Ratings for the three-hour edition of WWE RAW were up week-to-week, although the performance was not as glowing as some might have expected.<\/p>\n
Over the three hours, RAW averaged a 1.9 adults 18-49 rating with 4.7 million viewers. Hour one scored a 1.7 and 4.3 million viewers, while hours two and three posted a 2.0 with 5.0 million and 4.9 million, respectively.<\/p>\n
A further breakdown from USA Network’s Ted on TV reveals that RAW attracted 2.1 million in the young adults 18-49 demo at 8PM (the best 8PM RAW performance since June 2009), 2.55 million at 9PM (the best in the hour since May) and 2.6 million at 10PM (the best since April).<\/p>\n
Still, with The Rock and Mick Foley both on the show, the numbers were far from extraordinary. While impressive performances in their key quarter hours (the “This is Your Life” segment and the overrun) would slightly vindicate the stars, they are not there simply to show off their own drawing ability–they are there to attract eyeballs to the entirety of the RAW broadcast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\n
