When it came to WWE’s weekly programming, “WWE Raw” finished with the best numbers out of all three shows with it being the only brand to be featured on Netflix in the U.S, while “WWE SmackDown” and “WWE NXT” are available internationally, but on the USA Network and The CW in America.
Over the last six months, the most viewed episode of “Raw” was the November 17 edition of the show, which featured Cena’s final match on the red brand. From July 7 to August 25, “Raw” eclipsed the 3 million viewer mark every week, before falling below that threshold for most of September and October. The most viewed edition of “Raw” throughout all of last year remains the debut episode on Netflix that aired on January 6, 2025, which garnered a whopping 7.1 million viewers.
“SmackDown” averaged approximately 1.3 million viewers for the second half of last year on the USA Network, but often fell beneath the 1 million viewer mark internationally on Netflix. Out of the 26 episodes that aired on the platform from the beginning of July, 17 of them finished with less than 1 million viewers. The most watched episode of “SmackDown” over the last six months was on September 5, when AJ Lee returned to WWE. The episode was also the most viewed installment of “SmackDown” last year.
Finally, most of “NXT’s” PLE’s and weekly television averaged 200,000 viewers on Netflix internationally since July. “NXT Homecoming” was the most watched episode for the developmental brand, with the TV special drawing 300,000 viewers on September 16, which showcased several main roster stars. “NXT New Year’s Evil” obtained the most viewership for the show in 2025, which featured an appearance from The Rock and Oba Femi winning the NXT Championship.
