This year’s Super Bowl airs on NBC and Peacock. Recent commercials for Peacock have highlighted WWE programming, but the report is unclear as to whether or not the ads on Sunday will be dedicated WWE WrestleMania commercials, or simply ads for the Peacock streaming service.
WWE’s most famous Super Bowl ad aired in 1999, but the company also aired a commercial during the 2000 Super Bowl.
WrestleMania 38 takes place on Saturday, April 2 and Sunday, April 3 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Super Bowl LVI kicks off at 6:30 p.m. Eastern time on Sunday, February 13. The game will feature the Los Angeles Rams and the Cincinnati Bengals, and will be held at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. SoFi Stadium is also scheduled to host WrestleMania 39 in 2023.
