WrestlePalooza is not on Disney Plus
WrestlePalooza, WWE's premium live event, is not available through Disney Plus. WWE events stream on Peacock, NBCUniversal's streaming service, which holds the exclusive rights to WWE premium live events in the United States. If you have a Peacock subscription, you can watch WrestlePalooza there on the date it airs. If you do not have Peacock, you will need to sign up separately — your Disney Plus account does not give you access to Peacock content.
This separation exists because Disney Plus and Peacock are owned by different companies. Disney owns Disney Plus. NBCUniversal owns Peacock and also owns WWE. When WWE signed its streaming deal with Peacock in 2021, that contract gave Peacock the rights to show WWE's premium live events, not Disney Plus.
Key Takeaways
- WrestlePalooza streams on Peacock, not Disney Plus, because Peacock holds the exclusive U.S. rights to WWE premium live events.
- You need a separate Peacock subscription to watch — it does not come with Disney Plus.
- Peacock offers a free tier with ads and a paid tier without ads; both include access to WWE events.
- WWE also shows weekly programming like Raw and SmackDown on Peacock, along with older events from WWE's archive.
How to watch WWE events on Peacock
To watch WrestlePalooza or any other WWE premium live event, go to Peacock.com or open the Peacock app on your device. Create an account if you do not have one. Peacock offers a free tier supported by ads and a paid tier ($5.99 per month with ads, or $11.99 per month without ads). Both tiers include access to WWE premium live events.
Once you are logged in, search for WrestlePalooza or navigate to the WWE section. The event will be available to stream on the date it airs, usually in the evening. You can watch live or on demand after the event ends. Peacock works on phones, tablets, computers, smart TVs, and streaming devices like Roku and Apple TV.
What else WWE streams on Peacock
Beyond premium live events, Peacock carries WWE's weekly shows Raw and SmackDown, which air on cable television but are also available to stream the next day on Peacock. You can also watch older WWE events, documentaries, and behind-the-scenes content in Peacock's WWE library.
If you are interested in other wrestling promotions, Peacock does not carry AEW (All Elite Wrestling) or Impact Wrestling. Those promotions stream elsewhere — AEW streams on Max (formerly HBO Max) and TBS, and Impact streams on Peacock as well as other platforms depending on the show.
Why WWE events moved to Peacock
WWE signed a multi-year deal with Peacock in 2021 that made Peacock the home for all WWE premium live events in the United States. Before that, events were available through the WWE Network, a standalone streaming service WWE operated. When WWE was acquired by Endeavor (which also owns UFC), the company consolidated its streaming to Peacock as part of a larger strategy to build Peacock's sports content.
This means if you were used to watching WWE events on the WWE Network, that service no longer exists in the U.S. All WWE content has moved to Peacock. If you are outside the United States, WWE events may be available through different services depending on your country.
Peacock subscription options and costs
Peacock offers three tiers. The free tier includes ads and gives you access to WWE events, though you may see commercials during the stream. Peacock Premium ($5.99 per month) removes most ads but keeps some during live events. Peacock Premium Plus ($11.99 per month) removes ads entirely, even during live sports.
If you have a cable or internet provider that includes Peacock as a perk — some Comcast, Cox, and other providers do — you may have access to Peacock Premium at no extra cost. Check your provider's website or call customer service to see if Peacock is included in your plan.
Devices and compatibility
Peacock works on most devices: iPhones, Android phones, iPads, Android tablets, Mac and Windows computers, Apple TV, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Google TV, Samsung Smart TVs, and LG Smart TVs. If you are unsure whether your device is compatible, visit Peacock's help section or try downloading the app from your device's app store.
You can stream on one device at a time with the free tier. Peacock Premium and Premium Plus allow simultaneous streams on up to four devices, which is useful if multiple people in your household want to watch at the same time.
