Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: NJPW WORLD at 4.8 against WWE's 3.7. NJPW WORLD also leads on ads (none vs shown). WWE's advantage is review sentiment (47% vs 32%) and ratings volume (5.5K vs 706). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. WWE sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and NJPW WORLD sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
NJPW WORLD holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WWE has 5.5K ratings behind it against 706, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of WWE's written reviews are positive against 32% of NJPW WORLD's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
WWE ships an update every 6 weeks, NJPW WORLD every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
