    Default Netflix + RAW

    10 year, $5 billion deal for Netflix and WWE RAW. This is a big deal because it's a live weekly sporting program. The NFL has done their one off Amazon games but never anything like this.

    WWE has announced this morning that "WWE Raw" — the promotion's weekly flagship show — will move to Netflix in January 2025. The new long-term partnership will see the red brand show initially broadcast on the streaming platform in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and Latin America. More countries will be added in the future. Additionally, Netflix will become the home of all weekly WWE shows, including premium live events such as WrestleMania, for international fans.

    The WWE-Netflix deal is reportedly worth $5 billion over ten years. It means that WWE, which is part of TKO Group Holdings, will earn $500 million a year from the new media rights agreement. "Raw's" current deal with USA Network, which will expire in October, is said to be worth up to $260 million per year. Meanwhile, the new partnership with Netflix will see "Raw" leave linear television for the first time since the show began airing in 1993.

    I haven't had Netflix in about a year and it's been a long time since I watched some Wrasslin' but that is pretty cool. Gone are the days when you couldn't even watch RAW in Canada because it was bumped for the Westminster Dog Show.

    They need a 10-part, tell-all documentary from the Hulk Hogan/Ric Flair era. That would be amazing.

    What does this mean to the WWE Network?

    and since the WWE is owned by the same company that owns the UFC... is the UFC coming to netflix? I can see a whole slew of documentaries already in the works at a min. for both WWE & UFC. Inside training camps. On the road with Seth Rollins...
