Average WWE Raw and Smackdown Viewership Info

According to The Wrestling Observer, WWE Raw averaged a 3.02 rating with 4.23 million viewers for the month of March 2015. This is down 2.6% in ratings and 2.1% in viewers from March 2014.

With the Raw after WrestleMania in March instead of April like last year, the number is a bit misleading. With the numbers adjusted, you would have an average of a 2.86 rating with 3.94 million viewer in March, or a 7.7% drop in ratings and a 8.8% drop in viewers from March 2014’s 3.10 rating average and 4.32 million viewers. Raw averaged a 3.29 rating and 4.67 million viewers in March 2013.

Smackdown in March 2015 averaged a 1.89 rating with 2.59 million viewers, down from March 2014’s average of 2.03 rating with 2.88 million viewers. Smackdown averaged a 2.00 rating with 2.78 million viewers in March 2013. Smackdown has the advantage of being on Thursday nights this year.
