Fans Concerned About WWE RAW’s Netflix Move After Buffering Issues During Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul Fight

WWE’s Monday Night RAW is moving to Netflix, starting in January 2025, and fans are talking a lot about it. The change is part of a big deal between WWE and Netflix, which could bring exciting updates to the show. However, some fans are worried about streaming problems after fans experienced a lot of buffering issues during the Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight.

The spotlight was on AT&T Stadium for the highly anticipated fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson, streamed on Netflix. Excitement was high, but trouble began around 10:00 PM during the co-main event featuring Katie Taylor vs. Amanda Serrano. Viewers faced major disruptions as the stream repeatedly froze, with widespread buffering issues frustrating fans.

Considering the fact that Monday Night RAW will be moving to Netflix next year and the rest of the WWE shows will also be available on Netflix internationally, many fans are now concerned about the move.

Quite a few fans took to Twitter and expressed their concern about how the move will be handled. One fan noted that the WWE Premium Live Events will be freezing a lot after the move, saying, “I think PLE are gonna freeze a lot.” In addition to that, another fan said RAW will lose viewers, “Sad can’t record to watch and gonna lose viewers on raw.”

Another fan believed that RAW on Netflix would be a total disaster and that they should just stick to the USA Network and Peacock, saying, “Total Disaster, stay on @USANetwork and @peacock.” A different fan said they cancelled Netflix and won’t be watching RAW next year, saying,“Will no longer be watching I guess. I cancelled Netflix and will not go back.”

Triple H has expressed confidence that fans will smoothly transition to Netflix without any issues but that might not be the case at all once RAW moves to Netflix next year. Regardless, we’ll have to wait and see whether RAW will experience the same issues on Netflix in 2025.
