Even though WWE is moving its PLEs to ESPN later this year, the company isn’t severing its relationship with Peacock.
According to a new report from Sports Business Journal, Peacock and WWE have reached a new, multi-year deal that will see WWE airing four Saturday Night Main Event programs annually on the platform.
As a result of the deal, Peacock will be the home of a newly announced SNME on November 1, 2025, and December 13. The December show is referred to in the report as John Cena‘s final match in WWE. Should that be true, this gives Peacock one of the biggest shows of the year.
WWE’s library of programming will also remain on Peacock through the end of the year. NXT premium live events will also stay on the platform through March 2026. The news comes following WWE’s official announcement that it had partnered with ESPN for a new, multi-year deal.
WWE and ESPN’s deal will see all WWE PLEs air on ESPN’s app for the next five years. As for the future of WWE’s archived content, that remains up in the air. ESPN is reportedly interested in it, but no official news has been announced.
