Real American Freestyle is staying on FOX Nation.<\/p>\n
The promotion announced on Thursday that RAF and Fox Nation have agreed to a long-term extension for the streaming service to remain the exclusive home for \u201call upcoming RAF matches.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis extension reflects the momentum we\u2019ve been building since the first event and the incredible partnership we\u2019ve developed,\u201d RAF CEO Chad Bronstein said. \u201cFOX Nation saw early on that there was an opportunity to give elite wrestling a true professional platform, and the audience response has continued to grow with each show.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cRAF is reaching core wrestling fans and pulling in new ones,\u201d RAF chief media officer Eric Bischoff adds. \u201cElite athletes, real stories, clear stakes, and crossover matchups that bring audiences together. FOX Nation understands how to grow long-term programming, and this extension gives us the space to keep developing RAF the right way.\u201d<\/p>\n
RAF just capped off their biggest event to date earlier this month with RAF 5, headlined by Colby Covington\u2019s tech fall victory over former UFC middleweight champion Luke Rockhold. Top UFC lightweight Arman Tsarukyan also earned a dominant win on the card.<\/p>\n
The promotion returns to action for RAF 6 on Feb. 28, headlined by a matchup between former two-division UFC champ Henry Cejudo and former WEC champ Urijah Faber.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Real American Freestyle is staying on FOX Nation.
