Why is 'Raw' on Syfy?

WWE Raw is temporarily moving over to the Syfy network because the USA Network is going to busy with its summer Olympics coverage. (For reference, the 2024 Summer Olympic Games are scheduled to air between July 26 to Aug. 11.)

So what does this all mean exactly for Raw viewers? Well, you can expect both the July 29 episode (i.e., the final Raw before SummerSlam, airing live from St. Paul, Minn.) and the Aug. 5 episode (i.e., the SummerSlam fallout, airing live from Baltimore, Md.) to air on the Syfy channel.

By the Aug. 12 episode (airing live from Austin, Texas), you can expect to find Raw in its usual spot on the USA Network.

And just in case you were wondering, if you were to tune into USA Network for the next couple of weeks expecting to see WWE Raw, you'll instead find equestrian jumping and women's cycling. (Listen, that doesn't sound bad either, honestly.)

So plan accordingly, folks! If any of this seems familiar, by the way, it's because this isn't the first time Syfy has become temporary home to WWE Raw thanks to Olympics games coverage. So, in the future, if you're ever confused why you're seeing the women's team sprint in cycling instead of a Raw match, just try to remember if it's an Olympics year.
