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.
