WWE Raw Viewership Posts Massive Gains Following SummerSlam PPV


-- Last night's WWE Raw climbed significantly in viewership, generating 2.729 million viewers up from last week's 2.473 million - a 10% increase. On the night, Raw was third overall in total viewership and #1, #2 and #3 in the 18-49 demographic. The 2018 edition of Raw at this time drew 2.8 million viewers and in 2017, it was watched by 3.2 million.

-- While these numbers are a nice increase due to SummerSlam, the ratings pattern of the last couple of weeks with hour three retaining or even beating hour one didn't carry over to Monday. There was a gradual decrease of viewership throughout the 180 minute show:
* Hour One - 2.820 million
* Hour Two - 2.772 million
* Hour Three - 2.595 million
