Peacock Adds REELZ Live Linear Feed, MLW Underground Won’t Stream Due To WWE Deal
REELZ is coming to Peacock, but MLW is not.
Hollywood Reporter reports that Peacock is adding a live linear stream of the REELZ channel beginning March 1. However, the feed will not live stream MLW Underground on Tuesdays at 10 p.m. ET due to Peacock’s deal with WWE.
WWE has exclusivity on Peacock. Peacock is the streaming home of WWE premium live events, select original programming, and the WWE archive along with a WWE live feed.
MLW inked a deal with REELZ in January 2023 to air MLW Underground on Tuesdays. WWE sold the WWE Network to Peacock in January 2021.
With the latest deal, Peaock now has live feeds for REELZ, Hallmark, WWE and local NBC stations.
Peacock subscribers will now be able to watch “On Patrol: Live” as part of the live REELZ stream and episodes will be on-demand the day after they air.
A judge recently dismissed MLW’s lawsuit against WWE, which claimed WWE attempted to undermine their competition by preventing MLW from finalizing multiple media distribution deals.
Fightful will provide more information on the deal as it is known.
