WWE Raw‘s debut on Netflix will feature a major title match.
On January 23rd, news broke that Monday Night Raw would be leaving USA Network and moving to Netflix in 2025. Not only that, Netflix will be the home to the company’s premium live events internationally, marking huge changes for the WWE Network outside of the United States. In August, it was confirmed that Raw would officially debut on Netflix on January 6th, 2025.
The company has already begun hyping up the big move. Triple H recently shared behind the scenes footage to help promote the Netflix partnership, and it’s also been confirmed that John Cena will be a part of the January 6th Raw debut. Roman Reigns is set to wrestle a rare TV match for the occasion, and multiple WWE legends including The Rock are expected to be involved with the show.
