WWE has offered a new update on the Network.

On November 21st, it was announced by Netflix that Raw, SmackDown, NXT, and all Premium Live Events will air on the platform in the UK and Ireland from January 2025.

Following the announcement on social media, an email was sent to Network subscribers in the UK, confirming the service would “no longer be available” from January 1st, 2025.

It remains unclear as to how much content will move from the Network to Netflix.

WWE Offers Thank You To Fans

Customers in the UK and Ireland received an email on December 1st notifying them that the WWE Network will be closing down on January 1st. As such, subscriptions have automatically been disabled, but as a thank you the Network will be free until December 31st.

Dear WWE Network Subscriber,

On Janu‍ary 1, 2025, WWE Network will no longer be available in your area and Netflix will be the new exclusive home of WWE. As a result, subscription to WWE Network has been disabled in the app store and will not renew on your next billing date.

As a thank you for being for being a fan and valued subscriber, we welcome you to continue enjoying WWE Network with complimentary access until December 31, 2024, after which you will need to subscribe to Netflix to continue enjoying WWE content, including all Premium Live Events as well as Raw, SmackDown and NXT — streaming live, in one place, for the first time ever. If you already have a Netflix subscription, you’re all set.

Following Monday Night Raw’s move to Netflix in the United States, the WWE brand split is expected to take a backseat. It has already been noted that Roman Reigns is expected to be a regular on the red brand through the early months of 2025.
