Kofi Kingston, Daniel Bryan, and Roman Reigns came over from SmackDown last night. Each is great in their own way, and, at worst, they're three of the blue brand's five biggest stars (throwing Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair into the mix), but last week's SD drew an average of just 1.83 million viewers last week. Raw's numbers? 2.15 million.

Vince McMahon's solution for Raw's sliding viewership was to pull stars from a brand with even worse numbers.
