WWE Raw Falls To All-Time Low 18-49 Rating
A bad week for WWE Raw ratings across the board.
WWE Raw slumped to a new low in the key 18-49 demographic this week.
As originally reported by Wrestlenomics' Brandon Thurston, Raw's 6 December episode attracted an average of 1.599 million viewers across its three hours. Here's how that P2+ viewership breaks down:-
Hour one: 1.669 million viewers
Hour two: 1.636 million viewers
Hour three: 1.494 million viewers
As far as the P18-49 demo goes, Raw scored 462,000 viewers for a rating of just 0.35. Because of this, Raw's three hours finished eighth, ninth, and tenth on the night amongst original cable telecasts.
This outdoes the previous all-time low recorded on 18 October 2021, when Raw drew 514,000 viewers in the demographic for a rating of 0.39.
Raw faced heavy NFL competition this week, going head-to-head with a New England Patriots vs. Buffalo Bills game that drew monstrous numbers on ESPN and ESPN2, pulling in a total of 14.91 million viewers and a P18-49 rating of 4.49. This will have had a massive impact on WWE's ratings, as is often the case during the football season.
Despite the 18-49 slump, Raw's overall viewership was only the ninth-lowest in recorded history.
