WWE's strategic partnership with Netflix continues to yield a positive response as it is ruling Netflix's global rankings. In a major move earlier this year, WWE has partnered with Netflix to bring its flagship programming to the streaming giant from April 1, 2025.
This deal ensured that fans across India and globally get an immersive and seamless viewing experience and non-stop action 52 weeks a year. The partnership blended entertainment and high-octane live sports, offering fans a seamless and engaging platform to watch their favorite WWE superstars in action.
However, it has come to light that both "Monday Night Raw" and the recent " Backlash 2025 " event have secured prominent positions in the streaming platform's global rankings. Here are more details of Netflix’s global rankings of WWE RAW , and the recently held WWE Backlash.
WWE RAW and Backlash 2025 top the Netflix global rankings
WWE Raw and Backlash 2025 have topped the Netflix global rankings this time. According to Tudum, Raw’s 18th episode on Netflix streamed live from Omaha, Nebraska, on May 5, and continued WrestleMania 41’s big storylines featuring Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins & company. It ranked fourth globally among English-language shows in the seven-day span that ended on May 4.
As per Netflix’s report, the May 5 episode garnered 2.8 million views, a slight decrease of 200,000 from the previous week, aligning with viewership levels observed before WrestleMania 41. Despite facing strong viewership and competition from NBA and NHL playoff games, WWE Raw has managed to secure the third position in the U.S. market as one of the highest domestic rankings for the fourth consecutive week.
However, in Australia, it was in Ninth position. In Bolivia, Raw topped the Fourth rank, Backlash was third, and SmackDown ninth. In Canada, RAW was fourth in rank, Backlash was fifth, and in the United Kingdom RAW was down to sixth spot, while WWE Backlash was ranked fifth.
The Backlash 2025 event, which featured John Cena, also made significant strides in Netflix's rankings. In Bolivia, Backlash secured the third position, while in Canada, it ranked fifth. Mexico and Saudi Arabia both reported Backlash at fifth place, and in India, it entered the top ten at tenth position.
