WWEs December 2 episode of Monday Night RAW was filled with emotional moments and shocking turns, but Canadian fans watching on Sportsnet didnt get to see much of it. Starting with The New Days 10th Anniversary celebration, Sportsnet viewers were hit with a black screen and no audio, leaving them in the dark for the remainder of the show.
The technical issues couldnt have come at a worse time, as The New Days milestone segment was one of the nights most anticipated moments. The decorated tag team celebrated a decade together with an elaborate in-ring setup, heartfelt speeches, and even the surprise return of Big E. However, things took a dramatic turn when Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston turned on their longtime partner, blaming him for abandoning them after his career-threatening neck injury. The moment marked a major shift for the group as Woods and Kingston seemingly embraced a darker, heelish edge.
Unfortunately, Canadian fans missed not only this pivotal storyline but also the rest of the nights action. From Big Es emotional plea to stay with the group to Kofi and Xaviers cutting remarks, viewers were left to piece together the events from online updates and social media posts.
Sportsnet has yet to release a statement addressing the blackout, leaving fans frustrated and demanding answers. With WWE RAW being a staple of Monday night television, the blackout left many Canadian viewers questioning what caused the outage and whether the issue will be resolved before next weeks show.
