Is.....is it April Fool's Day? I feel like this is April Fool's news. But seriously, I have Peacock as part of my cable package. So finally, I can get the WWE Network and it's (essentially) for free.

Feel like WWE's benefitting from this a lot more than Peacock is. Guarantee they're getting a hell of a check for that and the Network's been falling off for awhile anyway, but I doubt that Peacock will really benefit much from it comparatively speaking, especially since it isn't available on the Firestick still.

WWE Network: It's like Netflix, but deader.

So for current subscribers to WWE but not to Peacock how is this going to work? Existing customers of the WWE Network in the U.S. will be migrated over to the Peacock Premium tier, where they will be charged $4.99 per month as opposed to the current subscription price for the WWE Network of $9.99.

Do we as subscribers have to do anything from our side or will the only change be that instead of 9.99, it will only be 4.99 from then on? Or is it still too early to tell how this will go down?

So that’s in the US but what does that mean for those of us not in the US ? Peacock isn’t available in Ireland and I don’t think there’s any plans to do it.
edit: nothing it seems.

Well maybe the content with have fewer music edits because it is run by a professional company and not a cheep man like McMahon. They have the first 5 seasons of Saturday Night Live unedited for goodness sake, they have the DeBarge episode of Punky Brewster, so maybe we can get "Don't Go Messing With A Country Boy". If we can't get that, but we have Bob Dylan on SNL, what is wrong with his picture.

For those that have Peacock, how frequent are the ads at the lower rate? Is it once halfway through a stream or do they chop up the show every 5 minutes?

Okay, with NBC running Peacock, does that mean the Smackdown episodes are out, at least the ones from Fox?
