Triple H believes that the WWE Raw era on Netflix has made things simpler for the company.

The first WWE Monday Night Raw episode of 2025 was the official start of the Netflix era for the company that decided to sign a deal with the world’s top streaming service. After 32 years of Raw being on cable television all around the world, it is now exclusively on Netflix for most of the world.

While Raw has been one hour, two hours, and three hours in the past, the time of the show on Netflix is flexible. Most episodes run 2 hours and 30 minutes, while many fans don’t see any commercials during the broadcast, depending on their Netflix plan.

Outside of the US, many countries around the world also get WWE shows like SmackDown, NXT and Premium Live Events on Netflix as well.

Paul “Triple H” Levesque is WWE’s Chief Content Officer who oversees the creative direction of the company. While speaking at the NAB Show in Las Vegas, Triple H talked about how most of the world using Netflix to watch WWE programming is a good thing for the company.

“This is the first time ever that it’s been simplified in a way that, globally, the world over, there’s one place, you know where it is, you know when it’s on and you can just go click on it and get there.

Whereas before, it was multiple partners all over the place depending on where you were, depending on when it was on and what time and everything else under the sun.”

Triple H Supports WWE Using Social Media To Drive Fans To Watch Full Shows

There are a lot of pro wrestling fans who are only casual fans who go to social media to follow the WWE product. According to Triple H, that’s a way for WWE to get those casual fans to watch full shows and hopefully support the company in the future.

“When you’re putting them in clip form on these things, you’re not giving away what we do.

They’re like trailers, and while people will consume a lot of our content in that manner, we’re actually driving them back to the longer form content as well that they’re already very familiar with, so when you see that clip that’s of a moment that you think, ‘Man, I have to go back and watch that whole thing,’ so it’s a wonderful back and forth, and you can go there and relive those moments at any point in time.”

While speaking about his boss’ role in WWE, Randy Orton praised Triple H as perhaps the greatest mind in the history of pro wrestling because of what he did as a wrestler and in his current role as the WWE boss.
