NWA programs will be streaming and on-demand via The CW platform and portal in the United States.
The action-packed wrestling programs are available free of charge and without a subscription via The CW app.
Flagship program “NWA Powerrr” is live on the platform now and features “Return to Robarts” programming. New episodes air weekly on Tuesdays with past seasons also available to stream.
Additionally, the much-anticipated Paranoia Live Event on Powerrr is also now available on The CW. The signature live event Paranoia features some of the league’s top stars and a myriad of thrilling high-octane matches.
Next up, the massive signature live event Hard Times 2024 will premiere on the platform as part of future episodes of “NWA Powerrr,” streaming on both CWTV.com and the CW app.
Regarding the alliance, Corgan commented, “The CW has made a big commitment to sports, and they have an incredible top-tier streaming platform. The network’s audience represents a very wide swath of American culture—which wrestling has always been a key part of. This partnership gives us the opportunity to reach that audience more readily.”
