— Friday’s episode of WWE SmackDown scored 2.56 million
viewers and a 0.7 rating in the 18 – 49 demographic. The viewership
was down 3% from last week’s 2.64 million while the demo rating was steady for
the fourth week in a row.
The viewership was the lowest the show has been since the July 11th show drew
2.54 million but the show was still the second-highest rated cable original show
of the night, losing out to Discovery’s Megalodon: New Evidence. The household
rating will be available later.
