According to PWInsider.com, WWE is preparing for a potential shift in the streaming home of its NXT brand in the U.S. The current agreement with the Peacock streaming platform is nearing its end, and NXT-related premium live events and archived programming will be removed from the platform in the coming days unless an extension is finalized.
The report also indicated that the deal covering NXT premium live events on Peacock is set to expire in April 2026. The last event under the current agreement is expected to be Stand & Deliver, scheduled for Saturday, April 4, during WrestleMania weekend. If the existing contract ends as anticipated, it will conclude a partnership that began when WWE Network content migrated to Peacock in 2021.
Furthermore, the report highlighted that under WWE’s distribution strategy, most main-roster premium live events have already been moved to a different platform. Last fall, WWE transitioned these events to the ESPN Unlimited streaming tier in the U.S. as part of a new media agreement. This shift has left NXT as one of the last WWE properties still associated with Peacock for live special events.
Even if NXT premium events depart from the platform, Peacock will still host select WWE programming under a separate multi-year partnership agreement signed last August. This includes certain specials, such as Saturday Night’s Main Event, and documentary-style series like WWE Evil.
Currently, WWE has not announced where NXT premium events or the brand’s full library will stream domestically once the Peacock arrangement concludes. However, on the international front, WWE premium live events continue to stream through Netflix as part of a separate global rights agreement.
