how long is raw

“Raw” can mean different things, but in trending forum and search context, “how long is RAW” almost always refers to WWE Monday Night Raw, the weekly wrestling TV show, which runs for about three hours per episode (a 3‑hour time slot on TV, including commercials).

However, since your title is very short, here are the main possibilities people usually mean by “how long is raw”:

1. WWE Monday Night Raw (most common meaning)

When people on forums ask “how long is Raw?”, they are usually talking about the WWE show.

  • Modern Monday Night Raw is scheduled as a 3‑hour program on TV.
  • Within those 3 hours, a significant chunk is commercials, recaps, and promos, so actual bell‑to‑bell match time is closer to around an hour to a bit over an hour, depending on the episode.
  • Some streaming versions (like edited replays) cut it down to roughly 90 minutes by trimming recaps and filler segments.

Think of it as: “3 hours on the TV schedule, but much less actual wrestling once you remove ads and recaps.”

2. If you meant “raw” as a general word

If you weren’t asking about WWE and instead meant “raw” literally:

  • “Raw” usually means not cooked (raw food), or in a natural, untreated state (raw materials, raw milk, raw data).
  • It can also describe painful or unprotected things, like “raw skin,” “raw emotions,” or “raw feelings.”

These meanings don’t really have a “length,” so in that case the question “how long is raw?” would just be incomplete and would need more context. If you tell me whether you meant WWE Monday Night Raw, a movie/series, or the general word “raw,” I can tailor the answer more tightly to what you’re writing this post about.
