-- The NFL returned to Monday nights yesterday with a much anticipated Jets/Bills game taking center stage which would expected to do a number on WWE Raw's audience. The damage was significant, with the NFL game drawing a massive 22.6 million viewers across ABC, ESPN and ESPN2 - the best Monday Night Football audience in years. Predictably, Raw tumbled all the way down to an average viewership of 1.353 million - the lowest audience in history if you ignore a "Best Of" show on Boxing Day of last year.
-- In the 18-40 demographic, Raw also suffered, falling to a 0.40 rating, which would be a yearly low. Hourly figures saw the first hour draw 1.37 million viewers, the second 1.40 million and the third dipping to 1.29 million bottoming out with only 1.25 million for the main event - another all-time low.
