Mon Jan 06 11:19:20 UTC 2025: ## WWE Makes History: Monday Night Raw Moves Exclusively to Netflix
**Inglewood, CA** – In a groundbreaking move for the wrestling world, WWE’s flagship show, Monday Night Raw, will stream exclusively on Netflix starting January 6th, marking the first time in its history that the program will not air on traditional television. This monumental shift comes as part of a landmark 10-year, $5 billion deal between WWE and Netflix.
The premiere episode, airing at 8 p.m. EST, will be a Pay-Per-View (PLE)-style event held at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California, featuring a star-studded lineup. Fans can expect appearances from top WWE superstars including John Cena (who will also kick off his farewell tour), Roman Reigns, Bianca Belair, Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, and Seth Rollins. Adding to the excitement, special guests Logan Paul and rapper Travis Scott are also slated to appear.
Netflix will hold exclusive streaming rights to Raw in the US, Canada, UK, and Latin America, with global availability also planned. Beyond Raw, the streaming giant will also offer major WWE events like WrestleMania, SummerSlam, and the Royal Rumble to viewers outside the US.
This bold move has been lauded by WWE wrestlers and industry experts alike. The shift to an OTT platform represents a significant change for the wrestling industry, and signals a major step forward in WWE’s global reach. John Cena’s farewell tour, culminating in his retirement in 2025, adds another layer of intrigue to this historic moment.
