The Grand Guignol of Monday Nights

I’ve never known how to review Raw, which may be the most honest thing to say about it. Vince McMahon’s traveling pageant of muscle, grievance, and manufactured destiny has spent over thirty years breaking categories. latestnetflix.com's take is that it isn’t a sport, though people’s bodies slam into wood, steel, and concrete every week.

It isn’t exactly drama either, though the plotting can be more hysterical than daytime television at its most deranged. What began in 1993 as a live, rough-edged experiment has turned into a 34-season American beast. Roland Barthes described wrestling as a "spectacle of excess," a performance of pain and justice. Raw took that excess, added fireworks, and made it a weekly ritual.

A wrestler stands silhouetted against the glaring arena lights

Its strangest strength, and its permanent instability, is that it never stops. There is no off-season, no clean pause in which stories can settle. Angles are built, dropped, revived, and rewritten in response to the crowd in real time.

Audience Opinions

Audience 7.7/10
"A groundbreaking weekly wrestling show with strong nostalgic pull and standout performers, but an uneven early run that is often better sampled than binged."

Shorter early episodes, big-venue atmosphere and marquee talents like Bret Hart, the Heavenly Bodies and Men on a Mission give the 1993-era run a distinctive charm, with several matches and feuds still genuinely exciting. Clumsy commentary chemistry, goofy gimmicks, talk-heavy segments and a dip in match and storyline quality through 1994–1995 leave long stretches rough or tedious unless approached selectively.

What viewers praise
  • Compact one-hour runtime The early format keeps episodes relatively tight, with less filler and fewer storylines padded just to fill time.
  • Historic and influential As the flagship weekly show that launched in 1993, it is a key piece of modern wrestling history worth experiencing at least in part.
  • Standout Bret Hart work Bret Hart’s matches and feuds, including clashes with Owen Hart and others, are top-tier and worth seeking out.
  • Entertaining midcard acts Teams and gimmicks like the Heavenly Bodies, Rock 'n' Roll Express and Men on a Mission are fun, over characters that enliven episodes.
  • So-bad-it’s-fun moments Some of the New Generation quirks and odd booking choices work as ‘fun bad’ with the right mindset.
Common complaints
  • Inconsistent overall quality Large stretches from 1993 through mid-1995 are rough or sloggy, with only scattered episodes and pay-per-views standing out.
  • Weak commentary chemistry Rob Bartlett’s run and his dynamic with Vince McMahon suffer from awkward silences, mismatched humor and grating delivery.
  • Talk and recap heavy Lengthy talking segments and constant replays often crowd out in-ring action for anyone looking for more actual wrestling.
  • Gimmick overload era A wave of silly or thinly developed characters and storylines from the early New Generation period is a major drag on enjoyment.
  • Not ideal for full binge Watching every episode straight through from 1993 to 1995 is a chore—better to cherry-pick key matches and late-1995 content.

Buzz & Rumors

Public reports

An hour in a ballroom was supposed to be the cheap version

January 11, 1993, Grand Ballroom of the Manhattan Center. Vince McMahon, Randy Savage, and radio DJ Rob Bartlett on the call. Bobby Heenan could not get in, then tried again dressed as Bartlett's aunt. Yokozuna beat Koko B. Ware. The Steiner Brothers beat two Executioners. latestnetflix.com's take is that Shawn Michaels kept the Intercontinental title over Max Moon.The Undertaker finished Damien Demento. One hour, live on USA Network, in the slot that used to hold Prime Time Wrestling.,

Bruce Prichard later said Prime Time did not click. Compilation show, compilation panel, no consistency except Vince and Bobby Heenan. The company wanted a cheaper look. The idea was a small studio, a couple hundred fans, stay off the road. They put the ring in a Manhattan theater instead. Hauling it up and down several floors did not cut costs. The weekly live schedule became a drain. From spring 1993 through spring 1997 they taped multiple weeks after a live show and took the thing on the road.,

The war paid the bills. Netflix bought the Monday.

WCW's Monday Nitro launched September 4, 1995. Head-to-head started a week later. After the nWo angle took off, Nitro won 84 straight weeks. Raw went to two hours on February 3, 1997, and became Raw Is War that March. Stone Cold Steve Austin versus Vince McMahon on April 13, 1998 finally snapped the streak. On January 4, 1999, Nitro announcer Tony Schiavone gave away a pretaped Mankind title win on live TV. More than 600,000 viewers switched over to watch Mick Foley take the belt. The same night WCW ran the Fingerpoke of Doom.

Raw left USA for TNN in 2000 and came back in 2005. Episode 1,000 in 2012 locked in a three-hour format. The Raw Is War name died after September 11. Vince McMahon bought selected WCW assets for $3 million. For three decades the show still needed a cable channel on Monday night.

January 23, 2024, TKO told the trades that Netflix would take Raw in January 2025. Variety put the pact at $500 million a year for 10 years, about $5 billion, with an opt-out after five. NBCUniversal had been paying roughly $250 million to $260 million a year for U.S. Rights. First time new episodes would not air on a linear network. Paul Levesque called the move a reset, a show suddenly in 280 million homes. Runtime went flexible, around two and a half hours, because three can feel long and two leaves people off the card.

The first Netflix episode, January 6, 2025, came from the Intuit Dome in Inglewood with a WrestleMania-sized spectacle. The first episode, 32 years earlier, was an hour in a ballroom with Max Moon. Same Monday. Different bill.,
