We are in a new, interesting era for Netflix in that it is pursuing more and more live content like traditional TV. Easily the biggest investment in this era is a decade-long partnership with the WWE where Netflix paid reportedly $5 billion for the broadcast rights of Monday Night RAW, the brand’s highest profile live program.
WWE RAW will premiere exclusively on Netflix starting January 6, 2025, marking a major transition from cable to streaming. This strategic move aims to adapt to cord-cutting trends, allowing access to a wider audience.
The standard monthly subscription without advertisements will climb from $15.49 to $17.99, and a standard monthly subscription with ads will increase one dollar to $7.99, Netflix said.
Here is all the professional wresting news you need to know, including the Undertaker commenting on his moment with Rhea Ripley on Raw's Netflix debut.
