Triple H reacts to potential issues with upcoming WWE RAW switch
Triple H reacted to potential issues with an upcoming change to WWE RAW. The promotion is currently on the road to WWE Survivor Series 2024 next weekend at the Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
WWE RAW will be making the switch from the USA Network to Netflix in January 2025. The boxing match between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul was recently streamed on Netflix and the platform buffered throughout the night.
Speaking on Greg & The Morning Buzz, Triple H shared his thoughts on potential buffering issues with RAW on Netflix. The King of Kings noted that if the show buffers because there is an incredible number of fans watching, then he would be okay with it.
“If our first night buffers and they come and say it was 60-70 million households watching, I’ll be good with the buffering," he said. [H/T: WrestleOps on X]
The promotion and Netflix agreed to a 10-year deal to bring RAW to Netflix in 2025. SmackDown's time on the Fox Network came to an end earlier this year, and the blue brand can now be seen on the USA Network every Friday night.
Former WWE writer claims Triple H is a mark for supporting popular star
Wrestling legend Vince Russo recently took a shot at Triple H for pushing IYO Sky on WWE RAW.
The Genius of the SKY won a Battle Royal earlier this month to become the number one contender for Liv Morgan's Women's World Championship. Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW show, Russo sarcastically said that fans should be invested in IYO SKY because the company liked her work. The veteran then suggested that both Shawn Michaels and Triple H were marks.
"Yeah, because they love her at the WWE. They love her, so you should love her. Don't you know how it works, bro? They are high on her, so you should be high on her. You don't need to know anything about her. Just know that they are high on her, bro, and you should be high on her too. They are marks, bro, they are such marks! Triple H is a mark. Shawn Michaels is a mark. They are all freakin' marks, bro." [45:27 - 45:57]
