He said it. WWE has been on the USA Network for a very long time now, with a relationship that started all the way back in the 1980s. That does not mean it has all gone perfectly well though, as there have been more than a few issues over the years. It seemed that we might have had another one this week, though it turns out that it is not exactly as bad as it appeared.

This week’s Monday Night Raw featured a match between Bron Breakker and Ilja Dragunov. During the match, broadcaster Pat McAfee referred to Breakker as “a brick s***house.” According to Fightful Select, McAfee has no heat on him for the line, which drew some chuckles backstage. In addition, one person who was watching the show in the Gorilla Position said that they “can’t wait for Netflix”. Monday Night Raw is set to move to Netflix, which has less censoring issues, in January 2025.

It was a busy night. Check out the match and more of the show:

Opinion: I can see how this goes for WWE, as the line was little more than a simple statement which probably didn’t make a big difference to most of the people watching. It feels more like worrying about something that would have been a much bigger problem back in the day and thankfully McAfee is not in trouble after what he said. As was mentioned, this is not going to be an issue in just a few months and that should help somewhat.
