— Last night’s WWE Raw was up in viewership from the week before, generating an average audience of 3.350 million compared to 3.073 million for the 3/5 edition. It was the most watched Raw since the day after Royal Rumble.
— Despite no Ronda Rousey or Brock Lesnar, the third hour of the show held up incredibly well, which can be attributed to people sticking around hoping for one of them to appear though the effect of the daylight savings time change could also be a factor. It should also be noted that last night’s overrun was only three minutes, well short of the usual 6-15 minutes that Raw usually runs over. The exact hours were:
-
Hour One – 3.351 million
Hour Two – 3.429 million
Hour Three – 3.275 million
— On the night, Raw finished was #1, #2, and #3 in the 18-49 demo rating and was also first on the night on cable for total viewership. All in all, it was an excellent night for the company.
