It's been announced today that the first hour of both RAW and SmackDown Live will air commercial-free on Monday, December 25th, at 8/7 C and Tuesday, December 26rg, at 8/7 C. This also marks the first time that USA Network will air RAW live on Christmas Day, something you have to believe the show's Superstars probably aren't best pleased about (John Cena, included).
RAW and SmackDown Live are the #1 and #2 longest-running weekly episodic programs in U.S. primetime TV history and two of the most-watched, regularly scheduled programs on cable, airing live every Monday and Tuesday night on USA.
Averaging more viewers than any cable network in primetime, WWE programming is among the most socially active shows on TV, trending on Twitter 52 weeks per year. RAW and SmackDown Live have both aired more original episodes than some of the most popular television series of all time, including The Simpsons, Gunsmoke, Lassie and Monday Night Football.
