WWE WrestleMania weekend has arrived! The network & Peacock programming has been at a virtual stand-still for several weeks, with some weekends offering as little as four or five full-length programs, half of which aired elsewhere recently. Thankfully, a wealth of content is flooding both platforms this week.

Monday was stacked with nine episodes of WWF Superstars from 1996, a new WWE 24, and RAW Talk. Tuesday featured an archived episode of NXT and a new edition of The Best of WWE.

Wednesday featured the usual archived episode of Monday Night RAW and The Bump featuring The Miz, Maryse, & Johnny Gargano. Lastly, a new episode of This Week in WWE was added on Thursday.

The momentum will continue this weekend with an incredible number of new shows. In total, 16 full-length programs are set to be added on-demand and stream, including WWE WrestleMania 39, the Hall of Fame, NXT Level Up, & more. What shows will be available?

Below are 16 shows coming to WWE Network and Peacock this weekend.
