WWE Monday Night RAW is one of the longest-running and most popular weekly wrestling shows in the world. This week’s episode of RAW drew 1,353,000 viewers on the USA Network, down from the 1,704,000 viewers the show did last week. The key 18-49 demo was a 0.40 rating, down from last week’s 0.52 rating.
The show went up against Monday Night Football (Buffalo Bills vs. New York Jets) and drew over 22.6 million viewers, doing its second-lowest ratings in the show’s history. The episode featured Jey Uso & Kevin Owens vs. The Judgment Day (Damian Priest & Finn Balor), Drew McIntyre vs. Xavier Woods, Chelsea Green vs. Shayna Baszler, Alpha Academy (Chad Gable & Otis) & Tommaso Ciampa vs. Imperium (Giovanni Vinci, Gunther & Ludwig Kaiser), WWE Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley vs. Raquel Rodriguez, and more.
The low ratings for this week’s episode of RAW could be attributed to a variety of factors. The competition from Monday Night Football was likely a major factor, as well as the fact that the show has been on the air for over 25 years and viewers may be getting tired of the same format. Additionally, the lack of major stars on the show could be a factor, as WWE has been relying heavily on part-time wrestlers like Brock Lesnar and Goldberg in recent years.
Despite the low ratings this week, WWE Monday Night RAW remains one of the most popular shows in wrestling. The show has been on the air since 1993 and continues to draw millions of viewers each week. WWE has also been able to keep the show fresh by introducing new stars and storylines each week, as well as bringing in part-time wrestlers to add some star power to the show.
