The WWE RAW ratings and viewership figures are in for this week’s show, and Monday’s episode of WWE’s flagship brand saw their audience drop after last week’s SmackDown Live invasion. This week’s show, which featured the Under Siege fallout, the returns of many superstars and Stephanie McMahon, and a main event where Alexa Bliss successfully defended her RAW Women’s Title against Mickie James, drew 2.854 million viewers. This is down from last week’s 2.953 million viewers

It seems like fans did not really care about the Under Siege angle, or at least didn’t tune in to see the fallout from it. Plus, the fact that none of the returns (Nia Jax, Braun Strowman, Stephanie McMahon, etc.) were publicized didn’t really help in getting eyes on last night’s show. Plus, the show still lost a huge chunk of its initial audience, losing over 600,000 viewers from the first hour to the last.

The hourly breakdown this week was as follows:

First Hour: 3.102 million viewers (3.332 million viewers last week)
Second Hour: 2.943 million viewers (2.969 million viewers last week)
Third Hour: 2.517 million viewers (2.557 million viewers last week)

RAW was #6 for the night on cable in viewership, falling behind the NFL on ESPN, Rachel Maddow, Tucker Carlson, Hannity, and The Ingraham Angle. RAW was #4 in the 18-49 demographic, falling behind the NFL, Love & Hip-Hop, and SportsCenter.

Last night’s show garnered a .94 cable rating in the 18-49 demographic. This is down from last week’s 1.03 rating in the same demographic.
