WWE Bottom Line is a WWE syndicated television program which recaps events taking place on Raw. It replaced WWE's previous syndicated highlight show, LiveWire. The show was broadcast in the USA from May 24, 2002 ^[1] to September 2005 when it was removed from syndication.

Bottom Line still airs in international markets to fulfill programming commitments. It is broadcast in South Asia on TEN Sports, in Italy on GXT, in Philippines on Solar Sports, and in the Middle East on ShowSports 4.
