In January 2025, WWE RAW will make its highly anticipated move from television to Netflix. The flagship show will debut on the streaming giant on January 6, 2025. WWE has already announced significant updates, confirming that the show will take place at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, California.
WWE Superstars such as John Cena, Roman Reigns, Bianca Belair, Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, Seth Rollins, and others will make appearances. Additionally, rapper Travis Scott will join the show. WWE has revealed an exciting lineup for its debut on Netflix.
Speculation has been swirling for weeks, with rumors suggesting the promotion plans to deliver a premium live event-level card for the debut episode. Recent reports indicate that a major match, originally canceled at WrestleMania 40, will now take place on this show.
At WrestleMania 40, CM Punk was originally set to face Seth Rollins for the World Heavyweight Championship. However, Punk’s triceps injury forced WWE to scrap those plans. Although Punk and Rollins had several interactions, they never faced off in an official match.
Last week on RAW, their tension reached a boiling point when they brawled, only for Jey Uso and Sami Zayn to intervene and break it up. With the animosity between Seth Rollins and CM Punk intensifying, their match could happen sooner than expected. Reports reveal that WWE has planned CM Punk vs. Seth Rollins for the debut edition of WWE RAW on Netflix.

Dr. Chris Featherstone of Sportskeeda reveals that WWE plans to book a Seth Rollins vs. CM Punk match for the debut of WWE RAW on Netflix, set for January 6, 2025. Featherstone shared the news on X formerly known as Twitter, confirming that the match will take place at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, California.
While many expected this match to take place at WrestleMania 41, it seems WWE is planning to draw as many eyes as possible to their debut episode on Netflix. With Rollins vs. Punk planned for the show, fans now look forward to the official announcement.
