WWE Raw Rating UP This Week
Viewership increased for second hour.
This week's episode of Monday Night Raw, which saw Shayna Baszler go all Freddie Blassie on Becky Lynch thanks to a bizarre vampiric attack, ended the night with an average viewership of 2.337 million, according to Showbuzz Daily.
The number is an improvement on last Monday's watch figure of 2.168 million. The show peaked in the second hour, drawing 2.411 million sets of eyes, during which Angel Garza beat Cedric Alexander, and the WrestleMania 36 bound Drew McIntyre was a guest on MVP's VIP Lounge. As ever, viewership dropped for the third hour, bottoming out at 2.204 million.
This marks the first time since 26 August that Raw has seen growth from hour one to hour two.
Overall, Raw finished 8th on cable, though for the fourth week in succession topped the 18-49 demographic, with a rating of 0.80. Hannity was the night's highest drawing show on cable, attracting 4.417 million viewers.
Elsewhere on the show, Seth Rollins, Murphy & The AOP beat Kevin Owens, Samoa Joe & The Viking Raiders, whilst Becky Lynch retained her Raw Women's Championship against Asuka, before the aforementioned biting incident.
