WWE Raw on Netflix, January 20: 3 million global views
How viewership for the third episode of Monday Night Raw on Netflix performed
GLOBAL 7-DAY VIEWERSHIP
WWE Raw on Netflix
Monday, January 20, 2025
3,000,000 global views
Data is from Netflix's Tudum weekly top 10 TV show rankings.
Global views are defined by Netflix as hours watched divided by duration. The measurement indicates viewership for the entire seven-day period from the program's airing.
Raw ranked #7 globally for the week. It ranked #4 globally for both of the first two episodes. Raw ranked #4 in the United States, the same as last week. The premiere ranked #5 in the U.S.
As always, Netflix only publishes global data (and only for the programs in its top 10), so we don't have U.S. viewership data. It's notable, though, that live viewing in the U.S. was opposed by the College football national championship game (Notre Dame vs. Ohio State) on ESPN which had 20,723,000 viewers, according to Programming Insider.
Netflix announced that the premiere on January 6, averaged 2.6 million households live+same-day in the U.S., which is more than double the 1.22 million households that watched Raw on average throughout 2024.
Analysis: If we assume U.S. live+same-day household viewership has declined from the premiere to exactly the same degree as global seven-day viewership (49%), then U.S. live+same-day household viewership for episode 3 of Raw on Netflix would have averaged 1.32 million households, higher than its 2024 average (1.22 million) and its January 2024 average (1.29 million). Note that the metric we're considering here is households and not viewers, as a number of viewers on Netflix hasn't been reported. Raw in 2024 averaged 1.66 million viewers live+same-day. However, given the college football game competition, it's reasonable to imagine U.S. viewership for the January 20 episode might have been especially impacted.
