All WWE programming is switching to Netflix from January in the UK. US fans will also be able to watch WWE Raw on Netflix from 6 January 2025.
One of the most successful nichestreaming servicesis set to close down after more than a decade. Subscribers have been informed that their plans have been cancelled and they’ll no longer be able to watch from the end of December.
That’s because the WWE will make its official switch toNetflixat the beginning of next year and fans in the UK will be able to watch all WWE Raw, Smackdown, NXT and premium live shows there from then on.
And so the WWE Network, which started in the US in February 2024 and the UK the following year, will cease to operate in the region.
But, as a parting gift, the WWE Network service will be completely free to watch until the end of play 31 December 2024 – to current subscribers and anyone else who fancies dipping into a bit of wrestling action.
Of course, the Network hasn’t existed in the US for a while. WWE signed a deal to move most of the content, bar the weekly live shows to Peacock in 2021. But the UK has had a long-standing love affair with the service, considering it originally hosted NXT UK for the best part of six years.
Many of the current WWE roster debuted on the Great Britain-based show – including current World Heavyweight Champion Gunther (when known as Walter).
The UK is also one of the few nations to be getting all WWE programming on Netflix when it starts with Raw on 6 January 2025. US subscribers will be limited to just the Monday night show, with premium live events continuing on Peacock and Smackdown and NXT on their respective broadcast channels.

WWE Raw and Smackdown currently air on TNT Sports in Britain, but that deal also expires at the end of the year.
There will be no extra charge to watchWWE programming on Netflix, making it a great deal considering the WWE Network cost £9.99 per month on its own.
