WWE Arrives on Netflix in Japan

September 15, 2026

WWE is expanding its footprint on Netflix around the world.

Having launched on the streaming platform in January 2025 in the United States and other markets, WWE had not yet become available on Netflix in some parts of the world. In France and Belgium, for instance, the rollout began a year later.

In Japan, the broadcasting rights for WWE, secured by ABEMA in 2023, will expire on September 30. Thus, the WWE shows will be streamed live on Netflix in Japan starting October 1. RAW, NXT, and SmackDown will be offered on the platform.
