WWE Not Changing Age Rating Of Raw For Move To Netflix

WWE Raw will remain a PG product when the show moves to Netflix in January 2024, WWE President Nick Khan has confirmed.

Khan told Sports Illustrated at a WWE-Netflix media event:

"We're not changing the rating of our programming. There's some online chatter about, oh, it's gonna be R-rated, or for us old folks, like X-rated. That's definitely not happening. So it's family-friendly, multi-generational, advertiser-friendly programming. It's gonna stay that way. I would look for more global flair, especially as the relationship [with Netflix] continues to develop."

WWE Raw was listed on Netflix as having a TV-14 rating in the United States. The show is still listed with a 15 rating in the United Kingdom along with SmackDown, while NXT has a 12 rating.

WWE has presented a PG product since the end of the Ruthless Aggression era in 2008.

Monday Night Raw will premiere on Netflix on January 6, 2025 from the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, California. Raw will air on Netflix as part of a 10-year deal worth $5 billion and all of WWE's programming will be available on Netflix in the United Kingdom.
