WWE is set to begin airing Monday Night RAW on Netflix in 2025. That will mark the end of the WWE Network.
In a letter to WWE Network subscribers, the company says the network will cease to exist on January 1st, 2025.
“After January 1, Netflix will be the new exclusive home of WWE,” the letter said. “Netflix will bring WWE’s electrifying content all to one place, including weekly shows, Monday Night RAW, SmackDown, and NXT, plus premium live events (PLEs), such as WrestleMania, Royal Rumble, and SummerSlam. Many of WWE’s top moments, along with historic PLEs and select programming will be available on Netflix beginning on January 1.”
The WWE Network has previously been on Peacock since 2021. The network was originally launched as a streaming platform in February 2014.
However, WWE and Netflix agreed to a 10-year, $5 billion contract to air Monday Night RAW earlier this year. Other companies like Amazon and Disney were also reportedly included in the race for the rights.
The addition of Netflix is one of many changes to the WWE television deals. SmackDown is departing the FOX broadcast network in favor of Comcast’s USA Network. Meanwhile, NXT is now featured on The CW Network after previously airing on USA.
