Real American Freestyle is covering more territory on the FOX Nation service.
Promotional officials confirmed to MMA Fighting that the promotion’s new Next Gen events will stream exclusively on the platform, with the first match card taking place July 19 in Milwaukee following RAF 11.
“RAF is growing so fast because every decision we make is centered around one goal: giving
the entire wrestling community the exposure it deserves,” RAF co-founder Chad Bronstein said.
“We’re building a complete platform for the sport – from Olympic champions and
global stars all the way down to the next generation coming up behind them. This continued
commitment from FOX Nation in less than a year says a lot about the momentum behind this
and how strongly they believe in where we’re headed.”
The Next Gen series focuses on youth wrestlers getting the opportunity to compete on a larger platform in front of their idols. It’s expected that RAF Next Gen will have 14 live events on the streaming network.
Additionally, RAF is launching a new program on the platform called UNDISCOVERED: The Search For The Next RAF Superstar. The reality show gives aspiring wrestlers the chance to be signed to the RAF roster with an audition process, competition, and storytelling.
RAF returns to action this Saturday with RAF 9 in Dallas headlined by Gable Steveson vs. Alexandr Romanov.
