Quick Answer: Fans can watch WWE online with Peacock. You can also catch some shows (Raw, NXT, and Smackdown) using a live TV streaming service.
With death-defying stunts, emotional storylines, and captivating characters, there’s a lot to love about World Wrestling Entertainment, a.k.a. WWE. The professional wrestling mega-brand reaches around a billion households every week (really) as fans tune in to see their heroes and their most-hated villains duke it out for glory.
Luckily, there’s plenty of WWE content to satiate every fan, with weekly events like Monday Night Raw and Friday Night Smackdown, newer events like Crown Jewel, as well as massive annual events like WrestleMania and SummerSlam. Better still, it’s now easier than ever to watch WWE without cable.
If you’re new to WWE — or trying to figure out how to watch wrestling online in the cord-cutting era — read on: here’s everything you need to know about how to watch WWE online.
How to Watch WWE Online Without Cable
Here are two of the best ways to watch WWE events this year:
1. Watch WWE on Peacock
If you’re wondering how to watch WWE online, Peacock is now the best place. Through the NBC streaming service, you’ll be able to watch WWE events online and on-demand — including weekly series and annual premium live events.
Peacock offers two subscription tiers: Premium and Premium Plus. Premium costs $5.99 a month and gets you both on-demand and live content, although you will see ads on both. Premium Plus costs $11.99 a month, but removes ads from on-demand content and gets you livestreams of your local NBC channel.
Peacock is available on Amazon Firestick, Roku, Apple TV, and similar streaming devices, to let you watch WWE on TV. You can also stream WWE on Peacock on your phone, computer, or tablet. Besides getting you WWE streams, a Peacock subscription lets you watch thousands of hours of content from popular movies and shows like The Office and Yellowstone.
2. Watch WWE on DirecTV Stream
A few of the major WWE shows still air on cable. Raw and NXT are shown on USA Network, and Smackdown is shown on Fox. If you want to watch these shows without cable, you can do so with DirecTV Stream. The popular live TV streaming service starts with a five-day free trial and then packages start at $79.99 a month.
Where to Watch Old WWE
Because WWE is more like a TV series than live sports, many fans are wondering where to watch old WWE.
Again, the answer is Peacock, where you can watch old WWE episodes from all series to relive highlights or re-visit your favorite wrestlers. Most of these old WWE shows are only available with a Peacock Premium subscription.
