WWE RAW set another unwanted viewership record this week, with the 27 July show's third hour drawing a measly 1.46 million viewers.

This is the lowest in the former flagship show's history, beating the previous low-water mark set last week. Quarter-hour figures are yet to emerge, making it impossible to discern the hour's biggest drop-offs, though this part of the show was largely built around Sasha Banks and Asuka's RAW Women's Title match, Murphy vs. Humberto Carrillo, and Drew McIntyre vs. Dolph Ziggler.

RAW drew an average viewership of 1.62 million across its three hours. This is the second-lowest ever, down 1% from the previous week.

As far as the key 18-49 demographic goes, RAW scored its third-lowest number ever, coming through with a 0.48 rating. This is up 4% on the previous week thanks to boosted numbers in the first and second hours.

Teenagers were particularly dissatisfied with the show, with RAW posting an 88% decline in teenage girls between hours one and three and 52% in teenage boys. Both drops are unprecedented.
