Rob Fee says it feels like WWE will be appointment TV for the world.
WWE kicked off a new era with the WWE Raw on Netflix premiere on January 6th. The buzzworthy show featured appearances from The Rock and John Cena, as well as a Tribal Combat Match between Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa. Plus, CM Punk faced Seth Rollins, and Rhea Ripley challenged Liv Morgan for the WWE Women's World Championship.
In an interview with Netflix's website, WWE Director of Character Development Rob Fee discussed WWE Raw moving to Netflix. He noted that the premiere episode delivered big moments but set up plenty of excitement for the future. Fee also said that the show would only get more addicting from here on out.
“There were huge moments. "John Cena announcing he’s going to be in the Royal Rumble. Logan Paul saying he’s a full-time WWE Superstar now. Roman Reigns is getting all the power back — where does that leave him? So many big things are happening now and on the way. It really feels like it's going to be appointment TV for the world, which is unbelievable. I think it's a complete game-changer. Over the next several weeks, months, and years, you're going to see stories from the beginning — how they start building, how these relationships play out, how superstars interact, and you’ll get invested in these stories. The nuance is captivating [and] there’s so much attention to detail. If you enjoyed tonight, you're in for a treat, because it's only going to get more addicting from here," Fee said.
