Worth knowing

ESPN+ has over 25 million subscribers as of recent reports, dwarfing DAZN Wrestling's niche audience.
DAZN as a broader platform has invested heavily in boxing and MMA globally, though its wrestling vertical remains a smaller slice.
ESPN+ is the exclusive US streaming home of UFC events — a massive draw for combat sports fans.
DAZN Wrestling caters specifically to fans who want classic and current wrestling content without sorting through baseball box scores.
The Disney Bundle (ESPN+, Hulu, Disney+) runs ~$14.99/month, making ESPN+ a ridiculous value if you'd subscribe to any of those anyway.

ESPN+ technically airs more combat sports than DAZN Wrestling — the channel literally named after a wrestling genre gets out-punched by a general sports app wearing a mouse-ears hat.
