Otherwise we wouldn\u2019t have done the deal. To have WrestleMania in particular \u2014 which is our Super Bowl \u2014 available [for no extra cost] on Peacock is quite different from other models you\u2019re seeing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Current U.S. subscribers to the WWE Network will be migrated over to Peacock Premium and pay 50% less for full access to the WWE Network and the content that comes with Peacock Premium at $4.99. That price point includes commercials. Peacock Premium Plus, the commercial free version of Peacock, will include WWE Network as well. The cost for that service is $9.99.<\/p>\n<p>WWE Network will still offer live PPV events at no additional cost within this model, including WrestleMania and Summerslam. The first event to live in the new world of WWE Network is WWE Fastlane on March 21st.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>CATCH-UP:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2021\/01\/20\/wwe-to-allow-fans-at-wrestlemania-37-w-heydorns-analysis\/\">WWE to allow fans at WrestleMania 37 (w\/ Heydorn\u2019s Analysis)<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-326262927\"><div id=\"pwtor-190391660\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>NBC&#8217;s Peacock platform will soon become the exclusive home for the WWE Network.
