WWE won’t wait until 2026 to kick off its ESPN partnership. Beginning next month, Premium Live Events will move to ESPN’s streaming service, starting with Wrestlepalooza on September 20 in Indianapolis. The move makes ESPN the exclusive home for WWE PLEs going forward, with Crown Jewel and Survivor Series also streaming this year.
The shift ends WWE’s five-year run on Peacock, though NXT events will remain on the NBCUniversal platform. WWE reportedly met its Peacock quota early by making WrestleMania and SummerSlam two-night shows, paving the way for the ESPN move. A new agreement will keep fresh WWE content on Peacock as well.
