The first post-WWE Draft edition of SmackDown Live drew a 1.92 final cable rating on Tuesday evening, averaging 2.743 million viewers for the two-hour show.
By comparison, last week’s show, which was the first episode of the new weekly live format on Tuesday nights, averaged 3.170 million viewers for the show devoted to the WWE Draft that determined each brands new, exclusive talent rosters.
The first episode of SmackDown Live beat RAW in viewership last week and while RAW out-drew SmackDown Live this week, the numbers for last night’s show are still pretty strong, all things considered.
