WWE NXT Heatwave goes live on Peacock in the U.S. and Netflix elsewhere today (Sun., Aug. 24, 2025) at 7 pm ET from the Lowell Memorial Auditorium in Lowell, Massachusetts, but the promotion is also offering a free live stream of its Kickoff Countdown show starting an hour beforehand, and you can watch it right here!
You’ll get all the usual highlight packages to get you up to speed on all the feuds and angles heading into Heatwave. A panel of experts will break down each of the show’s six matches
— three of which are for titles — before the special event goes live. There isn’t currently a match set for this Countdown!
It starts at 6 pm ET. We hope you’ll join us here for the live stream you see above!
We’ve got a preview of & staff predictions for each match here. And of course, complete results and live match coverage of the entire Heatwave event can be found by clicking here.
