WWE is preparing for a potential shift in the streaming home of WWE NXT in the United States, as the current agreement with Peacock approaches its end. PWInsider reports indicate that NXT-related premium live events and archived programming can be removed from the platform in the coming days unless an extension is finalized.

The deal covering NXT premium live events on Peacock is expected to expire in April 2026. The final event under the current deal is believed to be NXT Stand & Deliver, which is scheduled for April 4 during WrestleMania weekend. If the existing contract ends as planned, it will close the chapter on a partnership that began when WWE Network content moved to Peacock in 2021.

Under WWE’s distribution strategy, most main-roster premium live events have already moved elsewhere. Last fall, WWE shifted those events to the ESPN Unlimited streaming tier in the United States as part of a new media agreement. That move left NXT as one of the remaining WWE properties still tied to Peacock for live special events.

Even if NXT premium events leave the platform, Peacock will continue carrying select WWE programming under a separate “multi-year partnership agreement” signed last August. That includes certain specials such as Saturday Night’s Main Event and archived documentary-style series like WWE Evil.

At the moment, WWE has not announced where NXT premium events or the brand’s full library might stream domestically once the Peacock arrangement ends. Internationally, however, WWE premium live events continue to stream through Netflix as part of a separate global rights agreement.
