Raw 1.753m/.47. 8% drop in 18-49. Definitely hit by the news.
 
NXT 551k/.13. Not as bad considering. 70th on the night in cable
 
Remember when wrestling shows started dipping below 4 consistently and it was the end of the world? It's sad that the ratings across all promotions are this low now in comparison. I recognize the power of streaming and DVR though. That certainly factors in.

The TV landscape drastically changed though.

There are now hundreds of tv channels + streaming options. People do not listen live anymore. They DVR or listen on a streaming platform after.

Ratings are useful for TV contracts, but I would guess that it is not the primary metric AEW and WWE look at. Especially not WWE.

Smackdown 2.147m/.58

Rampage 398k/.13 with pre-emption to 11:48 EDT
 
Not a bad number all things considered.

What was the number for last years WM go-home show?
1.7M/.52, both of which were down, but it was also the final of the NCAA tournament.


Dynamite last night 979k/.38
 
Raw 2.101m/.63

Highest total since January 4, 2021
Highest demo since August 23
 
NXT 631k/.14. This is not what they were looking for coming off Wrestlemania and a TV title change on Raw.
