Netflix subscribers tuning in to catch the WWE Raw Netflix premiere from Monday night are being greeted with a slightly altered experience. The episode, labeled Edited from a previous livestream, features several significant changes compared to its original broadcast.
The biggest modification? All explicit language has been scrubbed. That includes The Rocks fiery swearing and the infamous f**k you Solo chants during the ring introductions for the Roman Reigns vs. Solo Sikoa match. Fans who were there live or caught the initial airing might notice the absence of these intense moments, but the energy of the show remains intact.
The episode has also been trimmed down to about 2 hours and 20 minutes. This is largely due to the removal of commercial breaks, streamlining the show for uninterrupted viewing. While the edits cut down on runtime, fans can still enjoy the full essence of the event.
For those wondering, the boos aimed at Hulk Hogans segment are still present in the edited version, proving some moments are too big to erase. Previously, the unedited version of the Raw premiere was available on demand, but Netflix has since replaced it with this polished version.
