Following a story.
- As noted before, the May 16th WWE RAW did a 3.09 rating with 4.69 million viewers. Here’s a segment breakdown:

Kofi Kingston vs. CM Punk lost 97,000 viewers from the opener while Kelly Kelly vs. Brie Bella and Kharma’s appearance gained 333,000 viewers. There seems to be a trend of Diva segments doing well in the ratings since Kharma’s arrival.

Alberto Del Rio vs. Rey Mysterio gained 1,500 viewers, which isn’t good for the 10pm timeslot. Jerry Lawler and Michael Cole’s contract signing lost 70,000 viewers while Kane & Big Show vs. Nexus lost 165,000 more viewers.

The main event of John Cena vs. Jack Swagger and The Miz’s post-match attack gained 560,000 viewers, bringing the overrun to a 3.40. This less than usual for RAW’s overruns.
