Royal Rumble WWE Raw Back in Netflix Top 10 with 3.1M Views

The February 2nd episode of Royal Rumble WWE Raw re-entered Netflix’s global top 10 list for the week ending February 8, drawing 3.1 million views and accumulating 5.8 million hours watched. This marked a rebound after the previous week’s episode had fallen out of the rankings, signaling renewed interest among viewers worldwide.

Viewership Trends and Regional Popularity

This week’s episode outperformed the January 19th show, which attracted 2.5 million views, though it remained just below the 3.2 million views recorded on January 5, the one-year anniversary of Raw’s debut on Netflix. WWE Raw ranked among the top 10 programs in sixteen different countries, including Bolivia (#2), Ecuador (#4), Nicaragua (#4), the United States (#5), and Saudi Arabia (#7). Other nations where the show appeared in the top 10 were Canada, Guatemala, Mexico, El Salvador, Trinidad and Tobago, the United Kingdom, Egypt, Bahrain, India, Sri Lanka, and Australia.

Netflix’s Overall Streaming Landscape for the Week

The global top spot continued to be held by Bridgerton Season Four, which secured 23.4 million views in its second week. Earlier seasons of Bridgerton remained popular, with both Seasons One and Three still featured in the top 10. Alongside WWE Raw at sixth place were other notable shows: The Lincoln Lawyer Season Four at second with 9 million views, HIS & HERS at third with 6.2 million, and Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich also vying at seventh with 3.1 million views.

Comparison to Previous Years and Viewership Outlook

As a whole, WWE Raw’s average Netflix viewership in 2026 stands at approximately 2.93 million, which is a decline compared to the 3.72 million average at the same point in 2025. This modest downturn introduces some cautious optimism about future audience retention and growth, especially as the show continues to compete with highly popular series and new releases globally.
