Okay, so, picture this: it’s Monday night, and I’m all set for my usual WWE Raw fix. I’ve been following WWE for a while. But this time, things are a bit different. It’s the end of an era, really. Raw’s time on the USA Network was ending, and it’s moving to Netflix. Yeah, you heard that right – Netflix! Starting January 6th, Raw found a new home, and I was here for it.
So I got myself ready, settled in on the couch. It’s gonna be on at 8 PM EST, which is 5 PM for those on the West Coast. Good thing I’m on the East Coast, right? Anyway, I’ve got my snacks, my drink, and I’m ready to go.
But here’s the kicker – it’s not just in the US. Some folks outside the States can get in on the action too, though the Premium Live Events are still on Peacock for us Americans. Bummer, I guess, but hey, at least we’re getting Raw, right?
Now, I heard some buzz that the show might get longer, back to three hours. And get this – even if you’ve got that ad-free Netflix plan, we’re still gonna have commercials. It’s like the old days of cable TV, huh?
They’re saying this whole deal between WWE and Netflix is massive, like a 10-year agreement worth over $5 billion. That’s some serious cash. I found this out when I was looking up some stuff about the December 23rd episode. WWE taped it right after the December 16th show, just to give the wrestlers some time off for the holidays. Smart move, if you ask me.
So, I watched the show, and man, it felt like a big deal. Like WrestleMania-level production values and everything. I’ve seen some spoilers, and I gotta say, there are some intense rivalries brewing. I won’t give anything away, but let’s just say things are heating up.
- First, I grabbed my snacks and settled in for the show.
- Then, I checked the time – 8 PM EST, perfect.
- I read up on the move to Netflix – big changes!
- Watched the show – felt like a WrestleMania event.
- Saw some spoilers – the rivalries are intense.
Oh, and one more thing – I heard that a certain two-time rushing champion won’t be playing in the Cowboys’ finale against Washington. I mean it is not related to WWE Raw, but still. Anyway, back to Raw – this move to Netflix is a game-changer. It’s the start of something new, and I’m excited to see where it goes.
My Final Thoughts
So, yeah, that was my Monday night. A bit of the old, a bit of the new, and a whole lot of wrestling action. Raw on Netflix – it’s gonna take some getting used to, but I’m here for the ride. It’s like a new chapter for WWE, and I’m all in to see how it unfolds.
