WWE’s December 2 episode of Monday Night RAW was filled with emotional moments and shocking turns, but a lot of Canadian fans watching on Sportsnet didn’t get to see much of it. Starting with The New Day’s 10th Anniversary celebration, Sportsnet viewers were hit with a black screen and no audio, leaving some fans in the dark for the remainder of the show.

The technical issues couldn’t have come at a worse time, as The New Day’s milestone segment was one of the night’s most anticipated moments. The decorated tag team celebrated a decade together with an elaborate in-ring setup, heartfelt speeches, and even the surprise return of Big E. However, things took a dramatic turn when Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston turned on their longtime partner, blaming him for abandoning them after his career-threatening neck injury. The moment marked a major shift for the group as Woods and Kingston seemingly embraced a darker, heelish edge.

Unfortunately, Canadian a lot of fans missed not only this pivotal storyline but also the rest of the night’s action. From Big E’s emotional plea to stay with the group to Kofi and Xavier’s cutting remarks, viewers were left to piece together the events from online updates and social media posts.

Sportsnet has yet to release a statement addressing the blackout, leaving fans frustrated and demanding answers. With WWE RAW being a staple of Monday night television, the blackout left many Canadian viewers questioning what caused the outage and whether the issue will be resolved before next week’s show.
