Friday's WWE Smackdown audience barely cracked a million, drawing 1,025,000 viewers down marginally from 1,030,000 from the week prior. Throwing out shows that aired on FS1 or were year-end review type specials, that would be the least watched Smackdown in history. As noted before, with Nielsen using a different method to calculate viewership, wrestling shows have been hit particularly hard.
On the heels of what appears to be a legitimate and serious shoulder injury, WWE has pulled Seth Rollins off of the upcoming tour in Japan.
Rey Mysterio continues to work towards a return after undergoing surgery for a torn groin. He has been spotted working at the WWE Performance Center this week, according to pwinsiderelite.com.
