With the NBA Playoffs dominating cable on Monday, RAW once again ranked fourth, fifth, and sixth overall in the key demographic among cable originals on Monday. With hour number two taking the top spot for the evening.
This week’s episode opened with The Bloodline from SmackDown cutting a promo regarding WrestleMania Backlash. RK-Bro ended up attacking The Usos and Drew McIntyre got his hands on Roman Reigns. It was eventually broken up by WWE staff and had no continuation throughout the rest of the evening. The main event was a six-woman tag team match that featured Asuka, Liv Morgan, and RAW Women’s Champion Bianca Belair defeating Becky Lynch, Rhea Ripley, and Sonya Deville.
