Lately, Netflix has had its fair share of ups and downs. The dramas? Some of them have been downright cringe. A few are so bad, they’re unwatchable. But if you’re looking for real drama, it’s not in the shows, it’s in what’s happening with Netflix itself.
After dominating the entertainment space, Netflix is now trying to become a key player in sports streaming. Sounds ambitious, right? And honestly, it started out well. The Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight was the first big move that grabbed attention. The first few RAW events streamed smoothly. Fans liked what they saw.
But now? We’re back to square one.
The lag is real, and frustrating. Viewers are complaining about black screens, buffering, and choppy streams. And it’s not just limited to sports. Even while watching regular shows and movies, some users are facing the same issues.
And that’s not all.
Fans tuning in to watch WWE RAW or SmackDown have noticed something strange, important segments are being chopped off. Why? Because of random ads. Sure, ads during live sports are expected. But when they cut into the actual action? That’s a dealbreaker.
So now you’ve got lag and badly-timed ads, on a platform that charges 18 dollars a month. That’s a hard pill to swallow.
Netflix might be aiming high with sports and entertainment, but if the experience continues like this, fans are going to start wondering if it’s even worth tuning in.
