— Thursday night’s episode of WWE SmackDown reversed course from last week’s drop, up in both viewership and ratings. The show scored 2.575 million viewers and a 0.66 rating in the 18 – 49 demographic, up 10% and 3% from last week’s 2.338 million and 0.64 demo rating
The show benefited from the fact that there was no NBA playoff game last night. The numbers were still below the 2.642 million and 0.72 demo rating that the episode two weeks ago garnered.

* Bayley vs. Jessie McKay
