Friday’s WWE SmackDown drew 1,042,000 viewers on Syfy, down from the prior week show’s 1,459,000 viewers. That week’s show was notable for SmackDown being preempted to Syfy due to USA Network’s commitments with the 2026 Winter Olympic Games.
It drew a 0.26 rating in the 18-49 demographic, down from the prior week show’s 0.35 rating.
Last year’s SmackDown on February 14, 2025 drew 1,384,000 viewers and a 0.42 rating on USA Network. The February 16, 2024 episode drew 2,555,000 viewers on FOX.
