WWE to Netflix, Network presumably doomed

Legend. Especially the end.

A few news bits so far:

I love Kevin Owens and I get the joke but suits printed on a t-shirt will always give me cheapo stag-night-lolz fuck off vibes regardless of the context. He's gotta lose that.

I don’t want Raw or Smackdown to move to three hours when they go on Netflix. Two hours is the sweet spot for a pro-wrestling TV show. But if they must, I want the third hour of each show to just be Kevin Owens living his life. What a man. Best WWE Champion in a long time.

First Smackdown of 2025 will be on YouTube in the uk just like SNME Meltzer. Not seen anything official yet.

WWE Network just took £9.99 again Today

i thought they was not taking payments anymore ? I don't really want to pay £9.99 for 4 days!

anyone else had this?

Looks like the archive of Raw, Smackdown and NXT will be on Netflix soon, though not straight away.  That’s something at least.

Just had a look and (at least here in the Czech Republic) you get a handful of random episodes for a select number of years. 

Missing the Fedwork already...

Yeah it seems to be all the previous installments of the current PLEs and the last two or so years of Raw, Smackdown and NXT then selected episodes from previous years of each. With Raw (I think) there's a gap going back from 2022 - 2001. It seems to be the big important episodes that are on from each show, the episodes they always lift clips from for compilation shows

[Doog]

Similar to how WWE Network started out, i imagine they'll add them over time, the episodes do start chronologically too for the years which leads me to think everything will be added eventually.

[WyattSheepMask]

Yeah, add over time once Netflix have been over them and gone “well we’re not showing that” after finding another DX Blackface parody.

Theres actually way more historical stuff there than I was expecting. I thought they’d be the last year, maybe two years of PPVs and maybe the last year of TV and that was it, but no there’s Survivor Series 1995 if I ever want to watch it

Over the Edge 1999 uploaded.

I’d love to know the discussions behind that.

”Just edit the horrific, tragic death out. The people need to see The Union vs. The Corporate Ministry!”

[FLips]

Naturally put Wrestlemania 17 on first to check if My Way was there and it is. 
They seem to be leaving the WWF logo on their stuff now as well, here and on the Vault.

[TheScarlettChad]

I'm already hating it. It's no WWE network.

[Statto]

My older brother (50 tomorrow) is happy, anyway. 

[TibBo]

I would love to know the theory behind not putting the ppvs in chronological order? 
“Let’s go Survivor Series 2012, 1989, 1990, 2022, 1987…”
