WWE Raw saw a dip in its total viewership against an immense NFL playoff audience on Monday.
However, it scored a slight week-on-week rise in the 18-49 demo.
As reported by Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics, Raw attracted an average audience of 1,419,000, down 3% compared to the January 8th figure of 1,464,000.
This was against a combined audience for the NFL playoff game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of 29.1 million viewers across ABC, ESPN, and ESPN2.
Except for the Christmas Day “Best of” show, the viewership was Raw’s lowest since October 30th, 2023.
Even so, Raw’s 18-49 rating rose 2% from January 8th’s 0.44 to 0.45.
Raw’s total audience and demo rating both peaked between 9.00 pm and 9.15 pm, which saw the return of Gunther to the show. This quarter-hour reached 1,581,000 viewers and an 18-49 rating of 0.50.
