Another episode of Raw on Netflix, another tour of the arena to reveal a bunch of celebrities sitting front row to watch the action, many of whom just happen to have a show on Netflix at the moment.

It’s clear that this is going to be the norm going forward, with musicians, artists, actors, and athletes being acknowledged and taking up programming time. While it really isn’t much screentime, with Raw now being truncated by a half-hour, spending three or four minutes panning the audience and giving a rundown of the dozen minor (and some major) celebrities in attendance means one fewer segment involving the actual wrestlers who work for WWE.

And really, is anyone tuning in because Rich the Kid or Macaulay Culkin is sitting front row? At least Culkin pulled off another good “reveal” from his seat.
