Netflix’s Bela Bajaria Remains Bullish on Live Despite Tyson/Paul Hiccups, Says They’re Ready for the NFL — And More to Come In Global Territories
Netflix's Bela Bajaria said they're ready for the NFL, WWE Raw and more live events in other countries despite issues during the Tyon/Paul fight.
As Netflix expands its live output in a big way over the next few months, chief content officer Bela Bajaria said she wasn’t concerned about last weekend’s buffering hiccups during the Mike Tyson/Jake Paul fight. Speaking with reporters on Monday morning during Netflix’s International Showcase (more on that in a moment), Bajaria said the streamer felt “very ready” for its next big live event: Two NFL games on Christmas Day (including Beyoncé performing the halftime show during the second matchup, Houston v. Baltimore). Bajaria and her team also highlighted additional upcoming projects including Italy’s “The Leopard,” Colombia’s “One Hundred Years of Solitude,” Brazil’s “Senna,” Japan’s “Last Samurai Standing,” Spain’s “Alcaraz” and the Season 2 return of Korea’s megahit “Squid Game.”
