WWE better hope its million dollar giveaway and draft announcements revitalize the product, as the most recent RAW rating reflects a dangerous trend.
While some viewership loss could be blamed on the Memorial Day holiday, the 2.9 rating for the show is still well below any historical trend. Aside from major holiday editions of RAW, the only show to have done worse since 1997 was the October 8, 2007 show (2.8) that went against Monday Night Football and an MLB playoff game.
The show did hours of 2.87 and 2.94, with only three segments hopping the 3.0 barrier.
Joe says
It’s all because fans – young and old – could give two craps about Triple H as champion. He and Stephanie did this in the early 2000’s, too. But what can you do? Daddy is the boss and he wants to be sure that his Stephanie is happy.
It’s pathetic. I can’t believe this is a publicly traded company.
