WWE Raw recorded 2.3 million global views on Netflix for its November 2 episode, maintaining the same worldwide total the program posted one week earlier.
The episode placed No. 5 globally in Netflix’s rankings and also finished No. 5 in the United States. The placement represented an improvement from the October 26 edition of Raw, which likewise registered 2.3 million global views but ranked No. 7 worldwide and No. 8 in the United States.
In short, Raw’s reported audience total was flat week to week, while its standing among Netflix programming rose in both key rankings. The November 2 episode moved up two positions globally and three places in the U.S. compared with the prior week.
Raw Maintains Its Global Audience Total
The 2.3 million figure gives Raw consecutive weeks at the same reported global view total. While a matching number does not indicate an increase in viewing volume, the stronger chart performance shows that the November 2 broadcast was more competitive against the rest of Netflix’s available programming during its measurement window.

Netflix’s global view rankings provide a broad measure of consumption across the service’s international footprint. For WWE, the week-to-week ranking can shift even when the total number of views remains unchanged, as the placement depends on the performance of other titles being watched around the world and within the United States.
That context is important in reading the November 2 result. Raw did not need a larger reported view count than October 26 to improve its position. It matched the prior week’s 2.3 million views and nevertheless climbed from seventh to fifth globally. In the United States, it improved from eighth to fifth.
The result keeps Raw inside the global top five for the November 2 measurement period. It also places the WWE flagship within the top five on the U.S. chart, giving the show a notable presence in both the overall worldwide listing and its domestic market.
Comparison With the October 26 Episode
The October 26 episode established the immediate point of comparison: 2.3 million global views, No. 7 globally, and No. 8 in the United States. The November 2 program delivered the same global views total while making gains on each ranking chart.
- November 2 Raw: 2.3 million global views, No. 5 globally, No. 5 in the United States.
- October 26 Raw: 2.3 million global views, No. 7 globally, No. 8 in the United States.
- Week-to-week change: Global views were unchanged, while Raw rose two spots globally and three spots in the U.S.
The stable total is especially relevant because it offers a straightforward benchmark for Raw’s recent Netflix performance. The program held its reported audience level over consecutive weeks, avoiding a decline in the global views figure while gaining chart momentum.
Raw’s placement can be influenced by a variety of programming factors across Netflix’s catalog, not solely by WWE’s own audience movement. A higher ranking alongside an equal view total means the show performed better relative to competing titles, but it does not by itself establish why other titles moved up or down. The available numbers clearly show the ranking improvement and the unchanged global-view figure.
YouTube Clips Continue to Draw Attention
Several clips from Raw-related programming also generated significant attention on WWE’s YouTube presence. The most-viewed listed video centered on Cruz Montana, Roman Reigns, and The 946.
“Cruz Montana levels Roman Reigns and joins The 946” led the listed Raw videos with 1.8 million views. The clip’s title points to a major development involving Montana, Reigns, and The 946, and it finished ahead of a video announcing a tournament connected to John Cena.
“BREAKING NEWS: John Cena announces the John Cena Classic” drew 1.4 million views. The announcement video was the second-most-viewed entry among the listed Raw videos, showing strong interest in Cena’s revelation of the John Cena Classic.
A further Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn segment reached the one-million-view mark. “Sami Zayn HELLUVA KICKS Roman Reigns after a 946 beatdown” accumulated 1 million views, continuing the focus on the issues surrounding Reigns, Zayn, and The 946.
Another Zayn-Reigns video, “Sami Zayn FIRES BACK after Roman Reigns belittles him,” received 767,000 views. The listed clips show that the Reigns-related material was a substantial component of WWE’s digital conversation around Raw, with three of the five leading videos involving Reigns directly.
The fifth entry featured Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes. “Randy Orton invokes Dusty Rhodes in dire message to Cody Rhodes” reached 741,000 views, putting it among the most-watched WWE Raw videos in the group.
Top Five Listed WWE Raw Videos
- Cruz Montana levels Roman Reigns and joins The 946 — 1.8 million views

Collectively, those five videos account for more than 5.7 million views.

Still, the clips provide a useful indication of which Raw stories and personalities were attracting online attention.
The Roman Reigns material was particularly prominent. The top-ranked clip featured Reigns opposite Cruz Montana, while the third- and fourth-ranked videos tracked his interactions with Sami Zayn. With all three clips appearing in the top five, the Reigns-centered developments were among the most visible pieces of WWE’s Raw content on YouTube.

What the Latest Ranking Means
The November 2 data presents a positive ranking movement for Raw without a change to its reported global audience total. The show remained at 2.3 million views, but its No. 5 placement globally and in the United States marked a stronger chart result than the prior week.
For WWE, the immediate takeaway is consistency in the global views number coupled with improved visibility on Netflix’s weekly rankings. The show was seventh worldwide and eighth in the U.S. on October 26; one week later, it stood fifth in both categories.
The separate YouTube performance adds another layer to the week’s digital picture.
