Tonight is a big night for WWE as Monday Night Raw makes its highly anticipated debut on Netflix. Word is that the show will clock in at an impressive 3.5 hours (per: Wrestlevotes), giving fans even more action than they’re used to from its cable days. The move to Netflix is a game-changer, opening up possibilities for deeper storytelling and less pressure to cram everything into a strict time slot. Naturally, fans are buzzing with speculation about what surprises WWE might have up its sleeve for this streaming premiere.
Triple H has been upfront about the new format, saying there won’t be any “hard out” time. Essentially, the show will run as long as it needs to get the storylines across, which is great news for fans who’ve often felt some stories get rushed. This could mean longer matches, more backstage drama, and all the twists WWE loves to throw our way. It’s a fresh start for Raw, and tonight’s debut could set the tone for what wrestling on a streaming platform looks like. One thing’s for sure—fans will be glued to their screens to see how it all plays out.
Several legends and superstars have been announced for tonight’s Netflix debut including the likes of: Hulk Hogan, The Rock, Becky Lynch and a host of talent from WWE NXT. With NXT New Years Evil taking place tomorrow night, can we expect to see any NXT Superstars on the Raw Netflix debut?
