This week’s episode of WWE Monday Night RAW observed a downward trend in both its ratings and viewership tally.
The episode that aired on August 19 witnessed an average viewership of around 1.641 million, marking a 13% fall from the previous week’s 1.890 million viewer count. Concurrently, there was a dip in the P18-49 key ratings demographic, where WWE RAW averaged a 0.50 rating, a substantial drop from the earlier week’s rating of 0.63.
Interestingly, WWE RAW managed to secure the second position in cable original programming ratings on Monday, only surpassed by CNN’s broadcast of the Democratic National Convention. While both RAW and the convention reported a 0.50 rating, the convention recorded marginally higher viewership in the demographic at 661,000, as compared to WWE’s 659,000.
For perspective, it’s worth noting that during the same period last year, the WWE RAW episode aired on August 21, 2023 averaged a viewership of 1.591 million and a comparable 0.50 rating.
