Power Slap not returning to TBS, to air on Rumble streaming service

[Chris]

Power Slap will not be continuing on TBS.

The upstart and controversial new league, co-founded by UFC president Dana White, will instead head to video streaming service Rumble for its second and third seasons of Road to the Title.

The deal is for two years, but terms were not disclosed. It's unknown if TBS or Warner Bros. Discovery made the decision to not renew it or if White and his partners made the decision themselves.

Rumble aired the company's first live event this past weekend, originally scheduled to be a traditional pay-per-view.

In an announcement, White said that in addition to the next two seasons of Road to the Title, Power Slap will air eight more live events over the next two years on the conservative-leaning YouTube alternative.

White also told Pat McAfee that he is attempting to have the second season filmed in Abu Dhabi.

The reality show, built using the same playbook as the groundbreaking The Ultimate Fighter, debuted on TBS in February, delayed by a week following the public controversy surrounding White and his wife exchanging slaps on New Year's Eve in a domestic dispute at a nightclub.
