WWE Smackdown Rating Inches Up

– Smackdown saw minor rises in both ratings and viewership this week, though it wasn’t enough to overtake Raw like some believed it could. Tuesday’s episode brought in a 0.74 rating and 2.34 million viewers, up 1% and 2% from last week’s 0.73 demo rating and 2.292 million viewers. The numbers are still below all the previous airings since the show moved to airing live on USA, and was close to (but still below) Raw’s 0.83 and 2.478 million viewers.

Smackdown ranked #1 for the night among cable originals, beating out OWN’s Chrisley Knows Best (0.67 demo rating, 1.830 million viewers).
