WWE/Peacock
For a number of years, various independent wrestling promotions have partnered up with WWE to air their content on the WWE Network and later Peacock.
Companies such as ICW, EVOLVE, wXw and Progress have had shows be uploaded to the Network in recent years.
Well, it appears as though the days of these promotions airing on the Network are short lived.
A fan noticed that Insane Championship Wrestling (ICW) content was set to expire in 2 days, meaning it would then leave Peacock.
Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful then replied, saying that a source within WWE had indicated to them that they will be discontinuing independent wrestling content on the Network.
A reason was not given as to why the content would be being removed from the Network, but it obviously comes at a very interesting time in the company, as they gear up for a potential sale.
Comcast, the owners of Peacock, are one of the reportedly interested buyers of WWE.
