Netflix censorship of WWE Raw content

Overview

Following the August 3, 2026, broadcast of WWE Raw, controversy arose when Netflix edited a segment from its replay version. The omitted content featured Becky Lynch making a verbal remark regarding Women's World Champion Liv Morgan and Dominik Mysterio. While the line was heard during the live television broadcast, it was removed from the streaming platform's on-demand replay.

Reports indicate that the remark was a pre-planned part of the script and had been approved by WWE management, including Paul "Triple H" Levesque, prior to the broadcast. Despite this approval, the specific reasons for the subsequent censorship by Netflix remain unclear. This incident follows previous instances of Netflix editing or blurring WWE content, such as obscuring imagery from matches or specific clothing items, highlighting ongoing tensions regarding editorial control over live-event footage between streaming services and wrestling promotions.
