Report: Change being made to WWE RAW’s weekly live broadcasts once the show moves to Netflix

Last month, it was confirmed that WWE will be producing six editions of RAW and Smackdown from Europe in March of 2024. WWE has traditionally aired international shows on tape delay in the United States but that format appears to be changing.

According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com, highly placed sources within WWE have confirmed that once Monday Night RAW moves to Netflix in January of 2025, the current plan is for WWE RAW to air live every week no matter where the broadcast is located. Johnson elaborated on what is planned…

“So, if and when the company is taping in Europe, Raw will stream live in the United States at the same time, no matter the time zone differences. The plan is to have the show air live as it happens and then be available via VOD ASAP after it goes off the air. There will no longer be a taped delay waiting for 8 PM Eastern, so when WWE tours Europe leading up to Wrestlemania 41, those shows would air live in the United States in the afternoon.”
