WWE is fully leaning into the Netflix crossover — and now fans are being pulled directly into the spectacle.

Ahead of the January 5 edition of Monday Night Raw, WWE has officially asked fans attending the show in Brooklyn to show up dressed in Stranger Things-inspired outfits. The request comes as part of an announced collaboration between WWE and Netflix, with Raw branding the night as “Stranger Things Night.”

The themed episode will also serve as the one-year anniversary of Raw streaming on Netflix, following its historic move to the platform in January 2025.

WWE shared the call-to-action on social media alongside a Stranger Things-styled promotional poster for the night’s main event — CM Punk vs. Bron Breakker — and made it clear they want the crowd involved.

“This Monday, #WWERaw enters the Upside Down… and we want you to bring your best #StrangerThings looks to Brooklyn 👀”

The company didn’t stop there, urging fans to bring the full atmosphere with them inside Barclays Center. WWE wrapped up the message by confirming where the celebration will take place and reinforcing the theme for the night.

“Bring the energy. Bring the nostalgia. Bring the noise. “We’ll see you and your #StrangerThings inspired ‘fits this Monday at @barclayscenter!”

The January 5 episode is positioned as a major milestone for the company, marking one year since Raw debuted on Netflix with the January 6, 2025 episode — a move that reshaped WWE’s weekly television presence.

With WWE actively encouraging fans to dress up and play along, the company appears to be aiming for a visual-heavy, crowd-driven atmosphere to celebrate both Raw’s Netflix era and its partnership with one of streaming’s biggest brands.
