Peacock reported that it now has 22 million paid users, an increase of 2M over the 20 million it reported having at the end of the fourth quarter of 2022, representing a 60% increase year-over-year. Despite the gains, that number keeps Peacock well behind the biggest players in the streaming industry; Netflix most recently reported having 232.5 million global users, and Disney+ claims 161.8 million worldwide customers.
When stacked against more modestly-sized streaming services Peacock’s success looks better. It is still well ahead of AMC, who last reported having 11.8 million streaming customers spread across its numerous services. Starz now has 37.2M global users, but its most recent earnings report indicated it had lost around 600,000 subscribers.

Until the pandemic, Lil Yachty never stopped to think about how quickly he became famous. “It was a full year from walking across the stage in high school to then I’m in this penthouse in midtown Atlanta, I got this G-wagon, put my mother in a house,” Yachty explains. “It’s a fast life. You not ever getting the chance to think about a lot of shit.”
Yachty’s 2016 hit “Minnesota,” which had the treacly energy of a nursery rhyme, earned the then-17-year-old the title “King of the Teens.

It was announced at Tuesday’s Smackdown tapings that Carlos Colon will be the next inductee in the WWE Hall of Fame. Colon is the father of former WWE Superstar Carlito, current WWE Superstar Diego (formerly Primo) and uncle of Fernando (formerly Epico). It’s expected that his two sons and his nephew will present him at the Hall of Fame ceremony. Will they be dressed as Los Matadores? Probably not.
Carlos Colon is a Puerto Rican wrestling legend that had a very successful in-ring career wrestling all over the world and as a promoter for World Wrestling Council in Puerto Rico. Even though he didn’t wrestle that many matches in WWE (he was in the 1993 Royal Rumble), he made an impact in the wrestling world through his work in Puerto Rico and it’s wonderful that WWE is choosing to acknowledge that at this year’s Hall of Fame ceremony.
