With the recent merger of WWE Network and Peacock, wrestling fans are now required to transition from the former platform to the latter. This article will guide you through the process of transferring your WWE Network subscription to Peacock, so you can continue to enjoy your favorite wrestling content without any interruptions.
To begin, it’s important to note that WWE Network content will only be available on Peacock in the United States. If you’re in another country, you’ll continue to use your WWE Network account as usual.
Assuming you’re in the United States, the first step to switch over is to sign up for Peacock if you haven’t already. You can do this by visiting the Peacock website or downloading the Peacock app on your preferred device. The good news is that the transition comes with a significant cost reduction. While WWE Network charged $9.99/month for access, the same content on Peacock costs just $4.99/month, or $9.99/month for an ad-free experience.
Once you’ve signed up for Peacock, you’ll need to cancel your WWE Network subscription to avoid double billing. The process is straightforward: log into your WWE Network account, click on ‘Account Settings,’ then select ‘Cancel Subscription.’ Don’t worry about losing access immediately – you’ll still be able to use WWE Network until your billing cycle ends.
Now, let’s explore how to find your favorite WWE content on Peacock. After logging into your Peacock account, go to the ‘Channels’ tab and select ‘WWE.’ Here, you’ll find a vast selection of WWE content, including past and present pay-per-views, WWE Network series, documentaries, and more.
One key difference to note is that not all WWE Network content is currently available on Peacock. The platform is gradually adding more content, with a plan to have most of the WWE Network library available by SummerSlam 2021. So, if you’re looking for a specific event or series and can’t find it yet, don’t fret. Chances are it will be added soon.
The process of transferring from WWE Network to Peacock is as simple as that. Sign up for Peacock, cancel your WWE Network subscription, and then explore the WWE content on Peacock. Remember, you’ll need to reestablish any preferences you had on WWE Network, such as preferred shows or stars, as these won’t automatically transfer over.
As with any new platform, it might take a little time to get used to navigating Peacock. But with its lower cost and the promise of non-wrestling content such as popular TV shows, movies, and original programming, it’s certainly worth the effort.
This exciting merger is set to create a more comprehensive and cost-effective viewing experience for WWE fans. While the transfer might seem daunting, these steps should help make the process as smooth as possible. After all, the only thing you should be wrestling with is who’s going to win the next match!
