Will Peacock Have All WWE Content?

Will Peacock will offer all of WWE’s content? Here’s everything we know about the new streaming service.
Introduction
It’s been rumored for some time that WWE is considering transitioning all of its content to Peacock, NBCUniversal’s streaming service. That would mean that WWE Network, currently a standalone service, would become part of Peacock.
There are a few things to consider when thinking about this rumor. First, NBCUniversal owns WWE, so it would make sense for all of WWE’s content to be on one of NBCUniversal’s streaming services. Second, WWE Network has had some trouble retaining subscribers, so it might make sense for WWE to try to boost its numbers by moving it to a more popular platform like Peacock.
However, there are also some downsides to this rumored move. First, it’s unclear how much WWE content would actually be available on Peacock. Second, moving WWE Network to Peacock could actually result in fewer people subscribing to the service, as they might not want to pay for a subscription just to watch WWE content.
At this point, it’s pure speculation as to whether or not this rumored move will actually happen. We will have to wait and see what WWE decides to do in the future.
What is WWE?
WWE is an American professional wrestling promotion based in Stamford, Connecticut. The company is currently the largest professional wrestling promotion in the world, holding over 500 events a year, and broadcast to approximately 36 million viewers in more than 150 countries. WWE’s portfolio of businesses includes television programming, live events, merchandising, feature films, and digital media.
What is NBCUniversal?
NBCUniversal is an American media conglomerate that is a subsidiary of Comcast. The company is one of the world’s largest media and entertainment companies, with assets in film, television, and theme parks. NBCUniversal was formed in 2004 after the merger of General Electric’s NBC with Vivendi Universal’s entertainment assets.
What is Peacock?
Peacock is an upcoming American over-the-top streaming service owned by NBCUniversal. Peacock will launch on April 15, 2020. The service will be the exclusive home of WWE Network content, as well as other original programming.
What does this mean for WWE content?
Will Peacock will be the new home for all WWE content starting October 5th. This includes Raw, Smackdown, NXT, pay-per-views, and original programming such as WWE Backstage. The only content that will not be on Will Peacock is the live event streaming service, WWE Network.
What does this mean for the future of WWE?
This is a huge acquisition for Peacock, and it means that the platform will now be the exclusive home of all WWE content. This includes live events, on-demand content, and original programming. In addition, Peacock will also be the exclusive home of WWE Network, which is a streaming service that offers 24/7 programming of WWE content.
This is a major win for Peacock, as it further strengthens the platform’s position as a go-to destination for sports and entertainment content. It also sets up Peacock to be a major player in the world of professional wrestling, as WWE is one of the biggest entertainment properties in the world.
Conclusion
Based on the information that we have seen so far, it seems highly likely that Will Peacock will be the sole provider of WWE content going forward. Although nothing has been officially announced by WWE or Will Peacock himself, all signs seem to point to this being the case.
