This Week’s WWE SmackDown Live! Rating Drops, WWE Stock

— WWE’s stock closed at $20.37 on Wednesday, up $0.04 (0.2%) and steady in after-hours trading.

— Much like RAW (and every other show on television for that matter), SmackDown was a victim of the Olympics this week. Tuesday night’s episode brought in a 0.81 rating in the 18 – 49 demographic and 2.455 million viewers, down 13% and 8% from last week’s 0.93 and 2.681 million. The numbers are the lowest of the USA Network era of SmackDown thus far but still top all the show’s SyFy numbers since WrestleMania.

SmackDown ranked #2 among cable originals for the night behind OWN’s The Have and Have Nots (0.85 demo rating, 2.885 million viewers).
