Triple H Addresses Netflix Concerns Ahead of WWE Streaming Transition
Paul “Triple H” Levesque, the WWE Chief Content Officer and two-time Royal Rumble winner, recently addressed concerns about the upcoming debut of Raw on Netflix. In an interview on “Greg and the Morning Buzz,” he reassured fans that the show’s arrival on Netflix in January would not cause any hiccups in the streaming service’s performance. Despite worries about overwhelming Netflix’s bandwidth, Levesque sees any potential buffering delays as a sign of WWE’s immense popularity.
During the interview, Levesque shared his light-hearted take on the recent Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight, where technical issues caused frustration among viewers. The wrestling legend humorously noted that he experienced buffering while watching the fight on a plane, attributing it to the wonky signal at 40,000 feet. Despite this personal glitch, he remains unfazed by the prospect of similar technical challenges when WWE content lands on Netflix.
WWE has made a strategic move to partner with Netflix, closing down their WWE Network as of January 1, 2025, to exclusively stream their programming on the platform. The highly anticipated debut of Raw on Netflix on January 6, 2025, promises to feature WWE superstars like John Cena, Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, and more, with special appearances by artists like Travis Scott.
With this new venture, WWE aims to reach a broader audience and maintain its status as a global entertainment powerhouse. Triple H’s laid-back response to potential technical glitches reflects WWE’s confidence in its partnership with Netflix and the excitement surrounding the streaming debut of Monday Night Raw.
