— WWE Raw’s premiere on Netflix was by all accounts a huge success for both companies and attention has turned to news on what sort of streaming numbers WWE’s flagship program drew on the platform as a baseline for future comparisons and performances.
— Wrestling insider Dr. Chris Featherstone noted today that according to his sources, Netflix has no plans to specifically release the viewership numbers either this week or in the future with one caveat – unless Raw makes their top ten list of programs. For context, at the beginning of the week, Netflix releases its top ten streamed shows from the previous week, while also reporting on the number of views that program achieved. If a show or movie falls outside of that top 10, there are no metrics that are publicly available. What that means is that Raw’s audience figures will only be available publicly if the show cracks that top 10. The list for this week for which the premiere fell on won’t be released until the beginning of next week.
