WWE Raw

The end of an era this past Monday as RAW aired for the last time on USA. It first aired on USA January 1993. This Monday it will air on Netflix. Be interesting to see how this plays out. Smackdown made its move to USA awhile back and will stay on USA.

It will be interesting to see how Raw fairs on Netflix, as they've struggled with their live events ever since the Paul/Tyson fight, not mistaking they're was some streaming issues during the Christmas day NFL games.

Did read something that with Raw moving to Netflix, I guess WWE will be producing more edgier content than before, don't think it will be comparable to the attitude era type content, but hopefully more of a nod back to that time, which was the best time to watch. I'll give it a try, especially if we get all this bad weather they're talking about and can't get out of the house.

I am hoping it works. Not sure why the move, well I am sure $$$$ is the reason. As for the content I have seen where it will continue to be PG and I hope it does. I watch it with my son and really hope the content stays like it is. It already toes the line at times. Of course being on Netflix I am sure they will cross that line at times. Only time will tell.

Any predictions for the first episode?

It's a loaded card for sure. I am looking forward to Seth Rollins Vs CM Punk. The promo they put out was phenomenal. A lot of truth and a lot of cinema in it. Both definitely took their shots. I am also curious to see the plan for Cena's final year.

Read an article where HHH said it will still remain the same rating, but like you said moving to Netlfix, they will push the envelope on certain things so to say, which they already had went that direction the last year or so, especially since the Rock made his comeback. It's something they won't need to do all the time to keep the fans invested, but I'm sure the bigger storylines will have more edge to them.
