The prayers of many wrestling fans have been answered as
tonight, WWE Raw switches to two hours instead of three,
eliminating the 10PM to 11PM hour on USA Network.
The two-hour switch is however temporary as plans are to
revert to three hours once the show moves to Netflix in
January 2025.
But this new, three-month temp deal from NBCUniversal
translates to around $25 million for WWE for two hours of
action on Monday nights, the first time the show will be two
hours since it’s permanent move to three back in July 2012.
Raw will start at its usual time slot of 8PM ET but at 10PM
ET, the series The Anonymous will kick off on USA Network.
Ratings are likely going to get slightly better too as the
third hour often dragged down the average viewership and the
18-49 demo as well.
