For the past month, RAW has started at 7PM Eastern in an effort to figure out the best time to combat Monday Night Football. Unfortunately this will not be the case moving forward, but for logical reasons.

On October 6, 20, 27 Raw will move to 8PM Eastern.
  • October 6 RAW is in Dallas, which is in Central Time. If the show started at 7PM Eastern it would be 6PM Central for the live audience, which is cutting it close for people getting to the arena on time after work.
  • October 20 and 27 are in Sacramento and Anaheim, both in Pacific Time. A 7PM Eastern start would mean 4PM for the live audience. That's not at all possible.

On October 13, Raw will air live at 8AM Eastern as the show will be from Perth, Australia, which is 12 hours ahead of Eastern time, meaning a local start time of 8PM.

When November comes RAW will be in Boston, Mass and New York, New York. The start time is unknown for these shows yet.
