On January 6thဣ, WWE Raw wil♔l officially move to Netflix. It will mark the first time WWE Raw will be off linear television and on a streaming service.
Appearing on Sports Bussiness Journal's WWE Executive Vice President, Talent Relations & Head of Communications Chr♋is Legentil discussed the upcoming move.
"We couldn't be more excited. One of the things that maybe goes understated is, obviously in the States, Monday Night Raw moves to Netflix. Outside of the States, all WWE content moves to Netflix. That's Raw, NXT, SmackDown, Premium Live Events. That's all going to Netflix. We see that as transformational for the business," he said.
Legentil continued, "This year alone, we did half of our Premium Live Events outside of the US. Look for more of that when we're in partnership with Netflix because we're going to be working with them hand-in-hand to select locations across the world where we can grow our audiences and hopefully gain subscribers for them."
Asked what WWE has in store for 2025, Legentil replied, "We're going to nail this Netflix transition. In partnership with their team, who has been amazing. They're excited about this product, we're excited about this partnership. We think, together, we're going to be able to deliver for both subscribers and WWE fans."
