January 1st 2025.
Wrestling fans, get ready to rumble because WWE action is making its way onto Netflix! This marks a major milestone for the wrestling giant as it enters a new era with the streaming platform. After 31 years of dominating traditional television, Monday Night Raw has now found a new home on Netflix, along with other big shows like SmackDown and NXT.
For Netflix, this move into live streaming is a big step, especially after the success of the Mike Tyson versus Jake Paul fight in November. And for fans, this means a significant change in the way we consume wrestling content. With a decade of the WWE Network and five years of BT Sports and TNT Sport, things are definitely going to look very different from now on.
But when exactly is WWE making its move to Netflix? Well, for fans in the UK, you can start streaming WWE content on New Year's Day. And for those eagerly anticipating the weekly live episodes of Raw, SmackDown, and NXT, mark your calendar for the January 6th episode of Raw.
So, what can we expect to see on Netflix? Currently, there are a limited number of historic premium live events available on demand, but the streaming platform has promised more content in the future. In fact, they have teased that in January 2025, they will start rolling out select WWE archival content on their service.
And it's not just the regular shows and events that will be available. Netflix has also announced plans for spin-off shows, including a behind-the-scenes series. CEO Bela Bejaria has even hinted at the possibility of documentaries and scripted shows featuring our favorite WWE characters.
For those wondering about the subscription tiers, don't worry. All live events on Netflix are included in all plans, along with select WWE programming depending on your region. And for fans in the UK, this also means saying goodbye to the WWE Network as it officially shuts down on New Year's Eve.
But don't worry, there's still plenty of exciting content to look forward to on Netflix. The first episode of Raw on the streaming platform is already shaping up to be an epic one. Along with the final of the Women's Intercontinental Title tournament, we will also see CM Punk take on Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns battle it out with Solo Sikoa to determine the true Tribal Chief. Plus, Travis Scott will be performing live at the event with his new music serving as the revamped theme tune.
And it's not just the current roster that will be featured. WWE legend John Cena, along with surprise guests, will also be making appearances. So, mark your calendars and get ready for an action-packed debut.
