Clash in Paris will be the last WWE PLE to air on Peacock before the ESPN era begins. The WWE-ESPN deal is reportedly worth $1.6 billion ($325 million per year for five years) and is only for main roster PLEs. In addition to airing on the new ESPN streaming service, some select PLEs in the future will also be simulcast on ESPN’s linear TV networks.
In a surprise announcement, WWE reveals that Wrestlepalooza will stream on ESPN, not Peacock. The move happens sooner than expected, setting up a head-to-head showdown with AEW's All Out on September 20.
