4/6 WWE Raw Viewership Info: Did the Triple Threat Main Event Help the Show Maintain its Big Post-PPV Number?

wwe raw viewershipAccording to Show Buzz Daily, last night’s edition of WWE Raw took in an average audience of 3.964 million viewers. This is down 26% from last week’s post-PPV edition of the show, which took in 5.364 million viewers.

The hourly numbers are as follows:

Hour 1: 4.300 million viewers

Hour 2: 4.039 million viewers

Hour 3: 3.552 million viewers

The steep drop was to be expected, in my opinion. WWE was up against the NCAA Championship game, and did not have the benefit of being preceded by WrestleMania the night before. Smart fans, and likely some casual fans, knew the Lesnar “suspension” was to get him off TV for awhile, so knowing Lesnar wouldn’t be on Raw probably hurt the Raw viewership as well.
