Peacock will be the new home of WWE content starting in March, giving the streaming service a huge vault of new content and WWE fans access to all of the streaming service's current lineup of content, which includes a plethora of classic shows, movies, and original content. WWE Network's current subscriber base of 1.2 million will be migrated over to Peacock Premium, but a new FAQ regarding the move indicates that the migration over to Peacock from WWE Network might not be an automatic thing. One of the questions revolves around current WWE Network subscribers and what they should do, and it reveals that an email is coming that should have specific directions on when and how to sign up for Peacock (via Brandon Thurston)

It looks like you'll have to follow a step or two to get everything to sync up account-wise, and hopefully, that will include instructions for those who already have active Peacock and WWE Network accounts as well. You can check out that part of the FAQ below.

"I am currently a WWE Network subscriber? What should I do?
Starting in April, Peacock will be the exclusive streaming home of WWE Network. Until then, you can keep watching directly on WWE Network, as long as you have an active subscription. You can also create a Peacock account to stream WWE Network on Peacock beginning March 18.

Note: WrestleMania on April 10 and 11 will only be available to stream on Peacock.

Be on the lookout for an email with more specific directions on when and how to sign up for Peacock."
