It’s fair to say that WWE’s big bow on Netflix on January 6 has been nothing short of a colossal success.WWE Raw, which made its long awaited debut on the streaming platform last Monday has been watched by over 6 million people now, and the night was full of memorable moments that included legends likeThe Rock, John Cena, The Undertaker, Roman Reigns,CM Punkand a lot, lot more. But it wasn’t just the stars that impressed. The venue — the state of the art Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, California — was also a star of the show, and WWE has just dropped a stunning video (via Fly By Chicago) which showcases the stunning scenes on show via incredible drone footage.
The drone flew around all night and captured some ofthe night’s most iconic moments, from the crowds gathering before the show, the crowning of Ripley as the new WWE Women’s World Champion, the entrance of the Tribal Chief Roman Reigns, the explosive entrance featuringJey Uso, Pat McAfee, Michael Cole, Travis Scott,and what appeared to be a small, herbal cigarette, no doubt used for pain relief by the musician. The event will live long in the memory for the WWE Universe, and the stunning footage is another great reminder of the magic that WWE is capable of producing when it’s all hands on deck.
