I’ve loved WWE for 25 years, and there’s no better time to start watching thanks to Netflix

  • WWE’s headline weekly show, 'Monday Night Raw', is live on Netflix worldwide making now the perfect time to dust off your wrestling boots and get back into the action.
  • WWE was hotter than ever before selling out arenas all around the United States until late 90s/early 00s where now WWE is now setting record gates in stadiums across the globe and has never been more popular.
  • Wrestling is indeed pre-determined, but the result of a match being decided beforehand shouldn’t be a reason to dismiss or avoid giving WWE a chance.
  • In the UK and the rest of the world, Netflix doesn’t only show Raw on a Monday, but also WWE’s Friday night show, SmackDown.
  • The journey to Wrestlemania began this weekend with one of the best PLEs we’ve seen in years.
  • Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, and Rhea Ripley, to name a few are pioneering something special on live TV and it’s not only culturally acceptable to say you watch wrestling, it’s almost cool again.
  • For the rest of the world, like the UK and Australia, the full WWE catalog is available on Netflix.
  • Not only can you watch shows live, but there’s a full selection of previous shows dating back to the 80s.
  • The next big WWE PLE is Elimination Chamber that will be streamed live on Netflix worldwide and Peacock in the US on March 1st.
  • Give WWE Raw a try on Netflix and you’ll be hooked in no time if you appreciate great stories and incredible action.
