Jacob Fatu | WWE Raw

Following the high of the post-WrestleMania 42 edition, last week’s WWE Raw on Netflix was down in viewers and global hours viewed for the second straight week.

Released by Netflix on Tuesday, the Monday, May 4 edition brought in 2.7 million global views and 4.6 million global hours viewed. It was the go-home edition before last weekend’s Backlash PLE that featured Roman Reigns and Jacob Fatu in the main event.

The views are down 100,000 from last week and the lowest since February 16 while the hours viewed are their lowest since January 19. (Note that the January 26 show did not have reported numbers as it was out of the top ten).

The episode finished seventh globally, 400,000 behind sixth and 200,000 behind eighth. It finished in the top ten in 21 countries and eighth in the U.S.

The listed runtime was 1:36, shorter than in recent weeks.

The leader for the week was Man on Fire with 12.6 million global views and 70.2 million global hours viewed.

On the Hulk Hogan: Real American docuseries front, it dropped out of the global top ten after two weeks.
