WWE French Commentary Now Live on Netflix Canada
WWE French Commentary Now Live on Netflix Canada
Canadian wrestling fans have a new way to experience WWE action: live French commentary from Pat Laprade and Kevin Raphael is now available on Netflix. The partnership, announced on September 8, brings the duo’s bilingual coverage to the streaming platform’s live broadcast window, covering all major WWE shows—Raw, NXT, SmackDown—and premium live events.
What This Means for Canadian Viewers
Previously, French commentary was limited to select broadcasts and on-demand content. With Netflix’s live streaming, fans can now tune in to the same commentary that airs in the United States, but in French. This move is part of WWE’s broader strategy to expand its global reach and cater to diverse audiences.
Pat Laprade’s Role in the Transition
Pat Laprade, a veteran French-language commentator, confirmed the change during a recent interview. He highlighted that the partnership allows the commentary team to reach a wider audience and maintain consistency across platforms. Laprade noted that the team had already been working on the logistics of delivering live French commentary to the Canadian market.

How to Access the New Feature

Why This Matters for WWE’s Canadian Audience
Language accessibility is a key factor in fan engagement. By providing live French commentary, WWE acknowledges the linguistic diversity of its Canadian fan base and strengthens its connection with French-speaking viewers. This initiative also positions WWE as a more inclusive brand in the North American market.
