WWE Tribute to the Troops Rating, Plans For RAW, SmackDown!

— Saturday’s WWE: Tribute to the Troops special drew a low 0.8 rating in the adults 18-49 demographic with 2.39 million viewers. The household rating, most commonly known as “the rating” when it comes to analysis of pro wrestling television shows, was not available at press time, but it will likely be in the 1.2-1.6 range. Neither WWE nor NBC judges the success of this particular show based on ratings, although it is always worth noting when an original program places last on a Saturday in viewership and the demo.

To the show’s credit, it built on the 0.6 demo rating for the re-airing of the “Muppet Christmas” special.

FOX’s “America’s Most Wanted” won the timeslot with 5.09 million viewers and a 1.6 rating.
