WWE Speed is a professional wrestling program produced by WWE that debuted on April 3, 2024, on the social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter). The program features a unique format with all matches adhering to a three-minute time limit. The concept aims to cater to viewers with limited time by offering fast-paced, action-packed wrestling encounters. Each episode showcases established WWE superstars as well as rising talents, potentially creating new opportunities for wrestlers known for their high-flying abilities and quick maneuvers to shine.

History of WWE Speed

The concept for WWE Speed was originally tested back in December 2023, but after securing a partnership on February 8th, 2024, WWE announced that Speed would officially launch on April 3rd. It also added an extra layer of excitement – a tournament will run alongside the show, crowning the first-ever WWE Speed Champion.

Where to watch WWE Speed?

WWE Speed can be watched exclusively on the social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter). The show premiered on April 3, 2024, and is expected to be a recurring program. Since it's a new program, it's unclear yet whether WWE will offer the episodes on other platforms like their streaming service Peacock or their YouTube channel. However, for now, all you'll need is an X account to catch all the action of these fast-paced, three-minute wrestling matches.

List WWE Speed matches

The matches in WWE Speed will take place with a time limit of three minutes. These will not be live matches and will be pre-taped before the programming of Monday Night RAW or Friday Night SmackDown.
