Backstage Notes and Potential Surprises Ahead of WWE RAW’s Netflix Debut – As WWE makes history with the debut of RAW on Netflix tonight from the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California, several backstage details have emerged, offering insight into what fans and talent can expect from the groundbreaking episode.
Show Length Flexibility
Unlike its previous broadcasts on USA Network, RAW on Netflix is not restricted by a hard time limit. Rehearsals last night hinted that WWE plans to take full advantage of this flexibility, potentially extending beyond the usual runtime if necessary.
Ticket Policy for Talent
Wrestlers were notified yesterday that no complimentary tickets are available for tonight’s show. Talent has been advised not to request any last-minute accommodations.
Royal Rumble Promotional Video
The promotional video for the upcoming Royal Rumble event is finished and has already been viewed internally. Fans may get their first look at the highly anticipated video during tonight’s episode.
Live Attendance Advisory
Fans attending the live event should prepare for potential delays. The Intuit Dome uses a specialized ticketing app that, according to reports, has caused significant entry delays at past events. With only one entrance and each digital ticket tied to an individual phone, long wait times—up to 90 minutes—have been reported. Given Los Angeles’s reputation for late-arriving crowds, fans are strongly encouraged to arrive early to avoid missing the show’s 5 PM local start time.
Potential Returns
There’s speculation that Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss could make appearances, but WWE insiders stress that any returns will be carefully staggered. One source emphasized, “This isn’t the old WWE,” suggesting a more strategic approach to reintroducing talent.
NXT Talent Presence
Top NXT stars, along with Shawn Michaels, Matt Bloom, and Ava, are confirmed to be on-site for tonight’s show, fueling further anticipation of cross-brand moments.
With surprises and a new era of streaming flexibility, tonight’s RAW promises to be a memorable event.
