Triple H speaks on the strong relationship between WWE and Netflix.
WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H recently spoke with BBC Newsbeat. When asked if Netflix had any input on the creative direction of WWE programming, Triple H confirmed that they have none and that Netflix only decides things such as how long the show is and when they go off the air each week.
“We create the superstars, we create the storylines. We do all of that and the world watches,” Paul Levesque said. “[Netflix only decides] how long the show is, when we go off air, or what time we’re on air, just like other live events. As far as the content of the shows… someone doesn’t tell the NFL how football’s played. They distribute our product.”
While only WWE RAW airs on Netflix in the United States, all WWE shows air on Netflix overseas, including the monthly premium live events.
