WWE Raw on Netflix will premiere on January 6 as WWE Raw moves off linear television for the first time since the show debuted in 1993.
Brian Fadem, VP and line producer at WWE, spoke to Sports Business Journal about changes fans can expect as WWE moves to the streaming platform.
“While you might go to commercials if you’re in Texas, if you’re in Italy you’re going to see us continue content,” said Fadem. “You're going to see the continuation of a match. You're going to see exclusive interviews with our talent. You might see an exclusive package that will only be viewed on that international level.”
Fadem said WWE has been thinking about the show since September and that they are aiming for a three-hour event.
As far as production changes, Fadem said, “That’s one thing we’re really going to try to lean into [today]. Getting these drones to be used in intimate ways and really take the viewer who’s at home, trying to get them to feel here like everyone else. We’re just trying to up our game a little bit. I think we did a really good job this last year presenting our product, making it feel different than it had in the past. While we don't want to stray too far from that, we also do want to make it seem like there's a little bit more of a grand stage to it on a weekly basis.”
Triple H previously said that WWE Raw runtime will be flexible on Netflix.
