Monday’s Raw brought in an average of 2,994,000 viewers, up from last week’s year-low of 2,613,000 and Raw’s highest rating in 6 weeks. It was the Raw after a PPV (Extreme Rules), but still wasn’t able to get back up over the 3 million mark. The episode of Raw itself actually seemed relatively good and it seemed like the Raw writers “actually tried” to create and advance interesting storylines rather than just putting on meaningless throwaway matches.
Raw’s main sports competition was the NHL Stanley Cup Finals on NBC, which did 5,656,000 viewers.
Hourly breakdown:
8PM: 3,113,000
9PM: 3,110,000
10PM: 2,758,000
