Since RAW’s return to the USA Network, the number of WWE fans tuning in on Monday nights is on the rise. This past Monday night, RAW scored a 4.5 overall rating, the highest since returning home in October. The final segment featuring Edge & Chris Masters vs. John Cena & Ric Flair was the highest rated quarter-hour, scoring a 5.0 rating. In fact, since Edge won the WWE Championship at New Year’s Revolution, RAW has seen three of its top five overall ratings numbers since WWE Homecoming.

In addition to the overall success, RAW is a winner for USA in several key demographics. Among males ages 12-17, RAW has been the No. 1 rated program for seven of the last eight weeks. Also, RAW continues to see weekly increases in the key demographics of males 18-34, persons 18-34, males 25-34 and persons 25-34. The numbers prove that the tag team of RAW and the USA Network is certainly a ratings success.

Well this is once again a good rating for the WWE, and it proves that since Edge has won the WWE Title from John Cena at New Years Revolution that Raw fans have tuned in more, and furthermore this should result in Edge not losing the WWE Title to Cena at the Royal Rumble Sunday Night
