Monday Night RAW is set to move from the USA Network to Netflix starting January 2025. WWE had inked a $5 billion deal with the popular streaming platform earlier this year.
This presents a great opportunity for the Stamford-based company to reach a wider audience. At the same time, there will be an increased responsibility to continue delivering top-tier shows consistently. As a result, RAW may need to strengthen its roster ahead of this massive move.
Here are four former WWE Superstars Triple H must consider bringing back before the end of the year.
#4. Matt Riddle
Matt Riddle was released by WWE in 2023 due to his behavioral issues outside the ring. However, one cannot deny his talents inside the square circle. The Original Bro had managed to establish himself on the main roster and was one of the most popular stars before his departure.
Riddle's tag team with Randy Orton called the RK-Bro was one of the hottest acts a few years ago. Triple H knows that Riddle can add value to the current roster. The star could be a smart addition to Monday Night RAW before it moves to Netflix.
#3. AJ Lee
With CM Punk back in WWE, the possibility of AJ Lee coming back to the Stamford-based company is greater than ever. The former Divas Champion was one of the most influential stars during her previous stint with the company. AJ Lee might be open to returning to the wrestling ring if the offer is right.
Triple H shouldn't miss this opportunity and add her to the Monday Night RAW roster before the Netflix move. She could have some excellent dream matches against the likes of Rhea Ripley and IYO SKY on The Red Brand.
#2. Becky Lynch
Becky Lynch has been on a hiatus for several months now. Her contract with WWE had expired and The Man had decided against renewing immediately. However, she is open to signing a new deal with the company before she makes her eventual return.
Royal Rumble is just a couple of months away. This would be the perfect time for The Man to make her much-anticipated comeback. Lynch could make her return during the premiere episode of Monday Night RAW on Netflix. It will be a big boost to the Women's Division on The Road to WrestleMania 41.
#1. WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg
Goldberg has announced that his retirement match will take place in WWE next year. Hence, Triple H will be looking to stitch together creative plans for the former Universal Champion's return. The premiere episode of RAW on Netflix could be the perfect stage for Goldberg to make his comeback.
With Monday Night RAW moving to Netflix, the streaming platform will likely expect the show to be stacked with some star power. Goldberg will be the perfect option to boost the viewership numbers. All signs indicate that the former WCW star could feud with Gunther in 2025, considering their intense confrontation at the Bad Blood Premium Live Event a few months ago.
It will be interesting to see what roster changes Triple H implements before RAW's move to Netflix.
