Tuesday’s SmackDown, which was taped in London a few hours earlier, brought in 2,348,000 viewers. That is slightly up from last week’s 2,300,000 viewers, which was the lowest of 2017, but is still easily the second lowest of 2017.
The highest viewed cable show of the night was the NBA playoffs game between Houston and San Antonio, which did 4,713,000 viewers.
Though still a relatively low audience, I guess it’s at least good for WWE that SmackDown actually went up, unlike Raw, which had a terrible drop this week with 2,696,000 viewers (down from 2,871,000 the week before). It looks like SmackDown Live could actually end up surpassing Raw for the first time soon, if the current trend continues.
