RAW ratings down, still the top rated show on cable

Raw on Monday night going against the Grammy Awards did not set a record seasonal low, as it did 3.46 million viewers, up from the 3.37 million record low of two weeks ago.

It was still the second lowest number of the last 18 years that wasn’t a holiday or going against football.

It was down six percent from last week, but that has to be considered a good sign overall, since last week didn’t nearly the competition, and featured the Daniel Bryan retirement.  The Grammys on CBS did 24,951,000 viewers on average head-to-head.

Raw was the top rated show on cable for the night.

The three hours were:

8 p.m. 3.66 million viewers
9 p.m. 3.54 million viewers
10 p.m. 3.23 million viewers
