The WWE RAW viewership numbers are in.

Monday’s edition of WWE RAW averaged 2.385 million viewers in Oklahoma City, OK at the Chesapeake Energy Arena on the USA Network, which is down from 2.439 million viewers the previous week.

Here is the hourly viewership breakdown, courtesy of ShowbuzzDaily:

  • Hour 1: 2.550 million – Last Week: 2.525
  • Hour 2: 2.409 million – Last Week: 2.464
  • Hour 3: 2.195 million – Last Week: 2.328

The episode was expected to increase in its viewership from last week. The reason for that is due to the company building up two championship matches as well as an appearance by WWE Champion Brock Lesnar alongside Paul Heyman.

Here is the hourly 18-49 demos breakdown:

  • Hour 1: 0.78 – Last Week: 0.80
  • Hour 2: 0.75 – Last Week: 0.78
  • Hour 3: 0.70 – Last Week: 0.72

The biggest competition that WWE RAW faced came in the way of a college football game on ESPN that did 1.446 million viewers.

Some of the matches that took place include WWE United States Champion Andrade (w/Zelina Vega) vs. Rey Mysterio, RAW Tag Team Champions The Viking Raiders (Erik & Ivar) vs. The OC (Karl Anderson & Luke Gallows) vs. The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford), AJ Styles vs. Akira Tozawa, Drew McIntyre vs. No Way Jose, Aleister Black vs. Shelton Benjamin, and Kevin Owens, Samoa Joe & The Big Show vs. AOP & Seth Rollins (Akam & Rezar) in the main event.

There was also a segment with Lana and Bobby Lashley to make their marriage “official” that also set up Lashley vs. Rusev for next week.

WWE will attempt to increase its viewership for RAW next week but it won’t be an easy task due to the competition that the show will face. RAW will be going up the NCAA National Football Championship game on ESPN that is expected to draw big ratings.
