— According to sources, WWE’s idea now is to try and work more women onto the ‘205 Live’ show as a way to boost interest in the show.
— Here are the top 10 most watched (via VOD viewership) WWE Network shows for this past week…
1. WWE Extreme Rules
2. WWE Extreme Rules post-show
3. WWE Extreme Rules pre-show
4. WWE Table for 3 with Bruno Sammartino, Ric Flair and Randy Orton
5. WWE Table for 3 with Eric Bischoff, Michael Hayes and Jim Cornette
6. WWE Music Power 10 Orlando (a show about the ring entrances at WrestleMania)
7. WWE NXT from 5/31
8. WWE Backlash 2017
9. WWE WrestleMania 2017
10. WWE 24 Finn Balor
* Other Notes: The 5/24 NXT show beat out the 5/30 205 Live show (which was 19th place for the week) as well as the 5/30 Talking Smack (which was 20th place) for the week. Also beating out the 5/30 205 Live show and the 5/30 Talking Smack were Payback 2017, Royal Rumble 2017, a weeks old episode of Table for 3 with Styles, Shawn Michaels and Nash, the Takeover Chicago event, another weeks old Table for 3 with Edge, Christian and Angle and one episode of the Monday Night Wars series from years ago.
