Well now, if you’re like me and you keep an eye on all them TV shows, you probably heard folks talkin’ about them WWE Raw ratings. Seems like every week, folks are glued to the screen, watchin’ all the wrestlers throwin’ punches and takin’ names. But, it ain’t just about the action in the ring. No, no, it’s also about how many people are watchin’, and let me tell ya, them numbers matter a lot when it comes to these big shows.
So, let’s start with the most recent numbers. Back on November 4th, 2024, WWE Raw had a good ol’ crowd of 1,465,000 folks sittin’ in front of their TVs, watchin’ it all go down. That’s a little bit more than the week before, where only 1,401,000 people tuned in. Ain’t too shabby, huh? And what’s even better is the 18-49 crowd – you know, folks in their prime who like all the action – their rating went up too, from 0.42 to 0.48. That’s a nice little boost, right there.
But if you think that’s somethin’, hold on, ‘cause things are lookin’ even brighter when you look at the bigger picture. Over the last few weeks, WWE Raw’s been seein’ a steady rise in viewership. Just a few weeks back, the ratings were sittin’ at about 1.4 million on average. But now? Well, the show’s pullin’ in more folks, and that’s what’s important, ain’t it? The more viewers, the more likely the show keeps goin’ strong.
And let me tell ya, there’s a lotta folks talkin’ behind the scenes too. People who watch them numbers closely, like them pro wrestling folks and them Nielsen report folks. They’re all checkin’ in on how WWE Raw is doin’, week in and week out. The folks who do the numbers, they’re all excited ‘bout the ratings going up, ‘cause it means WWE’s doin’ somethin’ right. One of the big reasons for this? Well, you got them big stars like The Best in the World and the Apex Predator. They sure do bring in the crowd, don’t they?
Another thing that’s been helpin’ out is that WWE’s kept it more family-friendly. While the show’s still rated TV-PG, it’s not too kiddy. They’ve found a good balance that works for everybody, no matter their age. Some folks might think the “PG era” is on its way out, but let me tell ya, that’s not happenin’ anytime soon. They got themselves a good little setup, and it’s workin’ out just fine for them.
In fact, just last month in September, WWE Raw outperformed what it did last year at the same time. That’s right – it did better than it did in 2023, thanks to some fresh new faces and more exciting matches. That little bump in ratings, it don’t come outta nowhere, that’s for sure. The show’s been mixin’ up the content, bringin’ in new angles, and that’s keepin’ people interested.
Now, the folks over at Wrestlenomics, they’ve been keepin’ track of all them numbers too, and they say that WWE Raw averaged about 1.465 million viewers recently. And with that 0.48 rating in the 18 to 49 demographic, they’re on the up-and-up. More viewers and a better demo rating, that’s what all them folks in the business are hopin’ for.
But, hey, it ain’t all about the big numbers. It’s also about the trends, right? How things are lookin’ over time. And WWE Raw’s been climbin’ steadily. Since they cut the show down to two hours, the viewership’s been sittin’ nice at about 1.5 million on average. That’s a pretty solid number for any TV show, much less one where folks are tossin’ each other around like that.
And let’s not forget about the ratings breakdown. Now, they might not always get the attention they deserve, but when them ratings go up, you can bet WWE’s payin’ attention. They’re always watchin’ how each episode does, and those little improvements, like that 5% rise we saw in viewership, that all adds up to somethin’ big. It’s like anythin’ in life – a little bit here and there, and before you know it, you got somethin’ real special.
So, if you’re askin’ me, it looks like WWE Raw’s in a good spot. They got the viewers, they got the stars, and they’re keepin’ the show fresh. Who knows what next week’s ratings will bring, but for now, things are lookin’ pretty darn good for the ol’ wrestling show. And you can bet folks will keep comin’ back to watch it all unfold week after week.
