WWE Surpasses 280 Million Viewing Hours on Netflix – WWE’s partnership with Netflix is off to a strong start. According to a new report from Variety, WWE content has racked up over 280 million hours of viewership across Netflix platforms since the historic streaming deal launched on January 6, 2025.
The data includes Monday Night RAW’s live U.S. broadcasts, as well as SmackDown, NXT, and premium live events available in international markets. This milestone highlights the global appeal of WWE programming on Netflix and reflects the streaming service’s successful integration of the company’s weekly content and special events.
In particular, RAW continues to be a standout performer. The July 7 episode pulled in 2.6 million global views on Netflix, showing a slight increase from the 2.5 million views recorded the previous week. These numbers suggest the show is holding a consistent and engaged international audience, helped in part by the accessibility and convenience of the Netflix platform.
With SummerSlam fast approaching, WWE and Netflix aim to build even more momentum. Roman Reigns, who recently made a shocking return to WWE television, is slated to appear on the final two episodes of RAW before the premium live event. His return has reignited interest in the feud involving Paul Heyman’s new faction. Meanwhile, CM Punk’s ongoing chase for the World Heavyweight Championship continues to generate buzz and will likely serve as a key storyline heading into one of WWE’s biggest events of the year.
As Netflix and WWE prepare for their first SummerSlam together under the new agreement, the early metrics indicate the partnership is already paying off with impressive global reach and strong weekly viewership.
