This week’s Raw saw some of the biggest stories of the year unfold and it both started and ended with different members of the Shield making unexpected moves.

The show featuring Roman Reigns’ announcement and Dean Ambrose’s heel turn saw an increase in the audience too as it drew 2.548 million viewers which is up 6.3% from last week’s episode of the show.

The emotional opening segment, which saw Roman relinquishing the Universal Championship appears to have helped the second hour of the show as it saw an unusual increase in audience.

The first hour drew 2.609 million viewers and then the second hour saw a slight increase, scoring 2.622 million viewers. The third hour, however, then saw a decrease and it brought 2.413 million viewers.

For comparison, last week’s Raw episode had drawn 2.490 million viewers in the first hour, 2.482 million viewers in the second hour and 2.216 million viewers in the final hour of the show.

This increase helped Raw in beating the rating of past several weeks and this episode did the best ratings since the post Hell In A Cell episode of the Red Branded Show in mid-September.

With Dean Ambrose’s shocking heel turn at the end of the episode, it’d be interesting to see how next week’s episode does in ratings and how many people tune in to watch the follow up of these events.

Its sad that we have got to the point where it is unusual for the second hour to go up. Thats the way its supposed to be and the way it was every week in the attitude era. Thats literally why raw has an over run. The last segment was always the highest for the whole show.
