WWE Backstage was a weekly show that debuted on FOX after WWE SmackDown was moved over to their Network back in October 2019. Backstage was a huge hit for a number of months, especially since CM Punk made his return to the wrestling business as a commentator for the show just a few weeks after its debut.
Despite the inclusion of the former World Champion as part of the show, the viewers were not coming in and the show hit a number of lows for a few straight weeks so FOX decided to pull the plug.

It would be interesting to see if WWE decided to equalize on this and move WWE Backstage to the WWE Network. The new tiered system allows the company to make some changes to their current layout and WWE Backstage on the Network would definitely bring in some viewers on days that there's no wrestling.
The Undertaker's recent documentary proved that the WWE Network can get decent audience figures so this could be beneficial for the company in the long run.
