WWE Network officially closed and moved to Peacock this weekend. Just tried to log in on my PC and roku to check the network said it has moved to peacock. Did get an email today that said

Dear David,

Beginning tomorrow, WWE Network will be exclusively available on Peacock in the U.S. and its territories. As a result, your current WWE Network subscription expires today, and you will receive a prorated refund to your existing payment method for your remaining balance.

To watch WrestleMania live on April 10 & 11 - you’ll need to sign up for Peacock Premium.

With Peacock Premium, you’ll be able to stream every live WWE pay-per-view event and your favorite WWE shows. Plus, you’ll also get access to tons of movies, hit series, exclusive Originals, live sports, and much more – all on Peacock!

Also got an offer for a 4 month subscription to peacock premium for like $2.50 a month. so that's not too bad

If there are any Peacock premium deals let me know please.

Wrestlemania week starts now (well actually last night with the HoF ceremony)

NXT Takeover two nights, then Smackdown on Friday then Wrestlemania weekend. I'm guessing NXT won't have fans tonight and are still in the performance center?  I think tonight is on USA and tomorrow i on the Peacock/WWE network

NXT Stand and Deliver was really solid. Not really a bad match on either night. Some matches were ok, but most were great like Walter/Ciampa, Balor/Kross, O'Riley/Cole (although it did go on for like 40 minutes), the triple threat tag team for the titles and Io Shira/Gonzales.

Looking forward to Wrestlemania Night 1 tonight

My predictions:

Night 1

Drew McIntye over Bobby Lashley to win the WWE Championship

AJ Styles & Omos over The New Day to win the RAW tag team belts

Bianca Belair over Sasha Banks to win the women's Smackdown title

Damian Priest and Bad Bunny over The Miz and Johnny "Drip Drip" Morrison

Cesaro over Seth Rollins

Natalya and Tamina win the tag team turmoil (I know there are rumors of Bayley and Charlotte teaming up and entereing. Wouldn't mind them winning wither)

Shane O'Mac over Braun Strowman in the steel cage match (I don't really care about thhis match)

Night 2

Edge over Daniel Bryan and Roman Reigns to win the Universal Title (this is a toss up)

Big E over Apollo Crews (another toss up, I want Big E to win)

Riddle over Sheamus by DQ

Asuka over Rhea Ripley

The Fiend over Randy Orton

Kevin Owens over Sami Zayn (with the help of Logan Paul)

Nattie and Tamina over Shayna Bazler and Nia Jax for the womens tag team title (as long as they lose the belts I don't care, they're annoying af)

There's a storm

and a delay. Hopefully doesn't last too long (hearing about an hour). Great to see the fans back although I was kinda surprised they weren't more spread out. That's Florida for ya I suppose.

Only caught the last match between Sasha and Bianca but thought it was great.

Overall really good show. Only downfall was the women's tag team turmoil and the rain That was a clusterfuck. Mandy Rose fell/slipped and Dana Brooke had a wardrobe malfunction and a whole bunch of women were just randomly thrown together except for the Riott Squad.

Bad Bunny was surprisingly good. Possibly the best celebrity non-wrestler debut? Surprised they kept the belt on Lashley.  Can't wait for tonight.

Broken Skull Session with Jericho is on the peacock/wwe network now.

Pretty interesting and cool stories from Y2J.

eeriepadave

Well the second night was definitely interesting and kinda unexpected especially The Fiend/Orton match. Think I only got like 1 prediction right for night 2. Overall pretty solid, I think i like night 1 slightly better. Night 2 had some solid matches like the main event, Rhipley/Asuka, Riddle/Sheamus. Guessing RAW is going back to the Thunderdome tonight? Kinda a shame since usually night after Wrestlemania is pretty good.

Damn some big names released by the WWE. Gonna miss Mickie James. Was hoping she would get another title run. Maybe she'll get one at AEW? Peyton Royce and Billie Kay. Samoa Joe. Among others

Samoa Joe I was kinda Surprised about. I know he's "injury prone" but when he was healthy he was pretty awesome and also good on commentary. Also kinda upset they let go Bo Dallas (even though he hasn't wrestled in over a year). Was hoping they were gonna add him to the Fiend/Alexa Bliss stroyline. Maybe they are saving that for Alesiter Black who thankfully wasn't released.

Guessing Peyton goes to AEW when she can to be with her hubby Shawn Spears. Most likely Samoa Joe would go there too I suppose?

igotid88

Some thought Bo was the Fiend

igotid88

And Lana and Nia Jax are still there.

Abadon, keeping kayfabe alive. Actually not too much is known about her. Very few pics of her without makeup, she doesn't have a wikipedia page and can't even find her real name anywhere

These A&E documentaries have been terrific. Highest recommendation. The Roddy Piper and Shawn Michaels ones were particularly good. Macho Man and Booker T were too. Stone Cold's was okay but his was more of the typical WWE-style docs we've gotten forever. The others dive really deep (Shawn's over-the-top drug use, Booker T's childhood and arrest, etc.)

Don't have A&E, but want to watch them eventually.

Last night's PPV was pretty good. Only downfall which everyone criticized was the Damien Priest/Miz "Zombie Lumberjack match. I get they did it to promote Army of the Dead and it was different, I'll give 'em that, but kinda bad also.

He was simply awful. Come to think of it, he was awful at ESPN too.
