Triple H addresses potential buffering issues for WWE RAW when the show moves to Netflix

On Friday night, the Netflix streaming service aired a live boxing event featuring WWE Hall of Famer Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul. According to Netflix, 60 million households tuned in to watch the fight. However, there were widespread technical issues for viewers and Netflix noted that “the boxing mega-event dominated social media, shattered records, and even had our buffering systems on the ropes.”

While appearing on New Hampshire’s Greg & The Morning Buzz radio show this week, Paul “Triple H” Levesque addressed potential buffering issues for WWE RAW when the show moves to Netflix…

“Look, I don’t want to flex about it, but it was buffering on my end because I was on a plane watching it. So the buffering was expected on my side. We were flying back from TV watching the fight and the signal was a little wonky. And I thought, ‘Well, we’re 40,000 feet in the air, it should be.’ But then sort of seeing it online of everybody saying it was buffering.

Look, you start putting 60 million households all at once on a streaming service. Put it this way, if our first night buffers and they come and say it was 60-70 million households watching, I’ll be okay with the buffering.” (quote courtesy of F4WOnline.com)
