Netflix alters WWE Raw to celebrate 'fresh start'
Netflix has just announced a major change for the popular wrestling show, WWE Monday Night Raw. In preparation for their move to the streaming platform in January 2025, the company has unveiled a brand new logo to kickstart what they are calling a "new era". This exciting deal, worth a whopping $5 billion, will see Raw broadcasted on Netflix all around the world, starting from January 6.

With only three weeks left until the highly anticipated first show on Netflix, fans have been given a sneak peek at the new look of the show. The official Netflix pages shared the new logo, along with the caption "New era. New logo. WWE RAW is coming to Netflix LIVE starting January 6!" This bold and fresh design, featuring the Raw name in all capitals with a modern font and red slopes at the top and bottom, was also revealed by WWE boss Paul "Triple H" Levesque in a social media video. In his words, "A logo is an identity, it tells you everything you need to know without saying anything at all. It's real, rebellious, raw. Welcome to Raw on Netflix."

Although fans will have to wait a little longer to see the new logo in action on the show, the response so far has been overwhelmingly positive. Twitter user @KCE1967 expressed their excitement, stating "This is a huge improvement imo, not that the other one was bad." Others, like @Kryptonian_dude and @narcolepsyboy94, also shared their enthusiasm for the sleek new design.

But the logo isn't the only thing to look forward to in the first episode of Raw on Netflix. WWE has big plans to make a splash with their debut, with the main event already confirmed to be a Tribal Combat match between Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa. There are also rumors of a major grudge match between Seth Rollins and CM Punk, as well as the finals of the Women's Intercontinental Title tournament. Plus, fans can expect a special appearance from hip-hop artist Travis Scott, as his music will now serve as the show's new theme tune.

For UK fans, the switch to Netflix will be effective from New Year's Day, with the first episode airing on January 6. This includes not only weekly live episodes of Raw, SmackDown, and NXT, but also all the major Pay-Per-View events like WrestleMania, Royal Rumble, and SummerSlam. In addition, Netflix and WWE have confirmed that select programming and historic events will also be available, although the full details have yet to be announced. And according to Netflix's chief content officer, Bela Bejaria, they are excited to explore the potential of documentaries and scripted shows featuring the rich history and beloved characters of WWE.
