International episodes of WWE RAW could end up airing live on Netflix
Earlier this week, it was confirmed that WWE will be producing six editions of RAW and Smackdown from Europe in March of 2024. WWE typically airs international shows on tape delay in the United States but that could change with RAW moving to Netflix in January.
During WrestleVotes Radio from Sportskeeda.com’s Backstage Pass Patreon, the following was said about the international shows that air on Netflix…
“WWE did make some big news internationally this week, as they announced a three-week tour of the United Kingdom, directly in the middle of WrestleMania season, with six of those shows being TV episodes of both Raw and SmackDown. We are told that, after speaking with Netflix sources, that Netflix is absolutely open to the idea of broadcasting those Raw shows live as they happen.
Basically, we could be looking at some Monday afternoon Raw right in the middle of WrestleMania season. We’re told that WWE is considering the idea, no decision, one way or the other, but Netflix is on board for doing those shows live as they happen. Of course, Smackdown will be on tape delay from USA Network. Nothing changing there, but to be determined, if Netflix wants to host these shows live as it’s on the table.” (quote courtesy of WrestlingNews.co)
