How Netflix Will Handle the WWE RAW Archives

With WWE’s historic move to Netflix starting January 6, 2025, fans can expect a gradual rollout of WWE’s extensive RAW archives alongside live-streamed episodes, revolutionizing access to wrestling content.

Netflix to Roll Out Select WWE Archival Content

As part of its 10-year, $5 billion partnership with WWE, Netflix will begin offering select archival content from Monday Night RAW starting in January 2025. While the full archive won’t be available immediately, the rollout will give fans access to iconic episodes and moments in WWE history.

Netflix’s official announcement confirmed that the U.S. audience will have access to WWE RAW archives, while additional archival material will become available in other regions. The gradual release ensures a steady stream of content for fans worldwide.

New Features for Wrestling Fans

Netflix is enhancing the WWE viewing experience with new features:

  • Downloadable Episodes: Fans can download episodes roughly 48 hours after they stream live, allowing convenient offline viewing.
  • Live-Streaming Advantage: Netflix’s live-streaming capabilities will eliminate the need for pre-taped episodes in international markets, ensuring real-time access for global audiences.

Impact of WWE’s Move to Netflix

This collaboration signifies a major shift in WWE’s content delivery strategy. With the full RAW archive eventually accessible, fans can relive legendary moments and explore WWE’s rich history. Additionally, new episodes of Monday Night RAW will be available live on Netflix every week, making it easier than ever for viewers to stay up-to-date.

Expanding WWE’s Global Reach

The move to Netflix is expected to attract new subscribers and introduce WWE to a broader audience. By leveraging Netflix’s global platform, WWE aims to expand its fanbase while providing long-time fans with unprecedented access to its content.

As the January 6, 2025, premiere approaches, fans eagerly anticipate how this partnership will redefine the WWE experience.
