WWE Monday Night Raw will make the transition from the USA Network to Netflix in January of 2025, but will it be a three-hour or two-hour show?
During his visit backstage at the recent WWE Raw show in Austin, TX., The Undertaker spoke with WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque and fellow WWE executive Bruce Prichard about Raw being a long three-hour weekly show, and whether or not there is a chance it will be cut back to two hours when they move to Netflix in January.
“I saw Paul [Levesque], Triple H, at the end of the night,” Undertaker said on his “Six Feet Under” podcast. “That’s a lot of wrestling for me to attend on my schedule these days. I went up to him, gave him a hug. Told him [goodbye].”
‘The Phenom” would go on to discuss his chat with the WWE CCO about the three-hour length of the show, and how it’s too long in his opinion.
“I said, ‘Alright, I’ll see you at ‘Mania.’ [Laughs] He got what I was saying,” Undertaker said. “The whole time I sat up at Gorilla Position with Paul and Bruce Prichard and then myself, we’re sitting up there. I was like, ‘This show’s really three hours long?’ I know it is, but I was just like, when you guys go to Netflix, is this show gonna cut back down to two hours? Three hours, why three hours? [Laughs] It’s been three hours forever now, but I was just kind of trying to stress the point of three hours is a lot of wrestling on a Monday night.”
