It was recently revealed that WWE Raw would be moving to two hours in October, in advance of the switch over to Netflix in January 2025.
While it has yet to be confirmed what will become of Raw’s run time come the Netflix move, a new report notes that SmackDown will move to three hours in 2025.

According to WrestleVotes Radio:
“Before we move off of SmackDown, our first real WrestleVotes tidbit here, as we get going on this Backstage Pass regarding SmackDown, is that we have learned that starting on the January 3 show 2025, SmackDown will indeed shift to three hours.
“The other big news here is there are rumors that once the show ends, it will be available on Netflix, which we haven’t heard elsewhere.
“Those are the internal talkings right now is that probably the day after Smackdown will be available on Netflix.
“But the real nugget here is that starting January 3, that show will be three hours.”

Recently, the day-after streaming partnership between WWE and Hulu expired ahead of the upcoming switch from Fox to USA Network for the Friday night show.
