​In January 2025, WWE’s flagship program, Monday Night Raw, made a historic transition from traditional cable television to the streaming giant Netflix. This move marked a significant shift in how wrestling content is consumed, with the company aiming to reach a broader, global audience. As we progress through the year, analyzing the viewership trends provides insight into the show’s performance on this new platform.

WWE Raw’s Viewership Performance on Netflix in 2025

The premiere episode on January 6, 2025, garnered relatively impressive numbers, with 4.9 million global views and an average of 2.6 million households tuning in from the United States. This represented a 116% increase compared to Raw’s average U.S. viewership in 2024.

Following the debut, as is the be expected, viewership experienced fluctuations. The January 13 episode saw a decline to 3.7 million global views. Subsequent weeks maintained a steady range between 2.6 million to 3.1 million views. For instance, the February 3 episode attracted 3.1 million views, while February 24 dipped to 2.6 million, marking the lowest point since the Netflix debut.

Despite these variations, WWE Raw has seemingly secured positions within Netflix’s top 10 English-language shows globally in Q1.
