WWE Smackdown Viewership Dips But Stays Above 2 Million, Rating Down

Sports reporter Jed Goodman reports that last night’s episode of WWE Smackdown was down significantly from the week before. The fast nationals show that Smackdown had 2.115 million viewers, down from last week’s preliminary (2.445 million) and final (2.569 million), respectively. Obviously that comes with a caveat. Last week featured the surprise appearance of The Rock and this week didn’t have that. And even without, the show still stayed above two million.

In 18-49, the show had an 0.58 (758,000 viewers), which is down from last week’s preliminary of 834,000 viewers in 18-49. The final rating last week was 0.70.

Fast nationals for the 38th #Smackdown of 2023: 2.115M viewers. 18-49: 758K (about a 0.58 in the 18-49 demo).
