Friday’s WWE SmackDown drew 2,054,000 viewers on FOX, up from the previous week’s 2,050,000 viewers. That week’s show was notable for being a taped and not a live show due to it taking place in Berlin, Germany and the six-hour time zone difference with the United States.
It drew a 0.53 rating in the 18-49 demographic, down from the previous week’s 0.56 rating.
