WWE Vice President Line Producer Brian Fadem revealed to the Sports Business Journal that Raw will not have commercials for those watching internationally.
He also said that the usual 15 commercial breaks typically reserved for cable television for a three-hour show will be reduced.
“While you might go to commercials if you’re in Texas, if you’re in Italy you’re going to see us continue content,” said Fadem. “You’re going to see the continuation of a match. You’re going to see exclusive interviews with our talent. You might see an exclusive package that will only be viewed on that international level.”
The way WWE will handle commercials for Raw has been a talking point for months and international viewers not getting commercials makes sense since commercials in the United States do not apply for international viewers.
