Below are a couple of top WWE & AEW news stories of the day, featuring RAW and Rampage.
• This week, WWE revealed an 11-city “Road to WrestleMania” tour scheduled for March 2025, with stops planned in Barcelona, Spain; Dortmund, Germany; Hannover, Germany; Brussels, Belgium; Bologna, Italy; Belfast, Northern Ireland; Nottingham, England; Glasgow, Scotland; Vienna, Austria; Amsterdam, Netherlands; and London, England.
For the first time, WWE will broadcast consecutive episodes of Monday Night RAW and Friday Night SmackDown from various cities across the UK and Europe over three weeks in March. WWE has increasingly been airing international PLEs live in the afternoon.
According to WrestleVotes, Netflix is open to streaming live afternoon episodes of RAW during WWE’s European tour next year:
“WWE did make some big news internationally this week, as they announced a three-week tour of the United Kingdom, directly in the middle of WrestleMania season, with six of those shows being TV episodes of both RAW and SmackDown.
We are told that, after speaking with Netflix sources, that Netflix is absolutely open to the idea of broadcasting those RAW shows live as they happen. Basically, we could be looking at some Monday Afternoon RAW right in the middle of WrestleMania season. We’re told that WWE is considering the idea, no decision, one way or the other, but Netflix is on board for doing those shows live as they happen.
Of course, SmackDown will be on tape delay from USA Network. Nothing changing there, but to be determined, if Netflix wants to host these shows live as it’s on the table.”
