-- Going up against some stiff competition, Monday's WWE Raw audience slipped to 1.401 million viewers, down from last week's 1.578 million. In the 18-49 demo, Raw was also down, scoring a 0.42 rating down almost 20% from last week's 0.51.
-- The average viewership put yesterday's episode in the top five lowest ever but as noted, the show went up against both a Monday night NFL game and game three of the World Series. Raw finished fourth on the night in the nightly cable charts, beating every show not related to baseball or football. For those wondering about how those two sports matched up, the World Series game drew 13.64 million viewers and a 3.21 rating while the NFL game was watched by 13.34 million viewers and registered a 3.37 rating.
