When is the next PLE in the WWE schedule?
The WWE schedule will take the promotion back to Peacock on Sept. 2 when the company offers up the 2023 edition of their yearly Payback event.
Following a massive Summerslam card in August, this year’s WWE Payback has a tough act to follow. However, the event has some intriguing matchups, including a main event that will see Japanese legend Shinsuke Nakamura finally get another crack at a world title when he takes on Seth Rollins for his heavyweight belt.

Below you can find a rundown of the card, predictions, and how to watch the event.

How many WWE pay per views in a year?
While the WWE schedule features premium live events on Peacock instead of pay-per-views in the United States, the amount is pretty much the same as it has been for years. The company often produces one major event each month but there is occasionally a double dip into PLEs. Nevertheless, the WWE has 12 major events, at the least, each year.
What days of the week does WWE air?
WWE produces a massive amount of content that can be found on YouTube and on their social media accounts. However, their flagship weekly product airs on Mondays (Monday Night Raw), and on Fridays (Smackdown Live).
For years their PPV events were on Sundays, but in the last few years, things have switched to Peacock PLEs now airing on Saturday evenings.
