WWE RAW set for major changes - Reports

It's well-known that WWE RAW will be moving from the USA Network to Netflix next year starting in January. However, a major change will be happening soon due to the Paris Olympics 2024, although it's only temporary.

WWE and Netflix announced their partnership back in January, with Monday Night RAW and all premium live events streaming live next year. Subscribers outside the United States will also get to watch SmackDown and NXT.

However, before that happens, it seems like the red brand will spend a couple of weeks on Syfy as the USA Network covers the Paris Olympics 2024. Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer (H/T: PW Mania) revealed the upcoming schedules of RAW and NXT in the last week of July and the first week of August.

Here are all the dates when RAW and NXT will be televised on Syfy and not on the USA Network:

  • July 29 (RAW)
  • July 30 (NXT)
  • August 6 (RAW)
  • August 7 (NXT)

NBC Universal, which owns the USA Network, is the official broadcaster of the Paris Olympics 2024. They have covered the Summer Olympics since 1988 and the Winter Olympics since 2002.

Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman even appeared in an NBC commercial last year with Dolly Parton and a minion to promote this year's Olympic games.


What to expect on next week's episode of WWE RAW?

The July 15 episode of WWE RAW will be held at the Nutter Center in Dayton, Ohio. There is going to be plenty of action this coming Monday as the brand announced a return, a match, and a segment.

Drew McIntyre's suspension for putting his hands on RAW General Manager, Adam Pearce has been lifted. The Scottish Warriors will likely have a lot of things to say upon his return, probably about how CM Punk cost him the World Heavyweight Championship again.

Sheamus vs. Bronson Reed has also been announced, which is going to be a hard-hitting affair. Reed gets The Celtic Warrior in one-on-one action, following their brawl last Monday night.

And finally, World Heavyweight Champion, Damian Priest will go face-to-face on a segment with the number-one contender and King of the Ring, Gunther.
