WWE Relieved To Be Going Back To USA Network Next Week; Why They Pushed Last Night's Raw

-- WWE Raw has been airing on Syfy the last two weeks due to USA's coverage of the 2024 Olympic Games and as expected viewership has been negatively affected with the move. PWInsiderelite.com reports that internally WWE is said to be "relieved and happy" to be back on USA from next week. While they were understanding of the move and were okay with it in order to be a good partner for NBC, the company also realized that the timing was unfortunate as the change occurred right around SummerSlam and the audience dip was not something they were thrilled with coming off the event.

-- For yesterday's episode, WWE did relatively more media pushes than usual building around the in-ring debut of the Wyatt Sicks while also pushing that it was happening in Baltimore - the same place the Wyatt Family originally debuted on the main roster. When things go back to normal next week, WWE is said to be not worried at all about their audience figures going back to their usual figures but decided this week to push Raw a little harder to try and help those numbers.
