WWE Raw, one of wrestling’s signature’s programs, previously aired on Mondays on the USA Network. In January 2024, it was announced that Raw would move to Netflix under a $500 million-per-year deal, as the streaming giant ramps up its live sports offerings. Last year, Netflix hosted major sports events like two NFL Christmas games and the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson fight.
Tonight’s broadcast promises an exciting lineup of special guests, including John Cena, who will officially retire from wrestling this year, along with Logan Paul, Cody Rhodes, and Roman Reigns. Rapper Travis Scott, who created the new WWE Raw theme song, is slated to perform. Additionally, The Rock confirmed on Sunday that he will be making an appearance as well.
“I’ll come back home to WWE tomorrow night as we make history on Netflix and begin a new and exciting era,” he penned on X. “Tomorrow night is dedicated to my grandfather, the High Chief Peter Maivia, my grandmother, Lia Maivia and my dad, Rocky ‘Soulman’ Johnson and my ancestors who have ALL paved the way.”
Monday’s premiere episode will feature reigning women’s world champion Liv Morgan as she defends her title against Rhea Ripley. Other anticipated matchups include Roman Reigns vs. Solo Sikoa, Drew McIntyre vs. Jey Uso, and CM Punk taking on Seth “Freakin” Rollins.
