FORBES: WWE BEATS SQUID GAME

>If you thought that Squid Game season 2, which set viewing records for its debut, was going to stay on top of Netflix’s top 10 list for weeks and weeks, you’d be wrong. At least that’s true in America where it has just been unseated at #1 by the arrival of WWE Monday Night RAW, the new acquisition by Netflix that will be airing for a long, long time, and I do wonder if it’s going to be consistently taking the top spot, or if it’s just for the introduction here.

>The debut of RAW clocks in at a massive 183 minutes, over three hours, and featured the likes of The Rock and others returning for the big event. And unlike other Netflix shows, part of the stipulation here is traditional commercial breaks.

>Like old RAW, this will in fact air every single week for well, a decade. Yes, that’s the deal that Netflix made which is reportedly worth over $5 billion. Yes, billion, with a B. We have reached 1,650 episodes of RAW and we’re about to get hundreds more on Netflix itself. I will in fact be pretty bored if it keeps hitting number one every single week.

>Squid Game, of course, is still doing amazingly. We still do not know its first week numbers yet, but we should get those soon, and I expect them to be potentially record-breaking just like the early premiere was. Squid Game will return for season 3 in 2025, but it may be as soon as June, according to Netflix leaking the data itself, briefly. It will conclude then lead into Netflix’s other two huge releases later in the year, Stranger Things season 5 and Wednesday season 2. Between all three of these, RAW and other unexpected hits, this may turn into a record year for Netflix.
