You might not believe it, but the long awaited missing RAW episode has finally hit the WWE Network. The episode in question is RAW 141, which aired on January 1st 1996. The episode is the infamous RAW Bowl, and while not considered to be a strong episode in terms of content, has been long awaited by fans due to the whole it left in the chronological order of the episodes.
So why was it gone this entire time? Most pointed to copyright reasons. Clearly, references to the Superbowl can be difficult in terms of legalities, so edits likely had to be made. And obviously, the WWE in 1996 never really imagined they would need to worry about every episode of RAW appearing on an Internet streaming service in 2016.
This means that by the WWE’s episode count, every single official episode of WWE RAW is now available on the WWE Network from the debut episode in 1993 up to and including the the most recent RAW available on a 30 day delay. That is well over two decades of RAW episodes available for your viewing pleasure.
