Viewership data for Monday’s 12/3 edition of WWE RAW and the show lost almost a half million viewers from last week.

This week’s RAW averaged 3,437,000 viewers with the following hourly numbers:

Hour 1: 3,580,000
Hour 2: 3,370,000
Hour 3: 3,360,000

RAW’s overall viewership and the show’s final hour were the lowest they’ve been since RAW expanded to 3 hours on a weekly basis back in July.

NFL Monday Night Football on ESPN had over 16 million viewers this week, way up from last week’s 11 million viewers.

RAW’s best hour (Hour 1) ranked #8 on cable for the evening.

WWE doesn't care about weekly ratings. Vince isn't Eric Bischoff. He has his business model, and it works. Things will pick up when they always pick up. Leading up to the Rumble.

what's the rating?

I'm not entirely sure how the ratings work, but I believe it was a 3.2 for the whole 3 hours.

Is there anyway of telling how these would translate against a two hour RAW yet?

3.2? that's way too good to be true. I think it's around 2.7 or something.

A 3.2 is a good rating for a 3 hour RAW. Like Hoss said a 2.7 or possibly a 2.6 is more likely if it was the supposed "worst rated" 3 hour RAW yet.

Two weeks ago, it drew an average of 3.8m and got a 2.72 rating.
Are these determined on a set way, or does it change week by week depending on things? If so, looks like it's gonna be like a 2.6?

As noted earlier, Monday’s RAW had just 3.44 million million viewers. The show did a 2.55 overall rating, down from last week’s 2.72. This was the lowest number for RAW in nearly 15 years for a non-holiday show.

2.55. FUCKING HELL.

I don't think WWE ever wanted 3 hours. They would probably change back for next week if they could. It's the network wanting them to be on 3 hours.
