Raw on Monday night did 1.83 million viewers and a 0.49 in 18-34.
The 18-49 number was one of the lowest of the year, and lowest since going against the NBA finals. But overall I'd consider the number very good given it was part of a holiday weekend.
The total viewer number considering the night I would call very strong, and the 18-49 number would be around what you should have expected.
It was only down seven percent in viewers from the strong mark the week before, but was down 20 percent in 18-49 and 26 percent in 18-34.
A comparison with one year ago isn't really fair because the show aired on July 4th, traditionally the hardest day of the year to draw for wrestling except for Christmas Eve.
It was up 17 percent in viewers, up 30 percent in 18-49 and up 32 percent in 18-34 from that show.
The chart for the night isn't out at press time and the placings will be delayed going forward. Full details will be available in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
The only real note is that the audience stayed steady for most of the show, meaning the people who were home and watched largely stuck with the show.
The three hours were:
- 8 p.m. 1.85 million viewers
- 9 p.m. 1.84 million viewers
- 10 p.m. 1.79 million viewers
