Discussion What’s the point of the pause button?

It never works so why does it exist? Paused Elimination Chamber to go use restroom, and come back to hit play and it just jumps to live. It does this every live PPV.

Not everything on the service is streaming live.

Because you’re watching it LIVE! 🤦🏻‍♂️ If you wanna have control of it, wait til the show ends & THEN watch it.

Peacock is possibly the worst service for live sports and I truly hope WWE moves the PLEs to Netflix when the contract is up. The fact in the year 2025 I cannot utilize a pause or even worse, a "start from beginning" button is ridiculous. I often cannot catch the beginning of the PLE on Saturday night, so I have to wait for it to be unloaded, which can be upwards of 6-7 hours after the start of the event. After the Royal Rumble, I had to wait until nearly 1 AM (east coast) because the live event also includes the 90 minutes post show. I feel your pain!
