What little data we get about the performance of WWE Raw on Netflix is here. It comes from the streamer itself via their Tudum website.
Tudum ranks Netflix’s Top 10 shows by weekly number of views, which
it calculates by dividing the time all subscribers spent watching a program by its duration. The default is a global ranking, which is also the only one where Netflix shows its work (e.g. the numbers behind the ranking). You can view the Top 10 for each country Netflix is in, but that only gives you a ranking, no numbers. Similar ranked lists are available for shows in English, one for shows in all other languages, and corresponding Top 10s for movies.
The latest Raw we’re getting Netflix’s numbers for streamed live from Springfield, Massachusetts on Sept. 15, and featured the brand’s final push to WWE’s new Wrestlepalooza premium live event , including xxx.
It had 2.6 million views, unchanged from the previous episode. Despite that, Raw rose one spot in the global rankings, to seventh. In the United States, Raw rose two spots to fourth place.
Saturday’s Wrestlepalooza show was created for the launch of WWE’s partnership with ESPN in the U.S., but most of the w0rld saw the show via Netflix. The Sept. 20 PLE didn’t have enough views to crack the global top ten (the cutoff was Haunted Hotel Season One’s 1.8 million views), but it did chart in several countries. In our non-exhaustive scan of the Netflix regions, Wrestlepalooza was second in Canada, third in Bolivia, Chile and Ecuador, fourth in Egypt, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico, and Nicaragua, fifth in Bahrain, Honduras, India, and the United Kingdom, seventh in Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, and Saudi Arabia, eighth in the Bahamas, and tenth in Bulgaria.
For comparison sake, Wednesday Season Two was back on top as Netflix’s most viewed show from Sept. 15-21. It had 7.2 million views during the tracking period.
Netflix is tracking a week’s worth of viewing, but it’s worth wondering how much of Raw’s audience still watches live. There were two Monday Night Football games on Sept. 15, but only one that aired at the same time as WWE’s show was live on Netflix. That game (Tampa Bay/Houston) drew more than 16 million viewers and a 4.02 18-49 rating on ABC and ESPN, per Programming Insider.
We’ll keep tracking Raw’s “views” data here… until it slips out of the global Top 10, and then it seems like we’ll stop getting any. But we’re gonna pass along whatever information we do get, and add it to our regular rundown of Raw’s TUDUM-reported performance for each episode of the Netflix Era:
