Cody Rhodes talks about locker room morale in WWE as the roster gears up for WWE Raw's move to Netflix.
WWE's flagship show, Monday Night Raw, will move to Netflix in January 2025. This will be another major move as WWE continues to rack up historic arena sellouts and break records throughout 2024.
Cody Rhodes recently discussed the move to Netflix during an appearance on the Pat McAfee show. Rhodes told McAfee that WWE's locker room morale is very high right now, and Cody reflected on how WWE's approach to content has changed during his time as a WWE Superstar.
"I think the locker room is through the roof morale-wise in terms of going to Netflix. We all have it, we all watch Netflix and love it, but the idea of the streaming era, truthfully, WWE in the past was actually always a little bit ahead of the curve, in terms of banking content," said Cody. "At first it was 24/7 on demand, then it was the Network and now Peacock, but Netflix is gonna be huge for us. When I say expanding and I say where we’re going, and I think certain individuals in the locker room, some of the champions, some of the top guys and girls know this as well, we’re going up in terms of our public spotlight, I suppose. College football, NFL, those are the biggest things on the planet. They really, really are. We’re moving up and trying to get in that air, and if you know anything about what we’re doing, we’re not far off, and Netflix, I think, is definitely a big part of that. This is a huge deal for Netflix, it’s a huge deal for WWE. I’m just excited that we get to kind of ride this new wave."
John Cena is another individual who has contributed to many of WWE's positive waves of momentum. He has stated that he doesn't want to miss the debut of WWE Raw on Netflix.
Cody Rhodes recently stated that he modeled much of his career after John Cena's. Learn more here.
