This move is going to result in a massive viewership boost for WWE programming on Netflix, as India has WWE’s largest fanbase in terms of audience size.
A WWE Official said the following about the Indian wrestling market back in 2017:
“India is one of our top international markets. In terms of audience size, it is our largest. Something like 89 million Indians watched WrestleMania 33, 50 million Indians watch RAW and SmackDown every week. Sunday Dhamaal has 25 million tuning in. And those are numbers greater than any other international markets we have.”
