WWE Raw - pro-wrestling's most popular weekly show - will only be available on Netflix from next year.

The programme has been shown on broadcast TV around the world for 31 years as bosses of TKO - the company formed when WWE merged with UFC - have announced that Raw will be exclusive to streaming from next January.

WWE President, Nick Khan says they believe Netflix, as one of the world's leading entertainment brands, is the ideal long-term home for Raw's live, loyal, and ever-growing fan base.

The company also announced that superstar wrestler-turned-actor Dwayne Johnson had joined TKO as a director.

As part of that arrangement, he is now the owner of The Rock trademark.

Johnson says being on the TKO Board of Directors, and taking full ownership of his name, 'The Rock', is not only unprecedented, but incredibly inspiring as his crazy life is coming full circle.

His announcement has reignited rumours of a return to the ring after a surprise appearance on Raw earlier this month.

Viewers outside the US will also be able to watch all weekly WWE shows and live events on the service.

The company said that would include pay-per-view specials including WrestleMania, SummerSlam and Royal Rumble.
