WWE Raw Ratings 10-5: Numbers remain the same
Raw last night did 3.37 million viewers, slightly up from the 3.32 million viewers last week. Last week was the lowest non-holiday rating for Raw since October of 1997 when there was head-to-head competition from Nitro. All five shows since Labor Day have done between 3.32 million and 3.4 million viewers, so if nothing else, the audience is consistent.
The big competition, a Monday Night Football game between the Seattle Seahawks and Detroit Lions, drew 14.40 million viewers which was up from the prior week of 13.52 million viewers.
The three hours were:
8 p.m. 3.47 million viewers
9 p.m. 3.49 million viewers
10 p.m. 3.17 million viewers
