On January 6, 2025, Monday Night Raw will officially move to Netflix, ending the show’s thirty plus year run on traditional cable television. This has led to some speculation about how some of the changes will be handled and now Netflix has answered some of those questions from fans. Here are some of the questions and answers, courtesy of 411mania.com:
Can I watch WWE on my Netflix plan, or is it an additional cost?
All live events on Netflix are included in all plans — including select WWE programming, depending on your region.
Where can I watch WWE Raw?
Beginning on Jan. 6, 2025, Netflix will be the exclusive home of WWE Raw in the United States and territories including American Samoa, Guam, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Mariana Islands, Palau, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands.
Members in the following countries can also watch WWE Raw on Jan. 6, 2025:
Argentina, Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Ecuador, Egypt, Finland, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Hungary, Indonesia, Israel, Kuwait, Malaysia, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine, United Kingdom
Additional countries will be added over time, and all countries listed above (outside the United States) will be able to watch SmackDown, NXT, WWE premium live events and select archival programming.
Can I watch SmackDown, NXT, and WWE premium live events on Netflix?
Netflix members in the United States will not be able to watch SmackDown, NXT, and WWE premium live events. Members in select countries listed above will be able to watch SmackDown and NXT weekly with their Netflix subscriptions, as well as premium live events like WrestleMania, SummerSlam and Royal Rumble, with more countries added in 2026 and beyond. Premium live events are also included with your Netflix subscription when available.
What WWE archival content will be available on service?
In January 2025, Netflix will begin to roll out select WWE archival content on service. WWE Raw archival content will be available for viewing in the United States, with additional archival content available in the countries listed above.
How soon after live airing will episodes be available on Netflix?
Episodes will be available to watch immediately after the live stream. If watching live isn’t supported on your device, these events are available a few days later for you to watch anytime, like other titles.
Can WWE content be downloaded for offline viewing on Netflix?
WWE programming can be downloaded roughly 48 hours after it streams on Netflix.
It’s going to be a big move. Check out what has been happening on Monday Night Raw:
Opinion: This is the kind of information that does clear things up a bit. It makes me hopeful that the Monday Night Raw archive, or at least parts of it, will be available. Having it leave Peacock will not be good but maybe we are going to be seeing at least some parts of it coming back up sooner than later. The move to Netflix could be quite the upgrade, but the details are what matter most.
