Message: [QUOTE="Symphony Steve, post: 4168699, member: 911"] Here's (what I think to be) the story surrounding The Rock's appearance yesterday. I'm sure you saw all the ads for Peacock, including the Wrestlemania ad, which was actually an NBC/Peacock ad. Dave Meltzer, or maybe Andrew Zarian, said that NBC has given Peacock another $3 billion (!) to develop their own programs. There probably isn't a cheaper content-provider out there than WWE. As you know, the WWE Network was purchased by Peacock. In addition to that, the 2023 Wrestlemania is set at the site of yesterday's Super Bowl, and The Rock is penciled in for that show, schedule permitting. In other words, the Rock's appearance was an infomercial for Peacock, with WWE getting some of the rub--although that was [B]far [/B]from one of the Rock's stronger performances. [/QUOTE]
